    Fried spring rolls and fresh spring roll
    Coylin V.

    I loved the prices, service and food! Everything was so yummy. Service was attentive and super sweet. I'm so happy to stumbled upon this spot! They deserve 5 stars. The atmosphere was quiet and comfortable. You felt at home. I had the fresh spring rolls (shrimp only) 8/10 the peanut sauce was a bit too sweet Banh Mi Pork Sandwhich- 9/10 Pho meatballs & steak, the broth was rich and the noodles had a good consistency. They aren't shy about the beef portions so a major plus. Update: I came again to try more dishes! Still amazing!

    The service was great and we got served with in ten minutes of being there ! Food was good asf . Best pho place I've been to

    Egg roll

    Service was honestly great. Didn't have to ask for much but the flavor just completely lacked. I wanted to try a new spot since I was in the area but unfortunately it's nothing to rave about. The soup lacked flavor and so did the eggs rolls. The egg rolls tasted like they have been sitting there and just warmed them up. I should've known the food wasn't going to be good when the entire place was empty during lunch. I Wish the food was as good as the service!

    Taste of pho was a great stop! Great service & our food came out fast! Everything was delicious too, no complaints from me. I went to taste of pho around lunchtime on a Wednesday. The restaurant was kinda busy, not not too bad. Our food came out so quickly! It was insane. The pho was pretty delicious and the brisket was super tender. The lo mein was delicious too and super authentic. The Vietnamese wings were pretty delicious as well, I'd recommend getting these. Overall, for a small place the food and service here was really great. Id recommend stopping in!

    The pho broth was okay. I would prefer a little bit more flavor as it tasted like the ratio of water to flavor was a little high. The rice noodles were okay though maybe less springy than others. There's a little less meat than expected for a large pho, but it wasn't too skimpy. The staff was happy to serve and check if I needed anything. The dish was cooked to a good temperature, and the price isn't bad if you have a sudden hankering for some hot broth, noodles and meat.

    Had my doubts after reading some bad reviews and even thought my first visit was a fluke, but I have come back and this place offers delicious food consistently! Came here with my husband, sister and a friend the first time as it was one of the only open pho places around after 8pm and we all had a craving for it. To our surprise, the service was good and quick! We ordered a few apps and phos and we all absolutely loved it!! As someone who consistently gets chicken pho, this was one of the first broths I tasted that was SOOO flavorful without adding anything to it. The second time we went, I even tried my husband's pho to make sure it wasn't a beef broth added to chicken and it definitely wasn't. Two distinct flavors but both so good! The large phos are a very big size for a decent price. Everything else we tried is also sooo good. The Vietnamese egg rolls are smaller than normal but still delicious. The lady who has helped us every time is so sweet and attentive. She always offers to pack our leftovers when she sees we have a lot leftover. Decent parking too since it's in a shopping strip. This place is always full of business, dine in and to go. Definitely a top pho place in the spring area!

    Me and my wife and my sister decided to try a new place for lunch The Taste of Pho. once we arrived, we were greeted kindly and efficiently. Upon entering the atmosphere of the restaurant seems very calm, clean and overall relaxing. The menu seem to be very simple with lots of options and lots of things to try. For appetizer, we ordered fried dumplings and also spring rolls starting off with the spring rolls. They were very fresh. The shrimp in them tasted very fresh so did the noodles and the lettuce that was inside. The fried dumplings were heavenly fried to a crisp with lots of flavor and freshness The sauce, which I believe was soy sauce, complemented the fried dumplings, extremely well and elevated them to a whole new level. We ordered a beef and pork Bahn mi and also a chicken and shrimp Pho. Starting with the Bahn mi surprisingly they were very empty. My beef sandwich didn't have much meat, but instead had lots of cilantro, carrots, jalapeños, despite this the bread was fresh and very crisp having a crunch with every bite. The flavor was sweet from the meat, but it balanced well with the vegetables now for the pork sandwich. The pork sandwich was overwhelmingly sweet, and I was completely thrown off by the flavor of the pork sandwich just like the beef sandwich not much protein was inside, but instead, lots of cilantro and carrots I would definitely not get the pork sandwich again, but the beef sandwich was pretty good. Had it had more protein. Now for the chicken Pho which was perfect the broth had a rich flavor with the hint of sweetness, the onions that were inside, balanced that sweet as well. The chicken was cooked perfectly, and the broth was so rich and nutrients feeling like a hug on the tongue and healing of the soul, I was extremely pleased by this Pho the noodles were cooked perfectly, not too soft and not too hard this Pho was a 10/10 . No moving on to the shrimp Pho which was also done perfectly the broth was nice rich and flavoring. Also a nice amount of green onions on top and other garnishes to balance out the flavor. The shrimp was fresh. The noodles cooked perfectly, and the broth was so rich in flavor. overall, the experience was nice staff were extremely friendly and efficient, but I cannot get over the beef sandwich and the pork sandwich. They just were not to my pleasing, but overall the taste of a is a nice place to go for lunch.

    Great place. Clean, food is yummy, 10/10 service. Thank you Taste of Pho, we will come back. Shrimp fried rice

    Eggrolls
    Susan P.

    Some of the best Vietnamese eggrolls I've had, hot, crispy tasty. The beef vermicelli was a bit dry but tasty. I would have preferred a bit more moisture. The noodles were solid and it's definitely worth a second visit.

    I found myself in Spring so I decided to find a new spot by doing some yelp searching. I was torn…read morebetween a few choices, but I was craving beef noodle soup so I ended up having the pleasure of trying this restaurant for the first time. The restaurant is in a large strip mall and parking was plentiful. We arrived around 11:30 am on a Saturday and were surprised to see that the restaurant was empty. The waitress seated us promptly and was friendly. The decor is simple. The beef noodle soup was amazing! The broth was very hearty and flavorful; the meat was perfectly cooked and super tender and the noodles were the perfect accompaniment to the spectacular dish! The xiao long bao were also delicious. The wrapper was sturdy and the meat was well seasoned with a generous amount of soup. I like how each XLB was served in a foil container so that you don't have to worry about the soup dripping all over the place. The oil spill noodle had excellent flavor, but I wish I had ordered the hand pulled noodle. The fried fish was piping hot and crispy with a nice Sichuan kick. My diagnosis: one of the best beef noodle soups in the Houston area with other solid Asian staples!

    Hidden gem alert! My family was on our way to a Yelp Elite event up in Spring, TX, and in true Yelp…read morefashion, we decided to take the opportunity to try and support a local business with plans to write a review. So I did a search for Chinese food on Yelp nearby and voila! Noodle Kitchen we shall try. Now the ratings overall are good, but interestingly the vast majority of the reviews within the past year are all 5 stars. How is that possible? Could this place really be that good yet I've never tried it? The curiosity is killing you, I know. So let's dive in. Parking is always a big deal for me, and in this case, parking was no problem. It's a big parking lot with basically unlimited spots as it's in a large strip center. So far, so good. We arrived on a Saturday around 11:30 am hoping to beat the lunch rush - mission accomplished. We were the only ones there. Whenever I try a new Chinese restaurant that offers xiao long bao (AKA soup dumplings AKA XLB), I gotta try it. So we did. And it was excellent. The key is to suck the soup out of the hole on top. And If there is no hole, make one with a chopstick, and you won't spill the precious soup out of the dumpling. They also brought out the special XLB soy sauce with ginger. It was wonderful. Next we gotta get the beef noodle soup. And oh my, dare I say it: it might be the best I've ever had. Call me crazy, but don't call me crazy until you've tried it yourself. The broth was so rich and deep in flavor. I absolutely loved it. Zoom in on my photo. You'll salivate. The hot oil spill noodle was good but not great. I wish the noodles were hand-pulled like I'm used to (I'm spoiled, I know), but it was still good. And lastly, the crispy spicy fish fillet was quite good but a bit pricey and small in portion. The fish from Dumplings and Noodles by Cooking Girl is better, but the fish here is definitely something I would order again. So there you have it for food. Overall - very impressive and I would definitely come back and drive 45 minutes just for the braised beef noodle soup. The service was also really good. There was one older Asian lady who took care of us from beginning to end and she was great. Lastly the ambiance was surprisingly pleasant. Restaurant was spacious, clean, and they even have claw machines for entertainment. The big wonder is, for a restaurant so good, where are the customers? It was quite empty for a Saturday lunch, and we only saw a few to go orders while we were there. This is Spring's well-kept secret when it comes to Chinese food. Enjoy!

    this place is amazing great customer service…read more food and options are endless this is a go to spot vibes are good restrooms are clean sanitize great check em outtt !

    The food was very good!…read more I was hesitant at first because some of the menu seemed to be fusion items. In a place like Houston, where you can get authentic Vietnamese food, this can be a luck draw if the fusion pays off. However, when I tried the food, it was a very flavorful and worth every cent I spent. Everything was very tasty. The wings were flavorful and crisp. It had a combination of crispy skin seasoned with a rich sauce. The meat was also moist. For a party of two, it was also very shareable because they gave six pieces -both drums and wings. I will say that you really gotta to get in there get your hands and face dirty though! (They did provide a hand wipe!) For the main dishes, the won tonic soup was very flavorful with sweet-and-sour elements with egg noodles that soaked up all this good flavor. The wontons inside were very standard. And the onion was added to provide some balance. Everything was very hardy and filling. My friend had gotten the vermicelli. Which came with crunchy egg rolls, shredded veggies, noodles, and shrimp topped with a fish sauce. It felt very light and refreshing with a balance of textures and savory elements'. Highly recommend as the number one and two selling dishes - it would just depend on if you're in a soup or dry noodle sort of mood. Service was overall fast and friendly. You have to pay by going to the counter. We had a newer waiter though, and it took him a long time to get our orders correctly and he had to get some help. Hopefully they're doing well, but overall, it's a very cute Homie little establishment. Seating fits around 30 around booths and tables.
