45 Best Asian Fusion Restaurants near San Pablo

“The food is very tasty fast service. They give you a lot of food for the price. I usually buy the biggest plate. I think it's three items with your choice of rice and noodles, it brings 1 egg roll or 2 pot stickers. I usually have leftovers for the next day. The prices are good. I think it's like $14 for the biggest plate.“

“A Humble Plea: Bring Tanya Back!

We’ve been ordering from Hawking Bird for the last year - it’s our go-to spot for delicious fried chicken and flavorful garlic noodles. Our standard order: the Tanya Special. This ingenious dish focused on my favorite Hawking Bird offerings with none of the fluff. Imagine my disappointment when I learned this special was removed from the menu! Yes, you can alter the fried chicken bowl (sub noodles, remove the cucumber/cilantro/mint) but Tanya was generous, providing a larger portion size that cannot be recreated. Times are tough, and Miss Tanya provided some relief.

My loyalty to Hawking Bird has not wavered, I’m placing an order right now - but please consider bringing this special back!“

“Fantastic food and amazing service!!“

“Very friendly owner. Offered 5% discount on cash payments. We ordered 3 dishes. Kaokao chicken, char siu over rice, and beef brisket noodle soup. The star of the meal was the char siu over rice. We’ll reorder that for sure. The beef brisket’s soup was soy sauce forward, my husband enjoyed the noodle but it was a tad too soft for me. The kaokao chicken is very well cooked, moist chicken, but it was a confused dish imo, so it is not a dish we would reorder. Overall good tasting food, we’d come back for the char siu. The restaurant was very smokey, and it stuck to my body and clothes all day after. So I would not come here before going anywhere important, so you’ll smell of bbq.“

“a MUST TRY for delicious roti and veg friendly options ! i ordered the roti breakfast, sweet oakland (roti w fruit and coconut ice cream), and a vietnamese iced coffee and all three was 10/10s - though i would recommend coming with a friend or partner to split the very generous portions.

i was so surprised at how empty the place was during peak lunch hour on a weekday but im guessing they get most of their inflow on the weekends; definitely recommend stopping by any day of the week for a bright, warm, sweet or savory, filling meal.“

“I had a belly burrito add shrimp✊🏽💯 it was🔥🔥couldnt finish it #fakefatguy nowadays😅socially distant👍🏽in door seating as well as outdoor great food gud service #getchusum“

“My food was absolutely amazing I’m from Rochester New York“

“I finally decided to give Saucey Asian a try, and it definitely lived up to the hype!

The food came out fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. Every dish we ordered was well-seasoned, the portions were generous, and you can tell they don’t skimp on quality. It’s one of those places where everything on the table makes you want “just one more bite.”

The atmosphere was casual, fun, and perfect for grabbing dinner with friends or family. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal.

If you’re in the Emeryville area and craving flavorful Asian comfort food, I definitely recommend checking this spot out. Great food, generous portions, and a great overall experience. I’ll definitely be back!“

“The meat quality is pretty good! Although there was a big party right before us so we had to wait for quite a bit after seated for food to be served, the dining experience was satisfying. I got the yuzu soup base, was quite refreshing. Would recommend to come early (around or before 6 pm) to avoid long waiting time.“

“The food is outstanding!!“

“I drove one hour here from the south bay to have the authentic jja jang noodles, Jjambong and Tangsuyuk. This was 4th time to visit here. Never disappointed! If you are taste the real Korean style Chinese food, this is the right place!!
Best Jjambong!!“

“service and quality are top notch“

“The vegetarian food was great! Love the potatoes from Szechuan!“

“Atmosphere, customer service, prices and the freaking food is amazing 😍. Highest rated casual dining from Hayward to Vallejo! For good reason! This is a must if in the area. We will be back!“

“The food was soo delicious!! 10/10 recommend the Yellow Curry with Chicken. Gorgeous ambiance and amazing service. The Thai tea was also delicious. My first time here and would definitely recommend this place. Great price too! The Curry comes with rice also!“

“Tried their Banh Mi sandwich instead of the Pho this time. Got the combo with chicken, beef, and pork. I was thinking it'd be the cold cuts, but nahhhh it's real chicken, beef, and pork loaded inside which was a lovely change to try. I actually enjoyed it with the triple meats! However, wayyyyy too much mayo and does not include Pate, you have to order Pate as an extra add-on, but only $1 extra. Overall, great sandwich but wayyyy too much mayo. I'd ask for light mayo next time! Extremely untraditional combo banh mi sandwich, but always nice to try something new!“

“Tigon is excellent, above par, a hidden gem on San Pablo. I've probably been here 5-6 times now with my fiance. She gets the same thing every time: Catfish Sweet and Sour Soup and she swears it gets better every single time. On the other hand, I try something new every time because each dish I've had has been better than the last. Catfish Claypot, Pho, and Papaya Salad are all big hitters.“

“Fresh, innovative ingredients and flavor pairings led to my very happy tummy. Generous portions too!“

“While they're known for their matcha smoothies, they also have some great food options such as their pork belly rice and their croffle sandwiches.

Note that the food can take a while to make as most people order drinks, but it is prepared with much care.

There are a few dining tables inside, but there are also picnic benches outside. Ordering is done on a kiosk and they provide trays for the compostable tableware.“

“This was my first time ordering food to pickup from this digital food court place in Emeryville.. a bit odd but easy and straight forward.
And man oh man was Lotus and Lime a very pleasant surprise at midnight on a Friday!
This food was amazing! Absolutely far exceeded my expectations for a late night eat.. honestly felt like I was eating gourmet at fast food prices.
The wagyu beef is mouth watering delicious 🤤
There was a nice little personalized note imparting appreciation and love from the kitchen which after receiving my freshly prepared food from a digital locker was a very nice piece of human connection. 10/10 will definitely be back for more🌟“

“Outstanding Chinese vegetarian/vegan food! Every dish we've had has been very tasty, and the portions are sizeable. Owner and staff are super friendly and welcoming. The patio area in the back accommodates calm dogs and larger groups, nothing fancy but it works. Our go-to for healthy Chinese take out and dine in.“

“Food was fresh! Service was great. The tables were clean!“

“Their onigiri is really good! I’m not always in the mood for spam, but they have plenty of options without spam too, and I haven’t had anything I haven’t liked yet. They partner with several delivery services and their food always is packed well and is ready quickly for the drivers. Definitely recommend!“

“Food is great ! Service is so so . They did forget a dish and were a bit slow even after the happy hour rush ended . They brought the bill before asking whether we wanted dessert ( we did ) this time and the last time we came . Still I’d go back as the food is too good!“

“Kotobuki is our go to sushi spot. We eat there regularly, eat in and take away. The sushi is always fresh and very good -- sashimi & rolls. My kids like the generous combo boxes. They have a great variety of rolls, Ramen, and plated meals. The staff is friendly and service is excellent! A plus, we can watch a sporting event there. ;)“

“Will miss the place“

“We came here for an early dinner before a show at The Freight. Service was quick and friendly. We had the pork belly and beef sausage curry rice bowls for only $9.99 each. Both were very tasty. The server offered extra sauce and rice if we needed it, but the basic serving was filling enough for us. We'll be back to try some of their other dishes.“

“Cute location in Northbrae, friendly and family oriented location. Sometimes you're lucky and find parking in front, don't park at the grocery store across the street and walk over. The wait for a table is never long, I usually come in dinner on a weekday so there's no wait. Weekend dinners can be a 10-20 min wait, better than many Japanese restaurants. The wait for your order is short too, the ost I've waited was a little less than 15 min. The food is great, the portion is great, the prices are fair, you can be happy with several appetizers to save money. A mixed vegetable tempura plate and house salad is filling. Everything is a win here, haven't had a bad meal yet.“

“A good place to taste Korean and Japanese cuisine with a twist.“

“Yummy Chinese food! Potstickers are made fresh

Vegetarian options: vegetarian options available

Dietary restrictions: vegetarian options available, but it is an asian restaurant so dont expect a whole bunch of options for dietary restrictions like Kosher, vegan, nut free etc

Parking: located on the corner of a street, a couple of parking spots available

Kid-friendliness: kid friendly but a lot of spicy dishes

Wheelchair accessibility: not wheelchair accessible, need to go up stairs“

“LOVE THIS PLACE!! The bread tears up the roof of my mouth in the best way and the fried taro in their veggie banh mi is delightful. One time they put too many jalapenos in my sandwich but honestly i prefer that to not enough spice level. Black sesame coffee is great too, although expensive. Perfect sunny day lunch spot.“

“Amazing food and service. Ambiance on point as well“

“Food was great and drinks was great.“

“Very clean, excellent menu with very creative rolls. The nigiri 🍣 sushi is fresh and the best I’ve had to date. Personable, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Japanese beers are on point, cold and priced right. This a “locals favorite” which feels very welcoming and the freshness will be bringing me back. Cheers!“

“If you blink you will miss this place as you drive by. Nice neighborhood family run restuu. Generous portions on the take out. Food was fresh and well prepared. Fresh ingredients.

Pro tip: there is public parking just past the building before the traffic light. Makes it easy to get in and out.“

“Came in here for a late night meal. I wasn’t expecting the inside to look so fancy haha. Great atmosphere and the waiter was really friendly despite the hour. The clear noodle soup was easy on the stomach yet extremely flavorful — lots of white pepper and other seasonings so I didn’t need to use any additional sauces. Tons of noodles and delicious chicken as well. It was exactly what I needed after a long day :)“

“On campus and easy eats. They’re quick and the food is good. The chicken is real rotisserie. I got the Japanese curry chicken and rice. Seating does get crowded with all the students around but is not impossible to find. You might just need to go outside“

“Bua Luang is hands down the BEST Thai restaurant in the entire Bay Area, not just in Albany! I have been enjoying Thai cuisine all around the Bay for over 25 years. My family and I have Thai food at least 2-3 times a week, so we have tried many (and I mean MANY) Thai restaurants over the decades, and without a doubt we all agree that Bua Luang offers the freshest, tastiest, and most delicately prepared Thai cuisine of all. Every dish is packed with the freshest ingredients. The flavors and textures are amazing. Restaurants in Thailand don’t make a Pad Thai as delicious as the Pad Thai at Bua Luang—believe us, we have tried Pad Thai all over Thailand and we still longed for the Pad Thai at Bua Luang. The chef at this restaurant is a culinary master!

Not only are the dishes at this restaurant superb, the atmosphere is serene and delightful. The indoor space is clean, cozy, and modern with soft old-world touches and whimsical lighting. The ambiance music is very pleasant. It’s not too loud, and it’s easy to talk with and hear others in your party. If you choose to dine outside, you are greeted by the most beautiful outdoor seating area on all of Solano Avenue. The space is gorgeous and inviting. And then there is the staff: always friendly and attentive. They provide a truly exceptional dining experience all around.

This restaurant is an absolute gem. If I could give it more stars I would. Don’t walk, run to this spot!“

“First time trying Burmese food and it was delicious. The staff was so friendly and suggested great items. Will definitely be back.“

“My husband and I came across your Chestnut location this past weekend! What a wonderful find. The VERY nice gentleman that served us, the best dumplings - I highly recommend the Spicy Sichuan Wontons in Red Oil. Looking forward to our next visit!“

“First time patrons, recommended by a friend. Walk-in, no reservation on a busy saturday noon. Less than 5 minutes wait to be seated. We preferred indoors over the (nice) patio. Bright, airy interior.
Friendly, welcoming, helpful staff and excellent service.
Nice variety of dishes, portions rather big, excellent and very tasty food. IMHO an outstanding competitor to the famous Taiwanese chain. Much better value here. Highly recommended!“

“ton katsu rice bowl: amazing!!!
spam rice bowl: not good.
kimchi fried rice: pretty good
beef kimbap: good
japchae: not good, too oily and soggy
beef bulgogi: good
pork belly: good
dumplings/potstickers: good!
corndogs: decent

drinks: all very yummy, my favorites are ube and horchata“

“Good portions and friendly staff. Love the atmosphere and college town feel.“

“I order from here every few months and the wings are delicious. I ordered the Thai chili and the korean kick. I enjoy the wet wings more than the dry rubbed wings. I prefer ordered through the app to save time on waiting for the wings to cook.“

“Last night my husband, son and I went for dinner and, hands-down, it was fantastic! The restaurant is stylish and modern, the staff is super friendly and knowledgable and the food is delicious. You MUST try this place!“
