    You guys!! This is the spot. There's plenty of pho places nearby. This spot is family owned. The young man at the counter gives amazing service. The sandwiches are amazing and the pho is delicious. Love local business that value service!

    This is the best pho in Houston. The broth is amazing. I've had pho from all over and this hits the spot. The waiter and his mother always bring the flavor!

    A roach

    If it was possible for me to leave 0 stars I would. My sister went after work (45 minute drive from where we live) to enjoy pho (she's been to this place plenty of times before today and loved it until today's experience) she got there ordered her food and drink. When she received her drink she saw a German roach and refused to finish her meal or drink. The worker/ manager came over and took her drink and offered her a new one as well as new food however once seeing the roach she no longer wanted to be serviced there. My sister requested the whole thing be comped. The pregnant lady Thi refused to comp anything besides the drink. My sister became upset and refused to pay. Thi then told her she had to stay till the cops showed up if she was refusing to pay. I was nearby and showed up and told Thi it made no sense for my sister to pay for a meal she didn't eat. Thi said she offered to pack it up to go however that didn't matter, my sister and her bf wouldn't eat it after seeing a roach. I then told my sister to just go wait in her car. Thi saw them step out and decided it was okay to place her hands on my sister (Thi is pregnant and so am I) so I stepped in and then a taller worker stepped in and got loud between Thi and I. There was also a bystander who we loudly announced to that there was a roach and she got angry with us saying that whatever we're dealing with doesn't have to be brought up to the other customers. My sister in law was with me and the bystander got "tough" because she's apparently not the "one" whatever her dumb ass meant. The said same bystander then threatened to call ICE on us because we're Latino despite us being US Citizens. All this to say is they have bad manners and a dirty environment. I would never recommend coming here to anyone.

    Vermicelli with Honey Glazed Grilled Pork
    Deborah N.

    Still freaking delicious! After a long day, eating some wholesome Vietnamese food, you just can't go wrong! We ordered banh mi and grilled pork vermicelli and two Thai teas! The banh mi passed the Deborah bread test! It was crispy and chewy and just the right consistency...and fresh ingredients! The vermicelli missed the mark for me. Most pho places use more of a savory style pork, but Pho Town uses a honey glazed grilled pork, and it sort of ruined it for me. I love savory and the savory marinade usually compliments the spicy well too, but if it's on the sweeter side, not so much. I am also sensitive to the organic, gritty dirt taste that comes from bean sprouts and it also played a part in ruining the overall dish. Still a great place to get the best broth with pho on 1960! It's a good thing I like to stick with what I know! Won't be getting vermicelli here again tho!

    Pho what it's worth, we love this Viet place. We loved their sandwiches and Barbi likes their spring rolls and their food is good too. Another great Vietnamese Restaurant in Houston area, and there's so much amazing competition, but so few of them ever disappoint. Maybe we don't have high standards, but we think we do and we think it's an excellent choice.

    This place is pretty good. Anytime I'm craving Vietnamese Food this is one of first options if I'm near 290 & FM 1960 area. The atmosphere is cozy and spacious for a small restaurant. They seem to keep it very clean inside. The selection is healthy and delicious. One of my favorite here is their Honey Glazed Pork Banh Mi. The bread is always perfect and has that nice crunch you're after in a Banh Mi. They have rice plates and Phò here too. And I would also recommend these too. Side note as with most Asian places, this is a seat yourself and pay at the counter style dine in service. You can of course order to go but this stuff is cooked fresh, so I recommend eating in. Service is great, the employees are quick to greet you and get you started. They are well versed with the menu so if you have questions they can answer with confidence.

    My Best friend and I,wanted a relaxed environment with great food. We didn't want to deal with any long lines. This was the perfect solution! The food was fresh, made upon order . The salad was perfect,smelled delicious. We ordered our entrees within 10min and dinners were served within 20min. Our food was HOT and the presentation was good also. Restaurant was clean ,cool and neat. I will be coming back here. Good ,kind service. I ordered the Teriyaki Beef & Shrimp Vermicelli. My Bestie ordered the Rib plate. We both went home with leftovers,for later. We were happy & satisfied.

    A1. Spring Rolls
    Souny H.

    Good decent pho. I love how they are open late. Came home from a drive in the city and was craving pho near home that was open late. This place was the only place that's open past 9pm so it was very convenient. Perfect for the cold that kicked in. There was one table dining it. I came alone. Ordered the spring rolls and the large combination pho. Good decent traditional broth. Nothing crazy. Good pho. Three other tables walked in after me so it got a bit busy. Service was really fast. One guy was working the front. The decor is your traditional pho ambiance. Booth and laminate tables and regular chairs. Nothing special. Good place for when you're craving later than 9pm on the north. Oh a bit pricey. $16 for pho is mad. I'd give it a 3.5 rather than a 4 star

The filling is placed in a pan and then a thin layer of batter made with tumeric and coconut milk yellow batter is poured on top. You wrap the lettuce around the bánh xèo/bánh khọt and dip it in the fish sauce. I got the bánh khọt and the bò né. Bánh khọt is like a mini, thicker version of bánh xèo and came with nine pieces. Their bánh khọt was crispy, sweet and savory, and went well with the fish sauce. Although the portions initally look small, they are very filling. The bò né was filling and sizzling when it came out. It also came with a side of salad. The meat was tender. I really liked the bánh khọt and would definitely come back for them. It's nice having an authentic Vietnamese restaurant in our area, close to us, so we don't have to make the trek to Bellaire every time we crave some Viet food!

I couldn't have been more wrong. Xeo Yum (#1) as it turns out is one of the most legit Vietnamese places in Midtown serving up some of the city's best banh xeo and banh khot. Located inside of a Food Hall (#2) in the back corner, they have low-key become a destination and without question, the most popular stall in the entire place. The fan base didn't happen overnight but is a direct result of Chef Cuong Nguyen's commitment to quality Vietnamese fare. Banh Xeo is their signature item, which is also known as a sizzling crepe or pancake made of rice flour, tumeric, and coconut milk. The banh xeo holds well, is perfectly crispy, and is nicely stuffed with an assortment of beans sprouts, shrimp, and some of the best grilled pork belly I've had. Another specialty item that doesn't get enough mention is their banh khot, which is similar but has a mini muffin / cupcake like appearance made in a specialty cast iron mold. This version is wonderfully crispy and pairs perfectly with fresh greens and fish sauce with some funk. It is my favorite item here. Some have argued they also serve one of the best bo ne (#3), the Vietnamese version of steak and eggs served in a skillet. The chunks of beef are nice and tender with just a tad of char, served with two fried eggs, and a banh mi baguette with a mix of butter and spare. Normally I think of spam or sausage included with the meats, but Chef Cuong's spin is with cherry tomatoes. It's a different approach and I'm not mad at it. Folks not looking for this can shoot for bo luc lac, aka shaking beef, which is also recommended. The staff here is sweet, hard-working, and very friendly. They also make a mean Vietnamese coffee and offer free iced self-serve water. The prices are what I would expect in a Midtown food hall, and there's plenty of seating. Anyone checking out the food hall need to make Xeo Yum as part of their eating itinerary. __________ (#1) A play on the Vietnamese sizzling crepe, Banh "xeo" and yum" (#2) Previously the Conservatory and now Stestí Food Hall.

When I arrived there was nobody dining in the restaurant, that was a bit worrying, but I figured it was a bit early for the dinner crowd and late for the lunch crowd. Food & Drink - 4.5* First up was the noodles, I enjoyed them, but I wouldn't say the hype I'd heard about from some others was there. They had nice flavor, but there just wasn't anything "special." 3.5* Then it was on to the crawfish, and my oh my. Superb, the flavor is delicious and unique. This more than made up for the noodles dish. The potato and corn was good too. Service - 5* Solid. When I first arrived the owner was quietly reading a newspaper and eating his own lunch. He paused to greet me and advised that I could sit anywhere. He provided water and adequate time to determine what I wanted to order. The food came out quickly and he checked in a few times to make sure everything was ok. As time went by, the crowd of folks showing up increased quite a bit and he still managed to check in on tables consistently. Pricing - 4* This is where it was odd. Always subjective but I found the noodles to be overpriced for not only the size but what I felt was a pretty simple dish. The crawfish on the other hand was priced very competitively and made up for the overpriced noodles. I provided pics of the menu for someone to make their own assessment but in general I thought many of the dishes were pricier than they probably should be. I know inflation is certainly killing many businesses and consumers but even these felt a bit off. Overall - 4.5* This is definitely going to be one of my go tos for crawfish when in the area. The flavor is fantastic, the pricing is good, the size of them were solid. There are a couple of other dishes I may try on the next visit. The restaurant is clean, the owner is very nice, and it's a nice low key space to just enjoy a good meal with friends or family.

I would definitely lock your doors and take all your valuables. But that's all or Houston, so just stay safe!

The guy who answered the phone wasn't the friendliest, but I decided to roll the dice anyway, and I'm glad I did because the food was solid. We started with the egg rolls. At $10.95 for five pieces, I thought they were a little pricey. They came out piping hot and fresh from the fryer with a great crunch, and the fish sauce was delicious. My only complaint was the lettuce--they only gave us one piece. What am I supposed to do with one piece of lettuce? The Canh Chua Tôm had the perfect level of sourness, exactly how I like it. The shrimp were a little overcooked, but the medium-sized bowl was a generous portion. The Cá Kho Tộ was cooked perfectly. The sauce was rich and savory with a hint of sweetness, though I would've liked just a touch more salt. Pair it with a bowl of rice and some soup, and it's hard to beat. Overall, this place was solid. Is it better than my grandma's? Absolutely not--but that's a tough standard to live up to. It definitely satisfied the craving, and yes, I'd come back.
