Love this place. They have really good prices and you get a lot of food. They are fast and the food is great. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Restaurant is clean and welcoming. They have the option to either get plates/combos to go from the hot and ready bar or you can be seated in the dining area and order to eat there (just not right now due to covid-19). The dining area decor is very cool too in my opinion.

Wow! 25 years of living in fremont and I just found out about this place. My family has been here once a week for the past month and plan to keep this place in rotation. Staff is friendly and food hits the spot. Giving it 5 stars because I miss places like this. Ditch the panda and come support this place.

Sabreen Sarah Yaqubi

The workers here were so accommodating!! I let them know about my sesame allergy and they prepared me chicken with veggies and steamed white rice with no sesame oil at no extra cost even though they had to make it fresh. Also, it tasted great. Portion is okay for the price!

I just found this small little gem of a spot recently and I have already been there a few times. Their customer service is amazing and their food is mouth watering, fresh, delicious and hearty. My new favorite place to come for a delicious plate.

Fell in love with this place after trying their bbq pork, they get it right!!! Also tried their salt and pepper jalapeno wings, also amazing. I eventually went in person and found out they also do Panda Express/Cafeteria style food as well that's pre-made. You can order up to a 4 item tray, and they are super generous with the portions AND the pricing. This is my new favorite Chinese takeout by a mile. Service is incredibly warm as well.

I came here for the first time because I was very hungry and wanted food right away. The food was fast and delicious. Generous portions. I came back because of the warm staff though. I came a second time and again staff was friendly. I like bringing my business to establishments that are happy doing what they do.

Food very fresh and nice portion. They let you customize the food. Say if you don't like celery they can cook up your order without if you call im advance.

Small Mom and Pop Shop .. Hot and Sour Soup, Egg Rolls and Mixed Veggies are my go to and Always excellent..bbq pork fried rice Very Good consistent with spices and flavor.. They carry a Full Menu.. But they also have the "quick to go" Panda express model as well ...

I went in there at least once a week, for over a year.. The wonderful lady working there has since retired.. IT IS STILL THE GREAT QUALITY FOOD AS BEFORE.. EAT IN AND THEY COOK IT SUPER FRESH... GREAT PLACE!

Finally found a place that rivals the same amount in quality of the Chinese food in southern California too bad. It's really far from me.

I was very satisfied with the quick service, and the delicious food, very nice people, I noticed that they actually give plates to homeless people at end of the night, instead of throwing away the food. That's a class act

I honestly can't say enough good things about this mom and pop Chinese food restaurant down the street from us. The food is always on-point and their team is super friendly. We've been going here for years and love it! Delivery is always quick, but picking up in person to say hi to the team is always nice too. Sometimes they even throw in some freebies with our order! If you're buying local, this is definitely one place that deserves your business.

I’m quite shocked how much food they gave me after all of the Chinese takeouts I’ve been too! It’s no wonder that this place has received higher ratings. This plate I have can get you full in no time unless you share it or save up for dinner later. The food here is even tasty. That two-item combo costs around $13! I heard that this restaurant also serves à la carte, but you can also go through fast-food style like what I had today. Place wasn’t really big but the seating area in a way stands out. You can probably wait there until your order is ready. Also, I was scrolling through the foods from the display. Seems that many people ate here during lunch while I came here for dinner. Doesn’t seem that they have plenty of options from the display for combo orders, but that’s alright. Honestly, I thought that the Spicy Orange Chicken would be very spicy, but gladly, it isn’t. I was hoping that I don’t end up drinking too much water from severe spiciness. I have tried the regular Orange Chicken from a similar place, but didn’t like it. This will be one of the favorite Chinese takeouts I will go to for now on. Looking forward for more!

Comfort Asian food for decent prices. They stack the plates up high with your entrees and it’s pretty filling. The restaurant has a cute atmosphere and decorations while still being a convenient place to grab and go if you’re in a hurry. Business is family owned by nice people. 10/10 recommend the sesame balls. It’s a little hard to find the place because a tree blocks the sign from the street.

We love Asia Express Newark. This is a carry out establishment. Their hot table is full of tasty classic favorites to choose from, but they have a good menu of specialties as well. Very good service on the spot. And the value for your buck is exceptional. They offer catering as well for your special occasions. We have used them for several of our family functions with excellent suggestions, on time pick up and the food is always hot and ready to serve. You may find yourselves coming back again and again just like us.

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.

It's obvious why this place is so highly rated. If you've eaten Chinese food in California since you were a kid, like I have, this is the classic experience. It's kind of set up like a Panda Express, so depending on when you go in, the food may have been sitting there for a little while but it's still good. The menu section is exceptionally large, offering specials, combos, and a wide variety of soups that you typically don't find at most takeout Chinese restaurants. With that said, the portions are huge, something you've become accustomed to when getting California Chinese food. Food. Can expect the kind of plate that your mother delivers to you right after she questions if you've been getting enough to eat. I actually would have given this place five stars, but when I got my takeout home, it was missing one crucial thing that really completes the experience. Experience. I didn't get any fortune cookies.

The lady owner has a good PR and allocates quite generous portion unlike the cashier assistant who at times don’t know how to price the order, less portions and yes she needs to smile. Better that she leaves her worries behind and focus on her work.

Got my food and didnt say anything like have a good day thank you i say this because they were being nice to every other person. Really bad energy.

Food was absolutely disgusting. I was fooled by the many reviews by people who claim to have tastebuds. Do not go here. Food is oily and lacks seasoning.
