“Loved our dinner at Nute’s! The gyoza appetizer was incredible, and all the noodle dishes were delicious. The waiter was fast, attentive, and honestly impressive to watch given he was the only waiter. We felt like we were back in Japan with the small tables, paper lanterns, and cozy vibe. Only thing to know is the wait was quite long due to the limited seating- next time we’ll put our name on their list (paper, not yelp) and then get a drink somewhere. Can’t wait to come back and try some of the other noodles!“
“Fantastic dumplings. We had Dan Dan Noodles, Mission Chicken Pot Stickers (which were yummy!), Tempura Mushrooms, Sichuan Mala Pork Soup Dumplings XLB, Sichuan Dumplings in red oil, Five Spice Tempura Silken Tofu. I usually don't like spicy food but the spice level was manageable.“
“In a nutshell; despite how busy it was, line rather went by quickly, food is top tier, it is cafeteria style eatery but the upon and tempura is worth it.Busy Saturday lunch hour, but I'd say it took about 8-15 mins of being in line before we got to give our order. Food was prepped. as you move along down the line and just grab a few tempura of various food that you fancy, head at the end of the line and just Pay as your food will be good to go. Had to sit outside and see how long the line has gotten. Few birds may surround you and it seemed that the couple on the next table had the unfortunate incident of a bird do a doo-doo on their clothing but seemed like a rare occurrence as it didn't seem to be common as we just enjoyed our meal outside for quite some time with no incident, so I guess just a word of caution. The udon is great regardless of which one you pick and the tempura's crispy crunchy delicious. Overall if you happen to swing by the mall and want good affordable Japanese udon/tempura then this is a place to visit.“
“I went there for Friday night dinner. It was not I like how they decorate the restaurant. Ek give me a feeling like I’m in a massage spa.The service was good too. I went to the toilet they sanitize and clean the restroom well. I had how special with sorted meats. the noodles was amazing. the taste was not spicy at all. the sauces for noodles are going well with meat too.“
“This Sichuan restaurant is a gem! The dry pot shredded cabbage is incredibly tasty, and the spicy hot pot with fresh fish slices is simply outstanding. The texture of the fresh fish fillets is so amazing. If you're a fan of Sichuan cuisine, this place is a must-try!“
“I crave their tofu banh mi! Tonight I rolled in just minutes before closing and they were so gracious and kind, not making me feel at all guilty for ordering food so late… and it was made extra delicious! We are lucky to have them in HMB ✨“
“We stumbled upon this awesome spot in San Francisco. A Vietnamese joint that's all about that comfy, family-style vibe. Lot of unique dishes. great food, reasonable prices, and fast service. I order the crispy fried egg noodle with tofu. I was clean and tasty, just the way I like it. My friend got the grilled pork skewers with rice noodle. and it was full of flavor, our first time trying that dish. Definitely planning to go back and try more of their food!“
“Came here for a casual Saturday lunch. Place was full of patrons but we got seated rather quickly. Place looks newly remodeled, clean and comfortable. Servers were attentive, helpful and polite. Prices are reasonable. Quantity and quality of food is quite good. Every dish was flavorful, hot and pleasing to both the eyes and the palette. Bathrooms were clean, dry, and supplies were plentiful. Do recommend and I will be back.“
“The space was much larger than I anticipated so plenty of room to spread out. Love the Friday hours where they don't close after lunch so I don't have to hurry to get there. Staff was attentive and super friendly and we really enjoyed the food. If, like us, you just want them to bring the food - order at once and they bring everything when it is ready. Since some of the items come to the table super hot this allows some time to cool down. If you want things more in courses, stagger your order. We enjoyed a Foggy Day IPA, the Xiao Long Bao (probably my fav), Pan-fried Pork Buns (wait, this might be my fav), and Chicken with Shiitake Mushroom Dumpling. So fun to share and can't wait to go back and try more. I would like to know who thought Country and Western was the right choice of tunes to set the stage.“
“I visited this location on a weeknight around 8pm, primarily because it was open a bit later than most places and seemed to be reasonably priced. We called ahead to place our orders, which were quickly ready in about 15 minutes! I got the beef stew noodles, which wasn't anything amazing to write home about, but the portions of meat, veggies, noodles at it's price (~$8) was very reasonable and affordable (relatively speaking in San Francisco). Overall the menu doesn't have anything "unique", but I think this is a great option for a busy weeknight when you just want to pick up something quick and filling, but also have comforting meal. The staff was super nice and prompt in the pick up process! I would definitely visit again!“
“My in laws were visiting, so we decided to come here for lunch. It was pretty packed when we arrived but luckily they had a big table for the 5 of us near the register. Apparently they are known for their won tons and egg noodles so my husband ordered #7 Braised Duck Leg with Won Ton Thick Egg Noodle (with soup on the side). He said it was really tasty, especially dipping everything in the soup. I ordered the #35 Satay Beef Ho Fun Soup. The noodles were probably overcooked because they fell apart. The flavor of the satay couldn't have been more tastier. This is a very clean hole in the wall with very friendly staff.“
“You have your own area of dining separated by glass wall. Staffs are very friendly and helpful. Manager Mei ( May ) particularly attentive we like her very much. Even it is a Japanese type BBQ restaurant the kitchen is separated on one side you won't get smelly after eating there. We went there twice just to make sure they are consistent. The only thing I may complain is just the parking sometime it's hard to find parking.“
“Between their 2,169 reviews (and counting) and the fact that this is the third Ben Tre that I've written about, it'd be fair to say that whatever I write isn't exactly going to be groundbreaking. Really, what are the odds it would be anything that hasn't already been said before? And yet...here we are. Not because I think what I have to add is so important, but because I just think Ben Tre is just awesome! Granted, nothing that I've had is the best that I've had before, but it'd be hard to find something as consistently good across multiple trips and multiple locations as what Ben Tre has to offer! Compared to their spot in Millbrae (and their now-shuttered location in San Mateo), this Ben Tre looks pretty generic. However, what it lacks in trendy or eye-catching decor, Ben Tre makes up for in the basic fact that it is super clean. Also, and most importantly, their all too familiar menu is full of the same tried and true favorites that all of their locations have to offer - a bunch of appetizers, including less common dishes like Banh Xeo (Vietnamese crepe) and fried quail, pho, various noodle soups, bun/vermicelli bowls, rice plates (including their awesome yellow rice), claypots, vegetarian dishes, soups, salads, and garlic noodles. In all, their menu has something for just about every taste! -- (#1) BEN TRE APPETIZER COMBINATION - Imperial Roll, Shrimp Roll, Grilled Pork Meatball, Sugarcane & Crispy Shrimp, Rice Vermicelli, and Lettuce...$19.95 ( I've long wanted to try this, so I was stoked when my friend suggested splitting an order. Of the bunch, I thought the imperial was the best followed closely by the pork meatball. Honestly, though, nothing about this was bad. -- (#28) CA RI GA - Chicken Curry Noodle Soup...$17.95 ( Not quite as good as the one I used to always get in Millbrae, but still pretty solid. While the curry isn't as rich and robust (it's a bit thin), the chunks of chicken are both big and juicy and the noodles have a nice bite to them. -- (#18) PHO TAI CHIN - Beef Noodle Soup with Rare Beef & Well Done Brisket...$16.95 ( Such a basic dish, I know, but still great! The portion is fairly generous, the noodles are tender, and there's a good meat to noodle ratio. The broth is the best part, though (rich, not fatty), so it's hard to go wrong with any of their pho choices. Also, even though I haven't tried them at this Ben Tre, I would assume that some of my favorites at their Millbrae location are just as good here, like their Bun Rieu (Tomato & Crab Pho), Pho Thit/Tom Nuong (BBQ Pork, Beef, or Shrimp with Bowl of Pho Noodle Soup), and their Ben Tre Com Vang & Thit Dac Biet (Yellow Rice with BBQ Pork or BBQ Beef). And that's without even mentioning some of the other dishes on the menu that have caught my eye, such as their Bo Buc Lac (Shaking Beef) and Com Vang Tay Cam (House Special Yellow Rice in Claypot). After all, why would I have any reason to doubt the OG location of the Ben Tre/Gao Vietnamese empire?“
“We’ve been coming to this restaurant for years, and it never fails to impress. The delicious Thai cuisine is a culinary delight, and the staff's kindness enhances the overall experience. The yellow curry is my absolute favorite – a flavorful masterpiece. Five stars without a doubt!“
“I went here with my friend around Tuesday at noon and this place was packed! There was only one poor guy manning the entire front and he was definitely overwhelmed. This definitely echoed my experience when I went to White Elephant Thai restaurant (see my review and as this is a sister restaurant, I can't say that I'm surprised. I do feel bad for the servwe as he was waiting on tables, taking orders, and also preparing orders for delivery services too! When it comes to the food, it was definitely great that it was the sister restaurant of White Elephant because the quality, great portion sizes, and authentic flavor is all still there! We ordered the crab fried rice, pad see ew with beef, pad Thai with chicken, and another pad Thai with beef (we were planning dinner to go too hehe). The food came out pretty quick and had tons of flavor. Loved the quality and portions of the food here. As for ambiance, the restaurant is pretty small and has some cool murals on the two main walls. It was pretty packed and people were even waiting outside during this prime weekday lunchtime. As for parking, there is street parking so could be hit or miss! Overall, will definitely come back but would suggest more help for the staff in the front for better efficiency!“
“Had A1 wonton noodle for breakfast. Wonton was plump and juicy. They added green onion and chives. Soup is fragrant with the smell of 大地魚。 They definitely don’t skimp out on ingredients. The breakfast special also came with soy milk. The soy milk had froth in the top. I guess they make it fresh in house.They also have a sign up that says $1 milk tea but I didn’t order it.I look forward bringing my kids here for late afternoon snacks.Sorry, I couldn’t take a pic of my wonton noodle because it went down my belly already.“
“When you enter, it feels like a very traditional ramen shop with a nice atmosphere?The food choices and prices are good, and the service is available in both Chinese and English, so fellow compatriots don’t have to worry about blind spots when entering...Nice dining environment, not noisyVegetarian options: Support lacto-ovo-proteinKid-friendliness: The table next door is here. I have been here before the wedding. Today I think I am revisiting the old place. I brought back a pair of children.“
“Just discovered this place while walking the dog and thought I’d give it a shot. Awesome discovery! Very friendly greeter who prepared my meal immediately while I’m sure he had other online orders to fulfill. Got the pork katsu and rice - crispy breading, great flavor, a LOT of food! I highly recommend Ginto!“
“Delicious Taiwanese food! The crab soup dumpling is very fresh and the wrapper is nice and thin. The deep fried chicken was also so good and reminded me of Taiwan. The broccoli was disappointing because it wasn’t what I was expecting though.“
“Tang bar is a grab in a bowl to add to your dish kind of food establishment. You grab ingredients, and they charge by the pound prior to adding it to a soup base or stir fry. I've only ever gotten the soup base, though, and have tried a few different flavors from their spicest to their most mild, and I've enjoyed them all. The ingredients all feel fresh, and every broth is extremely flavorful.I would give this place close to 5 stars every time. However, on my last visit with a few friends and my significant other, Tang bar somehow mixed our two ingredients bowls up.I got the spicest flavor broth, and my friends got the pickled mild spice. The only remedy Tang Bar did was to drain the soup and place the ingredients in the original soup base. This caused my friends ingredients to be too spicy for them to eat, and my veggies were wilted and meat too chewy because of the double boiling of the ingredients. This also caused us to have to wait even longer for our food, up to about another 20 to 25 minutes.Other than that mess up, it would be 5 stars all around the board, but because of this slip up, I would give Tang bar closer to 4.5 stars rounded down due to Google rating system.Vegetarian options: Pick your own ingredients, so it's easy to choose all vegetarian options.Parking: Parking lot is shared between all of Stonestown Mall parking, so depending on when you go and how far you want to walk will determine if there is parking or not.“
“The waiters were very attentive and polite. Suggested dishes that we should try. The food was absolutely delicious and fresh. Best noodle house in MilbreaParking: Finding parking is difficult as the restaurant is on a small street. You need to find parking somewhat further away and walk to the establishment.“
“Mandoo is the bomb.. there is not alot of seating so make sure to secure a seat before you order! The jajang rice is what we got. The sauce was not alot tbh, but the egg on top made it just fine!! They give you extra soup to enjoy the food even better!!!“
“This is a great place to go with a large group and order several dishes to share family style. All the food came out pretty fast, and everything we ordered was delicious, especially the chili fried chicken and fish fillets in hot chili oil.They have a pretty efficient system at this restaurant. Like many places, you scan a QR code to view the menu and order. However, instead of paying online, they still bring you a physical check and have you pay in person.I was impressed by this place and recommend it to anyone wanting good, authentic Sichuan food.“
“Quality food. However very limited vegetarian options. Spring rolls and the dry noodles (pictured) are the only vegetarian dishes. The dry noodles have no sauce or seasoning. Was just boiled vegetables and noodles! I believe the mushrooms are supposed to impart the flavor. It was hard to eat. They also didnt have any house table sauces.One star less for the vegetarians. Vegetarians should skip this place. Otherwise food quality is good ?“
“Went back again. Tried:- Honey Walnut Shrimp- Dry Fried Beef Chow Fun- Salt & Pepper Pork Chops- Egg Tofu, Bean Curd, Bamboo Pith and Greens- Complimentary Lemon Chicken because we spent over $60 not including lunch specialsHappy with the choices!“
“Popular Vietnamese Noodle soup with a choice of noodles, Beef and rice dishes. The tofu salad is very refreshing.Vegetarian options: The tofu salad is greatParking: It's hard to find a spot in this neighborhood. Take the Muni if you can, or you may have to circle and/or walk several blocks from a parking spot.Kid-friendliness: Nice atmosphere for kids and Noodle soup is pretty easy.“
“Don't know what to eat, but want a quick and delicious meal?Paik's Noodle is such a solid option. Food is good. Portions are generous. My favorite would have to be their classic Jajangmyeon/Black Bean Noodle. The noodles are nice and QQ. The sauce is well seasoned and flavorful. It has a unique flavor from the fried black bean paste. Generous sauce portion too. I always have leftovers and add it on a bed of hot rice the next day. Love that they give you a side of pickled radish as a palate cleanser. Their jjampong and tangsuyuk is pretty good too.Staff are nice. Food comes out pretty quickly. Only thing to keep in mind is that the food court can get really busy during peak times making it hard to find a seat. Overall, 4/5.“
“I've been wanting to try this place and so finally got to try it with my husband on a Friday night. No wait got seated right away. We ordered: #6: Half ja-jang myeon/half jjam bbong - I've never had jjam bbong so I got the combo and I didn't see the chili sign coz mannn that was spicy! But I love the flavor. I actually preferred it than ja-jang myeon Fried rice with spam, kimchi - not spicy and has enough flavor Soy garlic chicken - it was dry, even the sauce couldn't really save the dryness. Flavor is good but wish it wasn't dry. Good portions and affordable for Korean food.“
“Since turtle tower closed I find that this place is the closest thing to pho ga. The restaurant is nice and clean. The service is a hit or miss because the servers are always impatient but I can let that slide. But their pho ga is really not bad based that is a Chinese run việt restaurant so kudos to them. I only come here for the pho ga because it's the closest to turtle tower.“
“Whenever visiting San Fransisco, i hv always made time to come here. Our family really love all the food.The bbq porkchop, pho, fresh spring rolls, fried rolls...The food portion is large for our SEA stomach so we usually order 1 main and 1 appetiser for 3 persons.This restaurant is located 2-3 mins walk frm Dylan Boutique hotel.“
“Best pumpkin curry I've ever had. The kabocha was cooked perfectly. Service was fast and friendly. A very enjoyable experience.Vegetarian options: I had pumpkin curry but both daughters are vegetarian and were very happy with the selection. It was all delicious.“
“The food at Oasis is solid. We came in for lunch at 11:30am on a Tuesday with no wait. We were the first ones there. The food came out fast. The restaurant was too clean for a Vietnamese noodle restaurant. Our waiter knew the menu well and was competent. I had their #2 pho dac biet with egg noodles $14.45. The broth could be better and the noodles easily broke apart. Still good though. The satay beef noodles $16 were better. It had a very good broth. As for the shrimp garlic noodles $14.45, it was overly salty with a good garlic taste. This was not bad. Good job chef and waiter at Oasis.“
