V Bistro - Vietnamese Noodles & Grill 4489 West Davis Street, Conroe, TX 77304

"Alright alright alright! Recently opened, this second location is excellent in every way. The interior is bright, classy, and inviting. The service is young and attentive. Most importantly, everything we've tried so far has been among the best Vietnamese we've had in a long time. The pho is deep and complex while being super fresh and vibrant. The chicken vermicelli is reminiscent of the best we've had at Ba Mien in FM 1960, or Huynh near downtown. A great discovery is their chicken wings, served with flat and drum attached. Perfectly and lightly fried, with an excellent sweet chili sauce - one of our new favorites. You can tell this ain't their first rodeo - the space is very well thought out, beautifully designed and executed. This is a great addition to the growing options along the 105 corridor from Conroe to Montgomery. We're already regulars."

"Very cute and clean restaurant. Lots of seating and in a safe location with lots of parking. The pho doesn’t have a lot of depth to it but I have faith in them improving the depth of the broth in the future. Banh mi was crisp and fresh"

"Stellar experience and fresh ingredients only! The Vietnamese cafe latte features an adorable, glass as a keepsake. The combination pho and meatball pho are the attached pictures on this review. There is also the basil garnish plate, and eye of round steak for the combination pho. For dessert, I had the Taro boba smoothie. This was made with fresh taro and the tapioca pearls are tender. The staff will ask you, how sweet you want the smoothie. Conroe, do your best to keep this place! The other places were good in the beginning, but never stayed consistent. This place is beyond amazing with great prices and quality ingredients."

"Food was tasty and the price was reasonable. PHO was pleasant it didn't lack flavor at all. Once you add all the other ingredients and squeeze the lime juice it brings the taste of the ginger to the broth. We ordered the mint milk tea it was good. Our waitress was very pleasant and accommodating. Everyone was welcoming. Definitely recommended"

"V Bistro is a decent Vietnamese Grill, food was ok, the PHO is lacking in flavor so this is not a place to go for PHO, the rest of the food is decent enough, they are new to the area so they just need some time to build up and adjust the menu. I had their H2 which Is the Basil Flat Noodle, I forgot to ask for them not to include the shrimp tail, almost all Vietnamese restaurants include the tail for "flavor" but I am not much on eating the shell of the shrimp tail, so that was my fault for failure to ask them to remove it. The rest of the dish was ok, decent flavor and fresh. We also tried their Pho GA with Meatballs, but they do not make the normal Pho broth but instead its basically slightly flavored water, meaning no additional real flavor, so we definitely do not recommend the Pho, we have had Pho from many places around Houston and they use the normal Pho broth but not V Bistro, so avoid that dish. Next was the Bahn Mi, it was missing the normal liver pate and only had the meat, cucumber, carrot and cilantro, not a typical Vietnamese dish either, with missing the pate on it, it lacked the typical Vietnamese flavor, so this is Americanized, and really not authentic, another food loss on flavor and substance, not recommended if you want authentic but if you do not like the liver pate then it might be ok for you. The pate really is a staple to a typical Vietnamese Bahn Mi though. Finally we tried their Stir Fried Chicken and Vegetables, this was bland but ok, ended up taking it home for a leftover to eat later, it was missing something (not by menu, I mean by taste) but overall it was at least colorful and had chicken and they forgot the cup of soup. According to the menu, it says all rice plates come with a cup of chicken soup, but honestly I do not think that the R10 qualifies as a rice plate, so it really depends. This wording is below R13 in the menu, maybe it is a misprint and needs to be moved up to under R5? No idea. The employees were all very friendly and prompt which is a great selling point to the restaurant, additionally the place is very clean and organized, there was plenty of room to get around however, I could see someone with a wheelchair having issues moving around some, but with some shifting of chairs and tables they could probably get around fine. Overall I give this place a 4 only because of the employees and atmosphere, the food sits at a 3 though, not sure I could bring myself to get it up to a 4 based on missing ingredients in dishes and lack of flavor for authentic Vietnamese food. Give them a try though, let them know how well they do and if there is anything missing, they have plenty of room to grow and are a welcome addition to the community."
