" Pho Lantern is a must-visit! From their knowledgeable staff to mouthwatering pho, everything has impressed me! I especially loved the spicy seafood pho, which was packed with flavor. The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a gathering. I love how they offer specials; I found out they have a discount on Wednesdays which was a delightful bonus. Can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just an okay experience at Pho Lantern. I had high expectations after hearing about it, but my dish fell flat. The service was okay and the ambiance was nice enough. I’ve had better pho in other places. I might give it another shot in the future, hoping for a better dish. For now, there are other Vietnamese spots I would choose first. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Pho Lantern last week after hearing great things from colleagues, and I wasn't disappointed! The pho was flavorful, and the chunks of beef were tender. The atmosphere was casual but charming. The only downside was that my dish took a little longer to arrive; however, I could see that they were busy. Overall, I would definitely return for the authentic experience and tasty food! " (*Curated Review*)

" An average experience at Pho Lantern. While the pho was decent, it didn't meet my expectations for authentic Vietnamese flavor. The service was helpful, and the ambiance was pleasant. I tried the dumplings and found them to be a bit bland. However, the pricing is friendly, which is a plus. I might consider visiting again, but I hope for a better experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friend and I decided to try Pho Lantern for dinner last night. We started with the refreshing Thai tea, and I must say it was a great choice! The pho combination was just as good as I hoped; full of flavor and well presented. The ambiance is cozy, although it got a bit crowded during peak hours. But the pleasant staff made sure we were well looked after throughout our meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't praise Pho Lantern enough! My husband and I ordered the seafood pho and bun bo hue, and both were divine! The flavors were authentic, and we loved how fresh everything tasted. Our server was exceptional—friendly and attentive without being overbearing. I also appreciated the variety of vegetarian options. This place truly deserves its accolades! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pho Lantern has excellent food but could improve on the speed of service. The pho broth was rich and flavorful, but it took quite a while to arrive. I loved the dumplings, they were a highlight! Overall, it's a quaint little restaurant that's worth a visit for good Vietnamese food. " (*Curated Review*)
