“We are from Connecticut, and during a recent trip to the Bay Area, we had the extreme good fortune to try the Afghan Awasana Kabob House. Oh my ... what an experience! The food was superb … an epicurean delight, but also plentiful, and very reasonably priced. The qabuli palow - a lamb shank dish was a standout, and the squash bolani - a stuffed flatbread was out of this world. The owner was very friendly during dinner, only to be surpassed by what happened after our dinner. Upon leaving, our car would not start. The owner offered to jump start our car. When that did not work, he offered us a ride back to the house where we were staying ... which we gratefully accepted. On the way, while we were thanking him profusely, he indicated that this was not an imposition as he routinely gave rides to his workers. I was moved to tears with his generosity. The Afghan Awasana Kabob House stimulated my palate, satiated my appetite, and above all, nourished my soul with renewed faith in the kindness of humanity. A truly memorable evening that will not soon be forgotten.”
“Delicious and Fresh! Every dish at Garam Mirchi tastes homemade with fresh ingredients and authentic spices. The paneer fried rice and the Hakka noodles had a great smoky flavor. Definitely recommended!”
“This spot is spotlessly clean and serves great‑tasting food. Ingredients are fresh, and portions are very generous. I really appreciate being able to customize my toppings. The staff are friendly and efficient. I end up eating here twice a week, and parking is convenient too.”
“Love this place. The food is good. The complimentary edamame and ice cream are such a nice treat. Good for large parties. We had 12 people with lots of kids and there was plenty of space. The best part was they knew how to split the bill since we had 4 families without us asking.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“I had the best lamb shank (Quran Lamb) I have ever had. My wife had the chicken kabob, which was good as well. We tried the Firni (cardamom-infused pudding), a wonderful flavor combo I have never had before. We did take out, but the dining in looks nice and comfortable. This place just opened in September 2025. You will be happy if you give it a try.”
“Everyone needs to come support this burger spot the food is delicious and the desserts, including the milkshakes are great. Very attentive employees. My family and I have never had a bad meal or a bad experience overall at this restaurant. This is not a chain restaurant but it's owned by a local business woman who is dedicated to her her?”
“Great hot pot experience! The food was fresh and delicious, with plenty of options to choose from. The broth was flavorful, the service was friendly and attentive, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. My family and I really enjoyed our meal. We will definitely come back again and highly recommend this place!”

“we've been 3 times in the past few months and every time was great. we went the day after my wife's birthday, the same day our pet passed, and the staff made it a very special experience and distraction from our loss. absolutely recommend 110%. great food, great people, great experience overall.”

“I tried the mango yogurt drink at UMe Tea in Fremont and it was so good!🥭🧋 The yogurt was creamy, refreshing, and had a really nice fruity flavor without being too heavy.. I especially loved the texture and the toppings—it made the drink extra fun.
The Fremont location is also really cute, and the staff were friendly and the service was quick. Definitely a great spot when you’re craving something refreshing and different from regular milk tea. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their yogurt drinks! 💕”

“The guy at the counter, Khan, had great recommendations! Got the loaded chicken fries in xtra hot and WOW. If you're someone who lives for spicy foods or dynamite chips, this is exactly your heat level — that same addictive, sinus-clearing kick. Crispy chicken, loaded fries, seriously amazing flavor, not just heat for heat's sake.
Also huge plus: it's halal! Honestly better than Angry Chicks in my opinion — the spice game here is more legit and the flavor holds up. Fremont needed this. Will definitely be back for more xtra hot runs.”

“Cozy little cafe in a quiet mall corner serving absolutely delicious crepes and Eastern European dishes. Went there for a family brunch and everyone was very happy with their meal. The blini and cabbage rolls were wonderful, and the garden crepe was spectacular. We will definitely be back soon!”
“Picked up two today uncooked to take home 250 miles away. Cooked them exactly how they said and they were amazing!!!! Thanks guys, I’ve missed your pizza!!”

“Delicious burgers with options to suit all tastes. They have beef, chicken, and veggie patties as well as some without Pakistani spices for picky eaters like my daughter. They also have loaded quesadillas with fries and their signature spicy sauce which are amazing. They also have a good variety of shakes. We’ve had the mango and the Oreo Never Boreo.”
“Food is by far superb! A must try and check out the place. Food is C delicious you will love it and waiters are extra friendly”
“Yummy Taiwanese style sandwiches. I guess this style might not be for everyone but I really like the slight sweetness and how soft the bread is in Taiwanese breakfast sandwiches. I always get the signature which has ham egg and sausage. The cucumbers and mayo add a nice freshness. I also tried the taro pork floss sandwich which I enjoyed because I love taro. Definitely super nostalgic of when I go to Taiwan.”

“I only write reviews when it’s super good or super bad. My only regret is that I didn’t come to this place sooner! Super fresh, tasty, handmade food at peak of authenticity. What a hidden gem in Fremont. With this place around, I don’t need to go to Korea for such good food!
Just note it opens 7am-3pm.”
“Very refined modern takes on Japanese food. The food is first class, service is great, and love the sake! Considering the incredible quality of the food, the price is very reasonable. If all you want is your typical California Rolls ect, this is not the place. You get a wonderful Omakase menu here. Definitely recommend Soho for those looking for great, and non-typical Japanese food.”
“Highly recommended! They give a generous portion of green onions and cilantro. The soup base is rich‑flavored yet not greasy. I ordered their signature beef stew noodles, which are well‑balanced nutritionally.
There are lots of custom options: noodle types, texture, spiciness and numbing spice level. You can also hold the green onions if you prefer.
It tastes just like comforting home‑style Chinese food. My kid cannot handle spicy food, so I ordered the non‑spicy version.”
“We ordered Mutton Rogan Josh, Goat Dum biryani, Jakarta chicken. overall I am giving 4 star rating as Dum biryani is not actual dum biryani. Lamb/ mutton is cooked separately and rice separately. We like the combo however not calling it biryani..
Worth visiting however overly priced.
Our server was priya and her service was exceptional..
Thank you”
“This is meant to be a takeout restaurant that has some seating indoors. The food came out exceptionally fast and was amazingly delicious. I used to come to this place for takeout, when I lived in fremont, glad to see that the place is still in business and still printing out outstanding product. The family that runs the place is amazing, hard-working and provide excellent customer service. I highly recommend them, please, and we'll be back again!”
“food is delicious. staff is so friendly and so supportive. They have the best vegetarian food in bay area.. I would recommend everyone who read this message to try at least once...I have done catering from this place and owner and staff have done great job...good job guys keep it up..GOD BLESS”
“I didn't expect such a big menu of everything. Lots of popular Thai food dishes. I was mostly impressed with the Thai fusion dishes. Everything was delicious and packed with flavor. My husband enjoyed the Kimchi Pad Thai. love the huge crepe menu. Definitely will be back to try out more on the menu!”
“This cozy breakfast spot specializes in Shanghainese comforts. Service is brisk and no-nonsense. We ordered a few staples — wontons, noodle soups and xiaolongbao — all of them competent and satisfying.
The pork kidney noodle soup is a rarity in the United States, though here the kidney is cut thick and left unstir-fried, so it contributes less flavor to the broth than it could. It is better treated almost as a side than as an integral part of the soup. The xiaolongbao are tasty, if more rustic in appearance than the finely pleated versions served at more polished places like Din Tai Fung.
Still, this is an honest, unfussy restaurant well worth returning to.”
“Simply amazing food and incredibly awesome staff ❤️👍 My addiction to ho here and eat ❤️❤️❤️ I just wish there was a Dish Dash in South San Francisco or close by 😕🙏”
“wonderful food and service- delightful date night deliciousness.”

“Breakfast Burrito best that we ate. Customer service was great. Place was clean customers in and out they are all serve with the smile. I salute to the manager on that day he himself at the counter serving a lot of customers. We are all satisfied our morning starts awesome.”
“Being part Burmese, I was very impressed with Burma Bay Cafe’s delicious dishes! Great service too. I’ll definitely be back.”

“Having enjoyed their dishes many times for months, It’s beyond “Very Satisfying”! Excellent, delicious food! Quality well maintained although it is a hard time under C-19. Hygiene suggestions n requests well followed! Thanks 🙏 Customer Service outstanding! Highly recommended 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍”
“The food here is absolutely exceptional. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well presented/packaged. The owner is also so sweet and friendly. The vibe of the place is quite homey and inviting. Definitely a top notch Filipino restaurant in my book. Maraming salamat, Tita!”
“I came with my two friends and we ordered pork intestines noodles, mala tang and lamb noodle soup.All of them are really flavorful and also the portions are really big and it is really worth it”

“Overall, I really enjoyed the tsukemen and it definitely satisfied my craving. The pork was tender with the perfect amount of fattiness, and I especially loved the bamboo shoots.
There are two things I think could make the tsukemen a solid 5/5. First, the dipping broth could be thicker and more concentrated. It had great umami flavor, but because it was a little too soupy, the sauce didn’t cling to the noodles as well as I’d like. One of my favorite things about tsukemen in Japan is how that rich, concentrated broth coats every bite of noodles.
Second, the noodles themselves had great texture—firm and perfectly al dente—but they broke apart very easily. By the end, I had a lot of tiny broken noodle pieces, some only about half an inch long. That’s something I rarely experience with tsukemen noodles in Japan, where they tend to stay long and intact throughout the meal.
That said, the flavors were there and I left satisfied. If they could thicken up the dipping broth and improve the noodles so they hold together better, this would easily be a 5-star tsukemen for me.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Curry Pizza House on Fremont Blvd is such a unique and delicious spot! The pizza was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, with an exciting fusion of classic pizza and bold Indian-inspired flavors. The toppings were generous, the crust had a great texture, and every bite was packed with flavor. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, and the service was friendly and efficient. A fantastic place to try something different and enjoy a satisfying meal. Definitely a 5-star experience—highly recommended! 🍕✨⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“This is by far the best Mexican restaurant in the area. I first discovered their incredible food when they were Tony’s Tacos, and I was thrilled when they moved to Papa Nachos while keeping the same outstanding quality and unforgettable flavors.
The meats are always top quality, the vegetables freshly prepared, and every bite is packed with flavor. It’s the kind of place that keeps you coming back for more.
Papa Nachos was the perfect stop during our RV road trip. A big thank you to Oscar and the entire Papa Nachos team for the delicious food and exceptional service. We can’t wait to come back!”
“One of the few authentic Korean restaurants in the Bay Area that doesn't skimp on the food! The Seolleongtang is delicious, but the Dogani Seolleongtang is incomparably rich and savory. The Doenjang Bibimbap truly deserves to be called a signature dish. I would also like to thank the staff for always treating customers with bright smiles and sincerity.”
“Had carne asada tacos, they were really tasty. The meat was super tender and not overcooked. Taco shells were good (a little on the greasy side for me but that’s kind of expected with tacos). And I really liked the salsa compared to most trucks. Will definitely be coming back”
“It was my first time and I had a good hype for this place from my Asian friends. This place was packed on a weekend and I heard they are busy most weekends. The place is cozy and we had to wait 15 mins to get a table. Their service is friendly and quick. We got the bbq fish which is this location famous for. I have to say I was surprised by the size and quantity. It was a big fish and good for 3 to 4 people. Though the fish was big it was mostly bones and their broth was spicy and sour with ample of veggies. We got Jasmine rice to go with it and it was good. The fish was fresh and the broth was soothing. We also got complimentary Ube dessert. Overall had a nice time and will definitely come back to try out their other dishes.”
“This was our first time here. We ordered the non-veg thali. The highlights for me were the chicken and fish curry! YUM!! Even the halwa wasn’t super sweet - perfect for a nice afternoon filling lunch. Lots of options to choose from!”
“Delicious food with amazing flavors! The biryani was aromatic and perfectly cooked, and the raita complemented it really well. They also have some special items on the menu definitely ask for and try the Chef’s Special items. Great taste, good portions, and a must-visit place.”

“Delicious food. When I see a post that they will be coming I will put my order in soon as possible. Always accommodating. Will go out their way to customize or make your request. All I can say is I wish it was a permanent establishment. Especially since it’s halal, it’s mouth watering. One bite and your taste buds will be like “ where you been this whole time”.”
“The sushi here is seriously good - fresh ingredients, creative rolls you won’t find anywhere else. The Fuji Roll? Absolutely delicious. Prices are reasonable, and the staff is friendly, even if the vibe inside feels a bit cramped and could use a deeper clean. It’s a small spot, so I’d recommend takeout or delivery over dining in. For the quality of food though, it’s worth it.”
“Everything here is clean, and the food tastes fantastic. You get fresh ingredients and hearty portion sizes. What I enjoy most is the freedom to pick your own toppings. The team is welcoming and quick with service. I visit twice a week, plus parking is easy to find.”
“Their #5 sometimes uses REALLY thick filet mignon cuts and I dislike it. When you're lucky they switch to thin cuts. The thick meat is often times not cooked inside no matter how hot the soup - it tastes. I wish for the filet mignon they use regular thin cuts like other restaurants man instead of these thick pieces.
Staff is super nice and overall I love this restaurant. I just wish they switch the filet mignon cuts.”

“Absolutely amazing food! I am surprised this place does not have a huge line. The burnt ends were incredible and the prices weren’t bad at all. The owner is extremely nice and friendly. He makes everything fresh so it is absolutely worth the short wait!! Unfortunately I did not get to try his lemonade because it was sold out but I will definitely be back to try it next time.”

“My goto Shanghai restaurant over the past 7 years. It’s very hard to find good “Su” style noodle in the Bay Area. This place brings back my home town memories.”

“The best stake I ever had ,
The chef is Italian and this is a family business so of course he will take care for every single chop of meat he will buy and cook.”
“The owner was incredibly friendly, and the hospitality was wonderful! As a Korean, I’m always looking for authentic Korean restaurants, and this was definitely one of them. The tteokbokki was rich and flavorful, tasted just like the kind I had back home, such a nostalgic treat! We also asked last minute if we could add noodles to our tteokbokki, and she kindly accommodated our request. The galbi and banchan was amazing too. Everything was delicious, and we had such a great experience. Definitely recommend!”
“Oh my goodness, I wish I lived near this place. I want to try everything on the menu! It was so good, a little bit busy but you can see why once you get one bite of food. 10 out of 10 for sure. The drinks were strong, and the service was great, we had a nice Mexican gal who was very accommodating and super friendly. I wish I remembered her name. Definitely give this place a try.”
“It's small, so the wait for a dine in table can take a bit, but the food quality is worth the wait. Our family has loved everything we have tried. this is one of a handful of local restaurants my 10 year old some will never complain about!”
“Best food ever great service been to all three highly recommended 😋5 star's definitely”
“Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food, service and the vibe. It's much more spacious than most of the Chinese BBQ restaurants in the bay which also makes it less noisy.”
“Great Breakfast. Best place. Service is fantastic. Love this place. Always go there when we are in area. Nothing compares. One of a kind”
“Best noodle place we’ve ever Ben to. Quaint but great.”
“absolutely the best sushi I've had in a long time! the staff is super friendly, I will definitely be going back!”
“Amazing pizza and great service! The crust was fresh and perfectly cooked, the toppings were delicious, and everything tasted fresh. The staff were friendly and welcoming, Definitely a great place for pizza, and I’ll be coming back again!”
“Good food, close to Kolkata taste but sorshe ilish was not good at all. Rest are nice. Misti doi is awesome- must try”
“I didn't expect much coming here. I was pleasantly surprised - I had a ribeye with mushroom sauce, flavors were just right, nothing overbearing, no harsh spices to overcome poor quality meat, just a good flavorful Taiwanese steak. The soup of the day seemed unusual, chefs choice, sort of a mix of corn chowder and egg drop soup. Again, good subtle flavor combinations and surprisingly good. I'd recommend this as a good way to experience traditional Taiwanese food in the Bay Area.”
“Mr. Lau's Steak House (劉月鐵板.居酒屋) provides authentic Taiwanese-style steak meal, which left me feeling happy after eating it. The set meal includes black pepper rib eye steak (8 ounces, medium rare), lettuce salad, garlic bread, an egg, and spaghetti. The price is so inexpensive and the meal is so delicious. I definitely will be coming back again and again!”
“We are huge fans of Wadaya in Orange County and we're happy to try their Fremont location. The clearly labeled Vegan Tokyo Mazemen is fantastic and flavorful! Appreciate appetizer options and a clearly labeled menu.”
“We ate at M Dumpling the other day because we wanted to try a new spot. The restaurant is not big in size, when we came inside there were about 5-6 tables of seating. It's clean and it was quite empty then, we were sat quickly.
We got: Special Combo (Original Pork Soup Dumpling, Pan Fried Beef Potstickers, Mochi Cake, Cucumber Salad), Braised Spicy Beef Noodle Soup, and Sauteed Mixed Veggie with Garlic.
The authenticity is there and I like how each dishes were cooked just the right way. The mixed veggie they've used a corn starch mix in the sauce that's poured over it and it's definitely a style of cooking for this dish that I haven't had in a while. They get an A+ for this dish.
There were no bad dishes on what we ordered and overall I gave the dishes a taste 5 out of 5 stars. I would compare this place to a mini Ding Tai Fung but at a more affordable and a family friendly restaurant.
It's definitely got my vote to visit again in the future. If you're craving some good XLB and dishes that you don't wanna wait for hours at Ding Tai Fung, this may be the local gem you've been searching for.”
“The service was also excellent. From ordering and delivery to the on-site arrangement, everything was handled professionally and smoothly. Communication was easy, and they were very responsive to our needs, which made the whole event stress-free and enjoyable.
The ingredients were very fresh, and you can really tell they have high quality standards”
“Such a special and wonderful restaurant! You’ll get the chance to try the tasty food and also enjoy live music! 🎶 This is my go-to restaurant now. We also hosted our alumni events here and got tons of positive feedback! 🎉”
“The food is incredible—truly authentic Shanghainese cuisine! As someone who has been away from home for years, the flavors brought back so many wonderful memories and made me feel nostalgic. The staff are also incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend! We’ll definitely be back soon!”
“It was so much food. All of it tasted so good but you definitely should go with 2+ people they usually do not allow on person to dine alone , I got lucky. Enjoyed the little robot who brought out my plates too. Definitely bring your appetite.”
“Chi Xiao Guo seems to be gone. Now it’s Liu Yue Teppanyaki Cuisine. They don’t sell hot pot in summer, but the Teppanyaki cuisine is also delicious. It’s very similar to the signature Teppanyaki Noodles at Taiwan’s night markets. Love! Definitely will come again : )”
“An absolute gem off of Mowry in a shopping center. Absolutely amazing rolls, oysters and beer. Staff are great and treat you very well. Worth the stop every time”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ristorante Il Porcino is a wonderful place for a fantastic Italian dining experience! The food was delicious, fresh, and full of authentic flavors. The presentation was beautiful, the service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. Every part of the meal was enjoyable. I’d definitely come back again and highly recommend Ristorante Il Porcino!”
“I haven’t been back to this restaurant in a while, and it’s just as good as I remembered! The food is still delicious, everything is clean, the service is excellent and the music creates such a great atmosphere. I also tried their new summer special Matcha Coconut and it was so refreshing.”
“My dad went to pick up Chinese food at New Yong Kang, which is where we sometimes eat. We used to dine there years ago, but we normally do that for take out not. We probably just don’t have time to dine in since we have things to do.
It’s been a while since I last visited their restaurant. So I don’t know how it looks like now. I think it’s like other Chinese restaurants, but I’ll have to check it out if I get a chance.
Anyways, the food is good there. They gave us good portions which is enough for a family for at least 4. Some dishes are smaller than ones, which is why we don’t get too much of them. For the noodles, they separate them from other ingredients and we do have to mix them. I guess it’s to prevent spills when transporting the food back home or other destinations.
I’ll have to take a look at their menus and see what they have since I’m not that familiar with it. Again, it’s my parents that usually go there.”
“Amazing taste ! Loved the presentation ! I ordered Two tier cake- bottom vanilla cake with Nutella cream cheese Top tier chocolate cake with Nutella cream cheese ! Mouth watering taste.”
“This is our go to place for korean food in Fremont for years. The food has been consistently good. We always order beef bulgogi & tofu soup combo for our family. We love the beef bulgogi. It has sweet savory sauce with tender beef. The tofu soup can be hit or miss. We got seafood white soup (not spicy) for our kiddo - it was good but I personally prefer medium spice for more depth of flavor.
The only downside was the parking. The parking was limited and got crowded during lunch or dinner time. So, most of the time we parked on the street nearby or we just do take out.”
“Kinda my favorite place til recently. Waiter F’d blamed me. 4 dined, we gave our order. 1 person changed their order, so 3 meals ended up being the same, then there was mine. They ended changing my order instead of the other person, he argued with me until he realized he messed up, never said sorry, and then still got my order wrong by cook my salmon well instead of veggies, which they forgot to add, but I paid anyways, to go.”
“Had a great experience at the Olive Garden in Fremont with delicious pastas and quick service. Graci B was an amazing dinning associate and even the manager stopped by to check in. Will recommend ✅”
“Best food ever great service been to all three highly recommended 😋5 star's definitely”
“We visited this place for dinner and were able to get a table without reservations. The food was delicious, we got the chicken lollipop, chicken manchow soup and the triple schezwan fried rice which came with Manchurian and gravy. Indo-Chinese food here is definitely a must-try. We also got the sizzling brownie sundae which hit all the right spots! Will definitely visit again!”
“Great food! Love ❤️ all that we ordered. And the bubble teas, too”
“la mas Buena pizza 🍕 The best pizza like never never lik this for real”
“Loved the sushi here - the fish is high quality, price is good for the quality of the fish, and the ambiance is nice: clean, spacious and brightly lit.
Highly recommend the omakase: 10 pieces for $46. The presentation of the nigiri was excellent and it was all delicious.”
“The pho here was amazing! The broth was rich and flavorful, and the beef was perfect. A great spot for dinner during my business trip. The prices are on the higher side but reasonable for the quality, so it's worth considering. I will definitely come back!”
“Stopped by today on recommendation that their bolani is delicious, and it definitely did not disappoint. This place is now under new management. Service was pleasant the interior remodeled. Place is clean with smiles all over. Will be back again very soon.”
“The seafood salad here was delicious, and the salmon skin was baked to a perfect crisp – it was fantastic!
The bento box took a little longer to arrive, but the salmon was grilled perfectly, although the tempura was cold .
Service is friendly and fast !”
“nice remodel of interior and parking lot. Great bar tenders with Lisa C. and Dena Rena'. Also Kim and Amarae have been wonderful during the afternoon.”
“Really good and friendly service! Can’t ask for anything more”
“Sincerely one of my favorite food trucks ever! The owners are the best and remembered me from their food truck pod visits in SF pre pandemic—finding when they’d visit nearby felt like a warm hug from family! Da Situation is my ultimate fav and their meats are -chefs kiss- — get that fried egg too! You won’t regret it!”
“Great service! Amazing food!!! The place is so clean, and very welcoming. Met the owner Bharath, he was very kind. My favorite dish was the butter chicken with garlic naan. By the way, they have THE BEST Mango Lassi!”
“Bomb 💣.com not bad for the price I got full of the large poke bowl”
“We visited for the first time Labor Day September 2026. My husband and I are staying at the residence Inn. But we walked next-door to the restaurant at Marriott. We were looking for something close to get dinner. When we walked in, it was quiet, elegant, and spacious. The attendant took our order and was very friendly and courteous. We had the grilled cheese and tomato soup and the turkey avocado sandwich with romaine salad. The food was delicious. And the environment welcoming. I would visit again and would recommend.”
“I really think this is a great hotpot restaurant, especially if you like spicy food. The food quality is also very good. Honestly think it deserves more recognition!”
“Not sure how this is less than 4 stars considering it holds its own weight in an area with many other great restaurants. It's a traditional Cantonese seafood restaurant with the craziest selection of crabs, lobsters, and fish. We've celebrated family events with their set menus which were phenomenally authentic and delicious, and gotten takeout for regular dinners which arrived perfectly cooked still.
Service is extremely attentive (although don't expect warm fuzzy pleasantries if it's busy) and they've often gifted us dessert which was very kind of them.
Definitely a local gem.”
“Many coworkers recommended this place that made authentic Biryani. The flavors were great and had us eat through our entire meal even when we were feeling full half through. Looking forward to coming back to try other options! Attentive service and lively atmosphere given we dined in during lunch time.”
“Stopped by Mom’s Tofu House and had a really good experience. The food was fresh, comforting, and full of flavor, with the tofu dishes especially standing out.
The place has a cozy, casual atmosphere and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout the meal. Great spot for a warm and satisfying Korean meal”
“I rarely write reviews but this is an absolute gem - very cozy neighborhood spot in Fremont. I’ve lived in major cities (SF, NYC, London) and eaten a lot of Japanese food - and the quality of the food here is on par if not better.
Very friendly nice staff. Anna started a convo and they’ve been open 30 years, old fashioned style (no food delivery hustle and bustle). She seems close with other customers (asking about and congratulating re: college admissions).
The food was homestyle but also polished for great value- $30 for 3 item dinner combo comes with soup and salad, $3 extra for chirashi appetizer. Veggies with the grilled items were a nice touch, and the rice was cooked well.
Will definitely become a regular spot, it should become one of yours too!”
“We came for our 30th anniversary while Strizzi's is celebrating it's 40th, so we got soup and salad gratis. Not just a cup or a small salad but full blown servings. My clam chowder was among the best I ever had. The food was great - we had the lasagna and spaghetti with (3 big) meatballs. Our server, Jawad, was among the friendliest ever, and took the time to chat and take our picture. A lot of servers do that, but he was just a wonderfully friendly guy. Get there and see if he will serve you before he gets through college! We had not heard of this place before and took a flyer. Big score!”
“The grilled food is made to order so it might get slower to serve if there were a lot of orders to fill and indeed there are a lot of online order on Saturdays.
Ordered chicken tikka and lamb seekh kebab. Both were juicy and tasty. Good jobs, chef :)”
“Amazing place for yakitori food, chef Sherman really knows quality and simplicity for yakitori food. I highly recommend this place especially when you get togethers with great friends. 5 stars out of 5”

“This is an amazing restaurant! Their food is great. We’ve catered big orders from them twice, and they’ve never let us down—their prices are fair, and they’re always on time. They have a wide variety of halal options, and their staff is personable and friendly. 10/10 recommend.”

“We are from Connecticut, and during a recent trip to the Bay Area, we had the extreme good fortune to try the Afghan Awasana Kabob House. Oh my ... what an experience! The food was superb … an epicurean delight, but also plentiful, and very reasonably priced. The qabuli palow - a lamb shank dish was a standout, and the squash bolani - a stuffed flatbread was out of this world. The owner was very friendly during dinner, only to be surpassed by what happened after our dinner. Upon leaving, our car would not start. The owner offered to jump start our car. When that did not work, he offered us a ride back to the house where we were staying ... which we gratefully accepted. On the way, while we were thanking him profusely, he indicated that this was not an imposition as he routinely gave rides to his workers. I was moved to tears with his generosity. The Afghan Awasana Kabob House stimulated my palate, satiated my appetite, and above all, nourished my soul with renewed faith in the kindness of humanity. A truly memorable evening that will not soon be forgotten.”

“I tried the mango yogurt drink at UMe Tea in Fremont and it was so good!🥭🧋 The yogurt was creamy, refreshing, and had a really nice fruity flavor without being too heavy.. I especially loved the texture and the toppings—it made the drink extra fun.
The Fremont location is also really cute, and the staff were friendly and the service was quick. Definitely a great spot when you’re craving something refreshing and different from regular milk tea. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their yogurt drinks! 💕”
“Many years ago I tried some dishes at Chipotle and I thought it was a great chain restaurant, never tried again but actually bought stock of the company. Now since the stock is not growing, I tried it again the other day and I know why the sales is down.
The place is in a big shopping center with many parking spaces, no trouble there. The restaurant is clean and modern although not very crowded at 6PM dinner time, assuming all take outs.
So there's a new Pollo Asado Bowl on the wall, so I wanted to try. Here's why I think the sales is going down. There's a young girl working at the counter getting food for my bowl, everything I asked for is served with a half shallowed spoon full. There seems to be no measurement for each spoon, it's up to the server, if she's happy the spoon is full, tired or not happy the spoon is half full, so she must be very tired that day. Then came to the main chicken cubes, I counted 6 little pieces on a $12 bowl of the chicken asada with beans, rice, lettuce. The whole bowl still tasted great, just the quantity is skimpy which I'm not very fond of. Anyhow, will I try again, may be, when I feel there's no Mexican restaurant to eat and there are tons of them in Fremont.”
“It was our first time to go to this restaurant. The food was good, cooked fresh and hot. We liked the food very much and our server was wonderful. Looking forward to go again. #vegnchatcuisine #papihanandy #review #fremont #california #vegetarian #chholebhature #thali #vegthali #restaurant”
“Upon entry, I found the associates courteous with their smiles and slight bowing from the waist. A very Asian trait that, on top of the recording of the music of internationally renowned Arjit Singh in the background, added authenticity to the place. The servers were professional yet very warm and friendly. I ordered the flat bread with broccoli and onions, with a request to tone down the spiciness because of a previously bad experience with Indian food in San Diego. The flat bread was served hot with the delicious aroma of the spices wafting from the generous helping of the round bread that filled the entire 12" diameter pan! I was able to see and enjoy the taste of both the broccoli and onions in the flat bread. It was even served with a side of sliced fresh onions in vinegar and soy sauce together with another side of white sauce that tasted like cream of broccoli soup. Everything on the table, including a complimentary mango-with-yogurt drink, was a perfect blend, and I did not have to drench the table napkin nor my shirt with my sweat due to the level of spices tolerated by Indians but excessive to non-Indians. They gave me, a non-Indian, a spicy meal that I relished earlier this evening! Kudos to the entire staff!”

“Fast service… pay once you are done eating. Do not feel like in fast food setting. You pick your seat and order what you want. Awesome filter coffee. They have Dosa happy hour. And quality of food is great. Even the 3 chutney they give you is tasty. Overall one of the best in town.”
“The Afghan shir yakh was absolutely delicious! 🍦❤ It was so creamy, rich, and full of flavor, topped beautifully with pistachios. The taste was amazing and it was honestly one of the best shir yakh I’ve had. The restaurant was also very clean and welcoming, with a beautiful and comfortable atmosphere. I truly enjoyed my visit and can’t wait to go back again! Highly recommended! 😍”
“This is genuinely one of the most neighborly locations in the whole Bay. Food is amazing, I have been going here every Saturday, and unlike the corporate fast food slop, this place actually has good ingredients, and would even let me off a few cents when I was at my low. Portion size is great, with my garlic fries filled to the brim, and their ghost pepper sauce is to die for. Food gets ready pretty quick, within 10 mins and very rarely going over. Atmosphere is great with a nice outdoor seating and a good view of the hills. Always will find people eating on the outdoor tables.”
“Authentic South Indian Vegetarian Food for a Special Family Occasion
We recently had a family ceremony at home and ordered food from Dakshin Cafe. The food was absolutely delicious and made the occasion even more special.
Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and authentically South Indian. The dishes had the comforting, traditional taste of homemade food, with great quality and care evident in every item. Everyone truly enjoyed the meal.
Dakshin Cafe is an excellent choice not only for dining in but also for a home celebration. We would happily order from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for tasty, authentic South Indian vegetarian food or catering for a family gathering.
Who said man cannot live on food alone? Let him visit Dakshin Cafe.”
“I only had mocha frappe. Which was pretty good. The coffee itself tasted better than Starbucks. I know it’s only mocha frappe but that’s one of those drinks if I see it on the menu then I have to try it. There is a lot of seating area. There is a bit of wait time but they take the time to make the drinks right.”
“Delicious food with amazing flavors! The biryani was aromatic and perfectly cooked, and the raita complemented it really well. They also have some special items on the menu definitely ask for and try the Chef’s Special items. Great taste, good portions, and a must-visit place.”
“Absolutely amazing food! I am surprised this place does not have a huge line. The burnt ends were incredible and the prices weren’t bad at all. The owner is extremely nice and friendly. He makes everything fresh so it is absolutely worth the short wait!! Unfortunately I did not get to try his lemonade because it was sold out but I will definitely be back to try it next time.”
