The store was clean and the dining table was nice.
Group dining is possible for families, and the service is friendly and good.”
“I always have to doctor my Ramen to taste the way that I want it, but this came exactly the way that I love my Ramen! The broth was delicious, the noodles were perfectly done, and the spice was existent but not overwhelming. As a big back, i approve”
“All you can eat hotpot was great. Every option you could imagine at the buffet plus they had their own boba tea station, ice cream machines and more. Halal options available for all and very good quality tom yum broth.”
“AMAZING. SO SO GOOD. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, with generous portions and very well priced, but the owner was so incredibly kind, funny, and sweet. They were able to seat us, a party of 8, so last minute and made us laugh the entire time! We had such an amazing time here, and will be come back!!!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Delicious rice noodle soup at a reasonable price. Many flavors of soups you can choose from. One bowl of noodles rice is big enough for two people to share. Fried egg is a special combination with the soup.
We had a complimentary brown sugar tofu pudding during our 2nd trip for lunch. It's great value if you take the set menus or order it through Fantuan apps.”
“Absolutely bomb of spicy Asian cuisine. I found this place by accident one night and after going back a second time, I’m hooked and will be a regular here. The food quality is very high with the right balance of numbing spice. The atmosphere feels new and fun. This place
puts so many Chinese food places to shame.”
“Good food, service and clean, well lit restaurant. Tried a variety of items. You scan a qr code and order from the table. We had the onion pancake (good, a little oily as expected), dumplings (tasty), dry beef bowl (nice mix of veggies and beef. Has peanuts and fries), green pepper fish noodle soup (photo on menu does not match dish and the green pepper isnt bell pepper, it is a little spicy) and lamb skewers (well seasoned). Would be nice to have the smaller items (dumpling, pancake, skewers) served first as an appetizer and the larger items as main dishes. Items were served as they were ready so we got the dumplings served last
Parking: Mall parking”
Restaurants with Delivery
“This BBQ is among top 3 which I’ve had in CA and WA. I like their eggplants the most. Best one ever! The wine in Chinese traditional container brought me back to the ancient times which is really fun. Only thing is that it is so busy that the server make us feel a bit rush. But their service quality overall is good.
Parking: Sufficient parking in the plaza, even during dinner time.”

“I've been a regular at Ok Noodle in Newark for years and can't say enough about their authentic Chinese cuisine. The highlight of my weekly visits is their incredible hand-pulled noodles, which are truly a work of art. The texture is perfect - chewy and satisfying, and the flavor is rich without being overwhelming.
One of the things I appreciate most about Ok Noodle is their commitment to using MSG-free ingredients. As someone who's sensitive to MSG, I can always enjoy my meal without worrying about a headache later.
If you're a fan of authentic Chinese food, especially hand-pulled noodles, I highly recommend giving Ok Noodle a try. You won't be disappointed!
Additional Tips:
Must-try dish: Chili Oil Noodle, Lamb noodle, Liang Pi (cold dish), beef egg tomato noodle with thin flat noodle.
Parking: There's usually plenty of parking in the nearby lot.
Hours: Check their website or Google for the most up-to-date hours. I think they are not open Wednesday

“The price is low, the food is tasty and the portion is large. We ordered a few and none is very spicy. The whole fish, black bass is very fresh and cooked with flavor. Smoked pork has strong smoke flavor. The husband-wife team is from Sichuan. The chef cooks slowly with care. Our cold beef mixture dish came out last after 40 minutes.”
Outdoor Dining
“I like the quality of their ramen. The portion, the thickness of the char siew and the onsen egg, delicious! If i can suggest one thing, it will the hotness of the soup. They have to serve it piping hot and it will be bring heaven to earth. We ate there today and the soup is just warm.. so maybe next time i visit here i hope they will make it more hot. Thanks!”
“A friend suggested this place to me yesterday so of course I had to pop in to check it out. I walked in and immediately noticed how clean it was. Not only was the owner there, but he was super friendly and told me and my daughter about how he makes the ice cream himself with the help of his wife. I really don't think I've tried creamier ice cream. Was VERY impressed with everything about this place and will be coming back with family and telling friends to go here as well!”
“Lobster Bisque central. Always scorching hot, the bread bowl is warmed to the perfect temperature to enjoy through the entire eat. The combo basket was perfectly crisp and tasty. The super warm food was paired perfectly with their draft select beers. It was an excellent dinner for me and my babe.”
“The environment of this restaurant is very good, very clean and tidy. The iron plate is very appetizing as soon as it is served. The aroma is rich and very tempting. It tastes great, both in color and aroma. Their boba milk tea is also delicious.”
Online Reservation Available
“Stopped by for some vegan dinner. We had the vegan momo, tofu noodle soup and tofu curry. Food was good, the front desk guy was super friendly and helpful when we ordered. It is a take away place, but they have some tables if you want to eat there (we sat down for dinner)..
Vegetarian options: Vegan and vegetarian options”
“Was looking for a boba spot/something sweet after having dinner in this plaza and TeaTop was just about to close. They have a wide variety of drinks and toppings, as well as games and seating inside. Lately green milk teas with boba have been my go to and they really have been giving me a caffeine boost and keeping me awake when I need it. So I got their Signature Alpine Green Milk Tea with boba, less sweet with less sugar. I really enjoyed it. The workers were very kind, quick, and friendly. Nice spot to hang out with friends, I also like how they post their top drinks on the menu and the walls. My friends got some other drinks that were also really good. Something with egg pudding and red bean. Parking is super easy since it’ located within a shopping plaza.”
“I’m from out of town, business traveling from Reno & we chose this little hidden gem! The mole was the BEST mole I had EVER had in my life. The chicken would shred so easily, the rice has a HUGE kick of flavor! The hostess & waiter were very friendly & welcoming! Saved this restaurant for future visits!”
“As I opened up my plate—packed to the brim with chow mein, orange chicken, and sweet & sour chicken—I was nearly blinded by the golden sparkle of the orange chicken. Unfortunately, in my awe of the orange chicken, I found a short, type 2A strand of hair. I knew this couldn’t have been mine because I have long, thick, luscious, nearly curly hair (somewhere between 2C and 3A). I pulled that jawn out of my food and kept it pushing.I’m not one for formalities, so I was able to move past this. It’s up to you to decide if you’d do the same.Aside from this mishap, the food was deesh, and the service was even better. Will be returning.”
“Great combo beef Phô (all the good stuff, including tripe and tendon), a large amount of meat, plus your choice of noodles... I got egg noodles and loved it.
Served in under 5 minutes...
... Huge bowl, delicious ? broth.
Considering how expensive going out to eat is today, this is the best phô deal around.
I highly recommend this restaurant... It deserves a higher score on Google.”
“I have been eating in restaurants in the Bay Area for more than 20 years. It is definitely our family's favorite, from young to old... It has been open since 1994. In such a highly competitive catering industry, it has been 30 years, and every dish tastes delicious. Change. The first meal every time my son returns to the Bay Area, and the last meal every time he leaves home, is always a family dinner here. Coordinate positioning: Newark, East Bay.The eighth picture shows the proprietress Nancy taking a photo with her family. Highly recommended to everyone, I hope their business will always be prosperous and my son will feel like he is back home every time he comes home.”
“Great food, the restaurant definitely needs more attention in my opinion. The food was great, was full but not too full to the point I feel sick. The sides were also delicious. If you’re in the area, would highly recommend going here. Definitely worth the drive to try it.”

“Menu is huge and portions as well. We ordered one soup and once rice for 2 persons and we brought food home. There was one brisket soup that was very sour, be careful when ordering if you do not like it that way, the other one was delicious.”
“Great food and friendly service. I will go again and definitely recommend to my friends. Simply best!”

“Juanita is a cool friendly auntie that just beams awesome sauce. I was craving turkey tail and she the only one who makes it well. She got the flavor down on everything. So far, no bad dishes. Loved it so much, I went yesterday for the first time and I’m preparing to go there in half an hour. I’m currently finishing the leftovers from last night. Just found my new favorite restaurant. Prices are great, food is plentiful, and auntie is cool af. Five stars all around.”
“I didn’t get want anything from the bakery at the moment since I had a pastry early morning, but I decided to give this place a try and try one of their milk teas. Milk Tea is alright, but some Ube didn’t blend in with the drink.
It seems like that the place is still renovating since there are no TVs turned on and that there are rarely any decorations. Some stuff I’m seeing should be put at the backend. I also saw pictures of a large grey teddy bear sitting on the chair, which is quite nice.
I’ll max this rating up for four stars at the time being since I didn’t get anything from the bakery. I’m hoping that this place improves soon. Also, some items I see from online such as cakes are not displayed at the display boxes. Perhaps, they are sold out? Remains a mystery at the moment.”
“Me encantó si lo recomiendo 👍🏻”
“PSA they have dessert dosas now. For the adventurous eater, I’m sure.
Been coming here for a few years, since they opened.
Consistently excellent dosas. Probably the only dosa place I drag people to from out of town.
This used to be a Mexican restaurant so a lot of the lively colors have been kept.
Pretty inexpensive and a great place to go to after a busy Costco shopping session next door.
Gets busy on the weekends. Come around 5pm on a weekday to get quick service and the freshest of the day.
The staff are incredibly polite and professional. Packaging is great.

“We were across the street at Newark high school and wanted some boba. This little location just inside the new park mall offers a huge selection of a wide variety of different drinks. Service was quick and drinks were very tasty. Would definitely try something else next time!
Parking: The mall wasn't very busy so we parked right in front.
Wheelchair accessibility: There are no steps to get from the parking lot to the mall and into the mall. Very accessible!”
“I hear co workers talk about Mexican food where go.

Vegetarian options: Papusas with no meat
Kid-friendliness: Food is ideal for kids
Wheelchair accessibility: Curbs have wheelchair access. Seating is perfect for handcap.people”
“Food was prepared quickly and tasty. Nigiri had a bit too much rice and the wasabi/horseradish was a bit moist.
Location is a bit hard to find - it's in the path next to the 99 Ranch.”
“Tried their weekend buffet. The food tasted really good ! They also served hot naan and puri bread. Overall a nice experience.

“Limited vegetarian options but the ones I had were really good! I tried the veggie burrito with red sauce to make it wet and that was great! The quesadilla looked more like a burrito (not sure if there was some mixup in the delivery, the tortilla was grilled though so I'm not sure) but the taste was really good. They were both packed with lots of rice beans guac cheese bell peppers onions etc.. The size of each of those is quite big (the 2 items were excess for 2 people). A few additional veggies like mushrooms would make them even better.
Vegetarian options: Limited options but very good”

“I would love to give this place a 10 star ⭐⭐⭐ I'm telling you this is the best place who has the best house fried rice I have ever tasted 😋 the food is so damn good it'll make you spend damn near your whole paycheck 😜 If you haven't tried it you definitely not eating right‼️🔥”
“If you enjoy a true classic fish and chips, then please know the negative comments about this place do not apply! The white fish inside the batter is always cooked well and doesn't have a funky after taste. The batter itself is very lightly seasoned and has a great bite with a nice crunch. Sure, they don't put all kinds of seasonings on it or loads of salt and pepper, but then that wouldn't be the traditional kind of fish and chips. To go with it, they have the most delicious tarter sauce you can find anywhere. It's so good. Especially with the deep fried prawns. Other than the fish and chips, fried prawns with a order of large tarter sauce, I haven't tried much else on the menu. But there is no need lol those items stand all on their own. Please, at least try this place and make up your own mind. I don't think you'll regret it.”
“Only a few people here. But I can refill my beverage. Clean tables, 3-sides windows have very good views of the plaza and nearby streets. I would recommend if I could get more vegetables in between my double burger layers.
Parking: More than enough parking lots in this plaza.”
“Jessica with the long hair, thank you for recommending me and my co workers to come In and enjoy this delicious ice cream. If you every needed a excellent reference or would consider modeling In several of my Real Estate ads & commercials, excellent salary call me at 707-720-5739. Thank you, God Blessing In Jesus Christ Amen.”
“Nice and fresh food, Warm to the Table, Friendly Staff There Also, next Time I will get the HotPot Cooking”
“Great food, good portions, and a nice atmosphere. I had the fried Chicken bento and it was a nice combo. The veggies were well cooked and seasoned, the chicken was flavorful and well marinated, and the rice was fluffy but separated into grains as it should.
A very little nonsense eatery. Go with other people so you can try more than the one dish, because most of the dishes I saw coming out looked great.”

“One of my favorite noodle places!! So spicy and so many great greens and sides. My family comes here whenever we can because it’s such a hit. My first time eating here, I poured all the hot spicy sauce into my noodles and I don’t think I’ve ever eaten anything that spicy…”
“Definitely one of my favorite places, it has a wide variety of sweet and savory crepes; ice cream, smoothies, tea, French fries, fried calamari, etc., without a doubt a good place to indulge yourself with a delicious appetizer; And to complete your experience the staff is very attentive and helpful.”
“Service was fast and friendly. It was very clean and safe inside. The lime ice cream was yummy, right amount of sweet and tart flavor. My husband loved the Uchepos too but didn’t get pics of either because they ate too fast. I got the fresas con crema and added mango to it and it was sooo good.”
“I visited Tastea in Newark and had an amazing experience! I ordered the Lychee Peachee drink, which was incredibly refreshing and perfectly balanced in flavor. The combination of lychee and peach was delightful. The staff provided excellent service—friendly, efficient, and attentive. The overall atmosphere of the place was welcoming, making it a great spot to enjoy quality boba. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more drinks. Highly recommend!”
“Been supporting this place most of my teens and college years, I recommend this place to anyone looking for a lot of variety such as , pho , Banh Mi , snacks , drinks and anyone looking for ready to go food. Come early sometimes lines can be long. Expect delays too , sometimes they are short staff and get help from security which really is a great help to them.”

“My family and I have been visiting this buffet for years, and it’s always a treat! Especially love the oysters 🦪 🍴✨ We come about once a year and love the wide variety of dishes available—there’s something for everyone. 🥗🍤🍰 It’s a tradition we always look forward to! 🎉
Something I noticed this time around is that they sing happy birthday to those celebrating in the restaurant. 🎂🎶 While it’s a nice touch, my suggestion to the owner would be to update the birthday song. The one they played back-to-back felt outdated and a bit creepy. 😬 A rotation of different birthday songs could make the experience even better!”
