First time here. Ordered two bowls of pho and the shrimp fresh rolls.Pho Broth: 10/10, great balance. Top notch.Pho ingredients: 8/10 less meat than other places, but great quality.Shrimp Fresh 0 unfortunately one arrived broken as shown, and they were probably 85% noodles. Also they were small. This could easily be improved by using larger rice sheets and using more lettuce. Wasnt terrible but wasnt great value. Ive seen worse believe it or not.Overall I would eat here again, but I dont think I would go out of my way to do so. They are catering their price to students, which makes sense for their clientele, but it comes at the cost of portions.The biggest positive here was the quality of ingredients. The biggest negative was a lot of noodles, which I attribute to their target market.

Our party of 4 got takeout from IPHO for $64 (before taxes).The food was delicious.I had the N3 Soft Egg Noodle stir fry. It was very similar to Cantonese chow mein, except the noodles at IPHO are soft, instead of the typical crispy noodles in Cantonese chow mein.Another member of my party got the braised beef and carrot stew (with egg noodles). The staff at the restaurant cheerfully accommodated our request to omit the cilantro and bean sprouts.Overall, authentic Asian cuisine at a very reasonable price.Service was fast. Our order was ready 20 minutes after we called in to place the order.5/5 Recommended

Had diarrhea after having their food. I had nothing before that so it must be their food made me sick. It’s my first and last time ordering from them.

Solid, no complaints. Everything tasted really good, and the prices were reasonable.

Too many noodles, not enough meat. Broth could use a bit more flavour. Good service though!

New people working there are so lazy. Ordered a pho and they chopped the onion in quarters.... What am I supposed to do with a big chunk of onion lol. Some people should not be working in the food service.

I previously had the pho which was slightly underwhelming as it did not come with a lot of meat, but I would highly recommend the vermicelli bowl. Very flavourful and large portions, sauce refills are available on request.

I know these sorts of places have 100 dishes... but I only ever just order PHO TAI when I goto a Vietnamese place. Ive eaten Pho Tai a lot. So... as another reviewer pointed out, the broth here has a heavier cinnamon tastes that at first caught me off guard. But unlike the other reviewer, it being a new taste I have to say I didn't mind it and quite frankly had me coming back time and again. It was very good soup and easily above average compared to many other Pho places. The meat was soft and good. My only complaint is that this soup place need to provide spoons with HOOKS on the end so when im dipping my meat in the hoison and sirracha the spoon doesnt fall in. It's important and overlooked in about half of all places. Only real complaint about the place is that it seems to be vacuum sealed LOL because when ever a customer walks in the front door you hear and feel a rush of air, which in winter ices half the tables in the place in 2 seconds.
