    This place is wonderful. I highly recommend sitting at the bar and trying as many dishes as possible. We had pho, shaken beef, and fried spring rolls, and it was all fantastic. Our bartender was also a joy. We'll definitely be back.

    We love this neighborhood Vietnamese. Quality has been maintained over the years as they have expanded. Pho was on point. Shrimp salad was delicious. Highly recommend this place!

    I ordered 2 strawberry soda drinks for my 10 and 12 year old and one of them had vodka in it. My daughter freaked out when she took a sip and had a total breakdown as she just got out of the hospital a few days ago for tonsils. I told the server and they were apologetic and gave us 2 free ones but she didn’t want to drink it. Pretty unbelievable how that can happen. Food was decent but I probably won’t go back .

    I think the food was delicious, but there is no option to exclude coriander from the food. The atmosphere was good, especially Emily, who was very kind.

    My dinner club had a fantastic time last week at Pho Lang Thang. It was my first time but will not be my last. The staff did a great job accommodating our large group. Everything I tried was outstanding, especially the fried spring rolls and shrimp chips and mushroom congee. YUM.

    I was thrilled I could get a reso for 8 in the new location. Shared this gem while back in town for a wedding with Cincinnati friends that have never been- they were blown away. Brian our server was thoughtful, attentive, accommodating, suggestive and made us feel welcome! I even got a pork ( add pate !) bahn Mi sandwich to keep in my hotel for later 😉 the rare steak with meatball pho is pho-nominal. I live in Charleston SC and Pho Lang is second to none. A must on every visit.. one request PLEASE figure out parking- somehow - we had ti hop out of our car and the driver and friend were well over a half hour late and frustrated not able to find parking - and another couple that gave up after circling for almost and hour and left. 😭

    Great food but a little inconsistent with portions. Beef jerky is awesome but tonite we got two puny pieces. Broken rice bowl with spring roll rocked my world as did the lychee martini

    This is one of my favorite restaurants. They have amazing vegan options. I recommend the Bun Chay with fried tofu, the vegan pho and the fresh salad rolls. Very fresh. Great service. And it comes out fast.

    Used to be one of the best hidden gems in Cincinnati. But the quality has taken such a sad nose dive. My husband was served fried chicken so dry he couldn’t eat it. We shared my shaken beef which was ok but not amazing for the price. I miss the days of impeccable banh mis (now only served at lunch and things paid extra for are always ignored). I miss the old PLT!

    I had not been to Pho Lang Thang since the move, but the food was just as delicious. The Bun is so fresh and delicious and you can't go wrong with their Pho. Our server, Brandon, was great too. I sort of miss the old atmosphere from when it was in Findlay, but that's something I'll get used to. This is definitely a must for Vietnamese food.

    The food was okay. But before the food was served, the restroom smell stinked so bad. I visited here twice recently and both times it was very hard to withstand it for the first 10 min. My nose got tired and the food was served then I didn’t smell it but both times it was terrible. Maybe it is not a bathroom smell but it stinks pretty bad. Please fix the smell issue. The noodles wasn’t pleasant either. It smelled from the noodles.

    Pho was delicious. The broth was mild but complex and the toppings were fresh and plentiful. The rolls were good and came with really good dipping sauces Service was attentive even for a large party. Iced coffee was amazing. Nobody at the table had any complaints.

    Overall, the vibe was great - but the pho was not the best. It had a super oniony flavor that was overpowering against everything else. I don’t know if I would go back - but the mango soda was delicious and not too sweet!
