I'm not sure why this place is always so empty. I just had the curry with veggies and it's so delicious. I'm shocked I haven't come here more often. We'll definitely be back. read more

Time to box this place up and put it on the shelf. I'm really struggling with Asian Box because it had so much potential. I like the IDEA of their menu, it's just that their food isn't good, and the service here is lacking. I've been here multiple times trying to support their business and everything from their very dry sitting out and not fresh since it's been sitting out for hours "fresh" rolls with peanut sauce is always dissapointing. Just think about the rice paper drying and shriveling up until it becomes hard and chewy. That was my last visit with their dry salmon rice bowl. This time was the incredibly awful chicken pho. The watery broth, gross dry chicken with no flavor and noodles that you can get via a package at ANY Asian market and here you go for like $20 after tax and tip. Yup, this place will not be in business long if this continues. read more

Asian Box - Burlingame - Horrible tasting food - Asian Fusion Near Me - Burlingame, California

The banh mi from this place was absolutely terrible and after two bites I threw it out - it was inedible. The bread was weird and mushy and the meat was chewy and not good. I think they need to go to a restaurant that sells decent banh mi and copy them... Really deserved a one star but the guy who helped me was really nice so hence the two stars, will not be returning though. read more

Hmm.... Hmm.....,., I've been here five years ago, and it was good. Even taking a look at the pictures from five to eight years ago, it looked much better. But I just returned recently because I remembered that it was really good. But I was a bit disappointed. Perhaps I tried the wrong item, and the seasonal Fall special item looked good. But what we got was a bit small and underwhelming. The pickled vegetables were really good and were the best part! read more

Asian Box is a great place with fresh food and really good flavor. The staff is friendly, the service is fast, and the restaurant is clean and welcoming. I really like how you can customize your bowl and choose different toppings and sauces. Overall, it's a good spot for a quick, healthy, and tasty meal. I definitely recommend it! read more

This restaurant was surprisingly good and the service was amazing! My boyfriend and I decided to eat here after trying a generous sample of their Vietnamese Hot Chicken. The sample came with a generous amount of chicken and rice. Although, we opted to try different entrees for lunch, the Vietnamese Hot Chicken was hot and spicy, fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. What I like about their menu is not only do they offer meat options, the menu is also vegetarian/vegan friendly. You can choose to create your own box or choose from one of the many great signature boxes. Our lunch consisted of: * Salmon Salad - came with roasted lemongrass salmon, salad greens, pickled veggies, herbs, and a delicious ginger soy vinaigrette. This order took a little longer because of the salmon being cooked, I didn't mind the wait at all. This salad was delicious! It paired nicely with the dressing and picked veggies. * The Garden Box - came with organic tofu, yellow curry, broccoli, pickled veggies and brown rice. My boyfriend loved this dish! It was light and flavorful, and just enough protein from the tofu! * Lemonade and a Rice Lager which were both refreshing! * Shrimp Fresh Roll (not pictured) - it was light, had a nice bite from the veggies and came with a delicious peanut sauce on the side. The restaurant is moderately quiet with plenty of indoor seating, and is overall clean! Hospitality was top tier! We will definitely be back again and looking forward to trying more dishes! read more

This location is extremely off putting. Tables were dirty, sticky. Trash over flowing, floors have food debris and trash all over. Bathrooms smelled so bad and trash also over flowing. They don't leave any napkins or utensils for customers to use. You have to keep asking for napkins .... So inconvenient. It's literally the cost of doing business, pls don't be so cheap. Workers standing around but they weren't that busy.... Could have started cleaning at least. There was one guy who made the most effort out of the 3 workers. He was ringing up, handing out orders and tried to clean the tables all on his own. Maybe they were slammed with online orders and short staffed? Idk but I'd skip this location as it doesn't seem sanitary. My husband got his usual spicy beef bowl and we got an order of their soy wings to share. He said his bowl was good as usual but I tried the wings.... It wasn't anything special. It tasted like boiled wings then tossed in sauce. Odd texture. The wings were nice and plump though. read more

Completely gluten free? YES!! This celiac girl is so happy! Menu changes a little seasonally, but there are some items that remain on the menu. Everything I've had has been great (and safe). I've been here and one other location - this is the closest to home - I wish there was one closer to Pacifica. It's great that they also have an airport (SFO) location for gluten free travelers. read more

Asian Box is solid! I ordered "The Workout" bowl to-go, and it really hit the mark. It was hearty, filling, and flavorful, but it also had that light, clean, almost salad-like feel. I liked that it was healthy without being bland, and flavorful without being too heavy. This spot is perfect for a quick, satisfying lunch that won't weigh you down! read more

Quick and easy yummy served meals. Shout out to Jue who is always greeting customers, managing orders, and makes sure tables are clean all at once! read more

- one of the worst banh mi I've had. Bread was very oddly dry; I could barely swallow it. Meat was chewy. Much better banh mi next door at Cherimoya, or even better at The Original Royal Donut (yes, banh mi at donut place). I believe the normal box meals are much better + staff was friendly + Location is good and has outdoor seating read more

First timer and it wasn't bad. The food was fresh. Portion size is very good. Lots of bean sprouts but My kids didn't mind. The sauces were delicious. I love that there's an option for everyone. It is located in downtown Burlingame so parking can be a hit or miss depending on the time of day. It's never too busy inside the restaurant but don't let that fool you, the food is good. read more

I frequent the area for work and this place is always consistent. I love the workout bowl and the banh mi; both are flavorful and satisfying. We've ordered from here for office lunches many times because it's always a hit with the team. The order is always correct, ready on time, and packaged well. The only downside is that parking in the area can be a hassle, but the food and reliability make it worth it. read more

The salmon salad was okay. The sauce was savory, tangy, and sweet, which paired nicely with the fish. The Vietnamese iced coffee had a strange rubbing alcohol taste, and there were some alarming hard chunks (beans?) at the bottom of the cup. read more

I'm mostly gluten free so I was super happy to learn that everything on the menu including their Chocolate Chip Cookies was gluten free. My husband had a craving for Pho and I wanted a Salad so we decided to make the trek to Burlingame and try this place since I also wanted to visit Five Little Monkeys. First to arrive were the Chicken Pho which came out piping hot and the Banh Mi Chicken Sandwich. The Salmon Salad took longer to prepare. That was fine by me since it would be fresh. The Pho was good but not as good at a Pho restaurant but it satisfied the craving. My husband ate the whole thing and drank up the broth though he said it wasn't great. They gave too much hot sauce so that was a waste. My son liked his Banh Mi. He didn't have it with jalapenos though. The second half was eaten by my husband who said it was a nice sandwich with good bread. I liked my Salmon Salad though I wish I had not dumped the entire contents of dressing over my greens. It was too wet but delicious nonetheless. The Salmon was prepared really well and had a great flavor of lemongrass. Service was friendly. The restroom was clean but the toilet didn't flush well. You had to wait and flush the pee and toilet paper a few times. read more

We have been coming here for years for yummy and easy to order take out boxes - the manager is always friendly, welcoming and helpful as well!

Our order was placed on 12/26/25 for our whole office (6 people). My food had a hair in it! Beware. Also seems pretty expensive

This is my to-go place when I try to eat clean and healthy. I really liked it here but I felt like their food is not consistent. Sometimes it's really good and sometimes it's bad. The menu at Asian Box features a variety of dishes, they are all made with fresh ingredients. Service was not as attentive, we have to wait a bit for our server to order. I'd suggest to order it online and pick it up at the restaurant. We've ordered Chef's salad box and a custom box. I really enjoyed the chef's salad box, the reason why I gave a 3 star is because the chicken is really dry and hard to eat. Otherwise it would had been great. One tip is if you like peanut sauce, I'd suggest to have it on the side. It does make a difference on adding the flavors and it goes with everything. read more

My first time at Asian Box, I got Miss Jones (lemongrass pork) and it was pretty tasty! However... on my second visit, I was looking forward to eating at Asian Box and decided to try a new item, the Workout, and it was very disappointing. It was lacking in flavor. The brown rice was extremely undercooked and tough to eat. The veggies were barely pickled. Instead, they were dry and not fresh at all. I don't know whether it's because of the item I ordered or if it was just an off day, but I don't think I'll go back. read more

Service is horrible. Their machine is unclear, and we tried to create our own "rice box" and paid. the lady rudely scolded our crew for not paying for the add-on --- WHICH we didn't know they were add on because the price comes up as +0. Check the receipt and fix your conditional logic before yelling at your customers. If I had extra time to deal with returns and not rushing for a flight. I would like to give u guys a lesson on how the machine works. read more

Great place to get some Asian inspired fast food. This location was very accommodating as we came by within 10 minutes of the closing date. Vegetarians and carnivores should be able to find something to satisfy their hunger. Choose from one of their Signature Boxes or Create Your one Box. The Chicken Curry box was delicious. It included Sriracha(?) in case you wanted to "kick it up a notch". read more

I'm so sad that this place doesn't have better reviews!! You're greeted upon arrival and everyone is so friendly. Asian box is definitely a very casual laid back eatery. It's nice blend of Asian and healthy. They have a pre determined menu or you can create your own bowl. Highly recommend the chefs salad. Also the boba is actually pretty good as well! Nice addition to the menu. Parking is slightly tough because it is in the heart of Burlingame. read more

Not sure what it is but my order today was not that good. The carrots and potatoes were still pretty hard, the camping of chicken they give you is small, not a lot of curry sauce, the curry flavor was bland. Also got shrimp spring rolls and the peanut sauce was bitter and I got like two pieces of shrimp. I feel like quality of food has gone down. read more

I ordered their Pho. Their broth is really not that great. It didn't taste like Pho at all. It was almost like meant to be a dry chicken and noodle dish with broth on the side for sipping only. I had expected at least for the price a decent Pho. Instead I had dry chicken that had a lot of flavor but didn't taste well with broth. Very disappointed and killed my appetite. Also, the serving was soo small too! I mean, I should have gotten more than that itty bitty size broth. It was not enough to have with the noodles and chicken. I was absorbed all up. read more

Asian Box is a great place for a balanced, flavorful, and decently portioned Asian inspired meal! I think they have a nice rewards program too, I was able to use my rewards for a free box. I got The miss Jones box which was packed with veggies and lemongrass pork. I could've and should've subbed the pork with chicken. It was good but too much pork for me. The flavors were great though! I really love the cold rice noodles. That's definitely my fav base here because it just tastes so refreshing mixed with all the sauces from the box. My bf got the vietnamese hot chicken box which was good too. Not actually too spicy which was perfect, but definitely the heat and flavor were all there. You can actually build your own box too. There are instructions on what you can choose from on the right side of the menu. read more

Still like the concept - healthy take on Vietnamese food, almost "fusion"ish. Ingredients seem fresh, but they really reduced the portion sizes; the salad was only half-to-two thirds full. Service was just average. Good location, and it's competitive on Burlingame Ave., so it wouldn't be my first (or second or third) choice. read more
