“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.“

“food is delicious. staff is so friendly and so supportive. They have the best vegetarian food in bay area.. I would recommend everyone who read this message to try at least once...I have done catering from this place and owner and staff have done great job...good job guys keep it up..GOD BLESS“

“The sushi portions are generous and satisfying, and the atmosphere is great—comfortable and inviting. However, the service is lacking and could be more attentive. Overall, good food and ambiance, but the service could be better. Only reason not giving a 5 ⭐“

“Ambiance - 5/5 Great experience wit unique decor, the dining area gives off the old street vibes for sure. When you walked in, immediately you are greeted with this nice Chinese decoration. Even their mugs are unique and give the old street vibes.

Food - 5/5 we ordered some skewers, malatang and tomato beef brisket noodle soup. I said their malatang is the best and the highlight here. We ordered the mild spicy Cheng Du soup base that comes with less soup and serve on a big platter. The broth is clean yet super flavorful, tasty with a good strong hint of spice. The heat level was just nice for us as we get to enjoy the broth without the numbing/burning hot effect.

Their fried tofu and quail eggs skewers are seasoned just nice and only complained is the portion is small as I was expecting more than 3pieces of tofu per skewers. But then again these are not the normal cold tofu (it's the better grade, chewy version).

We ended with their rice cake. It's so good and addictive. I couldn't stop eating and have to hold myself back to save the last piece for my family. It's crunchy on the outside but super light and airy inside (unlike most other rice cakes which are usually fairly dense) And very soft and chewy.

Service - 5/5 Very good, observant and attentive. They provided us with extra napkins without us having to ask for more.

I will for sure come back again.“

“We are from Connecticut, and during a recent trip to the Bay Area, we had the extreme good fortune to try the Afghan Awasana Kabob House. Oh my ... what an experience! The food was superb … an epicurean delight, but also plentiful, and very reasonably priced. The qabuli palow - a lamb shank dish was a standout, and the squash bolani - a stuffed flatbread was out of this world. The owner was very friendly during dinner, only to be surpassed by what happened after our dinner. Upon leaving, our car would not start. The owner offered to jump start our car. When that did not work, he offered us a ride back to the house where we were staying ... which we gratefully accepted. On the way, while we were thanking him profusely, he indicated that this was not an imposition as he routinely gave rides to his workers. I was moved to tears with his generosity. The Afghan Awasana Kabob House stimulated my palate, satiated my appetite, and above all, nourished my soul with renewed faith in the kindness of humanity. A truly memorable evening that will not soon be forgotten.“

“Wonderful customer service. Friendly and fast. This charming nostalgic diner caters to classic American comfort foods.“

“This sushi restaurant its so good! The deluxe uni handball is SUPER tasty. I could have eaten 50 of them.

We ordered soft shell crab, which was a smaller crab than I am typically used to at ither places, but it still tasted good and had a nice crunchy texture.

The mix tempura was probably the best tempura I've had ever. The texture was light and crispy and not soggy at all (which is very easy for it to get).

Then we ordered chicken udon for our 3 year old, who lodged the noodles and broth.

We ordered the Deluxe sashimi as our main dish and it was absolutely delicious! I loved the ice underneath the radish to keep the sashimi cold (my daughter loved it too and kept eating it).

They gave us edaname beans and green tea ice cream complementary which was nice before abd after the meal.

I highly recommend!“

“Delicious burgers with options to suit all tastes. They have beef, chicken, and veggie patties as well as some without Pakistani spices for picky eaters like my daughter. They also have loaded quesadillas with fries and their signature spicy sauce which are amazing. They also have a good variety of shakes. We’ve had the mango and the Oreo Never Boreo.“

“The BEST pizza in Fremont!!! I moved from that god forsaken city in 2020 and the only thing I miss is Mission pizza. It's the very first stop we make when coming back down to California. We've always experienced amazing customer service interactions in all three locations that they've had. The pizza has also always been on point. Now I'm mad because it's 440 miles away and I'm craving it. (please open one in Oregon...they have crappy pizza up here 🥺😭)“

“My husband and I ate here just before Christmas. We recently moved here and Papillon came highly recommended. Everything from the freondly staff to the Delicious food was perfect. We even got the chance to meet the owner. Such a wonderful place.“

“Great Service! Jose is a really great waiter! Enjoyed our family breakfast! :D Fast and wonderful service! Will definitely be back soon! Jose and Dennys team are welcoming and friendly!“

“Traditional and authentic Hunan and Sichuan food. Blueprint of a typical Shanghai restaurant.“

“I stopped by Cafe Mei in Fremont for a quick breakfast and tried their Signature Pork Sung Sandwich. Wow, what a treat! The sandwich was perfectly toasted, with a flavorful pork patty, fresh cucumber, and that sweet mayo that ties it all together. It felt like a true taste of Taiwan, just like the reviews mentioned. The staff was super friendly, and the vibe was cozy yet trendy. Only wish they had longer hours for us late risers! Highly recommend for anyone craving an authentic Taiwanese breakfast sandwich.“

“Being part Burmese, I was very impressed with Burma Bay Cafe’s delicious dishes! Great service too. I’ll definitely be back.“

“The picture says it all. 😋“

“We haven’t left the restaurant and I’m writing this review. It’s been years since I’ve come to Country Way and I’m so glad we came here. It feels like stepping into a piece of Fremont’s history, yet the restaurant looks so well maintained.

We got the linguicia omelette, country fried steak, and French toast. Everything tasted so good! The French toast was unlike others we’ve had—it’s like a happy combo of pancakes and French toast. Would recommend getting extra crispy potatoes. Service was quick and so friendly! Thanks Country Way!“

“First time visiting here, good customer service and great pizzas. I would recommend this place for delicious pizzas. Atmosphere is pretty good. Kaur is great employee and is very helpful. If you need to go this place and try, definitely go.“

“rikisima la comida es mi primer vez , y si me gusto mucho y buen atendimiento, dios les bendiga“

“I have not been dissapointed once with any menu item I have ordered. The best chimichangas I've ever had. The staff is friendly service is fast. I highly recommend this restaurant.I will definitely make this place my go to❤If you haven't been here yet you are missing out!“

“Where do I even begin, this diner has always had a special place in my heart. I say that because once I walked 3 hours to get here and back. Not only that but their breakfast special made it worth it. I’m also thankful that I get to take my dad here for brunch. My favorite breakfast item has to be the ‘love me tender’. Their chicken fried steak is to die for. Not only that but their burgers are especially delicious. I love the Jalapeño cheddar burger myself.Given the prices now of fast food now this Diner’s food is even more justifiable. Given the fact they’re very generous with their portions especially to regular customers which I have honor of becoming. I’d recommend this place in a jury of my peers. Or just in passing.“

“Ramen Arashi is easily one of my new favorite spots in Fremont. The food is legit. I ordered the Arashi ramen and it was super flavorful — rich broth without being too heavy, and the chashu was soft and tender. The noodles had the perfect chew, and the bowl came out piping hot, which I loved.

I also tried the karaage and it surprised me. Super crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and not greasy at all. Portion size was really generous too. Even the side toppings were fresh and well-seasoned.

Service was fast and friendly, and the prices are reasonable for the quality. I already want to go back and try more from the menu. If you’re anywhere near Fremont and craving ramen, this spot is a must-try.“

“非常好吃，超愛煉乳銀絲卷“

“Great service and absolutely delicious food! They have slightly higher prices than I’m used to, but not complaining, just giving heads up to anyone else new. You’ve gotta know your worth!
Probably the best tofu soup I’ve ever had from a restaurant. I hope to keep coming back.“

“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!“

“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 service. Great food“

“Pho Lan, a true family-run establishment in Fremont, delivers exactly what matters most in Vietnamese cuisine: spectacular, authentic flavor and generous value. While this isn't the spot for a luxurious, white-tablecloth experience, it is hands down the best place to find truly delicious pho and rice dishes in the area.

The primary reason to visit Pho Lan is the food, and they execute it flawlessly. The flavors here are deeply authentic, showcasing the care and tradition that only a family business dedicated to its craft can provide.

The Pho: The star of the show is, naturally, the pho. The broth is rich, complex, and clean—the hallmark of high-quality pho. It’s clear that the broth simmers for hours, resulting in a depth of flavor that many chain restaurants simply cannot replicate. Whether you choose a classic rare steak or brisket combination, the meat is fresh, and the portion size is substantial.

Beyond the Broth: While the pho is a must-try, the kitchen excels across the board. The rice dishes are equally noteworthy, featuring perfectly cooked meats and well-balanced marinades. If you're looking for Vietnamese food that tastes just like the dishes prepared in a traditional home, Pho Lan delivers.

Pho Lan offers excellent value. The portions are notably generous, ensuring you leave completely satisfied. In an age where many restaurants are shrinking servings, Pho Lan maintains a commitment to great portion size, making it a fantastic choice for lunch or dinner without breaking the bank.

It is important to manage expectations regarding the dining environment and service. As a dedicated, family-run operation, the entire focus is on efficiency and getting excellent food to your table quickly.

Ambiance & Service: This is not a restaurant built on trendy decor or overly solicitous service. The atmosphere is simple, casual, and functional. Service is efficient and straightforward, reflecting the priority of the kitchen over the front of house flair. If the quality of the food is your main metric, you will be thrilled. If you expect a high-end, polished dining experience, you might need to adjust your expectations. Pho Lan is an honest, no-frills location dedicated to its culinary mission.

Pho Lan is a Fremont treasure. It’s the kind of local spot that deserves strong community support because they consistently nail the most important element: the food.

For authentic flavors, generous portions, and truly delicious Vietnamese cuisine—from the masterful pho broth to the flavorful rice plates—Pho Lan is highly recommended. Come support this dedicated family business and enjoy some of the best Vietnamese food Fremont has to offer.

This was long due- will post pictures next time I visit them.“

“Very authentic Shanghainese style food. Spicy soup noodles can sure test your ability to stand hot food. Steamed and fried dumplings, and Xiao Long Bao are must-eat items. Appetizers like jellyfish and stewed spare rib chunks are highly recommended. Mr Song is the owner. He is ever friendly and efficient. This place is a rare find on East Bay.“

“Food was good and delivered in a timely manner“

“You should really try this place and support a fantastic local business!
We recently had this restaurant reserved for a family meal for 12 of us. We ordered everything family style, and a wide selection of dishes - fish, chicken, pork, beef, and vegetarian. Everything was fantastic! The lady who runs the restaurant is super friendly and the service is great. We have been disappointed with BKs Bistro this past year - (I'm guessing that they changed cooks) so I am super happy to have a new go-to place. We've eaten here twice this month and it has been great both times. For those of you who have lived in this area for many decades, you may remember the Pine Garden on Smith Street in Union City (it's now the Bird Haus Beer Garden which is good in a different way). The Pine Garden had the world's best Tomato Beef Chow Mein. EE Home Cookings version is very good but I'm still searching for that Pine Garden flavor. Lol.“

“My favorite taco truck has been my go to spot for over 12 years. They serve amazing al pastor that's always juicy and flavorful. My usual order is a regular burrito, taco with plenty of their delicious pickled carrots, grab a bag and pack a good amount in there they’re so good! The service is always quick, and the staff are consistently friendly and welcoming. It feels like home, and the flavor has stay perfect over all these years.“

“This Japanese tsukemen restaurant is really impressive. Whether it is the food, environment or service, it is full of sincerity. It is highly recommended!

First of all, their tsukemen are so delicious. The noodles are chewy and chewy, cooked just right, neither too soft nor too hard, and can absorb the rich dipping sauce perfectly. The soup has rich flavors, with a strong flavor of fish meat and tonkotsu. It is thick but not overly greasy, and every bite is full of concentrated delicious flavor. The accompanying barbecued pork meat is soft and tender, the fat is evenly distributed, and melts in your mouth, making the whole bowl of tsukemen even more delicious. In addition, the store also provides extra stock, which can be added with dipping sauce to turn into soup after eating the noodles. Such details make people feel the charm of authentic Japanese tsukemen.

The atmosphere inside the store is also quite great, the decoration is simple and full of Japanese style, and the lighting is warm and soft, creating a comfortable dining environment. The seats are well spaced so you won't feel crowded, and the background music is soft Japanese melodies, allowing you to relax and enjoy your food.

The most commendable thing is the attentive service of the clerk. From entering to ordering and serving, every detail is attentive. The clerk is kind and polite, and will also explain how to eat the meal, making people feel enthusiastic and professional. Overall, this restaurant not only has delicious tsukemen, but the overall dining experience is also very enjoyable. It is definitely worth a try and will make you want to come back again and again!“

“I had a really good experience at the curry pizza shop. The staff was friendly, the place smelled amazing, and the food came out quickly. The curry flavors on the pizza were delicious and blended perfectly with the cheese. It was something different in the best way. Overall, it was a great visit—good food, good service, and I left feeling happy and satisfied.“

“Stopped in on Saturday for dinner little before 6pm but it filled up pretty quick. We decided on ordering a beef dry hot pot and added potato chips, noodles, and lotus roots. Price is reasonable and portion size is huge. Three of us couldn't finish it and we still had about half for leftovers. Let me say that this is probably the best dry hot pot I've had from any restaurant, and I've been to three other restaurants. Watch out this place doesn't shy away from spicyness, level 3 was pretty hot. Service was good and quick. If this place was closer I would be visiting pretty often.“

“This place has probably the best fast food fried rice I have ever tasted. Their selection is great, price is reasonable for the amount of food you get and the food comes out pretty fast. The guy at the counter talking the orders is really nice“

“Rice Junky is such a pleasant surprise! The food is flavorful, fresh, and served in generous portions. Everything tastes well-balanced and satisfying. The staff are friendly and the service is quick, making it perfect for a casual meal or takeout. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to!“

“Yesterday, five of us went to this steakhouse for lunch, and the experience was absolutely wonderful. The restaurant had a clean and cozy atmosphere, making us feel relaxed right away. Each of our steaks was cooked to perfection — tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The side dishes and sauces complemented the meat perfectly. The service was equally impressive — attentive, friendly, and professional throughout. We never had to ask twice for anything. The only minor downside was the price, which was a bit high, but the quality of both food and service made it worthwhile. Overall, it was a nearly perfect dining experience. Highly recommended!“

“absolutely the best sushi I've had in a long time! the staff is super friendly, I will definitely be going back!“

“This is a great place with a delicious authentic Thai food compare to the flavors of the plates in Bangkok. The owners is very kind and has an excellent customer service .“

“Awsm n tasty food………….. :)“

“Special Noodle Restaurant is authentic and the food is delicious! The atmosphere is fun and has a good vibe. Although you order on your phone, the service is really good and delivered promptly. We ordered the Tomatoe Shrimp, side of eggplant, and the House Special Braised Pork Belly with Noodles. Delicious!“

“Bob Sang Restaurant is a hidden gem near the Tesla plant in Fremont. So far, I've tried the Galbitang, Kimchi Jigae, Bulgogi, Spicy Pork, and the latest is Seoul Style Bulgogi – really great with very tender marinated beef – tasty!
Very friendly service with the small side dishes happily refilled. This restaurant has found its way into my list of regulars.“

“Online ordering here was a breeze. Unlike other places where I feel pressured to order more or lack the convenience of online options, this spot made getting dim sum straightforward.

Food: The dim sum was warm and steamy, and the quality was solid. My only gripe was the limited menu—no shrimp rice rolls or fried shrimp crescents, which are some of my favorites. If you’re happy with staples like Shiu Mai or Har Gow, you’ll enjoy it.

Service: No issues. I picked up my order by name, and that was it.

Atmosphere: The setting is simple and casual, with a cafeteria-like vibe. It’s good for a laid-back meal but not for anything formal.

Overall: It’s a decent spot with a smaller menu. Two orders of dim sum were enough to satisfy me, and I’d come back if I was in the mood for a quick and easy dim sum fix.

Parking: There was so much parking here on a weekend morning.“

“Food is by far superb! A must try and check out the place. Food is C delicious you will love it and waiters are extra friendly“

“Excellent pizza, will try again. Pizza crust is authentic, masala is fresh.“

“I met the owner when I went in there the other day. He was very friendly. The entire staff are nice people. Good, interesting craft beers. Good food. I recommend the fish and chips. I would call it a neighborhood gem.“

“It’s kind of hidden, but it is a gem.
Oh my God😊 I just had the Chicken Shawarma pita with everything in it.. Amazing !!!
I had the baklava for dessert so fresh and crispy and perfectly made. If you’re looking for a Middle Eastern food, this is your place.“

“7.1/10 Sausage and Egg breakfast sandwich $9.50

A lot of bagel places have breakfast sandwiches and bagels. Their sandwiches are nothing special and overpriced like every other place

It's worth more to find a Noahs Bagels and get something with more in the bagel or sandwich for about the same price or a lil more

I wont be back here for any breakfast sandwich. They had a lot of options for shmears it probably would've been better just to get a bagel“
