“Really great KBBQ spot. The meat was fresh and delicious, the sides were tasty, and the service was friendly and attentive. Everything came out quickly and we had a great experience. Would definitely come back.”
“Im visiting from AZ, went to the great mall to buy something real quick and wanted to have a quick lunch. Went here with no expectations, after all its just a quick grab restaurant inside a shopping mall. And, they delighted me with a pleasant surprise. We ordered Paneer biriyani and paneer manchurian. And OMG it was one of the best interms of making it taste like home but yummy. The balance is what's amazing..usually restaurant food is oily and heavy. This was so different, it was light, less oily, natural and very tasty. Food came super fast and was really really good. Id love to visit again when I am back in town.”
“I got the normal broth, medium spicy, and it was very flavorful, not too spicy. Only thing is the beef shrinks a lot in size after it’s cooked so keep that in mind when filling your bowl. It’s a bit pricy, I paid about $30 for my bowl, however it was a large portion”
“Came here on Thursday afternoon right when they opened and there was plenty of seating. The food came out pretty fast and love the clean decorations inside.
Service was amazing! The waitress would refill our water frequently and the food was great! The tofu was perfect and tasted really good. The noodle dish and the hangover hearty broth soup was very clean tasting and very good. The tables weren’t sticky either, seems like it’s kept pretty clean.
I would recommend this restaurant and will likely come back to try other dishes and get the signature fried tofu again!”
“On vacation and me and my dad decided to try outback. Food was great, and steak was cooked extremely well. Big thanks to our server T (I hope I spelt her name properly) she was amazing. Respectful, efficient and just overall great customer service. Thank you for making it an unforgettable dinner!!”

“Ume Tea is hands down one of my favorite spots! The drinks are always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced—not too sweet, just right. You can really tell they use high-quality ingredients. The menu has a great variety, so there’s always something new to try, and everything I’ve had so far has been amazing.
The staff are super friendly and efficient, even when it’s busy, and the atmosphere is clean and welcoming. It’s the kind of place you keep coming back to, whether you’re craving a classic milk tea or something more unique.
Highly recommend if you’re looking for top-tier boba and great service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“The food here was so good and service was really nice! So happy to have halal Uyghur cuisine in the area. I had the hand pulled cumin noodles and they were delicious! We also had the samsa which was great. Would definitely come back!”
“This is hands down one of the best North Indian buffet places in the Bay Area! With stylish interiors and a warm, inviting ambiance, this place is definitely not to be missed.
I visited during lunch with a few friends, and we were wowed by the variety of food options. The naan was served fresh, and everything we tried tasted really good.
I also catered food from them for my spouse’s 50th birthday party, and the food was a huge hit with all our guests. Everything was delivered on time and tasted perfect.
For appetizers, we ordered Dahi Bhalla, Achaari Paneer, and Gobi Manchurian. For the main course, we had Chana Masala, Butter Chicken, and Paneer Lababdar, along with Naan and Lachcha Paratha. We also ordered Moong Dal Halwa for dessert.
The Dahi Bhalla was a super hit! Several guests said it was hands down the best Dahi Bhalla they had ever had at a restaurant. All the other dishes were equally delicious and received lots of compliments.
Overall, whether you’re looking for a great North Indian buffet or catering for a party, I highly recommend this place. We will definitely be ordering from them again!”
“I may dream about their pork and crab roe xiaolongbao tonight. It was the best I'd ever had. Really plump and juicy, thin on wrappers but full of flavor. We also had a couple noodles: spicy beef noodle and spicy lamb noodle. Both were great but I think the lamb is more special. The service is hospitable. The only downside is that the man's bathroom was half broken and filthy unfortunately at the time of our visit, which kind of ruined the magical taste of the food itself. But, I think getting hung up on that would be misleading. I hope to come back and try other dishes!”
Outdoor Dining
“We booked Sugar Mama Desserts as an ice cream cart for our wedding in San Francisco. The whole process was very easy! We got to try a few flavors at a wedding expo with Wedgewood Weddings, and then Renisa (the owner) invited us to her brick and mortar store in Milpitas to try anything we wanted before we booked with her. She’s constantly changing the flavors available at the store, and made an effort to guarantee that we would get the ones we were especially excited about on the day of our wedding. Thank you for helping us add a nice touch to our special day!”
“I have lived in Milpitas for 3 1/2 years now, and only recently 'discovered' this hidden gem right at the end of the street I live on!!! Their menu is varied enough to have a great selection, but not so much that it's overwhelming. The minute you enter their diner, you're greeted with a warm Good Morning or Good Afternoon! The staff is very attentive and friendly; we felt like members of the family from our first visit! The food is priced fairly, which is hard to say about almost any other restaurant I've been in lately, and, it is delicious! There you have it...Welcoming, friendly staff, great menu selection, delicious food, priced fairly. A recipe for success, obviously since they've been there for over 20 years! Try it, you will not be disappointed!”
“The food was absolutely amazing! Everything was fresh, hot, and full of flavor. The vegetables and rotis were especially delicious. The guys did an excellent job preparing the food, and you can really taste the effort and love they put into it. Great food, great service, and a wonderful experience. Highly recommended! ❤️🔥”
“Really great sandwiches and pleasant staff here, they have a quiet little balcony area for you to enjoy a quick bite to eat here, there pastrami sandwiches are the best that i've had so far, I can't wait to try more from this place. (this company has an amazing back story to it )”
“The sushi here is seriously good - fresh ingredients, creative rolls you won’t find anywhere else. The Fuji Roll? Absolutely delicious. Prices are reasonable, and the staff is friendly, even if the vibe inside feels a bit cramped and could use a deeper clean. It’s a small spot, so I’d recommend takeout or delivery over dining in. For the quality of food though, it’s worth it.”

“We always come to this restaurant. The food is great, and it always arrives on time as scheduled. The service is excellent. The manager (Mayolo) is very friendly and always checks on customers to see if they need anything. His friendliness is one of the reasons we keep coming back for the nth time.”
“This place is so conveniently located. The staff was pleasant and quick. My food was hot and drink was delicious. The tacos were so dried out and stale. I hope that isn't normal. 4 Stars since the food was really good outside of the tacos. The tacos did not taste bad and they were even well prepared but the tortillas were stale and hard to chew. I was there very late at night so I would not hold this too harshly against them...”
“I find that all the price from different McDonald are different. This store has the cheapest price that they offered around the area compare to all other McDonald. No kiosk to order so you either order from your phone or in line. Wait can be long since there are always a lot of people.”
“Great restaurant for authentic Korean Food. The location was filled with patrons. The other dishes I saw looked delicious. I had the Beef Soup with Seaweed and Egg. Along with Purple Rice and other sides. The food was amazingly good. This was my 2nd visit.”
Takeout Restaurants
“Fantastic little poke spot in Milpitas. Friendliest owners I've ever met, and the toppings are fresh and delicious. You start by picking your base: sushi rice, brown rice, or greens, then add your proteins with variety such was spicy salmon, tuna, shrimp, tilapia, tuna salad, tofu, etc. You can choose a spice level, and additional toppings such as edamame, corn, seaweed salad (so good), macaroni salad, crab, etc. I love to add spicy mayo and yuzu ponzo, plus eel sauce. Do not pass this place up!”
“I stopped by Ume Tea and tried one of their fruit milk drinks, it’s the mango cloud and it was absolutely delicious! The drink was refreshing, creamy, and packed with real fruit pieces. The presentation was beautiful, and every layer blended perfectly together.
The shop itself is clean, cute, and welcoming, with a fun atmosphere that makes it a great place to grab a treat while shopping. It’s located in the Great Mall, so all the better. The staff was friendly, and my drink was made quickly despite how busy it was.
If you enjoy unique boba and fruit tea creations, Ume Tea is definitely worth a visit. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more flavors!
Highly recommend! 🧋💕🍑”

“We picked up food but sat at the restaurant for a bit waiting for our food - which came out super fast. It’s nice and spacious and the service is great! They were even playing the World Cup game if you’d like a place to enjoy it. Ordered the stone bibimbap which had the beautifully done veggies and meat with this delicious crispy rice. The side dishes were fresh and spiced to perfection. My daughter wanted to try the mandu which she loved! Definitely returning and soon! Five stars all the way!”

Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Great place for malatang style eating where you select your own food and portion. I love eating the vegetables there so I choose all the veggies I love to eat only. They also have a number of meat that are pretty good for your soup as well. It feels like you go shopping and they cook for you.
Once select your food and select your soup type that you want, they will cook it for you and bring it to your table. Medium spicy can be a bit spicy for some people so choose wisely.
Depends on how much you get but it could range from $15-22/person. I normally get about 1 pound of food which costs around $20. There is not much service since it’s pretty much self service.
The place is fairly clean and decent. Could be cleaner but not bad considering the traffic.”
“My family and I love chick fil a but the last couple of times there’s been little things off with our orders. Our fries are cold not fresh and hot . And today I just left the drive thru and I ordered a wrap with the avocado lime ranch 😋 just to get home and it NOT be in my order but it’s on my receipt 😭 so sad I love this meal with the dressing. Hopefully next time it’s better.”
“Dakao sandwiches has been around for over 30 years maybe 40. Decor is probably original. Anyway banh mi sandwiches are generally good. Expect to pay 7 dollars for a standard banh mi. They use a 10 inch narrow baguette. Filling is ok but uneven. Buy 2 and it's still less than what you would pay for a sandwich from a deli or sandwich shop.”
“Hansang Tofu – The Hidden Gem of Milpitas 💎🇰🇷
This place is almost hidden in plain sight, tucked right behind the McDonald’s everyone in Milpitas knows. It’s one of those true “if you know, you know” spots that locals swear by.
My girlfriend and I have been coming here for a while now, and the reason we keep coming back is simple: quality. Every dish that comes out of the kitchen is consistently fresh, flavorful, and made with care.
What We Ordered 🍽️
Special Combo #35 – Galbi & Seafood Tofu Soup (Medium Spicy)
The portions are on the smaller side, but honestly, they’re perfect for two people, just enough to leave you satisfied without feeling stuffed.
The Galbi is beautifully marinated and grilled to perfection with that irresistible sweet and savory balance and a hint of char.
The Seafood Tofu Soup is our favorite, clean, rich, and full of depth. It’s easily one of the best versions around.
Pairing these two together is a flavor explosion, comforting, savory, and perfectly balanced. Add in a scoop of rice and some kimchi, and it’s game over. 🔥
Mandu 🥟
Freshly fried to golden crispiness with a juicy pork filling inside. The vinegar-based dipping sauce cuts through the richness perfectly, it’s tangy, addictive, and keeps you reaching for more.
The Banchan (Side Dishes) 🥢
Hansang nails their banchan every single time. From the kimchi to the seasoned sprouts, everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully made. You know a Korean restaurant is good when even the side dishes shine.
If you’re looking for an authentic Korean spot that hasn’t blown up yet, this is it. Come now (or better yet, yesterday) before everyone else finds out. Huge thanks to the Hansang staff for always taking care of us and keeping the quality top-notch. 🙌🇰🇷”
“What you expect from the Tasty Pot chain. Exactly like the other locations. This one had a better dining area. Lots of room. Service was prompt and accommodating.”
Cheap Eats
“Great place to sit back and relax while enjoying a cup of delicious frozen yogurt. The place is clean and the employees are nice and friendly. Love the strawberry and cheesecake flavors. Great selection of toppings. If you haven’t tried it yet I recommend giving it a try.”
“Didn't take a photo, but I went to the Asian restaurant next to this place and later stopped in for a look. Decided to get/try one of their brown sugar coffees (#7).., It was refreshing and delicious. Super happy I went it. It's my favorite iced coffee place. And I'm that person that makes my own iced coffee whatever at home! Love this place!”
“Fantastic, really tasty Filipino baking goods. I ate some after leaving the store and came back for more! Really recommend it. The sweets were particularly great.
It's really a place to get the baking goods and go as opposed to eating there.
Pricing was very reasonable.”
“The Filipino deserts app has mold. Brought these to a party and thank God it was discovered by my guests at the party. Called to get a refund and below me off as a joke. Mind you my wife and I live one hour away and demanded that we bring back the product that was purchased back to them to inspect. I have been purchasing deserts from them for over 35 years and spend a lot of money. So sad and no accountability and glad no one got sick. I will be letting the San Bernardino health dept know of this crooked establishment not following State and court health codes.”
“It's all about the food!!! You don't come here for atmosphere! This feels like a McDonald's or any other fast food joint. The difference is the food is phenomenal!!!! There isn't a bad choice on the menu! This us all classic comfort food! Hardy and filling! If you leave unsatisfied or still hungry you must have a tape worm.”
“I’m glad that we have this restaurant opened tilled late night. We just left from the soccer game and looked for something for our supper. The food portion is large and tastes great. Good service.”

“If you like fresh tasty Asian food in an ultra clean, bright and cheery environment, you've found your new home at TK Noodle Milpitas. They reopened after being shut down by the covid lockdowns in a smaller newer building and it's better than ever. They have ame great food in a more cheerful clean bright friendly environment. I love pasta and noodles and their wide noodles are the best anywhere in the world, EVER!”
“Excellent food, taste is so authentic. Freshly made. Customer service is very friendly and accommodative. We had Chicken 65, Medu Vada, Dosa Varieties, Biriyani, parathas, Chilli chicken, uthappam, Poori etc. Highly recommend this restaurant, for kids and Adults. I would definitely visit often. Pricing very nominal.”

“I first met the owner just prior to their official opening. He stated that they would be having fresh, homemade food there; especially and finally, breakfast tacos as well. After awaiting for them to open, I came back and ordered 1 carne asada taco. Afterall; that is the starting point to what can lead to a great menu. Yes it certainly was delicious. I chose to have only one topping as to get the true flavor of the meat. It was juicy and very flavorful. My second and last time I visited was a couple of days prior to this writing. This time I ordered the California Burrito and two Breakfast Tacos. Both of which not only met my expectations, but surpassed it. The owner even threw in a bonus item, a Breakfast Quesadilla. That was the favorite item of my lunch that day. I always do what I can to go out and support small, independent businesses, especially in my own community. Los Jefes Taqueria is a definite place to try out and then you will be back when craving that taco or burrito.”
“I do not like Chinese food - usually too oily. But THIS food is AWESOME for me! Especially the hot sour soup (perfect tang) and the Fried rice (light and fluffy, delicious flavor). Also great was the orange chicken (not too sweet) and he sauce on the broccoli was so buttery(?). I WILL order again. Union City.”

“Great place to get a meal, whether you need a shopping break or are just in the area.
Well sized portions. Not too expensive.
I tried the saucy asian wrap with tofu. Very flavorful, gochujang aioli and spanish rice were the highlights. Seasoning was perfect.
Tortilla chips need more salt though.”
“If you are craving authentic South Indian food, Dosa Confession in Milpitas is definitely a place you must visit! ❤️
I absolutely loved the food, especially the Muntamasala, Podi Idly with sambar, Bangalore Puddina Masala Dosa, and the Chala Punugulu and Mirchi bijji. Everything was so flavorful and delicious! The podis were absolutely amazing—truly one of my favorite parts of the meal. 😍
The food brought back so many memories of India. If you are from the South Indian or Telugu community and are missing authentic Indian flavors, this is definitely a place to try. 🇮🇳❤️
I enjoyed everything so much that I will definitely be visiting again. Highly recommend “Dosa Confessions” to everyone who loves South Indian food!
If you miss India and Indian food, just go there—you won’t be disappointed! 😋❤️”
“I recently visited Taishoken Ramen and had an enjoyable dining experience overall. We ordered the regular ramen, the spicy ramen, and the chicken karaage.
The regular ramen was the standout of the meal. The broth was rich, well-balanced, and full of flavor, making it both comforting and satisfying. Every component complemented each other well, and it was a bowl I would gladly order again. The spicy ramen, however, fell a bit short of my expectations. While it certainly delivered on the spice level, the heat overwhelmed the broth, making it difficult to appreciate the depth of its flavor. I would have preferred a better balance between the spice and the overall taste of the ramen. The chicken karaage was excellent. It was perfectly crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, and made for a great appetizer alongside the ramen.
I had a positive experience and would happily return. Although the spicy ramen wasn’t my favorite, the quality of the regular ramen, the delicious karaage, and the welcoming atmosphere made the visit worthwhile. Next time, I’m looking forward to trying the signature dipping ramen, which I’ve heard is one of Taishoken’s specialties.”
“Had a great experience with pizza guys Milpitas today. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful in helping us place an order. Gluten free pizza available! They went above and beyond to make sure we had a good dinner. Excellent customer service and the pizza was good too.”
“I was visiting the Great Mall in Milpitas today and found this neat coffee kiosk in the mall. I ordered a Nu-Brew Cold Brew Coffee which is Cold Brew with milk and Nutella. This was absolutely amazing. Great mix of flavor with the coffee. They have a very interesting menu of which I want to try some of the other iced coffees. Definitely going to be back.”
