Voted for Pho Marina
Pho Marina, a "Gem" in The South Bay
Today's review is for the Pho Marina, located at 4116 Monterey Road, San Jose, CA 95111, just south of the East Capitol Expressway. My wife and I are frequent visitors to this Vietnamese style noodle house located in a strip mall off Monterey Road, for a number of reasons, viz. affordability, daily freshly prepared barbecue, cooked specialty menu items, ambience, party trays, excellent service, and location.
The restaurant is located at the east end of the strip mall, easily accessible from either Monterey Road or Senter Road. For anyone on a budget, this restaurant offers affordable, always fresh Vietnamese food (and soup noodles, i.e. "Pho"), along with barbecue items such as roast pig, traditional Chinese style roast duck, and soy sauce chicken. These delicasies are all hanging in the display window inside of the restaurant, adjacent to the cash register, very reminiscent of places I used to frequent as a youth, with my family, in the Chinatown section of Washington, D.C. The place is never very busy and seating is always assured, with a mix of local Vietnamese and Hispanic families, and they also do "take out" orders, off of a quite diverse menu.
I highly recommend Pho Marina to anyone who appreciates a great value, for prices of yester year.
