 Chinese and Vietnamese specialties |
18027 Point Lookout Dr (at Nasa Road One) Houston, TX 77058 United States +1 281 333 2704 |
Like most Asian restaurants in Houston, the atmosphere is friendly and casual. If you happen to be in the Clear Lake area, this is a great spot to grab a bite with family or friends when you need a break from the tourist attractions. The menu consists of an assortment of Chinese and Vietnamese specialties in a moderate price range. The lemongrass chicken is a diner favorite that is definitely worth sampling.

Where Noodles Rule & Dumplings Disco |
2130, Jefferson Road (Hutchins Road) Houston, TX 77003 United States +1 713 228 3400 http://www.noodlesrule.com |
This little noodle house in a run-down Old Chinatown strip center is a quirky stand-out that is as much about attitude as it is about food, reflecting the owner's own personality. Whether it's the pink flamingos in the patch of grass outside, the irreverent t-shirts that declare that "My noodle is bigger than your noodle", or "Feather Boa Friday Nights", there's no mistaking Jenni's for any other noodle house around. Don't miss the pan-fried vegetable Disco Dumplings made with shiitake mushrooms, the fresh squeezed limeade, the Pho Tai, or Infernal Chicken Curry. -JoAnn Takasaki Review © 2007, Wcities |

Home-style Asian |
3403 Milam St Houston, TX 77002 United States +1 713 520 7684 http://www.maisrestauranttx.com/ |
Neon beer signs light up the room in this casual eatery that was once a billiard parlor. Die-hard Vietnamese fans do not seem to pay attention to the decor, but focus instead on the earthy, home-style food that keeps them coming back for more. The establishment has a reputation for serving some of the spiciest and most authentic Vietnamese food in Houston. If you are a little less adventurous, try the cold spring rolls that are overstuffed with vermicelli noodles, shrimp, pork, sprouts and lemon grass. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Striking mural of Saigon |
5503 Kelvin Drive Houston, TX 77005 United States +1 713 942 0108 |
The striking mural of Saigon certainly inspires conversation in this casual eatery. Located in the heart of Rice Village, it enjoys popularity with the artistic crowd, college students and couples out for a modest romantic evening. For a taste experience that is certain to please, try the shrimp salad, shrimp and pork spring rolls or the Vietnamese gumbo. Alcohol is not served, but it is very doubtful that you will miss it.

Chic, contemporary newcomer |
1201 Westheimer Road Houston, TX 77006 United States +1 713 524 5664 http://www.momonghouston.com/ |
Vietnamese dining takes on some interesting twists at this chic, contemporary restaurant. The name means, "to dream," and this is certainly many diners' idea of a dreamy experience. Sip martinis with friends in the downstairs bar before moving upstairs to the sleek dining room. Traditional Vietnamese dishes have been deliciously tampered with to make up the non-traditional menu. Try the curry chicken served with crusty French bread. Diners are rarely disappointed with that or any other selection. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Vietnamese food you can afford |
22442 Tomball Parkway Houston, TX 77070 United States +1 281 655 0001 |
You will not visit this restaurant for the ambiance, but you will certainly enjoy the great food and low prices. Lunch is always bustling with professionals, but this spot is also popular for dinner. Choose from an extensive menu of appetizers that includes soups, noodle dishes, egg rolls and lo mein. The house special is the delicious number 56 ($4.95 for lunch, $6.95 for dinner), which is a heaping mound of tomato-fried rice served with chunks of steak and onions in a hearty sauce. An assortment of vegetarian items is also available. Review © 2007, Wcities |

A Taste of Saigon |
2808 Milam St Houston, TX 77006 United States +1 713 524 3734 |
This bustling Vietnamese restaurant, with its café - like interior, is the perfect downtown gathering place for chatty pho (noodle soup) lovers. Friendly service can always be counted on to nicely enhance your dining experience. Although many options are available, the beef pho is the house specialty and the unanimous favorite of patrons. Alcohol is not available, but the restaurant opens early for breakfast and prices are a steal. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Charming Oriental Musical Instruments |
6470 FM 1960 Houston, TX 77069 United States +1 281 444 0200 |
The pink and rosewood decor is somewhat elegant, but not to the point of intimidation. In fact, your arrival in jeans will not cause a single head to turn. The delightful menu features a huge selection of Chinese and Vietnamese meat, noodle, seafood and vegetarian dishes. You might want to start with the flaming appetizer platter or the meaty Vietnamese egg rolls. Roll the lemongrass beef or honey-grilled chicken in rice paper and dip it in chili sauce. Try the Saigon Special with sizzling beef, chicken and scallops. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Nestled in a bustling shopping center across from West Oaks Mall, this elegant restaurant stands out in grandiose style.

Possibilities include seasoned duck, fish, seafood, chicken and pork--all with unpronounceable names. Weekly lunch specials are a steal at USD5-USD6 per person. Review © 2007, Wcities |
