Lem's Kitchen & Lounge

Honestly, I’ve heard so many mixed reviews for this place, was very hesitant in trying it. They’re running a $9 special for Bun Bo Hue for the month of February. This is not a bad deal, bc normally a bow like this is like $16-$18 in Katy/Cypress area. I was down by Bellaire so stopped in for a quick lunch. The bowl of BBH came out piping hot and looks delicious! But it just wasn’t what I liked in BBH. The broth didn’t have a lot of lemongrass flavor but on the sweeter side. Had to use a lot of shrimp paste and adjust it to my liking.. somewhat. The meat portions was okay. It’s enough for me. But I was very disappointed in the veggies.. it was mainly just green leaf lettuce. Wish there was more herbs to it. Overall, it isn’t a bad bowl of Bun Bo Hue, just not my preference. But it is a good

Was here for happy hour which was 50% off drinks which was nice. They have specials every month , and this months special was Pho. Was quite tasty and full of beef flavor. Also had the bun Bo hue which was very good, but needed xtra chili sauce. Great place for get together as it has great Karaoke vibes and games. Conveniently located on Bellaire across the street from HK Food market. Thank you Lem for the great service and recommendations, will be back for lunch to try the rest of the menu

We went to this Lem's Kitchen lounge last night. Everything we ordered was delicious. I especially like the razor clams with spinach. The stir fry seafood noodles was good also. They play Vietnamese music and have karaoke also.

We just happened to stop by Lem's Kitchen for a weekday lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the food and service. Service was 10/10! The server and possibly the owner herself made sure that we were taken care of the entire time 😊 We decided to try three items on the lunch menu. Bun Bo Hue - fresh, flavorful, and well seasoned. Portion size was generous, the restaurant wasn't stingy with the meats. Bun Bo Cay - they weren't kidding about the spice factor. Very spicy but delicious! Make sure to have some water handy. Goi Cuon Lo Tai Heo Mam Nem - a quick appetizer consisting of pig ear spring rolls with fish sauce. Basic but we'll executed. Atmosphere was quite loud. While this wasn't our preferred choice during a quick lunch, it makes sense as the restaurant promotes itself as night

12/29/2025 Best Mi Quang I’ve tried so far. The waiter, he was so kind to explain all ingredients and give us good recommendations of Vietnamese food to try for lunch.
