Vieng Thai — Restaurant in Houston

I was really looking forward to trying this restaurant given all the great reviews. Firs the positive - the staff is very nice, diligent and professional. The prices are very reasonable. Now for the so-so, we got green curry, Tom Yum soup, larb, and fried tofu. Unfortunately, I would rate the food as average. The dishes were more greasy and bland than we expected. The Tom Yum soup was greasy and didn't have the lemongrass or spicy/sour flavor. The Larb was missing the lime/basil taste and it was also greasy. The curry was kind of soupy and lacked the strong curry flavor and it was also greasy - maybe too much coconut milk? The tofu was overly fried. Who knows, maybe they had an off day and not sure if ordering everything "mild" threw them off also, but I don't see why it would. I will say, mild is no spice at all, which is different than my experience with Thai restaurants, since I expect "mild" to still have some kick to it. All in all, I wouldn't dissuade anyone from trying it as your experience may be different. Five stars for the staff and two...

I came to the restaurant on 1-19-2017. The restaurant was unsanitary and the service was terrible. Our waitress serving us was the taller thinner woman, not the shorter one dressed in black. She did not really serve us while we were there and in fact, kept looking at us with a bad look towards the end waiting for us to sign the receipt. Based off our overall experience, we decided not to tip. My wife and I had got into our truck and as we were pulling out of the parking space, the waitress that served us came out asking us to stop. I stopped and she questions us rudely why we did not tip her. I stated I do not have to tip. She then stated for us not to come back in a very rude and ugly manner. She stayed still near my truck window looking at us very ugly and made some small ugly gestures. I stated to please leave us alone and quit harassing us. She then cussed us out. I stated I was going to pull out my camera to record her actions. She then walked off and flipped my...

My sister and I LOVE Thai cuisine, we just moved to this side of town so we decided to try something close by. This is definantley one of those, "don't-judge-a-book-by-its-cover" places. When you drive by it really looks crappy, I never had even noticed when it was there. However, when you walk in, it's a completley different story. Not the fanciest, but it looks really nice on the inside, kind of suprises you when you walk in. Anyway the service was okay I guess, I'm sure if it was more busy then it would have sucked. They don't have a kiddy menu so if you decided to take your kids, make you get them something before. I'm not too sure what the plate was called, but it was SO GOODDD! It was glass noodles, chicken, shrimp, and veggies! We also had Ginger chicken.. it was so-so. Nothing special! Although the servings were small (usually when I go to Thai restaurants) they give you a good amount! All in all- I would go back!...
