Chinatown, Houston
Bellaire Chinatown
A large Asian shopping district along Bellaire Boulevard, famous for dim sum, Sichuan food, Vietnamese pho, and Viet-Cajun crawfish.
Stretching for several miles along Bellaire Boulevard in southwest Houston, this is one of the largest Chinese and Vietnamese neighborhoods in the American South. Hong Kong City and other big Asian supermarkets anchor hundreds of restaurants. Cantonese dim sum, Sichuan and Hunan dishes, Taiwanese snacks, and bubble tea are all authentic. Vietnamese pho and garlicky Viet-Cajun crawfish (in season roughly January through June) are local signatures. Most shops are in strip malls with parking lots, so you'll need a car.
Opening hours
Hours vary by shop; most open 10:00–22:00
