Best Restaurant’s Houston’s Asiatown | Eater Houston

"Further down the stretch of Bellaire Boulevard, in the My Hoa Food Market strip center, this no-fuss restaurant serves a variety of traditional, lesser-known Vietnamese dishes. Start off with the banh khot — mini crunchy and savory pancakes topped with shrimp, then opt for a bowl of robust and pungent bun mam, a fermented fish noodle soup. For something more adventurous, try the signature Pha Lau Houston, a rich and herbal pork meat and offal stew served with crusty French bread for dipping." - Eater Staff

If you're looking for authentic Vietnamese food, you'll definitely find it at Bun Nhan Quan. They have a very extensive menu with a variety of items to choose from. This restaurant also has communal seating. Please keep this in mind if you're more used to a private dining experience. This was our first time sitting with other people and it took a few minutes before we got acclimated. We ordered some of the most popular dishes and they were all on point! Banh Khot - These mini shrimp pancakes were light and crispy, very delicious 😋 Bun Dau Mam Tom - This dish comes with rice noodles, meats, herbs, tofu, and shrimp sauce. Extremely fresh and authentic! Phal Lau Houston - This is basically an offal stew with bread. Definitely flavorful but the seasoning was leaning more on the sweeter side. Bot Chien - These fried taro cakes were fried to perfection. Card payments are accepted but a discount will be given for those who pay with cash 😊 For the overall experience, will definitely recommend just for the food alone. The communal seating is the only drawback.

Overall: decent place to hit up for viet food, especially if you’re craving later in the night. Food: came here for the bot chien and it was definitely tasty - just let it soak in the sauce! The bun bo hue was alright but nothing too amazing. Price was a little more expensive than I’d like as it was $17 per dish Service: could’ve been better imo as it took forever for our food to come out (maybe like 25-30 mins) but it did seem like we came when the store was already packed at night. Our server was nice though and we communicated in viet Atmosphere: the layout gives me authentic viet restaurant vibes as the seating arrangement was share style with other parties and the condiments were just there on the table already. The random viet videos on the tvs was the final touch lol

Stopped by here on a whim as I was in the area and just searched for some Vietnamese food. There was a decent amount of guests so I thought I would give it a try. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue (spicy beef noodle) and a kumquat tea. Both were very good. The bun bo hue was just perfect with its broth and seasonings. Usually I would have to add some fish sauce or shrimp paste but this one was perfect. They give you so much meat I finished the noodles before I could finish all the meat. The kumquat tea was also really good but it's sooo strong! Just beware because I came at dinner time so I couldn't sleep til like 3am. That tea is strong! Standard and traditional Vietnamese fare. No frills with expensive or fancy decor but the food and value is exceptional. I will definitely try out their other offerings the next time I'm in the area for sure.

They have the best bahn knot! So crispy yet creamy in the middle. Love the soup as well.

Spent two days checking out Houston's Viet Town. Got the Canh Bun and it was outstanding. Everything coming out of the kitchen looked fantastic. Sad that I probably won't be able to come here again. Of the several restaurants I stopped at in the area this one was the best. Would be great to come here with a large group to share a lot of dishes.

Came to this restaurant for dinner for the first time, food preparation was quick, friendly staff and good recommendation for food options. The flavour here is delicious, remind me of southern flavor food in VietNam. I would give 5 stars for most of the popular dishes that I tried. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

My favorite place for Vietnamese food since they have a lot of options so it’s super convenient when I take my group of friends there and each of us has different choices. From noodles to rice to snails. They have so many to choose from the various menu. My most favs are: bún đậu mắm tôm, mì xào phá lấu, canh bún, bún thái, and bột chiên (they have the best bột chiên in town with the super crispy outsite). The service is so so, not bad but not thing special. They’re really busy on the weekend & holidays but wait time for food is just around 20 minutes.

The food here is very authentic and delicious! Came here for lunch and they were busy but seated us immediately. Service was fast and friendly! Every dish we tried tasted amazing. Food came out hot and fresh. We loved their banh khot and grilled scallops so much that we had to order another round. Their noodle/bun soup bowls were also delicious! We tried their bun mam and it was worth it! Highly recommend this place and we will be returning!

Ordered Banh Khot to go and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food. Flavor tasted very authentic and I called in the order and the food was ready within the next 10 minutes upon arrival. Service was quick and ambience felt like a normal Vietnamese location, averagely clean. I did notice there was a sign saying that there is an automatic creativity on parties of five or more so that is something to keep in mind if choosing to dine with a large party . overall, the food was good and if I were back in the area and craving banh khot, I would come again.

Just your typical Vietnamese diner, food tastes decent but service isn't great at all. The big guy serving our food had dirty hands, touching his face sweat then handing us our food. Our entree came out first then our appetizer 10 min after. I won't be coming back considering there's so many viet restaurants all over Bellaire.

Amazing authentic viet food in Bellaire! Two biggest thing that attracted me to come here was the Bot Chien (fried taro cake) & Banh Khot (mini shrimp pancake) & both did not disappoint. They had an excellent crunch and tasted delicious. The portion size was great as well and perfect for sharing with a group of 4. Excellent two appetizers. The Vietnamese coffee was also strong and tasty! I wanted to try something i've never tried before and soupy-ish so I ordered the Banh Canh Cua. It was quite tasty, seafood/crab based dish and came with udon noodles, shrimp, pork, veggies, blood sausage. It hit the spot! The Com Tam Dac Biet was amazing as well. They most importantly used broken rice which makes a huge diff in this dish. Portion size was good and filling. They used pork And marinated well. The scallion grilled scallops was also a unique dish. Paired well with the peanuts, scallions and sauces you could top it off with. Good amount of seating and parking is within the My Hoa plaza. Payment will be taken at the cashier. The servers were also attentive as well. Deff get the Bot Chien & Banh Khot!!!

The food tasted really authentic. Our favorites would have to be the Banh Khot Vung Tau and Banh Khot. They were crisp to perfection at the edges and full of flavor, the nuoc mam and veggies paired perfectly with it. Also ordered the Oc Canada (snails), the seasoning was delicious, but felt like they skimped on the quantity for the price we paid for. Didn't get a picture of the grilled squid or the grilled scallops that we also ordered. Grilled squid was yummy but was pretty spicy, the sauce that it came with has a kick to it as well but was so good. The grilled scallops was the worst dish we had ordered. Scallops tasted like it had freezer burn and no flavor even though it was doused in the garlic onion, almost tasted plasticky. Inside can get pretty hectic and loud but I guess it kind of gives off the local Vietnam vibes. Servers were meh, felt rushed to order and they were not very attentive when it comes to refilling waters, but honestly kind of expected for a Vietnamese joint. Overall, I would still come back here to try some other dishes and the Banh Khot Vung Tau again!

Came here with a friend when we were feeling a bit adventurous and wanted to try Vietnamese food that we haven't tried before. The restaurant itself was a lot bigger than I expected, and had an ample amount of seating! We ordered bun mam, pha lau, and bot chien, but I was eyeing all the other food on the menu too! Other than the bot chien, I had no idea what to expect for the dishes that we had ordered. The bun nam was very light and still flavorful from the fish and vegetables inside. The pha lau reminded me of the special tripe dish I sometimes order at dimsum restaurants, and the banh mi that came with it was sooo delicious/had the perfect crunch and fluff. Everything was solid, and I really want to come back to try other items on the menu!

I visited this newish vietnamese restaurant one Sunday for lunch. I heard it had a lot of similar dishes from other vietnamese restaurants, but they just cook it differently here. I came with a small group, and we tried a couple of apps (banh bot chien and banh khot) and several dishes. I wasn't in the mood for their soups, so I just stuck to something interesting they make, chicken fried rice. The chicken fried rice is not what most would think, instead it's a fried chicken quarter with an orange marinade, along with a side of fried rice, acup of pho broth, a weird orange sauce to dip your chicken, and a cup of soy sauce. Pretty simple sish but it was pretty tasty. Overall, though, service was just average at best as this is Chinatown, the far western extent to be exact.

One of those hole in the wall kind of place. Walking in, you can pretty much expect that the Viet food will be good. They do have English on the menu and the staff speaks a bit of English. It was a bit crowded but we got seated after a few minutes of waiting. They have a variety of Viet dishes on the menu from soup noodles, appetizers, and seafood. Their banh bot chien is probably one of their most popular dish and it was extra crispy. Exactly what you would expect it to be and the sauce goes so well with it. The bun rieu oc is what I was looking forward to because it's one of those Viet dish that you don't see it often on the menu. I'm always looking for the best I can find and this one was at the top of the list. Flavorful broth and you can tell from looking at the color. We also had the pha lau which was my first time trying. Not everyone's cup of tea. It's like a curry broth with offal so beware if this isn't something you're used to. Also comes with bread to dip in the broth. Service was a bit slow, it was packed inside. Definitely worth checking out.

Let me just start with saying that this place does their Bún (noodle soup) dishes very well. From Bún bò huế (spicy beef noodle soup) to Bún riêu (crab&pork tomato noodle soup) , their noodle soup dishes are phenomenal and brings forward the culture of Vietnamese cuisine. Their portions are no joke, they include every detail like tofu and chả while maintaining a flavorful broth in each dish. For the more explorative peeps, the Bún Đậu Mắm Tôm (vermicelli with fermented shrimp paste) the sauce was tasty (sweet)! This is not a dish that you can commonly find so it was nice to see it being highlighted as their special dish. The Bánh khọt (mini savory pancakes) was a fun dish to eat if you wanted to change up the texture. It was a great crunchy mixture of sweet and savory with the coconut and nước mắm (fish sauce), this dish has to be eaten quickly as they get soggy after being left out. The place can get crowded on a weekend with a bigger party (ours was 10 people) but the service was quick and our food came out in an orderly manner. I would definitely recommend this place as it does a great job showcasing Việt food.

Bun mam was pungent (in a good way) and full of flavor. I loved the addition of eggplant. The giant chili pepper took me for a surprise because I thought it'd be the spice level of a bell pepper but it was in fact the spice of a Thai chili pepper. Definitely add some chili paste or oil as well as lime to elevate the broth. The banh bot chien was nothing special, but I liked the fresh bite of papaya. As for the pha lau, I enjoyed it a lot actually! For someone who doesn't usually enjoy intestines, these were pretty easy to eat and the broth was very savory and delicious.

def one of the best viet spots in houston and a spot i keep coming back to! more expensive compared to other spots but the portions are large and i always have leftovers. there's a lot of different items on the menu so there's something for everyone. everything ive had so far has been really good but it is on the sweeter side. their bánh bột chiên and bánh khọt are both super crispy! the grilled meat that comes with the cơm tấm đặc biệt is also marinated really well and the nuoc mam/sauce it comes with has a unique flavor i think it has kumquat (?) tip: - if you need extra spice make sure to ask them for fresh chili peppers - if you pay with cash you get a 5% discount ig: @whatsviveating

Parking lot was pretty packed by the restaurant so it was a hot stroll to the restaurant. It's not as small but it's very packed inside. We ordered the bun rieu oc, Banh khot, the organs in coconut broth and butter garlic sauce. The bun rieu was good, the oc was good. I didn't like that organ in the coconut broth. I've never had it and I won't try it again. I like organs in a ginger dip sauce which they do give you. The Banh khot was ok. It was crispy outside but I did not like how mushy the inside of it was. I've never had Banh khot with a mushy interior. We'll be back to try other dishes.

We came here when we visit Houston, and even my picky Vietnamese parents gave this place 5 Stars! The bo luc lac was my favorite, it was so tender and flavorful with big chunks of garlic. The rice it comes with is delicious as well!

I had this placed bookmarked and I'm not actually sure where I heard about it but I was showing a friend the photos one night and we decided to make the long trip out during rush hour traffic to give it a try. The restaurant looked like any hole-in-the-wall on Bellaire, not nice by all means, but clean and there were lots of regulars during dinner time, which was a good sign. My friend ordered the Bun Mam (fermented fish noodle soup) and I ordered the Bun Bo Hue (spicy beef noodle soup). My son had the Banh Canh (Tapioca Noodle in a Pork broth and I had to try the lemongrass snails. The dishes looked fantastic when they came out. My friend said the Bun Mam was a bit on the sweet side and wasn't the best she's had. I had to agree with that statement when it came to the Bun Bo Hue as well. Though there was a decent amount of meat in the bowl. The Banh Canh was on the sweet side as well and the lemongrass snails were very bland. The broth didn't make it into the snails at all. Disappointed but at least we tried!

This is quite possibly one of the best Vietnamese hole in the wall places you'll ever eat at. I saw a few photos of some potential dishes and knew exactly what I wanted to order. I was mostly sold on the banh khot dish and bot chien. Everything else, I wanted to be a surprise. Bun Rieu - there was so much depth of flavor in the broth. the noodles were nice and chewy with a bite. the tofu was soaked in broth and bursting with umami flavor. the tomatoes had a balance of soggy to firm ratio. and lastly the shrimp meatball was delectable Banh Bot Chien - quite the take on fried egg and fried rice/tapioca cake. the crispiness of the fried banh bot chien was possibly one of the best fried goodness that has landed in my mouth. dip it in the sauce they provide and its pure goodness. the fried egg is on top and not cracked and cooked in between. Banh Khot - ah the BEST dish of the visit. the crunch to soft ratio, plus every bite I took just put my soul into heaven. I didn't want it to end, even when my stomach was coming to it's fullness. The dish took a bit of time to come out and it was well worth the wait. I couldn't stop smiling of how good this dish was. I even posted it on instagram and received so many responses of where to find it. I wasn't going to gatekeep, cause I want my friends to know where to find this gem. Salted Kumquat - I feel as though this is an acquired taste. If you didn't grow up drinking this, then it might not be for you. But for me, it was delicious! Just wait for the ice to dilute a little bit and it's perfection. No one speaks an ounce of English, and that's when you know this place is legit. Authentic. Quite possible one of the best Vietnamese hole in the wall. It's enough for me to bring my mom here to not miss out on.

We visited for the 2nd time today and were so pleased with our experience. The food is exceptional. I was especially impressed with the service as all of the staffs were so friendly. We requested to sit outside because we have pet and they were happily serving us and being sure we got everything we need. We live far from Houston so whenever we eat out here, we are pretty picky. This place is now in my go-to list. 10/10!

One of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants in Houston for Banh Khot! Banh Khot is a savory little pancake with shrimp in the middle. It's described as a pancake but its more like a mini muffin with incredibly crisp edges thanks to the special cast iron pan its cooked in. If you like Banh Xeo, this is like it's fun younger sister! You eat it wrapped in all the fresh greens and dipped into fish sauce. So so good. The crisp edges, the bite of shrimp contrasted with the leafy greens dipped in the fish sauce is like heaven on earth. The portion is HUGE and is definitely meant to share. My plate came with 10 pieces and was so delicious. My jaw DROPPED when they placed it on our table. I also ordered the pickled kumquat drink (a must) and the coconut snails. Yes, coconut snails or Öc Len Xão Dua! These little suckers are deliciously cooked in a lemongrass coconut sauce. Pro tip on how to eat these - open up the bottom and suck it out! You get the perfect combo of sauce and snails! Some are a little harder to get out so use the provided mini forks. Love this place and always a recommended restaurant as a Vietnamese gal.

The food was so good with good portions. Service was also really fast. Just don't go too late then there's a long wait. Love the noodle dishes, the balut in tamarind sauce, the banh bot Chien is so good. Banh khôt is amazing too. Definitely will go back soon

Không hiểu sao cái quán này mà được 4 stars? mình ăn thử một số món ỡ đây món nào cũng rất dở. mà lẽ ra mình cũng không review sau khi ăn thấy dở đâu. nhưng hôm qua mình vừa order bún mắm ở đây về tức đỏ mặt luôn nên giờ mình muốn viết lên đây cho mọi người xem. bún mắm, nước lèo không có một chút gì là mùi mắm. mùi y như bún riêu ốc. mình tưởng mình order lộn. nhìn lại là nước lèo của bún mắm mà.?? còn về topping. mẹ ơi. Cá thì bị ương hôi quá. mực cũng bị hôi mà giống như để lâu lắm rồi mới đem ra bán. heo quay thì khỏi nói. 2 cục mỡ không có chút thịt luôn. chả cá thì hôi mùi cỏ. còn bún thì bị hôi luôn. rồi xem như cái phần bún mắm này của mình vào xọt rác rồi. mình phải ngậm ngùi đi tự nấu nước lèo mắm lên lại để ăn cho bõ tức. làm ăn kiểu vậy không có lâu đâu. sớm sẽ đăng lên bán tiệm cho xem. mà khổ nỗi khi đăng lên bán tiệm sẽ nói là lý do busy không thời gian chăm sóc, chuyện gia đình ...blah blah. Lý do này nhà hàng ế nào cũng đem ra, không ai tự nhận là nấu ăn dỡ quá bị ế.

Service was super quick and you know the food is made fresh because it does take some time to cook once it's ordered depending on what you order. I was in Houston for two weeks and went here twice! They're always packed whether you go on a Saturday or a Wednesday. We tried their com suong , canh bun, banh canh cua, pha lau and banh khot both styles! It was honestly all delicious! The pha lau and cảnh bun are a must try!!

This place is a great hole in the wall spot for a variety of Vietnamese dishes. The service was fast and my friend and I were seated quickly despite how packed it was on a Monday night. We first ordered the HỘT VỊT LỘN XÀO ME (Tamarind sauce balut) for an appetizer and it was a good choice. The dish comes with three eggs and was topped with the tamarind sauce, fried pork fat/onion bits, roasted peanuts, and laksa leaves. For the main dish, we got the Bánh Canh Cua (tapioca noodle soup with crab). This was the first time I tried Bánh Canh Cua and I was a little taken back by how strong the fishy taste was but for my Vietnamese friend, she said it was perfect so I trust her critique more than mine. To lighten the soup, I added some lime juice and it was good. Something I really appreciated about this dish is the large amount of crab meat they put in. There were also loads of other toppings like shrimp, pork blood, pork feet, quail egg, and cha lua (pork roll).

No customer service! Waited to get seated, once seated they put down two menus and told me to write in the order book what we wanted to order. Even in third world countries (such as Vietnam) do not do this type of non service. Table is still sticky, piece of bean sprout was still on table. We understand hole-in-the-wall but this is on another level. Here is the menu, here is order book, write what you want and give it back to me when you made up your mind. Utensils are one the table, already, do you want me to go back and cook my own food then, prepare and bring out the food myself? This is blame on the restaurant owners, not directly on the servers, they either allow this or agreed to this non-service and are too cheap to hire correctly.

Went there with some of my family for the first time... then two days later again with my boyfriend. It's a great place to go if you're looking for variety, you know how most vietnamese's places specialize in one thing and everything else taste eh.. throw that mentality out the window this place does EVERYTHING great. I will say the only thing Ill note is their Vietnamese's Ice Coffee is way too small for the price, besides that everything is great especially the bun rieu, taste better than my grandmas!!

this is one of my favorite vietnamese restaurants in houston! i would definetly check out the bún đậu mắm tôm, the hột vịt lộn xào me and bánh khọt. if you're looking for authentic vietnamese food this is the closest thing you're going to get. the service here is also fine nothing too special but it's no where near bad, just a casual eatery. the restaurant is also very clean but beware the parking lot is usually pretty full since there's a vietnamese grocery store nearby.

Our friends said this place serves authentic Vietnamese food and sold us on the Bot Chien. So we decided to give this place a try. It did not disappoint at all. Every single dish was amazing! Their banh bot chien was crispy and instead of cooking with scrambled eggs, they use fried eggs. It was so good! The crisp texture with the runny eggs was to die for. You must remind them you don't want the overdone fried eggs. We ordered the seafood banh khot which had a variety of shrimp, beef and squid. I'm used to eating it with shrimp only but I like that there is variety for those who are allergic to shellfish. The banh khot is bigger than what I know as normal size but I like it. The shrimp are big and the beef was a nice change. My companions thought the squid would be better if it were sliced thinner but it didn't bother me at all. It was tender and not chewy. Some say it is too doughy but ours was crispy. The snails in coconut milk was so yummy and the blood clams were very good, not too chewy. The hu tieu was very clean and full of flavor. The only thing missing for me is the dried crispy shrimp and the chicharon. We also ordered the bun rieu which is a disappointment in many restaurants but not this place. It was beyond good. I've brought other friends here in the last two weeks and they love the food. It is definitely one of my fave Vietnamese restaurants here in Houston.

The food was pretty good. Service was good, but food was a bit slow coming out. I had the Beef organ stew and it was pretty good. I was full when I finished the dish. It wasn't too crowded when we arrived, so that was nice. The other dish arrived when I was almost finished eating, so it was a to go dish. Not sure what it was. The atmosphere was typical, not great, but clean.

The best Bun Dau Mam Tom in town. Their portion for one person is large enough for 2. Make sure you don't over-order it as we did. Their Bot Chien is crunchy with full topping ( papaya, carrots, green onions, & crispy fired shallot). Drinks was okay. We will be back to try Bun Bo Hue & Bun Mam.

This restaurant is always crowded. The food is consistently good. However I took 2-stars away due to service. Maybe because the restaurant always packed, we waited until 1/2 way to our meal to get our drink. Our appetizer came at the end, only because I reminded the waitress, then she stated enter in the computer.

Well, the food tasted quite like the original "Canh Bun," but the unexpected addition of a cockroach felt like an uninvited extra! If you want new taste, come and join for cockroach party

Bun mam, bun rieu and banh canh was good. The phao lau was tasty but a little soft for my taste. Overall the food was good.

My second time here and every single dish we ordered was absolutely delicious. My MIL is one hella picky eater but she complimented how good the food was. All of the waiters are Vietnamese and they are all so friendly and helpful! Place is clean and bright

Bun mam broth was thick and sickeningly sweet. I had to pour in more water but even then it was so sweet I couldn't enjoy the rest of the bowl. Canh bun was decent but alarmingly small for $12. I think they need to warn customers ahead. My friend left still hungry after finishing his bowl.

We ordered "Bánh Bột Chiên," and there was a live cockroach on it when the server brought us our food. Despite our polite request to send it back and cancel the order, the server showed no concern, there was no genuine apology or acknowledgment of the incident from the staff. While we still paid our bill full, but the lack of acknowledgment and nonchalant attitude left us deeply unsettled. Unfortunately we couldn't take any picture bc we were too shock and scared atm
