50 Best Asian Fusion Restaurants near Menlo Park

“Went with a group of 10+ people for a weekday lunch in this restaurant. As a start, we ordered the popular Chinese tea smoked duck and the honey walnut shrimp among others (spicy dishes were mostly avoided as most of us are not comfortable with eating spicy stuff). Service provided was impeccable and the restaurant atmosphere was also nice and quiet. However, the quality of the dishes did not quite match the other two areas mentioned above. Besides the smoked duck dish that was great, the consensus among some of us at my table was that the dishes were a bit too salty and oily. Also, the portion sizes that came with the meat dishes being served were barely sufficient for our table of 8-9 people (did not get feedback from the other table occupants). Nevertheless, the manager prepared a special fish dish that was not found on the menu along with some cultural explanation associated with eating this fish dish which left a favorable impression among the group of us. Thus, this helped to bump up the rating for the standard of the food being served.“

“Never had Uyghur cuisine before, and I'm sorry I waited this long. Absolutely delicious. Ordered the samsas appetizer (one chicken, one beef). Flaky, buttery pastry goodness wrapped around well seasoned meats.
For my entree I went with the lagham noodles and they did not disappoint. The noodles were so good, I would eat a bowl of them alone. Great flavorful dish. Definitely will come back here every time I'm in town on business.“

“Had dinner here with 2 friends and we ordered the honeynut squash, chilled perilla noodles, scallion croissant, galbi, and crispy anchovy rice. Loved the perilla noodles - they were so light, refreshing, and tasted/smelled lightly like green tea. The galbi was so tender and flavorful. Also enjoyed the croissant - it was very crispy and the bottom 1/4 really was like a scallion pancake! I’d skip the rice next time, it wasn’t anything special. The soju cocktails are light, and my favorite was the natural oasis. Great spot for a date night or nice dinner but is on the pricier end.“

“This is an interesting place, primarily known for their omakase (I think), but we came for the tsukemen. The tsukemen was tasty and presented with a dipping sauce warmer set up. I gotta say the egg was perfectly cooked, but I don't know if we really needed the bamboo shoots and mushrooms given the dipping setup.

The ambience is good and there is a unique water and condiment setup that makes it standout, although it also crowds the table a bit. Nevertheless, it's unique and adds to the charm of the place.

Service was great and we chatted a lot with the lady who was covering our table. She gave us a lot of background on the work they did to get the current menu in place and tweaks they are planning going forward.

Overall, this place was a refreshing change of pace. Tsukemen is not that common, the ambience is different, and the service was super engaging. I will definitely go back to check on the evolving menu. Highly recommended.“

“This is the best pan-fried soup dumpling I’ve had in the Bay Area. The xiao long bao have thicker skins, and while I personally prefer the thinner ones from Din Tai Fung, these still have plenty of soup and aren’t bad. The dumplings, mushroom pork buns, chicken pan-fried dumplings, and spicy beef hotpot were all solid and tasty, though not particularly outstanding. The scallion bun is packed with scallions, making it a must-try for scallion lovers. Overall, the food was delicious, and I’ll definitely visit again.“

“The staff was incredibly friendly and the overall atmosphere was really great. The food was absolutely amazing, we ended up ordering a lot of different things because everything looked so delicious, and we were absolutely right about it. Definitely a must-try place.“

“actually an amazing place. HOW IS IT NOT MORE POPULAR.

the food is BOMB. the lady there is so sweet and helped me on a mandarin project freshman year of hs. love her so much. she is bilingual speaking both english and chinese 服务员可以说英文和中文。

the atmosphere is really chill but is still restaurant vibes it’s great for when i want to go with my friends

also SO AFFORDABLE (especially in comparison to the rest of downtown los altos)

WOULD RECOMMEND 1000%“

“Healthy options Good price“

“Pretty good. I've been to teriyaki madness a bunch in Las Vegas and I feel like there used to be more tofu in my junior bowl. I also think that the teriyaki sauce has been a bit watered down unfortunately. It's definitely more expensive than in Vegas.... Five more dollars a bowl.“

“Great find and will be back often … loved everything about this place“

“This place is so good and cheap (for downtown Palo Alto). It's a great place to grab a quick, delicious bite! The onigiris are soft and flavorful, and the karaage chicken is perfectly crispy. I love the selection of flavors, and some of my favorites include the poke salmon, spam and miso beef. I did try the strawberry cream puffs and they were nothing special. Other than that, you really can't go wrong :)“

“I love momos , fried corn , noodles & fried rice ...“

“This is the best Nepali food in the silicon valley. The food is 100% authentic and fresh. They had the best thali I've had in a long time. The Thali comes on a brass dish just like in Nepal.

The tea and kheer are very flavorful.

The service is impeccable and welcoming. The staff will chat with you if you wish and are so happy to share Nepali culture.

The music is what actual Nepali people listen to instead of just Nepali classical

I wish I could eat here every day“

“Momos are delicious. 10/10. You cannot go wrong with any vegetarian momos. Be it steamed, baked in a tandoor, or saucy (Jhol).

Breads are well-made to perfection. Curry was good, nothing spectacular. I look forward to trying other curries.

The dine in experience was excruciating. We were offered the pappadam immediately after we were seated. We waited 30 minutes for the momos (appetizer) to arrive and another 40 minutes after we finished momos for the main course (1 curry & 2 naan).

While we patiently waited 60+ minutes in total for our food, there were plenty of to go orders slinging out of kitchen every 2-3 minutes. I suspect this restaurant prefers takeout (they also offer discounts for takeout if I remember correctly).“

“Company party done well. Would return again.“

“yo comiendo con un servicio para este cliente por sus seguidores y un servicio“

“Needed something hot to hit the spot on a cold rainy day. The place was packed with students from Stanford. Ordering was easy and quick with the mobile service. The pad pad was steaming hot, which is something I always appreciate about quick service food and the Thai tea was delicious!

Pro tip: ask for the bean sprouts to be cooked with your pad thai!“

“Earlier this week on Sunday, I was craving some Korean fried Chicken, which I never had before. I did a search on Google and came across Bonchon in San Mateo. The first experience I had, I was not happy with my order because it was not accurate. I ordered an 8 piece, but only received a 4 piece and because it’s through a 3rd party nothing could be done. I decided on Monday I would order this time directly from the restaurant. Everything worked out, and I have to tell you even though my order was not right the first time? This did not take away from the quality of the food. I ordered the drumsticks extra crunch? No sauce, and the first time I ordered with fried rice, both were excellent. The seasoning, it was rich with flavor, and I have absolutely no complaints. The second time on Monday I ordered the same chicken a 4 piece, the corn with the mayonnaise, cheese and red pepper flakes, with a side of steamed rice. Everything was just perfect. I’m not kidding you it’s taking everything in me to control myself from ordering more today, and it’s just Tuesday. It’s just that good! Whoever the chefs are, you can taste the love in their cooking, it’s not just thrown together. There is Love in their food, and know this because my Mom’s food is just the same. Every bite is good. I don’t say these things lightly when it comes to restaurants. There’s not too many that impress me like this. All I can say is keep the love in your food, and don’t change the quality even if you have a million customers, don’t change your food. 5/5 for me, it’s a must try if you love fried chicken or Korean food. I don’t have pictures this time, maybe next time if I can upload I will. The chicken is so crunchy that even when it’s cold it’s still good and crunchy and not soggy. That is when you know food is good, when it gets cold and it’s just as good. Thank you so much for listening.“

“This place is NOT a 4.2. It deserves a 4.7 AT least.

The fried rice, fried chicken, and seasoned fries are all really good. Spicy chicken fried rice is incredible!

They serve everything super hot, makes the food taste even better. Highly recommend trying it, definitely surprised me with how delicious it was.“

“Why has it taken me so long to write a review of Noelani's? I first encountered this little slice of island paradise because I joined an ukulele meet-up group that would play here together pre-COVID. Lots of selection of Hawaiian staples and favorites, always served up in generous portions. My favorite is the bar menu, which is also extensive and fun - haven't tasted them all (yet), but what a great value for the glass full of fun they pour. Live island music is always a treat and everybody is friendly.“

“Many promotions going on, they have eat for under $10 and I was more than full. Also they have a gift card deal and more discounts when leaving a review that I am taking advantage of! This place is very well priced and you can tell everything is fresh. I saw the girl cutting up all the vegetables from scratch. Very honorable place, really liked the kake, similar to miso soup in my opinion“

“Chai Yo is a must visit for anyone in San Mateo craving authentic Thai flavors in a warm and inviting setting. The atmosphere is cozy and beautifully decorated, often described by guests as a hidden gem that offers a much more upscale interior than one might expect from the outside. Service is consistently praised for being friendly, attentive and welcoming, making it a fantastic spot for families or a quiet dinner with friends. The food is the true highlight, featuring large portions of expertly prepared dishes like the vibrant Pineapple Fried Rice, the flavorful Tom Kha Soup and the perfectly balanced Pad Thai. Other standout items include the succulent Chicken Satay with peanut sauce, the crispy and unique Spicy Catfish, and their impressive selection of vegetarian and vegan options, such as the Fried Mock Fish with garlic sauce. Whether you're enjoying a spicy curry or a refreshing Thai iced tea, Chai Yo delivers a high quality, 5-star dining experience with deep, authentic flavors that keep the local community coming back.“

“All their yakitoris were seasoned well and I loved both the salted and soy options. You order through a QR code using your phone so you won't have any issues with flagging down a waitress whether you're seated on the first or second floors.“

“The food is so good - I love the bowls and Ginger iced coffee! Thank you for the nice service too!“

“Sweet Maple, a chain brunch restaurant, is not only available in Palo Alto but also in Cupertino and San Francisco. Every weekend, there are long lines of people waiting.

For a period of time, I often went to Sweet Maple in PA for brunch. I tried many dishes but couldn't figure out what made it so special. My personal experience was that it was functional, and perhaps a workermanlike approach is what customers need!

Sometimes success doesn't require your plating to be as exquisite as Michelin-starred restaurants, because your competitors are IHOP and Denny's.

Functional, consistently functional, with a slightly better environment and appearance, can make you stand out.“

“Have you ever had a Scallion Pancake Taco before? 🥞🌮
Here’s your chance! 😋

@brochette_dumpling_and_grill is a must try spot with Asian eatery dishing up Amal plates including dumplings, skewers, and ramen. They have such an extensive menu and delicious yakitori that it’s a great place to hang out and have a good time with friends! Service is super friendly and we love the space!“

“非常好吃，超愛煉乳銀絲卷“

“Delicious Asian fusion breakfast and lunch“

“Good food. Note: they have a nigiri platter that can be choice of 7 pcs or omakase along with a roll. The portions are half the size of typical nigiri.
Chicken karage is very good, has good seasoning in the batter
Seafood ceviche was mainly shrimp.“

“The food was fresh and arrived quickly, and the staff were very friendly. Unfortunately, they were out of taro drinks, but the strawberry smoothie was delicious 🍓! Couldn’t ask for more. I’ll definitely visit again if I’m in the area. 😀“

“This restaurant is located right next to the famous Little Sichuan—healthy competition is always welcome. The interior feels newly renovated with a pleasant ambience, something I wish Little Sichuan would consider as well.

We ordered three dishes: Chongqing Spicy Chicken, Flavor Kitchen Cage Frog, and Dry-Baked Green Beans. Both the spicy chicken and the cage frog were quite good. The green beans were just okay; they were a bit stringy, and I’ve definitely had more tender versions elsewhere.

Be prepared to wait a bit for your food. It took about 15–20 minutes for our first dishes to arrive. This might actually be a good sign, since many Chinese restaurants rely heavily on pre-prepped ingredients—here it seems they cook more from scratch, which takes longer but tastes fresher.

Overall, we had a positive experience and will be adding this restaurant to our list for future visits.“

“My family and I love Sushirrito, and the creativity they bring in fusing amazing flavors together with sushi rolls the size of burritos 🌯! We recently dined at their newest location in Redwood City. The restaurant is clean, modern, and I loved the decor, esp the fish lanterns hanging from the ceilings. I got the Satori roll, and it’s the best - fish is fresh and it had the right amount of crunch and sauce to balance the tender hamachi. The matchagave latte was very refreshing, and had flavors mixed together that I’d never tasted before. Sumo crunch roll was perfect for the kids, esp. the red tempura flakes!🍣“

“Great ramen!!! Fast and friendly service!“

“Miss Subi is an absolute gem! The food is incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish feels thoughtfully crafted with a perfect balance of taste and quality ingredients. The ambiance is cozy and stylish, making it a great place to unwind and enjoy a delicious meal. The staff are welcoming, attentive, and truly enhance the overall experience. If you’re looking for amazing food and great vibes, Miss Subi is definitely a must-visit!“

“The boba was nice! We did order via the digital screen and the option to customize sugar/ice was not offered. Or did we miss it.
We were at the place 6:30 pm on Tuesday. The only customers. The order took a loooooong time.
It’s a peculiar thing that they still seem to have their Halloween decoration out :). It’s end of February:)

Plenty of parking at the plaza.“

“Best foods , great services 🥰“

“Stopped by for some vegan dinner. We had the vegan momo, tofu noodle soup and tofu curry. Food was good, the front desk guy was super friendly and helpful when we ordered. It is a take away place, but they have some tables if you want to eat there (we sat down for dinner)..

Vegetarian options: Vegan and vegetarian options“

“No parking. No place to eat. Sushi isn't meant to be delivered in my opinion. You have to order online. Their QRcode on the door is outdated and doesn't actually take your order. Price doesn't really make sense when there is no dine in option...“

“Will be back! Great food 😋😋😋“

“The food here was great. We ordered the stone plate dish which is very good. I also liked their kimchi.
Their hot sauce(gochujang) wasn't as spicy as expected. It was more on the sweeter side.
However, overall good experience.“

“Tandoori Pizza has the best pizza!!! Customer service is great and pizza's are delicious. Thank you for serving the community during this pandemic. We at St. Rose Hospital Emergency department appreciates you.“

“So good! my family and I shared a couple items. soup, cucumber salad, chicken sandwich and 2 types of dumplings. Everything was amazing! I'll definitely be back!“

“Among the best Japanese food in Mountain View/Los Altos/Palo Alto area.“

“Very good food great people. We have been coming here for a long time. The owner is awesome.“

“Exceptional service and very good food (quality, presentation, taste)!!!“

“Great experience here. Absolutely 5 stars the food and the service. Shout out to our server ELLIOTT very nice, he took really good care of us. He made sure we are taking good care and very attentive. I celebrate my birthday here. They came to sing me a happy birthday. Great place to celebrate a birthday with a group or family . I hope the manager is reading. Elliott was AWESOME!“

“Delicious sushi and dessert!“

“Getting into poke a little more and wanted to give this a shot. The quality ingredients and poke is super delicious! One of my new favorite go to spots for healthy tasty poke! 5 out of 5!“
