Buckeye Pho

I simply love Buckeye Pho, they do have great bowl of Pho.It's quick and easygoing. I have been coming here for years. They have some great Pho and freshly made egg rolls.Service is quick and reliable.The place gets very busy on weekend nights. Ambiance is casual

I went for lunch with my two friends to Buckeye Pho. I really wasn't that hungry, but they were. I got two spring rolls with pork and shrimp. We also got fried egg rolls to share.Buckeye Pho is a small Vietnamese restaurant. The waiter was very fast and efficient at serving the whole dining room.Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed in my spring rolls. The rice paper was very stretchy like rubber. I understand it should be stretchy to hold everything, but it was difficult to bite into. Also the peanut sauce was very, very watered down, I couldn't taste any of the peanut. These are typically my favorite thing to get at a Vietnamese restaurant, but these were unfortunately a let down.The fried spring rolls were better because the duck sauce was more flavorful, the egg rolls them selves were very bland.I wouldn't recommend getting egg rolls from Buckeye Pho.

I had only have pho a few times before moving to Ohio and was introduced to it by my Indian friends who had Asian friends from New York...so that part. But coming here, my friend likes pho and I like dim sum so we switch with trying new spots every once and awhile. This is a well known OSU student spot and I see why. Besides being ultra friendly, the prices are reasonable and we were able to get Salt & Pepper calamari, Tofu Sub Veggie Pho, and Vermice with Tofu for me all under $50 dollars! The fact that we only eat seafood mainly made me cautious with trying new spots, but they were accommodating with the menu items. The ambiance reads like an in and out spot with typical student fare so nothing special but it is doable. Will return again when in a pinch for the pho jones.

Had to stop in to Buckeye Pho for lunch. Exceptional food. Went with a nice hot bowl of won ton mein (with egg noodles) and a pair of shrimp and pork fresh rolls. Love the dipping sauce for the rolls. The won tons are full of flavor and they don't cheat on the filling. Fresh veggies, char siu pork, plenty of won tons and a tasty broth. The fresh rolls are wonderful and they can be a meal in itself.Service is always great and I love coming back for sit-down or take out.

Oh my. This pho was tasty! I got a shrimp and pork summer roll for an appetizer and then a large combo pho. We came in on a Sunday for brunch with friends from Cincy. Def recommend calling in for a reso. We did wait about 10-15 mins for a table. Either way, staff was friendly and service was quick! Def recommend if you're in the area.

This is our go to pho place. Food is always good, this time I decided to change it up and try the seafood noodle soup with egg noodles. Would def get again. It has scallops, squid, shrimp, and imitation crab

I grabbed a quick lunch here while on a road trip. The Pho was surprisingly good! The broth had a great balance of beefy and herbal flavors. I was in and out in no time, which was perfect for a quick bite.

I'd eaten in this restaurant several other times and had a better experience than this was with carry-out. My husband ordered the Shrimp and Pork Summer Roll which didn't have much taste but the peanut sauce was good. He also ordered the Beef Stew with Rice Noodle. It did have a good flavor but it was watery and I'd call it a soup, not a stew. It didn't look like the photo at all, even when he added the noodles and sprouts. Also, a lot of the beef was just hunks of fat, not meat. One surprise was that it arrived lukewarm. Luckily we were home so we could re-heat it. My grilled pork with vermicelli was good and as I expected. The minced chicken lettuce wraps were very good - no surprises. It was ready on time and the service was efficient and polite.

Overall a great choice. The menu is slightly more expanded than you would typically find, and for being in a low-viet populated state, this impressed us. The food was decent and so was the decor. Our server was a witty fellow, and we enjoyed his service. I gave 4/5 stars because the bun thit nuong felt like they ran out of the typical grilled meat so they gave me marinated pork belly sliced meat instead...which was good but it certainly wasn't the same and was not grilled.

Everyone talks about Buckeye Pho as some of the best in town. I came with my sister on a Friday evening close to 7 and it wasn't busy until closer to 7:30/8! They food comes out fast and they try to get you in and out.There are a good number of tables but once it's full, ya gotta wait for a table.My sister had been here pre-COVID and told me she got to sit at the bar. It looks like the bar doesn't do seating anymore.We got the minced pork spring rolls. They came pretty fresh and hot! Delicious.I got a large rare steak pho with fried dough on the side. Yum! The broth is the star of the show. Really hot as well! Everything must've been on the stove already.My sister tried the grilled pork banh mi and that it was alright.I will add that the portion sizes are generous. The large size for pho lasted me 3 meals! Lots of noodles! And the prices are good too. I'm used to paying a lot more for pho.Staff was really nice! They try to be quick. They also package up your leftovers for you which was nice.As a note, they don't take American Express! I've had that same issue at another Vietnamese restaurant. Thankfully, I had another credit card with me.Parking isn't too bad until it gets full. The hot pot place is next door. But there's tons of parking nearby even if you don't park right in front of it.Overall, I'd come back and order for lunch!
