Came on a Tuesday night, and ordered a bowl of Bun Bo Hue ($15). My order was ready in under 5mins,…read moreand the cashier was very friendly. I only ever get BBH in Bellaire, so $15 was a little pricey to me but I will say it was very good. Broth was very flavorful and hearty. It was a large bowl, with plenty of meat. I was stuffed after finishing it. Came with the standard cabbage, bean sprouts, jalapeños already in the bowl. Not sure if the beef meatballs are made in house, but they were so good compared to the standard ones I've had before. You can also add extra ribeye slices for $3.

My favorite soup here to order. Bossam: I think this is their best item. The pork belly is sliced very clean and thin. It's boiled to perfection. Very addicting to eat as you continue to make more and more lettuce wraps. Galbi: pretty standard. Didn't blow me away but it's good enough to satisfy me. Better off going to a KBBQ restaurant for this. Jokbal: not pictured here but I would skip this dish. I got tired of it pretty quickly. The meat is a bit dry. Their side dishes are pretty solid as well! I like their kimchi. The call button on their tables is very useful. Decorated very nicely inside and the servers are friendly.

Servers dressed up and ready to serve ginormous portions of whatever you want for breakfast or lunch. Bring a large appetite. Large size sweet and sour pickles come 1st to table . Fresh squeezed juice as flavorful as ones we had on Amalfi coast. Signature Reuben served open or closed with thousand island dressing and extra sauerkraut was large enough to share for the boys. Their signature chicken soup with a bagel chip was served steamy hot as we like it. Even has the world largest chocolate Eclair filled with bavariancreme and topped with chocolate. This place would be popular in S. Florida and very happy is here for the locals. Looking forward to a return.

You are immediately transported into New York for sure! Along with New York, we got the schmucks attitude from the 2 men playing hosts. It was a non-busy Sunday night and these two wanted to sit my underage son and I at the bar. Really?! They were obnoxious and rude and put us on a wait list when there clearly were tables. However, my waiter and even the kitchen staff made up for that hiccup with their wonderful attitudes and service! As always, love the broadway decor and music- plus the tables and chairs set the nostalgia.

Pork Bao's are normally my daughter fave but the soup dumplings here are her favorite. She could finish an order on her own. The service is always great. As soon as you get in they give everyone a water and a carafe of more water. There is a QR code to order and you place your order on the phone. The order goes straight to the kitchen and you can add as you go if wanted. I always thought that was pretty cool. The owner came out to say hello and ask how everything is. She even brought out a small bowl of soup for my baby to enjoy. The waitress was also very sweet and attentive. I don't live close by but will make the trip when the craving hits. Today was one of those days. The last time I was here there was no ac and not enough seating. This time it was nice and cool in and well as having new seating! This little spot needs to be on your need to stop places!

Try them, I love a good Asian style wing sauce and this hits the nail on the head with what I am looking for when I think of Asian style. No notes. Would order just these 9.3/10. Beef carpaccio is not something I would order again. I don't really care for carpaccio to be fair. 6/10. Shaken beef had great flavor, but it was less beef cubs and more big beef chunks. Flavor was excellent, but the beef should be in smaller bites. 7.7/10. The stuffed crab pocket was unlike anything I have ever tried. Great seafood taste in the inside, crispy shell. 8.7/10. The calamari squid dish was nice. Flavor was good. Fresh ingredients. 7.2/10. Drinks and services were really the standout here. Super friendly staff and fun Thai drinks. Cute location and seating. 9.6/10.

I don't see many places that specialize on udon. Ishin does it well with a big variety of udon…read moredishes from Japanese to Italian inspired and soups to curries. It's a small and cozy place that can get packed around peak hours. I got the beef curry udon with a side of tonkatsu. The tonkatsu was tender and crunchy and made an excellent addition to the soft and creamy udon. The curry was one of my favorites I've tried so far, a generous, flavorful helping that wasn't overly salty or spicy. They also gave a good amount of tender sliced beef as well. If you're out looking for udon specifically, this place has all sorts of good options for you to choose from.

Not many restaurants in Houston offer Takowasa, which is marinated raw octopus with wasabi; and when we find one that does, it's our must order for appetizers. We also ordered the chicken karaage and agedashi tofu. The karaage was juicy and slightly larger than the size of popcorn chicken. The tofu was soft and lightly battered, however the downside is that it gets soggy quickly since it's sitting in the sauce rather than on the side. For our entrees, we got the carbonara, curry tonkatsu rice, niku tama ankake, and kakuni udon. The carbonara was nice and creamy. The curry rice tastes exactly like the Japanese box curry. The niku tama is more of a thicker soup base similar to egg drop soup, however has a more slightly sweet umami flavor. The kakuni udon had a lighter broth with braised pork belly. The service was a bit slow here, but we didn't mind it too much. The interior had a cute traditional Japanese style decor. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and we'll be back to try other udons.

Wow! Just... wow…read more Loved this place from the moment I walked in! Ambiance was super fun and welcoming. The tubs of ice filled with cold drinks all around as you approach the counter was casual and fun. And the staff was welcoming and friendly. The menu had so much variety, without being overwhelming. Anything from a good pazole, to a brisket Rueben, to an American Italian sandwich! I got the báhn mì sandwich, which was bursting with flavor! The pork was seasoned well and had good flavor from the marinade. The cilantro, pickled onions, jalapeno, all were so fresh and vibrant! And I was able to get homemade chips and fresh strawberries as my side - such a refreshing bite the strawberries after a rich, porky, spicy bite from the sandwich. Can't say enough good! Loved this place and would go back in a heartbeat!

A big part of the decades long success at Local Foods has been their commitment to consistency…read more Their casual setting with excellent service is one thing, but quality executed food that is simple and seasonal will always go a long way. Before their recent expansions to Austin, it all began here in Rice Village exactly 15 years ago. The vibes are contemporary and casual, with the kind of space that fits for just about any scenario. Whether it's a solo meal, a lunch date, or a group led affair, the experience is almost always an excellent one. Start by ordering at the counter and find a seat where the food will brought directly to the table. So much of their variety caters to all sorts of dietary restrictions from vegan to gluten free to nut free. Their spicy crispy brussels sprouts ($10) are a nice starter, as is the squash "onion" rings ($12). The local power bowl ($16) is a classic and I've always enjoyed the brown rice and quinoa combo. Their chicken "posolé" is solid, and I love the large hominy bits along with the clear but green tint of a broth. The chicken shawarma bowl ($20) is an interesting mix that includes pickled beets and strawberries, along with their market cheddar burger ($17) and fabulous twice cooked fries. The carrot cupcake is strangely addicting, and I think their gluten free brownie is a bit of a sleeper. Some of their items didn't jive with me previously, such as an underwhelming cashew queso ($9), a semi-laughable Vietnamese steak bowl ($22), and their semi-gringo version of a banh mi ($15). It's not that these items are bad per se, but they definitely don't live up to the same standard that I feel their other dishes do best. Where they hit the biggest home run is their customer service. Everyone working behind the counter does their best to deliver and they almost always do by staying on top of refills, cleanups, and customer greets. I've always enjoyed my experiences here and look forward to every visit.
