    Poke nachos
    Quyen H.

    Great food! I think this is the first of few food trucks where I said "the food is delicious and great price!" I have Fire and Rice on my to try list for awhile so very happy we got to try it. The food was really good. I got the poke nachos and it's made with the wonton chips. Super crispy but well balanced with the poke and dressing. The service is good as well and they are super friendly people. Will definitely be back for more food here!

    Tuna BOMB and musubi
    Nathaniel K.

    TLDR: REALLY Awesome Musubi! Great Tuna Bombs too! Came to Morgan Hill for their first annual Open Streets!, the second week of May. Actually came to support my sis who had a booth there. Well, I was hungry, and while we were walking around, we came to this lunch truck. I'll be honest... we came to try it because of the name. LOVE the pun! I love a good food truck pun! It was around lunch time, but we had a big brunch already, so we wanted something light. So we ordered 2 Musubis for $9 ($1 off) and the Tuna Bomb, because my wife thought it sounded interesting. First, the Tuna bomb... it's Tuna poke with some rice, inside the shell of that Japanese Tofu. Kinda like a taco. Got some drizzle on top as well. It was a bit messy to eat with our hands, but it was Da BOMB as the kids used to say... Ahem. yeah we enjoyed that a lot. The fish was fresh, and it had a very bright refreshing taste. Kinda perfect for such a hot day. Now the Musubi. I've had many a musubi in Hawaii. This rivals all the best ones. The spam was seared so well. A bit stiff outside, which is the way I like it. And the sauce on the rice, puts it over the edge. It DEFINITELY beats out the ones from L&L, THAT'S for sho! The guy was really patient with us, very friendly. He made us feel right at home, and didn't rush us or anything. If we come back to Morgan Hill, we'll DEFINTELY make room for the musubi. And maybe even try some of their other tasty offerings.

    Already dug in...lol!

    We had the truck outside of the office today. Made sure to get out there at 11 when they got there as I knew there would be a line if I didn't. Good call too, only 2 ppl in line when we got there. After I ordered I looked back at the line and there were st least 12 people whom showed up out of nowhere. I was going to order the poke bowl but decided on the chicken bowl instead because I knew I had a long day today. Glad I did. They served me a chicken thigh and a half, kimchee slaw and 2 scoops of rice. The chicken was well seasoned. Crispy. Garlicky. Juicy. Shoyu-y...lol! Delicious. Kimchee slaw was the perfect pair to the chicken. I also purchased a Hawaiian Sun because they had my fave flavor: Lilikoi Lychee! Also picked up 2 spam musubi..1 for dinner and 1 for my boss. This truck is legit. I hope they come back, I'd like to try their poke bowl next! Don't forget to tip people!!!!! They accept all major credit cards, apple/Google pay and also Venmo and Zelle.

    I tried this food truck the other day and was so excited because I love Asian cuisine. The lady who helped me was very nice and helpful. I waited about 10 minutes for my meal and ordered the K-pop garlic chicken with lava sauce on the side. The K-Pop chicken was fried chicken in sauce over white rice with green onions. It was very delicious and I would love to get it again with all lava sauce or even try something new on the menu. I passed this food truck and was intrigued by there menu

    Garlic Fried Chicken - $12
    Shins T.

    Pricey. My bf paid $12 for a small boat of garlic fries chicken and $7 for a small boat of over fried tater tots. This foot truck was located right outside Hapa's Brewing when we visited and did the job for a quick bite as it was the only option to order food from when we visited on a Friday afternoon. Will not return.

    Surf & turf musubi $10
    Vi K.

    Try this food truck at the Phillipine independent festival by Flea Market - The line was very long, over 30 min wait but the food is not worth it. The chicken was soft and a bit too sweet... and the after taste is yucky..like the meat was not fresh. The musubi is so good.. it could have been better if the rice is not soggy Over all not worth it

    Garlic Fried Chicken
    Alyson C.

    Two words: Garlic. Chicken. It was so flavorful, cooked and fried just right, and probably once of the best I've tried in a while -- and it was from a truck! I definitely heard of this truck before, but never pursued them. I found 'em at the Flea and I'm so glad for it! Definitely recommend trying the chicken, and I don't doubt that the rest of the menu pleases as well!

    Garlic Fried Chicken Bowl
    Tiffany D.

    Fire and Rice is my jam!! I'm always on the hunt for a good food truck and especially one that does Hawaiian. I feel like Hawaiian Food trucks are so hard to come by in the Bay Area. I came across this food truck via Yelp and what really caught my eye was their unique take on musubis and the garlic fried chicken. They offer a nice variety of items such as deconstructed musubis, poke tots, kalua tots, K-pop chicken, rice bowls, poke bowls and a few sides. I love that they offer so much and it's different than your average Hawaiian food spot, they put a twist on everything and I love it. My absolute favorite dish here is the Garlic Fried Chicken Bowl, it so decadent and amazing. It's a crispy fried chicken thigh dipped in their shoyu sauce and served over steamed rice and a side of kimchi slaw. The garlic fried chicken is very garlicky and I love it. The chicken thigh is very thick and meaty, always cooked to perfection and moist. I love to dip it in their house side which tastes like a spicy aioli. This truck is quite hard to come by as they are only out a couple of days during the week (unless the have private events) in either SJ, Mountain View or Morgan Hill as well as the weekends. So if you ever see their truck please make sure to stop by, you won't be disappointed!

    So I'm a little bit confused why there are pictures of onigiri all over this truck when they don't even sell it. It was a bit misleading. But nevertheless, the food was still very good. I ordered the Kahlua pig tots and they were so tasty and delicious and plentiful. I could only eat half, so I saved the rest for another day. Pop them in the air fryer and a crisp back up. Nevertheless, I was expecting to order onigiri. I think if this place wasn't so misleading I would definitely give them five stars because the food was good. But they honestly should reconsider their logos.

    Surf and turf spam musubi, garlic chicken with egg, pulled pork tots
    Allyson R.

    I paid by card. I happened to see them parked near a farmer's market and it smelled really good, so I decided to give them a try. They were Covid ready with employees wearing masks and customers required to wear masks. I ordered the pulled pork tots, garlic chicken, and surf and turf spam musubi. The garlic chicken and surf and turf spam musubi were delicious!!!! I think the garlic chicken would be amazing if it were spicy. I will probably ask if they could make it spicy next time. The pulled pork was ok, a little on the dry side, but the tater tots underneath it were good. I would recommend this place and would go back to try other items.

    Surf and Turf Musubi
    Katie R.

    I had been craving a musubi for a while now and came across this food truck on Yelp while looking for the best ones around. After a few months of following them on Instagram and hoping they would be in my city, I decided I was tired of waiting and went out to Morgan Hill to finally check them out. It was definitely worth the trip out there! The food was great, served up quickly, and was a reasonable price. The surf and turf musubi was awesome! Loved the flavor of the sauce on the shrimp. Chicken was also good, had a lot of flavor. Would've like to try the chicken as a musubi too, it was listed on their website but they didn't have it the day of. Also loved that the musubi had egg!! In my opinion, no musubi is complete without egg.

    Garlic Soy Chicken
    Jill S.

    Finally made it a point to catch them this past Saturday! They park on Depot street between Main and 1st Streets, parked in front of the Bike Therapy shop. There's tables setup between Bike Therapy and the Running Shop & Hops (beer place). You can grab a cold beer and enjoy with your poke! We loved all the items we got! The fried chicken was tender and juicy and crunchy and sticky just like how Korean fried chicken usually is. The poke was well cut and the flavors were awesome. Right amount of spice. They also have Hawaiian Sun drinks which hit the spot on a 100 degree day. We can't wait to go back! Next time we look forward to trying the kalua pork tots! Mmmm If you're missing Hawai'i, get your fix at Fire & Rice food truck!

    yummy! I The spam masubi was absolutely fire and 10/10 I would order again. I also got the kahlua pig bowl and it was tasty, however it was a little too much for me food-wise. I would prefer if they could offer two sizes for the bowls, one a little smaller (maybe 25% smaller) for a slightly lower price.

The restaurant is pretty small, so it's understandable that it gets busy, but be prepared to wait during peak hours. Once we were seated, our drinks took a really long time to come out, and that was probably the most frustrating part of the experience. The service wasn't bad, but it could definitely be more attentive, especially when the restaurant is full. Overall, the food made up for the wait, and I'd still come back. The quality, variety, and portion sizes are worth it. If they can improve the drink wait times and make the service a little more efficient, this place would easily be one of my favorites. Definitely worth checking out if you're craving Vietnamese food with plenty of options.

The Chinese sausage pieces sprinkled throughout added extra flavor too. The bowl is deep so there seemed to be roughly 5 cups of rice. Unfortunately the laksa shrimp fried rice was disappointing in comparison. It didn't have much flavor overall - better than plain rice but definitely needed more seasoning. The menu lists homemade laksa sauce as an ingredient but we didn't taste that, and the dish wasn't spicy at all either despite the 1 chili pepper rating. But it looked just like the menu picture so maybe the description is wrong. Fried chicken with tom yum sauce came with 6 pieces. Very juicy. We also enjoyed the herbal roasted prime steak with sausage rice. The delicious rice had the taste of fish sauce. Most of the short rib slices were soft and a few were slightly chewy but overall decent quality. Some of the fattier pieces of meat were still attached to the bone.

The one without ice still came cold and was about $2.50 more in price. Both tasted similar and the one with ice wasn't diluted at all. Both were refreshing and we loved the flavor. It was very authentic and refreshing. Chicken noodle soup was amazing! I don't know about the 8 hour boiled chicken since it tasted like chicken breast broth and not bone broth but it was super delicious. The noodles were slimy and it was very comforting. No chili oil was provided on the table. The server spilled some broth on our table while carrying a hot bowl of soup. I recommend asking the servers to use a serving plate to bring over food to the customer's table. Spicy chicken with honey and potatoes- We've tried this dish at many different restaurants, mostly without potato chips and we didn't like it here. Some pieces of chicken were bland and others absorbed most flavors. The honey did not help the dish at all. There was no balance of flavors. I did not like the addition of packaged wavy potato chips into the dish. Dai style seafood- This dish was very disappointing. It was served cold which was the highlight of the dish but nothing tasted fresh. This dish took the most time to come out. The dressing tasted well made, it was sweet and savory but the seafood hadn't absorbed the dressing. There were mussels, clams, squid and calamari in it and the balance of flavors was out of proportion. Laksa shrimp fried rice- Good wok hey, chewy mushroom bits and little pineapple bits but shrimp was very hard to find. The addition of egg was nice. Fried chicken with tom yum sauce- Nicely fried very tiny pieces of chicken with 1 tsp of tangy sauce. Good dish. Nothing extraordinary. I would come back for the chicken noodle soup on a cold night!

The dishes were well-prepared, flavorful, and thoughtfully presented. The overall ambiance was also enjoyable, making it a nice spot for a dinner out. Unfortunately, the experience took a concerning turn at the end of the meal. Our bill came out to $86.42, and I handed my credit card to the waiter. Within seconds (thanks to my card alerts), I received a notification that $103.92 had been charged. When the waiter returned with the receipt, there was no mention of any discrepancy. After waiting a few minutes to see if it would be addressed, I brought it up myself. The waiter appeared flustered and then claimed he had accidentally charged me for someone else's food. That explanation didn't align with the itemized bill I was given, which made the situation feel questionable. He assured me that it would be corrected and that I should see the adjustment in a few days, which I'll be watching closely. Mistakes can happen, but the lack of transparency and the fact that it wasn't proactively disclosed is what left a bad impression. Being overcharged without explanation -- and having to catch it myself -- is not something I expect when dining out. I'd consider coming back for the food, but I'd definitely be more cautious when it comes to the bill.
