Giau bar n bites

Super aesthetic cocktails, and delicious too! My favorite was the kiwi breeze. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. I loved the vibe and the music as well! We also ordered the mango and squid salad which turned out to be too spicy for me. Although some menu items were marked with a spice icon, this one wasn’t. And I admit I have a very low tolerance for spice, but it would’ve been nice if it was noted. It was still very tasty and flavorful though! And my other small complaint is that we were given plastic forks, which felt a bit out of place for the beautiful presentation and aesthetics of the bar.

Service was top-notch! We sat at the bar and every few minutes we had someone was checking in on us. The team here all had great personalities and were very engaged. The food was great and came out quickly. The drinks were even better! Alot of unique drinks that I've never tried before. This is definitely a great place take someone out for some food and drinks.

Fantastic wings and cocktails. The beer selection is a bit pedestrian (some craft options would be nice) but all good and reasonably priced. The cocktails are bit pricey but the food is excellent and very reasonably priced. The atmosphere is a bit unusual, think pool hall without the pool tables (apparently those are upstairs). The bar area though is super nice with a great selection of spirits including high end tequila. All that said, I definitely recommend checking them out.

Highly recommended!!! This place makes their cocktails like a work of art. Every cocktail was specially crafted and James adds his signature at the end of most cocktails by heating the lemon, wringing it and rubbing it on the rim of the glass. Cocktails were simply delicious and the food was delicious. Even though they have a really good bar to hang out, this place is also great for family as the food here is really good and portion is generous too. Service was amazing. All the staff were very friendly here. My only problem with this place is why didn’t we discover this place sooner!!

If you’re here for drunken food. I would definitely recommend. Very light but tasty foods. Quail balut 5/5 Cute and petite. Love eating the reg balut but sometimes you just want something smaller. Oysters with masago 5/5 Pricey but my cravings got the best of me. If you add some soy sauce and sriracha, mmmm that thing can be addicting! Bo tai chanh (rare beef) 2/5 Liked the plating. Portion was good. Flavor was too sweet for my taste. Not enough lemon also for née. Curly fries 5/5 Good amounts. Good crunch. Mini eggrolls 5/5 Fave type of eggrolls. The fact that they are bite size is so cute.

Interesting cocktail choices. The Dj music is ok. The background 2000-2010 hip hop music was much better. Overall the food, drinks and service is good. Definitely iwill come back to get the casamigos or don't Julio bottle of 375 ml bottle for $100. ,

I have visited Katy/Fulshear, TX for years because my family is down here. I'm not much into calling in food for pick-up, but I did with this place it has changed my mind. Sam told me what to order and I tried the Supreme Fried Rice &. . . WOW!! She was spot-on!! Thank you Sam for everything. Will be back for sure ~ truly amazing stuff.

This is my new favorite spot!!! Great place to hang out with friends, have an amazing drink, and enjoy great food. The staff is amazing, and the guest obviously came to have a good time. The bartenders have been my very favorite from all the bars that I have tried in the last 3 years, Shout out to James for being amazing 👏🏽 . They have events that are definitely worth attending, so i strongly suggest following. An example would be anime night, with custom decor and signature drinks to match. I tried several docent items on the food and drink menu and was never disappointed. I will be back to try the oxtail hotpot!!

I love this spot better than the one on Bellaire. It's more laid-back and the service is always great. The food is always yummy and ambience is pretty chill.

Came here on a Saturday night with a few friends. The place wasn't busy at all -- we were the only table, and just a couple of people were at the bar. Our server was super friendly and attentive, which we appreciated. We ordered drinks and a round of food. Everything came out except the grilled oyster. After we finished eating, we decided to order more food and also asked about the oyster. The waiter went to check and told us they had just put it on the grill. Our second round of food came out, and still no oyster. By the time we were finishing up, it still hadn't arrived, so we asked to cancel it and have it taken off the bill. We were there for about two hours, and honestly, grilled oysters shouldn't take that long to make. Service was great, but the kitchen timing really missed the mark.

My partner and I came here to eat late at night because it had good ratings on Yelp & was convenient to the location of our hotel. All of our food arrived fairly quickly and the service was great. Decent oyster shooters and I appreciated that they weren't stingy with the tobiko on the oysters. Can't wait to come back again when we're in town.

Even through the years, Giau remains one of my favorite spots to hang out. There have been some recent changes to the menu to make room for new foods and drinks. Wether I'm here for one, or the other, or both... GiAu never disappoints. My favorite foods to order have to be the oysters with Tobiko, Mango Squid Salad, and the Chicken feet. As for the drinks, I honestly just tell the bartenders what I like and they'll hit the nail on the head with their recommendations. And if you ask nicely, they might even whip you up something new. They've even got daily specials along with a daily happy hour. The vibes here are all over the place. Some days are quiet (usually weekdays) and other days are full of energy, lots of people and loud music. DJs play on Friday and Saturday from 9 til close. Overall, great food and drinks paired with good service and good vibes. Highly recommend.

Happy Hour is awesome...price is right!!! Food was hot & fresh. Recommend the oysters, wings, stir fry flat noodles, & the beef short ribs. Our waitress Nancy was attentive, offering suggestions along with an infectious smile and attitude to match. The ambiance had a vibe all by itself. Dim lighting, great music selection and a laidback atmosphere if you come early. Live DJ at 9pm to pump up the mood. After a long day this is the hangout spot! Sorry, I ate the rest of my food before the review.

Love the vibe here! Second time. Both times on a weekday night. R&B playing in the background at just the right volume to enjoy but still have table conversation. Multiple TV on all the walls. Lounge/bar low lighting with colored LED lights but plenty of table seating to eat & drink. Happy hour from 5-8pm. Had calamari & mini egg rolls & chicken wings. All 3 on happy hour & all 3 very good and a great value at $8. I also tried the beef short ribs. They were tender & tasty. I like that they have small plates if you are not too hungry or if want to share. Second visit tried chicken skewers & beef skewers. So tasty. Grilled with nice sear on outside & a slightly sweet glaze brushed on. One order is 3 skewers. Nice portion size & good value at $8 each. Both skewers were good. The beef was just a little chewy for me but it's still a winner to order. I preferred the chicken skewer. I also loved eating the meat with the tomato & cucumber slices served on the plate. Drinks are good. I wouldn't call them strong but they make a solid tasty cocktail. Servers & bartenders are very friendly & welcoming. Overall I just really love this place. I like that they have small plates if you are not too hungry or if you want to share. I will absolutely return again & again when I'm looking for a chill evening vibe to get some 'bites' & drinks.

One of my favorite spots to eat and drink. Their food is top tier and they open late for your late night cravings. They also offer bottle service and I come here for every occasion because they have bottle service specials! My go to spot, service is immaculate. Their live Dj's are there on the weekends and we are always jamming, vibes are awesome.

I took 1 star away only because, on the weekends they have a DJ and the music is SO loud you can't even think. We have came here a few times after Pop Stroke and wanted a late night snack. The crawfish was so flavorful and some of the meals are good as well!

I was like a bar serving crawfish? NO WAY!!! OMG it was soooo good.!!!! Delicious, tasty, right amount of seasoning..extra garlic, spicy depends on your preference sweetness and doesnt get salty toward the last crawfish. I EVEN SIPPED OR SPOON DRANK The SAuce!!! It is now my top crawfish selection in Katy. Forget about Yummi crawfish, i found a new place and no wait!!!. Other food selection is always great but Crawfish?.... Come and try.!!! You too might even sip it like I did. ASK FOR A STRAW!!! Along with great service from the girls Never a disappointment..

I was very pleasantly surprised and impressed with GiAu Bar and Bites. We visited for the first time on a Tuesday evening not really sure of what to expect and no preconceived ideas. The place was dimly lit with lots of open tables and a friendly welcome from the bartender and the singular server on duty. We selected our own seat (perhaps because it was empty) strategically facing big screen televisions. The lounge has a slight hipster vibe, mellow energy with music playing that didn't interfere with conversations. They featured their drink menu separately from the food options. I had the spicy cucumber margaritas before the crispy calamari, mini egg rolls and ultimately the short ribs. As we stayed over two hours enjoying every minute of it. Yes, it was my first visit but I didn't experience any misses. On my repeat list!

We tried the fried tofu, the wings with vampire sauce, and broiled oysters. My fave was the tofu. The vibe was more club than bar, but we had a good time, and the staff was very friendly.

If you're looking for a place to satisfy late night cravings (or late afternoon), with cocktails and friendly staff, this is the go-to! The cuisine is Asian/Vietnamese inspired. Solid cocktail selection, though I am usually a straight liquor gal. There's daily drink and food specials. Make sure you check out the board by the bar area. They offer bottle service and be sure to let the staff know if there's an occasion! On Friday and Saturday nights, there's a live DJ from 9PM-2AM! Keep in mind during these hours, the music is quite loud. Not ideal for young children or quiet, intimate conversations. Weeknights are a bit calmer. Here are my top fave dishes: Mango Squid Salad Avocado Bomb Raw Oysters w/ Tobiko Grilled Scallops Rice Cake Salt Toasted Squid or Tofu Grilled Alligator Fluffy Pancakes If the menu is overwhelming, the staff will make suggestions based on your diet preferences. Truly a poppin' place in the Katy Asian Town area!

The wings were the best I ever had! I wanted to lick the plate lol! And the edamame were good too, but a bit over drenched. Came to watch the fight and there are plenty of TV's. Service was kind and efficient and the drinks were good too. Cool vibe over all to check out

LOVE going to GiAu! I've been to see my friend DJ, and just for fun, and the vibes are ALWAYS on point! The watermelon Soju was always a hit with groups! And if you like Balut, or oysters, this spot has both! I always run into someone I know at GiAu it's such a fun spot to be at! The music is VERY loud so be weary of that, for me that's a good thing but I've known people to bring earplugs souffle pancakes as pictured were delicious. A little more sweetness would be nice but I think they're worth trying at least once if you've never had them

This is our spot.. every time I'm in Houston, which is every other weekend.. we come here.. they open super late.. and they have so many options.. for food and drink.. we just love it here .. give them a try and I promise you won't be disappointed.

If you're here for drunken food. I would definitely recommend. Very light but tasty foods. Quail balut 5/5 Cute and petite. Love eating the reg balut but sometimes you just want something smaller. Oysters with masago 5/5 Pricey but my cravings got the best of me. If you add some soy sauce and sriracha, mmmm that thing can be addicting! Bo tai chanh (rare beef) 2/5 Liked the plating. Portion was good. Flavor was too sweet for my taste. Not enough lemon also for née. Curly fries 5/5 Good amounts. Good crunch. Mini eggrolls 5/5 Fave type of eggrolls. The fact that they are bite size is so cute.

Only can to this spot for drinks! We'll have to come back to try food later by they have some pretty fancy craft cocktails! The interior is very IG. Good pot for pics with neon lights! Deff seems like good spot to bring a large group of friends and chill. They had a love dj setting up right before we left and the service at the bar was pretty great!

A lot more spacious than the iconic location in Bellaire Chinatown, and much trendier vibes with all the neon lights. Bummer that the atmosphere isn't as lively, most likely because it doesn't draw a crowd like the Chinatown location. The space is also much larger/roomier. Some things about Giau's just never changes. Like the light up chalkboard with the food and $5 shots specials. Or the option to eat hotpot while you get lit like you're in a club. They've got all the same dishes as the original location, and maybe even more. Pork Belly Taco is by far my favorite. Drinks like alcoholic milktea or watermelon soju are on the menu as well. Everything I've tried matches up to the quality that Giau's is known for. But it the end it's a real downer that it's so far outside the city, where the population trends towards an older, less party-going crowd. #290

I've dined here twice in the past two years, and I don't know why I don't do it more often! Their food is so good, and the service is great! Everything always comes out fresh, and plentiful that I never fail to over order for just two people! Bánh bột chiên- 4/5 if you like it super insanely crunchy, this is your place! I prefer crunchy on the outside, but still soft and chewy in the center to each bite of the turnip cake! Mini chả giò- 5/5 idk how you can mess this one up. It's good. Order it! Nước mắm (fish sauce) is even better! Gỏi ốc hùng (snail salad) - 5/5 texture heaven! I love all the crunch from the fresh veggies, and the chewyness from the sliced snails! So yummy!! Oyster- 3/5 too much tobiko... it was overwhelming! Had to scoop some off to enjoy it better. Bulgogi crostini's- 5/5 meat was perfectly marinated and tender! Love the topper of the fried quail egg!

It's not about the days here, it's the wild NIGHTS It's the sexy dresses, and drunken FIGHTS And the local business owners getting high as KITES Cause all the sexy girls come to Giau Bar N BITES WHAT You want a sexier bar to hang out in, in Chinatown? You must be Giauking. This is the Katy location of Giau, much more low key but still fun, still sexy, still a good hang out spot. Giau Bellaire? It's the heartbeat of the Chinatown nightlife, it's Midtown/Washington Corridor but with an Asian flavour, and this is like the more low key Katy version of that. Oh and at both locations, the waitresses are spectacular and hard working and friendly too, as well as being ridic attractive. We've been in here on a number of occasions and they're friendly and they're great and it's a good time.

Whether you want a place to hang out with friends or facility with good people ate Giau Bar n Bites has both. During the early hours it's a nice restaurant to go to. You have to try the fish sauce wings, don't let the smell scare you away of the wings, all that matters is the wonderful taste. On the weekends at the later hour, they have a DJ that plays live tunes and you can order drinks and bottle service if you would like. If your a "regular" with bottle service you can save it for up to 2 weeks if you don't finish it your first time.

So this is a place where I guess it's kool if your young and want to get drunk. It's not a place to come and enjoy some food. Pork belly taco was good , only thing really Edible unless you're drunk. Vietnamese crêpe I order it without the seafood and lie to you not it came empty like with just the crepe and nothing else. I ask the Waitress and I got back the same crepe with a small amount of pork. They said they don't put Bean sprout mung bean or onion anymore. It's time to update your menu Lemon pepper wing trash one . It's score Like the cook is afraid to over cook it when you can tell it's dry as the Sahara. Not to mention tts frozen then fried. Chicken skewer. It's so bad . The first order came cold . And cold lemon grass isn't tasty. The second came hot but super dry . I couldn't eat it. If you want to drink and party then this is prolly it. If your hungry you should prolly do somewhere else.

Yesterday I went to this place had one drink then left. Something seemed off. I went back and as me and my friend were walking up we see 20 cars roll out at the same time speeding. Get to the door and there is blood on the ground and tables moved and as I turn around the people that had drove off came back firing gunshots. I have never had to flee a shooting and everyone and the workers ran everywhere screaming it was horrible. Don't recommend.

Not worth the time. Foos is just ok. Drinks, maybe, I ordered two margarita drinks, the first one was good, the second one was bitter. I spoke to the individual behind the bar, and all he said is " maybe the forgot an ingredient ". He did not care at all. Will not return.

Delicious bar bites and drinks! The music is always great. Great place for a date night or hang out with friends.

Bartenders were very attentive and the drinks were great. We had the spring rolls, tuna rose, and squid. We had various drinks that were very amazing too such as the Bubbly Pineapple, Old Fashioned, GiAu G+T, and Poppin Watermelon All were awesome! We will be back.

yes, fun, clean and sweet, good services of all, a happy customer. I will be back. The store opens from 5:30 pm to 2:00 am late night. Have fun guys.

I love this place. Great vibes and fun music. It's a great spot for drinks and food, and since its a bar its open pretty late. Definitely try this place out if you're in the area and want to avoid Bellaire, which is a very busy part of town. Everything I've tried here is just delicious. The drinks are great but I specifically come here for the food. The price is decent for the quality and portions, I'm surprised it doesn't get packed during the week. Although, I've came on a few Saturday's before, they have a DJ and it's usually packed with a fun mature crowd. I love their Tom Yum soup, it is packed with flavor and a variety of seafood. My bf loves their shaken beef, everything here is just packed with flavor. It's simply amazing Asian food. Forget going to a fast food chain late at night, come here. I've also tried their raw oysters, crab udon soup, avocado bomb with wonton chips, chicken wings, pad see ewe, egg rolls, rice cake, and banh xeo. I would recommended everything I've tried, it all depends what you're craving in the moment.

The worst service and food was all disappointed. We had ordered fish sauce chicken and original chicken wings. We had specifically informed them that we have a child allergic to gluten and wheat, so asked to not have flour. They brought out the two dishes and we noticed right off the bat there are flour batter on both. They then said they can't make it without. The poor girl ended up eating plain rice. We would have walked out to another restaurant if we knew there wasn't anything she could eat. Ordered a drink, waited for a while then when asked, they informed they're out of vanilla ice cream. Drinks are cheap dive bar quality and food is disappointed to Vietnamese food community. The entire group of 8 could not finish the dishes. Don't recommend and definitely would not come back.

My favorite spot to go to !! The vibes are great..... I love mimi and Khang !! They are amazing

The food is super good and it's a good environment. It's never too packed on a weekend and the ultimate fries are delish as well as the macaroni beef.

Giau is a fun spot to hangout with friends. The vibes are for sure different from the Bellaire location, but it's just fine considering they are catering to the suburban crowd. The food is pretty good, and the drinks are nonstop, so it gets pretty easy to run up the tab quick. The servers are really friendly, but it could get a little obnoxious with the unwanted water-falling sometimes, like we bought a section in a club in the city. I get what they're trying to do, but it just gets funny and awkward. It is pretty cool that you can purchase a bottle here and they will reserve it for you up to 2 weeks if you are unable to finish it that night. I wasn't a big fan of the Dj, since he was playing a little too much house music and it was too loud..and we were hoping for more variety. Some old school hip hop and r&b would be nice, especially catering to us geriatric millennials out here in the burbs haha. GiAu is a good time though.

Enjoy coming here, I love the atmosphere, and the food is great. Don't forget to ask what's the happy hour special they always have something good to drink.

I got annoyed with all the other restaurants packed on a Sunday evening. All I wanted was a place to chill and enjoy a beer and great food and voila! I walked up to this place at the end of the plaza, much to my surprise. Fruit plate, Filet Mignon Plate and a beer was perfect. The waitresses were attentive and helpful. I was told that they have live DJ on Saturday nights. I may just come visit during those times.

Must must try ... everything on the menu is delicious atmosphere is amazing great customer service.. .food came out fast and fresh !!! Presentation is everything.., definitely found a comeback spot.

Usually come for their special fried rice with extra fried rice. I love the sauce that pairs with it. It has a variety of meats such as Chinese sausage, beef, shrimp, crab (imitation). I also get the shrimp: black pepper and the garlic butter. Garlic butter was much more flavorful but the black pepper was crispy and they always give you a good portion! Service is good, food comes out within 15-25min when ordering to go

Great ambiance/music..exceptional service from our server/bartender, Khang. Great food selection, especially if you want bar (Vietnamese) food. I was excited when I saw that they had balut and snails! ...if I wasn't so full, I would have totally tried their chargrilled clams, coconut snails, and so much more! Will definitely be back!

Good food, adorable place, and great bar! I came for a birthday dinner and we had a very large party and the service could've been a little more attentive to our table but overall they did a good job handling us all.

This place is lit. Dj always playing the best jams!! Food is literally 10/10. I had my bday party there and they give you this huge blue drink for free! The drinks are also amazing and strong. It was my second time there and I can't wait to go back. The only issue is when you sit at a table they do not do separate orders. They only can split by 2, 3 or 4 etc. just an FYI.

Best happy hour and nightbar in Katy! Awesome drinks and food! Great vibes always! Great hours for after hours!

Came here for the fairy floss hot chocolate and it was so good. We also got the fluffy pancakes which were good but kinda expensive for the size but that's expected at a bar. Bartender was very kind, I'll def come back.

We normally go to Giau in bellaire. We're excited they have come to Katy since we love out here yayyy!!! Glad they are closer to home a local bar with amazing food and live dj. We came on a Friday around 9pm and the guy was setting up his spot. Great place to throw a party or gathering with friends for drinks and food. We alway hey get nouc mam wings and the small lau Thai. Also both were decent I do have some complaints. Lau Thai didn't have enough veggies I had like 10 small cabbage, the soup wasn't hot, lacked more of the spicy sour flavor and the portion was very little the bowl that was served in was so shallow. Even my husband agree. Felt like we got more food in Chinatown. Nouc mam wing was good. I just hope they changed back to their usual portion. I mean you are catering to a diff crowd but that shouldn't change your portion. Your regulars who enjoy the bellaire location will also come to Katy or live in Katy and they will Know the difference! Service 5/5 they were great check on us often and was very quick to get to us if they had a question or needed something.

The food, service and ambiance was amazing. I will defer be back. The fish sauce wings were delicious and the drinks were tasty!

This is a good late spot good food , drinks, The customer service Excellent. Tofu salad and the bubbly pineapple was so good

Visiting from out of town and decided to try this place out with a group of 6. We thought maybe we'd be going for dinner too late (around 9pm on a weeknight). Not so! The food was incredible and service was as well. Our group decided to share multiple small plates and some large plates which was perfect. Oysters were bomb! We also shared Chicken wings, grilled squid, tuna rose, ultimate fries, bulgogi crostini, ox tail soup, alligator, and shaken fillet mignon. And sake :) that was more than enough food and we definitely indulged. Would come back here again!

Side cars need an extra shot of remy! Crab udon soup was salty. Mini egg rolls were not all the way fried to crisp. Was sweet though! Just betterbefore

Perfect place to grab a bite and GREAT CUTE drinks! It's a nice Vietnamese place to grab bar type Vietnamese style food, there was entree type of food too which I didn't try. I had the crawfish was huge and delicious. Definitely will come back for their cute drinks.

Love this place Vietnamese dish with a twist. Staff are super nice , fast and helpful. Music is club type, a little too young for me but otherwise we had fun.

This place is awesome. Went on Tuesday night. Quiet, not crowded, and their raw oyster with the topping are so good! We ordered total 4 drinks. Alcohol is a bit on the light side but overall love the atmosphere. Will definitely come back again.
