Stumbled on this place with my two year old- and we liked it! The food took a while but was obviously made fresh. Everyone was kind and helpful, offering to carry my tray. There were no kids meal portions that I saw. My son had the chicken and brown rice bowl with peanut sauce. He would have drank the sauce if I let him. My bahn mi was delicious- very tangy and different than others I've had. The egg rolls were delicious too! read more

I came here on a chilly day, usually perfect for a warm bowl of pho. The menu here is not intuitive at all, ordering was confusing and there aren't many options for toppings. The pho itself was flavorless and oily, I had to add a lot of Sriracha to taste anything. The fried dumplings were the best part of the meal, which is unexpected for a place that specializes in pho and banh mi. I have had much better pho elsewhere, but if you're in the area and wanting pho it will do. read more

Food tasted horrible!! We had to throw aways $50+ worth of food. I've never done that before. Soggy banh mi sandwiches and meat was fatty.

I always get the Jasmine white rice bowl to-go because I usually get full off of half of it. I get it topped with half chicken and half pork, various veggies, and cilantro dressing (get extra). The veggies are fresh. The pork can sometimes be pretty fatty. Overall, a nice and easy lunch. I've heard great things about the rest of the menu items that I hope to explore soon. I've been told multiple times to try the curry fries. They are topped with curry powder. They were pretty good. I would like them to be a bit hotter temp wise and perhaps next time I'll order curry on the side to dip them in. I like the Thai tea and Pho-rappucino. They both give a nice boost of energy. I like that the Pho-rappucino is well blended so you don't get a clump of ice at the bottom. The staff is really nice. Location has plenty of seating. You can enter from the front or there is a small parking lot behind it with a back door you can enter through. read more

Fantastic Pho and spring rolls! Friendly service. I don't get people not liking the pho, they apparently have no experience in eating pho ‍

We were craving something light & fresh for dinner. We drove by Viet Bites & decided to give it a try. Parking is in the back. You get to customize your order off their easy menu. Service was quick & the food was very fresh! The grilled shrimp spring rolls are huge & great dipped in the peanut sauce. We want to try many other things so will be back soon!! read more

I ordered the ragoons and boba, and they were amazing!! Staff and atmosphere was perfect

good food good service portions are a bit small but pretty good food all around the staff is decent when they talk to you in English

I was pretty skeptical when it said "build your own pho bowl" but my husband really wanted to try this place. Talk about underwhelming. The broth was tasteless, no amount of hoisin or sriracha could help it. The chicken were cut into chunks rather than thin slices which was odd. Barely any noodles or chicken in the bowl for the price compared to everywhere else I've been. This place is overpriced. Definitely would not recommend this place and will not be coming back. The drive to Asian Star or Pho Bistro II is worth it. read more

Neat concept, but if looking for authentic Pho this isn't the place with very bland broth and paying for a large had less noodles than regular at any other location. The Boba was under cooked and too chewy. Saving grace was the crispy garlic tofu was delicious. read more

Terrible food overall. Extremely low quality meat and very nasty service people. 100% would never go there again completely disgusting establishment read more

I reviewed the second location quite a long time ago. Since then that location has closed and now it's just this one on Fry. My first impressions of this place were not good, and I had given the other location a couple chances and settled on two stars. I really wasn't fond of it, and still found myself driving to Lewisville for the best pho. Recently a friend asked me if I wanted if I wanted to tag along for lunch and she suggested here. I was a tad hesitant but I wasn't about to say no to a pregnant lady. Upon walking in, they have a different set up from the other location. The other one was a sit down style restaurant, while this one is more order at the counter, grab your food and go. I think that style works better for this area of town, and I prefer it as well. I also dig the fact that they have a toppings bar, with plenty of fresh ingriediants. There is no one watching you so you can feel free to put as much chili oil as you want! Since my first visit just a short time ago, I believe I've already come more than 10 times easily. The way they cook the tofu is easily one of my favorite in Denton. They get it perfectly crisp on the outside and just soft enough on the inside. It pairs well in the noodle bowl or the ban mi sandwich. I find both to be really good, with very fresh and bright ingredients. I see a lot of comments on the pho not being authentic and I think I would agree. It's defiantly not the best, so I stick to the other dishes. I haven't had any meat here yet so I can't really speak to how good it is here or not. The service here every time is very good. Everyone has always been helpful and pleasant. It seems no matter how busy they are, they usually get me my food in five minutes or so. Overall, I'm really surprised at how much I like this place after my previous visits. It's easily become one of my top lunch spots and I find myself craving it! read more

1 of 3 employees was not wearing a mask while serving food. The other 2 were, but it only takes 1 to infect others. This is unacceptable during the Covid pandemic. read more

Really good value, really good food. I had the pork banh mi and added an egg roll. The roll was mostly meat so that's a plus for anyone who's a little less of a fan for some veg. The banh mi was very nice. The veggies were fresh and matched the high quality of the roll and the pork wasn't bad at all. They've got a sign on the cooler correctly indicating all beers are just $2 right now, making dining in a great option. read more

I love the vibe of this place! I always smelled their food every time I walked to class in the afternoon, and it always smelled good. I decided to try it and it was pretty yummy! The reviews made me hesitant but honestly this place didn't deserve such awful reviews. I ordered the Pho in large and got the special meat combination--- it was pretty tasty! It was a bit bland, but honestly it leaves room for all the stuff people put in their pho. Don't even lie my fellow viets, y'all drown your bowls of Pho with sriracha and hoisin sauce before you even try it. Idk why so many Vietnamese people complained about the authenticity of the food. It was fine, they just adjusted a few things to make it easier for people who aren't accustomed to our cuisine. There are even Vietnamese people working and cooking the food. Just because you didn't like the food, doesn't mean it's not authentic... Anyways, try it out before you make your judgement. The Vietnamese lady working in the front was awesome and really nice. She made my food read more

I've had pho from a variety of places, and this was not the best place to get pho. I like the idea of customizing your pho and choosing your meats and soup base. I ordered a chicken pho with chicken broth, and the chicken was dry. The soup was bland and wasn't flavorful. I had to add sauces to make it taste better. There is a vegetable bar that had veggies you can add into your pho, including bean sprouts, onions, cilantro, lime, and other stuff. Overall, the food was okay after adding in some sauces, the noodles lacked flavor, and my chicken was dry and hard. The price was expensive compared to other pho places, and I'd expect better pho if paying ~$9. Customer service was also good. Won't recommend the pho though. read more

Great place. Good food and a good price and atmosphere. Kind of weird menu

Love the cabbage swap on the pho, but I wish they offered more traditional meats such as tripe and tendon with their bowls--understandable given the local customer base. I don't feel that the portion size difference between regular and large pho is worth the upcharge as we would be more interested in getting some extra broth with our soup. Pork eggroll was not very memorable; the shrimp spring rolls on the other hand were quite tasty, especially grilled. Mango tapioca smoothie tasted very different from other boba tea places, tart and not very sweet, a refreshing change. Pho-Rench Dip Sandwich is worth a try if you're looking to change it up from the routine banh mi sandwiches. read more

I've been to Vietnam and didn't expect true authentic food but this was horrible. I'm actually shocked that the owners are Vietnamese and allow food this bad to be served. The pho broth is literally broth from a can. If you've had pho you know the broth is made by cooking down bones along with all the Vietnamese spices. I'm really forgiving when it comes to food but I felt compelled to warn people. If the owners read this I would beg you to create real Vietnamese recipes and try again. read more

Food is good. However I feel for the overall quality of food it is kind of pricy. I also hate how we have to remove or own dishes from the table and sit them in a dirty basket with other people used dishes. They also have open straws in a container which is also very in sanitary. read more

While I loved the original Viet Bites, and gave it a strong 4 stars, I'm saddened that I don't care much for this location. Staff - After visiting this location a handful of times I have noticed a few common themes. The first is that the staff is not very friendly and always appeared bothered that I'm there to order food. It's always different people working so it's almost impressive that this happens every visit. They also manage to mess up our order 100% of the time. Sometimes it's little things like not putting our sauce in the bag and sometimes things are wrong with the food. Unfortunately i would give the staff q star. Food - We pretty much always order the same things. Pho'get the Meat (Vegetarian Pho with Tofu and Vegetables), Tofu Banh Mi, and sometimes tofu fries. So the Tofu fries at the other location were an easy 5 stars. They were crisp, not oily, and full of flavor. At this location they tend to be soggy and bland. We probably won't order them anymore. The Banh Mi is usually decent, although pretty great at the other location. Ingredients seem to be missing at times, and they put very little sauce. The bread doesn't seem super fresh either. The Pho is ok. We usually get it to go and the ingredients and quality vary from time to time. Not much constancy. I hate that this location is so underwhelming compared to the other. I loved it so much, and this store does not do the Viet Bites name any justice. read more

Chicken was funky smelling and not seasoned at all, found a little hair in my sauce cup and later on in my bowl. I couldn't eat my food so I asked for a refund. Still waiting for it to be returned to my card even though the lady at the counter said it was "immediate refund" spend your money somewhere else. read more

My company has me working in Denton for today, so I thought I would check this place out. I wasn't expecting much from all the bad reviews but Seoul Chicken wasn't open yet and I needed a quick bite before I got back to work. That being said... 11 for a bowl of pho and you get no vegetables?. Or maybe I should have let them know, but usually every viet restaurant you go to always has condiments of mint leaves and lemon or lime to add that additional flavor to your pho. The broth was very bland. Tasted like it came from Insta-pho in a bag. I do have to say that the small pieces of meat that I did get it, were fresh and tasty but they were only a couple pieces. other customer reviews are on par with the comment that you pay a lot for your bow that is bland, with little condiments to no condiments. I don't recommend this place even if you want to chance and try it like I did just to give the place a chance. Super bland is all I can sum up with. I can't believe you can jack it up, but this place did it. read more

Yet another reason I love going to school in Denton: The ability to find places when you are low carbing it. I frequently get the grilled lemon grass chicken bowl with no rice or noodles and just extra veggies including avocado and I top it with anything from peanut sauce to Citrus ginger dressing. Not only is it delicious but it won't stretch your waistline nor your wallet. Super fresh food in a very funky college vibe location and very friendly waitstaff. I typically get my food to go and I love that it's ready in under 10 minutes. They also have a toppings station so if you really want more cilantro you can just walk up and get some. I love finding places around UNT that are reasonably priced and not something junk food. I highly recommend this place. read more

Great little place, my college age kids loved the atmosphere and food was fantastic and fast

I've been to this Viet Bites location a few times and had good experiences. I always get the tofu bahn mi, it's yummy. However, today my bahn mi was overstuffed and half of the bottom broke off and I had to hold it together while I ate. THEN we ordered the "spicy garlic fries" and were extremely underwhelmed.... see photo. It's literally fries with some chopped jalapenos and garlic on top. I was picturing fries tossed in spices and garlic.... they weren't even salty at all... no flavor unless you happen to get jalapeño or garlic bits. Total fail, not sure how these ended up on the menu. Viet bites- please make these fries better, the name makes them sound so good! Here's another tip: if they're busy, this location is SUPER SLOW! They need to hire more people! read more

This establishment is doing a great job of serving up great food in spite of the corona panicdemic. I brought a description of a Vietnamese dish I used to order in California (in Vietnamese) and they made it for me. Probably the best Vietnamese food in Denton. Well worth the effort. read more

I've lived here the past 6 years and discovered Viet bites right away. They have amazing service, delivery service, and food! I always get the pho and banh mi combo, you really can't go wrong. I also love their dumplings! read more

I'm just going to echo other reviews here by saying this, but AVOID THE PHO. If you have experience with authentic Vietnamese restaurants (which there is an abundance of in DFW) and are coming for that, you will leave disappointed. If you don't have experience with authentic Vietnamese restaurants, would like some vegetarian flare to Vietnamese food, or just need a different delivery option in your book, I'd say to give it a go. They carry a tofu protein option, which isn't typical. Worth noting it includes mushrooms if you're squeamish of the little buddies. Their bahn mi isn't the greatest, but it served its purpose as a good carrier of tofu. Haven't tried their bun/noodle bowl, but I'd like to believe their tofu could find a cozy home there as well. Their curry fries were also pretty delicious, and survived the soggy depths of delivery. To settle any confusion, it's curry seasoning, not sauce. Although it did come with a tasty sauce companion. With all that said, I'd still argue to venture out to places like Pho Pasteur 2 in Carrollton. That food baby happiness is worth the drive, and Viet Bites doesn't even compare. read more

Good service, and can expertly pack up to-go orders. Banh Mi was good, pho was not. The Bahn Mi had a generous portion of pork, with pickled veggies, cucumber, jalepeños, and cilantro, so a solid sandwich that is easily a meal on it's own. Wanting to try the pho as well I got the banh mi//pho combo. The broth had little flavor in it, and the beef added in did not add much to it. Yes there were lots of noodles, bean sprouts, cilantro and jalapenos, with a lime as adornment, but the broth it what makes or breaks the dish, and in my case it broke it. Since it's cheap and conveniently located to UNT I recommend eating here, just not the get the pho. read more

Viet Bites - Bahn mi pho combo. - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

I recently got the vermicelli with pork. It wasn't bad, but the price doesn't match the quality. The pork tasted like thick bacon that had been sitting out all day - not tender or pleasant to eat. In my opinion, there could have been more noodles and a bigger portion of fish sauce. I have had better Vietnamese in Carrollton! read more

This place used to be a solid 4 stars, I would always bring friends from out of town for a VB Combo but for some reason they really letting it go the last 12-18 months. It's, sadly, always dirty and disorganized now and the employees seem generally confused by what they are doing. Whoever decided that chopping up the Phó noodles was a good idea should not be allowed in the kitchen anymore :( read more

Viet Bites - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

The Banh mi here is always good and fresh. Ingredients are fresh as well, but when you order, be clear on what you want on the sandwich. I basically only said chicken for mine and no jalapeños, and so they assumed to add kimchi and everything not in the green box, which I assumed you had to ask for. Got the taro boba the first time I was here and it was disgusting and watery. This time I got Thai tea and it was pretty good and decent. ALTHOUGH I think 3.75 for the size of the boba drink is freaking ridiculous. Service was friendly, but the actual time to get food was a little slow. Atmosphere is nice. Price for Banh mi is decent (5.50), it's just the boba that made it expensive. Never ordering the boba again because of the price. read more

this place sucks so hard. we were the first people to order, and it took them literally 30 minutes to make two sandwhiches. the guy who ordered after us got his food first. the spring rolls tasted rotten and the peanut sauce horrible. banh mis were good, pho is terrible. my friend is vietnamese and said it tastes like water. overall terrible service and everyone working is white which is a red flag. this place sucks and i will never return. read more

I was kinda disappointed today for lunch when I ate back here. I ate here about 2 years ago and it was pretty good but today was sad. I'm pretty sure the food was close to spoiling which is not okay whatsoever. I didn't eat the chicken because it looked kinda funny. Very overpriced too I paid $17 for a bowl of noodles with two spring rolls. Very sad it went down hill. Also they did not clean the tables. read more

I ordered for delivery during the middle of this pandemic and the service was exceptional I ordered the rare beef pho it was good but not the best I've had I don't think the broth was seasoned as well as some others and the portion was definitely smaller. read more

Love the self serve ingredients bar! Their Bahn Mi sandwiches are awesome! Their pho is just ok, the broth is a little plain and a little skimpy on the meat compared to other pho restaurants.. but the meat that's there is quite delicious! I love having access to the jalapeños and bean sprouts and onions and limes etc, I never get enough of these items at other restaurants (especially bean sprouts, love em!) so that's the main reason I just keep coming back! Soak a few more bones in that broth and boom! five stars for sure! read more

Not priced well for what you get. I've been to better Vietnamese places that is cheaper in comparison. I understand that they are trying be fun with letting you choose your own toppings and broth but It would works better if everything was better executed in terms of taste and consistency. Today I got the banh mi with the cup of beef pho. The banh mi was better than what I had last time, the bread was airy yet crispy, like it should be and a good helping of the shaved pork. The last banh mi I had here felt like I was eating pound cake bread and it lacked a lot of pickled veggies. This is probably one of the worst beef pho I've had. The beef pho was not beef pho. Flavorless and bland, also it didn't come with veggies on the side. People had to consistently ask for it, it seems. It was overall okay for a taste of home but not great for something authentic. read more

I placed an order by phone for the location on Hickory. After I arrived, I was told it would be another 10 minutes. No problem! I paid and gave a 15% tip despite it being a pick-up order. Only one person was in the restaurant who ordered at the register ahead of me. He received his to-go order and left, which I found strange since I had ordered ahead of time. I waited for another 25 minutes as others came, ordered, and left. Eventually I stepped up to the to-go area and asked about my order. They pointed me to the line of four people, which I waited in - again, and asked for my order. Despite calling out both to-go and dine-in orders for everyone else at the counter my order had been sitting growing cold behind the register. I had to convince them I'd already paid - and left a tip - and finally got my food. I get home and I have no bean sprouts, no sauces, no flatware, and three sad pathetic pieces of tofu in my tofu pho. I will NOT be coming here again and I recommend you don't either. read more

Viet Bites - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

Really cute environment and the beef rare steak was the most tender beef I've ever had in pho, but not what I'm used to or prefer. The broth didn't taste like classic pho broth though (sweeter, blander), and I would've preferred more noodles considering the price. Overall, it's a nice, chill restaurant for a study break with good protein choices, but pho is something that should be left as is without any modifications, cause pretty soon it's just not truly pho anymore. read more
