This was our first visit to Linh's which is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. No problem getting a seat early on a Saturday night. 3 of us started off with different spring rolls, fried, vegetable soft and Shredded pork soft. I had the vegetable tofu hot pot. The other two had the spicy Salted pork dish and the pineapple tofu dish which was a bit sweeter than was expected. She had to use the fish sauce that was on the table to tame the sweetness. The spicy salted pork was lots of fried chunks of pork without any accompanying vegetables. On the other hand my hot pot was perfect. Nice fried pieces of tofu with a variety of vegies over rice. The other two diners liked their food but it perhaps was not exactly as expected. They should have had more communication with the server to understand what they were ordering. The server was pleasant and the wait for dinner was reasonable. We spent $67 for dinner and drinks and tax. There is no alcohol. We paid a "convenience fee" of $1.83 for using a credit card.

Linh's Bistro has a pretty vast menu... and even includes some chinese dishes. If your shooting for Asian, definitely skip Song's next door, and goto Linh's--many more choices and higher quality. It's January, so you can't go wrong with a big bowl of hot soup!!

My wife, son and I went a few days ago. Found no issues with the service or food. It's located near a couple of international stores, so the trip can be doubled up to visit those places as well. I found that they also had Chinese food on their menu. Sometimes when you go to one ethnic place that serves another, it doesn't turn out too well. However, I ordered the General Tso's chicken and it was great. It was lightly breaded and the chicken was moist ( as opposed to heavily breaded and a small piece of chicken inside). I was surprised and delighted. We ordered shrimp and pork rolls and Crab Rangoon as appetizers. They were fine. There were enough pieces of Crab Rangoon, but seemed too cream cheesy to us (we make this at home ourselves). It was ok though and not overcooked. One of us had the Ga Xao Lan - Curry Chicken with Vermicelli. Was good, very heavy on the onions though. Maybe that's how it was made. Another in our party had Pho Bo Tai, a beef noodle soup if I remember right. It was good and in line with what you would expect. Service was fine and the staff was friendly.

I'd like to first state that Linh's used to be one of our favorite places to eat.
Sadly something has changed that my family of 5 will no longer be coming here ever again.
It all began with my order not being even close to what I had in the past, and I called and they said they would fix it when I came back in - Great !
My son and I got the same thing and mine once again tasted like vinegar and my sons tasted like something totally different and was SUPER spicey with orange peels in it, which mine did not have. How does the same orders have that many differences ??
I called in again, and this time they made no effort to change or make it right.
The attitude is why I'm writing this review because we have been loyal customers going on 4-5 years and this is how they treat us ? The beef was stringy and the texture was compared to if you microwaved it..

Mom and I stopped in for dinner. The place was full of people enjoying their meals. Mom ordered a seafood dish with crispy noodles. I ordered a hot pot seafood and vegetables. A burner came out with a pot on top. I got to stir my food and control the flame. It was fun. We heated up mom’s dinner in the same pot when it cooled off. Everything was fresh and delicious. The restaurant doesn’t serve dessert. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We were in nearby Beavercreek on personal business and were looking for something different. This restaurant is located next to Wright Patterson AFB. The area is kind of drab. this restaurant is in an old strip center. It is a large open room. We were immediately, acknowledged at the door and our waitress was attentive. The only negative about the place is not that bad and not their fault. The menu is extensive and the variety makes it hard o decide. If you aren’t familiar with Viet Nam food it is a challenge. We both had spring rolls and they were delicious. I had a meal size soup and my wife had a chicken and vegetable dish. Both were delicious. We will return to try more of what they have to offer.

I go here all the time.. It's my absolute favorite restaurant. I always get the #39 from the lunch menu "Bo Sa Ot" or Beef with Lemongrass. I add the pepper sauce and the hot/sour soup. The service is fast and friendly. Its a great location, right next to the best Air Force Museum in the country.

We have been going to Linhs for a number of years. We have never been disappointed in their food or their service. The staff is always helpful and friendly. We have tried many of their meals and they are always fresh and hit. Highly recommend!

The food is just AWFUL. I was completely dissatisfied from food to service. When I spoke to the manager nothing was done to make it rite. McDonald's would have been a better choice for lunch. The only reason I gave 1 was because there was no option for ZERO.

Small family owned restaurant serving authentic Vietnamese dishes and noodle soup (Pho). Has been in business since 1983. Located in a small shopping center with plenty of parking. Excellant Food. Ate here on two nights while visiting the National Museum of the Air Force.

Went to Lihn's with some friends. Ordered the same dish I've been ordering for the past 2 years. My friends received their meals. I waited, asked about my order no response. Never received my food, no apologies or effort to make it up. Told them I was putting up a review of my experience. A few days later,called in a carryout order and they notified me that I was banned based on me posting a 1 star review. Really bad management, extremely poor service. Pursuing lawsuit based on descrimination, no others banned for 1 star review. I've always been a good, polite customer. The new management is really terrible.

I have been coming here for over 16 years. I have brought in SEVERAL additional customers over the years. As a business owner I understand the dynamics of running a business. What I don’t understand is fixing something that wasn’t BROKEN. Since the takeover from the new owner, the prices have INCREASED and the quality of the food has DECREASED. Where as before, you were lucky to find a spot to stand to pay for your to go order, now you can walk straight in to pay, to see maybe two couples dining ( at best) The food portions have deflated and cheaper smaller products are replacing ( shrimp) the once voluptuous product that once existed. Ohhh and don’t complain, will do no good, he will just advise you of how he is the new owner and this is all for the better. Also as someone whom USE to drive over 24 minutes to patronize this restaurant, to discover it’s closed for “ remodeling “, even though the website sited open. My disappointment speaks for a lot of “The old school “, customers. Unfortunately I don’t see this place being around for another 2 years, let alone 50 more.

They have ruined this place. Totally changed everything. The should rename it so people would know it's not the same. The old owner really built this place up and it's slipping away fast.
