I ordered a tofu bahn mi. It is the best one I’ve had since moving from Oakland, California. I am used to eating from a very traditional point of view, and this is the first place to hit the nail on the head flavor wise. When I walked in, it was a very comforting family vibe to the spot. I knew then, it was going to be good. The staff was very kind hearted and happily greeted me as well as when I was departing. I now have found my favorite new spot, the sauce they added was also amazing. Going there was like a comforting hug.

Had a great dine-in experience a few months back. The complimentary yogurt after the meal was a yummy surprise. The restaurant is casual and cozy; service is friendly.
Tonight, I got take-out shrimp spring rolls and beef pho. Everything was packaged securely, however, the pho’s portion was less than when I dined in. There were plenty of noodles, but the broth container was not filled all the way to the top, and there was not enough beef. Also disappointed that there was no yogurt included in my to-go order.
Overall, 5/5, it’s a very authentic family owned and operated Vietnamese restaurant.

Stopped by this little cozy restaurant for lunch. I ordered the vermicelli with eggrolls and grilled pork, it was delicious! If I'm in the area again I would definitely be back!

This is such a wonderful little gem of a place! Three generations deep, family-owned restaurant. The food is great and reasonably-priced. WE went there the other night and the woman serving us had us cracking up and was so thoughtful. They also have a dedicated gluten free menu for those of us that need that!

Their menu is a little more varied and creative than typical Houston Viet restaurants. The pho broth is great. Their shrimp papaya salad is refreshing and excellent. They offer their Vietnamese coffee in decaf which is rare and a real treat for people looking to avoid a late day caffeine kick. They offered some viet vanilla yogurt on the way out, which is rich and decadent.

I’m new to Houston and on the hunt for the best Vietnamese food in town. I’ve had pho all over. New Mexico, all over Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Chicago, New York, Las Vegas... and now here. This is, without a doubt, the worst pho broth I’ve ever had in my life. Bland, murky, and downright unpleasant. I regret ordering from here and will never order again. If you actually know what good pho tastes like, skip this place.

A cosy, quietly charming Vietnamese spot that feels like a gentle exhale from the noisy world outside. Tucked away from the chaos of louder dining spots, no blaring music/TV here — just soft melodies in the background, warm lighting, and an unpretentious atmosphere that makes you want to linger. It’s a cosy place where you can actually hear your own thoughts or have an unhurried conversation. Not a common theme in the Houston restaurant scene these days when you just take your time to read a book with your meal :)
I had the pork vermicelli noodle bowl, and it was delicious — tender, flavorful pork with crisp vegetables, well cooked noodles, and rhe right drizzle of nuoc cham.
This isn’t a place trying to be flashy or trendy; it’s a place that knows exactly what it is - authentic, thoughtful, and quietly excellent.

Delicious and friendly family-owned spot. The owners are so sweet and helpful. After living in Houston for several years, this has been proven to be one of the best Vietnamese restaurants I've found. Highly recommend the Vietnamese hot coffee too!

Y’all need to check this place out. First off, we were warmly greeted as soon as we arrived and the service provided throughout our meal was top tier. The food was amazing. I had a classic beef banh mi, some pho broth, and a Vietnamese coffee. The coffee was made tableside and our waitress poured it expertly. We were greeted by the owner as well who checked on us to see if everything was okay, topping off my wife’s tea.
5 stars, no notes. Beautiful dining area with great music.

Delicious Pho with No MSG!
I had a great experience at this pho restaurant. What sets it apart is that their pho is made without any MSG, which is perfect for those who care about healthy, natural flavors. The broth is light and gentle on the palate, giving a clean and satisfying taste.
The beef is tender, and the shrimp are big and naturally sweet—very fresh and well-cooked. The desserts are excellent, incredibly tasty and well worth trying.
The staff are friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better.
One small suggestion: it would be even better if the restaurant could offer satay chili sauce and provide larger spoons for eating pho.🍜

A cozy yet warm restaurant, ideal for a refreshing escape and the background French music throughout the meal was enjoyable.
As for the appetizer and the main dish, they were fresh, tasty, and generously served. Demonstrating true culinary expertise — A lovely discovery to recommend in Houston! ♥️
