This place is located inside the big 99 cent Ranch. While walking in the building store, pass like 2 or 3 other stores and the restaurant will be on the right side. Order at the counter with the cashier. After ordering You can either have a seat and they will bring the food to you or wait on the left .
If you’re dining in they will provide a table cloth. Employee did help set the table. If you need bibs or butter you would have to ask for it. Napkin, silverware etc...

Took my out of town friend here who wanted a Houston seafood experience. He loved it, but as a vegetarian I was worried. Happy to report they were able to make me garlic noodles which were delicious! Came with crunchy fried garlic, jalapeños, green onions, and bean sprouts and basil on the side. It was really tasty and filling!

Recently placed an order through DoorDash - was my first time with their food.

Starting with the gumbo - it’s excellent. It is a play on traditional gumbo - but one that plays homage to both Viet and Cajun heritage. Super tasty. One minor thing - it did have some bones in it - wasn’t too fond of that.

The calamari basket was decent, and was served with great fries.

The sauces seemed to be homemade.
