The P7 was really good and full of a rich beef broth that made the pho come alive. I ate the whole bowl! The sub was delicious and spring rolls were on point. The service was good.

Food was great. Had the charbroiled chicken rolls and the House Special Rice Dish. Don't know why they call it a rice dish when it's a pork chop, egg, shredded pork and other stuff. It was delicious. Portion was plentiful. The house rolls were a lot bigger than I thought they were going to be. Service was good. Nothing spectacular to mention. There really is no ambiance to this restaurant. Weren't a whole lot of people eating there but the amount of to go orders was crazy. Maybe because the lack of ambiance?? Would definitely go again.

Stopped by Pho Thang Café in Cleveland and ordered the House Pho Tai Bo Vien—loaded with rare beef and beef meatballs. The broth was rich and aromatic without being overly salty. Loved the rice noodles and fresh herbs on top, and the plate of sprouts, lime, and basil on the side let me customize it just right. Service was friendly and quick. A great stop if you’re craving a satisfying bowl of pho in Cleveland.

Had the Beef Pho, Garden Roll and Jasmine tea (hot)! It was delicious and fresh. The service was great too but I gave 4 stars because the servers were talking among themselves very loudly right near my table and they didn't come to check up on me even once. I still tipped well because why not give an incentive for people to improve their service. Not sure if the tip is actually given to the servers but hope so.

Had an excellent post-church meal. I intended to have pho, but in the end had the Vermicelli Stir-Fried Shrimp; was not disappointed. The spring rolls were equally good.

Excellent flavors and presentation. Lunch time is busy. Food is fresh and new paper on table is nice for cleanliness.

I ordered spicy chicken and shrimp fried rice without onions, but received chicken, shrimp, pork, and sausage fried rice with onions. The flavor wasn't bad, but i was a little surprised by the portion size (half of an average to-go box) for $18, but that may be normal for the area. The portion sizes for the dine in customers seemed hearty.
