Phuong Nam Restaurant - Garland, Texas

Nice, authentic Vietnamese food for good pricing with good portions. We got: grilled pork broken rice, grilled pork vermicelli, and bun bo hue.
The bun bo hue was spicy, deep flavored broth with pork blood cubes which some places aren't giving anymore.
The grilled pork for the vermicelli and broken rice was made well, not too hard and seasoned nicely.
The egg roll was crispy but I wouldn't say it's the best I've had.
Great place to come back for bun bo hue which they're definitely much more well known for.

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 .

Would highly recommend. Delicious food. I got the bun bo hue and it was delicious. The server was also very friendly. I loved it here.

I enjoyed my Bún bò Huế. The broth did lack some flavor, but it didn't bother me too much since there were various items to add to the soup. I loved how I was given separate plates of chopped-up chili peppers, sliced Chả (pork roll), and Mắm Ruốc (shrimp paste). I love how they already had chili oil on the table, so I didn't have to ask like most places I've been to. I'd give my meal a 4.5/5. If the broth had a bit of flavor, then it would be been a solid 5. My wife ordered Cơm Đặc Biệt Phương Nam. She said that it did come with all 7 items as it said, but the portions were equivalent to what would be paid less elsewhere. She let me know that for the same price, she would've gotten a more generous portion at a different restaurant. The flavor was there though, so she gives it a 4/5. She recommends only ordering this particular dish if you're craving it, but your money is better spent on the noodle soups here. Overall experience was a 4/5. Customer service was great. Waiter was very attentive to our table. I would definitely recommend this place. First place to offer more sides to the Bún bò Huế. I had fun with my dish.

Great spot for yummy Vietnamese food. It’s located in a low profile shopping center but worth the visit.

If they bring out the simple menu, ask for the longer one. It’s where the hot pots are listed. Luckily I was with my Vietnamese friend who knew the ropes.

We ordered the seafood hotpot which had the most insanely flavorful broth. We also had the fish hotpot which was so so yummy. The garlic veggies were fantastic. My girls enjoyed their grilled pork. And my friend’s husband enjoyed his meatball pho.

Everything we had was super delicious and I can’t wait to come back.

Service was on the inefficient side for sure. But I’m not rating down because the food was that good.

It’s also very accessible. Plenty of room to move around and no stairs or awkward entrances.

This place is absolutely delicious. Their veal salad and Thai sweet and sour hot pot are so good ?.

1. The veal meat is super flavorful plus the sweetness of meat, herbs and sourness of lemon. Their sauce is on point, balance so well with the fish. You put a little meat on the cracker and put some sauce on top. Viola! You will get the most authentic delicious Vietnamese appetizers. So delicious ?

2. Thai sweet and sour hot pot is flavorful, you can taste the fresh ingredients with the amazing broth. Their broth is so good and smell amazing.

The restaurant is not as nice, but it has one of the. Most delicious authentic Vietnamese dishes that I have ever had here in U.S.

Their BBH, grilled meat with broken rice and Bún mắm are known well here as well.

Be brave and walk into the restaurant, it will impress you ?

What’s good babes - jt is back. This time with some BBH - big boot- I mean, bun bo hue… ? from Phuong Nam. Their portions are really good for their price, especially the amount of meat ? they give and their greens too. Noodles were cooked alright, meat was soft and tender - and broth was great! Taste was definitely there - not overly spicy ? but a bit of a kick. Seems to be a family styled run restaurant, can be really busy some days so don’t take it personally if they don’t have time to stand and chat for too long. Would definitely recommend BBH here. Hope you enjoy you ?
