Koba cafe

★★★★★ 4.8 (40)

"We drove through the city and this place came up the drinks are amazing here, a bit expensive but worth the fresh fruit prices. All the food is delicious and they worked with all my allergies also. Everyone was very nice! Come on by for great food and people!"

"Surprisingly yummy Chinese! Walnut shrimp, Mongolian trio, & kung pau shrimp all delicious. Heard the eggplant was yummy from a local- will try next time in Ohio!!!!"

Huong Vietnamese Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.2 (411) • $$

"Huong's has been my favorite Vietnamese spot for a very long time. I have been coming here since 2015 and it's been just as amazing every single time. They staff are friendly, the restaurant itself is quint but ideal for just cozying in and enjoying your food. They have a large menu and there is truly something for everyone. It was my husbands first time trying my Vietnamese so we ordered regular spring rolls with shrimp, spring rolls without shrimp, beef pho, tofu bahn mi, and the pork and rice dish. We finished with an iced Vietnamese coffee. Everything was so amazing but truly I think their pho is the best in Columbus. It's full of flavor and depth and perfect for the winter time. I will of course be back hopefully soon"

"food always arrives warm and tasty. The portion sizes are well worth the price, and it's quickly becoming a house favorite to order."

Bamboo Thai Kitchen

"NOTE: Carry-Out ONLY for now. No dine-in.And unfortunately, none of the delivery services seem to deliver for them, so it's literally you doing the carry-out.But the food is delicious - high quality, nice-sized portions, fair prices.The soups were especially good. The Wonton soup was great - just what my sick wife wanted. Big wonton dumplings, good chicken stock - delicious. The Tom Kha Gai (spicy Thai chicken stock + lemongrass soup with coconut milk) was very good. We'll order both again.Spicy Basil Fried Rice was very good. I'll order that again, too.Mango sweet rice with coconut sauce was delicious. That makes it 4 out of 4 for "I'll order that again". Batting 1000.All in all - the place is a little quirky with only being carry-out, no dine in, no delivery. But the food is excellent and it's now probably my favorite Thai restaurant on the Northwest side of Columbus.We'll be back... soon..."

"Fantastic food, service, value!! My nephew had lived in Vietnam for a brief time & had a craving for good authentic Vietnamese food. He loved the food here. The pho in particular as well as the chicken fried rice were "almost as good" as when lived there."

"It's all in the broth... and this broth is by far the best I've ever had. Addictive even. Freshest spring rolls packed with moist noodles and veggies that you can absolutely tell where just made to order. The sauces also very fresh, not stale like most places you can tell have been sitting a while. Yummy iced Vietnamese coffee to finish."

Pho Bar

★★★★☆ 4.3 (35) • $$

"Pho Bar new Vietnamese restaurant in Wooster. Lover of Pho, I had to try it. Ordered their Eye of Round Pho to go. Tasted the broth before assembling the soup. It was very good. They cooked the beef. I prefer it raw and cooking it in the hot broth. I really enjoyed the finished product. The service was excellent. A lot of people were coming in for lunch. This is a much needed Asian restaurant addition to Wooster. I look forward to trying other items soon."

Lan Viet

"Located in the Bridge Park North Market this stand grabbed our attention since it was serving banh mi and pho. We ordered the traditional banh mi and the shrimp pho. They came out quickly and had wonderful flavor. The jalapeños were so fresh and provided a nice spicy kick."

Lotus Pho Grill and Hawaiian BBQ

★★★★☆ 4 (5)

"I saw an article in 614 Magazine featuring Lotus Pho & Hawaiian BBQ and was so excited to see another "taste of home." The photos of the Hawaiian BBQ plates looked promising. We invited some friends and went around 7p. There was one other group ahead of us but I didn't think too much of it impacting our wait time. We ordered a Short rib & chicken combo plate, chicken katsu plate, and 3 for $8.50 spam musubis. We also ordered a melon milk tea (I can never find this flavor!) and a passion fruit tea. Short Rib & Chicken Plate: by far, the best marinade and closest to Hawaiian BBQ that I've had in Columbus. The chicken was really good! Everything was chopped up into small pieces instead of the traditional whole piece of meat (chicken thigh and 3-4 strips of short ribs). The short rib was really good as well. The Mac salad is so good! On the sweeter style like in Hawaii. The melon milk tea was good but overly sweet. I went home and added more milk to it and it was edible. The boba pearls were not cooked enough and tough. My husband really liked the passion fruit tea and my son loved his strawberry tea with strawberry popping bubbles. The chicken katsu plate was not my favorite. The chicken was over cooked and too thin so it was a bit like eating cardboard. The sauce was a more traditional Japanese katsu v. Hawaiian style with ketchup/worcestershire sauce. Overall, it was really good and I'm glad to see more Hawaiian BBQ places around Columbus!"

Pho Thanh

"Honestly so so so good! I skipped pho this time but the grilled pork/egg roll with the fresh veggies and vermicelli noodles was so so good. I picked up my order to go - the inside is small but cute. My order was ready for me when I got there. I also tried their wings - very crispy & and different maybe they were smoked? I can't wait to try the rest of their menu."

"Tofu pho was a great value and very tasty. I ordered it to go and it came with all of the accoutrements. Service was a little brusque."

Pho Chef

"Delicious pho! It was perfect to enjoy on a cold fall day. I ordered the combination pho and an order of the shrimp spring rolls. Service was very efficient. Our food came out quickly. The ambience is casual - great for a chill hang out with friends and family. Will definitely be back!"

Lan Viet

"I visited the Little Grand Market for the first time over the weekend and had such an amazing time. Out of all the options I chose Lan Viet and I'm so glad I did because it was delicious. I ordered online while I was there through the QR code available on the market's website. It took about 15 minutes for my food to be ready and they had it all packed up nicely for me. The only reason why I have it a four star instead of a five was because the tofu was described as fried and while it was, it was very lightly fried and turned mushy rather quickly. As a texture girlie that really got to me. Other than that, the flavors were there and I ate every single bite. I think they'll do really well here and wish them the best of lucky. I have no doubt that I'll visit again!"

Buckeye Pho

★★★★☆ 4.1 (574) • $$

"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."

Bowl Boba

★★★★☆ 4.1 (30)

"Absolutely delicious poké bowls. I recommend the build your own although they have many quick reference options that look to be equally delicious. The Ramen is very solid as well with a solid broth and I think perhaps buckwheat noodles because they were green Ish great toppings and delicious!Be prepared to spend about 20 bucks though."

"The service was amazing with wonderful food recommendations. The rice bowl was so tasty with the shredded pork which had a nice spicy kick. We loved the old fire station environment. Open and welcoming."

Lieu's Asian Cuisine

"I have past thru Lieu's Asian Cuisine for many years, but I was craving Chinese food. I had the Sweet and Sour Chicken and Veggie Egg Roll; it was delicious and yummy. Canned dine in right now due to the Coronavirus pandemic. You can order online to pick up or delivery. I chose to do the pickup option when I ordered online. I will go back to Lieu's Asian Cuisine for my next Asian meal."

"Tasty and great service. The location is right there in the middle of everything in the eastern area. The ambience is relaxing and clean and interesting. There are other things to have here other than pho for those who don't want only yummy Vietnamese soup."

Saigon Asian Bistro

★★★★☆ 4.2 (256) • $$

"Sooooooo good!!! The pho broth was flavorful and the chicken wasn't dry. The chicken general tso was also amazing. It was crispy and the sauce was so yummy. We got fried rice instead of white rice. My only wish was the fried rice was the same as the regular fried rice dish. It was a little bland, but good if you mixed in the chicken. We ended up coming back to this place a week later and ordered pork fried rice, chicken lo mein, and some sort of spicy beef dish. All were super good!!"

Mai Chau Kitchen

★★★★☆ 3.9 (79) • $$

"I have been here before but I must say their food never disappoints!A great menu of Vietnamese fusion with noodles, spring rolls and all kinds of great bun!This place is connected to three tigers brewing. What a perfect combination! The people are always so friendly here and at the brewery! They are owned by the same people. I always feel welcome, always have great beer and food and leave with the intent of coming back every time."

Mi Li Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (321) • $

"Had a craving so we stopped in for some pho and a banh mi -- got my fave large bowl of pho tai (rare steak) and Mr R got a large pho with rare steak and meatballs. As we do, we shared a grilled pork banh mi. Man, everything just tastes so good here! It's hard to not get my favorites because they're that good. I think the banh mi is the best in Columbus.Friendly, quick service again this visit! For me, it's worth the drive. Prices are fair, too. I really could eat 50 of those banh mi!One star off for our table not being especially clean, which is disappointing. Everything needs a good disinfectant wipe down."

Pho Le Vietnamese Cuisine

"I wish I could leave 3.5 stars. My review is split down the middle because half of my items were really solid and the other half weren't.Thai tea- one of the worst Thai teas I've had in columbus restaurants Vietnamese Spring Rolls- the shrimp was super funky/fishy tasting and the pork was NASTY. Peanut sauce was meh. Rare beef pho- I wish I had received more fresh herbs with this, but it was a solid dish. Broth tasted right, beef was tender...no complaints.Charred beef bahn mi- super solid! Baguette had a nice crunch to it. Meat was well seasoned. Had a proper amount of veggies and mayo on it. I would get food from here again, but def avoiding those rolls and Thai tea."
