"Strange days have found us Strange days have tracked us down" (The Doors -Strange Days) Talk about your strangely paired odd couple! Want Mexican food? Want Pho? Want them served under the same roof, or maybe smushed together into a singular dish? Well, it's a good thing you've tracked down MexiPHO. You'll find it in the Bertucci's strip mall on Glastonbury's busy Main Street, and it's based on the Subway model. You slide down a counter in an ordering line, and your creation is assembled right in front of your eyes. The menu is heavy on familiar Mexican foods like tacos and nachos and quesadillas and burritos, very light on Vietnamese offerings (just Pho) and tempts you with one super intriguing combination that mashes up the two ethnic genres into one. Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to the boundary breaking Phorito. I couldn't resist that delectable duo of a combination. It's a burrito filled with Mexican ingredients- your choice of meat, rice, refried beans, and pico de gallo. But you can also Pho it up, and add whatever else you want to achieve "Phonessity"- like I did, adding diced jalapenos, rice noodles, bean sprouts and cilantro to the diced beef I selected. I went to their Spicin' Station and like a mad scientist created a mixture of soy sauce, hoisin sauce and super hot Satay pepper sauce. Just a word of advice, be careful with that Satay! This was a helluva flavor explosion and I loved every bite ! My phorito was an incredible combination of hot and cold, soft and crunchy, spicy and savory. It hit just about every checkpoint on the taste scale. Just a few quibbles about the customer service- 1) the cashier didn't know how to read the Groupon ("sorry this has expired") and confused the printed date with the expiration date, and 2) my wife's quesadilla was served without the advertised pico de gallo and sour cream. But I gotta tell you, that Phorito ($8.95) was one of the very best things I ever had in a fast food style restaurant. It was like having the best of both worlds - Asian meets Mexican cuisine. Trust the Mayor, you have to try it. read more

3.5 stars. It's not bad and I mean the burrito. The pho wasn't too great but the burrito's interesting. Does taste like a pho wrapped up in a burrito. Ate outside and put the tables together and came with the dog. So sitting outside was cool. Probably wouldn't come back as a regular though, more novelty than anything else. read more

The food was good and the servers were really nice people. The pho was very tasty! It had an interesting and nice broth. I got the phorrito, and it honestly worked. I wouldn't get it again, but it was interesting to try. It's basically just all the pho ingredients wrapped in a tortilla. And we also got a burrito and they really filled it up with ingredients! read more

Anything Barria from the restaurant is worth the purchase! I usually order the nachos with Barria and a slew of other toppings, the Barria pho hits the spot! We haven't tried dining in yet, but have probably ordered from them 10 times for delivery! read more

It gets the job done. Did Vietnamese style pho the meat was not that great and noodles fell apart while eating. Broth was okay. It is a typical fast food place trying to do something different. It was food read more

Love their pho. Haven't had the Mexican aspect so I cannot comment on this part of this hybrid restaurant. I also have never eaten in the physical restaurant. I have only ordered delivery. The food always arrives warm and delicious and I appreciate the amount of flavor in their soup base. It's quite delicious and fresh. read more

Excellent place. We opted for the burritos so i cannot say much regarding the pho. Surprisingly the Mexican and Vietnamese flavors meld well! Id never thought id enjoy pho noodles in my burrito but here i am! The flavors are so savory. Tons of selections, both Vietnamese and Mexican, for toppings, as well as sauces. Chips are solid as well, and they have other drink selections if you're in the market for glass bottle sodas. Only small criticism is that the price is a tad high for a burrito, but id say its worth the experience. I will absolutely be back. read more

Fusion between Mexican and Vietnamese flavors is an interesting concept. I tried the phorrito. It was burrito with some pho flavors. Mexican flavor and Vietnamese flavors are good separate, but I cannot say that it came together that well. Ground beef torta was also a good one to try. Horchata was a good drink to go for. read more

After find out that that first place we wanted to go was still takeout only and that the second was now a new name we said ok what's around and need up here. Happiest mistake of 2022 this far. My wife had a pork quesadilla with yellow rice red fried beans queso and black olives. My self I said ok we got to try a fusion. I have the beef broth pho with shredded Mexican beef. A little side of hoisin and siracha land this was delicious. This is on the go back to list. read more

Excellent food & friendly service. I had a bowl: yellow rice, black beans, cheese, spinach, corn, sprouts, mushrooms, tomatoes, cilantro, olives, cabbage, and a squeeze of fresh lime. I also get their medium tomatillo salsa on the side and put a little in the bowl as a sauce -so good! I do not get meat, but my husband had carnitas on his bowl. I had a taste-so moist and flavorful! I had the house margarita and chips & salsa (mild). Everything is fresh and super tasty. We love the consistently friendly service we get each visit. They have 2 small tables set up outside on the sidewalk for outdoor dining-we love that option! We enjoy the food so much we have started to make this a regular Saturday night dinner after as a treat to ourselves after yard work. It's our new favorite! read more

MexiPHO - Custom bowl, house margarita, and chips & salsa - Vietnamese Near Me - Glastonbury, Connecticut

My wife and I are GF and have a hard time finding good food while we are away from what is familiar that is also quick and cost effective. Then we came across this little gem in Glastonbury, CT, MexiPHO. It was outstanding! The owner was so helpful and the kitchen was clean. They were very conscientious of Celiac and made clean surfaces, changed gloves and were so good with us. Further the food was outrageous! While we often enjoy corn tortilla tacos, it has been years since we enjoyed a burrito. MexiPHO provided GF tacos, burritos, tostadas and nachos. It's a fun and vibrant atmosphere. They are looking to add locations so swing on in and help them spread this culinary love (LOL) I highly recommend MexiPHO! read more

I was definitely hesitant at first and trying to figure out how you could possibly combine Mexican and Vietnamese food but the moment I walked in I immediate loved this place. It is such a bright and fun place with a lovely mural on the wall. The staff and owner were very friendly. I was confused how it was busy at 3pm on a Saturday but when I had a bite of the food I understood why. I had to try a phorrito because it was something I've never had. It came with the pho rice noodles and then essentially you can fill it up with whatever topping you want. (Careful, some toppings cost extra) With one we did the shredded beef, pinto beans corn, gauc with the hoisin sauce which gave it the nice sweet and salty tang. It was delicious! We also tried a phorrito that was more burrito style just the noodles instead of rice and had the chicken. The flavor of the chicken was so good. All the meats were flavorful and tender. Definitely a bit messy when I tried to split it so might consider a bib next time. The other thing that is a must try is the chips and queso sauce. The queso stayed nice and smooth. I could eat it all day. The salsa also tasted fresh and homemade. I liked that they had some typical fountain drinks, then they surprised me having aguas frescas flavored horchata, limonada, and Jamaica, also love me my jarritos. I would say it's definitely a bit pricey, I was surprised when everything added up but didn't read the menu so I didn't realize the extra charges. Overall this place is delicious and I will definitely be back! read more

They always provide tasty quality food. The menu provides many choices from Mexican to Asian as their name implies. Being able to build your own meal (even the soup) is a terrific feature. Numerous add on veggies and other items to choose from no matter what you order. It is worth driving out of your way to eat here. read more

I stopped by MexiPHO with a few coworkers during lunch and had a wonderful time. The inside is modern with plenty of seating. The menu while simple has plenty of delicious and unique options to explore and try. The service was very fast; think chipotle/subway style serving model. The lines can get long during the lunch rush, but it shouldn't be too bad! They've got plenty of parking spaces too, so if you're trying to grab a quick lunch this is a great option in the Glastonbury area. The food is a mix of Mexican and Vietnamese cuisines. It's definitely interesting to see pho and street tacos on the same menu, but they seem to do a good job at both cuisines. A friend had the phoritto and really enjoyed it. I had the Mexican street tacos (with shrimp) and thought they were great (both in portion and taste). Overall, MexiPHO offers a lot to like. I would definitely recommend checking them out if you're in the area! read more

I was STARVING by the time I got here. It was the first place I saw and I took a chance. Odd combo, but I went with a taco salad bowl in one of those fried tortilla shells. It was very good. I would go back soon, but it's not all that close to me. read more

It's like if Chipotle was authentic. Similar prices, but to be honest, better food. If you like horchata (I don't, but my friend does) I can recommend it. I really like their chicken, carnitas, and al pastor. I haven't had their soup, but their tacos/burritos/bowls are really good. Also the people that work there are really nice! Their to-go service is really easy and fast. The place has some seating, but I normally like just getting my food to-go. But a go-to if I'm craving Mexican food but don't want to sit down! read more

Food and service are always incredible. Great flavors. Super clean. I'm addicted to their street tacos, but their pho is also one of the best in this region. Fabulous! read more

The food was okay. Nothing special nothing great nor bad. Pricey. The sauces and the food bar was kinda messy and it just overall was not appetizing. Probably wouldn't return. read more

Amazing food consistently, great service and a nice place. Authentic cuisine that always tastes 10/10

Holy Heck! Fantastic! Stopped here while visiting the Hartford area and I'm so sad I can't eat this every day! Definitely worth a stop, pho in a burrito is something I never knew I needed, and can highly recommend. read more

Pho in the 'hood is definitely a welcome addition. Ultimately, I am glad we tried out MexiPho, and the concept is great, but I can't say it'll be my go-to for pho. The prices are pretty steep - especially when you compare to other pho places in the Hartford area - and I found the beef broth very, very salty. Also, some of the deliciousness of the beef usually comes from the meat cooking in the broth, but in the set-up here, which is like a Chipotle counter, the meat is already cooked. The space is huge, and the line moves quickly even though a bunch of people working here are still training. There are a decent number of condiments to choose from, including a whole line of Sriracha bottles. I'm definitely curious enough to try their pho-rrito next time, which might be enough for me to change my rating given its novelty. read more

One of the more unique and solid options in the area. The pho is very good and the Mexican spiced meats make this something that is absolutely worth a try if you are a pho and Mexican food fan. The tacos are very good and they do not skimp on toppings. Personal favorites are the pork al pastor and carnitas for the tacos. If you are a spice fan, make sure to have them add Siracha and the fresh jalapeños to the mix. All in all, a solid 5 and worth the price. I'd strongly recommend the place. read more

My husband and I used to drive by this place quite often, but never tempted to go in. I am so glad we finally decided to try it! The flavors are authentic, fresh and lively. They have gluten free options, such as the burrito wraps which are great and they generously full them, BONUS! They offer rice bowls with unlimited toppings and have a quick and easy takeout system if you're not comfortable sitting down inside due to Covid. We usually do sit down for our meals there because the place is very well-kept and clean. The staff is wearing gloves and masks at all times as well. Not to mention, everyone who works at Mexipho is so friendly and kind, every time we go. It never fails! We're here once a week now and always leave happy and full! I highly recommend this place to anyone for a quick bite. It's family also family friendly and appropriate! read more

Sadly disappointed with our first visit to MexiPHO. Maybe it was just me, but I was looking for more of a fusion menu offering. I had been hoping for a pho made with a Mexican broth, maybe a little cumin or even just a little kick. The most unique thing on their menu is a Phorrito, a burrito filled with Mexican and pho ingredients. The menu is very limited. You have a choice of tacos, pho, salad or the Phorritto. The restaurant is set up cafeteria style, similar to Moe's. You place your order and then move down a line, adding items to your meal. I decided on the beef pho with beef broth. My husband had the Pork Pastor Phorrito. We ordered the Street Taco meal for my son. We also got a side of chips with salsa and guacamole. I found the broth to be lacking the richness, that I have come to expect of a pho broth. This broth did not taste like it had been cooked for hours, as it is traditionally done. The beef, while plentiful, was cut a little too thick, and at times tough to chew. The Phorrito was really tempting, but after seeing my husband's, I'm glad I had the pho. The noodles were placed in the center of a tortilla, and the other ingredients were piled up against the noodles. Because of the way the ingredients are rolled up, there were times were he would get mouthfuls of only cold noodles. Not very appetizing. The tacos, two soft and one hard, were decent. We ordered two chicken and one veggie. My son polished off the chicken, but did not care for the veggie combo (zucchini and possibly mushrooms). If you're in a rush, and need a quick fix, this is the place to go. There was nothing here, that makes me want to go back anytime soon. read more

I came here for dinner with some friends after work and we were all interested in trying this combination. Its in a small plaza with plenty of parking which was already a plus and then we learned they had happy hour 3-7pm every day (40% off house margaritas and beer/wine). I tried the pho with carnitas and my friends got the phorrito. I grabbed a bit of theirs and honestly would say the phorrito with steak is the way to go. I liked my pho, but from a price side it was a way better deal to get the phorrito. I'd recommend a visit! read more

Love Mexipho! Can't beat a patron margarita with a Phorito with rice noodles & pork! Hits the spot every time!

Salad Bowl, basically same concept as Chipotle but with actual Mexican rice and more variety of meat. The bowls were delicious and filling! There were sauces to add on the side and complimentary chips and salsa. The horchata water was sweet and delicious and they allow refills (I got Hibiscus water afterwards). The tres leches cake could have been more moist but overall this restaurant is one I'll definitely return to!! read more

Very unique and delicious combination. My friends had a pho-rrito with all pastor and it was yummy. The pho-rrito uses rice noodles which I loved and was surprised how well it worked with the al pastor. I liked how there were multiple options to add on. We had the pho-rrito sauce which I think has hoison in it which gave the nice hit of pho flavor. Will be back to try more food read more

I visited for the first time and was so pleased to find this unique gem. My only complaint is that I wish it was closer to me. The fusion of 2 of my favorite cuisines is chef's kiss. I hope they establish a second location west of the river! read more

I love this place! I discovered Mexipho during the year and am so glad I did. The place is very clean. The offerings are plentiful and the staff is super nice. The food is fantastic! It's so nice to get authentic food to eat and they have so many fresh toppings! The portion size is very good and my wife said the house margarita was good as well. This is no a regular place in our rotation and we've yet to have poor service or a sub par meal. read more
