Eats of Asia resides in a corner spot in the Crossroads Market. With a variety of dishes on the menu including Ramen, Bi Bim Bap and various other noodle bowls, I had a hard time choosing a dish. On this visit, with the featured meat was pulled pork. I decided to try this on their Bi Bim Bap, which came with a generous portion of meat, their homemade sauce, chopped nuts and a perfectly runny egg in addition to the fresh vegetables and rice. Overall, great dish and friendly service. At around $12 a meal, the prices are a bit high for the environment, but not too bad. read more

Bi...bim...bap! The only dish I tried so far and I love it! Fresh and full of flavor. They also offer other bowls, soups, steamed buns, and snacks. Everything looks pretty tasty. The price is good as well. You can pay with cash or debit. Seating can be a bit difficult if it's a very busy day, but the place is located in the "food court" where you can usually find a spot to sit down. For drinks they offer the usual water/pop, and also a Kaffeklatsch cold brew coffee. read more

Were you sad this weekend when you went to Market on Macleod, hoping for Bao happiness and instead were greeted by a Hold the Mustard sign and no one else? Just like Sister Mary Clarence, I will follow Eats of Asia wherever they will go. They've got a huge stall now in Crossroads Market, complete with a Ramen Bar, all the J's, and Groot! The food here is as good as ever, and if you've got dietary issues and restrictions, these guys are more than willing to accommodate you. There aren't any vegan specific items on the menu, but Jay fixes up a wonderfully filling vegan bibimbap that I'm trying to get named after me. They also manage to do Asian fusion well; blending Filipino, Korean, Chinese and even Hawaiian flavors without muting their delectability or making it taste like Westernized dysphoria. If you're a heat fiend, their gochujang is just as scrumtralescent as sriracha, and they're not stingy with it. Suck it up and power through that gochujang basket weave. The specials change weekly, so you won't get bored! May want to stop a few stalls down afterward for an espresso though, in case you have to drive home. Side effect of bibimbap: Sudden and propulsive urges to nap, AKA, Itis. read more

You know how when something or somebody amazes touches your skin or lands on the shirt you're wearing and you swear that you'll never wash it again? That's how I'm feeling about the food I ate from Eats of Asia today. I held off for HOURS on eating or drinking anything else to let those flavourful afternotes linger in my mouth as long as I could. I made my way through a spam musubi, lucky pig bao and dan dan noodle bowl. The spam musubi is far better than anything you'd get at the local convenience store in Hawaii, you must try it! Lucky pig bao, oh my goodness, like an open-faced steam bum served up with braised pork belly, hoisin, cilantro and crushed peanuts. Remember your napkins for this one. If you're extra hungry, you HAVE to try a bowl, the dan dan noodle bowl is a fun show as they hand pull the noodles before cooking them. Once ready, they get all gussied up with pork, veg, sweet shiitake mushrooms and dusted with some crushed peanuts on top. Those noodles are sooooo soft! Loved the flavours coming out of this noodle bowl with a fun amount of spice to it too. Being street food inspired, this food is best eaten on the go, however, if you want to sit and take a load off, grab a stool and talk Asian food shop! You'll love it! I promise! read more

I was visiting a friend in Calgary for the weekend. While there we watched a documentary on Netflix about ramen noodles. This gave us a huge craving for authentic Japanese ramen which we needed to satisfy. After a couple of failed attempts at other places we found this place on yelp, called to confirm ramen, and decided to make the trek. The 5 star reviews are accurate, this place did not disappoint. My first visit ever and now I will make the pilgrimage whenever I visit Calgary. Ramen noodles in a wonderful broth with just the right amount of spice. Soft boiled egg, pulled pork, mushrooms, green onions, the works! I forgot what other magical ingredients went into this Asian love potion, but I'm under it's spell. read more

Eats Of Asia - Ramen noodle bowl - Asian Fusion Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Visiting Crossroads market is part of my weekend routine so Eats of Asia has quickly become my go-to place for lunch on the weekends. Situated in the main food court area, Eats of Asia is a take on Asian street food from ramen, dandan noodles, crispy sisig, soups, baos, chicken skins, japatots to rice bowls, they've got all the street food everyone craves! I was first introduced to Eats of Asia's baos...boy are baos amazing. Lucky pig is my favorite, melt in your mouth braised pork belly, hoisin, cilantro, peanuts. Phoenix is a close second with fried chicken (I LOVE fried chicken), hoisin, negi and peanuts all wrapped in steam baos, they are truly small pockets full of flavor - they've got other baos which are just as good but I've listed my personal favorite. I've also tried the hand pulled dandan noodles which are pretty good too - the only thing is, the noodles are soooo long it can get kind of messy, tasty but messy. Something new that has made an appearance at Eats of Asia is the poke bowls. I LOVE poke bowls, you get to choose the main protein, rice or salad, sauce, 3 mix ins and toppings, it's quite the refreshing treat. It's not comparable to poke bowls in the states but it makes a good substitute! I could eat poke bowls all day every day and wouldn't feel guilty at all. Eats of Asia is one of those places you don't want to miss. All their food is tasty and definitely worth trying! I'd say go earlier as they can run out of the popular items! But NEWS FLASH - they will be opening another location at the Calgary's Farmers Market - yippeee!! read more

Been wanting to drop in and visit Eats of Asia all summer. Holidays and other distractions got in the way. Finally today was the day. We got up, fed the kids and herded them out the door. It was the perfect day for a drive in the country and visit to the market. It's been at least six years since I've been to the market. Those dang distractions again. A few changes were noted. Lots of vendors to visit and lots of wasps to drive you crazy. But they did not deter. I think I took a few out along the way. Stopped here for lunch. It really was meant to be. The rest of the family went elsewhere to eat, which was their loss! The line up was long but it went fast. With so many great options to choose from I made a split second decision while they waited patiently for me to decide. It was to be the special of the day, Dandan Noodles with pulled pork. It was definitely the right choice for the moment as it was simply divine. I added a small swirl of sriracha just because it was there and I'm a fool for spice. The pulled pork is one of their specialties (as per their sign) and it was simply delicious floating in a sea of spicy broth and noodles. I've decided I will be back before the market closes for the season only this time trying a couple of different items on the menu. read more

Not very good ramen. Price was steep for w bowl the size of mr. Noodle package worth of soup. Flavours did not work, meat was extremely fatty and stringy. They cracked a near raw egg into soup, but broth was not hot enough to continue cooking. Skip to the Mexican place, best in town read more

I went to Eats of Asia in the Calgary Farmers Market yesterday. I won't be back. I went to order and was waiting behind two women who had obviously never eaten there, they were talking with the gentleman behind the counter, he was offering tastings and explaining the menu. I have zero issue with this. There was only one till. While waiting there were two other servers behind the counter eating and looking over the crowd. Yes, we all need to eat, I was starving too. Where I take issue is the simple fact that NEITHER of them looked at me, acknowledged me or bothered to say hello. What either of them could have said "we'll be right with you" "can we get something started for you" "would you like a taster while you wait". Nope nothing, they stood there eating their Ramen. Even the gentleman at the till could have said " ladies, try this I'm going to help the person behind you. Nope NOTHING from anyone. After waiting for about 5 minutes with zero acknowledgment from any of the staff I walked away, and they continued eating their lunch. One other issue, I posted this very feedback on their FB page for them to address, my comment was removed, and I was blocked. This says a lot about the business, and lack of customer service. I'll take my money elsewhere. The perogies at the next stall were great! read more

Eats of Asia has new digs at the Crossroads Farmers Market in the new renovated area. It was Alberta Burger Fest week so I stopped off to sample their offering. Teriyaki pork belly patty, sweet teriyaki sauce and fresh scallions on pressed rice "buns" in roasted nori wrapper for a mere $10. Of the three burgers I sampled this past week it was the best. Jay and his assistant John are passionate about food and it's obvious in the dishes they come up with. It's a great stop for a quick bite. read more

Loved loved this place! After walking around the flea market section at Crossroads Market I was starving, which means deciding on a place to eat? Hopeless. Being as hungry as I was I don't think I knew what my expectations were but this place exceed them anyway! I love a good bibimbap , if I see it on a menu that is what I order. Maybe it's a phase, maybe it's not but I can't get enough. The bibimbap here did not disappoint, mmmm yum. My husband ordered what I think was the special? It was a crispy teriyaki chicken thing/mybraindoesnotremember all I know is that I would order either again in a heartbeat. Service? Super friendly, awesome, perfectly rounded out a great meal. (that is to me what turns a 4 star review into 5 stars) Next time I go to Crossroads this will for sure be my first stop. read more

I love this place! A family run hole in the wall shop with fantastic food and excellent service!

Had the bibimbap but replaced the pork with tofu and went a little lighter on the hot sauce. This dish was good enough to make me write this review. I absolutely loved it. Not even finished it yet and I want to order another one! I wish there was a bit more food for the price but I'm happy with it. Staff was friendly and accommodating and had a good recommendations. I'll be back!! read more

This place is an absolute gem, and I much prefer the Crossroads location to the one at CFM (but miss the one at Market on Macleod, but so it goes). Brilliant, creative Asian fusion that still manages to take its Asian (Filipino, Korean, Japanese, etc) roots very seriously and with great respect. I love almost everything I've ever had here but return to my faves: the spam musubi, which is SO MUCH BETTER than that garbage version of this delicacy at places like 7-11 in Hawaii, and the teriyaki chicken, which elevates this dish in way that I'd never have thought possible. Eat it in the market if you can. read more

The food is delicious, 2-star rating is due to service. I went to the Calgary Farmer's Market late in the day specifically so I could take a hot meal from East of Asia home for dinner. I arrived at the booth at 4:35pm (market doesn't close until 5pm, and hours on East of Asia's website say they are open to 5pm as well) and was told they were no longer serving as they had just finished cleaning. So disappointing. read more

I don't get to eat here as often as I wish I could- but when I have, it is always great. After much angst because there looked to be so many tasty dishes-I finally decided on the poke bowl. Each component of the dish was delicious- the kimchee, the salmon, the tamago, etc were each well crafted- but then all together, holy yum!! I love burrito bowls, and now love an Asian version of that- with the poke bowl. Thanks for another delicious meal!! read more

This place leaves an impression of vibrancy and creativity!! They change up their menu every week, and the street food theme is really cool. I ordered a salmon congee--the crisp fish skin was delicious with buttery pieces of salmon and a perfect onsen tamago. HOWEVER, my mom ordered a bowl of inedibly salty ramen. By 3pm, they had apparently let the broth reduce too much. Neither of us could take more than two bites. For $10, I would 10/10 not recommend. It's quality food in a vibrant setting with regular customers, but I would not come out specially for this place. read more

Very happy with this menu! Street food served is a very authentic way. Some foods don't need to be flashy they need to feel real and taste great. Poke bowls, ramen, and spam can't serve Asian cuisine without one but to get all 3!! THANK YOU!! read more

Had the Ramen dish, it was so salty I barely finished the noodles! Left the bowl of broth. I've had other dishes here that was not bad, but they seem to concentrate on being too "hip and cool" than customer service. Anyways, probably had my last meal here. read more

This is my favourite hidden gem in the city. It just makes me so happy every time I come here. I have yet to try something here that was subpar. My go-tos: Dan dan noodles: great chewy noodle texture, super flavourful pork, love the pickled vegetables. Pork belly baos: how have these perfect things not blown up on yyc. We need a bao revolution. Not on the menu the last few times I was there, bring it back PLS! Lastly the red curry Thai chicken rice bowl. Crispy chicken in a deliciously sweet spicy Thai curry sauce. Oh god im drooling now. read more

I love this place. It's close to my shop, so I eat here loads and have never had a bad experience. Staff is always friendly and the food is always good, and even great on occasion. For instance, the Dan Dan noodles, Chicken & Waffles & Korean Dirty Fries are knockouts! read more

The food was good just not what I was expecting. I had heard a lot about their ramen but they didn't have any on their regular menu. I tried the bibimbap and it was good. The Asian tater tots were definitely my favourite item! Those are a must try. Portion sizing is decent. read more

Really overrated. Everything I have tried is very bland and does not taste authentic. They mask it with sauce but there is no cohesion in the taste. Meaning you taste the meat and sauce separately . It really is not good compared to REAL Asian restaurants. read more

Had the kimchi ramen today. The noodles were good, but the broth was tasteless. Won't go back. Service was nice.

o had the pork bao steam buns one time, excellent and the chef will cook it as well as you like. yhe nokdle soup and meat bowls are amazing as well. thai currey chicken is just the best. the real draw is the fusion eats on steam buns. read more

I love this place. I wish I was eating Taiwanese pork rice right now.

One of the best if not the best Asian restaurant I have ever been (in this category and price point), the quality of the ingredients and the execution are top notch, we try to eat there as often as possible, we live the teriyaki chicken, the Dan dan noodles and the crispy pork belly rice, I strongly recommend this place read more
