Dragon City
The food was amazing and service was exceptional here! Kind of pricey but it's to be expected for being in downtown Pleasanton. Our server was very sweet, patient, and attentive. Everything we ordered was just delicious. Very flavorful and fresh. I regret not getting a photo of every dish we ordered! The restaurant itself was nice and clean. We will definitely return the next time we are in the area. Thank you for the great lunch!
Visited this restaurant on a rainy evening in November. Who doesn't love hot Chinese food in such weather, when you also have good vegetarian options available too. Garlic Eggplant appetizer was on the sweeter side and was cooked perfectly. Chow Mein was also very good. Kung Pao Tofu was lacked flavor and gravy. Was expecting an explosion in my mouth but there was none. Service was fast and every dish was served hot and fresh.
CA NOODLE
We ordered braised beef noodle soup, house special pork burger and the sliced pork with garlic sauce. We liked the noodle soup the best, the soup and the beef is so rich and tasty, and the noodle has the texture of hand pulled noodles. The pork burger is also yummy. The sliced pork with garlic sauce can use stronger garlic flavor though. Overall the food is a solid four star.
I recently visited CA Noodle, which left a big impression on me. The menu had a variety of traditional dishes, and I especially liked the seaweed salad with garlic. It was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with a slight garlicky touch. The hot soups were another highlight—rich, flavorful, and filling, perfect for warming up on a chilly day. The large portions are impressive. The dumplings were also delicious; they had a soft dough and were filled with savory ingredients. I recommend them to anyone who loves delicious Chinese cuisine!
Gourmet House
The dim sum portions were all quite generous, and everything tasted great. It’s definitely worth trying a variety of dishes. The only downside was the BBQ pork bun—the dough was a bit tough and could use some improvement. But everything else was absolutely delicious!
I love the fried rice dishes here. Their thin noodle stir fry dishes looked good but it misses the mark for beef chow fun and dim sum for me. Dim sum is okay. Not bad but not great. Beef chow fun was too greasy without good wok chi. The soy sauce flavor was not able to come through. Although not too salty and the beef used is generous and not low quality. Their fried rice has better wok chi and flavor is on point.
Panda Express
Got home and got the wrong stuff. My husband ordered fried rice with teriyaki chicken and received a chow mein bowl instead. I ordered the chow mein plate with king pao chicken and honey walnut shrimp, paid extra for shrimp just to get broccoli and beef instead. I don’t understand why it’s so hard to get peoples ordered right especially for things they pay extra.
I'm in Fremont for work and craving Chinese food closest place around Panda Express on Osgood so I go in and look at the menu and there's brand new steak and shrimp firecracker entree.... Sounds delicious but not sure if it is delicious so I asked about the sauce and I asked if I may try just a little taste of the sauce maybe a green bean something very small I DIDN'T ASK FOR A FREAKING STEAK OR SHRIMP I ASKED FOR A LITTLE PORTION OF A VEGETABLE JUST SO I COULD TASTE THE SAUCE BEFORE I ORDERED... They tell me no they can't let me taste it they don't give out samples. I said okay and if I order it and I don't like it? The clerk just rolled his eyes at me said yeah we could probably trade it for something now why would I want to WASTEmy time ??? I I I mean really I'm supposed to order it have it packaged up pay for it go sit down taste it and decided I like it what a freaking crack worst customer service ever no wonder the place was empty... I walked out..
Local Cafe
Probably the nicest HK cafe in Fremont. The baked pork chop rice was fantastic and it had egg and hot dog. Milk tea is not bad, could've been stronger. The hot plates looked great at the next table. The vibe is interesting. It's like hip and cool and they even have open mic karaoke at night and a walk of fridge filled with beer. But it also looked like it wasn't maintained in a way? The fridges has other groceries in it so it looked like a mom's and pops hole in the wall instead. And the fun area by the front door looks abandoned. It would be a cool place they tidied up a bit.
Food: The Hainan Chicken is pretty good with portion of chicken (black meat), rice and chicken soup. I’d say the black meat’s meat and skin ratio is not too ideal but acceptable. The Beef in Egg Drop Sauce is very much recommended! It’s a big portion, it’s enough for 2 or even 3 to share! The Hot and Sour Soup is not the traditional flavor, so I wouldn’t recommend to people who are looking for the light texture or Taiwanese style. Service: the staff is nice though they are very busy. We were lucky enough to sit by the service station, so we grabbed our own chopsticks and takeout boxes instead. Ambiance, casual but viby at the same time. It’s very comfortable. We see family and friends groups dining here at the time we were there and they have high chair with round table as well.
Panda Express
I went here at 8:25 pm on a Friday night. They close at 9:00 so I thought I had plenty of time. When I walked in there were 2 people in line in front of me, 2 tables had seated customers and a group of 3 came in behind me. Almost all of their hot pots in the buffet were empty and clean. I believe 5 choices were left 1 was fried rice which there wasn't enough left to choose as a whole serving so they gave me chow mein to make up the difference. There was 4 egg rolls left. The guy in front of me took 2 and I got one. I wanted cream stuffed won tons they didn't have any cooked. I felt bad because of the 3 people behind me only one ordered because they didn't have the things they wanted cooked. When I had asked them if they were making any more food they said no no more tonight. Why not?? It's an open restaurant they should have food available for their customers to be able to order anything on the menu unless they were out of it especially if requested and it's 35 minutes till closing time. They chef was still there and 3 other employees were cleaning up the kitchen. If your business closes at 9 then close at 9 and clean after the store is closed and by all means if customers drive to your business to get something and your chef is still there please cook them what they came for instead of leaving them whatever cold food you have left out in the buffet that looked like it had been there long enough. The way this place handled it makes me not want to return.
This particular Panda Express location is ok, not above average. Ordered 2 items with fried rice and noodle, the serving for entree portion is bad, I had to order more food since I was not given enough portion for my meal. Looks like the serving portion is for kids, not for adult 😟
Love Spring Cafe
Came in during soft opening. Tried the chicken congee, it's top notch. Enjoyed the meal so much I ordered noodles to go.
CASH ONLY. I stopped in for soft opening. Wasn't able to order anything as I saw CASH ONLY sign. I had to leave immediately due to that. Most likely won't ever be back. Good luck
Northwest China Cuisine
Total Score: 3.33 Bathroom: N/A Didn’t use the bathroom Customer Service: 1.5/5 No service basically except serving the food. Overheard their convos in Chinese and apparently they were out of a lot of things and kept on replacing things with other things in door dash orders?? Ambiance: 3/5 Some “fancy” decor (they had a LV statue and some goats??) but the tables were weirdly sticky and why was there nobody here???? Food: 1.5/5 Got the liang pi and it was just okay. Very spicy so only really tasted the chili oil. Veggies/sides/addons were minimal so wasn’t really a cohesive dish. Could have made this at home cuz apparently it wasn’t hand made. Wow: 0/1 Normal Chinese restaurant Total Score = (CS + 2*AM + 5*FOOD + WOW)/0.9
Northwest China Cuisine is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates bold, flavorful Chinese food. The cumin lamb is a standout dish—it’s packed with smoky, spicy goodness. The noodles are made fresh to order, and every dish is perfectly seasoned. I’ve also tried their fried rice and spicy chicken with peanuts, both of which were delicious. The service is excellent—attentive without being intrusive. The restaurant has a cozy vibe, making it perfect for both a casual meal or a special night out. Highly recommend!
Fu Lam Moon Restaurant
I used to go here all the time as a child. We drove up from San Jose. Only to find out the restaurant wasn’t open despite the hours online. Then we met the owner or some lady and she was like oh today we’re running late. Ma’am it’s 12 pm.. and we wanted dim sum but she said there was none. It’s a yum cha restaurant for a reason? She also couldn’t speak Cantonese despite owning a Cantonese restaurant.
I was searching for a dim sum place and this restaurant’s name came up with decent reviews. I went there but found out that they no longer serve dim sum, only the regular Chinese food menu. We ended up ordered congee and lobster noodles and those were quite good.
Cloudland Rice Noodle
I ordered the single-cook rice noodles (小锅米线) instead of Yunnan rice noodle's claim to fame, 过桥米线 (house special rice noodles). The rice noodle's texture tasted slightly different from my memory but still feels good. Flavor is closer to Sichuan than Yunnan where the shop is supposed to originate from. But that suites me well. The owner recommends the house special for my next visit. And my next visit will be very soon! (I am willing to give 5 stars even though I only had one dish that is not house special. I will update if the house special disappoints.) Cloudland Rice Noodle has a small storefront, but is very visible in Cedar Center. I arrived shortly after 6pm on a weekend and got seated quickly. The owner says they had been here for 8 years although I felt that I had been in the mall more recently than that. Their interior decor is not elaborate, but very comfortable.
Regular rice noodle. It tastes ok but I don’t think it is exact authentic Yunnan rice noodle. We also tried the Yunnan local snack: fried milk curd. It is crispy and has abundant milk flavor and a little sourness to it. It is made of goat milk. Be sure that you are ok with goat milk before ordering. The last thing was chicken cooked in steam pot. Avoid this dish. It is extremely small and I don’t love the taste.
New Hwong Kok
Here's the review with the added information: "Great take out place for roasted duck and pork. My fav is duck roasted plate which came with rice and steamed cabbage. Loved the duck flavor. It's in the lions supermarket complex, just outside the supermarket. Not recommended for dining-in. It's a quick grab the food and take away."
This is one of those places to get your lunch. However, you’re better off doing a take out rather than dining in because of how bland the atmosphere is. Still boxes at the front. I remember dining here when I was a lot younger. Wasn’t really looking bad there at that time. The food was slimy and oily. I consider it below average tbh. It’s cheap at the bright side. I highly recommend going to other restaurants if you want to get better quality of duck and chicken.
Panda Express
Haven’t really been on Panda Express for a while, but I decided to come back here to see where it’s at now. Pretty much everything is the same except that the bowl size must have changed. Back in college, they used to be bigger, but now they’re slightly reduced, which is fine. They also constantly change the calories from some of the foods. Dunno why though. I’m still surprised that they’re not that priced heavy compared to most Chinese joints. Maybe because it’s a popular fast food chain, which is probably how they’re still sustaining affordable prices.
It's a very typical Panda Express, often very busy, especially in the evenings around dinner time. Plenty of parking in the shopping mall. For my plate I got half veggies, half chow mein, and then teriyaki chicken no sauce, and broccoli beef.
