    The pho was average at best. I'm not sure why they sprinkled pepper in it. It was a good sized portion though. I didn't trust the condiments because the table number was dirty.

    Pho with shrimp
    Camille B.

    My favorite food place was closed today so in hopes of satisfying my craving I tried this place. I've had another dish by them before and absolutely loved it.. The staff is nice, I usually get a shrimp for at my other place so that's what I got here they definitely give you good size shrimp and the broth with super hot . I gave it three stars because I feel like the broth is what makes the dish and I didn't really like the broth They decided to give me for my pho. I feel like I've had pho here before and thought it was good so maybe there are different broths and I need to specify which one. It was weird, having kind of a beefy tasting broth with shrimp . I'm kind of sad because it didn't really fix my cravings and on top of that you have to pay for parking so I spent more than I normally would have at my other place

    Grabbed a quick lunch after a volleyball tournament before driving home. Place was in a convenient location with 2 entrances...one on each side of the building. If you enter from the side the GPS takes you for the address, you have to walk to the back of the building and all the way down a hallway to find it. Service was fast and friendly. The Pho was very good. I'd order that every time. The fried noodles were good, but I'd definitely stick with the pho. Also ordered the spring rolls. They were also good. Crispy. Not greasy. Stuffed full of ingredients, and the dipping sauce was awesome. We'll definitely visit again.

    Awesome hole in the wall! Loved the food and service. Glad to have found this place! We'll definitely come back. I love that they offer cold noodle dishes, it's so refreshing on a hot summer day

    Grilled Pork Chop Rice Plate
    Samantha B.

    I'm sorry to say this, but this place has gone downhill I've been ordering carry out and dining in since this place opened, it's across the street from my office and it was amazing Recently, I ordered the grilled pork and rice plate expecting a decent sized pork chop especially for the $15 price and all I got were 2 slivers of pork and the flavor was off Crispy rolls were drenched in oil almost soggy Not sure if I'll be back again

    Dirty table side condiments
    Robbie M.

    Decided to dine here due to its proximity to the Hampton Inn, the spring rolls weren't fresh as the rice paper was dried out, and the sauces were watery with little flavor. Ordering meals from their menu was challenging because you had to flip through the menu to match meal numbers with plate numbers. Our meals, two noodle dishes and one Pho dish, lacked flavor and were bland. We didn't try the sauces provided, as they appeared dirty. Service was just as bad waitress asked for the order then had to go back and get paper to write it all down (again menu was confusing) no water refills were offered. Ambiance was just as bad.

    Green tea boba tea

    We were in the mood to try something Asian with vegetarian options and this restaurant has a menu section for vegetarians, so we came here. First, you guys need a bigger entrance door!! The small entrance is so easy to miss or to mistake for an employee or back entrance. The restaurant is actually very spacious inside, but you'd hardly figure that out from the outside. Our hotel is close by so we walked. If you need parking, there are parking structures around. They seemed to be short-staffed as the chefs were also helping out with serving at times and it was hard to flag down our specific server, who seemed to be among 3 servers managing about 15 full tables and a bar. We ordered the veggie garden spring rolls, the veggie banh mi, the bun xao ga (rice vermicelli with chicken), the goi ga (chicken and cabbage salad), the mi goi xao dac biet (house special ramen egg noodles with shrimp, chicken and pork) and the honeydew and green tea boba teas. Everything was pretty mild with regards to spice level. My parents enjoyed the garden rolls and the veggie banh mi. Just a FYI: the veggie ham tastes nothing like real ham, but the sandwich itself was a banh mi. It is a pretty small size so one person can definitely eat the whole thing. The bun xao ga was nice but not exactly the spicy dish I was promised. The chicken in it was a little chewy. I asked for their homemade chili oil and had to douse my dish in about 30% of the contents to get the spice I was looking for. I didn't get it fully but it definitely tasted a little spicier. This is a great dish if you want mild flavors. My brother inhaled the goi ga. He liked it and appreciated that there were lots of veggies to balance the chicken. His ramen was also very good with the exception of spice. He doused his ramen in siracha sauce to get the kick he wanted. I loved the boba teas. The boba was soft and easily melted in the mouth when you bit into it. The honeydew was quite sweet and the green tea had a bit of an earthy taste, which was exactly what we were going for. Price wise, we paid about $80 for the whole meal, which I think is quite reasonable for downtown Cleveland. All in all, this was a good experience but I'd really like them to kick the spice level up when we ask for it....and that entrance....please figure out a way to get a more visible entrance!

    Spring roll. Is this Vietnamese style???
    Maryjane S.

    It was different than last visit. Soup was so dark, spring roll was not the same..... somehow there is no Vietnamese there.. Indian ladies were serving food. Time ro fund a new location for me.

    Vietnamese restaurant attached to Hampton Inn, the entrance is around the corner of the hotel. GPS might route you to the main entrance and you'll see a sign but you'll have to walk towards the hotel entrance. Although it's ground floor, the inside feels like a basement and the decor is basic and outdated. The service was good, everyone was friendly and quick. The food was good, we all got pho and some spring rolls. Spring rolls were nice and crispy and well stuffed. The noodles were basic and didn't have different sized bowls, but instead you can add noodles. Broth was ok. I would give service a 4, ambiance a 2, and food a 3.5.

    Pork & egg roll vermicelli add fried egg
    Lydia F.

    I had a little hard time finding it because the door is small with limited signage (or I could have come in through the wrong door). The door opens into a gigantic space with circle bar seating in the middle and plenty of tables. I loved the sparkly orange counter of the bar. Service was fast and my water was always kept full. I ordered the pork & egg roll vermicelli bowl and added a fried egg. It was perfect. The ingredients were fresh, crisp, and perfectly cooked. The egg yolk was even like a jammy velvet. I'd come here every week if I lived here. The best part--homemade chilli oil!!!! It was so good. I kept spooning more on because the flavor was so delicious, but I finally had to put the lid back on before my nose started running uncontrollably. Perfection.

    Veggie fried rice - delicious
    Rodney W.

    Working downtown again. Visited Pho Thang with a coworker for lunch because I recall the food being good. We were promptly greeted and seated. On this visit, I requested one of my favorites - vegetable fried rice along with some fresh garden rolls. A short time passed and our meals were delivered. They were hot and looked amazing. The fresh garden rolls were tasty. They were sticky and yummy, but they did not have any shrimp in them. Next time, I'll order the shrimp variety. The peanut sauce didn't have a bold flavor. My veggie fried rice was amazing. Loved it! The only issue I have is no refills were provided. In fact, I don't think I've ever received a refill here, which means I need to make sure I get the server's attention on future visits. Great food!

    On the left is the Pho Tai Nam, above is the spring rolls and right shrimp fried rice.
    Juan M.

    The service was 3 out of 5, it wasn't bad, but it could be better. The food was really good!!! The spring rolls were delicious. The shrimp fried rice was my second favorite! Then the Pho was fine. The broth itself is very good and the noodles. However, the beef isn't of a great quality. One thing I did noticed was that my silverware was dirty so I had them change it. But overall the food is really good.

    Summer Roll
    Brian R.

    The pho here is not pho-nominal. The dining room is a health inspector's classroom in obvious filth, run by a few early twenty somethings who are polite but could give two cents about service. Sitting next to the Federal Reserve, with 30 empty tables, maybe they're building a tunnel, or something. Surely it can't be the food. Broth is fresh. Veggies too. Noodles are overcooked and gooey. Shrimp is questionable. Everything lacks flavor. More Cantonese than Vietnamese. The dead bugs on the windowsill suggest a lack of care for cleanliness. Service is sparse but polite. Not quite at Restaurant Impossible, but clearly on its way there. Robert Irvine look out!

She joined us a couple days prior to her wedding to romp around Cleveland and our group of 5 checked out Superior Pho. Delightful. Prompt and friendly service--our server mistakenly put in a 4th bun bo hue soup when we'd only ordered 3, but we brought it to our AirBnB--and excellent food. We ordered 2 bonus bahn mis, per our freind's recommendation, to share table-wide too. Great food. The Bun Bo Hue is mildly spicy for my fellow medium spice tolerant folks. Everything was awesome.

I like the table set up with the siracha, hoisin, and utensils all right there like the pho spots I'm use to. I got their goi cuon, pho dac viet, and a boba. Goi cuon came out pretty fast. Nicely wrapped and came with a peanut dipping sauce. The roll was good, I would've liked the peanut sauce to have been a bit more peanuty, and thicker. Sauce was a bit on the runnier side. My personal preference. Pho dac biet soup seems to be the same for all the pho spots in Cleveland that I've tried. It'll satisfy my craving but doesn't seem to be rich. The meat portions were generous for a small. Got their premium oolong milk tea. Didn't taste premium to me. I like you can adjust the sweetness level and ice level. Wish they had just plain regular boba/tapioca balls. Only had them in brown Suger syrup. Definitely enjoyed this spot more than some of the other pho spots. Will come back to try their other dishes too.
