Bodard Express

Not the best Vietnamese food I have had, but definitely good. The 4 stars is based off of it being in the tunnels (kind of like comparing restaurants at the airport, you give them a little extra leeway) if it was out in the general public I would have gone 3 stars. They get the food out quick, food was good, and the menu is pretty large. Be warned, my friend has been coming here awhile and the bahn mi jalapenos are always more spicy than normal. If you have delicate stomach or think normal jalapenos are about all the spice you can take, you might 86 them or ask for them on the side. I thought they were great on my bahn mi. The wonton soup was pretty good and had several wontons (some places just give you one and somehow think that is enough). Spring rolls were average. The sitting area is not very large, so this is best to take to go.

Located in a tunnel - easy to get to though! They have various options and vegetarian/tofu dumplings! First time trying the combo and it was actually filling! They don't have low sodium soy sauce but they do offer other typical ingredients like duck sauce and crushed red peppers in oil.

This Vietnamese restaurant is located in the tunnels. Just right in front of getting off the elevator from the Enterprise Plaza building. I ordered the vermicelli pork. It came with a spring roll, salad and of course the vermicelli with pork and fish sauce. This is fast food. There are limited seating at their restaurant. Like around 5 tables. I feel that their seats are a bit crammed But I just had it to go and ate it upstairs in the office instead. So everything was good except, I find the pork a bit dry. But the fish sauce help though. Food was prepared quite fast. Overall it was ok.

This location isn't nearly as good as the Chinatown location. Everything is mediocre, but it's very convenient for me in the tunnels so I've tried a lot of the menu. Service is pretty friendly and they package your food fast. Prices are decent(except the wings) considering you're downtown.Bodard rolls, pho's, curry rice, vermicelli, wings, dumplings, Vietnamese coffee - (3.5/5)Banh mi - (3/5)Spring rolls - (2/5)

If I could give this place 0 stars I totally would. My co worker purchased food from this establishment during our lunch hour. Once we arrived back to the office, he found a cockroach in his food. See picture attached. He immediately went back, and was not offered an apology. He of course received a refund, but they continued to sell the soup where he found a cockroach in. They did not seem surprised or have any sense of urgency or sympathy. The experience left us in shock, and we want to make sure that everyone is aware to please be careful when purchasing food from this establishment. Please be careful! Double check your food!

Almost everything I have got from here is AMAZING! Although the line can be long at times with one cashier, it doesn't bother me much.I am a big fan of their wonton and egg noodle soup. And their Banh mi sandwiches. They do have a kiosk where you can put your info in to pay ahead of time if you are a first time visit.

For Vietnamese fast food in the downtown Houston tunnel, it is very good.The banh mi pork sandwich has a good taste with the right amount of jalapenos and vegetables alongside the pork. The pork with vermicelli is good, with some salad along with the pork. The only dish I didn't like was the dumplings. They tasted like the frozen dumplings you buy at the Asian grocery stores.The prices are very cheap by downtown standards. They also have an online ordering system that works through the Ritual app so you can skip the line.

I usually try to not leave negative reviews for restaurants , as I am an owner of several, but I have to leave this review.... The regular cashier (bigger girl) HAS TO BE THE WORST when it comes to customer service on EVERY level. She never has any sense of urgency and customers always seem like a bother to her. She never smiles. Never engages any customer. She just stands there with airpods in her ears, head down and has probably the worst attitude that I have ever come across in all of my years in this industry. The rumor is that she is related to the owner in some way, and that is the reason why she is around. This should NOT be accepted. I approached her and asked what time they open and she said "whatever time we get here". Seriously? I thought I was being pranked. I promise I am not being extra or mean at all, but TO THE OWNER, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PUT THIS LADY IN THE BACK OF THE RESTAURANT, YOUR CUSTOMERS ARE SUFFERING AND YOU ARE LOSING BUSINESS BECAUSE OF HER.I ordered the chicken curry. This was more like chicken curry flavored water because that's how soupy it was. No flavor, bland as heck, and for sure microwaved. This is not authentic, nutrition or healthy in any way. TO THE OWNER, PLEASE TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT YOUR FOOD (QUALITY AND TASTE). IF YOU SERVED THIS TO YOUR MOM OR FAMILY, WOULD THEY BE PROUD OF WHAT THEY ARE EATING? DOES IT TASTE LIKE HOME? VERY IMPORTANT!There is NO POINT in asking for a refund since the cashier simply says to call the owner.

The soupiest chicken curry I ever had and the rice was hard. And the chicken pieces looked overcooked. Not gonna lie. I should have kept walking to Jimmy Johns.

Very rude and unprofessional. Pictures are not representation of the food at all. When I asked for a refund because I would not eat my food, I was told I couldn't get a refund because of an online order. I was told to call the owner, he called the restaurant and told her to refund me with cash. She could have called and asked him herself. She threw the money at me and yelled sorry the food took too long.....she missed the point. Not sure why she thought I said that, I told her I wasn't going to eat food that looks like has been stored in the back for a week. But I guess it was all my fault and she was deflecting from the actual issue.
