After Rooster I'd say Banh Mi Bon on Westheimer just west of BW8

Le baguette on Ella and 34th is tasty. Also, second Roostar

Roostar obvi
But if I want something close to me I settle for Bao Bao
The spicy pork is really good.

Ba Mien Bistro near 1960/Champions Forest. The spring rolls and pho are great too.

Yelo at Katy Asian Town is one I'd like to try.

Since you're Upper East Side, there's a place called Sweet Escape across from Atascocita HS that makes a good one but they only do chicken
or beef. I wish they had grilled pork on the menu.

I've heard Hughie's makes an off menu shaking beef that I'd love to try.

Lee's Sandwiches = Subway. Not that good but better than nothing.

Used to be a place on Milam that had sardine bang mi. Mostly served during lent but loved them, the wife, not so much.

Yep, they closed. I used to get those, along with their fresh banana chips

Nguyen Ngo on Bellaire Blvd. Right around the corner from Lee's but so much better. The large sandwiches with 4 meats are only like $4. Not fancy roostar style sandwiches but pretty authentic and most of the times I eaten there I was the only round eyed fella in the joint. Place used to only take cash but I haven't been there post 'rona so that might have changed.

One time I was in the neighborhood around lunch and made an impromptu stop. Only had like $3 cash on me so the large sandwich wasn't happening that day. I went up to the counter and ordered a small sandwich and the Vietnamese dude taking my order said "are you a little girl? Small sandwich only for little girl! /heavy Vietnamese accent\"

That place is legit. Got to get double meat tho, skimpy in the single serving

Nguyen Ngo and Don's, also on Bellaire, are the two best I've had. Cash only though.

Agree with Roostar. There's also a place near us called Pho Ton Express that's been really really solid.

Ok spelling correction noted. Yes I know that spot. Love their chicken Pho but I still prefer Roostar to their Banh Mi's. They ARE good though. Pho Saigon just down the way from them has better beef pho and dear god their short rib rice plate is to die for.

There it is. That's the one I was waiting to see.

Man, we tried it a few weeks back and we were pretty disappointed after so many people say it's amazing.

Covid to blame?
Everyone has fond memories of midtown adventures while drunk?

What's the story?

Both spots are legit but I like Pho Luc Lac right around the corner on Kempwood.

I think their pho is the best in town.

Probably a little less know... had top ones listed in thread, but do like this one a lot:

Nguyen Ngoc

Second the Bahn Mi Bistro - a little pricier than a regular Bahn Mi place, but very good as I recall.

We always liked Pho Binh near the Galleria.

Added bonus was that many of the area "dancers" would come for lunch so people watching was generally excellent.
