Free Pho for the People

Monster Pho | 360 40th St

We are thrilled to announce that our homie , the talented local rapper @seijioda (gentle gig general) , will be joining us for a second time! He will be gracing us with a FREE, live performance out of the kindness of his heart. We are so thankful for his generosity in helping us give back to the community.

Join Us in Spreading More Joy: Our Toy Drive!

We’re also hosting a toy drive again to support a truly wonderful cause. If you are able, we invite you to bring a new, unwrapped toy to drop off at the restaurant during our event.

All toys collected will be donated to OAKLAND CHINATOWN’s @friendsoflincolnsquarepark . For over 20 years, they have been passing out free toys to families with young children during the holidays. We are fortunate to play a small part in their amazing mission.

Overall, with everything going on in the world, we feel incredibly lucky to still be here, doing what we love, and serving you. This event is our small way of saying thank you for eleven years of support, laughter, and community.

From the bottom of our bowls, thank you.

PEACE ! LOVE ! PHO!

Monster Pho Family
