Cultures absorb different influences back upon themselves, and Kâu Ba is Chef Nikki Tran’s voice from the opposite side of the world. Nikki reimagines Vietnamese cuisine by adding a Cajun twist, bringing back forgotten dishes, and introducing new ones to Houston’s modern food scene. Kâu Ba is where fresh, artisanal flavors balance a French and Vietnamese curated bar program.

It’s humble dining with an edge.
