I highly recommend Clouddish for having authentic Chinese food. It's a tasty delight and a treat to the palette. I enjoyed the high quality rice noodle and effort that is put into soup base. The deserts are unique and nothing you can find at other restaurants. read more

I came here around 12:45PM with a party of 4 to join the waitlist being 2nd in line. Sadly I got seated at 1:30 and saw the continuous influx of parties of 2 skip ahead and get seated. Most of their tables only have 3 seats, and they only have 2 tables that sit from 4-6. If you are coming here with more than 3 people, either prepare to wait or have a discussion with the server. This place is NOT good for parties bigger than 2. I ordered a Yunnan cold rice noodle, braised pork rice noodle, and the Raksha Ghost Chicken. The noodle dishes are pretty good and and authentic, but the advertised picture of the meat portion is definitely inflated. The Yunnan Cold Rice Noodle arguably had more peanuts than meat, so I recommend ordering side dishes of meat. The spice had a little kick to it, and I found that perfect as someone with mild spice tolerance. The mixian noodles were perfect, with a good chew and bounce to them (which makes them different from traditional Chinese noodle soups). The Raksha Chicken tasted a little like mexican salsa, with its lime cilantro and onion flavor. It tasted a little herby and minty, with a good kick of spice. Definitely pair this with a noodle to suffice your protein requirements for the dish. Although the prices seem cheap, the the sustenance is low. Then again, you get even worse value with ramen so I can't complain too much, but just keep that in mind and order other side dishes to pair with your noodles if you're hungry. This place is not good for large parties, and I would not come back here with a party any greater than 2. Their seating layout is very weird and is a big hindrance on their decision to seat 3 per table instead of 4. The front host seemed a little clueless on how to accommodate larger parties, and a party of 4 behind me was sat almost 45 mins after joining the waitlist when parties of 2 were just getting sat within 10-15min... read more

I have been to cloudish multiple times, but don't think I would come back again. First, the portion of expensive rice noodle($22 one) becomes way less than before. The kept the same size of the big bowl but the noodles and the ingredients are way less. Second, I have doubt about the way they do business. The cheaper rice noodle items were sold out very often , even just at lunch time, and only 3 rice noodle choices are left for people to choose, and when you ask the server, they would tell you to pick the expensive one, making customers feel like they got tricked into the restaurant becoz they never let customers know most of the items are sold out, and it happened multiple times already. If you check the screencap, they even blacked out the kids plain rice noodle while the othe rice noodles are still available lol. Both portion and services are going downhill so I probably won't come back anymore read more

The soup base was honestly quite average, and it had a very strong taste of crushed pepper or white pepper powder. There was a noticeable slightly spicy sensation in the throat after drinking it. I haven't tried many places that pack the soup and noodles separately, but in this case, I actually felt the need to get home quickly and eat it because I was worried the noodles would absorb too much of the broth and lose their texture. One positive thing is that the noodles were still nicely chewy and had a good texture even after I got home. However, regarding the other dishes... I'll leave those comments aside. I also felt the price was a little on the expensive side, around $23 after tax. That said, considering the location and the plaza it's in, the pricing is still understandable. Overall, I'm glad I tried it, but it's probably a one-time experience for me. read more

The 3 stars is an average of 5 stars for their food and 1 star for their service. It's unfortunate because my family and I really enjoy their menu offerings, but we will not be coming back to dine or order takeout. I ordered takeout yesterday, and as you can see on my receipt, I was charged $4 for the takeout containers and a $12.30 tip which I did not consent to. I did not notice these charges until today, and I wonder if they're expecting all takeout customers to not take a second glance at their receipts. $4 for takeout containers is obviously outrageous, but I will pay it if you give me advance notice or it's clearly posted somewhere near the register. When she tilted her screen for me to sign, I didn't reach the tip screen before she tilted it back to herself. I assume she tipped herself for me, which is oh so wonderful. I don't normally tip for takeout orders, but at least let me select it myself? Please beware of staff integrity at this restaurant and triple check your receipts after you pay. read more

I love the soup base here- a bit saltier than Cloudland in Fremont/Newark, but a lot more flavorful in my opinion. You can choose to have them prep it for you or put the ingredients in yourself. For the first time I think it's worth doing it yourself so you can take pics and get the full experience! I always order the original!! read more

At first glance it is a fairly casual place, but it is very clean and the utensils are of high quality. I really enjoyed the soup that came out in a huge clay pot that kept the soup hot. Yunnan Traditional crossing-bridge rice noodles. The soup was very rich and flavorful. Service was excellent. We came out for another restaurant but it had a queue of over 3 hours, so we chose this place and were not disappointed! The plum juice was amazing in both presentation and taste. These folks are a great place and we will be back. read more

It's a little pricey for me since I'm from LA, but the food is very tasty. I would recommend the 过桥米线--it's much better than the other options. The flavor is slightly salty.

We recently visited CloudDish for the first time and it quickly became a family favorite. Whats great is there is something for everyone. My level of spicy is high where my children can't do much spice. The kids and I enjoyed the rice noodle soup. It's a fun interactive soup where you add 10 ingredients to the hot soup bowl from an ingredient plate palette. The rice noodles are high quality while the amount of food is generous. There is a fantastic story behind each Artisan Dish. This particular soup base takes 18 hours to mature the flavor. It's a number 1 favorite amongst pregnant mamas as it contains so many nutrients! The service was top notch! Great location too. I've included the photo of the delicious soup! Please note there was ample shrimp in it but we ate it before the photo. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for high quality and unique dishes. read more

Don't be fooled by the pictures. You get only very, very little of each item in the circle dish, may it be a veggie or a protein, but especially the fish slices, which were pathetically thin and small. We came here with our parents for the famous Yunnan cross-bridge noodles. We knew it was expensive but we wanted to give them a good experience. It was not only a total disappointment, it was an infuriating experience for how they took their customers (us) for a ride. They not only did not accept anything but cash, they demanded 20% tip and the guy at the counter looked bored and couldn't be bothered. Never again. No wonder there's no one else in the restaurant but us. The worst Chinese food we've tasted in 20 years. read more

It delivers exactly what you'd expect from a no-frills noodle spot: clean flavors, hearty bowls, and quick service through self-serve phone ordering. Braised Pork Rice Noodles - The highlight of the meal. The broth is light but satisfying, and the toppings balance nicely with tender pork slice, ground meat, bean sprouts, and scallions. A great option when you're craving something comforting and flavorful without feeling heavy. Spicy Pig Ear - Perfect texture with just the right amount of crunch, and the seasoning gives it a savory, slightly spicy kick. Fresh garnish of carrots and cilantro adds a refreshing contrast. Popcorn Tofu - The most interesting dish of the night. The first bite feels a bit dry, almost like a more-ish cracker. Ordering and Vibe - Ordering from your phone keeps things fast and easy. The restaurant itself is casual and straightforward, with the focus on the food rather than extras. Overall - Solid choice when you want a reliable noodle soup fix. The pig ear appetizer and the noodles scratch the itch for a light yet filling bowl. read more

All I knew when we came here was that they have soup and that it's Chinese food. I had no idea what we ordered so when our Traditional Crossing Bridge entrees started to come out, I was excited at the presentation as it's very unique! I love that each item is numbered off in what order to put it in your broth. The broth here was also very flavorful and the noodles were cooked perfectly. I thought the whole dish was great and super filling/comforting- we came on a cold day so it was perfect! I love the concept of the Crossing Bridge, it's very different from other places I've been to and in a way, assembling and playing with your food makes it more fun to eat. There's so many other food options in this plaza, but I would definitely be back here when I'm in the area as we don't have anything like this in San Jose! read more

I've been to this restaurant several times before, and up until this last visit, I genuinely enjoyed coming here. The food has always been good, which is why I kept returning and recommending it to friends and family. Unfortunately, after the experience I had during my most recent visit, I can confidently say this will be my last time eating here. What made the situation especially disappointing was that the issue had nothing to do with the food itself. The problem was the customer service -- or more accurately, the complete lack of it. When my wife and I arrived for lunch, we noticed several people already waiting inside the restaurant to be seated. No problem, that's pretty normal during busy lunch hours. We put our name down on the waitlist and patiently waited our turn like everyone else. At that point, I assumed the restaurant was simply seating people in the order they arrived. Then things started getting frustrating. A party of three walked into the restaurant after us and, almost immediately, they were seated. At first I thought maybe they had called ahead or had a reservation, so I didn't say anything. But then, not long after that, another group came in after us and they were also seated right away. Meanwhile, we were still standing there waiting with no explanation from the staff. At that point, I was honestly pretty irritated. Nobody likes feeling ignored, especially when they've followed the process correctly and are clearly being skipped over. I even considered just leaving right then and there because the whole situation felt disrespectful and poorly managed. The only reason we stayed was because my wife convinced me not to walk out. She went inside and politely explained to one of the employees that we had already put our name on the waitlist and that two different parties who arrived after us had already been seated ahead of us. Instead of apologizing or even acknowledging the mistake in a professional way, the employee simply responded with something along the lines of "Oh, okay." That was it. No apology. No explanation. No attempt to fix the situation or make things right. There wasn't even a basic sense of concern or urgency. The attitude we got felt more like, "Take it or leave it," which honestly made the experience even worse. Mistakes happen at restaurants all the time, especially during busy hours, and most reasonable customers understand that. What matters is how staff handle those mistakes. In this case, they handled it terribly. What really surprised me was the complete lack of customer care. A simple apology would have gone a long way. Even acknowledging that they messed up the seating order would have helped. Instead, we were treated like our frustration didn't matter at all. It felt dismissive and unprofessional. Eventually, we were seated and decided to stay for lunch since we had already waited so long. The food itself was still decent, which is honestly the only reason this review isn't even harsher. But by that point, the entire dining experience had already been ruined. It's hard to enjoy a meal when you've just been ignored, skipped over, and treated like an inconvenience. The service throughout the meal didn't improve much either. Nobody checked in regarding the earlier issue, and there was never any effort made to recover from the bad first impression. At the end of the meal, we decided not to leave a tip because the service simply did not deserve one. Tips are earned through good hospitality and customer care, and unfortunately neither was present during this visit. What's frustrating is that this could have been handled so easily. A quick apology, a little accountability, or even a small gesture of goodwill would have completely changed the experience. Instead, the staff acted indifferent from beginning to end, and that left a lasting impression. I understand restaurants get busy and mistakes happen. I'm usually very patient and understanding when it comes to service issues. But being skipped multiple times while waiting, then receiving zero apology or concern afterward, is unacceptable. Good food alone is not enough to keep customers coming back if the service makes them feel disrespected. Sadly, after several previous visits and mostly positive experiences, this last visit completely changed my opinion of the place. There are too many restaurants out there that actually value their customers and know how to treat people properly. If you enjoy poor customer service, getting skipped in line, or being treated like your time doesn't matter, then this restaurant might be perfect for you. But if you expect basic professionalism, fairness, and respect as a paying customer, I'd recommend spending your money somewhere else. read more

We loved the Yunnan Traditional Crossing-bridge Rice Noodles, so we ordered it again and we thoroughly enjoyed it. But this time we also tried 2 other dishes we'd never tried before: Yunnan Cold Rice Noddles (include Peanut): this cold noodle dish was delicious. The vinegar taste hit me so unexpectedly strongly at first, but once my tongue acclimated to it, I could start tasting the sweetness and the savoriness from the vinegar. It was tasty! It also came with pork belly and some other meat cuts as well. The peanuts added a nice crunch to each bite. And beware that this dish could be deceptively spicy. I enjoyed it and would get it again. $15 as of July 2024. Raksha Ghost Chicken: I see this as a cold shredded chicken salad with red onion, carrot, and some herbs in savory spicy vinegar sauce. The chili pieces here were no jokes - they were very very spicy. Beware. $10 as of July 2024. The name of this dish highly intrigued me so I decided to do a little research on that. So, it seems like there are many legends about this dish (locally known as guǐ jī). One says that ancient fortune-tellers used chicken bones to scatter on the ground to look for formations in order to tell the future. So as not to waste the meat, they mixed it with local herbs and spices to make what resembles a chicken salad. Other legends say that chickens were most often sacrificed to keep ghosts happy, but again, the meat couldn't be wasted afterward. Very interesting. read more

I've driven by this place a few times while grabbing food at other restaurants in the plaza so I decided to try this place out for the first time last week. This spot replaces the previous snowflakes and the popularity is definitely better than the last. We came on a Saturday evening and although the restaurant was full, the wait was minimal. After getting seated, you scan the QR code on the table to order. We both got the crossing bridge noodle set. however, shortly after placing the order, we were informed that due to the small table, it won't be able to accommodate 2 sets of the noodle simultaneously. At the end, we had to have 1 set cooked in the kitchen to allow space. Food was average, I can taste too much white pepper in the soup. The concept is good for you to cook your own noodles and put the ingredients in the order of the plate but the plate was too big. My suggestion is to switch the big plate to a smaller one so you can fit 2 sets of noodles on the table. Service was good. Time from ordering to food arrival was short and we were informed immediately when they needed to switch one of the orders from self cooked to kitchen cooked. Parking was good, it's located in a big plaza with plenty of parking spots. If you happen to be in the area and am craving crossing bridge noodles, this is a good spot but otherwise, I would recommend ten seconds yunnan rice noodle instead. read more

Cloudish is the latest Chinese noodle place in the Pacific Pearl outdoor mall, replacing Snowflake. Its Yunnan-style soup noodles where rice noodles cook in seconds in a light broth with a variety of veggies, tofu, and proteins thrown in. Its similar to Ten Seconds, although quality and portion wise perhaps not as good. It's 3 stars for me since between the ratio of broth, noodles, and meat I felt it was way too much broth and not enough noodles or proteins. We ordered three noodle dishes between the two of us and we still weren't full! Ghost Chicken was served cold and has a powerful, sharp spicy kick. It would go awesome on a Chinese Chicken Salad, but it wasn't my favorite. Braised Pork Noodles was decent in flavor, though it would be nice if there were more pork. I'm benchmarking this with a good bowl of pho or Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup where you will get full! We had the same issue with Crossing Bridge Noodles, though they gave more noodles at least. We ordered a third noodle dish with a seafood broth and little meatballs and bean curd. You definitely had to fish out the meatballs since they were so small. One positive is the dessert - black sesame mochi! Sweet, bitter, granular black sesame filling is my favorite Asian dessert flavor besides coconut. Overall AOK but I probably won't be in a hurry to return. If anything, it makes us yearn to return to Ten Seconds, which also opened up in Dublin! read more

I like it! Trying Clouddish for the first time and the experience was excellent through and through. The interior was nice, clean and roomy. We were greeted and seated immediately (later we found out by the owner). He was friendly, smily and very helpful when we were struggling on what to order ;) Between the 5 of us; we ordered the following: * The House Special Supreme Chicken Broth Soup with all the combination veggies, meat and seafood. Oh - so - YUMMY!! Note: You have the option of asking the kitchen to just bring out the bowl with all ingredients in it - but since this is my first time here, I wanted the full experience so they brought out the big dish of "everything", the noodles and then the large bowl of pipping hot soup. Then the large plate of goodies is labeled 1-10 so that you'll place the items into the soup in that order. My gosh - it is so good!!! The soup is SO flavorful and everything is perfectly seasoned and all ingredients are balanced in flavor. The bowl looked super large but guess what, I couldn't stop eating it so ate the whole thing AND slurped up the bowl of soup too! * Braised Pork Soup Noodles x 3 and everyone loved it. The soup base was full of flavor yet not too salty. One of us found it to be a bit spicy but perhaps he's just weak! lol ;) * Vegetable & Tofu Dry Noodles; The vegetarian in our party said it was really good, she can also take the spiciness but would have preferred it more mild. So just note to self that we'll order mild next time. * Appetizers: * Wood Ear: Very good and perfectly flavored though I personally don't care for all the chili peppers. Will request without chili flakes next time. * Fried Donut (youtiu): SO GOOD! Perfect also when dipped in the soup. A must have in my opinion along with your soup noodles Overall we all enjoyed a great, nice meal here!! Thank you and we'll be back soon! read more
