Completely unprofessional behavior by the staff of this restaurant, I never leave 1 stars but I just had to. I ordered the buy 1 get 1 free “Mi Quang” on DoorDash only for them to give me the wrong order and by wrong order i mean two large trays of food that I didn’t order. In the tray there was dry noodles and in the second tray, a mix of meats.The dasher couldn’t return the food because he would be breaking protocol as we had already opened the tray and you can’t give that to a customer. Instead of them to taking their L and remaking this order for the supposed customer, what did they do? Threaten to report the dasher and mind you this was around 12am. Now the poor dasher had to be woken up from sleep and his girlfriend also has to get involved. I don’t even want the tray as I was contemplating trashing it the very next day but the fact they handled it this way, completely unprofessional I DO NOTT RECOMMEND!!!

I really wanted to like this place and support a small Vietnamese business. We ordered a lot:
-Bún riêu ($13)
-Chicken wings ($17 – kinda pricey!)
-Fried rice special ($15)
-Vietnamese coffee

Portions were big, so that’s a plus! But something was off with the flavors.

The vibe? Felt like half restaurant, half club. I was waiting for someone to grab a mic and start karaoke! 😂

The real problem: the tofu and fish cake in my bún riêu were sour – like they forgot if they partied too long in the fridge. My stomach said no thank you.

On the bright side, service was super kind, and the owner was understanding when I spoke to her in Vietnamese. I respect that a lot.

I’m sharing this not to be harsh, but I hope it helps the restaurant improve.

Ordered the bún bò huế, fish sauce wings, and the beef tendon salad. Bbh was full of flavor and meat, wings were so flavorful, and beef tendon salad was addicting. The ladies here were so sweet. It was empty when we went around 5pm but it looks like a place that gets busy/lit later at night. They have happy hour everyday from 6-9pm and they also have karaoke. Great place for good viet food and drinks. Will be back soon!

The Best Bo Beef anywhere off Bellaire Blvd. If you are Viet, all of the servers know Vietnamese also.

Amazing authentic Vietnamese food here. Tasted just like viet nam. Looks like they have karaoke here as well at night. I tried the bun rieu and it felt like I was eating in sai gon with reasonable prices too. Also tried the cafe den da... the cup is massive.. everything is huge in texas😂👀

Spacious Vietnamese gem tucked away on the edge of Chinatown. My husband and I both ordered the vermicelli bowls - they were good portion sizes, super flavorful, had lots of fresh veggies, and came with Vietnamese spring rolls. Fast and friendly service. Pay at the counter whenever you are ready to go. Will be back soon.

I came in Tuesday around 1am and the girl behind the counter saw me standing at the counter for a few mins, came to write something down on a post it note and completely ignored me. I tried to get her attention but she walked away. I walked out of the restaurant without getting anything.

Definitely not what I was expecting.
I live in Kingwood and I was sick and wanted pho. Only this and a place in Conroe was open.
I chose this place because I figured Bellaire had to have good ass pho, open late on a Tuesday night?
I always make the wrong choice.
Anyway we are walking across the parking lot and hearing bass and thumping which is odd for a Tuesday night. We walk in expecting that noise was next door. Wrong. It was here. Haze, max volume, a bored DJ and an empty room that looks like a club and an eatery in one. The people who worked there were the only living people in the whole establishment. They were gracious. Never seen Asian women with BBLs but this whole experience was a first. I look over the menu, trying to not be overwhelmed by the loud party music blaring in this empty room for no reason and didn’t see pho, the only reason I drove 45 mins in the first place. No pho. Great. So we get bun thit nuong. It is okay. Noodles too soft for my liking. It’s my fiancé’s first time trying it. He doesn’t finish, so I assume he doesn’t like it. Hard not to like bun thit nuong. But this place managed it somehow.
Anyway if it were a Saturday night, the loud music wouldn’t have been so out of place but that just really was bad. The staff were very kind and friendly and helpful and they get 5 stars for that. But the food and atmosphere? Not for me.

I decided on a whim to come here to grab takeout for lunch. The staff was super friendly and made recommendations. I decided to go with their suggestions since it was my first time. I loved everything. I ordered the filet mignon cubes and grilled pork, along with the spring rolls. Everything was a great portion size and tasted amazing. Definitely will be back to dine in.
