No wonder this place is closing.
It's just so dismal as soon as you walk in. Oppressively warm. Only two people working the floor. Tables piled with food that hasn't been cleared. Everyone, diners and workers, just looks so unhappy.

They didn't have everything that is shown on the online menu. The food that we did try was ok. We actually left after having two appetizers to go eat somewhere else

Years ago, Xin Chao was quite the exclusive spot, and during my visit, the only thing I recall considering were the egg rolls. However, what truly captured my attention was the patio lighting in the evening, which created a cozy and cool ambiance. A

Cute spot off of Washington and love the modern interior! Staffing was a bit questionable when I visited on Saturday morning - restaurant appeared to be completely closed and I almost left before someone opened the door about 10 minutes after opening

Food, service, and sanitation has gone down SO far since the change in management/ownership. Xin Chao has been a go to spot for us the last two years because of the delicious food and generous happy hour, however, we will not be back. The waitstaff
Food was amazing, service was beyond terrible.
The tables, chairs, and glassware were all dirty. We waited 20 minutes before we had to asked if we could have our order taken. He acted confused and it was very awkward ordering. Was constantly trying to get the waiters attention for simple things l

Disappointed I ordered espresso martini, very odd that waiter said why don't you try lychee instead. I said, no I want espresso one. Then he says we are out of espresso. I ordered the drunken mussels from app side for dinner. It was no-go because

Would not recommend going here while they have their crawfish special going on. We were so excited to try the crawfish special - 5 lbs for $40 - and left 3 hours later incredibly disappointed and half full. We came on a Monday night, place was about
We waited so long to come here only because of the price.
We made a reservation but really didn't need it. It took a min for a waiter to come. I think I only saw a total of 3 men working. One was doing a ton of walking around. My glass of water had a fly in it and I had to ask for a new glass. The oyste
The dry rub crawfish were really good.
The spicy garlic crawfish were good. Viet oysters were really good. Drinks were a bit pricey. Overall a good experience

Ive been wanting to try this place out for awhile now but left somewhat disappointed. I ordered some crawfish to-go. It said it would be ready 20 minutes after ordering, so I showed up 5 minutes past pick up time. It still wasn't ready. Then it too

I have been here several times and the food/drinks are fantastic! This review is for Saturday happy hour last weekend. We arrived around 3pm and it was quiet only 2-3 other tables. First I had to swap my green velvet chair with the one next to us a
So I gotta say, I've been here a few times before.
The food is GREAT, no complaints there. A bit expensive though (Seriously, almost 30 bucks for fried rice with a tiny bit of brisket... FRIED RICE.) I'm posting this review today because of how I was treated last night when I tried to eat there. Fi
Went here on a Sunday and it was such a vibe.
Ate and drank at the bar. Egg rolls are bomb and beef tip noodles were amazing. Go see cute bartender Alex!!
We went here to celebrate an 18 year old's birthday.
He wanted Viet-Cajun crawfish and Xin Chao has now merged with Saigon House on 1960 that recently closed. I believe that the chefs are siblings. We all love Tony Nguyen and Siagon House so we followed him here. Food: 1) Appetizers: * Pork Belly Ba

Enjoyed a Sunday lunch at Xin Chao.
Was also pleasantly surprised to see they do weekend happy hour. The food, the service and the ambiance are fantastic. Good wine list and beers as well as mixed drinks. We had the egg rolls and Pork belly Bao as starters and both were fantastic.
First time at Xin Chao in over a year.
.. and was a bit disappointed. We went for the special HTX Mini Restaurant Week. I was excited for the pork belly and they apparently were completely out of pork related menu items... which always sounds like bad planning on their part but I obviousl

Oh man, I had extremely high expectations for this restaurant but it was a major let down instead. Great vibe, and environment. I love the decors and finishes of the establishment. Service was great. Food was a huge miss for us. Shaken beef that was
Phenomenal place with fantastic food.
Huge fan of the pork belly bao, Saigon old fashioned, Nguyener Nguyener chicken dinner, sidewinder fries, and basically everything else we've had.

I was very very excited to try Xin Chào based on reviews and being on multiple recommendation lists for Houston. We had the grilled oysters - they were okay. A bit dry and I felt the ingredients didn't add much compared to how delicious it sounds on

Went with my Vietnamese parents and aunt and uncle who like to eat modernized dishes, and though the food was overpriced and portion size for sharing was not a lot to make you spend even more, the quality, service, and ambience was nice here. Unique
Service is terrible.
Host clearly hates their job. Empty ass place and they made it difficult to get a table. Food is mediocre and overpriced. This is hardly a viet restaurant besides the egg rolls. They're only in business because of their celebrity tv chef.
Read all the rave about must try new Asian Fusion
Read all the rave about must try new Asian Fusion Restaurant in Houston and was disappointed. Food was aight nothing special. A little overpriced, would rather eat at Saigon's House for better food at a lower price.
Modern Vietnamese in HTX
Vietnamese food isn't usually high end but Xin Chao is excellent in presentation and flavor. I wasn't sure what to expect since my friend recommended it and I had anticipated going elsewhere until I found out that the other restaurant I wanted to try
Unique spin - award winning
Overall very tasty. Got some of the recommended dishes - pork belly, fried chicken, wagyu meatballs. All were good and presented nicely. Expect it to be packed and you will need a reservation.

AppointmentTrader is een community-gedreven platform waar gebruikers hun reserverings kunnen ruilen of hun persoonlijke relaties met Xin Chào Houston kunnen benutten. Kopers kunnen weloverwogen beslissingen nemen met behulp van geautomatiseerde verkopersbeoordelingen, die eerdere transacties en betrouwbaarheid weerspiegelen.
Elke plaatsing op AppointmentTrader toont je welke gebruiker deze heeft ingediend en geeft daarbij een overzicht van de gebruiker, waarin aangegeven wordt hoeveel ervaring deze gebruiker heeft en bij hoeveel procent van hun transacties zij een terugbetaling hebben uitgevoerd.
Als er geen gebruikersplaatsing is die past bij jouw schema, kun je bieden op jouw gewenste tijd.
Stel, Peter heeft een geweldige ochtend en besluit zijn drie vrienden mee te nemen naar Xin Chào Houston om 18:00 uur diezelfde dag.
Hij controleert de website van het restaurant en ziet dat er geen reserveringen beschikbaar zijn. Vervolgens bekijkt hij de Xin Chào Houston pagina op AppointmentTrader, maar ontdekt dat er ook geen aanbiedingen van andere gebruikers zijn.
Daar komt het door de community aangedreven biedproces van pas.
Peter kan een bod plaatsen op AppointmentTrader. Dit bod dient als beloning voor ieder communitylid dat helpt om de reservering te regelen. AT stuurt dan notificaties naar ervaren gebruikers die mogelijk kunnen helpen.
Stapsgewijs Proces
1.) Beloning Instellen (Bod)
* AppointmentTrader gebruikt historische data om een redelijk beloningsbedrag aan te bevelen voor het regelen van een reservering – stel, $100.
* Peter wil er graag heen, dus verhoogt hij het bod (de beloning) naar $200.
* Op dit punt bestaat de reservering nog niet.
2.) Een Communitygebruiker Neemt het Bod Op
* FluffyStar64, een ervaren AT-gebruiker, heeft veel succes met het regelen van reserveringen en ontvangt weinig terugbetalingsverzoeken. Zij ontvangen een melding van Peter’s bod van $200.
* FluffyStar64 neemt het bod op, wat betekent dat zij nu gaan proberen de reservering te regelen.
* Peter kan nu met FluffyStar64 overleggen als hij vragen heeft terwijl FluffyStar64 het bod probeert te vervullen.
3.) De Reservering Vinden
* FluffyStar64 gebruikt nu hun contacten bij Xin Chào Houston om de tafel te regelen.
* Als het lukt om de tafel voor vier om 18:00 uur te bemachtigen, krijgt Peter een bevestiging dat de reservering geslaagd is.
* Als FluffyStar64 de reservering niet kan regelen, gaat het bod terug in de pool zodat een andere gebruiker het kan proberen.
4.) Betaling & Bescherming
* Zodra de reservering is geregeld, ontvangt FluffyStar64 de $200 beloning, die wordt bijgeschreven op het AT-saldo van FluffyStar64. Gebruikers beheren hun eigen saldo en kunnen laten uitbetalen via opties zoals bankoverschrijving, PayPal of Zelle.
* Peter kan nu genieten van het diner met zijn vrienden bij Xin Chào Houston!
* Zoals bij alle transacties op AT worden geschillen en no-show kosten afgehandeld via het community-gedreven resolutiesysteem van het platform. Gebruikers met een sterke reputatie worden gestimuleerd om biedingen succesvol te vervullen, en communityleden kunnen problemen melden om het vertrouwen in de marktplaats te waarborgen.
