    Update: We tried 2 different food selections. Won Ton soup and beef chow fun. Won Ton Soup - 4/5 The broth was tasty, not overly salty. The pork won ton didn't have the firmness that I would have liked. It was more on the soft side. Taste wise, it was good. Just the softness of the pork filling needed to be more firm. I loved that the soup included shrimp, char sui, and Bok Choy. For the won ton filling, maybe mixing the shrimp and pork together might make the filling more firm and more delicious. Overall, I liked the won ton soup. I would order this soup again. Beef chow fun - 4/5 This noodle selection was good. The chow fun noodles were darker than I expected, probably due to the soy sauce that was mixed in for taste. The onions mixed in wasn't overwhelming, and blended well with the chow fun noodles. I wish there was more flavor from a well seasoned wok that infuses in the chow fun that I've tasted at other Chinese restaurants. But I liked their chow fun, and would order it again too. I am happy with selections that we chose. You get enough to share, and the price is reasonable. I would recommend giving Asian Express a visit for your Chinese's food fix.

    Gravy for the egg foo young
    Lore M.

    Been coming here for years, portions are generous. I wanted combo plate but didn't want anything from the steam table because I wanted just broccoli in oyster sauce and they were very accommodating. Food is good and always fresh and hot. The egg foo young is huge and i loved the gravy! Great friendly service. Small inside with no dine in option. Great place to come for grab n go as they're really fast here.

    Chow Mein, Riblets, Kung Pao Chicken....big servings

    @ Newark Square 5672 Thornton Ave Newark, CA 94560 "Asia Express" is the place to go for Chinese fast food in Newark, CA. Takeout only, no table service. This is a small place that serves up tasty foods both from a hot steam table and "cook to order" special menu items. This was my first time at Asia Express. I noticed they do some things better than other places- - They wrap your order in a plastic bag to prevent spillage. - offer condiments and utensils free - the server offered me fresh rice if I wait - discount for paying in cash I didn't want to wait, so I just ordered from the steam table: -chow mein -pork riblets -kung pao chicken This place has big servings! The whole time the young lady was scooping food into the takeout tray, I was thinking...."how are you going to close that lid with so much food in it?" All the food was tasty and fresh. The chow mein wasn't at all greasy. I was there at 7pm, Tuesday evening, and they were pretty busy. Good food, at a fair price, and large servings. Free parking in Newark Square.

    Popcorn chicken w choice of sauces
    NB A.

    It was as good as I expected! I saw a YouTube video from 3 months ago by eatlikeanapex where he went to this takeout place in Newark. It looked delicious so I went there this afternoon around 4 pm. There was only one customer in front of me when I arrived, but when I left a crowd of at least 6 customers were patiently waiting behind me. I felt guilty for ordering so much! I ordered a total of 4 Regular Combo boxes w 2 additional items each, $11.99 per box. Considering how they overstuffed the boxes this is a deal! I had half/half fried rice/chow mein. Jalapeño chicken was not too spicy and the batter was light. Black bean pork riblets Orange chicken Beef w broccoli Popcorn chicken It was so much food I could only eat half. Eating a side order of jalapeño chicken for the drive home contributed, man it was delicious. When I mentioned the YouTube video to the nice lady behind the counter she immediately remembered and even said the items that eatlikeanapex ordered! Excellent customer service! Parking: free, big pot w plenty of spaces. It's not visible from Thornton Ave. though, look for Taco Bell and head towards the back of the lot and it'll be on the left end of the row of shops. Inside, it's small and you'll immediately see the buffet display. And if you pay cash there's a discount. This place is a hidden gem!

    Plate from steam table. Chow mein, black bean sauce riblets, spicy orange chicken. Big portions! Delicious!

    Tried the steam table today. Very friendly service. Everything is delicious! Big servings and good price! Come and check it out!

    jalapeño chicken, mixed vegetables, fried rice

    Wonderful experience, The food was amazing. I ordered the jalapeño chicken fried rice and the mixed vegetables. The mixed vegetables are so fresh and so soft very delicious.

    Rice, sweet and sour pork, orange chicken
    Lisa S.

    Great place in Hayward. Huge servings. The fried rice was very flavorful. The white rice actually tasted good. Really surprised there was orange chicken and spicy orange chicken. The sweet and sour pork was sweet and not overly breaded. They teriyaki chicken was good. The beef and broccoli was typical good and flavorful. The server was friendly and smiley. Cute place inside but no tables to eat at.

    receipt look at total its wrong it should be$29 not 31
    Jon An Kathy R.

    Such a beautiful family owned establishment. I had one bite of their noodles and was literally crying tears of joy. The staff are very welcoming, attentive, and timely. Perfect place for quick authentic takeout.

The base price starts off at $29.95, then you select your food options. There's an uncharged on the most popular selections like lobster and steaks. My lobster was cooked to perfection. Very tender and sweet. The filet was pretty small for the up-charge, and was slight over cooked from the medium rare I ordered. But was still tender and good. The grilled asparagus was a $4 up-charge and you only get 3 spears of asparagus. With the up-charged, my dish, the price was over $46. Lobster Roll - 5/5 The Lobster Roll was very delicious. You get some Lobster tail, but Lobster claw meat is more prominent (see pic). Still the spices along with the clarified butter made this roll very tasty and delicious. Overall, we enjoyed our visit to Market Broiler. It's a little pricy for the average consumer for consistent visits, but for special occasions birthdays, Mother's Day, the Market Broiler is a great place to dine.

The Pricing Confusion: We placed our order at 5:05 PM, and the server initially took it. However, a few minutes later, they came back to explain it wasn't actually a happy hour deal, but a lunch special. This was frustrating since we had called to confirm and had already ordered. While our other food arrived earlier, we waited over an hour for the shrimp. We watched five separate tables who arrived after us get served their shrimp first. Even though we told the staff a couple of times that our shrimp hadn't arrived yet, we were still left waiting. The shrimp didn't finally arrive until 6-6:10pm. They eventually explained they thought we had already been served and suspected our order had accidentally been packed into a to-go order. The food itself was actually delicious, the shrimp and garlic noodles were very flavorful. I don't even have a photo of the shrimp because by the time it finally arrived, we were so hungry we just started eating! To their credit, once they realized the error, they slashed the price of the 1lb shrimp and gave us free rice to make it right The food is great, but the kitchen organization was a mess during our visit. Management was honest and tried to fix the mistake, but waiting an hour for the main part of your meal while watching five other tables eat is a major headache.

Someone that was after us was seated first so I went to the waiter to ask about it. He immediately sat us at a table. We ordered a lot: lobster roll, crab cake, clam chowder, the bag of shrimp, crab legs, and clams (i think?) with the spiciest sauce. Clam chowder: worth ordering. Id order this again. It exceeded my expectations. I might even say it was good or even slightly better than ones found at santa cruzs pier. Crab cake: pass on it. It was nicely cooked. Moist in the inside and crunchy on the outside. The crab blend wasnt my cup of tea. Lobster roll: get if you love lobster hoagie bun - yum! Lobster filling was missing some flavors. It tasted like lobster and hoagie bun. I wanted more of a creamy mixture. The bag: there was a LOT. Expensive at $78. Very spicy! So get it if you like spice. We did. I cant say to get it or not to get it. Loved that we were given bibs. Loved our waitress who checked on us. It is a family business. Would come back if craving for clam chowder. I would get everything else somewhere else and eat the seafood in the bag only if i had mad cravings and didnt want to drive farther.

    ONE ITEM: TANGSUYUK…read more Normally I don't write reviews of only one item. However if I do crave for an item at a particular cuisine I'll order or it. If I go to a Hong Kong-style cafe and there's hainan chicken I'll order it. If I go to a Korean restaurant I try see if tangsuyuk is offered. However tangsuyuk isn't served at Korean restaurants, but at Korean Chinese restaurants. The dish tangsuyuk was created by ethnic Chinese immigrants living in Korea. Last Saturday night my family came to Seoul Mama for dinner. This restaurant was a last-minute change as the place at the same plaza we wanted to eat was a one-hour wait. When I arrived my sister placed an order for the family. However she said you can order more items. Out of curiosity on the photo section of Seoul Mama on Yelp I typed tangsuyuk to search. To my surprise there were two photos of tangsuyuk. I asked for the server and informed her I wanted to order tangsuyuk. Tangsuyuk is in my top 10 favorite foods of all time. The first time I ate tangusyuk was in Temescal District in Oakland. Tangsuyuk is the Korean version of sweet and sour pork. There is a difference between Chinese and Korean versions. Whereas sweet and sour pork tends to be heavy tangsuyuk is lighter in its sauce (because it's clear) and batter. Also the meat in tangsuyuk is pork loin therefore the dish is lean. Most of all the deep-fried breaded meat is not mixed with the sauce. For this Saturday night dinner there were items such as beef bulgogi, chicken bulgogi, and pork belly my sister ordered. These items were tasty however I was waiting for my tangsuyuk. I told my cousin about my love for tangsuyuk. He worked at a Korean restaurant and never heard about tangsuyuk. When the tangsuyuk was served I knew from appearance the dish would be delicious. I took one piece and dipped it in the sauce. After taking a bite of the light batter and sauce the tangsuyuk at Seoul Mama had my seal of approval. My cousin ate tangsuyuk for the first time. He responded by saying he loved the dish. While others were feasting on other dishes and condiments I had the tangsuyuk mostly to myself. I've eaten tangsuyuk in Oakland, Santa Clara, Milpitas, and Dublin. Since tangsuyuk is offered in Korean Chinese restaurants you don't see the dish in Korean restaurants hence why I rarely have tangsuyuk. At Seoul Mama I now know I can have tangsuyuk in the Tri-City area of the Bay Area.
