Delicious! I love the chicken pho and pork spring rolls. The service is great and super quick. The servers are very sweet. The only thing I would not recommend is the calamari.

Buckeye Pho is the kind of place where the aroma of simmering broth hits you before the front door even swings open—and trust me, it’s a good kind of punch. Nestled along Bethel, this neighborhood spot delivers no-frills comfort with the kind of pho broth that feels like a warm hug in a bowl.

The pho dac biet steals the show: a symphony of delicate rice noodles, unerringly tender brisket, fatty tripe, silky tendon, and just-wilted leafy greens—all swimming in a caramel-toned broth layered with star anise and fresh-spun complexity. A squeeze of lime, a wedge of jalapeño, and a dash of hoisin transform the bowl into a personalized flavor orchestra for your palate.

If those notes aren’t getting you excited, let me put it simply—this is the pho you think about two days later, in the best possible way.

Complementing the star-studded noodle soup, their spring rolls arrive crisp and clean: tender, fresh shrimp on a snappy rice wrapper, with a dipping sauce that balances a nutty sweetness and sharp tang.

Service here walks that wonderful line between “you’re the only customer we see” and “we’re chill but we care,” which feels just right for the kind of place that wants you to take your time, slurp your soup, and soak up the cozy ambiance.

Final Take: Buckeye Pho is your go-to for a bowl of pho that knows what it’s doing—and does it consistently well. My advice? Go during the week, park curbside, and let that broth work its magic.

My old go-to Vietnamese when I lived close to the OSU campus. Haven’t been here for awhile, but the Pho is still great! Ordered the signature Pho (combo beef) and the vegan Pho. Both very good. Plenty of beef, veggies, and noodles. Both broths were very flavorful. Reasonable prices. Quick and friendly service.

My friends and I decided to come here to try out their food as they receive really high reviews on their pho. When we initially walked in we did receive some weird glances however we payed it no mind. We were sat down, at a table and immediately the menus were thrown down onto the table and the man was very pushy on getting our order in and it seemed that he was more concerned with going to the back to talk with his counterparts. This was our first time here and as a result we did have a number of questions which he seemingly was unhappy to answer. In terms of food, the food was just OK as everything seems to be a little watered down. One thing that he did say which stuck out to us was the served asking if we needed forks, seemingly assuming that we did not know how to use chopsticks which we do. My biggest complaint is the service we received towards the end of our visit; as the server would not provide us with any insight on how to pack our pho to go. My friend very politely asked two times what was the best way to do it and he walked away and said I don’t know with his back to her. Upon our departure from the restaurant, we asked for bags and the server rudely threw the bag over-the-counter and then turned away.

The food was great, unfortunately the customer service was severely lacking. They were racist and prejudice towards black people

Got the Beef Stew with Egg Noodles and it was tasty and filling. The shrimp and pork summer rolls were good too. Will definitely be back to try some of the other dishes.
