Phuong Nam Restaurant

Food and service was excellent. I recommend this restaurant. Want the real deal, this is probably as close as you can get without boarding an airplane. Mom and pop restaurant that delivers on authentic Asian cuisine. Absolutely no complaints.

This is your random strip mall restaurant gem. From the outside you wouldn't expect much. Going inside it looks like a family run joint. Overall food was pretty good. Service however was not. Didn't get our water filled the whole time even though there were only 2 tables in there. You have to pay up front. Food:+ Banh xeo was yummy. Filled with goodies+ Bun rieu was good. Even included pig trotter+ Bun bo hue was good. Lots of traditional cuts of meat and they were generousJust go for the food.

This restaurant is in Garland. Neighborhood is kind of ghetto so lock your car and hide your stuff. Interior is super spacious and great for large parties. The waitstaff was very friendly and gave good explanations for dishes like how to eat it, and how the sauces, veggies, and pastes were meant to be used. We ordered a Bun Bo Hue and Bun Mang Vit. The noodle soups were very authentic. The Bun Mang Vit came with blood cake, duck, and large pieces of bamboo shoots. The noodles were a little too soft. The Bun Bo Hue came with everything it's supposed to come with - it had the usual meats, one big piece of blood cake, and one pork trotter. The noodles were just right. They gave a side of shrimp paste so you can add more if you need extra flavor. I thought the flavor was fine as is. The broths for both were delicious. You know it's going to be good when there's a piece of lemon grass floating in the broth. Pay at the counter when you're done.

The service was quick and the staff were friendly. Our order came out pretty quick as well. The bbh has pork knuckles, pigs blood and even snail sausage/ham. Tons of meat and flavorful broth. The restaurant is also spacious and clean. Would come back here if in the area again. 7/10

People recommended me to come here for the bun Bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup) . But I found it kind of bland and not enough lemon grass in there to give that burst of flavors . It was just another average place to me and so far Houston still has the best Bbh .

Wonderful food and service. Will be back again! We had the vermicelli and BBH and it was excellently prepared.

My rating for this place is more of a 3.5/5! Their BBH is decent here. I'm not a fan of their snail cha, but some people really like the taste and therefore the BBH is better to them. The broth is savory and not too oily or heavy. There is a good portion of food so I'm always feeling satisfied.However I think their hidden gem is their bun tieu and com tam. It's sooo good. The bun rieu tastes just like home. It's savory, a little sweet, and the tofu and meat is cooked perfectly. Their com tam (pork) is tender, juicy, and just outright delectable. The nuoc mam that comes with it is the right amount of sweetness, too.

Very great personal service! Great waiter! Great kitchen staff kitchen staff prepared my food and bought it to my table?! Even bought me more fresh veggies and asked if I wanted my viet coffee extra sweet! Most viet restaurant don't do any of these. Eggs rolls were big! Replace my bun rieu with extra tofu and sausage when I asked to leave out the blood jello and pork feet. All this service before I even asked! And food tasted great!

Food great service great and great atmosphere the owner even gave me 20 dolla dolla! ITS GREAT

We came here on the way to get Asian groceries. We were seated right away and drinks came soon after. The place was clean and we didn't have to wait that long for our food. My husband and I ordered bun bo hue and banh xeo. The soup was decent and came with pork blood and pork, flank meat. The banh xeo was cooked perfectly and crispy with plenty of pork and shrimp instead. Our waitress was very nice and checked on us. We saw the cook came out to chit chat with her regulars. You can tell that she was caring and was so sweet. It had that warm family restaurant atmosphere that's hard to find now a day.
