Huynh Restaurant

Erik Smith

Huynh Restaurant consistently delivers great food and great service, which is why it’s always a standout when we’re in Houston. Everything we’ve had has been flavorful and well prepared, and the experience feels personal in the best way. One thing that really sets this place apart is that the owner actively walks the floor, checking in with guests and offering thoughtful menu suggestions. That level of involvement shows in both the quality of the food and the overall experience. They’re also very strong when it comes to gluten-free options. The staff is knowledgeable, comfortable answering questions, and clearly understands how to guide diners with dietary needs. That confidence makes dining here easy and enjoyable. Huynh is a place we trust and one I’m always happy to recommend.

The food over at Huyhn Restaurant was very delicious. The ambiance and atmosphere was amazing. Staff was great and friendly. Will comeback in the future. Very convenient nearby the George R. Brown Convention Center , Daikin Park, and Dynamo Stadium.

Huynh Restaurant delivers on flavor but fell short on service during our visit. We started with the fresh spring rolls with shrimp — oh my, they were light, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The peanut sauce had just the right kick of spice. For mains, I had the pho with ribeye beef. The portion was perfect, the broth amazingly fresh, and the beef was tender and flavorful. My wife ordered the vermicelli bowl with strip-fried lemongrass beef, which was fragrant, well-seasoned, and refreshing. Both dishes really impressed us. The downside was our waiter, Brian. He came across as rude and dismissive. When my wife asked about a Banh Mi, he replied, “This is not a sandwich shop.” On top of that, while I was deciding between pho and vermicelli, he made it seem like I didn’t know Vietnamese cuisine at all. Those kinds of comments felt unnecessary and unprofessional. Thankfully, the rest of the staff stepped in and saved the evening. They kept our drinks full, quickly fixed our spring roll order, and treated us warmly. Their attentiveness helped balance out the poor impression Brian left. The food here is absolutely worth coming back for, but I hope the service is more consistent across the board. — Mike “Big Chief” Hiatt Host of The Whiskey Trip Podcast

They were so accommodating to our party. Gave great suggestions, helped us split our pho so we could all get a portion. Also very attentive to allergies. Food was delicious! Never felt rushed and sound was a good level that we could hold a conversation. 10 min walk from convention center, and located in a small strip mall.

Food is great. There's a lot of seats and servers. But one thing affected my experience is that me and my friend got a seat beside the wall at the end of an isle, a lot of different servers will walk by us and look at us. Though it make sense they are just trying to see if anyone needs to be served, it was a little bit awkward and my friend had to look outside the window to avoid eye contact with the server passing by.
