Restaurants in Union City

“Mala Town is hands down one of the best spots for Sichuan dry pot in Union City! You get to pick your own ingredients and spice level, and they stir-fry everything to perfection with that addictive numbing-spicy mala flavor. Portions are generous, perfect for sharing, and prices are fair for the quality.

The medium spice has a nice kick, but if you love heat, go for the higher levels—it’s legit spicy! Service is quick and friendly, and the restaurant has a clean, modern vibe. Definitely a go-to place if you’re craving bold flavors and want a fun, shareable meal.”

“Fresh food, made to order, great service, good price for quality food”

“very good food and friendly staff!!! the food is pricy but very good”

“Will be back! Great food 😋😋😋”

“I have tried the most of Korean restaurants in Hayward, Dublin, Union city, Fremont and Milpitas. This place the most authentic and not Americanized, meaning the dishes are NOT sweet.”

“Pretty nice restaurant in the UC area, they were able to accommodate my group of 12 though the restaurant is a bit smaller. The service was good, unlike the other reviews servers came to take our order, and food was good as well.

Started off with lamb seekh kabobs which were really good, and chicken malai was ok as well. Got the chilli chicken, I think it def could have been spicier, and had more veggies than meat, but meat was good. Mango Lassi was actually nice and thick! For entrees, we got the kadai chicken, chicken curry, and goat curry, all pretty good. And I absolutely LOVED the gulab jamun with ice cream at the end.”

“Our favorite place for a date night in Union City! Fantastic menu choices and delicious food every time.”

“Chris that works there is awesome, food is good and they are accommodating”

“Ribs are the best, falling off the bones and the fresh hot bread”

“kantutan to the max😆😆 see photo”

“Muy rica y buena comida! Sabor y porciones muy buenas! El personal muy agradable y muy serviciales. El lugar bueno y limpio aunque escondido pues está en una zona de oficinas. Pero en general 💯 por 💯 recomendado 👍”

“Tuesdays 40% off on any Large pizza , i came here with my family about 10 of us and the service was great and so was the food quality . Great super sufficient staff and they know their menu items very well that they will help you choose what you could try for your dietary options. OH! Dont forget they Finally have stuffed crust option too!!!”

“Lamb was very tender and girthy, it was especially good raw. The lack of soda perplexed me, I gained over 25 pounds after eating here! Finally I way 440 pounds. The laterally thin rice dessert completely satisfied my cravings. The nice whitish liquid, that elicited a delicious reaction with my pink tongue, wowed my world. Overall my chakra levels increased and I can now go on to master spinjutsu! We love you Tecca! 10/10”

“We ordered half and half Supream and Soy & Garlic fried chicken. It was v crispy and also juicy. We’ve also had the honey cheese one and that one is pretty good too. They were pretty understaffed tonight (2 servers on a Saturday night), so I hope they hire more people to work on a weekend night!”

“Driving all the way from Milpitas almost every Tuesday & Thursday just to enjoy their $1 oysters is absolutely worth it! Bay Grill never disappoints when it comes to food and service. Their fried rice is so flavorful, the garlic cheese bread is addicting, and the Korean grilled pork belly and chicken karaage are definitely must-tries. Honestly, almost everything on their menu is delicious. Worth the drive every single time just to dine here! 😋🦪✨”

“Very authentic Cantonese clay pot dishes. Everything came out piping hot. The flavors are spot on. The place is clean and not crowded. Service is fast. The only negative is that the ribs in the pot we ordered were very chewy and the sliced meats in the porridge were also chewy. However all the cured meats and sausages were perfect so we still enjoyed the dishes. Will definitely come back to try another time.”

“This is definitely a hidden gem at the moment. It's becoming the community favorite. During peak times it can be a bit busy, and parking is a bit difficult. So ordering out might be preferred. Upon my arrival, the customer service was outstanding and greeting me with pure care. Drinks were made formidable. The ambiance was nothing less than opulence. Congratulations and keep up the divine customer service 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿”

“People skills friendly and cleanliness”

“Good food, prompt take out service, friendly staff on phone.”

“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!”

“We went here for dinner tonight the service was good the food yummy so fresh we couldn’t eat it all so I know what’s for lunch tomorrow and we are going back next Thursday”

“All I can say is ??? Wow!!! Came in for supper and was DELIGHTED To the sounds of a live band!!!! Awesome sounds and really down homey tasting food. Will definitely. Be back!!!!!”

“Even though they only had 1 cook the food came out fast.”

“The food tastes very good. It’s delicious. Highly recommend for flavorful evening out. If it does take a little bit of time to reach your table, it is worth it. Made fresh!”

“The food here was AMAZING! The service was very quick and all of the waitstaff were extremely kind and welcoming. I don't have any pictures to include because my friends and I ate it so quickly after it came out! Would highly suggest this as a dimsum spot for people to come eat!”

“The Hangover Burger was great”

“Elegant, delicious, truly artisan donuts. The unique flavors and beautiful products show off a love for the craft of baking that goes far beyond mere donuts. I highly recommend Doughweime for any time that your sweet tooth is active, but especially for special occasions when you want your desserts to stand out. Awesome!”

“Good food, friendly service, and a clean place. Everything was fresh and tasty, and the order was ready quickly. Nice spot for a quick meal. I’d come back again.”

“Finally made the 90-minute trek to Dave’s Hot Chicken with the fam! 🍗 The vibe was great—super friendly staff and a very clean spot despite the crowd. The chicken was fresh, hot, and delicious. Only downside was no cheese sticks today, but that just gives us an excuse to come back soon!”

“Sweet Mex makes the BEST Mangonada around! They're unmatched. They also make delicious food. The Carne asada tacos are delicious, the street corn is tastey, & the tostiloco's satisfies every bit of my savory craving for the day. Basically, they have a little something for everyone! Salty, Sweet, refreshing...you name it, they GOT IT! 🤩”

“Best pizza I’ve had in the area and surrounding cities including Oakland and SF. Small place but the vibe is super chill, great serving sizes for single slice, good place to go with friends, and the workers and owners are Gs. Must try pizza fosho.”

“Love the cookies, enjoy them weekly! Would of got 5 stars if it wasn't for the fact that all weekly cookies are always sold out......EVERY week. Iv never been there when every cookies was in stock.....don't understand. Other than that if you havent tried them your missing out!”

“People are so warm and friendly!!! Our new favorite place ❤️”

“Pleasant & courteous greeting, Neat & clean tables, Quick table service & ordering, Good food, served hot”

“It’s a Beautiful place the guys very Friendly and Nice costumer Service the Best Boba In the Bay Area. We loved and recommend ;they have a lot of flavors every fruit it’s Natural and the tapiocas so good 😊”

“Yesenia is a recipe genius! Every dish I've tried from her blog has been a hit. Her recipes are easy to follow and always turn out delicious. If you're looking for foolproof recipes that will impress your taste buds, she's your go-to. Maltese local dishes .. elevated, sophisticated, just perfect!”

“We bought frozen biscuits … omg, light as a feather. They were perfect! Hubby also loved chicken pot pie I had purchased when I knew I was going to be out of town. Soups… delish!”

“I Took a chance to call from parking lot to order lol However, Jason was glad to place my order with pleasant and eager customer service. The Lady with pretty nails rang me up and was wonderful as well! I ordered Creamy Already Fettuccine with Chicken and Sun Dried Tomatoes. It was amazingly delicious at the first bit and came with slice of garlic bread. If You're a Pasta Lover, I highly recommend!”

“If you are into Ube then this is the place.”

“The Best Burger Ever ❤️ Love It 😍”

“Great food, healthy option, decent price and happy people work there. I'm so glad that my daughter introduced me to this place. Break Your Fast is my "go to" place from now on.”

“1combo Sandwich $8.00 and 2 fried spring rolls 3.00
Very good prices for the year 2026 and very tasty
As a Vietnamese myself the Flavors were as expected, A very good baseline if you want to introduce someone to the Banh mi( sandwich)
and Fried springrolls”

“It’s an outdated and old Chinese food restaurant with no atmosphere at all but the handmade food here are so delicious. The food presentation is not well done but it’s authentic Chinese cuisine for sure”

“X-tra Hot! Not above my tolerance, enough for that lip burning sensation, but does not linger afterwards nor makes breathing difficult, if you know what I mean (that's Holy Chic+ levels). I can feel that heat moving through my belly for a day after! 🔥 (pretty much the same as Dave's though)”

“I had The Combo Pho and took a Combo Bahn Mi to go.. Both very good and the bread for the bahn Mi was fresh. Also had a Thai Tea very good!”

“Best and most underrated ramen in the Bay! The broth is so flavorful, the texture of the noodles is perfect, and the pork belly is so crispy. Good portions for the price and the owners/service are great. My personal fav is the TanTan! Can be a little salty so request less salt :)”

“Grand opening with free meals! Delicious!!!”

“Excelente customer service. Super friendly, smiley and fast service. Superb vibes and tranquility in the place. Super happy and satisfied with the pizza quality. I normally have the combinación personal size and it’s super delicious. I will rated the best place in town.”

“The food here was phenomenal!! Our order was taken by the restaurant grandpa, and he was the sweetest. He literally walks away, and two minutes later, our food is at our table. The broth was delicious. Some of the best we have had around this area. And then best part is, it was affordable.”

“Dry pot beef brisket and chicken was excellent.
Tried beef with scallion and cumin lamb before, also good
Have the option to make food very spicy if asked”

“A unique, local place to hang out with family and friends, relaxed and friendly atmosphere, and generally a great space to just chill. Grab a bite to eat from Da Good Vibes or whenever they have pop up events featuring local food vendors.”

“Got Pad Thai and a Thai iced tea to go. Food was great. One thing I didn't realize until it was too late is that the peanuts are on the bottom under the foil.”

“Excellent!! The ube is wonderful!”

“The pho ga is flavorful. The steam chicken is tender and delicious. I warmed up the chicken since I prefer it that way. The chicken wings are bigger than normal, but they taste good.
A big shout out for an excellent service. 👍👍”

“I've been coming to Suju's for the longest time now, and everytime I think of a place to finish my work and be productive, Suju's is definitely the place to go for me. It's not just the environment, but it's also the drinks that they have. They don't just have your basic cup of joe -- they pour a wide variety of beverages that span from classic espresso drinks to matcha lattes, ube lattes, and cold frappes that hit on warmer afternoons. I find that matcha-based options have raving reviews almost like the espresso coffee drinks as well.
Recently I got a matcha espresso latte, and while the matcha taste was subtle, the shots still sat bold in my palate. It was balanced, whether you're sipping straight or in a milk-forward drink.

The service and hospitality is pretty top-notch as well :)

Suju's in Union City has literally been my morning ritual for the longest time now. The one thing I really commend them for is their steady stream of espresso classics as well as the warm seating and a laid-back atmosphere help it feel less chain and more neighborhood hub, especially if you're popping in to study, chat, or just savor a cup.”

“My favorite Filipino food spot in the Bay Area! The food here tastes like home. The food is always good whatever you order, and the prices are a great value. I always try to come here regularly.

Just know that the inside seating is very limited and there are not that many tables. So, it's sometimes hard to get seating during busy hours. However, the food is prepared fairly quickly and table turn over is fast.”

“This Bronco Billy's pizza is a little out of the way. But well worth it. Their pizzas are delicious. The service is always friendly. Plenty of parking on the right side of the restaurant.”

“Best sandwiches! The garlic sauce makes the sandwich. The avocado is so fresh!”

“Hawaiian Cream Bread is the shiiiiiiiiiit!”

“Red Ribbon is my go to for cakes! The mango supreme is absolutely amazing always fresh and not overly sweet! Also Clarence help me with the choices! Great service and quality every time”

“Great value and good flavor overall. The stewed meats like lengua were super tender and rich—definitely the highlight. The grilled options (tripa, asada, al pastor) were just okay; tripa could’ve been crispier, and the others lacked that seared depth.

The restaurant is clean, and service is solid, though it’s mostly self-serve—order at the counter and grab your own salsas and drinks. Easy, no-fuss setup that works. I’d come back and stick with the braised meats.”

“Have been here a few times already and everything is consistently delicious. Thought it was about time for a review! Most recently, I ordered the pho ga (chicken pho) just as it is and it was flavorful, full of good size chicken pieces, ample noodles, and the broth was perfect. Toppings on the side were plentiful (basil, lemon, sprouts, etc.). I also ordered a soda chanh (lemon soda) and some spring rolls. Again, never an issue with the freshness or quantity provided. Just loved it and highly recommended you pay this restaurant a visit if you're in Union City and are seeking a wonderful Vietnamese restaurant. While I haven't tried the other meat/rice dishes they offer (since I typically only ordered pho), my other family members have and will attest that they are made well and are of sizeable portion. Also, the family that runs this place is always kind and efficient. Thank you so much!”

“We usually had our go-to sandwich spots, but we wanted to try something new. We ordered from DoorDash, and it was made quickly. The staff was friendly, the location was clean and organized, and the food was delivered to go. The sandwiches were a good size, the bread was fresh, and the overall taste was good. We plan on going more often since we did a DoorDash pickup. I know we payed more, but I’ll review the menu prices next time and order in person.”

“Great job!! Good food and portions! I’m”

“This place was great. No frills counter service but what matters is the sandwich and this was very good. Banh mis in general have hit another level in pricing in the bay but if ur paying that u want a meaty sandwich and this was that. Well balanced and the all important bread was spot on. This place deserves a lot more business.”

“Staff is always friendly I highly recommend their asada fries and ask for pico de gallo. Their horchata is homemade its soo good. They have deals too and good prices.”

“I've been contemplating going to this place for years. I wasn't able to stop by there because I was always at work. I finally went with my family and they don't miss a beat. It was on point. I will go there every week if I could. Everything was tender. Delicious, flavorful, colorful and pretty much healthy, which is rare nowadays. You can tell that they have been in this business for a while cuz they know what they're doing”

“This is yet one of the best Vietnamese Restaurants in the Bay Area. The Pho and Bun Bo Hue is truly authentic. 👍😋”

“Their pig’s feet are fantastic: incredibly flavorful and fall-off-the-bone tender. The other menu items, like the popcorn chicken and mango desserts, are also delicious.”

“Great place for a few drinks, friendly people and billards but watch out for the table sharks! Hahaa this place is LIVE on friday and saturdays for kareoke nights! Thank you!”

“Da Good Vibes offers a delicious fusion of Filipino, American, and Hawaiian dishes. When they replaced the old restaurant, I honestly thought I was going to miss the previous menu, especially the mochiko chicken, which was the old spot’s specialty. I remember hoping the new restaurant would have great food too, but oh my gosh, they exceeded my expectations from day one.

I’ve been a loyal fan ever since. I’ve tried most of their menu, and their roasted beef is my absolute favorite. It’s incredibly delicious, although it’s only offered for a limited time. The chicken adobo and guava-glazed pork are close runners-up, and the chili rice is just as flavorful. The staff is so warm and welcoming that I already feel like family whenever I visit. Kudos to the chef!”

“First time Here very Impressed with the Mango 🥖Baguette it was very good & we will definitely return for more Variety.”

“Perfection! I will not go anywhere else for pizza 🍕 bolani kabob and qabuli so good 😊”

“With family and friends enjoying ice-cream”

“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.”

“Was originally hesitant trying the popular poke bowl, but immediately the staff was helpful and welcoming! I created my own bowl and had so much fun choosing from the variety of fresh ingredients. Definitely was packed with love. 11/10 so fulfilling in all the right ways!”

“Delicious Ice crean ! staff Very Friendly!”

“I love that Gong Cha is expanding their stores into my locality. Getting my favorite pearl milk tea had never been easier!”

“The kare kare and pork barbecue is good but the Leche flan are not tasty”

“The cream brûlée milk tea is delicious! However, I wanted to try something new so I tried the coconut matcha drink, at first, I was nervous, but after taking a sip I was pleasantly surprised! The staff was also very friendly. 10/10 recommend.”

“always a great time. cool bartenders. security provided.”

“Have been going to dragon house since i was 14 years old one of the best restaurants in union city very clean and friendly staff. Mongolian chicken and honey walnut prawns

Kid-friendliness: They have always been kind to our kids, they love coming here. Both have come since babies one is 10 and one is four and they both love Dragon House”

“muy Malo la atencion y la comida la gallina asada estaba extramadamente llena d moztaza y El fresco de ensalada muy acido en mi Tamal d pollo me said sin papa's sin emotes y con un pedazo de piel de pollo nada de elegance sucios los platos”

“Tapex Union city is my favorite boba spot! The lady cashier is always friendly and provides the best customer service. Their boba and food are always delicious and the wait times are never long even when it’s super busy.”

“The Best Sandwiches!”

“Wonderful service and food, I'll be back 😋”

“I enjoy their drinks here. The only complaint is they take a long time to prepare the drinks. I guess it’s takes time to make excellent tasting drinks. But it does turn me off sometimes from stopping here. Other than that the crafty lemon drinks hit the spot.”

“Been coming here for years. Really nice waitress who’s helped us for years. Food is good quality for the price. Not too much at atmosphere It’s a small sushi place but definitely a good one.”

“The owner lady Alecia welcomed us beautifully, she's so polite and lovely! Introduced us with all the freshly made articles and we decided to have a Vanilla Tres Leches. I have no words to describe! It's just amazing and I'm definitely going to visit again.
Do not consider negative reviews at all, just visit once and decide yourself! Best wishes to the team and especially Alecia!”

“Fast and easy self-service bakery. The food is consistently great, but sometimes they're out of stock of half their menu. The milk tea is done in under a minute.”

“Nothing beats late night vibes with ya girl and a drink with some dessert. Cozy atmosphere with plenty of parking in the later hours. Great offerings from drinks, to desserts, with even some appetizers and entrees. Check it out fr”

“This drive through location is kicking butt. Very long line out to the street and into the street but it’s worth it. Everyone at the window has a smile and is very professional and polite at the speaker box. ❤️”

“yummy chicken difference here in jollibee USA the peach mangoe pie are bigger my hubby loves it its like we are in phillipines”

“Jasmine has excellent customer service, serves with a smile, courteous and so helpful. Understandfing the condition oif my special needs daughter. Five start rating to Jasmine , the hostess at Kabila , Union City.”

“Starbucks Coffee — Union City, California ☕🌴

☕🌉🚗
Starbucks Coffee feels like a classic Bay Area stop — practical, steady, and perfectly placed for people constantly in motion.

📍🌤️💼
Located in Union City, this kind of Starbucks serves commuters, shoppers, workers, and travelers moving through the East Bay corridor. A quick coffee here often means the day is still rolling.

🥤🧭✨
Some locations are about atmosphere, others are about usefulness. This one feels like both: familiar menu, reliable service, a place to pause for ten minutes or refuel before the next destination.

🚙☕📱
For road people, Starbucks becomes more than coffee — restroom break, charger outlet, Wi-Fi, cold drink, warm drink, short reset. Small comforts matter when you spend enough time moving.

🌴🌇🌉
Northern California stores often carry a certain rhythm: busy but not chaotic, efficient but still relaxed. That balance is why stops like this stay valuable.

☕🇺🇸📍
A dependable Union City Starbucks that does exactly what it should — keep people going, one cup at a time.”

“i love Habit Burger Grill so glad that we have one in Union City, everytime i go fishing always stop by in serramonte to eat.”
