Food would be pretty darn good with sriracha but unfortunately they dont carry it. DAMNIT Melange, was hoping you were gonna be one of the survivors read more

Worst. Noodles. Ever. No flavor. Over cooked (one was crunchy...). Egg roll was very good though. Wouldn't go back. read more

This place was really good. I wasn't expecting to eat here. I was meant to eat somewhere else, but changed plans last minute. I'm glad I did. I got the beef pho. The broth and beef were delicious. I had to leave early and leave the rest of my broth behind, which sucked. It was hard to part with. It was one of the best bowls of pho I've had read more

Calling out all lovers of Canh Chua! Now you know what that is, come try it here. Today was a great day to have Canh Chua Cá since the weather in Houston is ridiculous but in all honesty I'm not complaining. The Canh Chua was amazing. It reminded me of my childhood when I grandma used to make it. I highly reccomend this place. read more

We've been here twice and the food has been delicious both times! It's not exactly a place you go for ambiance but the value and taste of the food is amazing. Highly recommend the viet house rice, crab fried rice (comes with little crab claws) and authentic pad Thai. I think this mom and pop shop is definitely worth trying especially if you're craving some late night food! read more

Easy to miss but you don't want to miss it. Food is SO good. Get the sweet and sour chicken! The food comes out fast as well.

Parking is great, service is great, hence two stars and not 0. Food was so bland and mediocre for the price range. We got Viet egg rolls, Lemongrass tofu, and Pad Thai. The eggrolls were 7/10, I'll give them props for using the spring roll paper which is what you'd expect for an authentic vietnamese style eggrolls. Lemongrass tofu barely had any lemongrass, I couldn't see nor taste the fragrance that lemongrass dishes have. On top of that, my plate was filled with onions and other obscure veggies, barely any tofu, and I'm a petite asian girl that usually cannot finish her food. My bf ordered Pad Thai, thinking "you can't go wrong with pad Thai", but was disappointed when the noodle came out with barely any sauce and lacking in flavor, not to mention the noodle had this odd taste like it has been sitting out for a while. read more

This is supposed to be chicken pad thai...I was excited about this spot being within walking distance from me but this is not a good first experience. read more

Me'lange - Pad Thai - Vietnamese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Hit the Accelerator the moment you make eye contact with their storefront signage. A very unfortunate dining Pho-lop. The Skinny: The only reason I came here is because Mai's was closed and Kim Son wasn't worth the extra gas at $2.75/gal. I looked up this wallet-parasite on Yelp and it had 4 stars and was close by to where I was so I rolled the dice and ended up on snake eyes at a craps table. Valet only-lol, Strike 1. Valet at a Vietnamese restaurant? That's like having live Maine lobster at Long John Silvers. Just dumb. The Food: I ordered 2 Pork spring rolls. Presentation was good but it was a little chewy so I opened up the roll and noticed 50% of the piece of pork inside the roll was pure fat and the roll itself had a greasy flavor bc of all the fat. Just gross. I ordered the grilled chicken over rice as my entree. No disclosure anywhere on the menu that it's only dark meat. So I receive a plate full of grilled, cheap thigh meat drenched in oil over rice. I don't think the rice was cooked in boiling water rather it drowned in a hot oil bath provided by the cheap chicken. Curiously there was a fried egg over medium just chillin' on the Northwest corner of the plate. I'm not sure what it was doing there but it looked out of place like Vince Young in an office building. So $23 later, I had a plate of grease, greasy spring rolls an iced tea and tip. Didn't get to try the Pho and never will. Truly pho-rgettable. Stay away! read more

Arrived at around 2:30 am and was first greeting by someone who I'm assuming was the manager who implied us to get togo and then finally just let us dine in. An eager waiter took our order which we were very appreciative of him he was kind for it being almost 3 am. Then our table was being prebussed by a young man named Jamaal. He continued to bring out the rest of our food, give us drink refills, etc. He was a prime example of excellent service, as someone who's been in the industry for several years it's so nice to see a fresh face eager to learn and work hard. The food was okay at best but based on the experience we had with Jamaal I can say I would give it another try at an appropriate hour read more

Months ago the food was good and the service acceptable. More recently the quality of the food continued to slip .... inconsistent portion size and taste. Taste and spice level depends who is in the kitchen. Service depends on which waiter and it seems like very high turnover. I called twice to talk to the owner about no the food and service. Neither call was returned so here is my feedback. Last visit I asked my partner how his food was and he responded to me that is wasn't good. I said mine wasn't good either. An attempt to give feedback fell on deaf ears as they do t seem to care. I prefer to dine in a restaurant that may not be great but is interested in improving. My previous meals were at best inconsistent as I ordered the same dish. Time to drive on past read more

MUST TRY!!! Love how extremely fresh the pho is here! Thai shrimp fried rice is delicious! All the vegetables are fresh. Limes are just cut. The best I've had in Houston hands down!!! If you dine in, everyone is extremely super nice and there's always a chill and peaceful! SUPER CLEAN which is important and they have nice decor and support local artists. Fairly priced. I can't say anything bad about this place. Great business all the way around! :) read more

This place was absolutely incredible. Food was delicious and staff is so friendly! I've come multiple times and sampled multiple dishes (one of which I left to the chef's recommendation) and they were all amazing. read more

My girlfriend and I was on our way back home late in the evening on a Tuesday and decided we wanted a bite to eat. Found Me'lange on yelp not far out of our way. We were greeted with smiles and quick service once we steeped thru the door. Our server Josue offered us complimentary wine before we had a chance to order our food. We ordered Thai fried chicken, happy family and egg rolls. The food was as awesome as the service was. Would highly recommend anyone passing thru or living close to stop in. read more

I've ordered delivery from Me'lange a number of times, and it's usually good. I'm not sure what happened this last time, but my pho didn't smell like pho, and it didn't have the lovely, complex flavor pho usually has. It tasted like salty water. Maybe it was an off night? Nonetheless, I wound up tossing it out, and it'll be a while before I can think about ordering it again. read more

Great spot to dine in for any of your late night cravings! Just got out the club? Make your way down here! Best fried rice in town! I am obsessed with the Me'lange special fried rice with squid, roe, crab claws, and shrimp! Paired with their house made chili oil sauce? It's a pair that can't be competed with. Their wonton soup is also top notch. We had the tamarind wings and those were good too. The restaurant itself is also very clean and service was professional. read more

Great menu. Terrific variety from many Asian options. Healthy to indulgent options. Great service. Super clean and stylish. Highly recommend. read more

I love the foods at this restaurant , I tried almost all the dishes here. The foods are so yummy and fresh , clean restaurant . Also . It opens late near down town. Super convenient. Thanks to Me'lange. read more

We have visited thIs relatively new eatery several times. Service has always been good; however, the food quality has been mixed.. Depending on the cook, the food is either extremely fresh and tasty or NOT! They seem to do a lot of takeout business because the dine in crowd has been very sparse when we visit. I hope this place gets things lined out and improve the consistency in the kitchen. read more

Recently ordered food through Uber Eats and the sweet and sour chicken was soggy (and came in large strips), egg drop soup was too sweet, and crispy shrimp was very plain and not crispy. The chicken fried rice was good though. read more

Amazing food and friendly, attentive service! Everything was flavorful, hot and fresh. Delicious coffee too. Awesome possum.

Bought the house friend rice. Tasted like nothing but butter and lots and lots of pepper. For the price and reviews I expected better quality food. Will most likely not be returning. read more

First, Me'lange messed up my order. Poor attention to detail. Normally, this would not be a big deal, we're all human beings and we're not perfect. However, when I called the restaurant, the said they got the order right. When presented with the delivery receipt and the Grubhub receipt, they told me to call back in 5 minutes while they tracked down the driver. After calling twice they finally passed the buck on to Grubhub and told me to appeal for a refund from them. They cared not and made no effort to try redeem themselves - putting the cost on another business. It was a pretty shameless...doesn't seem like this is the first time from other reviews. The food itself would barely be 3 stars. The clay pot fish seemed more like it was boiled vs stewed in any clay pot. read more

The service was wonderful and the food was AMAZING. The atmosphere is nice and cozy and I would definitely recommend all my friends to come. They are opened really late Monday-Saturday, so it's the perfect place to go after a night out drinking or if you get off late from work! read more

My experience is through Uber Eats. Ordered beef pho, soft shell crab, beef fried rice. I requested "extra extra" sriracha since I don't have any. I was provided with none except for the sriracha that is pre mixed with the hoison sauce for the pho. However the hoison to sriracha ratio is off. How am I supposed to eat pho with 2 drops of sriracha? Also I wasn't provided a spoon with my pho. I guess i'll just slurp my broth from the bowl then. Pho was ok, but there's better pho that isn't $11. Beef fried rice was meh, you really can't mess up fried rice. My boyfriend ordered the soft shell crab and for $20 we only got 3 tiny soft shell crabs. My boyfriend took only 3 bites from his food and didn't eat anymore because it wasn't good, and he's not really a picky eater and usually thinks everything is good. 3 items came out to be around $50. This is ridiculously expensive but at the same time understandable since the area we are in doesn't have a lot of Vietnamese food, but at least make the food up to par with the cost. Don't think i'll be returning. Save your money and drive to bellaire for cheaper and authentic vietnamese food! read more

Very good find. Generous portions. Open late. Could not find anything wrong with the food, the flavors are very well balanced and delicious, which is something i'm picky about at asian restaurants. It may not be very "authentic" as those certain extremes of flavor may be original to each culture, but i am not a native of any asian countries, nor am I a connoisseur of asian cuisine, so I could not tell you what's right and wrong. All I can say as an American consumer and lover of all foods, is that your money will NOT be wasted here. read more

This place is pretty close by to me in the Montrose area and I finally decided to try it out. Ordered "Thai House Fried Rice" to-go and thought it was honestly just okay. Portion size was very good, but it just lacked the WOW factor that most Thai fried rice has and the fundamental flavor we all know and love. As I'm writing this I'm just now realizing "why did I order something Thai from a Vietnamese place?" Well, I'm sure they put it on their menu for a reason but it just didn't do it for me. Will I be back..? Probably not, but give this place a try! Also, just by scanning their menu it looks like some prices are pretty jacked up for Viet/Chinese/Thai food. read more

We order the pho and pad Thai through Uber eats pretty late. The food was amazing. The bowl of pho was huge. I got two thumbs up from my boyfriend for the Pad Thai and the spring rolls did not disappoint. I'll definitely be ordering here again. read more

(4-6-19), TICKET #T4, TIME 5:41 PMOur first and absolutely our LAST visit to Melange Vietnamese restaurant. We had to ask for silverware, we had to ask for salt and pepper, we had to ask for soy sauce. In addition when I asked for napkins, the waiter only gives me one (1), not even a dinner napkin. I asked a 3rd time, he said, "we are trying to conserve napkins. I have orders to go". Needless to say, my rating was and will be a "1 star". I would rate it less, but the utility will not allow this action. I told the waiter, he argued and raised his voice at me. I told him, "if you want to conserve, why don't you just close the front door for business and conserve on all the business has to offer. Substandard service and food was insipid. Meat (beef) is TOUGH. DO NOT VISIT ME'LANGE VIETNAMESE RESTAURANT. read more

I am giving 2 stars based on hours of operation, location and ambiance. Came in after a show at House of Blues cause we wanted some late night Pho. Only one other couple was seated. Waited was pleasantly friendly. My daughter and I were famished so we gave him outlet complete order. Spring rolls, crab puffs, sweet Thai wings and beef broth pho. He comes back to tell us there are no crab puffs and gives us the menu to order something else. We let him know it's fine, we'll just take the rest of our order. Waited 10 minutes for the spring rolls. They were meh. Mostly mostly vermicelli, not much else. My wings come. Pleasantly surprised with the added veggies. Then the man who I assume is the manager comes to tell us he thinks they don't have any beef broth. Uhhhhhhhh. He offers my daughter the menu and leaves back to the kitchen. He returns and tells us that there is beef broth and they just got a new chef. The "Pho" comes out when I'm almost done with my wings. Waiter comes and says something about chicken (broken English) and I say yes cause I thought he was acknowledging my wings. He brings me a soup spoon. I let him know I did not order Pho. He acts shocked. Goes back to the kitchen and we can hear him (everyone can) saying SHE DOESN'T WANT THE CHICKEN AFTER ALL, in such a way like I changed my mind. I hate Pho. I never would have ordered it in the first place. My daughter in the other hand eats it once a week. She makes a face after the first spoonful. I try some. THIS IS NOT PHO. I have one wing left, I offer it to her. She takes a bite. THERE IS A HAIR. We both initially think it's just part of the chicken but NOPE... not this curly monstrosity. Call the waiter over to show it to him. He takes it back to the kitchen. Manager comes over and asks if we need anything else. Ummmmmm nope can we talk about the hair? He tries to tell us it was just part of the chicken. Nope nope nope. I've worked in kitchens, went to culinary school... that was human hair homie. He tells us not to worry about the bill. That was the highlight... that we didn't pay for the food. I would have paid for the spring rolls but glad I didn't. Maybe it was the full moon. Maybe it was just a bad day for everyone there but that place was OFF. It's overpriced and poorly managed. Choose something else to eat late night... and damn me for not taking a picture of the hair! read more

The vermicelli and shrimp bowl, pad thai, and fried banana and i e cream dessert were all delicious! The service was exceptional and the ambiance was perfect! This was my first time visiting and I was extremely pleased and impressed! read more

This place just opened a few weeks ago so we decided to try the restaurant. When we first walked in the staff was very attentive and right away told us to sit where we like. The staff are wonderful but the food is very good. The general tso chicken was lightly breaded and was white meat inside. My friend got the pad Thai and had lots of flavor. I definitely will be back to try there other dishes they have. read more

Me'lange is a welcome addition to the area! Absolutely go for the fusion dishes-- They're fire! The traditional items are decent compared to similar restaurants and some of these items, e.g. the beef pho broth, not traditional to it's cuisine style. read more

What can I say about the amazing wait staff here? First of all, Leon is the best server I've ever met. The food here is impeccable. I've been vegan for 6 years and the black pepper tofu is amazing. It's a small place but it feels really cozy and bright. The food comes out quickly, and is hot and fresh. read more

I'm going to be completely honest I was very skeptical about trying this place due to fact that my boyfriends' family is Vietnamese, so I'm use to traditional tasting Vietnamese food. Boy, am I glad I tried this place out! The beef pho broth was delicious!!! It is probably the best pho I've had at a restaurant, and pretty up there with homemade pho! I also love that this place is open after hours! read more

This place was amazing! We had the veggie pot stickers, Singapore noodles, abd the lemongrass chicken. I was scraping the plate with my chicken, and my vegetarian husband was singing his noodles's praises! The manager and waitress were incredibly friendly, abd when we had a bit of a wait for our food, we were comped dessert. They have late night hours every day (Monday-Thursday till 3 am, Thursday- Sunday till 4 am), and it seems like a great after hours place similar to Mai's. We'll definitely be back! read more
