SJ Eggrolls in East San Jose is offering up some delightful bites. These would be perfect for a…read morelunch or a large gathering as they offer catering size trays. I highly recommend order online in advance as the wait can be about 30-40 minutes. Upon arriving, the inside was packed with people waiting for their orders. I ordered the 6 eggrolls and asked for 3 regular eggrolls and 3 netted eggrolls so that I could try both. The eggrolls come with veggies (lettuce, mint, and cilantro). It also came with pickled veggies and fish sauce. I also ordered 4 of their nem nuong as not every Vietnamese spot offers this type of spring roll. These have grilled pork in them rather than pork and shrimp. It comes with its own sauce which I'm not sure what its made of. The nem nuong were delicious with the grilled pork and there is a crispy component inside, too. They taste fresh and the sauce is tangy. I like the addition of the small chili sauce they give you on the side. The real show stoppers have to be the eggrolls though. They are perfectly crispy and filled with delicious pork filling. The veggies they provide are really fresh and the pickled veggies helps to add more depth. The eggrolls themselves don't feel too heavy or oily either which I really appreciated. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly when I was picking up. Overall, I would definitely recommend this spot and can imagine how their party trays must be a big hit!

The pork and shrimp net egg rolls were perfectly crispy and packed with flavor, and the bánh khọt egg rolls were just as amazing. I loved wrapping everything in the fresh greens they provided, dipping each bite into the fish sauce, and adding a little sriracha for extra kick. Yes, the fish sauce smell lingers on your hands, but it's completely worth it because the flavors are incredible. There's plenty of parking since it's located in a strip mall, which made it easy and convenient to visit. If you love crispy-style egg rolls, I highly recommend this spot. I'll definitely be stopping by every time I'm in the area.

Ordered the seafood platter so we can sample everything. Ordered the papaya salad, shrimp, and fried chicken cartilage on the side. On the whole, the seafood is decent b out would prob ordered separate dishes next time since we are not a fan of the blood clams. It might be an acquired taste. Manila clams are good but some folks of my dining party find it to have a bit of sand. The oysters has a cheese topping to it that may be too much for ppl. So yeah the big seafood platter with everything might be more of a 6.5/10 experience. May order individual pieces next time.

Banh cuon dac biet offered as variety of rice rolls with the same sides as the other combo plates. Egg rolls appetizers were good, they were fried well and very crispy.

I quite liked this spot, which is a quintessentially Vietnamese restaurant located in a large…read moreplaza. Both the parking lot and the restaurant were pretty crowded during dinner hours. If you can't find parking in that plaza, there's more parking across the road where the Target is. After spending about ten minutes on the written wait-list, our names were called. It's definitely a little easier communicating with much of the staff if you speak Vietnamese, and I find that waiting right outside the restaurant is best because they default to calling your name from the door once it's your turn. The interior is crammed with tables; the atmosphere feels busy and warm. There is a single room women's bathroom and men's bathroom in the back as well. The decor leans toward being classic more than trendy, which I liked. The menu is pretty big, offering a variety of items ranging from mainstream Vietnamese options to ones I don't encounter as often. I recommend eating family-style for many of these dishes, including the Bún Chả Cá Lã Vọng, which I enjoyed with my partner. The prices are pretty average, and their portions are generous. That said, they are cash or Zelle only. There is an ATM that you can use if you forget to bring cash, but this is still something to keep in mind. Overall, I can definitely see myself coming back. I wish I had the stomach capacity to try more of their dishes at once, and I 100% recommend that anyone give this place a shot.

This is an update to my long-time visits to Huế on Silver Creek. I've always loved their bánh xèo,…read moreand today was another memorable meal. Food (4.5 stars) + Their bánh xèo remains a standout. The crepe is crispy, generously filled with pork, shrimp, and bean sprouts. The piping-hot freshness made every bite burst with flavor when wrapped in lettuce, Vietnamese herbs and dipped in their sweet fish sauce. It's like having an amazing Asian crepe salad (5 stars) - Slight nitpick: They serve fewer veggies compared to other spots nearby, but it's still a solid dish. You simply can ask for extra lettuce I think. Service/Ambiance (4 stars) + We were seated immediately even during a busy lunch hour. + Restaurant is always clean and dishes have nice presentation. ~ The service was polite, and they did replace a plate of lettuce promptly when we discovered a small bug. I understand these things happen, but more attention could help avoid that. Also, staff could be a bit more aware when we try to flag them down. Overall, I'm still a fan. Huế's bánh xèo keeps me coming back, and I'll happily round this visit up to 5 stars.

I usually order their Bun Bo Hue in a large size so I can enjoy some at the restaurant and still have leftovers to take home later. Service is always quick--you get seated right away, and someone usually takes your order within a minute or two. The food comes out fast, hot, and fresh every time. No matter what time of day I visit, there are always people eating here, which speaks for itself. The broth is incredibly flavorful while still being light and aromatic. Combined with the variety of toppings and fresh vegetables, it's hard not to dig in the moment it hits the table (as you can probably tell from the photo, lol). The restaurant has plenty of seating, making it a great place to bring family and friends. When you're finished eating, you simply walk up to the counter, tell them your table number, and pay. Just keep in mind that they only accept cash or debit cards. If you're looking for a comforting bowl of Bun Bo Hue, especially on a rough morning after a night out, this is definitely the place to go. I will always come back here.

I was pleasantly surprised with the pho ap chao, it was really tasty and crispy and a dish I have not tried before. We really enjoyed everything but the Bo luc lac (shaken beef) was super tender and the beef was flavorful! This is a must try in my opinion! This restaurant is clean and tidy and has cute decors of bamboo hats hung from the ceiling and remind me of being back in Vietnam again. Staffs were attentive as customers entered. Plenty of parking spaces in the plaza. I will definitely come back here for everything I tried during my visit and to try more when in the area or on the way back from Santa Cruz. This will also be a great place to grab Togo for picnics or for hiking as well! My kids are already asking to come back to the restaurant after our first time there.
