Editor’s picks
Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in 614NOW. Updated July 2026.
Lan Việt Restaurant · Downtown
Lan Viet brings Vietnamese cooking to North Market, making a full rice or noodle meal available within the downtown hall. The counter format suits lunch and mixed groups while preserving a menu distinct from neighboring vendors. Its market setting adds movement and variety without diluting the stall's Vietnamese identity.
6-1-Pho · Clintonville
6-1-Pho gives Clintonville a dedicated Vietnamese menu with aromatic broth and noodles at the center. Herbs, garnishes, and the steady ritual of assembling each bowl keep the experience focused even in a quick counter-service format. The North High Street storefront makes pho an accessible part of the neighborhood routine.
Huong Vietnamese Restaurant · Northland
Huong is a family-owned Vietnamese restaurant with a broad traditional menu on Morse Road. Pho, grilled meats, and banh mi allow a table to explore several familiar forms, including a grilled-pork sandwich layered with fresh herbs and vegetables. The modest Northland room keeps attention on direct, home-style flavors.
Mi Li Cafe · Northeast Columbus
Mi Li Cafe serves Vietnamese comfort food from a modest Northeast Columbus dining room in Emporium Square. Pho and noodle dishes share the menu with grilled preparations, creating enough range for lunch or dinner. Its neighborhood setting brings Vietnamese cooking to a part of the city beyond the central districts.
Pho Chef · Northwest Columbus
Pho Chef adds a Vietnamese noodle specialist to Kenny Centre with pho as the clearest point of entry. Broth, noodles, herbs, and garnishes build flavor gradually through the bowl rather than through elaborate presentation. Its place among several neighboring Asian restaurants makes the shopping center a particularly rich dining cluster.
