a month agoAs a Viet/Chinese person that moved to Cincinnati, OH from the west coast where there was a large Vietnamese population, I have been deprived of good food. I stumbled upon an Instagram ad and came the same day to order a platter ($20 before tax at time of review) to try a variety of things: -The broth of the beef pho was underwhelming. There was a richness that I didn’t find. I felt like it was missing something (i.e five spice flavors, notes from beef bone, or other warming spices). Although it was clean - I found it to be a bit bland. -The báhn mì was excellent. A generous amount of proteins, texture of the bread had a nice balance, and just the right proportion of vegetables. The flavor profile of the “special” was there and I will definitely be coming back for more! -The 3 colors desert was good. Very nostalgic for me and I encourage everyone to try it. -The fried rolls were good - Nothing that really stood out to me. Overall, this is an amazing spot to eat! I will definitely be back to explore the menu further.

2 months agoLate lunch yesterday. Quick sit down service, nice a/c. Liam deserves a raise for his hard work, he was affable and efficient. The sandwiches and Pho were authentic and ample serving size. Good price/quality relationship. Highly recommend if you are in the area. No reservations needed! Less corporate and more authentic than What da in Beavercreek.

2 months agoExcellent viatnamese meal. Ordered the bun cold noodle dish with chicken and dining partner ordered same with pork. The portions were really nice and all of the vegetables were sliced well and fresh and crisp. The chicken and pork had a good sear and plenty of flavor. The cold rice noodles were nice and light. Very friendly staff and servers. Many other options on the menu I want to try now including the banh mi sandwhich and the pho looked really good too. Nice atmosphere and bar.

2 months agoThis was my first time trying this place, as a friend had recommended it. I really enjoyed the food, the seasoning was delicious and flavorful without being overly salty. I ordered the "special" broken rice dish, which featured an incredibly tasty grilled pork steak—the meat was tender and infused with flavor. It’s definitely worth a visit. The atmosphere is airy and clean, though finding a parking spot can be a bit of a challenge.

4 months agoCame 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.
