Pho Morgan Hill — Restaurant in Morgan Hill

I'm a SJ resident, my attitude towards Vietnamese food is very hostile. I have the tendency to judge everything I eat when I'm pleased with tasty and cheap meals to anything that's unpleasant in my tummy. Sadly, I commute to Morgan Hill for work. Doesn't offer much around this residing city when it comes down to variety of food. However, I found out there's a restaurant that offers Vietnamese food! My heart fluttered when I wanted to give this place a try after a lot of my fellow Vietnamese coworkers tell me that this location is the ONLY place that serves great tasting Vietnamese food around the area. How unfortunate that many people aren't familiar with the different tastes of Asian food around there.

Typically, Pho (soup), Bun (Vermicelli dishes), etc. are always served in a Vietnamese restaurant. However, most places around SJ have restaurants serving food in separation by Bánh cun (rice noodle roll filled with seasoned ground pork, minced wood ear mushroom, and minced shallots), Bánh mì (different kinds of bread more specifically, sandwiches including meat, soy fillings of pork belly, sausage, grilled pork with pork liver pâté, cucumber, etc.), or Bò 7 món (literally "seven courses of beef," a selection of beef Vietnamese dishes), etc. This restaurant however has a little bit of everything!

I've enjoyed their Pho (mainly their combination soup that has brisket, tendons, flank, meatballs, etc.), Bo Luc Lac (shaking beef which is cubed beef with onions and bell peppers) served with steamed white rice and small bowl of soup (clear broth), Banh Mi (grilled chicken sandwich), Bun Bo Hue (spicy soup served with beef, fatty beef, pork blood, etc.), and something new off their menu, Mi Quang (rice noodles served with seasoned pork chop or chicken, quail eggs, shrimp, peanuts, ch (Vietnamese steamed pork sausage), chili pepper, fresh vegetables and pieces of crispy bánh tráng (crispy version of rice paper). All that I've mentioned are some things that I love to order each time I've eaten here!

I'm an avid customer, in which, the owners are always sweet and courteous all the time. Lunch time can be very busy, but don't quickly judge by their service. They talk to their customers especially those who are regulars, like myself, and remember your usual order! I love that about a restaurant, when the owners remember you!! Best part, they don't have MSG in their food, they accept debit and credit cards (most of SJVietnamese restaurants are CASH ONLY), and FREE Wi-Fi unlike any other SJ restaurants that NEVER give their customers FREE Wi-Fi!

Convenient that they're nearby my workplace. Off the beaten road of Monterey Road heading towards Socal, it's tucked away in a small plaza. If you happen to have GPS, it's not hard to find. There's room outside in their patio area if you want to enjoy a nice lunch during a sunny day!

Overall, I have no complaints! I'll keep coming back as long as they continue with their patronage and...

This place has been a traditional stop while working in Gilroy at the garlic festival for our crew. Since the shooting happened I drive up and visit the park on the anniversary. Well, this year I decided to continue the tradition and I stopped and got a sandwich to take to the park with me. Let me just say I live in Sacramento. So unbeknownst to me (until I got home at 9:30pm) I lost $200 cash. I knew that the last time I had it was here at this restaurant. I called them at 10:00am and they had my money. So I drove back and ordered 2 more sandwiches and drove back home. I'm SO THANKFUL for their honesty! Oh and the sandwiches are ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! 😋❤

July 28th 2022.. Same routine. However when I got to the park and opened my sandwich I was disappointed. The bread was not fresh, it was over sauced, the cucumbers were in chunks, the daikon looked like chow mein noodles, and there was lettuce on it. I did call them and let them know. I just hope next year will be better. I will absolutely give it another try. Until...

Wow! I can't believe a place so unassuming in its name would have some of THE best Vietnamese food I've had in the South Bay.

I'm plant-based so I was curious to see how their vegan friendly food would compare to the likes of many vegan Viet restaurants in the area. Baby... they hold their own when it comes to their pho and spring rolls because what I had was absolutely delicious. This place is a must for vegans and vegetarians.

Their Veg Pho was bursting with flavor from its veggie broth, and included delicious firm rice noodles, a medley of fresh vegetables, mushrooms, and tofu. I was shocked at how flavorful the broth was and how filling this bowl ended up being. 10/10 for the pho alone.

I also tried their vegan spring rolls where they use mock shrimp and pork, and wow... not only were they loaded and packed, but the combination of fresh ingredients with the mock meat was definitely some of the best I've ever had.

So freaking good. I am eager to return soon so I can have these again and try more of their plant...
