Welcome to Bụi Quán

“ Today, we enjoyed a fantastic lunch, sampling the special bun bo hue noodle soup with oxtails, the mi bo kho (beef stew with egg noodles), and Babylon snails cooked in garlic butter. The bun bo broth was light yet flavorful. All the protein additions were tender and satisfying. The bo kho featured a rich and hearty broth. The beef pieces were soft and fell apart easily, just the way I prefer. The Babylon snails had a slightly chewy texture that went quite well with the garlic butter sauce. It was an excellent appetizer. On the day we visited, the restaurant offered complimentary sugarcane juice with every meal ordered, which was a lovely bonus. The staff were friendly, and the food arrived quickly. We will certainly return. ”

“ Decent bun Bo hue, the broth is clean and light. I enjoyed the mam but you have to ask for it. We also asks for extra veggies but none was provided. We didn’t bother asking for it again. It seemed like the employees would rather stand around talking with each other than checking on tables. ”

“ Heard so much about this place on social media for having one of the best Bún Bò Huế, and you know me—I love BBH, so of course I had to try it. We came for Sunday lunch and the restaurant was really busy, but there was no wait. The staff were very friendly and told us to sit wherever we wanted. I love the decorations in there really Hue, I forgot to took picture lol. I ordered the regular Bún Bò Huế (without oxtail). It came with everything a good BBH should have, but what really surprised me was the crab cake. I have never seen a restaurant include this, and it’s actually the real Vietnamese way. I clearly remember eating BBH in Vietnam and it always came with crab cake, but this is the only place I’ve seen do it here. I was genuinely impressed. It also came with a dipping sauce, which I believe is a mix of shrimp paste, minced lemongrass, a little oil, and kumquat juice. It was so good and completely changed my mind—I never thought BBH needed a dipping sauce, but this one works perfectly. The BBH itself was piping hot and full of flavor. If you like your BBH more bold and salty like I do, you can ask for raw shrimp paste and add a bit in—highly recommend. Honestly, this place might be my #1 BBH spot so far. It has everything I want in a bowl of BBH, so hands down to Bụi Quán. My husband ordered the Bò Kho (Vietnamese beef stew), which is his favorite, so he’s very strict with his opinion. He thought it was really good—flavorful, not too soupy. We asked for extra carrots and they were very generous. I tried it too and agreed—the flavor was there and the color looked great. Both dishes came with two full baskets of vegetables, and they definitely didn’t skimp. I love that—it really reminded me of Vietnam. Service was great overall. Our waiter was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. Before leaving, we grabbed a sugarcane juice. For $6, you get a pretty big cup—definitely worth it. It was refreshing, and I loved the slight sourness from the kumquat. Will definitely be back to try more dishes. Great food, good prices, and excellent service. ”

“ I had a regular bún bò and a sugar cane juice. Overall it’s pretty good, the bún bò soup is a bit bland; it doesn’t have much of lemongrass scent and mắm ruốc taste, but they do provide a side cup of sauce that seems to be a blend of lemongrass and watered down mắm ruốc. Adding this to the soup arouses the flavors a whole lot. Good food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. ”

“ Very flavorful and delicious! One of the best bun Bo hues in Houston! Plenty of parking! Very friendly service and welcoming! Nathan was so sweet and made sure everything was ok for us! It is our first time and won’t be our last! And their sugar cane is so well rounded and flavor as well too! ”

“ Bun Bo Hue (Spicy Beef Noodle) is so good @Bui Quan. I have not had a chance to try other dishes in the menu. Need to return to Bui Quan soon ”

“ Lovely restaurant inside Hong Kong City mall. The menu was very small when I went (which I understand since they’ve been working hard in expanding). I got the Bun Bo Hue. Broth was bland, but it paired well with everything else in the bowl so it was a 10/10 for me. Service was very quick, was kind of hard to flag down our server. Definitely come if you’re in for a quick eat. ”

“ HUGE bowls of soup, super generous portions of meat, everybody gets their own bowl of rau/veggies. Soups are flavorful but they provide shrimp paste/fish sauce/sate/etc for you to change to your taste. Prices on actual menu is a little higher than what is on the banner outside, though (+.50c - $1). Very satisfying, my family all Loved it :) ”
