We sampled many dishes at this innovative Vietnamese restaurant. For appetizer, we had pandan okra, and spring rolls. The tools were delicious, but the okra was old and hard to chew, also didn’t taste of pandan at all. Cocktails were on point. They put their spin on tacos and pizza, and we gave them both a try. However they were a bit too greasy for our liking. We also shared lobster salted egg fried rice. We couldn’t taste salted egg even though that should be the highlight of the dish. Overall, food was sub par for the pricing. Interesting ideas not well executed. Good service and vibe.

Went to dinette with high expectations but didn't enjoy the food in particular. Ordered the spring roll, tofu mushroom curry and panda fried okra The spring roll was just ur run of the mill spring roll so not so bad. The tofu mushroom curry wasn't anytbing crazy and pandan fried okra just wasn't for me, the texture didn't cut it for me but maybe others will enjoy it.

Really enjoyed dining here. Attentive servers and the food was excellent! Lot of good choices and everything looked amazing! Made it hard to choose, because you want to try everything! Their bakery next door has really good offerings also. Check them out after dinner, if you don't already order desert. The decor is also really nice.

Staff is super duper friendly!! Food is amazing, like how my mom, grandma, and the ladies at the Vietnamese churches make it. The food is authentic but approachable, unique, but not pretentious, cozy, and exciting! Recommendations: Entrees: - Pho nachos and Tofu Curry; the best of both cuisine worlds and the most authentic version of how my mom makes curry!! - Snow Mushroom Salad and the freaking fried rice; both of these are commonplace Vietnamese wedding dishes, and these are THE BEST in town!! Bakery: Honestly, whatever is available, it's worth taking a trip through the entire bakery for creations that taste like my grandma's to crazy unique pandan cinnamon rolls 😋

Was excited to try this place because of good average score. Disappointed. Especially in the Vietnamese hotspot Houston. Interior is pretty cool/sleek and staff was very nice. But the food…just not tasty. Had Hanoi rolls, snow mushroom salad and fries. Nothing is really “Vietnamese” - it’s all fusion and not flavorful at all. Snow mushroom salad was even bland.

Awesome experience at Dinette! They are very aware of allergies and the server even asked while she was taking our order if there were any allergies and let me know what would not fit my dietary restriction (I am gluten free & almost the entire menu is safe). We tried the Hanoi egg rolls, pho nachos, Vietnamese grilled pizza & Vietnamese Benedict(from the brunch menu). Our water & iced tea were kept refilled and everything was delicious! Hope to come back soon!

The restaurant emanated a wonderful ambiance, complemented by the warm and friendly servers. The food exceeded expectations, with a swift and satisfying dining experience. Opting for brunch, I found immense pleasure in their Egg Benedict, while the pandan fried Okra dish surprised me with its unique twist. Adjacent to the restaurant, the petite bakery held its own charm, offering intriguing selections. Overall, the experience was delightful leave a lasting impression and would recommend.

We went for an early dinner and there was plenty of room. There started to be more people closer to regular dinner time. Parking may be a bit difficult as the plaza is cramped. Staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We got the lobster salted egg fried rice and the tofu mushroom curry. The complementary pickled vegetables help cut the grease in the fried rice. The fried rice was very tasty but pretty salty. The tofu mushroom curry was very fragrant and pretty sweet as most curries go, likely from the coconut milk. The menu is relatively small but curated. We didn't try any drinks but the cocktails sound amazing. The food was tasty but very Americanized. Not sure I would come again but I enjoyed the food and experience.
