31 Best Asian Restaurants near Berkeley

“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.“

“They have great Tso's and had the best pork fried rice a year ago, this visit it had less flavor but whatever seed oil they use to fry has good character. I'll be back, maybe it was just a bad batch. And it wasn't bad, just lacking.“

“I have had a few bad ban mi’s and I’ve been skeptical since. This place might have changed my mind. The chicken and ingredients were so fresh and flavorful. My ONLY complaint is that the bread was a little stale. Everything else hmm how do you say “bussed”? Give them a try!“

“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.“

“An absolute SF classic that lives up to the hype! The English cut prime rib was perfectly aged, tender, and juicy, spun tableside from the silver dome cart—pure theater. Loved the Yorkshire pudding, creamed spinach, and that massive baked potato. Cocktails are strong and old-school. The retro vibe with white tablecloths feels like stepping back in time. Reservations essential, but it's worth it for a special occasion meat-lover's feast.“

“Always delicious and awesome service!!!!“

“The staff was wonderful. They were able to shift our reservation indoors which was awesome. The food and service was excellent. The prices were reasonable. The place got very loud and it was difficult to hear conversation across the table at times. Still, it's a great place. I've been there numerous times and recommend Base Camp to friends all the time.“

“Service was fast and efficient. Food was good.“

“Deliciously wonderful unique food.“

“What a great experience! I especially love the chicken Goyza, pork dim sum and the Xiao Long Bao. I can’t wait to go back! Chef Suz ATX“

“Dropped in for late lunch. Quick service, great food.“

“I enjoyed my Meal. I found the service excellent and Ti curry yum.“

“Both the spicy numbing beef tendon and the spicy rib and noodle soup were delicious.“

“I rarely eat in here, but when I do I enjoy the atmosphere and service. Much more frequently, I do take out, and it is always great. The ingredients taste fresh and perfectly seasoned, and it is always on time. HB is probably my favorite spot for take out in Oakland.“

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

“A Chinese friend introduced to this place many, many years ago, rediscovered it recently. Been there a number of times since, food good, prices low. Contrary to some reviews, I do not find staff to be rude, in fact they are friendly and approachable, esp when you are return customer. Husband and wife run the place, they are there all the time, work hard, long hours to make a living. I would recommend to anyone looking for a family restaurant with authentic Chinese cuisine!“

“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.“

“Kayah is another location of the Burma empire in SF. The location is quite nice, right next to the Chase stadium and hospital. The service is excellent, our server was attentive and took great care of us, answering questions about dishes in detail.

The good is where this place really falls short. We found the dishes to be quite bland and sometimes undercooked. We ordered the spicy noodles, which were not spicy at all and the noodles very very al dente. The several tofu dishes we ordered tasted identical, the paratha curry had very little flavor, it was just very disappointing. The saving grace was the tea leaf salad and the garlic eggplant dish, both were quite tasty. But for the price, I really expected more, both in quantity but especially quality.

We really wanted to like this place but will not be coming back.“

“We’ve been coming to Noodle 21 for over 5 years now, and it continues to be one of our favorite spots! My husband introduced me to this place, and over time I found my perfect pho order — #21 with thin egg noodles, no bean sprouts, and soup on the side.

Back in August 2024, the original owner told us he was leaving and passing the business on to his partner. He was always so kind, always made time to chat with us, and greeted us warmly every visit. I was pregnant at the time, so sadly, he never got to meet our baby — but we’re happy to say we’ve kept coming back and still love it just as much as day one.

The staff now is just as welcoming. They remember us, they remember our baby, and it truly feels like a place that values its regulars. The food is consistently delicious, and the atmosphere is comforting and familiar. We’re so glad this spot continues to thrive, and we look forward to many more meals here as a family.“

“Wow, really like the food. Visited this area for my wife's company event and found they have less spicier vegetarian option. After my kids loving the noodles, we ordered more . I really liked my spicy chicken noodle too. The quantity is good for the price we pay for. Definitely visit it again !!“

“Good mix of old school and new school. And really good hot pot broth!!!“

“My friend recommended this place and I went to try it with my husband on Friday night.
We ordered chili beef, tea leaf salad, orange chicken and all good and the tea leaf salad was really good.
I will definitely go back and try other dishes there.“

“Very good. I'm not really a fan of Chinese food but my son asked it was his birthday and the place we usually order from was closed. I have to admit it was really good. I ordered chicken chow mein, fried rice, beef broccoli, sweet sour pork, sesame chicken, and gyoza. Everything was delicious hot fresh flavorful and quick. Keep n mind this was the 4th of July, they were open and the guy who took my order was really nice and attentive. This will be my new spot“

“food was yummy! they have unique flavors of XLB (soup dumplings) that i’ve never seen before of my favorite things. like sinigang and pho xlb??? they were fun to try. the cucumber appetizer was also soooooo good, everyone at the table wanted more. dare i say better than the ones at din tai fung…

we went on a weekday, no game and there wasn’t much customers, so service was fast and they were really nice!“

“Fantastic! Get the stone cooked wqgyu beef appetizer!“

“Truly the king of sizzling pots. Boy when that pot comes out is it sizzling and hot.
Overall I find that the restaurant is pretty chill. The people working there seem cool and authentic, and the food is tasty too. The menu has a lot of different things to choose from so you can just eat what you like. The way it’s cooked is also really nice, as the texture of the meat is very tender.

For desert we got the fried bread and condensed milk. And it was tasty too, tantalized our taste buds“

“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 had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant, and it exceeded all my expectations. The service was prompt, and the staff made us feel right at home. The food was a culinary masterpiece. The restaurant's ambiance is serene and tastefully decorated. A must-visit!“
