I stopped by for some banh mi que and they were perfect. I understand what all the hype is about now. The bread to meat and butter ratio makes it the perfect sandwich. The bread is lightly toasted, meat is served cool as expected. I ordered it with only cilantro, not all the pickled veggies. It took 7 minutes to get three of the sandwiches freshly prepared. I also got the yogurt with purple rice, also great - no complaint. I purchased a box of the mini steamed buns with quail egg, $16. Tried one as soon as o got to the car-hit the spot for my afternoon snack. They offer lots of buns, steamed and fried. Along with traditional Vietnamese desserts. They currently filled with mooncakes so not as many traditional desserts. This place is small but have lots to offer. There's not place to eat, take out only. Parking was in abundance on Sunday at 2 PM. Service was quick, English is 2nd language. You'll need to point a lot if you don't speak any Vietnamese. read more

I came here for the bánh mì as I was looking for a great bánh mì spot in Houston. But the bánh mì here was just average but they have many other bakery goods here I need to come back to try. The service here is good and there are no language barrier here. As I have some vegan diet friends with me so they had to make sure the food they are getting are vegan. It is kind of hidden in the back. If you drive back that plaza you will not see it right away. But I will be back and try other food offering here. read more

The banh mi has a perfect blend of light crisp outer crust and soft bread. The skinny banh mi was perfect to hold and not make a mess while eating. The lady at the counter was very helpful and patient with us we decided on what to order. We ended up with banh mi, banh bao, two kinds of yogurt and cream puffs! Everything was super delicious and was enjoyed by kids and adults alike! Highly recommend this hidden gem. read more

Possibly the best bao I've eaten in a while. Definitely would recommend you try them.

I've been frequenting Thiem Hung Bakery for years and I absolutely love their Bánh Bao! They used to have a seating area for Bo Ne sizzling plates but after COVID, they're only operating as a to-go restaurant. My fave is their salty egg Bánh Bao and even though it's 25c extra, I think it's worth the splurge every time! Both versions of the baos will have a generous portion of mince pork, mushroom, skinny vermicelli noodles, and a dash of green onions. The bao texture is soft and bouncy, though a little too thick for my liking. I also love their salted egg cupcakes and flan cake. The savory cupcakes pair amazingly well with the salted eggs, cubed cheese, and pork floss. The flan is smooth and soft, with the perfect amount of bitterness from the cocoa sponge cake. You cannot go wrong with either of these! I tried their combination Bánh Mì once and was disappointed. The flavor was lackluster and portion was also small for $6. I was genuinely surprised how bad this was considering everything else is delicious. The waiting area can get a little too crowded with 4+ people standing. Service has been welcoming and tentative, even though sometimes they try a little too hard to up-sale. read more

Omg the Baos are the best I've had. A bit on the small side but perfect balance of bread and ingredients. Small quail egg perfectly cooked. My must go spot every time I'm in Houston. read more

This my go-to banh mi! For almost a decade, Thiem Hung has made amazing and authentic banh mi's of all sorts. Baguette is cut perfectly with the perfect amount of meat and at an exceptional price. This week I get my usual, shumai banh mi. Tell my why the meat filling inside was cold and fishy. It tasted like when food is left out. It made me sick after and i threw up. The current banh mi's meat have a freezer burn taste occasionally. Regulars have told me the original owners have slowly stepped back and now potentially their children are taking over. Maybe they don't have the passion? Because it's very clear the quality is lacking, yet prices are still increasing. Hopefully things improve. read more

Thiem Hung entering the Banh Mi Race as well! Doing well- reflection of contemporary style in the mother country. Xíu Mại Bì Hành Mỡ with refined thinly sliced curly green onions. Plenty of tender pork meat balls and Bì. The only chunky condiment is the pickled carrot and daikon. Cukes, jalapeño, curly green onion all thinly sliced. read more

They have tasty banh bao (pork buns) and a variety of Vietnamese specialty desserts. Got a mix of salted and normal egg buns - both are delicious, and have a piece of chinese sausage (lap xuong) in them. I also got tofu pudding and yogurt with fermented rice on top - sữa chua nếp cẩm, its something I havent had in forever since I came to the US. The service was very fast and if you pay by cash, its cheaper. read more

Thiem Hung Bakery - Suppose to be mayo,ham&pate - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

The best bo ne/Vietnamese steak and egg. The beef is so tender and it just melts in your mouth. Their pate and butter also goes great with the bread. Portions are really good. You definitely will be filled up. Bo ne is one of those cuisines that you have to take your time to eat in order to savor every taste. This place is a hidden gem. Located in a small plaza. The inside isn't too big so there can be a wait when it's crowded. Always be careful when you're eating bo ne because it comes out on a sizzling hot plate. You can practically see the steam coming out of it. It's always exciting because it smells so good and it's best to eat while it's sizzling. This place has become my favorite place to get bo ne in town. read more

Easy to find, plenty of parking and spacious inside with lots of seating. I got the regular Bo Ne (5/5) - the meat is flavorful, but the bread could use some more toasting. Rau ma (5/5) Over all, bomb azz Bo Be place. I will definitely be coming back here often. read more

I came here for the bo ne and it was just okay. The service was mediocre. I waited about 20 minutes to get water. The place wasn't packed or busy, it just seemed that they forgot. I ordered the Bo Ne Dac Biet, which is the special bo ne option, it has slightly more meat than the regular for $2 extra. The bread that came out with it was perfect, crispy and fresh out the oven. The bo ne however was just okay. I think it's a little on the sweet side, sweeter than most bo ne places. However it wasn't bad. 3/5 I give places 3 tries before I absolutely don't return so maybe it can just be a bad day. I'll update whenever I come back one day. I heard so much rave from family about this place and when I went with them, they said today wasn't good. So that can honestly be the verdict for itself. read more

Thiem Hung Bakery - Roach in penny worth drink - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

Translation of the Menu: - Steak and egg with extra meat - Steak with two eggs - Standard steak and egg - Steamed dumpling pastry with pork and salted egg/ or with chicken - Fried dumpling pastry with pork and salted egg/ or with chicken - The rest are drinks - I got the BO NE, the standard steak and egg. It also comes with a small pork meatball. They ask you beforehand how well you want your steak to be done. The entree does come out on a sizzling plate so it does cook a little more. The sauce is on the sweet side. The bread was perfectly crunchy and paired nicely with the butter and pate. There was also a side salad that comes out first. It was lettuce, jalapeno, and white onions. They're most known for their BANH BAO. People came in and bought it by the boxes. 4 in a box for $12. I had it for breakfast the next morning and it was pretty good. The soft white bread was slightly sweet and there were pieces of radish in the pork filling that gave it a crunch. read more

We go here all the time for the bo be (sizzling steak and eggs) and it never disappoints! Orders come with baguette, pate, and French butter. And a side salad. Put it all together for a delicious meal! Their banh baos are also delicious! For 2.50 each! They have a chicken egg and salted duck egg and both are delicious! read more

A very solid 4.5 stars!! My lash lady recommended this place to me as one that she ventures to frequently just for their bo ne aka Vietnamese steak and eggs. The bf wanted BBQ and I didn't want something that heavy - so this was the compromise! Cubed steak seasoned perfectly with onions caramelized onto a sizzling platter with a sunny side up egg! It's served with fresh warm baguettes - also perfectly crispy on the outside, warm and tender on the inside. It comes with lettuce and mayo/pate and it is delicious! This place is known for their bo ne aka steak and eggs and I think they only (literally) have less than 10 items on the menu. They have this and a beef special - whatever that is! They also serve banh baos aka Vietnamese hum baos or white buns filled with seasoned ground pork, Chinese sausage and a hard boil egg! My grandma use to make this and it was a day's work to make the dough, make the filling, stuff the buns and then steam them! Oh how I miss them and this place makes them exactly like she did. Even the bf enjoyed them and he's a bit picky. The pork was just seasoned well and so juicy with its wood ear mushrooms, jicama, green onions, etc. I ordered coconut juice but they do not speak English at all and gave us some other drink with coconut milk, beans and jello. Pretty delicious nonetheless but I couldn't tell you what it was or how to order it again. We even ordered the banh baos to-go! They mistakenly thought I ordered them fried - my Vietnamese and pointing skills must be horrible :) So I ended up getting the fried ones and the normal ones to-go. They freeze up well and you can steam them when you want to eat them, if you plan on keeping them long term. Or else they stay in the fridge for a little while and you can reheat them in the microwave. Watch out for the egg though, it might explode in the microwave! Overall, minus the language barrier and miscommunication - the food was fantastic. Don't expect much in terms of decor - it is a hole in the all with delicious food. People kept walking in ordering boxes of their banh baos to-go and he knew we wanted the steak and eggs. That's how you know they're good! They specialize in two things and they do it well! read more

This place was recommended by a friend. I will never trust anything that comes out of his mouth again. The service was a bit slow and the food took a while to come out. The place stays busy surprsingly. HOT TEA- never had I ordered hot tea and they brought it out in a plastic container cup. I'm used to the metal tea pot that they usually bring out. Its 55 degree out and I wanted something to warm my hand and belly. Unfortunately the tea was barely warm. BREAD - decent. Not as hot or crunchy like I wanted. The bread inside is not super super soft. May be a couple days old. The bread came out the same time as the salad and so by the time the bo ne arrived the bread was cold. SALAD- sad. Why does a salad come with jalp? Should've change it to cucumber instead. I didnt know which sauce to choose for the salad since there were two on the table. Apparently 1 is for the salad and the other was for the meat. BUTTER/PATE - the serving size was little. My container was not filled to the top. 90-10 ratio butter to pate. It's like they give you a tiny dab of pate. I was very sad as I like to have even amount on my bread.. BO NE- good serving size. The meat was soft and theres plenty of sauce to dip your bread! The meatball is good as well. While everything was good I feel I can get better for less the price.$14 for bo ne and the whole experience was very mediocre. I will not be returning. read more

I came here because of a recommendation. Unfortunately, I am the banana of my family and Vietnamese isn't my strong language. It's actually impossible for me to understand and speak, so here we go. I wanted bo ne, which are steak and eggs. If I had known what the menu said, I could've gotten steak and 2 eggs. I also couldve requested pate because there was more butter. I wish there were an English speaker there because I couldn't really order or enjoy myself. The food was okay and the bread was light and flakey. The salad was pre-refrigerated, onion smell was strong. The meatball was good but mine seemed to be a little underdone. This wouldn't be my first option for steak and eggs. read more

It is a really good steak and the bread is so good. You will need to order more bread because one is not enough.

This place deserves way more hype than the Popeye's chicken sandwich. There are plenty of parking spots. The service was fast and friendly. They expanded over the years so it's spacious and clean inside. They're known for bo ne (vietnamese steaks) and steam buns. They have 3 beef options. Basically, you get more beef for bo ne dac biet, more egg for bo trum men and regular size for bo ne. The bo ne came out sizzling hot with sunny side up egg and vietnamese meatball. They also came with fresh baguette, a side salad, pate and butter. Feeling thirsty? Try their rau ma. I highly recommend this place. Try it and you don't be disappointed! read more

My family's been coming here for Vietnamese egg rolls in the past few years. Basically, whenever we have a large family function that requires some type of filler food, we go with the mass order of Vietnamese egg rolls. They go for 50 cents a pop which isn't exactly cheap, but for the convenience and the consistently good quality, I guess it's worth it. I'm giving it 3 stars because (1) I'm pretty sure there are other places out there that provide the same service as this place and will taste as good, (2) you have to speak Vietnamese to order here; I don't think the people running the place understand much English, and (3) they aren't exactly friendly people, even if we do speak Vietnamese to them. They didn't crack a smile once while we were there. If you are looking to place a mass order, I think you need to tell them a day in advance, and then you can go pick up. It looks like they also sell individual Vietnamese meals, but I don't know how good they are. For the above reasons though, I wouldn't care to try these meals out. :-) read more

We only came for the Bo Ne! This isn't the original location but we heard through the grapevine that this place was better. I personally haven't tried the original location but I thought I'd give this place a try! We were surprised at their menu options. Literally it's the Bo Ne items and their Bun Bao. They also sell Vietnamese coffee and other various drinks. They were stingy on the coffee, they only filled my cup halfway and the rest was ice! Our table ordered half Bo Ne and Bo Dac Biet. When our order came out, they literally all looked the same. Our waitress said that one had more meat but we didn't see a difference. The plates came with French bread, salad and French butter and pate. It's meant to be eaten together or as a sandwich. The sizzling beef came out on a hot plate and was flavorful! The fried egg was cooked perfectly. However the meatball I was indifferent about. For a first timer, I'd give this place 4 stars! I'd definitely want to compare this with other Bo Ne locations. read more

I came here for the banh bao. I enjoy the filling. It's very simple and the bao is fluffy. The ca phe sua da is excellent.

Their Banh Baos are so delicious! They have plenty of meat in their filling while the bao itself is light and fluffy. Because they're not skimpy with the portion, the baos are pretty pricey at $2.50 which is more than what I'm used to paying but they are definitely worth it. They are great fresh! I have to try their bo ne sometime! read more

*chanting while banging a fork and knife on the table* STEAK AND EGGS!!! STEAK AND EGGS!! Hands down my favorite "Bo Ne" place in Houston. Their food deserves more hype than it gets, since not a lot of people know about it. There's a generous amount of food in every order, and the plates come out sizzling hot. Each comes with a plate of ice cold salad to help balance out the heat, fresh french baguettes, and of course, vietnamese butter and pâté. Whut. Don't forget about their fresh made drinks: rau ma (pennyworth), and nuoc mia (sugar cane). Salted duck egg steamed pork buns (banh bao) - Get them. Pass them out to your friends and family like Oprah (You get a banh bao, and youuuu get a banh bao!) Each box comes with four. You'll thank me later. read more

We were craving Vietnamese steak and eggs with bread so found this place thanks to yelp. The store is a little further away from the other restaurants on Bellaire but still worth it. I love how simple the menu is which only has like 5 items on it. Well, not sure about the exact number but you get my point. This is a hole-in-the-wall kind of restaurant with bars on windows. We came on a weekend for lunch and it was packed in this tiny shop. I had the bo ne which is beef cubes with eggs along with bread. The meat was tender and the combination of bread + meat was perfect. I also had their green drink (not sure what's the name). I saw other people drinking it and asked our waiter for the same thing. That drink was good! They don't have the best customer service but like most Viet places, I don't expect that. Come check out this place if you are in the area! read more

Thiem Hung Bakery - Bo ne - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

This hole-in-the-wall has the best Bo Ne we've had so far in Houston (and we tried a total of 4 places, 3 in the same weekend)! Seating here can be somewhat limited/sparse since it is a tiny restaurant. They have about 3 main entrees, 2 appetizers, and 4 drinks on their menu. Their Bo Ne comes with a loaf of bread, butter/pate spread, side salad, one meatball, and steak & egg on a hot skillet. The egg was still runny (just how I like it) and the meat used was so tender. Portion-wise, it was a little small for $12. Other places give you more bread, an extra egg, or add sausage/hot dogs, but Thiem Hung makes up for the additional items just with taste. Their pate was good (not too much of a liver taste), bread was crispy on the outside soft on the inside, meat was tender and juicy, egg wasn't overcooked. I would say this is my favorite Bo Ne joint so far. I can eat this everyday. read more

My boyfriend and I wanted something new and wanted to try something on this side of town when we came across Thiem Hung on Yelp. There is a language barrier for those who do not speak Vietnamese (me) because they only speak Vietnamese here. We got the BO NE, which means steak and egg but it also comes with a small pork meatball on a sizzling plate. Compared to Bo Ne on Beechnut, the steak is very saucy (sweeter side) and flavorful. There are no soy sauces on the table but you really don't need it! Their butter and pate were soft but the bread is a little on the crunchier side. It also comes with a small salad on the side and you can top it with your dressing of choice on the table. It seems like most people do come in for the BANH BAOS because a lot of people bought it in boxes while we were eating. Service is slow but what do you expect from an Asian establishment? Will we come back? Yes of course! read more
