"With a convenient drive-thru window, Saigon Hustle aims to be the country’s most prominent Vietnamese fast-casual chain, but that doesn’t mean it’s skimping on freshness or flavor. The restaurant offers banh mi made with bread baked fresh daily, plus salads, noodle and rice bowls, and spring rolls filled with chargrilled and honey-glazed proteins, such as barbecue rib-eye, salmon, chicken, and crispy tofu. For a quicker snack or appetizer, go for the crispy wings, which are tossed in a sweet and savory garlic sauce, or its ABC soup, a pho-based broth with peppered ground beef, caramelized onions, cilantro, green onions, and alphabet pasta." - Brittany Britto Garley
"This colorful fast-casual drive-thru joint in Garden Oaks offers banh mi sandwiches with proteins like chargrilled barbecue pork, honey soy barbecued chicken and honey-glazed lemongrass tofu. Go whole hog, and add on pate or a sunny side up egg or those looking for a vegetarian option can opt for the fresh veggie." - Minh Truong
"Housed in a former gas station, Saigon Hustle has a drive-thru for visitors to conveniently take food to go, but also a covered patio where they can stay and dine. The menu features a hefty list of Vietnamese eats, including banh mi with a slew of customizable options, salads, and noodle and rice bowls. In lieu of a soda, pair your meal with a traditional ca phe sua da — iced coffee with condensed milk." - Brittany Britto Garley
"This fast-casual Vietnamese kiosk allows guests to place orders for banh mi, and vermicelli and rice bowls conveniently at its drive-thru window. Customize your meal with proteins like char-grilled pork, barbecue rib-eye, or honey-glazed lemongrass salmon, and add a fried egg or crispy egg roll. In lieu of a soda, consider a milk tea or traditional ca phe sua da coffee drink." - Megha McSwain
"With Houston being a sprawling city, having quality food options that are easy to pick up and go is essential, and friends and founders Cassie Ghaffar and Sandy Nguyen are offering just that with Saigon Hustle. Opened in February 2022, the Garden Oaks drive-thru has garnered attention and fanfare for allowing diners on the go to satiate themselves with flavorful Vietnamese cuisine made with fresh ingredients. Find banh mi made with bread baked fresh daily, vermicelli noodles and rice bowls, and more. And there are plans to expand. In July, the founders received $1 million in investment to open other outposts around the city." - Brittany Britto Garley
