“ Great restaurant and great in a pinch. I came here with a friend because Saigon was closed (that's our go to) and it ended up being a great alternative. The service is very fast! Our food came out less than 10 min after ordering. I got the chicken pho and it was pretty good, nothing incredible. The noodles were a bit softer than I normally like and the chicken was a little hard to chew. The broth had a little bit of sweetness and some warm spices. I would come back if Saigon were closed again ”
“ Troph passed this place remaining years and decided to give it a try, and I was not disappointed! We got the Pho Ga, and Bun Bo Huey , in both was delicious! The pho ga broth was deep and flavorful! The Bun Bo Hue broth was just the right amount of spice! The meets in both were also plenty and flavorful! This place is a few dollars more pricey than your average pho restaurant, but worth the money! ”
“ It's very difficult to find local Vietnamese places that serve vegetarian-friendly broths, noodles, etc. so I was ecstatic when I saw Pho Place had options! The noodles & broth were so comforting and flavorful- their chili oil really made it. The restaurant itself is on the smaller and more casual side but it was perfect for a little catch up dinner with a friend. The whole staff was very kind and clearly puts lots of a care into the clientele. Will definitely be back to try more dishes!! ”
“ IM CRAZY PHO YOU! Now that the weather is just beginning to cool down, soup and pho season is upon us. After some shopping across 280 with a friend this past week, we were looking up potential spots for dinner. When we came across Pho Place we said why not... neither of us have ever had pho before and were wanting to try something new. We are both big fans of Asian food across the board and pho was one thing that we hadn't tried and always wanted to. Like they say.. when the opportunity presents itself... The interior of the restaurant was beautiful. Tons of tables and places to sit. We were sat quickly upon arrival. Though, the servers were a little blah overall. Zero personality. I ordered the crispy noodle dish with chicken and vegetables on top. While my friend ordered the spicy pork pho. Both of our dishes were very flavorful. But we did not like that our sodas were $3.75 a piece. I know places need to make money, but I felt like that was a bit much for just a soda... Overall, it's a great spot to meet and have lunch or dinner with friends. Seems bougie inside, but it's not with the prices. Definitely a hopping spot especially as the weather continues to get cooler. ”
“ When I tell you the Pho here is delicious, believe me when I say it! It's a no frills place but they have really good pho. The service is quick and they will explain anything to you that you need to know. They will even work with you to create if it's not exactly on the menu. I asked the waiter if they had any fish sauce...he said sure and brought it right out to me! This is a sign of great Pho !! If they have fish sauce in the building you are in the right place!!! ”
“ We are loyalist of the Vietnamese place across the street, but decided to try Pho Place for lunch on a Sunday to see what we are missing. The service is decidedly unfriendly, but it is efficient. The interior is minimalist, clean, and warmly lit. Not a date night spot by any stretch! Prices are higher than average but the food was very good. Kids pho (KM1) comes without greenery which my child loved. The broth was extremely flavorful, complex, and deep. The B3 charbroiled pork noodle bowl was exceptionally fresh, sweeter than average, lacking fresh herbs, heavy on the peanuts (yum!), and very satisfying. Pork was not as flavorful as competitor but it was a juicy, sliced chop as opposed to shaved meat. B5 curry chicken noodle bowl was equally fresh, but also lacked herbs and didn't have much curry flavor. All-in-all it beat its neighbor in freshness and complexity of flavor, but fell behind in service, price, and some elements/ingredients. ”
“ Embarking on a culinary adventure at Pho Place for lunch, I set my sights on the banh mi sandwich. Little did I know, I was about to experience a flavor sensation that would leave my taste buds singing praises. The bread, toasted to perfection, cradled tender pork and a plethora of vibrant veggies, creating a complex journey of textures and tastes that danced harmoniously on my palate. It was a banh mi masterpiece, rivaling even the most renowned in town. Amidst the cozy and pristine ambiance, the attentive and amiable staff catered to my every need, ensuring a dining experience that was not only satisfying but also delightful. In conclusion, this pho place has captured my culinary heart with its impeccable banh mi and impeccable service. With prices that won't break the bank, I eagerly anticipate my return to bask in the flavors of Vietnamese cuisine once more. Five stars? Without a doubt. ”
“ I decided to have lunch with Pho Place for something warm and delicious. I arrived at opening and was surprised how well the atmosphere is. They have done a great with decor as accompany it with wonderful service too! I started with the egg roll appetizer which was great. I ordered a pho with beef which it was good but not sure is my fave. I will be returning to try other dishes as well. ”
“ Pho Place is a small but pleasant restaurant in a shopping plaza in Inverness, Alabama. My server was extremely friendly and professional and gave me a few suggestions. I opted to go with the pho (you can never go wrong with pho). I found the pho to be very good. The broth was good, the vegetables were fresh, the noodles tasty and the meat was very good. The pricing was good and my overall experience was incredibly positive. Since it is in a shopping plaza, parking was not an issue. Pho Place is a great Vietnamese restaurant and one that I would definitely recommend. I will give Pho Place five stars overall. ”
