Banh Cuon Hoa

This place is kind of hidden, to be honest I just ordered something random from the menu and cleaned the plate. Everything was tasty and good quality, service was on point and friendly. Will be putting this place into my lunch rotation and try more dishes.

There must have been a change in management! Banh cuon hoa used to be our favorite place for banh cuon and the variety of dishes that they offer. We have also brought friends and family over on many occasions over the years. Our most recent two visits have been disappointing to say the least. First visit - Feb 2024 We ordered banh cuon dac biet and bun rieu. Bun noodle came over-microwaved and soft. Banh cuon dac biet has some old meat fillings that tasted and smelled bad. Second visit - March 2024 We ordered hu tieu kho and banh cuon dac biet again to give this place another chance. Hu tieu kho came with the broth and mixing sauce bowls placed INSIDE and ON TOP of hu tieu and all the toppings. This tells how low the bar for food hygiene is. There was also a piece of plastic cling wrappers mixed inside the noodle. Banh cuon came out wrong at first, which could have been my fault for having a soft voice. They corrected the dish in the end. Unrelated to food or service, Vinahouse Club music was blasted at morning / lunch time, which made the experience even more unpleasant for us at both visits. If you are a Vinahouse fan, you may have found your place.

I've noted the frequency of the low ratings/reviews for this place. This was my first time dining in here (Nov. 2022) with a party of 8 people and we had a good experience. The service and timing was just fine, our server was very friendly although she did not speak much English. Most of our table ordered either the banh cuon dac biet or the banh uot dac biet and it was so delicious, for a great price. The steamed rice rolls were thin, everything was fresh, and the portions were plenty. If you're in the northern area of Houston, I'd definitely recommend this place for your Viet fix!

There are two entries for vegetarians. If you don't eat onions, make sure to let them know that you also don't eat fried onions. And make sure the sauce is not meat based. They brought us fish sauce; luckily we recognized it and asked for soy sauce.

Delicious food, make sure to get the coconut drink! And get the dac biet tbh - Hanoi sausage was good too

We came here on Saturday but it wasn’t crowded at all. Probably because we came after lunch. I ordered duck noodle soup and duck salad. The salad was delicious, especially with the sauce. However, the soup was tasteless. I ended up finishing the salad but not the soup. But I think the price is pretty cheap compared to other places. I think I’ll come back to try other dishes.

An unassuming vietnamese restaurant that specializes in Banh Cuon and Banh Uot. Its all so good and authentic. We typically order the Banh Cuon Dac Biet and comes with 3 rolls filled with rehydrated dried shrimp and 3 rolls with ground pork. Also on the side served with a sweet potato and shrimp fritter, bean sprouts, steamed pork sausage, and cured pork. Its all so delicious and a great value. Been coming here for years and never been disappointed.

Not a bad spot to grab your bánh cuốn. Cơm is also pretty good
