Viet food to go has been my favorite go to place on weekend mornings. Since moving to the area, it's been a comforting reminder of home. Their banh baos (steamed buns) and banh tieu (Vietnamese style doughnut) are always come out steaming fresh & fluffy. For the banh bao, my favorite part is the actual "bao" part and less of the meat inside. Same goes with their patechaud actually. We can be friends and complete each other if you only like the filling! They have at least three varieties of spring rolls (goi cuon, nem cuon, bo bia) and sticky rice (xoi man, xoi ga, xoi la dua). It's hard to choose one of each, so I make it easy on myself and always get all of them. Why make life more complicated than it should be? If you're feeling like a basic bee, they have your solid essentials like their grilled chicken banh mi. But if you're feeling like you want to live life on the edge, they have adventurous delights like their pha lau (offal stew) and chao long (offal congee). No judgement here whichever way y'all are swinging! Round out your meal with their fun desserts like their red bean, coffee jelly, and tofu che. And depending on the season, they have precut green mangoes with chili salt. Damn my mouth is salivating just thinking about that sour crunch! Their selections are never boring and I can never leave without buying over $100 of food for the week. They literally have everything I could ever want plus more! -Sailor out

Stopped here for lunch before going to look for cabinets. I walked past here a few times, but never really tried their food. Me and my wife shared a banh mi and it was very good, delicious and reasonably priced. May have to add this place to our banh mi tour one day lol. They have a lot to offer at an affordable price in my opinion, for how expensive everything is now. They stay pretty busy but they get the customers out very quickly depending on how much you order. They share a parking lot with multiple of businesses so you may get lucky to get close parking FYI. Overall definitely will come back and try all they have to offer. Come show your support if you're in the area

This place is open at 8am!!! what?!?! Most Viet restaurants open like 10'am or later! I love that folks are in here eating Pho or Banh Mi for breakfast! Family owned and run...this place offers many iconic vietnamese dishes to go. i love the fresh made seasame puff donut and the seasame balls. The banh mi is a good price as well. Service is efficient. if you order online...it will be ready for pick up. You can do w in too. Medium noise depending the time you go. Store is clean. Offers plenty beverages including famous vietnamese ice coffee and artichoke tea. Stop by if you can! i will be back when i'm in the area.

This is my fourth time visiting Viet Food To Go and it is as amazing as ever. This restaurant is a hole in the wall tucked away in the corner but packs so much flavor in everything. The egg rolls have so much flavor and are super crunchy but not oily. My husband got the Korean bbq ribs with fried rice and they were served on a sizzling platter. The ribs were perfect and not overcooked which you have to worry about with some sizzling platters. He has NEVER been a fan of Vietnamese food, but after today this is one of his favorite places to eat at. I got the vermicelli noodle bowl combo and it is so yummy. I did ask for peanut sauce to pour on top with sriracha and it was so yummy! They have an open prep station behind the counter and it's so cool to sit and watch them prepare the ingredients for the fresh food. Also super nice and welcoming staff! Prices are fair and very accessible. This is your go to spot for a delicious and quick lunch break!!

One of the hidden gems here is Thai green tea, done very well with obvious taste of the tea. Definitely order as is (with ice) because the drink is already presweetened and needs the dilution. Otherwise the menu is pretty complete with basic viet dishes, made on the spot by Viet aunties shouting Vietnamese in the background. Plenty of vegetarian dishes along with rice plates and noodle soups. Would skip their bun rieu, it was a lackluster soup with one crab (?) meatball, a small fried tofu, and a lonely floating tomato slice. Their selection of already made snacks are fun and well-made. Overall a neat little hidden gem in the southeast side of town. If you come off hours, there is a few tables to sit. Avoid the crazy crowds during peak hours and call ahead to get to go. The only downside is the service is a little slow, even during off hours. There are times when I came here when they simply forgot my order, once they skipped over my order completely then reprinted my order and placed me back in line like I wasn't already there for 30 minutes.

Very accommodating. We had switched our pick up times same day and they made it work for us! When I arrived at the scheduled time they had the tray ready for pick up. The egg rolls are crisp with a whole shrimp inside, well seasoned. Great option for parties. Can't speak for dine in, but they had about 10 tables to sit at in a relatively small but clean space!

Viet Food To-go is one of my favorite places to get Vietnamese food in Pearland and Houston asides from my mom's and family's house and has a lot of authentic dishes. The inside is very small, but they have a large menu. They make their bread in house and from scratch, and the smell is amazing. Their bánh tiêu or hollow donut, which consists of hollow pastry plastered with sesame seeds, is my favorite. I always get three each time I visit. I also like their bánh canh, especially on a rainy day. It comes with thick noodles, chả, and pork meats. I do wish there were more, but I can't complain because it's less than $10 for the whole bowl. They have a lot of comfort foods for a super affordable price! Overall, this is a great place if you want good bánh mì, bánh tiêu, bánh canh, or any other comfort and homemade Vietnamese dishes.

Viet Food To Go has all the intangibles I'm looking for in a casual, quality establishment: homey vibes with a no frills aura, local following, bomb food, and reasonable prices. This isn't a destination by any means, but I'm extremely envious of the community of folks living in the South Belt / Ellington area. If I lived around here, this would be more than just Viet Food To Go, it'd be my Viet Go-To. As expected, it's a small, family owned place that thrives on takeout. There is seating available, plenty enough that they're busy during most days at lunch time. They don't stay open later than 7 most of the week days, so get that order in (#1). In reality, the name doesn't do them justice, but it certainly adds to the appeal / charm for me. Overall, the food is fire. Their claim to fame is their bo luc lac (#2), which is juicy, tender, and well seasoned. I could always use more portion wise, but I understand beef is expensive. One of their best dishes has it served over sauteed Viet pasta (nui xao bo luc lac). I think their overly-peppery fried rice is sort of addicting and the bún dishes are quite nice. They're also a pseudo bakery, which means their banh mi (#3) is solid and other snacks, such as their banh bao, banh cam, and on some days, their pate so is worth ordering. An area where they really excel is catering, which also has a dedicated menu. They'd be a hit addition to any potluck or house party, I'd highly recommend anything they make, but especially their noodle / rice dishes. Add a massive jug of their Vietnamese iced coffee and/or dessert and you'll have people thanking you endlessly. I really appreciate the bilingual Vietnamese - English staff. Diem has always done a good job taking care of customers and they're good about making substitutions for folks with dietary restrictions. They also accept zelle and credit card. For the latter, be sure to sign up for their loyalty points. I'm definitely going to cash in on mine soon. ___________ (#1) Call ahead of time. Don't wait in line. (#2) Err ... "shaking beef" for the non-initiated. (#3) Beware spice haters, the bread is slathered with spicy mayo.
