Walked around downtown Morgan Hill and stumbled upon this cute spot and wow, what a find! The seafood was both delicious and surprisingly affordable. We started with the steamed clams in this garlic sauce, which were AMAZING. The sauce was so flavorful, and dipping the bread into it made it even better. We also ordered the beet salad, which was pretty good, along with the seafood linguini and seafood paella. The linguini was decent, but the seafood paella was definitely the star. It had a creamier, cheesier flavor compared to traditional paella, but it was so rich and satisfying. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was great, and the atmosphere makes it a perfect place to sit down, relax, and enjoy your company.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've seen some reviews mentioning slow service, but honestly, I think we're just so used to being in a rush.. this felt like a nice, leisurely dining experience. I'll definitely be back to try their loaded clam chowder on Sundays! read more

Came here for Mother's Day and unfortunately had a really disappointing experience. Our server was kind and doing their best, but the food quality and overall experience were not good at all. We drove almost 3 hours to visit while spending the day in the area, and honestly, we would've rather grabbed fast food instead. What made it worse was that we were hoping to treat our mom to a nice meal, but all of us ended up disliking the food. The appetizer plates we were first given were visibly dirty, so we had to ask for clean replacements right away. A few people in our group ordered the loaded clam chowder since we'd seen so many positive reviews online, but it was extremely underwhelming. The seafood tasted undercooked and the soup itself had barely any flavor. The wait time was also frustrating. We received appetizers fairly quickly, but waited almost an hour and a half for our entrees. During that time, staff kept coming by offering extra bread and refills we didn't ask for, which honestly felt more like an attempt to make up for the long delay. Meanwhile, several larger parties that arrived after us were served their meals before we were, even though our group was only 5 people. What also made the experience uncomfortable was that once our food finally arrived, we felt rushed to leave. After waiting, staff were already trying to clear plates while some of us were still eating, which felt unfair considering the delay was completely out of our control. By the time the food finally arrived, the quality just did not justify the wait. Overall, it was a very disappointing Mother's Day experience, especially after driving so far. Sadly, we won't be returning. read more

Came here on a weekday to meet up with a friend for lunch. I wanted to come to a place that was local and this was the perfect opportunity to try out a new place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Was surprised to see as many patrons as I did on a Monday but I think I was the youngest person here (and that's saying something).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered a Loco Moco and the kitchen was nice enough to not include the mushrooms into my gravy (bc mushrooms gross me out). There was only 1 server and it took a while before she came to take our order and when the food finally came out, I was happy to not see the fungus on my plate lol. However I'm used to having the gravy on top of my eggs in a traditional dish like this. Oh well this is MoHi, not Maui. Service was quite slow and not that attentive. Our waitress pushed Margaritas on us but we opted for soft drinks and it never came until I reminded her of it. This whole time I was wondering why service was so slow and where the heck Rosy was but then remembered she was at the beach and that's why there was only 1 server. The patty on the Loco Moco was prob like a 4" diameter but decent thickness. It didn't have the moisture or tenderness I was looking for and the gravy didn't have that aloha flavor but at least there was enough of it to coat most of the rice that accompanied it. I'd be willing to try this place again for their other menu items since it's right in the heart of downtown Morgan Hill and prices won't break the bank. read more

My daughter and I went to Rosiey's at the beach last night. We were seated right away and greeted very kindly by Gerry. He gave us really good service with a smile. We had the beet salad and the halibut with risotto and perfectly cooked vegetables. Absolutely delicious. .For dessert, peach cobbler with a little side of caramel sauce to top it off. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat in the back patio. Nice room for our party of 6 and our dog[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. (We've been here before.) Service was a bit slow but we weren't in a rush. Food was good and so were the drinks. My Miso Salmon was too glazy...I wish it was a little lighter but the fluffy coconut pineapple rice was good. read more

A friend and I stopped by for lunch on our way to the airport. While the service was slow, the salmon tacos were perfection! We ordered them with rice and beans but we didn't need them because these two tacos are so filling and so good. Salmon was grilled and fresh. I will be back. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior looks good with a beach theme. Pretty spacious inside and it provides a comfy settings for people to get together for a meal. The table setting is clean[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The food is ok, a bit disappointed with the portion. The portion is on the small side. The miso salmon tastes alright but the veggies are overcooked and mushy. For the prawns and scallops dish, there were 2 prawns and 4 scallops. The sauce is rich. The desserts are tiny. You can finish the lava cake in 2 bites. It's even smaller than the egg bites you can buy at Starbucks. The brownie is also small. It's expensive considering its small size. Service is decent, however, no one served us with any breads. read more

Okay, so the loco moco is a timeless classic - Loved the Clam Chowder was stellar! such a good time but make sure you havent finished all your bread because it hits best with a loaf dipped in and they charge for extra bread! the service was good. they were nice and pretty quick on the table which I loved. [[HIGHLIGHT]]the restaurant theme is highly nautical- felt like macking in bikini bottom. white table cloths, oars on the wall blah blah blah, but their seats are so so sooooo comfy. sat down and gushed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] would Def come here again and it wasn't too too expensive tbh. some of the entrees are ridiculous read more

Almost 4 pages for menu! Lots of choices. There's also dog menu which I've never seen before. Service was great. Very personable and friendly. Food was good. Seafood was fresh. Oyster was fresh although a little wimpy. Calamari was good. They got fresh crab arrived this morning and therefore lots of crab dishes as today special. We got the crab linguine. That was great. Not sure if bread was complimentary. We had to ask for it. Seafood paella was little like risotto. Seafood boil sauce was a little oily but the portion and the flavor was good. A great choice at downtown Morgan hill if you love seafood. Oh the loco moco was also great. read more

This was our first time at Rosy's at the Beach, we went for a Saturday brunch with our local friends. We saw it on IG that they have this weekend special of loaded clam chowder with lobster but turns out they only offer them on Sundays. But we still very much enjoyed our meals we ordered. The overall quality and quantity of food are very good, their wait staff are also very friendly and attentive, which we really appreciated. we had a great time there and we shall return for the loaded clam chowder! read more

This review is mostly about our server, Jacob. Rosy's, good job hiring Jacob!!! He was excellent. Jacob was very attentive, answered our numerous questions, and I mean numerous, was very nice and never made us feel like we were bothering him. Jacob, your sense of humor was spot on and just like ours so you made our dinner super fun!!! Thank you Jacob for a wonderful experience and great service. Now for the food. Delicious. We all loved our choices and look forward to returning (as long as Jacob is our server again). read more

We went here for a birthday dinner because they wanted seafood. Was hoping this would be a good place to go but it's was not. The services was friendly, but they were very slow, took us almost an hour to get our food and I don't believe the restaurant was that busy. I tried the seafood boil which had decent flavor, but should've came with some bread or something and more types of seafood. Some people had the mashed potatoes as a side to with their dinner, and they said it was very salty and way too garlic, they told me it burned their mouth. My son got the miso salmon and said the fish was OK, but didn't like any of the other sides, he was not a fan of the pineapple, coconut rice. Our waitress was super nice but that was about the only thing that we liked about the restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place looks a little rundown in the bathrooms are definitely not maintaining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Unfortunately we won't be coming back. read more

IG post of the loaded clam chowder bowl led us here!! First let me tell you that the loaded clam chowder bowl is ONLY AVAILABLE on SUNDAYS!!!! The clam chowder bowl is amazing!! Very good and worth every bit of $40 First time here, we came in on a Saturday. A nice welcoming gentleman greeted us and I explained we are from out of town and it was our first time here and he already knew that we were there for the loaded clam chowder bowl.... He explained that people have been coming from far specifically for that bowl and stated it is only available on Sundays but he would check with the chefs and ask if all of the ingredients were available to make us the bowl and thank baby jesus that the chef said YES My friend and I shared a Grilled Salmon w/asparagus salad. That salad was very good 10/10!!! Salad portion is huge and I am so glad we shared it I had a Lychee Martini made by Jacqueline martini was good There is plenty of seating available, indoor and outdoor seating There is a bar area with TVs, restaurant is clean and well decorated Food is fresh and very good, parking can be a little hard to come by, basically street parking, however parking is safe. Prices are reasonable, customer service is great, food is amazing Cant wait to come back read more

Yesterday I went to this restaurant for the first time specifically because I had looked on Yelp and saw a photo of their menu that showed a small salmon salad option for $10. When I arrived I double checked the menu, and indeed it said $10. Unfortunately the waitress didn't hear me when I said I wanted a small classic caesar salad with salmon, so when a large salad arrived I said I wanted a small. I would not be near a refrigerator for several hours, so leftovers would go to waste. She was not happy that I was sending it back for a small salad and argued about it. The manager suggested I take the salad but pay for a small one, but that wouldn't solve the food waste, so I asked that they bring me a small salad, which they did. It still had a large serving of salad, which was surprising. When the waitress served it she said they use the same amount of salmon on the small salad. So why didn't she say that when she was arguing about bringing me a smaller salad?! The waitress continued to complain to other people about the situation saying that she would be dinged for this mistake, and if she makes a few mistakes she'll be fired. As a former waitress, I would have repated the order to make sure it's correct, not argue if there was a mistake and instead apologize. In addition to the salad I ordered an iced tea, and it was the worst tea I've ever had. It tasted like water it was so watered down. Since the waitress was already complaining to other people in the restaurant about my order, I didn't send it back. The worst part was when I got the bill. In addition to the charge for the $10 salad they charged extra for the salmon. How much extra you might be wondering - $10 - the price of the salad!! Nowhere on the menu does it say there is an extra charge for protein add-ons. See attached photo. The waitress never informed me about the charge. I chose not to argue about it because I had to leave to not be late to where I was going. When there is a hidden charge the waitress should always ask the customer if it's OK before turning in the order. This did not happen. The salad itself was OK - a bit heavy on the dressing and the salmon was a somewhat overdone, but it was still good. I will never return to this restaurant. There are many other options in Morgan Hill. read more

We worked up a fierce appetite after a 3 hour hike nearby and my guy recommended this place. We were seated right away which was nice for around 4pm on a Sunday. Our server, Jacob, greeted us quickly and took our drink orders. I was in the mood for red wine so opted for the Rosie's red, which aparently is a cabernet, and I really enjoyed it for the cheaper price. My guy had a Modelo draft. We ordered, where the drinks and food came out quickly. We heard there was fresh bread coming out too, which ended up being very delicious. I ordered the Grilled Summer Seafood Salad and was SO good! It had two large scallops, shrimp and salmon on a spring mix with cheese, corn and bacon. The lemon thyme dressing wasn't overpowering and was very tasty. My guy had the shrimp and scollop meal which had a butter sauce, mixed veggies and rice. Also very tasty, but I preferred my salad. We skipped dessert, and I waited a bit to get a second glass of wine, however I wasn't too upset since I saw our server running from one end of the restaurant to another doing his best to keep up. All in all, the staff were friendly, food was great, along with service and ambiance. We will definitely be back to try more items on the menu or for their weekday specials! read more

This is a cute beach themed restaurant in downtown Morgan Hill. They have great outdoor seating in the front and back for those nice days/nights. The parking is limited in the front but you can find spots behind the restaurant. The service was excellent. Our waitress knew the menu and offered wine selections to pair. We didn't sit at the bar, but they had a nice area with a couple tvs. We were interested in this place due to the SJ Mercury article regarding Bay Area Best Fish Tacos. We had to order the Salmon Fish Taco plate. The plate came with rice and beans, plus a slice of lemon. The fish was cooked to perfection, but came with a small portions of fish. The rice and beans were good. Overall, this was a good plate. On Tuesdays, they offer the salmon taco for $3 al-a-carte. We also ordered the Boardwalk Burger. Definitely expected more for this buger, the bun to meat ratio was off. We felt like we were eating a lot of bead. The fries were well seasoned. The slaw was okay, definitely appreciated that it was not to saucey. We will back to take advantage of some of their daily specials! read more

If we are in the mood for some local dine in legit seafood, Rosy's at the beach is one of our go to spots. Ever since we moved to Morgan Hill about 16 years ago, we have been dining here for years. Their daily specials such as the Salmon Taco Tuesdays and no corkage Sundays are attractive and of great value. We also like their cozy downtown Morgan Hill location where parking can be easy and accessible as well. The wifey and I recently came here for a Sunday lunch to try their new loaded clam chowder. They offer it only on Sundays. It's been awhile since the last time we were here. Restaurant still looks nice and is busy. Service is always accommodating. The complementary bread and butter is a nice touch but our bread was burnt that day. I ordered the calamari with fries and coleslaw. It was tasty. The wifey ordered the loaded clam chowder. First of all the presentation was out of this world. It came with a lobster tail, clams with its shell, 2 big shrimps with chowder underneath all that in a sour dough bread bowl. Everything in that bowl was delicious. Wish there could have been more clam chowder since there was an abundance of seafood instead. Price point could have been a little lower on the loaded clam chowder as well. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Rosie's at the beach as usual. It was good to be back. read more

Ambiance was great sitting outside and is a solid brunch spot to visit with friends, but inside could use a little updating. Our waiter (and owner?) was AMAZING and super nice and accommodating.

Not bad but not great. They brought out our salad and less than 5 minutes later they brought the entrees. Had to box the salad to take home with no space on the table. Major faux pas! I ordered the seafood linguini and while there was plenty of seafood, the sauce was as thin as broth. It was so thin it couldn't cling to the pasta at all making it all taste bland. I have had this dish many other places and was way better elsewhere every time. The service was good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bathrooms need some help.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Probably wont return. read more

Came here on a Saturday in April for lunch. We did have a reservation, but the young lady at the hostess table who appeared to be doing nothing did not acknowledge or welcome us into the restaurant until we spoke first. It was a hot day and after being seated I ask her if she could bring me a glass of water. She told me that was not her job, and that I would have to wait for my server for that. She didn't ask any one to bring me the water and she went back to doing nothing at the hostess table. The restaurant is a really cute place and when server came she was really nice, and provided excellent service. The food was well prepared and served in a timely manner. Overall it was a delightful dining experience and I do recommend coming here. I would have given a 5 star review if it had not have been for the unpleasant experience with the hostess. read more

There was a viral IG post about the loaded clam chowder that first put this place on our radar. My husband and I came on a Friday night with friends so we got other food items since the loaded clam chowder is only available on Sundays. We ordered the oysters on the half shell and combination fryer plate to share, and I got clam chowder and the Spanish paella for myself. Overall the food was decent but I feel like the Spanish paella could've used a lot more flavor, as it tasted pretty bland despite there being a good amount of seafood. Service was a little bit on the slow side as the staff would check in with us but we had to ask for water several times. read more

My fiancé and I went to Rosie's on Sunday 7/12 around 12:00 for their Sunday specials menu. The staff is so wonderful, respectful and just delightful to be around! I ordered the loaded clam chowder sourdough bowl with clams, mussels, shrimp and a lobster tail. The soup was amazing, however when I got to the lobster, at first glance it was rubbery looking. I went to taste it and it was unpleasant. Super salty, muddy tasting like dirty water and super rubbery in texture. I took one bite and not long after I got sick. I called Rosie's to inform them of what had happened. I left a voicemail and have not heard back. I hope no one else got sick that day from the lobster! Overall I love Rosie's and we go often, however this experience with the seafood made me hesitant to return. read more

We had the prawn salad special recommended by our server Anna. Did not disappoint! The house made dressing was so delicious and the battered prawns were plump and juicy. Would order again.

After hearing so many folks around me talk about how much they loved Rosy's we decided to give it a try. To say I regret that decision ... is an understatement. The service was great all the staff were nice and attentive. The environment reminded me of an attempt to dress up a 90s 'fish house'. Chairs were warn and old ... mismatched painting and mountings of fish on the walls, etc. I grew up going to fish houses ... my grandaddy owned several while I was growing up so I am familiar with the fish mountings and wood paneling. The food was absolutely terrible! The shrimp spinach empanadas with a significant lack of shrimp (and spinach for that natter), calamari fried so hard you could not chew them (oily rubber bands), crab cake tasted like a store bought egg roll (hubby and I still can't figure this out), shrimp and fish over fried, clam chowder had no clam in it (was relatively ok potato soup), French fries tasted like day old reheated Wendy's fries (they had that reheated fry texture), shrimp overcooked slightly mealy, fish over fried and slightly oily, tarter sauce was runny dill herb sauce and NOT tarter sauce (someone needs to give tarter sauce making lessons to someone around here), the tuna poke' was funny tasting and a bit slimy (so was the avocado). More on the tuna poke'... I ordered it as my entree. I took a total of one bite of the tuna which was weird texturally (please keep in mind - well, you all know I eat poke' alllll the time) and it had a slimy texture and weird overly sweet taste. I immediately told hubby 'this is odd, I'm not sure I should attempt eating this'. I tried to eat the seaweed salad off the top ... it too had a strange textural feel and taste. I then tried the avocado... it too was slimy. After three bites I pushed it aside and told waitress that there was something the matter with it and I could not eat it. She asked if I'd like something else and I declined. I do not think I have ever sent a dish back to the kitchen declining to eat it. First time for everything I suppose. About two or three hours after I got home I got sick and have been feeling sick all night. Currently sipping on seltzer water ... avoiding all food and regretting that I once again listened to word of mouth recommendations! I absolutely do not like Rosy's... in fact at this particular point in time I absolutely despise Rosy with a burning purple passion! 0 stars ... DO NOT recommend! read more

Price and Food Quality & Quantity was not what my family and I expected. We order the Steamed Clams, Garlic Shrimp & Scallops, and Mac Nut Halibut. Our Steamed Clams were tasty but the quantity and price was not worth it at $18 - There was barely a dozen clams on the plate. The Garlic Shrimp & Scallops was not worth the price at $28 - I expected more than 3 shrimps and 2 scallops and the sides (mash potatoes & steamed veggies were cold). The Mac nut Halibut was dry. Overall the food quality was not there. My family was not pleased with the service. Our waitress was not attentive at all. She spent majority of her time chatting it up with another table where the conversation lasted for about 10 - 15 mins in total (it was 2 visits). Overall very disappointed and won't be going back again. read more

My dish lacked flavor. I ordered the seafood linguine and a bowl of clam chowder for my daughter. The mussels, clams, prawns and calamari in the pasta were tough, overcooked and lacked flavor. The bits of salmon in the dish were also bland. The menu lists that this should have a chardonnay butter sauce, but there really was no flavor of that in my order. I asked for parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes to add something to it. At $24 I was disappointed at the quality of this dish. The clam chowder was also a bit bland and watered down. My daughter loves clam chowder but she was just not a fan of this one. My husband ordered the Sesame Encrusted Ahi and the flavor was good. However, there was a big chunk of ginger hidden in the greens and when he bit down he was not expecting that huge burst of ginger flavor to blast his palate. Overall, the decor is lovely, but service is pretty slow and the food was underwhelming. I had hoped it would be a place I could bring a large group for a birthday or celebration, but after experiencing the food and service I probably wouldn't. Maybe it was an off day, maybe some people prefer their food this way. For me, it was not the best experience. I don't get to go out to eat often, so to have slow service, then have the server spill a glass of wine on me then have our food be bland it was just too many negatives in one sitting for me. Server was lovely and apologetic and I was not upset about the wine spill at all, accidents happen. Maybe you will have a better experience than I did, but this is my honest review of my visit. read more

Stick to fish tacos. We love the salmon tacos here, just deliciou. But tonight we ordered clam chowder and the chicken pot pie. Both the chowder and the pot pie filling tasted the same. Both were predominantly flour thickened tasteless goo. If you want great clam chowder walk a half block up to Giorgio's. Lastly if you want to be rushed through your meal, this is the place for you. At 7:30 on a Thursday night there are plenty of tables to turn. Let a person finish their appetizer before you bring the entree and definitely let them put their fork down before you deliver the check. read more
