50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants in Houston

“Very good service and superb food! A must-try when visiting downtown Houston.“

“Took my 3 very picky teenage daughters here for some pho. They loved it. Slurped up most of the broth. I had the crushed rice and grilled pork. It was amazing. Love the sauteed green onions on the perfectly cooked crushed rice. Looking forward to trying their banh mis.“

“Such a great experience here! The man who works here is very sweet, kind, and incredibly hospitable. Even though I ordered my food to go, he made me feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of.

The pork roll bánh mì sandwiches are AMAZING. Very fresh, full of flavor, and generously filled with meat. The portions were very satisfying and made for a perfect lunch. I also loved how thoughtful the packaging was. They even cut out part of the box so the bread does not get soggy, which is such a smart and appreciated touch.

The Vietnamese coffee is so good. I added boba and it was delicious. They even placed the cup inside a bag just in case it dripped, which was perfect.

Everything was excellent from start to finish. I left feeling warm, welcomed, and very happy with my meal. I will definitely be back.“

“Amazing food & the best service!!“

“Thank you, Tommy, for the great service! My husband and I loved Pho Con Bo on Veterans Memorial Drive. We recommend Bánh Xèo, also known as Vietnamese Pancakes. The Phở is phenomenal with extra tender beef. I also had an avocado ? smoothie which was made with fresh avocado. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Great Customer service and friendly staff. Food came out fast and smelled delicious. Soup was the best I’ve had. I would definitely come back“

“The crawfish & shrimp boil sauce was so hella good. It does not disappoint at all. Just trust 💯

The pasta, fries, & boudin balls was a hit too, if the seafood boil isn't your cup of tea.

Everything was so good, we had to order to go to have our kids try all this goodness.“

“el mejor arroz frito que e comido“

“After reading all the reviews, I chose to take my sister here before a doctors appointment. The food and service was incredible. Prompt service, seating, and ordering. Excellent fish sauce, which is important to me, since I can't stand peanut sauce, though my sister loved it. The summer rolls were tight, full and did not fall apart until the last bite. crispy and delicious spring rolls. Just an excellent experience from start to finish. The fish sauce was so good, I wanted to purchase 2 3oz containers to go, and I'm still not sure if I was charged for them. I didn't care, and I didn't check.“

“Definitely worth ordering“

“We recently found this restaurant and we enjoyed every dish so far. The com tam is on point. Pork chop is tender and is marinated well. My wife had the banh canh Saigon and she said it was flavorful. The bun bo hue was also very flavorful. Staff is friendly and the service is quick. I will be coming back. Highly recommend.“

“Food was hot and good. Could've had more spice but edible and it hit the spot“

“The shaking beef is soft. I love it! Mintmelon tea is delicious! Very reasonable prices. Food is 10/10“

“Bánh Mì Bon is a great and friendly place! Love the food and the customer service i get every time i come! Highly recommend!“

“Very clean restaurant and delicious food“

“Great craft beer selections on tap and very good food!“

“First time trying this place based on an article I saw from Eatery and it did not disappoint! It was so satisfying that I decided to write this 5 star review right away. I got the banh mi thit nuong (bbq pork baguette) and the seasoning was just right with a slight buttery taste on the baguette. The baguette was soft and fluffy yet still maintained a little crispiness on the outside but not to where it will injure the upper roof of your mouth. Anyway the banh mi thit nuong reminds me of this other place I used to love but stopped going there because quality went down. Glad I tried this place and this will be my go-to banh mi shop from now on! I will definitely be back to try the other banh mi! I hope they maintain their quality!“

“Wow we ate lunch at the new Viet restaurant on Eldridge Parkway and it was excellent. Service was great, oysters were outstanding as well as the spring rolls,steamed dumplings and Pho. Great atmosphere also. Can’t wait to go back.“

“They have the best Hot and Sour Soup! I have missed Miss Saigon since they moved from their rice village location. I’ve tried other Vietnamese Hot and Sour soup and nothing compares. Their banh mi and spring rolls are delicious. When I was pregnant and had an aversion to beef , they happily made me a meatless banh mi. ☺️🤤 I can’t wait to introduce my little foodie son to Miss Saigon.“

“Best Pho this side of town. I've tried pho at other places after coming back here a few times and now I'm hooked. I won't go anywhere else for pho. The service and the owners are the sweetest too 10/10 highly recommend this place.“

“Amazing place, the food is delicious“

“Bánh bao, Bánh mì, Bò né ở Thiem Hung BakeryCafe rất ngon“

“This is the place to enjoy good food & affordable. No pretentiousness to it. Nice employers & a calm atmosphere. They've got a unique combination of food. The classic Bahn MI is good. The iced coffee is good, & some other dishes are tasty. Enjoy“

“I come here all the time just to order two orders of their largest size egg roll order. GREAT FLAVOR and texture defo handmade or high quality for sure! Perfect for wrapping and lettuce with cilantro and basil, jalapeños, etc., and then dipping in the fish sauce they provide.

I’ve tried their soups as well and they are equally as awesome. Definitely don’t skip out on the other dishes other than the pho!!! Cause their Bum ba hui is very good! Sorry autocorrect wouldn’t let me type it without changing it xD their spicy pork soups and wonton soups are great too.

When I ordered and asked for to go boxes the lady at the register said ‘you ate TWO ORDERS?!’ Incredulously which I think thought was hilarious and awesome. They probably took it as a compliment that I liked it enough to eat two whole portions even for being a smaller sized guy lol“

“Great food and very friendly“

“3 stars because it is flaming hot inside and I couldn’t eat comfortably. Definitely need to have AC and not small fans running throughout the restaurant. Authentic and very tasty Vietnamese food. Com tam had a great portion and everything tasted amazing. Food was flavorful. I’d come back to try the banh mi here next. $6.50 for banh mi and $14 for a plate of com tam. Price is very fair. Couldn’t pay by credit card for some reason even though there was a machine to process, they wanted me to Zelle.“

“First time here, and will say we will be regulars especially with the daily specials! Had the new cheeseburger which was outstanding, the char was brilliant, the flavor amazing and not greasy. The happy hour drinks went down a dream and the wings are A1! So much more to explore on the menu next time will post pics! Service team are everything you want in hospitality!! 5*“

“Brisket Bahn Mi with bone marrow butter and a cup of pho for dipping. Second time here love it. Absolutely delicious!“

“Stopped in for the first time today and I’m so glad I did. I ordered the Pork Banh Mi and shrimp eggrolls to-go and everything was excellent. I was in a rush, and they had my food out fast. The banh mi was incredible—tender grilled pork and perfectly crisp, soft bread. The place looks simple from the street but is clean and welcoming inside. I’ve definitely found my new go‑to lunch spot. Great food, quick service, and very reasonable prices.“

“Very delicious made to order food

Surprised at their prices being so low for so much organic food. I think that’s cause of location. I’ve been back three times since first coming

Family owned and ran“

“A lot of Thai restaurants in the area but Thai Jasmine is hands down the best! We’ve been coming here for years (when they have had other locations) and the food has always been consistently great. The owners are such great people and so nice. The food is also great priced! The Tom Kha soup is so flavorful and always a must get. The drunken noodles, pad Thai, fried rice, Tom Yum soup, and curries are other dishes you can’t go wrong with, we switch out between these when we go. There is something for everybody, and they have boba drinks/thai tea as well. Five stars always!“

“Perfect bahn mi. -- terrific crusty, tender roll, excellent grilled chicken, very flavorful and well presented in its cute little basket. Nice decor, excellent service, clean, nice ambiance. love this place -- our standards for vietnamese are now a whole new level. YUM!!“

“Small, unassuming, mom and pop shop. The place was a little dark when we stepped in. You can tell it's family owned. Everyone was nice and friendly. They have Chinese and Vietnamese food options. I was craving bbq ribs so ordered Chinese dishes. My suggestion is to order anything lo mein. Really good. Their prices are very reasonable. If you don't care about fancy flair and fluff, this is the place to come eat. Food is affordable, tasty, and fills your belly. Note: watch out for the chili 🌶️ sign. If it says spicy, it is SPICY.“

“I moved to Austin 4 years ago and every time I come to visit my parents in Houston, it’s a must that I come visit here. The perfectly baked bread, the incredible pork, the fresh smoothies, the amount of toppings, THE PRICE??? Omg… the price!!! I miss these prices. So many memories of going here with all of my friends as broke teenagers just looking for a cheap filling meal, and always being met with love and respect from the staff. Get the grilled pork spring rolls, a grilled pork banh mi, and an avocado smoothie. If you’re asking yourself “is this too much pork?” The answer is no. It’s delicious, you’ll be doing yourself a favor. Mekong, I love you, never change.“

“The vegan beef was absolutely heavenly; the texture was soooooooo good. The prices are also good compared to normal food (good portion size too) and esp so compared to other priced up vegan food.

Their service was great too (patient with my grandparents) and very accommodating/careful of my nut & peanut allergy - informing me which dishes are fried in the same place nut dishes are. I’ll be coming back here repeatedly!“

“The food is delicious and worth recommending“

“One of the bear Pho and Vietnamese food in town“

“This place has great food, great teas and great coffee. Very relaxing and friendly atmosphere. I’m a regular, I have tried everything on the menu as far as food and working on the drink menu. So far everything is good and the price is fair. The staff is incredibly friendly, Ashley, Ruby and Thuy and the male barista have always taken good care of my family and I, and our orders are always correct. Even when we get a bit picky on certain items and how we want them. They always accommodate us. This is a great place. I’m usually always on the go so I don’t stay, but place is very nice and calm. This is my regular spot now. The staff is really amazing. Thank you Ashley, Ruby, Thuy! My family and I always feel welcomed“

“I have been to this Hương Sen restaurant a few times. Today, my friend and I came here for a late lunch. Their food always tastes so good. I like their ginger lemongrass cold tea drink; it's so refreshing. The restaurant is very small and cozy, but it has beautiful decorations and a temple interior design. Their service is always good. The owner is a very nice person. I would definitely recommend that everyone come here to try out their vegetarian dishes. You won't be disappointed.“

“delicious food and great service“

“Fast and friendly service. Pho broth was rich and savory. Chef came out to check on us. They really care about their customers!“

“Phục vụ Tốt - Thức ăn ngon Tinh thần Vui vẻ . ATBĐ Houston TX“

“The jasmine cream bubble tea actually had enough bubbles to last me through the entire tea! Tea itself was spot-on: I could taste the jasmine and the cream and it had just the right amount of sweetness. The chicken banh mi was delicious! Good, crusty bread with really tasty chicken and the right ratio of bread to fillings. The right amount of food, too. I was comfortably full but not overwhelmingly stuffed to the gills. 10/10, will eat here again! I’m looking forward to trying more of the menu :D“

“Why are you are not eating here when they are open 7 days a week, with great prices, and cool vibes of Vietnamese bolero singers like ho hoang yen serenading you while eating some of the best food in Houston Texas? Why?

and!!!! the owners + family who run it (for decades) are so nice and friendly, I love this place!

Tell Everyone Bring Everyone!!!

The tofu is amazing. The stir-fry noodles with little crunchy edges are amazing. The homemade lemonade is amazing. The pork is amazing. The Yu Choy is amazing. The bean sprouts and veggies are always extremely fresh, crispy, cooked perfectly, and overall everything I have had so far is amazing.“

“Very sweet little spot to pop in for with lots of unique menu options! Pho was a pleasant light broth and they were generous with the basil. Fried egg rolls were super fresh and delicious. Wait staff were friendly and professional. This was an excellent stop in.“

“Small and quaint Banh Mi shop, likely family owned, menu has banh mi and some meat and carb plates, staff is very friendly, I can speak of the very fresh and tasty banh mi with descent amount of fillings and a good sized baguette, price is great too.“

“Love everything about this place the pho is fantastic 🥰“

“Came with my family and we really enjoyed our time. We don’t care much for service/atmosphere mucu but if you do, the service is fine. Waiters will come by when they have time to check in and maybe when you call them. The restaurant definitely isn’t the cleanest. The floors are sticky and there is some food from previous customers. The tables are wiped down and I’m overall comfortable eating there.

THE FOOD 10/10 - We ordered banh beo, banh bot loc, cha hue, banh ram it, cha oc, and got the salted kumquat juice. We loved all of the food. The nuoc mam is definitely sweet but that’s how my family likes it. The kumquat juice is so so good, I want to learn how to make my own salted kumquat preserve. Would definitely come again for the food we tried today.“

“great food they get to know thier patrons“

“I've tried many pho places around the Katy area and had yet find anything that tasted close to the real thing and wanted a place that focused on a good broth and not just the toppings such as meats and the noodles.

I finally found the place and it's been hidden from me as I drive home each day. This place has been open and family-runned for 10 years. Her broth has bones that's been simmering for hours and the flavors come out. The broth doesn't taste like MSG compared to other places who use a ton of MSG. MSG makes foods taste good, but don't over do it and this place did exactly that. Her broth was smelled so good and flavorful, it complimented the meats and noodles. Please give this place a try, you won't regret it.“
