We went here for Saturday dinner. We ordered two noodle soups - one with readied beef and one with swai fillet. Pictures with more details. There are two staff in the front. STARS -Food quality is so good. Good variety of meat, quail egg, vegetable, broth and noodles -Multi color noodles are so unique and delicious -Tomato and original soup broth are tasty. Not too salty -Price is reasonable and affordable -Option of complimentary water or sweet tea drink (water was in recyclable cup with cap for kids) -Complimentary salted peanuts and picked vegetables also provided -East order system with QR code -Great customer service including making share sun glare was not in our eyes, offering refills for drinks and offering containers without prompting -Clean bathroom -Booster seat and high chair available -Not too many television screens (only one) - plus for me since I want to reduce screen time for family STAIRS (areas of growth) -Wish they offered kid utensils and straws that were compostable but most restaurants seem to do the same -Would be good if bathroom has baby changing table . I didn't see one. -Recommend a discounts to help bring loyal customers back (e.g. BOGO on special occasions, free birthday meal with at least 1 paid meal) TIPS -Senior discounts on Tuesdays -Free snack for kids on Wednesdays -Yelp check in has 10% off coupon -Portions are pretty big and filling so you could eat your own bowl if you are hungry or share if you are not hungry or don't eat a lot I feel this place is very underrated and more people need to know how awesome this place is!

We have been here a few times, and this place has never disappointed us. We love their spicy and non-spicy soup noodles. Also, they serve very decent bowls. They serve very nice hot tea and appetizers. The staff is always friendly. The shop is clean and has many seats. The plaza has plenty of parking. And close by YI Fang.

Spicy hot and sour fish soup ...Yumm 10/10
Amruta D.

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.

Ground pork dry noodle
Sammy T.

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!)

If you're wondering if it's worth it? The answer is YES. 5 Grains is quite up there in my list of authentic Chinese noodle list. This place and Ox 9 go head to head. The pork ear dish is soo goood, def worth getting. Overall, highly reccomend!

Braised beef shank and beef tendon
Siu M.

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.

Walked by & decided I was in the mood for trying something new instead of our usual take out spot. Ordered fish soup noodle & a dry noodle. They gave me a lovely hot tea that tasted of dates while I waited. Service as great & I liked the cute & super clean interior. Devoured the good at home before any photos- but we enjoyed it a lot & plan to return & dine in next time.

Original grain noodle with snakehead fish
LeeLee C.

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.

Entrance with signage...

Five Grains Noodle House opened where Firepoint BBQ & Noodle was. Decor definitely changed. Seating is 15+ tables though it looks bigger from outside. Order from QR code on table. Had problem when the "39" app. Couldn't navigate inputing the "password" 2 factor authentication system. Server placed my order.. Within minutes, was served soup, appetizers, snacks. Main soup just 5 to 10 minutes. System efficiently moved food quickly Offerings: Five Grains (rice, corn, sorghum, peas, buckwheat) Noodle Soups & its variants (beef, pork, fish, others) with many broth options, dessert, drinks, beers, dry noodles, rice plates, appetizers & snacks, soups, combos... Eats: combo with snakehead fish noodle soup (23.75) Comped salted peanuts, sliced radish -fresh, tasty, yummy.. - tea: robust flavor, not watery tea bag kind. Tendon appetizers -not tuff chewy, tender thinly sliced. Slight chew. Yum! Cloud soup-listed as option under "drink" -actually a dessert, semi-sweet "soup" with hydrated snow fungus, gogi berries, mini lychee. -everyone would like this, especially young patrons Snakehead Fish Five Grain Noodle Soup -rich milky broth tasting like tonkotsu with cabbage, vegetables, pickled cabbage, green onions, cilantro.. -noodles al dente, taste similar to rice noodles. - smooth, crispy fish, fried silken tofu, silken tofu, quail eggs paired well with slurpy noodles 4.71 stars. Luv snakehead fish version, unsure how other soup options taste like.

Beef Noodle with Braised Beef (solid 4.5 out of 5!). Very generous with protein.
Marshal R.

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!

Pickled string bean with minced pork
Jade L.

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.

Anna C.

Revisiting this restaurant just a week after our first visit, tried 3 new noodle soups (tomatoes soup base, spicy and sour base and original fish soup base) and they are all very satisfying! This will become my go to spot for fish soup based noodles!

Rice noodles with pickled string beans and minced pork $15.95
Chena N.

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. Our waitresses were all very friendly. Got seated immediately on a Sunday at around 1pm for a table of 2. Food came in a timely manner after ordering on the app scanning the QR code. Parking was fairly easy as it was located in a plaza

One Piece Lamian specializes in Chinese noodle dishes, all with an efficient QR code ordering…read moresystem and super quick service. We started with the One Piece Mixed Salad (tofu skin, vermicelli noodles, woodear mushrooms, carrots, celery, seaweed, and peanuts, all mixed in a savory, acidic, and spicy dressed ) and the Shredded Potato Salad, both of which made for nice appetizers. We also had the Cold Skin Noodles (Liangpi), a bowl of wide, chewy noodles mixed with a savory sauce and topped with tofu puffs, shredded cucumber , bean sprouts, and a creamy sesame sauce. Hailing from Xi'an, the Braised Pork Pita Burger was fatty pieces of pork braised in a savory sauce, served in a dry round of "pita," but even better was the Spicy Cumin Lamb Pita Burger, which contained a tantalizingly spicy, flavorful filling of tender spiced lamb. The Signature Beef Bone Noodle Soup came with noodles in a simple broth, topped with three bone-in beef ribs. The meat on the ribs was rather tough and sinewy, and the soup on the bland side, but the presentation of the dish was definitely impressive. Finally, the House Special Braised Dry Noodle was a bowl of noodles topped with a savory sauce with lots of different dried ingredients including tofu, s mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and red bell peppers. For each noodle dish, you could select from a variety of noodles, but my favorite by far was the 2cm "General Wide" noodles, which had an amazing chewy texture. Overall, this was a great restaurant for authentic Northern Chinese noodle dishes and other eats. Everything came out from the kitchen in just minutes after we ordered. The tasty dishes came at a good value, and the service was super friendly too!

This is way overdue. I have been patronizing this place for a long while. My family and I both love…read morethis; and I use the word *love*... that is how much we enjoy a meal there. Why haven't I written anything about this? Because we were too busy enjoying every slurp of broth, wrestling with every strand of slippery slurp-worthy noodles, and savoring every bite of melt-in-your-mouth tender meat. By the time I'm done, I'm typically in a food coma. Writing a review is the last thing on my mind. Once you sit at your table, look for a QR code. Use your brand-spanking-new phone, turn on the camera, and poof! You'll be directed to the menu, where you can order from there. Or you can use your brand-new iDuo (you know what I mean... hehehe). Ok, ok, I understand; some of us prefer the human touch, and with fading eyesight like mine, some of us prefer a physical menu. Just ask the staff; they'd be glad to hand you a huge menu board. You can also order directly from the staff. Personally, I love to poke around on my phone and browse until I find the noodles that will make my stomach growl. It's like online shopping, except the reward is a bowl of delicious noodles instead of another package arriving at your doorstep. My kids' go-to order is the braised pork rib noodle soup with thin noodles. The aroma of the rich, savory broth is complemented by five-spice seasoning and a hint of spiciness. Wonder how my kids handle the heat? They're 7 and 10 years old. It's not that spicy, but here's a tip: just note in your order that you'd like it *not too spicy*. The broth is already spicy, so they can't make it completely non-spicy, ok? Promise you won't be *that person*? Please? As for my wife, since she's trying to cut down on carbs a bit... just a bit, mind you... she typically opts for the wonton soup. A delicious bowl of savory, meat-filled dumplings swimming in a hot sea of seaweed broth. It's comforting, flavorful, and has more than enough dumplings to deliver a satisfying dose of protein and carbs to fill the stomach. See? Even when we're trying to eat a little healthier, we don't have to sacrifice good food. We're cutting down on carbs, not on happiness! Hehehe. I would typically order the Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup with thick, broad noodles. The clear, savory broth comes with green onions, chives, and cilantro (you can opt out of the cilantro if that's not your thing). Personally, I'd kill for that hot broth and the chewiness of those thick, broad noodles. Just thinking about it makes me hungry, especially with the fall weather we're having now. You can also add a splash of black vinegar and chili oil at the very end, right before I slurp up the broth faster than my wife can finish her boba milk tea. And trust me, that's saying something! As for the sides or appetizers, here are my recommendations: - **Braised Pork Pita Burger** -- A must-try if you want something delicious to go with your noodles. - **Mixed Salad (one piece)** -- A nice little something to balance out all that rich, savory goodness. - **House Special Numbing & Spicy Chicken** -- For those who enjoy a little kick and a little tingle on the tongue. - **Spicy Cold-Cut Beef** -- Yes, there's a lot of oil, but the flavor and aroma are ughhh... GOOD! You know that moment when you take a bite and your brain just goes, "Ohhh, yeah!"? That's the one. - **Chili Oil on Cold Mung Bean Jelly** -- It's a whole texture experience. Think of a firm, nutty jelly with a savory, spicy sauce. Don't knock it till you've tried it! You know what... I'll just keep going and going until there's not enough space left to write this review. At this rate, I'll end up writing a whole food memoir instead of a restaurant review. Just stop reading now and go. Seriously. GO! Don't worry, I won't stop you. I won't be offended either if you didn't read all my words. After all, you should be spending that time eating noodles, not reading about them. You're welcome. Now go slurp something delicious!

She was working by herself while taking care of so many tables, yet she never seemed overwhelmed. She took great care of everyone and always had a warm smile on her face.

I love spicy food and can easily handle Buffalo Wild Wings' spiciest sauce without a problem, so I went with the "Spicy (9-10)" level. However, since I'm not as familiar with Chinese peppercorn heat, I decided to be safe and chose the "Standard Numbing Spice" option instead of extra. Omg, I still made a mistake. That Chinese peppercorn was intense and spicy! While I still enjoyed the flavor because the noodles themselves were so good, the numbing effect was just a bit much for me. Next time, I'll definitely drop down to "Less Numbing Spice" so I can enjoy the dish more. Just wanted to let you all know!

My friends and I each got a beef noodle soup and a pork chop fried rice to share. We also split the century egg with tofu appetizer (15% off with entree order). Ironically enough, the fried rice was my favorite. It was seasoned really well, wasn't too oily, but had that wok aroma. The pork chop was also seasoned well and the meat was high quality. I got the beef shank noodle soup with flat noodles. I am a wider noodle type of gal, but I think I would go with the thin noodles next time. Those feel more inherently "correct" for a beef noodle soup dish. I got 3 decently sized pieces of meat. Meat was really tender. Overall a delicious experience. Definitely one of my favorite beef noodle soup spots in the bay. It was $18 for the beef shank noodle soup. A bit pricier but a decent amount of food.

Food: 4.1 = comfort food Service: 4.0 fast straight forward…read more We've been coming here for over 20 years and not much has changed except for the occasional update of their menu (which meant they raised their prices which hasn't been that often over the years) Ordered: fried chicken wings, wonton beef stew, and Birds nest. Make sure if you want to eat the wings as an appetizer let them know when you order. Typically soups come out fast which happened on our visit (yeah, I forgot to tell them to hold the soup until the wings come out).

Delicious and hits the spot if you're really craving Shanghainese food…read more Located in a tiny strip mall, parking is almost nonexistent so if you don't want to risk it, park at the old bowling alley next door. As for the restaurant itself, it is also small. Can sit at most ~25-30 ppl at a time. The owners are really nice and give good suggestions. The weekends tend to have the longest wait as we waited 10 min for a table. We usually order takeout from here. The pork rice is one of their specialties and delicious. As for today, we had the following: 1) Seaweed wonton soup: savory, delicious, and 15 wontons in there! 2) soup dumplings: lots of soup and you can tell it's homemade. Each serving comes with 8. No need to go to DTF. 3) I was craving rice cake today. Also homemade and fresh. The dish didn't taste oily and overly heavy either. 4) braised beef noodle soup: this I would consider ok as I have had more flavorful broths. But meat is tender. Noodles are fresh and gets the job done. We had all of that for ~$50 so good value and good portion size. 10/10 will come back and recommend.

We ordered a few dish, Cooked chicken in rice wine, Shanghai-style bun, napa cabbage with rice…read morecake, pan-fried pork bun, and braised beef noodle. The only dish I thought was decent was the napa cabbage with rice cake. Even though it's a bit different from what I had before, the flavor was good. The rest of the dishes were disappointing, and I would not recommend them. The cooked chicken in rice wine was way too overcooked. The Shanghai-style soup bun had wrappers that were too thick, and the filling was too greasy. The pan-fried pork bun tasted ok, but you could tell the seasoning was too salty. The raised beef noodle soup was really a meh, noodles were all stuck together, the broth was mid, and the beef was very tough and overcooked.
