Spicy and sour whitefish - soup good, noodles chewy but likely from pack, could use more veggies. Pig ear - thinly cut nice, has little piggy scent. Tendon - thin also, quite chewy. Shank - good. read more

Was craving noodles and hubby suggested to go here to try it out. I ordered mine indicating less spice... it was really good. The spiciness was so exact to what i can handle so I was able to really enjoy the soup. The noodles was softer to begin with than what I would prefer. read more

We were in the area and stopped by this noodle place for lunch. We came here a few months back and recalled the noodles were pretty tasty. They provided a small dish of peanuts and pickled radish. For the 2 of us we ordered a cold noodles which I think was considered appetizer, Takoyaki, and a bowl of fish noodles. The hot and sour dry noodles came with their signature 5-grain noodles, shredded cucumber, half an egg, cilantro and peanuts. The seasoning was sweet and sour with a kick. Honestly it tastes like a kind of instant Korean cold noodles I always eat in summer. The takoyaki of octopus balls are a type of Japanese snack I think, and it is very popular in the Asian countries as night market food. I actually had never tried it so I really could not compare. They are deep fried balls of what tasted like mashed potatoes wrapped Octopus tentacles . Topped with shaved bonitos. Tasked okay... The hot and sour sauerkraut noodles with snakehead fish was really good... if you like Chinese pickled cabbage. The soup base was not red at all so it gives a false sense that it was not spicy. It actually had a nice kick, but not the chilly hot kick, but the green peppercorn numbing sense of burn. The soup was very flavorful and the fish slices were good. I don't know what is snakehead fish but it tasted like flounder but firmer. There were pieces of both regular tofu and fried tofu, as well as a couple of quail eggs. The decoration was simple with cute fish lights dangling from the ceiling and display if the noodles from different grains. The service was decent and they kept on checking if we needed more water and additional utensils. We will most likely come back to sample other noodles. read more

Such a great and solid bowl of noodle soup if it weren't so far from me I'd go all the time I'm in love with the spicy and sour noodle soup here. The broth is so flavorful and the noodles are nice and bouncy as well. The heat gives it a nice kick with the sourness to balance it out. The portions sizes are pretty big so my sister and I shared one bowl and it was definitely enough for the both of us. Not pictured here is the "chicken gristle" side dish/appetizer which is basically chicken cartilage. Highly recommend! I'm a cartilage lover so this is right up my alley but if you haven't tried it before you should give it a shot! It's like popcorn chicken with an extra crunch! So good!! The service was great and they give you the option of water or their house tea which was really tasty. Another plus of this location is that it's located right next to a Yifang so you can stop by for a post meal boba read more

Five Grains Noodle House - Interior - Noodles Near Me - Fremont, California

Best fish soup I ever had ! Spicy and sour grain noodles fish soup is our favorite. We all loved it. It's definitely spicy and not too sour which makes it perfect. 5 grain noodles have very nice texture. Fish ball soup has mild broth with (May be) hint turmeric or something. This soup is very soothing. I think it's is good choice if you want to avoid spice. I also enjoyed Hot and sour dry noodles. They are room temperature not hot. The sauce is hot (spicy) and sour. Again, the flavors are really good. They topped it with nice fried peanuts and cucumber which we loved. There is cute little complimentary starter with pickled radish and peanuts. It's very nice and refreshing. Pleasant ambiance. Staff is warm and welcoming We'll definitely visit again. read more

I recently saw this restaurant featured on IG and decided to try it out since it seemed unique. I was really intrigued by the grain noodles and fish. Decided to get a bowl of the spicy & sour flavor noodle soup with snakehead fish. The meal came with 2 free sides, peanuts and some sort of lightly pickled vegetable. The spicy & sour noodle soup broth was honestly the perfect mix. It wasn't super spicy but still had a kick that mixed well with the sourness. It looked like there were 3 or so different colored noodles. Pretty thin noodles that were cooked well. Different from the typical beef noodle soup noodles, which are quite chewy. The snakehead fish was super tender and picked up the spicy & sour flavor well. There's some other additions like tofu, fried tofu, quail eggs, lettuce, etc. Overall, I really enjoyed this meal. It was something I never had and turned out to be delicious. I wanted to try the tomato broth as well, so I'll have to come back for that. Service was quick and staff was very kind and helpful. read more

What a steal!! We happened to come during Customer Appreciation Week and got 12% off. For 3 people, we shared: 1. A Combo - fish noodle soup with pig ears + soy milk 2. Dry ground pork noodle What we appreciate about the combo is it's a great deal. You get the same size noodle bowl but a good amount of the side and choice of a beverage (we chose warm soy milk). It was my first time trying the fish noodle soup and I was a big fan! The dry ground pork noodle was also good but wasn't my favorite. My other two friends though really enjoyed this dish. Separately, they have little side dish of radish and peanuts + complimentary tea (that's longan and red date?!) which is nice. Definitely would come back again if I'm craving fish noodle soup! In general, service is super fast (and you order via your phone with a QR code at your table!) read more

Summary: Good portions, cheaper than average prices, but misleading senior discount. My parents and I came across this place by chance. (Originally we were going to the beef noodle place nearby, but there were concerns about it being too yeet-hay.) The menu looked interesting, five grains noodles, so we decided to try it. When we walked in, we saw a poster that said they offer senior discount of 10% on tuesdays, which happened to be today. The multicolored noodles were al dente, with generous portions of fish. The (hot and sour) sour cabbage/ fish noodles was 3 chili signs but we were able to have it modified to mild. The fish noodle soup was had a nice light milky fish broth. The braised beef shank and tendon was mildy spicy. Yum The tea they offered tasted like warm monk fruit water. This was a nice touch and anti-yeet-hay. Overall the meal was good, reasonably priced, good portions. However, the senior discount they advertised was a little misleading. My dad asked about the discount at checkout and they said, no you need to have ordered two spicy noodle dishes. It doesn't say that on the poster, but we didn't argue since the prices were already low. Total bill with tax was $38 Easy parking, and plenty of seats. read more

Comfortable decoration with fish lanterns hanging on the ceiling and a big wall art highlighting the grains, very earthy warm yet bright ambiance. The tea they serve is mock fruit red date tea, pure clean ingredients and naturally sweet yet healthy. Love it! I tried the original grain noodle in fish soup with snakehead fish. The broth is rich and thick, the fish fillets are silky smooth, the quail eggs are soft inside and the tofu is also silky soft, the whole dish is warm and delicious! I thought five grain noodle means rolling all five grains into the noodle dough, but it's actually 5 kinds of thin noodles in the bowl. The noodles are made from 5 different kinds of grains so you see white, green, yellow, grey colors of noodle strands. The noodles hold up well on its own. I drank a lot of the broth first, ate the one large piece of lettuce, tried the fish fillet, ate one quail egg and finally got to the noodles. Even half into the meal time, the noodles are still not soggy. The sliced beef rice is also good. Soft beef and good flavor of sauce to go with the white rice. The steamed broccoli is fresh and appetizing. Service is courteous and friendly. Tables and chairs were wiped, tea was refilled, and a small free appetizer of pickle and peanuts was served. I would hope the food came a bit faster but overall a very satisfying experience. I wish I saved room to try their desserts next time. read more

Overall 4.5 out of 5 THE GOOD ° The beef noodle with braised beef was a banger! (4.5 out 5) - very generous with braised beef! ° Wife got the Numb & Spicy fish soup (5 out of 5) - generous with the amount of fish too. ° They have fries for the young ones and those who cannot appreciate a good noodle dish. ° Tables are consistently cleared and cleaned quickly. ° Decorations are nice. ° Friendly service. THE BAD ° Initially forgot to get us waters. - They did make up for it though. The server noticed and had waters brought asap. ° I wish the spoons are a bit more surface area. The noodles are slippery and it was hard to get them to stay on the spoon. THE UGLY ° Nothing On a more comedic note, I made my oldest and pickiest son try the broth. His comments were, "It's taste a little bit ugly (probably meant the way it looks) but it's good!". Hey, I'll take it! read more

Five Grains Noodle House - Beef Noodle with Braised Beef (solid 4.5 out of 5!). Very generous with protein. - Noodles Near Me - Fremont, California

We were craving noodles and decided to try this place since we are always here in the area for boba. The place was buys but not too busy where you couldn't find any seats. The menu and ordering is through the QR code. We asked for tea but the tea is not to our liking. It tasted like there's sweetness added and the flavor wasn't that good. I would suggest just getting water. What we ordered: Braised beef noodle soup. Rice noodle soup with pickled string beans and minced pork. Both soup flavor is spectacular! The braised beef itself could have been better. The beef didn't have a good texture and was pretty rough. The string beans with minced pork was good. I wish both bowls had a bit more noodles. Usually going to a noodle place I leave pretty stuffed but I was still hungry. I definitely would come back and try other things. Not bad place, price is pretty good with decent food. read more

No pain, no GRAIN. 2023 was the year I said work out for the first time and try as many new restaurants as I can. .:: Food::. Pickled Pepper Flavor Grain Rice Noodle with Snakehead Fish $16.95: comes with tofu, pickled cabbage, green onion, and cilantro. I liked this one more than the other soup we got. Way more homey, flavorful, depth... and the fish was super fresh tasting. As per the shop name, the noodles come with 5 different types of grain: rice, buckwheat, corn, sorghum, and peas which give the bowl its unique look with 5 different colors of noodles Rice Noodles with Pickled String beans and Minced Pork $15.95: comes with tofu, pickled cabbage, green onion, and cilantro. a bit more spicy and not much depth as the other soup, it was more 1 dimensional with its taste. Not much meat to it, very little amount. .:: Ambiance / Service / Parking ::. The place is very simple, yellow themed wall with a painting of different grains. There was a good amount of tables.

Parking was fairly easy as it was located in a plaza read more

Friends recommended this restaurant to us. So decided to give it a try. The five grains noodles is unique, and good from a nutritional standpoint. The flavor is negligible as you can't really taste the difference. But they go well with the fish soup that we had together with the beef. Kids like it as well. Serving size is big as we ordered extra noodles but didn't need it. The dry ground pork with green beans over noodles was delicious. With it being slightly spicy, it was just right for my taste. The beef with rice was flavorful, but make sure you're a fan of onions as there was lots of onions and I love it. read more

I strongly recommend getting the Signature Five-Grain Original Noodle Soup with Snakehead Fish. This creamy white seafood broth is perfection. I thought the best fish broth I've ever had was in Qian Dao Hu with their famous fish head soup, but this comes very close. While the five colored noodles are aesthetic, taste wise I didn't leave that impressed to be honest. Also, just a heads up to anyone who was thinking of getting the Fish Balls Noodle Soup -- this is not their signature bowl but with fish balls instead of actual slices of fish, no -- the broth seems to be entirely different, almost with a chicken bouillon flavor, somewhat reminiscent of Top Ramen. So I'd stick with the Signature. We really enjoyed our lunch here. The service was friendly, and they topped off our hot tea regularly. Loved the complimentary peanuts and pickled daikon. read more

I ordered the Numb & Spicy Grain Noodle with Snakehead Fish, and it was pretty delicious! I really enjoyed the texture-- these noodles have the perfect amount of chew, and the tricolor noodles were visually appealing as well. As for the soup, the balance of spicy and sour was great as well. The fish was very tender, and while the flavor was bit too fishy for my tastes, the soup overall was quite tasty. Staff are very kind, and I think it's definitely worth a visit! read more

Service was good and I liked the monk fruit tea. Nice touch. We ordered the original flavor fish noodle w/ snakehead fish and the pickled noodle soup with sliced beef. The best part was the fish broth. It was milky and tasty without being too salty. The sliced snakehead fish tasted like the one I ordered from Weee and the noodle was not bad. The pickled noodle soup with sliced beef was surprisingly spicy and the sliced beef was only ok. Between the two noodles, I would definitely go for the fish noodle. They were out of braised beef noodle soup so we didn't get to try that. We also ordered several appetizers: the seaweed (a little bit too thick and not spicy at all), the sliced beef shank and tendon combo platter, and the cucumber. I liked the cucumber the best out of the three. The sliced beef shank and tendon can be skipped in my opinion. it was totally tasteless. If I am in the hood, I would go back but probably not out of my way to get there. read more

I sat down for lunch, and ordered the brisket, tomato sauce, noodle bowl, boy that was so yummy so many depths of flavor and the dish is very generous. I had half of it.

Very pleasant experience and will definitely come back. read more

Been here countless of times! Introduced this place to my parents and you know most Chinese parents prefer sticking to Chinese food. They enjoyed the unique noodles and snakehead fish here as much as my partner and I do. Love their warm tea, and the pickled radish. We always order a side plate of stewed pig ears because they're so delicious!! The first time we were here, we were given a voucher to get a discount on the next visit--which was sweet! It easily became one of my favorite noodle places. My parents and I did notice the latest visit here that the quality and amount of ingredients have declined. They used to be generous with the ingredients, perhaps it could be because their business has increased, not sure. read more

Very flavorful broth with colorful noodles! I've never had this much fun eating noodles and this feels like it's the adult version of those kid shaped pasta. The noodles have a slight different texture depending on the color and what they are made of. The broth is super umami and served very hot, perfect for the cold weather. Came here at around 5:30pm for an early dinner and the place was quiet with no wait time. Service was fast and the staff were all very nice. Would love to come back and try other dishes from here! read more

Second visit! Same great service, same great tasting food, same fair prices! We came first thing in the morning and as last time, the place was clean and well lit - perfect impression to the dining service to come. We had such a great experience the first time around, we took first opportunity we had to dine out with the family to come here again. We ordered just about the same dishes as last time (fish noodle and braised beef noodle, pork ears, and cartilage) with the addition of seaweed salad and opting for tea instead of water. The seaweed salad was a great accent to the meal, adding a bit of temperature variation (the seaweed salad is served cold) and texture (the seaweed salad is cut irregularly). It's unlike the ones you typically see as it's not artificially colored and just tastes more natural. I enjoyed it a lot and even tried adding it to the noodles for an extra flavor profile. The hot tea was awesome! It's a bit sweet, has a light herbal taste but it cleansed the palette quite well and soothed the throat and stomach as we dined. The kids were especially fond of it and asked for refills. The staff again offered a flawless dining experience! Quick to refill our drinks and attentive to our needs and requests (extra bowls). This group of individuals really know how to take care of their customers! Needless to say, we will be regulars. The thing that piques potential customers most so far has been the five-colored noodles (due to the five different grains used to make the noodles). If you're like us and are a fan, tell your friends (maybe take the opportunity to dine together)! read more

Excellant new casual eatery in their soft opening phase, but definitely a keeper amongst noodle houses in the Fremont area. Serving their house-specialty "five grains" noodles gives a fairly unique texture as each grain has its own individual noodles. Punchy flavors across the broth and toppings, plus remarkably nice complimentary munchies and great value at the price...it's hard to ask for more. Definitely worth a try! Service was solid with quick refills of (complimentary) tea, politely fielding questions about the menu, and fast dinnerware service. Also nice freebies of pickled radish (?) and roasted peanuts for you to munch on as you briefly wait for food. The tea they offer is atypical to be sure, but is an absolutely delicious chilled tea. QR code leads to their online ordering system that is also synchronized across devices (rather convenient). Menu is heavier on Chinese-style fish noodle soups (with pork bone broths), but beef bowls do exist and despite some menu mislabeling they don't mix the meats. I'd definitely suggest their noodles as their five grain blend (corn, rice, buckwheat, sorghum, and pea) does make for a unique noodle texture experience. Tilapia Five Grains Bowl Combo - 5/5 Their combo bowl provides excellant value with a gigantic bowl of noodle soup plus side and drink. The drink also so happens to include their white fungus dessert soup, making a quite complete meal for 20 some bucks. The beef shank and white fungus (with lychee and mango) were great and definitely worth the added price, but the heart and soul is the noodle soup to be sure. The pickled pepper browth is surprisingly hearty and punchy in flavors without being too heavy on the stomach. The tilapia was a bit fishy at times, but not to a significant detriment as it was generally bouncy and fresh otherwise with an ample amount of fish slices. Beef Noodle Soup - 5/5 Punchy in all the right ways. It boasts fragrant beefy overtones and a slightly spicier kick compared to the tilapia bowl. Otherwise, it shares similarities with the base broth and noodles. The serving size is generous, with plenty of meat to satisfy your cravings. read more

Best fish noodle soup I've ever had. I loved the different types of noodles (all with the perfect bite), variety of toppings (balls, tofu, veggies, hearty amount of fish).

Not busy for a Thursday for dinner. Service was great and the offer complimentary tea. read more

As someone who has seen businesses move in, struggle, and move back out of this location, I'm happy to see an uncommon restaurant with raveable food take its spot and hopefully stay for a while. Inside is on the smaller side, which makes it seem almost like a homestyle Chinese restaurant, but the furniture and cleanliness bring a degree of modernity. My mom and I waited for around 15 minutes on a Saturday for lunch. Service was okay - they push efficiency but don't come around too often to check up on you unless you ask (might have to ask twice or three times). Hot and Sour Grain Rice Noodles with Tilapia ($13.95): Mom's default order. Fish broth is warm and intense, and the assorted toppings (fish, tofu, bok choy, cabbage) complement the sour flavors so well. Definitely a hit even in the hot weather we've been having. Beef Sweet and Sour Soup ($9.99): Looking at the menu I can't seem to find it again, but when we ate it said it was a new item so hopefully it returns. This broth was ice cold and much sweeter, topped with a couple of slices of beef shank, cilantro, quail egg, and cabbage. The most attractive things about this dish in particular were its price point and the fact that it was cold. If you've ever had Vietnamese fish sauce diluted to dippable levels, then sweetened and mixed with some chili peppers, that would be a fairly accurate description of what the broth tasted like. I would definitely return for this dish alone. White Fungus Soup (4.99): Springy fungus mixed with goji berries and longan and drowning in thinned out sugar syrup. Ours was served warm but you might be able to request it cold - regardless of temperature it was sweet and delicious. Peach Jelly (3.99): Okay for some reason some of the items we were able to try aren't popping up on the menu right now, and this was unfortunately one of them. This was pretty much konjac jelly in peach syrup with golden raisins, longan, and strawberry, but when I tell you it was one of the most simply refreshing things I've had in a while I am not kidding. Get it if it's available! All in all, great experience. Close enough to my house to become a regular visitor! read more

I visited Five Grains Noodle House again, this time with a friend who was visiting and my girlfriend. Honestly, I can't get enough of this place and keep coming back for more. Food: 4.5/5 The food is still amazing. This time, we tried the Chinese Style Spicy Grain Noodles (swai fillet), Numb & Spicy Grain Rice Noodles with Snakehead fish, Beef Shank and Tendon, Sauteed Chicken Gristle, and the Original Grain Rice Noodles with Swai Fillet. The Original Grain Rice Noodles with Swai Fillet was decent, but not my favorite. I definitely loved the Chinese Style Spicy Grain Noodles (swai fillet) and Numb & Spicy Grain Rice Noodles with Snakehead fish the most. Customer Service: 5/5 The service was just as excellent as before. Our server was super attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed. Price and Value: 5/5 Still worth every penny. The portions are generous, and the quality is still good Ambiance: 5/5 It was pretty quiet this time during lunch, which made for a relaxing meal.

I came here on a Friday afternoon with my mom, who has dined here before with her friend for lunch. She was impressed by the noodle soups, and knowing that I try to avoid red meat for health and environmental reasons, Five Grains Noodle House is one of the places nearby that had many noodle soups I could choose from! They do also have beef noodle soup for those interested in that too. The dining room is clean and new looking, and the service was very attentive and nice for our entire experience. As we sat down, my mom ordered the tea since she had it last time, and she said it was good. Turns out, it has monk fruit (lo han guo) in it, which I do not like in other drinks but wow this was delicious! In addition, after we ordered on our phones, they gave us some delicious chilled pickled radish and roasted peanuts to snack on. Food ordered: 1. Original Grain Rice Noodles With Tilapia: 4.5/5 This was the first item on the menu, so I think it's main dish for first timers to order. The noodles were like starch noodles, meaning that they break easily. In other words, the noodles are not chewy, but you will be chewing from all the small pieces of noodle. Anyways, I like the fish soup and noodles, but because this is a classic fish broth, the flavor isn't super pungent. So if you like a lighter broth, you will like this. There was also a surprisingly good amount of tilapia fillets in my soup. 2. Numb & Spicy Grain Rice Noodles With Tilapia: 4/5 My mom ordered this noodle soup this time and it was good. The noodles, fish and toppings, are pretty much the same but the broth has a numbing Sichuan spice, and a little more depth to it. If you are feeling spicy, this is a good soup to try, and there was also a good amount of fish fillets. My mom did mention that she thinks there was more fish this time than in the soup she had when she visited months back. Near the end of our meal, we received a white fungus dessert drink which was good. Overall, great experience and I will be back. read more

Very good. Add this to place the growing list of great Chinese noodle houses in the tri-city area, which makes up for the lackluster ramen scene. The five noodles are from five different types of grains. The restaurant bills itself as a healthy option and lives up to the billing. The soup base is clean (not a bunch of unnecessary stuff) but still very flavorful. Good size portion and good deal overall. read more

The noodles somehow is really bad compared to when it just opened. The noodles are chewy in a way that's not purely grains but with some plastic feeling. More importantly after the leftover soaking in the broth for more than 24 hours, the noodle texture didn't change! Thats scary! It should be soggy. Noodle would be zero stars, but staff deserves 5 stars. So overall 2 stars. I felt like i ate some plastics instead of noodles read more

first time here and will say staffs are so attentive and nice. the place itself is quite spacious with good ambiance. prices are average. the foods: 1. cucumber salad: recommended!!! they marinate well and when you eat, they are so crunchy and have great flavor... 2. braised pig ears: love when they cut them so thin and still crunchy. will say expect to have a bit spicy... 3. braised beef tendon: though they are cut very thin but i will say need to cook a little bit longer. it is still a bit hard and need a bit spicy, i think... 4. original flavor grain rice noodles with sliced beef: love the way they cook the noodles. the soup is flavorful but need a bit hotter in temperature ( at least for me... ) read more

Five Grains Noodle House - braised beef tendon, cucumber salad, braised pig ears, and original flavor grain rice noodles with sliced beef... - Noodles Near Me - Fremont, California

I have not been so happy from a bowl of noodles, in a very long time, and I love noods!!!! Bright, clean, well branded, good customer service, and free pickles/peanuts to start. Who doesn't love free stuff. I got the hot and sour fish noodle soup with snakehead (I don't particularly like Tilapia), and my husband got the numbing and spicy intestine noodle soup; that's basically us in a nutshell, as foodies. I like sour and spicy and fishy and he likes numbing and spicy and hearty intestines as his protein choice. The noodles are QQ and falls closer in line with rice noodles than wheat noodles, as a reference for others if curious. The broths are AMAZING, and the ratios in the noodle soups are perfect, don't even need the "extra noodle or extra whatever". We did get the half beef shank and half tendon cold dish, they were good, would have preferred spicier, but that's just us. Water was refilled often and just can't complain about anything else. Then, cool down your palate with YiFang tea next door. I am a customer for life and shouting it from the rooftops! read more

Delicious noodle soup place. I got the spicy and sour flavor noodle soup with swai fillet. It was cool to see the different color noodles due to the five grains. The noodles were also soft and silky - kind of like a rice noodle spaghetti texture. The broth was also really good and flavorful and had the perfect amount of spice. It also nice that they give you tea, and a small radish like appetizer and peanuts. Overall, good place for a nice hot bowl of comfort noodles. read more

This place is pretty interesting, serving mostly fish based soup with 5 different noodles in one bowl. the five grain noodles are interesting as it feel a bit like pasta and rice noodle mix together.

Thank you for the great food and service, hope you can reopen at a nearby location soon! read more
