Nguyen family opened The L.A. Squared on Reily Street in 2001, and Midtown Harrisburg has never stopped coming back.
A Neighborhood Kitchen
For over two decades, Midtown Harrisburg has gathered at our tables — state workers, students, families, and regulars who've been coming since day one.
The Rebrand, The Same Soul
The name changed. The signature broth, the beloved dishes, and every familiar face behind the counter? All still here.
One Broth, Built Over Time
Simmered low and slow, our ginger-forward pho broth has anchored every visit since 2001 — aromatic, warming, and entirely your own to customize.
More Than Vietnamese
Korean bibimbap, Taiwanese noodles, Thai fried rice, crispy spring rolls — one kitchen celebrating the full breadth of Asian home cooking.
Whether you're grabbing a bánh mì on a lunch break or settling in for a bowl on a cold evening, The L.A. Squared is the neighborhood restaurant every city deserves — unpretentious, generous, and genuinely glad you're here.
