Soul Food Restaurants near Union City, CA

“As a family, we have tried Steet Food Vibes regularly over the last year. Our favorites are Aloo Tikki Chaat, Talaab Tikki (on secret menu), Samosa Chaat, Bharwa Golgappa, Channa Bhatura, Mix Vegetable Pakoda, Paneer Pakoda, Aloo Tikki kathi, Paneer kathi, Crispy Gobi (cauliflower) Kathi, Masala Chai and Gajar Ka Halwa.We find the food taste authentic Indian street food. I can tell everything is freshly made with minimal oil and bursting with flavors. The chole bhatura (kids favorite) reminds me of food as I have in India. Pakoda's are crispy and have a special spice sprinkled on top. The mint and tamarind chutneys, yogurt are of thick consistency unlike some other restaurants where they can be watery. My daughter loves the juicy chicken kathi. The vegetarian Kathi’s are flavorful with carrot pickle touch. The fresh masala chai at the end is typically a nice close to your mealRestaurant is clean. Service is friendly and quick. For the food quality and service, they offer, I feel the food is very reasonably pricedLast week, I ordered catering for a home party. My guests loved the food namely Samosa Chaat Aloo Tikki Chaat, Talaab Tikki, Paneer Pakoda, Chicken Tikka and Pav Bhaji. Their special samosas had a nice thin layer covering and were crispy. Aloo Tikki had a filling in the middle. Pav Bhaji was flavorful. Chicken Tikka was a youngsters favorite. I had a couple of guests who are also great chefs. Their super positive feedback is always a testament to food quality and taste.Thank you, Street Food Vibes, for the dine-in experiences and making our recent party successful with you catering!“

“One of the best fried chicken in a long time. It looks dry but there's a lot of juice and flavor once you get into it. If it was delivered I don't think it would taste as good. The fried cod was good but not great because it wasn't juicy or buttery soft.The cornbread sides were yummy. The Mac and cheese was cheeeeesy and thick and medium spicy. Collard greens were normal. Green beans were sweet and yummy. Fries were normal fries.I asked for tap water since I didn't want a drink and the server looked surprised (and partly disgusted because I wanted faucet water?) and asked if I wanted bottled water instead. I said sure so we could end the conversation and didn't see the charge on the final receipt. I wasn't sure if the server forgot to add it or bottled water is free. Overall not a complaint but if you want to avoid drink confusion, either don't order water or bring your own lol“

“Highly recommend. Food cooked fresh and scrumptious. Delightful and delicious. Person who made my food made it with passion. Great service with a smile. Area it was in was hidden. Needs to be more marketed. This particular day I went it was peaceful until random person came and distributed my peaceful thoughts. But it's okay. One thing I learned in customer service is to ignore the headache and go on with my day. But this skill didn't work. How did I over come this? The food was so flavorful that I was lost of words, I couldn't believe it myself. This isn't no 99 cent blend. This blend is made with love and passion. The owner knows what he is doing. If your going for some good chicken sandos in Fremont, gotta stop by this hidden gem. Highly recommend.“

“I also have a Soul Food Restaurant but in Sacramento. I came to this establishment from a recommendation after leaving a funeral. I met the staff including the owner, the food, the service and the conversation was great. I even seen a old friend when we use to live here. Love it will be back.“

“Don't sleep on this place, best fried fish hands down.Don't let the wait scare you, it is worth it. Staff was cool, seems like a family run type spot. Remember its a take out window only and they are busy, know what you want and dont waste time at window wondering or being picky, there are always a lot of people waiting. I ordered fish (red snapper) and prawns, in about 30 mins my order was ready, it traveled well, was not soggy at all when I got home. Everything was bomb, excellent, fish was flaky and fresh. Highly recommended!“
