Asian Restaurants near Alameda

“Great food and service. My earring came off during dinner and I didn’t discover that it was missing until I got home. I called the next day and they went out of their way to find my favorite Christmas earring.“

“First, even though it feels like a hole in the wall, the service is top notch, warm and friendly. That is rare in this type of establishment and deserves a shout out. I consider this a hidden Oakland Chinatown gem.

Second, their food is authentic Chinese and some of it is hard to find. The main attraction is the double-boiled soup (燉湯). Ours was bone and heart-warming. We had the abalone soup (#1) and the black silkie chicken soup (#6). These soups are considered to be extremely nourishing soups - there are ones designated for high blood pressure etc. It's also the kind of soup that pregnant women are told to drink. I come here for soup after surgery.

We ordered the set menu for two, which included two soups of your choice, half a steamed chicken, a whole steamed fish, a plate of green steamed vegetable, and two bowls of rice.

My 83 year old Taiwanese mom kept saying she couldn't finish her soup because of all the other dishes. But finish every drop she did, and she clearly loved hers!

Their set menu is a bona fide DEAL (quality, quantity, and value). We stuffed ourselves so we had to waddle out to our car. Before I could pull out of the parking spot, mom demanded that I bring her back again this weekend before she leaves.

We devoured the steam fish so fast that we forgot to take a photo. Not one morsel was left. The steamed chicken was moist and flavorful; the ginger/scallion sauce was great. The vegetable was cooked just right. Their chef is amazing.

The steam rice with eel wrapped in lotus leaves is next on my list for my next visit. We almost hijacked another table's order of it. They serve dim sum all day - what?! Yay.

Please don't come. We want to keep getting seated with no line.“

“Deliciously wonderful unique food.“

“Very delicious authentic Asian cuisine. The pork and duck combo were magnificent. The owner/operator is super nice. Hong Kong ice milk tea is a great sipper on a hot day. I'm not sure about seating, but I took it to go, so it wasn't an issue. Very reasonable prices.“

“Every time my girlfriend and I come here we get the absolute best service, the food is just spectacular and so authentic and always fresh. Literally the best salmon sashimi I have ever had. Aside from that, it's just so cozy and inviting and everybody is so friendly, oh and the portions are monstrous! You will love this place if you love authentic Japanese and Chinese food!“

“Delicious pho ga. Soup is on point. Full of flavor.“

“Omfg. Want Michelin star level food in delightfully casual digs at normal-people prices? This is your spot. Just had the most melt-in-your-mouth brisket bowl. Beef was eye-wateringly delicious. Veggies steamed to a crunchy perfection. Jasmine rice fluffy. Annoying work day forgotten! Was going to take it to go and ended up staying to eat, drink some rose, and chill out in the cute surroundings. Officially one of my new fave spots“

“Their war won ton soup is the best in town, always made fresh to order. If you don't have time to wait or to call ahead there is also an inexpensive quick lunch (pre-prepared and set out like panda express) which is popular with nearby workers, but I have not tried it. 2020.“

“Staff are nice and the bowl is good.
It’s a popular restaurant here so it might be flooded with students around lunch time, and the waiting time might be longer during peak hours.

Only things is that the tips is mandatory as there’s no other option when you order through the pad.
Also, since they’re generous with their sauce, if you don’t like too much sauce, choose “sauce on the side” option and not mix in. ?

“This place has been a staple for years. From the last time I was here until tonight… it hasn’t changed one bit. The quality and the service are on point and I just want to thank everyone here on this team and the ownership too. Cheers 🙏“

“I heard the food Truck in Oakland has better tasting food than here, and I have to say, if it is then it must be real good because this food was really good. I got their Trio Burrito which has New York steak, chicken, shrimp, garlic fried rice, vegetables & yummy sauce inside. That yummy sauce is fire on the burrito I poured it on every bite. The burrito is huge and very filling. My wife and son got their combo meals which also had a lot of food. The meal my wife got was their shrimp chicken and lobster. It was a whole lobster tail and the shrimp was a pretty good size. She said the chicken however was a little dry. She couldn’t finish all of it, so for the amount you get and what you pay I’d say it’s a pretty fair deal but a little on the pricey side. Overall a fantastic experience and a must recommend to go.“

“Small shop with warm food and an open fridge section of sushi. There was also a wall of snacks. Prices are very reasonable. No verbal communication which I think is fine but the woman dropped my packed sushi upside down and then tossed it into a bag. Sushi rice was a bit too hard for my liking.“

“Been coming to here for years. The pho soups, all the vermicelli, the rice plates, the appetizers, and the beverages are always amazing. I am so happy this place is still here till this day.
The broth is always so good in their soups.“

“This is my new favorite location. I usually go to Alameda, but the Oakland location is my new favorite! The staff are always friendly! My lemon pepper wings are ALWAYS on point. They have had one mess up with my order once, but they immediately provided GREAT customer service and resolved the issue immediately. They are my go-to spot for when I want to treat myself to lunch, and I don't eat out at many places ever since covid. They are a well trusted business and no issues or complaints! Try their lemon pepper wings and strawberry lemonade! Their garlic noodles and house rice are good as well.“

“Been eating here all my life and never had a problem, so I stick to what I know.“
