Tainan Bistro — Restaurant in Houston

Upon entering the restaurant, we were immediately greeted by the friendly owner. There is a wide range of Taiwanese dishes that ranged from street foods to restaurant dishes. There’s a self-serving section with water, sauces, utensils and complimentary soup (egg drop with tomato; it tasted similar to what my mom made at home growing up).

We ordered the stomach, oyster vermicelli noodle soup (豬肚蚵仔麵線）, braised pork rice (肉粽飯), tempura with fried chicken (甜不辣鹹酥雞) and the pork chop steak. The owner also incredibly generous and served us homemade Taiwanese sausage to try out. The flavours of all the dishes we ordered were authentic and reminded me of home. Portions were generous and pricing is affordable.

Highly recommend this gem of a place. We will definitely visit again to try out...

They also have a lunch bento option where you pick two meats and two vegetables if you're looking for more variety for your...

OMG, after years of my Mom coming here to get delicious baozi to take home along with other great takeout foods, I thought that they were moving away from the one item we used to come on a regular basis to get. But today I discovered their Seafood chow mein and I was amazed by their fresh oysters and clams and that down-home Taiwanese cuisine taste with mushrooms and veggies... so umami, you can't stand it. The freshest oysters for peeps who love the traditional oyster omelet... They also still have plenty of delicious takeout like Taiwanese ground pork already cooked, so you just need fresh rice or noodles to complement it at home. They have a hot table format for those who like to see what they are eating and...
