Our appetizer, which is number 10, tastes really good. However, #15, pho Tai is so bland and doesn't taste good at all. #51 has a huge good amount of plate, but it's not too tasty. It's kinda bland and needs to be marinated more.
Crew and staff are very attended and polite. They have a lot of spot for parking at the back of the restaurant and one from across the street.
The atmosphere is decent and peaceful. But other than that it still a 3.5 star experience overall
My wife and I were craving eggrolls and I was craving BUN with Chicken. Mai's NEVER DISAPPOINTS. Open till 3am Friday and Saturday I highly recommend a visit to this midtown institution.
Everything about this restaurant is top knotch. Food, service, location, atmosphere. Can't wait to go back!
I have been eating at Mai's Vietnamese restaurant since 1995 and the food is constantly delicious. Their service is impeccable and they have a large Vietnamese family following, which lets you know that it is right on the money. Their prices are very fair market prices. The decor is great, complete with exotic fish tanks and simple and clean restaurant furnishings. Mai's is my most favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Houston. Give them a try and they will be yours too!
The garlic chicken was delicious but the waitress was rude to our table of 8. She cut us off when taking each order. She walked away when I asked for extra vegg ies. So I didn't get extra veggies. She kept saying “just wait”. She had no care.
Visiting this restaurant for the first time. Was not disappointed at all. Food came out fast. There steam rice was one of the best for me. Honestly not all restaurants can make some good steam rice. Our waiter was a bit rude. But other than that everything was amazing.
Great Vietnamese restaurant. Chicken pho was delicious and service was good.
Pho and other similar dishes taste pretty good, but it's definitely on the pricier side. Parking is slightly confusing, it's across the street and slightly diagonal to the restaurant. Service is good and the food comes pretty quick. There is an automatic 18% gratuity applied for groups of 6 or more.

Easily one of my family’s favorite restaurants in Houston.
My wife’s been coming since the old location. The egg rolls usually don’t even hit the plate before they’re gone. Everything’s great, including the service, but the garlic beef is one of my go-tos. The chicken wings are also terrific.
Good experience. We came in on a Thursday afternoon as a family. Delicious food. Good size portions. Great waiting staff! Great recommendations from the waiter as well. They can substitute without any problems or extra charges.
