Great visit here! I'm from the West Coast where I feel like Vietnamese is more plentiful so it was really nice to finally check this place out after all of the hype my friends have given me. I put in for reservations on a Saturday evening outside and I'm not sure if I needed it. However it was a great experience overall. Charlie was our waiter and he was super helpful and friendly. We shared some appetizers of salad rolls as well as the chicken wings. Five stars for those! My friend had the banh mi and I had the pho with meatball and brisket. Five stars! Delicious food! Literally all top notch. Looking forward to coming back and trying more. read more

Came here after graduation to celebrate my cousin, and it was a great spot for a laid-back meal. Pho Lang Tang has a modern Vietnamese kitchen vibe that feels clean and welcoming, and it was easy to sit, relax, and actually have a conversation without too much noise. We ordered a variety of entrees, but the highlight was definitely the pho. The broth tasted very close to what you'd find in California and even Vietnam, which was a pleasant surprise. Really rich, balanced, and comforting. The only downside was the lack of fresh herbs on the side. It only came with a dish of bean sprouts, so it felt like it was missing that extra freshness that usually completes a bowl of pho. Service was amazing, mostly students from UC. But everyone was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Parking was pretty easy, which made the whole experience even smoother. Overall, still a solid spot, especially if you're craving pho that tastes authentic. read more

Came in for late dinner after arriving into town. Felt like something got and the pho fits the ticket. Has a side salad to go with it and tried the supposedly best chicken wings in town. Service was great. Wings were ok. A tad dry for me. Simple salad meets my needs. The bowls of pho had generous amount of noodles. Good amount of protein as well. I like the 4 protein bowl because of the tendons. read more

Pros: Great location in Cincy Love the retro decor Pho had a wonderful flavor and the portion was large Delcious summer roll with tasty peanut dip Bahn Mi had tender meat and the bread gave it a nice balance There's bar seating Cons: Parking can be a challenge in their area - shoot to park on the street Service can be slow but it's worth the wait Pro tip: Would be fun to sit at the bar for happy hour and have a bowl of pho read more

Great spot for a casual meal punching above its weight. Great flavors, well executed, generous portions.

Great spot! I'm from a very Vietnamese area and this pho matched some of the best I've had. Definitely more of a western, modern vibe than a traditional Vietnamese pho house but great food with lots of food. Would recommend. read more

Food was great got the brisket and steak phő. Also had wings and spring rolls. Everything was delicious! Servers had an attitude off the bat which was uncalled for and didn't let up till they dropped of the check with a fake happy attitude. Restaurant had a lot of seating inside and a bar in the middle. read more

UPDATE- I cannot express how good Pho Lang is. Excellent food and excellent drinks. We come here often and are never disappointed. Special shout out to their bar tender Robin. Best espresso martinis I've had in Cincinnati, and I've had my fair share at many places high end and normal restaurants. Always great friendly service here. If you haven't been, put this on your list. read more

Overall pretty good experience. I learned that I am not a fan of rare steak so the app was probably not for me but the Pho was delicious and came out ridiculously fast. I ordered the smaller size and the portion was still very generous. Highly recommend experimenting with the sriracha, soy and Hoisin sauce at the table with your pho, added a lot of additional flavor. read more

Pho Lang Thang is a gem in Cincinnati that absolutely deserves the recognition. I had the Bún Ga paired with a Malbec while my girlfriend went with the Bún Chay and a sparkling white wine, and we were both completely satisfied. The food is fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared, and the drinks complemented everything beautifully. We sat outside on a gorgeous day which made the whole experience feel like a little escape, and our server was friendly and attentive without ever making us feel rushed. A must visit.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

Findlay market favorite. Go for the Pho, stay for the spring rolls. Could be more attentive service.

I recently moved to the greater Cincinnati area from Los Angeles, and let me tell you--LA has an amazing Asian food scene. I've been searching for something just as tasty and authentic here, and Pho Lang Thang absolutely delivers! The broth is rich, flavorful, and easily beats some of the pho spots back in LA (which says a lot). I'll definitely be a regular here. So far, nothing in Cincinnati compares! The service is impeccable and the restaurant ambience is beautiful. read more

Service was great. Not a lot of people there when I went for a late lunch (2:30pm ish). The Chao Ga (Chicken Congee) was good. Had a solid flavor but can tell it wasn't bathed in the chicken stock enough. Only gripe was that the chicken was non existent. Having white pepper would've elevated the dish as well. The Pho Dac Biet was packed. Had an abundant amount of protein in there, which is contrary to a lot of "newer" places to cut costs so that was refreshing. The broth, like the Chao Ga, could've used more time cooking in the beef bone broth. I definitely tasted the toasted spices more than I did the flavor from the beef bones traditionally. Honestly, way better than I would've thought for Cincinnati to be frank. The Cafe Sua Da was normal. Nothing special. Not overly sweet or too bitter. They definitely used a different type of bean than most Cafe Sua Da I've had around the US and VN. When you walk in, the decor was very deceiving based on what the pictures of the food looked like. Very hipster decor with some traditional Vietnamese decor as well. I told the bartender/waiter that was serving me, it felt like it had Vietnamese guts and a hipster exterior. read more

Definitely more t the best Ive had in the Cincinnati market. Pho Tia Nam ended up with meatballs in it.

Wouldn't go out of my way to stop here. read more

Great service and a super clean restaurant! My partner tried pho for the first time here, and he couldn't stop raving about it after we left. We started with the chicken wing appetizer -- phenomenal -- crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I ordered the large chicken pho, and the broth had the most delicious, comforting flavor. The Vietnamese drip coffee was strong, rich, and honestly brought me back to life. Our server was so sweet! She was wearing a fun Halloween cat shirt, and we ended up chatting about our upcoming trip to Salem. It made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. I do miss the old location, though -- I used to live in LA and still miss those little hole-in-the-wall pho spots -- but this place definitely fills that void. This is officially my wintertime go-to for hot, steamy pho. read more

I ordered the bún thit nuong (grilled pork cold noodle salad) and added cha gio (fried pork spring roll). Super yummy! My friend ordered the rice plate version of it and an iced Viet coffee which was delicious. We were amongst the only ones there when we arrived, but it got busier as we ate. The store has a nice ambiance and is in a great location near Findlay Market. read more

I really liked this spot. It was near school and definitely fulfilled my pho craving! The inside is very nice and clean and actually has a good amount of space for seating. I ordered the beef pho with two meats. The brisket in my pho was actually very tasty. I will say I wish my pho came out piping hot instead of just lukewarm. I also ordered a Vietnamese iced coffee which wasn't bad but a bit too strong for my liking. The service was great. The staff was kind and never made us feel like we needed to rush out as we sat and talked for a bit in the restaurant even after having finished our meal. I would definitely recommend checking this place out especially with it being in Findlay Market and giving you the option to explore afterwards!! read more

I'll be honest here.. I came here for lunch and had ordered their Pho Tai and I did not like it what so ever. So I am originally from SoCal and there are Pho establishments all over and REALLLLY good ones too. ALSO.. I am Vietnamese so I've had my fair share of Pho growing up. So here was my problem with my bowl of pho. It was incredibly underwhelming.. The portion was big, but the broth was so bland! Where is the flavor?? I could not taste the star anise, cloves, or the fish sauce.. it was just not good. Also the pho noodles were undercooked which is crazy because pho noodles literally takes 10 seconds to cook in boiling water (I know because I make pho all the time) - the noodles were hard when I bit into them. Very disappointing pho experience.. overhyped IMO. Lastly their Vietnamese coffee.. no thanks, it tasted sour to me. It's a cool location and a cool looking establishment.. but I will not be coming back here. No shade - maybe the pho is catered to the demographic.. ? read more

We stopped here during a shopping trip to Findlay Market. It wasn't very busy and the service from our server Ajia was fast and friendly. The Banh Mi ($10) was tasty and on an excellent bun. The Pho Ga (small $13) was more than I could eat. The menu is pretty extensive and features traditional Vietnamese food. They have a full bar. Street parking in this area is tricky to find but a pay lot is available at Findlay Market. I've tried other Vietnamese restaurants and so far, this one is the best. Ambiance is just fair but otherwise 5 stars. read more

long story short: I love this place I have been to Pho Lang Thang many times & I have never been disappointed. They have food for every season- cold noodles in the summer, hot soup in the winter- & their service is always great. The service is always good & the atmosphere is good, although it is sometimes a bit chilly inside. Everything we have tried here has been so tasty. We usually get pho & I have a preference for the chicken over the beef. Recently, we tried bun for the first time & I was blown away! It was so flavorful & so fresh! We love the cha goi as well; they are a delightful appetizer, always so hot & crispy, & I am truly obsessed with nuoc mam. We also enjoy the banh mi, although not as much as the pho or bun. I truly believe anything you order here will be delicious! read more

Happy to find such a delicious Vietnamese spot in Cincinnati! I'm from the West Coast so the bar is high but I thoroughly enjoyed the pork vermicelli bowl. I also had a banh mi which was solid too. I was also delighted to see they had soy milk which is always a treat! read more

Not sure if it was an off day for them as I have dined here before and the experience was very different. We came the Friday before the Labor Day holiday after a flight. The restaurant was very empty but large and clean. The lunch rush may have just ended. We ordered the pho specials and the broth was a little on the salty side. The meat was a little over cooked and chewy. The bean sprouts were steamed which we don't typically expect. The noodles were a little mushy and overcooked. read more

I love Vietnamese food and was super excited when we passed by while exploring around the Findlay Market. We opted to head in for lunch, because my brother was looking for something fresh to eat and as soon as I heard Pho I was in. We walked in and the building is pretty long and deep. There are a good amount of tables and a bar area. We opted to dine in and got a high top table by the bar. Our server was really friendly and made sure we had water right away. We ended up ordering Pho Bo Vien (Pho with meatballs) ($14), Goi Cuon (spring rolls with shrimp and pork) ($7) and Bun-Ga (a fresh rice noodle bowl with chicken) ($16). Going through the menu I noticed the pho varied in price quite a bit based off what ingredients you got in it. It must be harder to source certain ingredients in Cincinnati because their version of a combination pho was $18 where I typically can order it in California for $13-15 depending on the size and location I got to. I also suppose less Cincinnatians are ordering tripe and tendon here. I opted to just go for the meatball pho and it was really tasty. It would have been great to have some sate/sambal on the tables, but the sriracha worked fine. My brother loved his Bun-Ga and we split the spring rolls. They served their spring rolls with shrimp and a thick slice of pork and their peanut sauce was really good. If you're looking for a cute spot to enjoy some Vietnamese food this is a great option. It would also be a great meeting spot or date spot. read more

I'll start by saying I like the food. I work nearby and eat here often. I like the food enough that until today I've been willing to put up with regularly incorrect takeout orders. I almost always order extra jalapenos and I'd say I actually get extra jalapenos at best 25% of the time. Sometimes I order extra and they give me no jalapenos. Once I ordered extra and they gave me a container of rotten jalapenos. Today instead of including extra jalapenos, they included a container of raw meat. I hate to give a negative review as the workers are always polite and attentive and when I get the correct order the food is good, though the quality is not what it used to be 5-10 years ago. WTAF is going on in the kitchen?? read more

Went here with friends on a Sunday for lunch. A heads-up--they get quite crowded around that time. Their Bahn mi with pate is absolutely delicious, and the beef rice plate is fantastic.

This is probably one of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants ever. It was hard to find my first time because Google Maps GPS took me to the backsides which was some gated alley that I was unable to pass through. I'm so glad I persisted (as I was really craving pho that day) and ultimately found this fantastic restaurant. I've ordered several things from the chicken pho to beef pho to banh mis (various types including chicken, pork and tofu) to shrimp spring rolls. Every dish was perfectly made and I really wouldn't change a thing about it. Well, actually, the only thing I would change is that the shaking beef had more beef and less side salad :) wonderful place with authentic quality homemade Vietnamese food! read more

I love this place for the quick service, incredibly kind staff, and delicious vegan options. I always go here after a hard day at work, and leave in a better mood.

Great people work here, I have even been given a free mini drink when they made too much on accident! read more

We came when there was very little people and the service was great, food came out quick and tasted great.

Must try!! Came by while working at the co hatch for lunch. I ordered a couple appetizers like the spring rolls and chao to go, which came out quick and fresh. I also got to try some of the bun and pho which were really great too. Highly recommend! I'd come back to dine in and for happy hour if we were here longer. Next door they have a dessert spot with Vietnamese coffee flavored ice cream! read more

Pho Lang Thang now has a soft serve stand! Located in the old carryout building next door to PLT on Race Street just across from the streetcar stop. Lang Thang Whip serves up four flavors and a few different toppings. They plan to keep vanilla and Vietnamese coffee on all the time and rotate out the other two seasonally. Right now is Thai tea and Kool-Aid mango. I'm super excited for this addition to OTR and Findlay Market, and so are my kids! ;) read more
