I can't get enough of this place! I think about it EVERY WEEK! I have a major jones for Cilantro's noodle bowl with shrimp...only I also I add pork fried rolls for more decadent pleasure. The amazing combination of flavors and freshness are tantalizing. I also love their sate soup. It is unquestionably out of this world. The broth is... More

Cilantro hits the spot every time! I love their sate soup! Restaurant is very basic, no frills and well worn but the food is top notch. I do believe they are building a newer place near by.

Cilantro's has the best PHO you can find in the Greater Cincinnati area. I've traveled Vietnam and this hole in the wall across from Hughes High School in Clifton ranks up there with being back in Vietnam. It is a tremendous value. The food is scrumptious. The staff is always so helpful to new customers who have never tried Vietnamese... More

I went to Cilantro last night for dinner. It is just a hole in the wall (in a college town) with great food! I had a soft spring roll with a bowl of Pho. Both were excellent. The prices were very resonable. There are limited places to eat Vietnamese in Cincinnati...but this place serves great food at a great price!!... More

If you like Vietnamese food, Asian food in general, or fusion you will love this place. Highly highly recommend the Sate, I get chicken and shrimp for an extra $2, but SO worth it. The fresh rolls and egg rolls are amazing made from scratch. Just writing this makes me want to go back again, think I will for lunch!
