42 Best Asian Fusion Restaurants near Riverside

“Spicy Tuna Roll The tuna was fresh and had just the right amount of 'kick' from the sriracha-mayo blend without masking the actual flavor of the fish.

Mango rice The mango was incredibly ripe and juicy, pairing beautifully with the warm, chewy coconut rice. Not overly sweet, but just the right balance of creamy and refreshing

summer rolls were incredibly fresh
The veggies are so crisp, and that peanut dipping sauce is liquid gold. The perfect light lunch.“

“Stopped there on our way to AllState Arena, amazing food, and such a kind owner! Super clean and beautiful inside! We had a vegetarian in our group, and this little gem had so many options for her!“

“We love coming here to eat ❤️ The service is excellent, and the food is delicious. We are always welcomed with a wonderful attitude—especially by Mia, one of the servers, who is very helpful, cheerful, and friendly 🍀 The prices are fair for the food they offer, and the place remains clean and tidy, even when it’s busy.✨“

“One of my wife and I’s favorite spots. If you’re in the area, this is a must.“

“Incredible experience. I will definitely be back. Tried the monster and the spicy summer. Both were amazing. Oh and can’t forget the Gyoza. 10 out of 10 highly recommend!!!!“

“The service was fantastic the day I was there 2/13/26. Ordered in person. Ordered rangoon, pot stickers, fried rice, chicken fried rice bowl (with specific vegetables only) side of noodles, extra side of fried rice and was all cooked great!! The order took about 10-12 minutes which is exactly what they said when I ordered it. Very nice staff. Would order again from this location.“

“the most beautiful restaurant my tastebuds have ever laid their taste on. absolutely amazing. the best tasting rice, chicken, garlic aioli, noodles, and everything they happen to serve. i am moving to chicago and this will be my regular spot. im so heartbroken i cannot have it until then. know you will be satisfied like never before when you eat from here. blowing smooches to the chefs and everyone who puts in the work and love to serving their customers.“

“Literally one of the best burgers I have ever eaten!“

“My food was very yummy, the staff and service was also top notch!“

“The bowl customizable add-on options are AMAZING. Everything tasted fresh even though I went in pretty late at night. Plus the bowl is plenty food, you could probably split it into 2 meals! Only complaint is that the chicken I got was slightly dry.“

“Visited for the first time over the weekend. Had a wonderful time, loved the large varied menu, loved the food, loved my drinks, and really loved the performance by Denny Diamond! Three of us in our group and we can’t wait to return! Ordered many food and drink items from the menu because we were all trying the food for the first time and between the three of us, every item was a hit, with no misses. Will be back in August for Denny Diamond’s next performance!“

“the food is always incredible, perfectly light and filling at the same time! The crispy chicken aioli baowich always wins and the creative baonuts hit the sweet tooth without knocking it out. I cant recommend this place enough, amd so far I've only done delivery! huge soft spot for being the first bit of food I was able to keep down and enjoy on a very sick day. THANK YOU FOR AWESOME, COMFORTING, DELICIOUS FOOD!“

“My husband and I stopped into NoodleBird while visiting Logan Square, and we’re so glad we did. Everything we ate and drank was absolutely delicious. The Pork & Ginger Dumplings, Charcoal Chicken, and Ginger Lemon & Turmeric Soda were all standouts and definitely worth ordering. I also loved the thoughtful detail of the owner’s grandparents’ photos on the bathroom doors. It was such a sweet, personal touch. We’re already looking forward to eating here again the next time we’re in Chicago.“

“We were indifferent to Mora when it first opened several years ago. The food was ok but not great. We went back for the first time in years a few weeks ago and were absolutely delighted by everything. We returned on Sunday afternoon and continue to be bowled over inspite of the noisy laughter coming from a couple of women in a corner booth.“

“great variety of noodles and vegetables. the service was perfect, on a busy Saturday night.“

“อารหารอร่อยไปอุดหนุนกันนะคะ ลองชิมดูจะคุ้มแค่ไปหน“

“love the dine in experience...Nuff said“

“This place is such a wonderful dining spot for a girls’ night out! From the moment we walked in, our waitress greeted us with such genuine delight. She was warm, friendly, and set such a positive tone for the evening.

Then came Carlos, who completely elevated our experience. He was attentive, understanding, and incredibly talented. I can be pretty particular with food, and when I told him exactly how I like my salmon, he went above and beyond. The result was even better than I expected! The flavors were perfect, the presentation was beautiful, and his service was outstanding from start to finish.

Between the amazing food, the welcoming atmosphere, and the exceptional service from both our waitress and Carlos, we felt so comfortable and well taken care of. This spot is definitely a must-visit if you want great food and even greater service!“

“The Sushi was absolutely delicious .“

“First place I ate dinner at when home shopping in the neighborhood. Been a regular for years now. Sushi is great, especially for the price. The owner is super nice. Really kind to my family and would ask about how my kids are doing when i did takeout during Covid. Will keep coming back.“

“The beef rendang was amazing, it's actually better than the ones I've had in Malaysia, the USDA beef may have something to do with it 🤔“

“Fantastic egg rolls and friendly service. I love the Obama eggroll and my wife had the Philly steak. That was also very good. Highly recommend!!!!“

“Ok ordered there twice in the past week again. Tried something new this time, romaine, chicken, broccoli, eggs and cheese and just as good as the bowl i get with purple rice, chicken and broccoli. Oh and cant forget the yum yum sauce! ❤️❤️ absolutely love there food ❤️❤️ Wish we had one in the Lockport area. I can only get it when I'm at work in Downers Grove or Lagrange.“

“It was the March of the slow melt in River Grove, when the last stubborn ice clung to the curbs like a defeated army refusing to surrender, and the wind off the lake still carried the bite of winter even as the sun began its tentative return, that the craving struck me deep and unanswerable. The Outback carried me south through the familiar arteries of the Northwest Side—past the shuttered factories and the glow of corner bars—until I reached Silli Kori on Division Street, a small brick outpost glowing warm against the gray afternoon, its windows fogged with the breath of cooking and the promise of something older than memory.
I stepped inside and the air wrapped around me thick with lemongrass, galangal, and the faint smoke of charred chilies, a scent that rose like incense in a forgotten temple. The server brought the khao soi without ceremony: a deep bowl of golden curry broth, rich and unctuous, coconut milk tempered by the slow fire of turmeric and red paste, noodles coiled beneath like the roots of some ancient banyan. Tender chicken sank into the liquid heat and gave itself up willingly; crispy egg noodles rose above the surface in defiant golden tufts, half submerged, half defiant, catching the broth in their strands so that every bite was at once soft surrender and sharp crunch. The pickled mustard greens offered their tart bite, the shallots their quiet sting, the lime a sudden bright slash across the richness, and the chili oil—oh, the chili oil—floated in lazy red rings, promising fire without ever overwhelming the peace beneath.
I ate slowly, deliberately, the spoon moving through the broth like a blade through silk, and felt the cold that had lodged in my bones since January begin its long retreat. Each mouthful was a quiet insurrection against the gray days: the curry warm as a hearth fire in a northern hall, the noodles yielding yet substantial, the whole bowl carrying the weight of northern Thai hills and the slow simmer of patience. It was good—more than good; it was resolute, life-affirming, the kind of dish that makes a man believe the thaw will hold this time, that spring might actually arrive before the next polar vortex descends.
The Thai iced tea came alongside, poured over ice in a tall glass, orange-gold and sweetened just enough to cut the spice without cloying, condensed milk swirling lazy clouds through the amber like cream in old whiskey. I drank it slow, letting the sweetness linger on the tongue while the khao soi’s heat still bloomed in the throat, and for a moment the city outside—the traffic on Milwaukee, the salt-streaked cars, the endless gray—fell away, and there was only the bowl, the glass, the quiet hum of the restaurant, and the small, stubborn triumph of a meal well taken.
I have not yet returned to plunder the rest of the menu—the green papaya salad that must sing with lime and peanuts, the drunken noodles that promise fire and basil, the mango sticky rice that waits like treasure at the end of a long voyage—but the khao soi stands as covenant between cook and cold, a steaming shield against the siege of Chicago’s reluctant spring, the steadfast companion a man hungers for when the wind still howls and the body demands more than mere sustenance.
Ten stars out of five, though the heavens are miserly with such reckonings. I would sup it at the gates of Minas Tirith itself and fear no shadow on the long ride back to River Grove.

“Absolutely immaculate. I’ve been craving good Chinese food and this place totally delivered. I’d give more stars if possible. Great service, food was piping hot when we picked it up and still hot and fresh when we got home. The flavor exceeded my standard and I will definitely be going back. We splurged because it was Christmas and spent about 100 for two people but we will be eating for days if not the entire week with that. 10/10 experience, thank you Li Hing Restaurant!!“

“I’ve only gotten takeout from Googoos Table and it’s always been good! This time I ordered the Kung Pao chicken and I said “Please make it extra spicy, I swear I can handle it!”

Holy cow! They brought it! Don’t be afraid to ask, they’ll make you eat your words. I’m very happy, highly recommend.“

“We've come to Sushi Time enough times that the owner knows my son by name and his order. (I'm actually surprised it took me this long to review!) Sally and Mike are wonderful people who go above and beyond in customer service. Be it chatting with my son, cutting up the maki rolls into smaller pieces for him, or remembering GF soy sauce - I'm always so impressed. While my son and I indulge in the rolls, my husband has shown me their menu is extensive and includes other delicious meals including the fried rice, crab rangoons, and chicken katsu. Keep doing what you're doing! We always enjoy our lunch visits.“

“I will die happy in this buffet“

“Great place I came here with a bunch of friends for one their birthdays 🎂. We all ordered the all you can eat. The brisket and Thai fried rice was to die for. Their ice cream shaped cake was beautiful and well prepared. We will be back soon.“

“Delicious food good service friendly stuff Cost super affordable great experience Definitely worth it It was my first time but for sure going back“

“good quality buffet for a competitive price. I prefer it over Golden Coral on most days when I am feeling up for a buffet.“
