42 Best Chinese Restaurants in Fremont

“We love this place! We’ve been here a few times, and the food never disappoints us. The restaurant is very spacious with a large variety of food. The flavor is very authentic. Malatang tastes great and comes with plenty of meat and veggies. I highly recommend the brown sugar rice cakes.“

“I have no idea the food here is delicious. after passing by it really blew me away. who knew I would be getting top quality. you get quality ingredients here. will come again in the future“

“we've been 3 times in the past few months and every time was great. we went the day after my wife's birthday, the same day our pet passed, and the staff made it a very special experience and distraction from our loss. absolutely recommend 110%. great food, great people, great experience overall.“

“Ordered takeout here and every time I do, the owner is always a great character to interact with and makes this place memorable. Food portions are great and the taste is on point. My favorite has been the salt and pepper fish but of their salt and pepper protein options are delicious. When you ask for good Chinese food recommendations from Fremont locals, this place usually is brought up and for good reason.“

“very authentic flavors, super friendly service and very welcoming! buns were handmade and the dough was very fresh and yeasty, kind of like sourdough. felt like being back at grandma's. chinese donut was nice and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. was worth driving nearly an hour to eat.“

“We were craving some home cooked meal and found EE Home Cooking, so here we are. The restaurant is pretty small and is quite home-ish. There were two people eating and a guy ordering a takeout. We sat down in their wooden table and here are what we ordered for lunch:

Mapo Tofu with Minced Beef Plate (lunch special) - 5 out of 5
Their Mapo tofu has a little kick to it in combination with shredded beef in it. It's an unique take to mapo tofu since most mapo tofu these days are heavy in sauce mixed with vegetables or that it has a mix of pork inside. Although it's different, I kinda like the mapo tofu version EE Home Cooking is bringing into the table very much and I would recommend if you're a fan of mapo tofu to try their take on it as well.

Sweet & Sour Pork Plate (lunch special) - 5 out of 5
The sweet & sour pork plate is a fairly common dish that the Cantonese cuisine make well. EE's take is no exception. A dish well done and you can't go wrong whether you've had it plenty of times or is just trying for the first time.

Salt & Pepper Spare Ribs - 5 out of 5
Yet, another Cantonese stable. The salt & Pepper spare ribs EE does a great job with it especially on the salt, the pepper mix. In combination with some freshly fried pork chop, yum!

The owner and I chatted a little. She mentioned about their take out to be discounted. 3 dishes for $39.99 is really a steal. I might just give that a try next time and so should you!“

“It was my first time and I had a good hype for this place from my Asian friends. This place was packed on a weekend and I heard they are busy most weekends. The place is cozy and we had to wait 15 mins to get a table. Their service is friendly and quick. We got the bbq fish which is this location famous for. I have to say I was surprised by the size and quantity. It was a big fish and good for 3 to 4 people. Though the fish was big it was mostly bones and their broth was spicy and sour with ample of veggies. We got Jasmine rice to go with it and it was good. The fish was fresh and the broth was soothing. We also got complimentary Ube dessert. Overall had a nice time and will definitely come back to try out their other dishes.“

“The picture says it all. 😋“

“The best food I’ve ever had in my life. It’s like they put voodoo magic in their food I just don’t understand how it’s that good. Just take all my money it’s fine. My favorites are the soup bao, honey walnut shrimp and orange chicken I could just freaken live off their soup bao“

“This place reminds me of the old-school Chinese and Taiwanese places you’d find in the San Gabriel Valley in SoCal in the early 2000s. Mandarin speaking, straightforward service and just good Chinese comfort food.

At 11am on a Saturday it was packed with mainlanders, a good sign. What I really love about it is the honest pricing…we ordered a noodle, pan-fried buns and wonton soup for only $41 total. That’s a steal in this crazy economy, especially considering how labor-intensive Chinese dumplings are.

- Shanghai pan fried buns were crispy on outside, fluffy on the inside. Delicious!
- The shepherd’s purse wonton was okay, but slightly over-boiled; the wrappers were gummy.
- Scallion oil noodles were delicious and in a generous serving that two can share

The elderly couple running this place are both really nice and friendly. They’re more comfortable speaking Mandarin but they speak some English as well.“

“This was a great treat having all of the grilled food with a very tasty sauce. Very unique experience that I have not seen before. My only nits would be didn't feel fresh off the grill (likely cooked ahead of time) and very small food on the stick so seemed like a waste of skewers for the tiny portion. They did give you enough overall food just too much waste.“

“Having enjoyed their dishes many times for months, It’s beyond “Very Satisfying”! Excellent, delicious food! Quality well maintained although it is a hard time under C-19. Hygiene suggestions n requests well followed! Thanks 🙏 Customer Service outstanding! Highly recommended 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“超级良心餐厅，坚持品质十几年“

“Delicious and Fresh! Every dish at Garam Mirchi tastes homemade with fresh ingredients and authentic spices. The paneer fried rice and the Hakka noodles had a great smoky flavor. Definitely recommended!“

“Highly recommend this meat shop. Everything is fresh, well-cut, and the selection is impressively complete. From BBQ cuts to hot pot slices, you can find everything you need in one place. Big portions, fair prices — great quality for the value.“

“muy buena comida y sopas también 😉😉😉“

“So good! The food was super flavorful and tasted really authentic. Perfect balance of spicy and numbing — exactly what I was craving. The crispy chicken and peppercorn fish were amazing!

Service was friendly and quick, and everyone was really nice. Great spot for Sichuan food — will definitely be back!“

“超级良心餐厅，坚持品质十几年“

“Great flavor and generous portion sizes especially for the noodle and porridge dishes. The Char siu chow mein was delicious and the Xiao long bao simply melts in the mouth. Tried the black gold lava buns for the first time and it was simply delicious😋 Definitely my new go to place for dim sum in the area“

“Food is excellent! Flavor is excellent. Best is take the food home for to go.

This is one of those hole in the wall place. Not fancy, not good ambiance. It only have enough place for 12 people and a single lady wrote a cashier and serving food. I just want to set an expectation for everyone. However, I really enjoy the food and I thought it was much better than I imagined. Everything ordered was good. $60 for 4 items.

Yes we will be back.“

“Some of the best “mom and pop” dim sum and Chinese bbq I’ve had in the bay. Everything came in gigantic portions and was amazing. The value was there. We were able to spread out a single meal of about $30 into 3-4 different meals.

What we ordered:
- roast pork and duck bbq with fried rice
- (2) shumai
- (1) crazy shrimp (baseball sized shrimp balls)
- (1) shrimp rice roll.“

“Found this place on Instagram from a reel talking about their garlic chicken wings. So far, the crispiest wings I ever had and juicy too with decent flavor. I also ordered their Mongolian beef with salt and pepper fish and pork chops alongside their honey walnut shrimp. For the money, they give you good quality and quantity and would definitely consider this place again for my Chinese food fix“

“3.5 stars rounded up

No wait on a Saturday when they opened at 11am.

Very friendly service. Large portion sizes so 4 dishes were more than enough for 5 of us.

Bamboo Shoot Shredded Pork - this was an unique item, I've never seen this anywhere before. The pork was tender and had good flavor. The bamboo shoots were soft and had good texture but not as much flavor as the pork.

Braised Tofu or whatever it is called on the menu- looks salty because of the dark color but it was“

“I’m an regular customer and I’ve been eating for an long time and the food in that place was quite fantastic and casual but enjoyable times 👍✨“

“Great Sichuan food and great atmosphere. I got five dishes and I recommend all of them:

- Tender Beef in Spicy Sauce
- Kung Pao Chicken
- Pork Fried Rice
- Dandan Noodles
- Dry Cooked String Beans

If you’re not a fan of spicy, feel free to omit the Tender Beef in Spicy Sauce, but you are truly missing out.

Service was also great! Very attentive and kind :)“

“Came here because my cousin was craving momos late night and this is the only place open at 11:30pm on a weeknight. So I drive him here swearing I wasn’t hungry.

He ordered the chicken Hakka noodles and chicken momos and they were a solid 4/5. 5 because he was hungry. I had some: they were filing and spicy.

Unsure what the rest of the complaint-ready local populous is going on about. Food is fine and service is normal. Worth a visit now and then.“

“We had order special menu fish in two ways： fry tofu. Fish ball.
Olive vegetable (橄榄菜), lettuce dish, black fungus & locus cordyceps flowed/ vegetarian
Portion is big, all dishes are very delicious and even forget to take pictures.
I did take pictures for menus
This is an excellent restaurant, definitely come back again!“

“Interesting shop that sell primarily chicken feet.it is small store with the display of all the flavor of chicken feet and you can try any one of it. It is boneless chicken feet. It just opened couple months a go. It is not easy to find as the store name Hao Shi Ji. You order using the touch screen kiosk. It also has stand at Great mall.
Beside chicken feet it also has the rice and mince pork rice.
There are 5 variant of the flavors. For me the spicy one is good. There is also spiciest level. Pricewise I think quite high. It is unique experience.“

“Zhangfei Hotpot in Fremont is an absolute gem! I've been searching for authentic, flavorful hotpot in the Bay Area, and this place truly delivers.
We opted for their classic Spicy Mala broth, and it was incredibly aromatic and delicious – perfectly balanced with numbing peppercorns and a rich, spicy kick. It genuinely transported me back to the hotpot experiences I've had in China! The selection of ingredients is fantastic; everything from the tripe and duck intestine to the fresh vegetables was high quality and cooked beautifully in the broth.
The sauce bar is incredibly well-stocked, offering a huge variety of condiments to customize your perfect dipping sauce. You can go classic with sesame oil and garlic, or get creative with their extensive options.
The ambiance is also lovely – a clean and comfortable space with a nice blend of traditional and modern decor, making it great for a casual meal or a gathering with friends.
Value for money is excellent too. Considering the quality of the food and the service, I felt it was very reasonably priced.
Overall, I highly recommend Zhangfei Hotpot to anyone looking for an authentic and delicious hotpot experience in Fremont. You won't be disappointed!

“Great food for some HK cafe favorites. Definitely coming back when we’re in the mood for some home style meals.

I wish they had a few more servers during the busy dinner rush. However, shoutout to Jeremy for the excellent service and food! He’s the real mvp!“

“非常好吃，超愛煉乳銀絲卷“

“Have been enjoying this dim sum gem for several years now when visiting family in the Bay Area, and it is unquestionably the most delicious I have had the privilege of encountering. I say this having grown up in Flushing, Queens and living in both Mainland China (and Hong Kong) for over twenty years since. I have been eating dim sum weekly for probably 45 years or more. I have been to Michelin rated dim sum restaurants and the most famous/notable eateries in both NYC and San Francisco. Pearl Bay is hands down my favorite. It has a really extensive choice of dishes. The food is fresh and uses some really high quality ingredients. My only (small) criticism is the quality of the hot sauce, which I prefer mixed with red bean paste rather than sriracha. But next time I may bring my own. This place is perfect for large parties. You can make reservations too, so why are you waiting?! And the staff are lovely, both friendly, quick and accommodating. Will gladly look forward to returning at some point in the future. Thank you (again) Pearl Bay!“

“Always good. I come here to eat whenever I'm in the area. Best canto food and in a clean and nice location with plenty of parking. Is located in the parking lot of a business area, which I find kind of weird but totally awesome for the fact that it's easily accessible.

This place also serves dim sum thoughout the day, which is a total plus in my opinion because most places don't serve them some past 2:00 p.m.

The dim sum is actually pretty legit and traditional. You can get pretty busy during lunch time, but it moves pretty quickly.“

“My family and I had the pleasure of dining at Northwest China Cuisine last weekend, and we were blown away by the exceptional service and cuisine! Our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, helping us navigate the extensive menu and making excellent recommendations. The dishes we ordered were expertly prepared and presented, with flavors that were both bold and nuanced. We were particularly impressed by the restaurant's commitment to using only the freshest and highest-quality ingredients. We can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!“

“Every other year when I visit my home away from home, I gotta have me some Panda Express. My Chinese friends don’t understand.

This joint is kept clean and bright. Food’s on par. Rice was fluffy and noodles weren’t drenched in oil. Everything else was just as you’d expect from any Panda or fast food joints.

But Tina and Nooran were extremely friendly. With smiles and an upbeat tone, they differentiate themselves from the usual “you-owe-me-money” attitude from most of other fast food servers.

Good memories kept and served.“

“This restaurant is a neighborhood family restaurant, in a location not depending on foot traffic. Despite its name, it offers an extensive Taiwan style menu besides dumplings. Service is friendly and efficient. It's menu items are reasonably priced, and good portions.“

“Authentic Hong Kong style Cafe open late night until 12:00 a.m. My late night favorites are XO noodles chow fun , pork chop w spaghetti and club sandwich. Specials come with a drink, lemon tea or milk tea. Bring your Hong Kong friend. They will feel nostalgic ! They only accept cash.“

“Great food! We will definitely be back!“

“The quality of food and service has improved considerably over the years. Used to be bad, now, this panda is not so bad and getting better and better from my recent experiences. Still, arrival time is everything if you want steamy freshly cooked foods.“

“There were a lot of choices, but ended up getting a standard option from the menu - totally forgot what I ordered.However I do remember the how everything tasted. Hope you like spicy too… it was intense but good.I was recommended the herbal tea as well to quench the inferno, which was a great recommendation.This place is a counter inside a food court, so don’t expect a fine dining ambiance.Definitely coming back again.“

“Typical Taiwanese meal for anytime of the day. Homemade taste definitely brings back childhood memories. It’s on the lighter side and somewhat makes me feel healthier or not as guilty for dining out, perfect for those who want to take a break from hearty foods.

Friendly and super fast service. Variety of dishes to choose from and never running out things to try out, which make me a returning diner to this unique place.“
