Mi Hoanh Thanh Xa Xiu - Wonton Noodle Soup W/Bbq Pork
Bryan V.

I'm usually skeptical of Vietnamese restaurants in the Heights, but this place impressed me. I ordered a wonton noodle soup with bbq pork and was surprised by how similar it tasted to comparable restaurants in Bellaire. The soup was solid, plenty of wontons and pork, and a generous serving of noodles. Good choices for toppings and sauces on the side. My friend's pho noodles were a bit undercooked unfortunately. The restaurant is a little small, so depending on the time you might have to wait for a table.

Stop by here on a late Saturday night, we were seated right away with no wait. There's a designated lot for parking. The inside is small but plenty of tables. Pho hits differently when you're starving and it's late so this was a perfect occasion to get some. You can order at the counter and the food will be brought to you. We all opted for the pho dac biet/special. Come with brisket, meatballs, filet mignon, and fatty brisket. I prefer my beef on the side so it's medium rare. Good portion but upon tasting the broth, I found it to be bland from what I would like for pho. The pho noodles got soggy very quickly. Overall, this is a good spot for something late at night but not what I was expecting.

Hu Tieu Do Bien - Seafood Noodle Soup
Taletha W.

Firstly, very nice vibe when walking in. We were greeted instantly. I think the gentleman at the register assumed we were dining in. We were ordering to go. I saw the menu on Yelp prior to arriving, so i knew what i wanted. I ordered the, Hu Tieu Do Bien - Seafood Noodle Soup, To-Go Order. In the Bag - Bean Sprout, sliced Jalapeño, lime, and Basil leaves. In the Bowl - Noodle, 2 Shrimp, fish balls cut in half, imitation crap cut into chunks, cilantro, green onion, thinly sliced white onion, and fried/crispy onion. Chili sauce and 2 packets of Hoisin Sauce on the side. The bowl was very good. This was also my 2nd time eating Pho. So i enjoyed it very much. It was enough to feed both me and my partner. Thanks again. We will definitely be back

First time ever having Pho and I really enjoyed what I got. I ordered a winter melon tea, mini egg rolls, and the brisket pho. I thought the broth and brisket were super delicious. The sauce what came with the egg rolls was different but tasty. The winter melon tea a little too sugary but overall good. I would definitely come back here!

Nut allergy friendly: They do have a peanut sauce served with the spring rolls. I'd also be careful with the chili sauce. Otherwise, pho is totally safe. I ordered this as a late night option and was so surprised by how good it was that I took two more friends the next day to confirm. Lo and behold, this might be one of the best pho spots inside the Loop, and definitely the best late night weekend option! Warning: Taking the pho to go, you are EXPECTED to boil the broth when you get home. This is how you cook the thin raw meat and the slightly uncooked noodles. I actually really respect that they give you slightly firm noodles with this expectation. Do not believe the reviews that say that the noodles are undercooked. The pho broth here is very flavorful and rich, though slightly oily. Meat is sliced thinly and all meet expectations in tenderness. I'd say the brisket gets a little tough, but isn't bad at all. Portions are large and filling. What more can you ask for? Don't let the funny name fool you. This pho is great.

Bug in my soup
Pretty B.

I walked into the joint, and at first glance, it was lookin' pretty tidy and had a charming vibe. But man, I've got a bone to pick with how they responded when I spotted this bug floating around in my soup. Not even so much as an "oops" or "we're sorry" from them! The dude just offered up another bowl like it's no big deal. Honestly, I'd have appreciated if they'd let me choose whether I wanted my money back or maybe get a fresh dish. So there I am sitting down again big mistake and bam! Three bugs on the lettuce under where my egg rolls lay. When I pointed that out to them, instead of being nice about it, they gave me attitude like Im the problem. And talk about rude the cashier basically slapped my refund into my hand without uttering a peep. No type of Apologize at all! Let me tell you Im not ever stepping foot in this gross place again! Seriously thinking 'bout ringing up the health inspectors for sure!

Pho Tai

Decent pho close to the house. Not a very large menu but the flavor is good and it seems like quality ingredients.

this place is so good!! i get the vegan pho and the vegan fried dumplings, and even getting the regular leaves me with plenty of pho left over. the mushroom broth is so flavorful too.

Pho King Beef - Beef Noodle Soup
Samantha A.

I had such high hopes for this place! It had great staff upon entering. Sadly, I found a strand of hair in my food rather quickly. :( The food was delicious nonetheless but it was disappointing to find that in my meal.

Fatty Brisket + Meatballs + Quail Eggs
Alexus N.

I had a mad craving for pho and have wanted to try their bone marrow pho. Unfortunately the bone marrow was sold out :( This is almost like a "fast-casual". Which makes sense for the area it's located in. You'll need to order at the register first, pay and then have a seat. They'll bring out the food for you. I very much enjoyed my pho! I like the a la carte options that you can add. I selected quail eggs and shrimp balls in addition to the fatty brisket and meatballs. Yummms. I didn't care for the fried dumplings. The wrapper was a little thick and doughy, the filling was bland and the dipping sauce wasn't hittin'. What a bummer! The staff is more than welcoming and attentive. I will def be back to try that bone marrow pho!

This is a top favorite of mine,I've been a regular for over a year and they never disappoint I…read morebring my friends and family and they've all loved it, I love that they use local and fresh ingredients and you can tell in the quality of the flavor and the richness. The drinks are also good coffee and the bar section is solid. I used to finish my running (walking trail right in front) and stop by for a coffee or full breakfast. The patio area is my favorite if Houston's weather is blessing us I'm always sitting outside I usually get the CRUNCHY" CHICKEN sandwich with either side of Pozole or the chips so crispy and made in the moment. I've had other items the burger the salad the salmon they've always been fees and flavorful, I cannot recommend one thing because everything tastes great! Best place for a cute date or get together with friends family this place has it all! Check out their seasonal items they're always changing and they absolutely worth trying ****** GREEN POZOLE!!' I was surprised on how good it was sorry for doubting it's now my too favorite pozole in Houston ****** (approved by a Mexican ajuaaa )

Always delicious and always fresh. I usually get the crunchy chicken sandwich but got the steak…read moresandwich instead. So delicious! Steak bowl was also good. Children's chicken and veggies was huge!

Wow. Glad we checked this out while in the r Galleria area. We saw this restaurant on TV as a top…read morerated NY deli. Lots of seating, great wait staff, and the sandwiches are gigantic--as they should be for the price. $30 for a sandwich on average. We split an open face pastrami (which they brought an extra plate) and we are glad we did. The potato salad is tiny. Too much sandwich for one but not enough potato salad for two! The pickles they provide before your sandwich arrives are yummy- not like a traditional out of the bar pickle. These are what I remember from NYC. Garlic and not sweet. We also had the apple pie alamode. Also pricey and gigantic. It was warm and delicious. Glad we tried this icon. We went at lunch and they get quite the crowd. You are not rushed at all. You can even take some bakery items to go--if you are too full to eat there. Amazing selection of cookies, rugala, black and white cookies and more.

Highly recommend: Carrot cake…read moreCheese cake Rugelah Eclair (enormous) Pastrami Salads Round baked potato knish Matzoh ball soup Salmon Egg salad Ruben Lindino tacos Blintzes (made like a dessert) Etc. so much good food to choose.

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.

Fabulous!! I was told by my colleague friends that this place was awesome and perfect for someone…read morelike me who is now both dairy free and (mostly) gluten free. After meetings we met and had a long lunch sitting outside on one of the two lovely patios. It was comfortable on a beautiful day. The person who took the order was very friendly and so was the manager who came around to check on our meal. One friend had the Thai steak salad and I had the veggie burger made with quinoa, beets and other vegetables. Wow...is what I will say!!! It was so flavorful and the focaccia bun (not gluten free) was incredible! Plus the double cooked fries were delicious! Oh, the side potato salad and kale salad were also delicious! I look forward to being back there next time I'm in Houston!!
