I've been wanting to try this place for a year now but I've never been in the mood for it when I'm in the area. But today was the day. It was a cold day and I knew a nice hot pho would hit the spot! I dined in alone. Very small restaurant with 7 or so tables. The atmosphere was very quaint and peaceful but it was soon disrupted by several delivery and Togo orders walking in and out, and standing/waiting in the small space. It definitely seemed like they were priority over diners. It took a very long time to receive my food after ordering. The restaurant was empty when I came in and one family had come in a good while after me, ordered and received appetizers long before I got my dish. My pho came and the temperature was between warm and hot. Pho should come out almost (if not) steaming. As a result, the noodles had all clumped together.... I really needed it hot because I was freezing, literally the thing that urged me to come in before going home. I would have asked them to reheat it but then the noodles would be completely gross and I didn't want to risk waiting another half hour or so to remake it. I ordered spice level 4... surprisingly it was a little too much for my liking. I'm used to pho being spiced by jalapeños and they used a seasoning that gave a different kind of heat. I prefer the jalapeño. I would have overlooked these things and definitely was going to give them another try during a lunch hour, but that hauled when I received my bill. I was charged $2 more than what the phone with beef was listed on the menu. Few things irk me more than when places aren't transparent with their prices, straight out overcharging than advertised. Only if they'd make this right I'd give them another chance.
We ordered carry out. It was late so it was ready pretty quick. The inside was fairly small & nothing fancy but the colors were nice & the food was pretty good. Chicken pot stickers for an appetizer were okay. Nothing special. I got the crispy garlic chicken with broccoli & fried rice. I Loved the chicken. I love spice but I decided on level 7 & it was perfect. Not too spicy & perfectly crispy. I will say the rice was very bland for my liking but I luckily asked for their hot sauce. I mixed the hot sauce with a tiny bit of yum yum sauce. Do yourself that favor & dip anything with that combo lol Oh & a salad. I personally loved the dressing for the house salad but my husband just said it was okay. So personal preference but maybe worth a try :) My husband got the chicken hibachi with fried rice & a couple pork egg rolls. He said the chicken & rice were good but not a fan of the egg roll. Overall it wasn't bad & we would try again sometime.
I ordered on Uber Eats (it was a late night working, okay ) and I didn't expect much, to be honest. Ordering Asian food for delivery is a lot like buying something on Temu; you never know what you're getting. But this is quite literally some of the best Asian food I've had in quite some time. I tried the Lettuce Wraps, Crispy Garlic Chicken and also ordered the Basil Fried Rice to take to work for lunch tomorrow. All I can say is Well Done. My tastebuds ascended from my body, into the heavens of flavor punches to the face and I'm left speechless at how delicious this food is. If it's this good delivered, I can't imagine how good it is at the actual restaurant. I'm going to call ahead to make sure the same chef is back there (assuming it was God Himself with how good the food is) just I can experience the in person train to flavor town. Thanks for tasty food y'all!
Food: 3.5/5 We got the gyoza, chicken pad Thai, hibachi steak, and Thai tea (cause you know I'm obsessed). Gyoza is nice and crispy with a good dipping sauce. The chicken pad Thai was a bit heavy on the fish sauce for me, but it might have just been that order. I ordered the spice at a six, thinking it wouldn't be hot, but it had more kick than expected. Hibachi steak was good with yum yum dipping sauce. The Thai teas were tasty and a nice sweet treat. I didn't order it this time, but their chicken khao soi soup is super tasty. It inspired me to make it home. Definitely, my favorite dish there. Service: 4.5/5 I've never been there when it's packed, so usually, the service is fast and attentive. However, they are pumping out a lot of take-out orders, so at the same time, the staff is busy. Atmosphere: 3.5/5 Small and intimate dining room. The space is clean and feels very warmly decorated. They have many lucky bamboo plants, so you know it's a great Asian restaurant. Their parking is limited, but their takeout is well executed.
The pictures make the sushi look amazing but it is not at all. I couldn't eat a roll it had a rotten fish flavor. The wings were good but that was about it. We were also the only people in the restaurant so that was not a very good sign. Service was good nothing special.
We Uber eats Asian spice bistro pretty frequently & let me tell you, they have never missed! We order our favorite, crispy garlic chicken, every time and it remains to be delicious!! The chicken is still crispy by the time we receive our order and the flavoring of the sauce is too good. I highly recommend.
For these lunch special prices, I'd definitely go back. I work in the area and a friend of mine suggested this place when we went out for lunch. I love Thai food so I was eager to try it out. From the outside it may look a bit out of place and shady, but once you go inside, you"ll see it's actually a nice little restaurant inside. They offer great deals for lunch from sushi rolls to noodles and rice. I think he portions are just right as well as you don't feel stuffed afterwards but your hunger is satisfied. I got the Drunken Noodles. Although it was darker and sicker than I usually get, the noodles were still tasty. I actually love sauces and want a lot so it worked out better for me. However, that does make the noodles softer rather than a bit stiff like drunken noodles are. I did wish it had a little more vegetables. My friends got sushi rolls that seemed fresh and delicious. They are larger rolls so filling if you just got one for lunch. It seems a lot of people do take out from there as it isn't that busy for lunch inside the restaurant (the place is smaller so probably for the best) and I saw a lot of folks come in and out to pick up orders. This isn't my favorite Thai place in Cincinnati, but I would be back for the lunch specials so I can try more of the dishes.

I was going to give this spot 3 start until I tasted my friend's leftover sweet potato roll. It was good enough to earn a star. WOW! I will be going out of my way to get it again sometime. We grabbed takeout to eat at the park. My husband got pineapple fried rice (3/10 spice). He said it was superrrr hot and not good enough to get again. My friend got the amazing sweet potato roll and a spicy salmon roll. I got a salmon pistachio roll and ton kha gai soup. The salmon rolls were so bland (and oddly the soy sauce packs and spicy mayo were too) that I started questioning my taste buds and if something was wrong. read more

Took a try on this place. Won't do it again. Does that really look like $18 worth of salad? 5 pcs of spinach, maybe 26 pcs of iceberg, 3 slices of tomato, and two cucumber slices. The general chicken was pretty good. the spider roll was cooked in burnt oil, and the eel roll was just dry. $58 please. read more

Some stars added because theTom Kha was good, as was my roommate's Pho). The problem arose with my meal. I ended up not receiving the Khao Soi as advertised. There were very few red onions, no crispy egg noodles (instead they gave me a handful of damp wonton strips), no shallots, and no pickled mustard greens, as they stated should be included. I ended up basically just getting curry with some soft (bland and partially hardened) noodles, which is not what I ordered and was a frankly unacceptable substitute of their regular yellow curry with noodles. If I wanted curry with bad noodles I'd have ordered their curry and used some store-bought nasty noodles. Gross and overpriced and unfortunately enough to deter me from trying what used to be a staple anytime soon. EDIT: oh wait, the tom yum very obviously didn't include any cooked mushrooms and arrived cold. The mushrooms that WERE on it still had a raw texture and were obviously tossed on top of soup that I suspect had sat on the counter long enough to get cold. I didn't eat the shrimp and suspect it wasn't safe. ANOTHER EDIT: There were small pieces of chicken in the Khao Soi. I ordered tofu. This is a cluster, jfc. The tom kha averted these issues, thankfully. read more
Crab rangoon - fantasic! California Roll - good! Shrimp Tempura Roll - not a fan... not sure why, just didn't hit the spot. Three Flavored Snapper - awesome! It's a breaded snapper topped with tamarind and ginger soy sauce served with steamed broccoli and I can't handle _any_ spice so I got "zero" (yes the receipt actually said "zero spicey" and it had a mild zing to it. I'm certain if you like spice a one through ten would light you up, and have at it! Interesting how many take out and UberEats orders went out in the 30 minutes we were there! Give it a try eat in or take out or delivery, I think it's a good call! read more
Stopped by Asian Spice as we were just drive by and had the crave for some sushi Housed in a previous Lees Chicken, there is hardly any reminisce of the old place. Service was friendly and prompt. The sushi was excellent in my opinion, fresh and rolled right. I enjoyed the Pad Thai, coconut soup. Asian Spice is no newby to restaurants as they are owned by Lemon Grass, and Wild Ginger. read more

My sister showed me this place. It is a small restaurant with great service and amazing food! I got the Chicken Potstickers ($4.95) and the Pho Noodle Soup with chicken ($11.95). The food was absolutely delicious and the portion size was huge. The waitress was super nice. The restaurant was clean. I will definitely be back. read more

I'm always skeptic of menus that have too many different Asian cuisine, but this place nailed every single item we ordered! The Thai masama curry and Thai Spicy stir fry were both fresh, flavorful, and delicious. Some of the best Thai food on the west side. The sushi (we got the Boston roll) was also very fresh, made to order right in the front section of the restaurant. Definitely would come back just for the sushi! The hot and sour soup was killer but the summer rolls were the only item that was just ok. Everything else was great. And if you still can eat more, ask for the sticky rice and mango for dessert. The rice was warm and covered in sweetened condensed milk with a side of sweet cubbed mango - the best end to a delicious meal! My tip: order spicer than you normally do, we got an 8/10 and it wasn't spicy at all. read more

My friend and I settled on Asian Spice for dinner, and we're so glad that we did!! It has a little bit of everything, and everything was delicious!!! We had an appetizer with potstickers and Rangoon and an egg roll... ate it all! I had a sushi roll, and she had wonton soup... again all gone!! Then she had chicken and vegetables over rice and I had the pho neither of us could finish, but we're both excited for the leftovers!!! We will be back!!!!!! read more

I am constantly searching for the best Asian restaurants around town and I have to say Asian Spice is pretty good. I ordered traditional fried rice with chicken and a shrimp tempura roll. The roll was industry standard. It had a good crunch and I was happy to see that it came with a side of wasabi and ginger. My sushi delivery experience in general has been a little unpredictable. The fried rice was delicious. They ask you for the spice level of the dish (1-10) and as a spicy food enthusiast I decided to go with level 7. Being a new restaurant for me I wanted to gauge their spice levels safely and level 7 wasn't bad. I'd probably even go up one or two levels next time. I also had enough food for leftovers which is always nice! read more
