    Pho

    Pho dien was good! One start off for the soup. I do feel it was better the first time we went here. Could be an off day. Soup was still solid though. Don't get me wrong. The best part was the meaty quality. Meat was very tender and not chewy so they def have a good cut or it's fresh.

    I will drive 40 minutes to have pho in the morning here! That says alot its so fresh and so good! It does get packed here and there but that just goes to show theyre doing something right! The portions are huge and the staff are cool people!

    Service was great - attentive, helpful, and friendly. Parking isn't too bad because it's in a small plaza. However, pho broth could be more flavorful and rich. Note that there may be homeless who might come in and stop by your table.

    Hands down the best pho--service is fast and the staff is consistently so kind and welcoming!

    We had a meal here. Food very good. Highly recommend. We had pho, vermicelli, spring rolls or egg rolls and strawberry banana smoothie. Very nice experience. Good number of people. Pleasant noise level. Not loud. Excellent customer service. Staff very nice. Gracious

    This time around, I got to meet the owner and I wish I hadn't... I got to the restaurant, having driven 45 minutes just for this chili oil. (Needless to say, yes, its worth it, and yes, it's that good.) I went to the counter and let the owner know that I'd like to purchase a container of chili oil. She confirms the order, I nod, then excused myself to the bathroom. When I came back to the counter, another worker asked me what I needed and I told him I was waiting for the chili oil. When the owner came out of the kitchen, the server asked her in Vietnamese if she had gotten the chili oil yet. She replies "Why would I make it for that girl when she hasn't even paid yet?" She walked over to me, closed me out at $10... then turned to the worker and spoke in Vietnamese again to say "Tell her she's going to have to wait." I was shocked by the stark contrast of the attitude and customer service that she gave in comparison to her husband. First of all, I'm Vietnamese, I can understand you, there's no need for that. Secondly, and this is what kills me, she didn't think I was good for... a whopping $10. I kept in mind that it took time to prepare the chili oil from my last purchase. Hence why I placed the order first, then excused myself to the bathroom. At this restaurant, the food is served first. After the patron is done, they pay out later. I don't understand why it was such a big deal to prepare the order first while I excused myself for a couple minutes. I also didn't understand why the owner seemed so irritable throughout this interaction. Maybe she was having a bad day, who knows? Either way, I have to admit this experience has tainted my excitement for this restaurant.

    This is the beef provided for a large pho

    This place has really good Pho. I have been going there regularly 1to 2xs a week for quite some time. Lately they've been skimping on the beef in the pho! After today's order, I will no longer give them my money. When I got my order home today, this is what I got for $20.00! I feel ripped off. I will have to go to this other Pho establishment on the NW side (Pho Viet Tastes) where I get 3 times the amount of meat for the same price.

    I love Phò for breakfast. Phò Dien is open by 9am perfect time to fill that belly with some rich broth. The service was friendly and the Phò was pretty good. I even took another order to go. The iced coffee was great too. Sometimes it's too sweet but Phò Dien 1960 gets it right. My only complaint was the TV wasn't on so I kinda just stared at the walls or staff while waiting.

    Short and simple: this is my all time favorite Vietnamese spot! Speedy service and a great selection of food and drink. I'm always satisfied when leaving this establishment, you have a lifetime customer!

    Very friendly sweet staff but pho was only ok, a tad bland not super Viet authentic. Overpriced too: $19ish before tax and tip!!

    This is my favorite Pho spot in all of Houston and trust me I've tried many spots. Fresh ingredients and flavorful broth.

    This Pho tastes just like home. Authentic, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!

    This is the best pho in town ever!!!! It's so flavorful and rich

Inside is clean, bright and welcoming. good amount of tables for dining in. The Pho was a decent size bowl. The noodles were warm and not a clump at the bottom of the bowl, which happens a lot at Pho shops when they just throw some noodles at the bottom of the bowl and pour Pho on top of it. Very deep beef flavor which all the accompanying spices you're looking for in a good Pho/ The Banh Mi was very good as well. Bread was nice and crusty, yet soft in the middle and had ample amount of actual meet in the sandwich. If you're around the area and looking for good Pho, definitely give this place a shot, you wont be disappointed.

It's very flavorful and really one of my favorite places to eat at. The restaurant is clean and is fairly quiet except for the background music they play lol They have lots of seating and it's never super packed.

    A friend and I were visiting Houston for a few days and were looking to binge on good Indian food…read morethat texan Indians are always boasting about. This place didn't disappoint. We ate our hearts out and enjoyed every dish we ordered. We started with goat bone soup which took me back to my childhood when we used to eat at the dhabas on the highways during our family trips. It tasted exactly the same, peppery spicy and delicious! We also had veg kal dosa, cut mirchi and gongura mutton curry. Cut mirchi was so delicately made and it melted in my mouth. Dosas were great with the gongura mutton. The quantities were generous and prices were reasonable for the quality. Service was awesome! I am officially jealous of the people who could eat this food whenever they want to.

    1/5 Stars - By far the worst Indian dining experience I've had in recent memory. I would give this…read morerating less than 1 star if that was an option. Here's the summary: Subpar Food - Entirely lacked authentic flavor; tandoori chicken arrived lukewarm (tasting microwaved), and "extra hot" korma had zero spice or taste. Inattentive Service - Required flagging down staff just to place an initial order. Hidden Charges - Unlabeled table water bottles were covertly billed without prior disclosure. Questionable Payment Practices - Staff demanded blind payment on a card reader, refusing to show an itemized bill beforehand until insistence forced them to cancel the screen. If you'd like to know more: The food lacked any authentic flavor or expected preparation. The tandoori chicken, usually served sizzling on a hot plate (my experience at other Indian restaurants), arrived lukewarm, tasting as though it had simply been microwaved. Both the korma and the dishes requested at an "extra hot" spice level were entirely devoid of flavor and heat. Service was equally disappointing, requiring us to flag down a waiter just to place an initial order. Compounding the poor experience, two bottles of water left on the table were billed at $1 each without any prior disclosure or mention from the staff. Most concerning was the payment process: the waiter presented a card scanner with a total, refusing to provide an itemized bill beforehand and stating we could only see it after paying. (Only after insisting did the waiter cancel the payment screen so I could review the charges). Between the subpar food, inattentive service, and questionable billing practices, this establishment feels shady and untrustworthy. I cannot recommend it and will not be returning.
