Pho Now — Restaurant in Houston

This is a wonderful Pho place I enjoyed my visit here. My family came for a late dinner and didn’t feel like driving to our normal Pho place. Because this was closer to us we thought we’d try it out. I think this has become our new Pho place.

There was not one dish that I got that tasted bad at all. We ordered Pho, Crab and Cream cheese Wontons, spring rolls, and Vietnamese sandwiches (pork and beef), and all of it was very good. We have tried Pho from all over Houston and this is amongst the top. How lucky are we to be able to get quality Pho from less than a mile from our house. And if we want to be extra lazy Door Dash delivers from there.

The seating area was clean, not crowded but a consistent flow of customers. I didn’t check out the bathrooms this time around.

Waiting staff was very kind and friendly. So why the 4 stars instead of 5 I really wanted to give it a five, but our server was kind of forgetful at times. They also ran out of bread for one of the Vietnamese sandwiches that we ordered. There were also a couple times where we had to ask for water to be refilled. Bougie I know, I’m sorry! I promise though when we go back if those things are better I will update this review.

Overall if you’re looking for a good Pho place to eat, with a very diverse menu, friendly staff, a clean environment, reasonable prices, and higher quality food this is a great...

Observed the female owner yelling at a customer who was homeless. He had come in to order food and she wouldn’t let him finish his first sentence and threw him out. I asked him what he needed. He was so embarrassed as there was 8 other people standing next to me waiting to pick up orders who heard her yelling at him. So did customers eating inside the restaurant. Owner told him never to come back. I stopped him on his way out and I took his order, he waited outside in 108 degree heat for about 20 min. I questioned woman regarding her rudeness. She said people like him stink and they never go away. She would not even let him sit at a table to eat his food. I told her he didn’t smell at all and she still would not let him come in to eat his food. The customers and I just looked at each other. It was a hateful confrontation with pure evil on her face. It will be the last time I order anything from this selfish, ugly spirited woman, or the business. May she get hers tenfold. I ordered the gentleman a coke as well, and woman made a face when I asked her for a cup with ice since he was going to eat outside on some...

You know an ethnic place is good when the diners of that ethnicity are seated throughout the dining area. This is the case with Pho Now. The punny name notwithstanding, this place is legit scrumptious.

I was greeted and welcomed right away, which is what would be anticipated . But it almost seemed like they were expecting me to come in. The server offered to find a Coke Zero even though they don’t serve that drink. What?! Who does that?! When I ordered Vietnamese egg rolls, the server made sure I didn’t mean fried egg rolls. I didn’t, but I appreciated the extra step he took.

The servings are huge. And that was for lunch! I can eat, but I struggled a bit to finish it all. At first I thought, “Where’s the beef in this beef lo mien?!” Well, it was all hiding underneath all the perfectly stir-fried vegetables. The sauce was a little heavy, but that’s how I like it. Perfectly done.

A tiny caution: this part of town is not exactly known for its safety and valet service. But that’s where I find so many quality dining experiences that a place much fancier would have trouble living up to....
