Mai's is a Vietnamese restaurant in Houston, Texas that first opened in 1978.

It is located in Midtown.[2]

History

Originally opened in 1978 by Phin and Phac Nguyen,[1] Mai's was the first restaurant in Houston to feature Vietnamese cuisine.[3] The couple named the restaurant after their daughter, who took over the business in 1990.[1] Her name means "golden flower", and this meaning, of significance to the family, along with its relatively simple pronunciation, was a reason for its selection.[4] Mai had a signature dish, a beef stew.[5]

A fire on February 15, 2010 caused most of the roof to collapse.[6] The fire did not cause any injuries reported to authorities.[7]

Authorities determined the incident was caused by a wok that caught fire.[3] The restaurant re-opened on April 16, 2011.[3] The business has since been passed down to Mai's daughter Anna.[1] Phin Nguyen died in 2017.[8]

Anthony Bourdain visited Mai's when he went to Houston in 2015. That year he stated the restaurant gave him "The first great meal and most memorable great meal I had in Houston".[9]
