    The gone down hill Singapore noodles
    Steven T.

    It was time to visit an old friend and get my favorite Singapore noodles that I have gotten here since they first opened almost 10 years ago. My first thought is that it's not as nice as it once was and looks dumpyer and different with a different interior because the sushi counter and sweets counter is completely gone. I get my Singapore noodles home and it doesn't look as good as I remember it because all the shrimp dishes I have had have nice looking average sized shrimp and the shrimp's in todays order were half the size and pathetic frozen looking. I have eaten here a little under 10 times on average once a year and I have never had a problem with the food until today, is this even the same place because the restaurant and food doesn't look the same anymore. You can see in my previous pictures that the shrimps are decent looking compared to todays shrimp.

    Sweet And Sour Crispy Pork
    Lico J.

    We had a wonderful dinner at the new Fusion Cafe. I always like northeastern Chinese cuisine and used to eat a lot when I lived in China. We were impressed by the good flavors here. We ordered Sweet And Sour Crispy Pork, Napa & Pork Dumplings, Stewed Pork With Pickled Napa & Glass Noodles and Stir Fried Green Beans & Eggplant. Napa & Pork Dumplings were definitely homemade style and we loved the fillings. So flavorful. The dough was fresh and slightly chewy. Yummm. Stewed Pork With Pickled Napa & Glass Noodles and Stir Fried Green Beans & Eggplant were both authentic, savory and great dishes to eat with rice. Sweet And Sour Crispy Pork ("Guo Bao Rou") always ranks NO.1 in my mind when it comes to NE Chinese food. I thought they did an ok job here - fresh and hot out of frying pan and the portion size was big. I just wish the pork and the breading could both be thinner and there could be a bit more sauce on the meat. The new owners were so friendly. We loved chatting with them. Overall, we feel so happy that there's a NE Chinese restaurant in Milwaukee and will definitely come back to try more dishes!

    Pretty authentic chinese restaurant. Clean and nice environment. Service is friendly. The couple of dishes we ordered have similar sauce in flavor. They are good but on the salty end. Looking forward to trying other dishes next time we are near by!

    Ox Tail soup with hand pulled noodles
    Sandy N.

    I don't come here for the sushi, I come here for the noodle soup! I highly recommend this joint if you're looking for soup with handmade noodles. My favorite soup is the Beef Shank Soup with handmade noodles. I upgrade my broth to hot&spicy for $.50 more. It is definitely worth the upcharge for the spices but I wouldn't say it is any spicier than mild-medium. It is the perfect spice for a fall evening. If you want to switch up the meat then the Ox Tail is great choice as well. I am pretty sure it is the same broth for both. I also recommend the Wonton Noodle Soup if you want a clean and clear broth with wontons. Perfect for sick days! My last recommendation is their crabrangoons. They are the classic star shape and you get 6 pieces for $4.95. Each rangoon are perfectly crisp and generously filled. Definitely check out Fusion Cafe for their noodle soups this fall. You won't regret it!

    B1. Cumin Lamb
    Joyce L.

    What can I say?! I'm so glad the restaurant changed ownership because I purposefully never went to fusion cafe because they sold sushi Chinese food . I came here after my friend suggested that their northern Chinese cuisine was excellent and I was right to listen to them and went to Fusion Cafe for the first time. My partner and I love the cumin lamb and sautéed string beans from Sze Chuan restaurant, so we decided to try the same thing here to compare the two restaurants. I can say that their cumin lamb is fantastic and they definitely give more lamb than other ingredients, compared to Sze chain where you will often get more jalapeños than lamb. As for the string beans, I prefer Sze chuan restaurant's version more, though it was also very good here. The other two dishes we got were both recommended by the waitress and they did not miss. God, the handmade noodles in the pork and pepper sauce were SO GOOD, the noodles were the most QQ noodles I've had in Milwaukee and I can't wait to come back for more. The sweet sour pork was also good but it the coating could have a little more flavor or it can be offered with more sauce on the side. Nevertheless I still enjoyed every bite. I'm so glad to have tried the restaurant, can't wait to go back.

    Chicken fried noodles
    Jean B.

    The restaurant is super clean. The staff was friendly. I ordered the chicken fried noodles dish. It was served quickly and piping hot! It was good. Noodles, chicken, carrots, onion and some kind of cabbage (?). The dish was a bit on the spicy side...not right away but after a few bites. I was the only non-asian in the restaurant which tells me it's good! Cons - I never received a napkin and no one asked about my meal.

    Beef Noodle Soup
    Lauren B.

    We tried Fusion Cafe on a Saturday night recently; it was pretty empty but we loved all the delicious flavors! We were really excited to try the Beef Stew Noodle dish, since we've only had it one other time in another city, and have been eager to find another place that makes it. Now I am not a connoisseur on noodle dishes but I ate this dish up so quickly. The noodles tasted homemade, the beef was tender and delicious and the broth was so flavorful; it truly was a perfect dish for a cold day. I also recommend getting dumplings to start; we got the chive and pork; dipping them in the chili oil and soy sauce. The place is nothing fancy, and ambience is lacking, but you're truly just going there for the good food. We can't wait to try more dishes!

    I've been here twice now and I absolutely love it. The restaurant doesn't look like much when you walk in, but there's plenty of seating for large parties. The owners are incredibly friendly very accommodating for vegetarians like myself. I'll definitely be coming back in the future. THE MALA TOFU IS AMAZING

    I really enjoyed my meal at Fusion! It wasn't very busy on a Saturday evening. The menu is cohesive and descriptive, which is something most Asian restaurants lack. It was nice to have an idea of what comes on a plate before ordering. The atmosphere is very simple. Nothing fancy, but not dirty by any means. Service was great. Jacob and I ordered a couple beers along with our food. The drinks came up immediately. The food didn't take too long but the place was practically empty by then. My chicken dish was tasty though it needed hot sauce for a little "oomph". There wasn't a ton of chicken throughout but enough to make a meal along with the two pounds of noodles. Jacob really enjoyed his dish, though it was also a little light on protein. We ordered a Philadelphia roll and we were fighting over it. Great price for it, and the salmon tasted very fresh. Overall, we had a great affordable meal (with enough for leftovers) and friendly service. I'd stop in again.

    Awesome little place !! They have chicken mei fun (chicken rice noodles) that is sooo good! Probably one of the best I've had. Sushi is very very good, maybe a little overpriced though. Still a great place. Highly recommend!

    Singapore noodles
    Sarah I.

    Tried this place out for the first time. Decided to get the Singapore noodles based on the reviews from Yelp along with the crispy spring rolls. Due to Covid you're not allowed to come into the restaurant. They have a table blocking the door when you come in and they will come to you to take your payment and give you your food. I called my order in and they were very pleasant on the phone. When I arrived my food was ready to go they took my payment and I was out of there. It was very fast service. The Singapore noodles were good however I've had better. It was lacking in flavor and not very spicy. The crispy spring rolls were excellent! Very crispy and quite tasty and I loved the sweet-and-sour sauce that came with it. Based on my meal choice I'll have to go back again and try other items on the menu seeing I wasn't blown away by the Singapore noodles. They have quite a large menu so I do look forward to trying other items on it.

    Singapore Rice Noodles. They were not good. The meat and the red cabbage (at least, I think that's what it was) was suspicious.
    Ashley H.

    This used to be one of my favorite Asian restaurants in West Allis. My go-to was ALWAYS their Singapore noodles, pan-fried dumplings, and fried chicken cutlet. Their tempura chicken sushi was also fantastic. I also loved the way they handled sanitation, masks, and no-contact service during the peak of the pandemic this past year. But all of that is now out of the window with the new owners. Not only has the menu changed, but the staples of the restaurant that I used to get are just plain not good. This is my first Yelp review EVER, so this should tell you I was pretty turned off by the experience. The pan fried dumplings had the weirdest texture and taste I have ever experienced whilst eating a pan-fried dumpling (and I have eaten A LOT of dumplings). I was told they were "homemade" and tasted different than the previous owner's dumplings. But, these legitimately tasted like they should have been made at home and stayed at home. Same goes for the Singapore noodles I ordered. They were darker than any Singapore noodle I've ever had and had the appearance of being burnt/overcooked (it's usually in a yellow curry sauce, while this was straight up brown and caked in clumps of curry powder). The meat was verrrry questionable looking. I couldn't even eat the steak or chicken in the dish because it looked and tasted so off, for lack of a better phrase. The shrimp didn't even look like shrimp. It was this weird twisted coil of meat. The bubble tea was even meh. You could tell it was just an instant powder mix. Nothing special. Oh, and the cherry on top of it all? The 3 things I ordered cost about $6 more than what I'd usually spend, and that's including a tip. I paid $30+ for a very, very subpar meal. All in all, i'm super bummed about this. I made a special trip to Stallis just so I could eat here, because to me, they were the best in the area. And they had a fun-solid, all-around menu. I constantly recommended this place to people. Now I won't even give it a second thought for myself, or anyone else for that matter. Shame that a change in ownership can change so much about a restaurant. If you haven't been to this place in the past 3-months, I wouldn't go out of your way for it. I, sadly, won't be back. P.s. To whom it may concern, they no-longer wear masks in the restaurant and offer in-restaurant dining. No-contactless service as far as I could see.

H Mart was my favorite, followed by Ranch 99. Unfortunately, here in Wisconsin, I have to now drive nearly 10 miles to get to the closest Asian market! So when I heard Pan Asian was opening in my area (2-3 years ago), I literally marked my calendar for opening day. I'm so happy they're a part of the community now! First off, today, LOUIS deserves a big gold star (if not a raise, hint hint, management, lol). Not only did he stop what he was doing, but walked me over to what I was looking for. TWICE. No eye-rolling, no exasperated sighs - nope, he just said "sure, it's right over here..." THAT kind of customer support alone goes MILES for those who are new or unfamiliar with a place (as I was), and makes me want to return again soon! Like many Asian stores, Pan Asian had elements of "chaos" throughout the store - they were doing lots of stocking when I was there (mid-afternoon on a Wednesday), and the music was a bit too loud (Note to management: background music is supposed to be just that - in the background, quiet and atmospheric - not a dance club). As at other stores, Pan Asian needs to keep tabs on their price tags - many were missing, or the product above the price tag was NOT the product on the tag, or 2 different but similar products by the same brand with only one price tag made shopping a bit frustrating. But as I always do, I'll have a short list of 3-5 items, and end up leaving with a cartful. ‍ For me it's easy to spend a solid hour or more there, just oooh-ing and ahhh-ing over all the exotic items, the live fish, the interesting kitchen goods (even if I can't read 99% of the labels). I always try to leave with something new to me; today, it was pickled plums (I've started making sushi and onigiri at home, and heard pickled plums were a Japanese favorite with onigiri). They're awesome, but very salty, indeed. Their produce section is large, amazing, and FRESH. Hard to choose what to get from that section, as well as their bountiful flavorings, sauces, Speaking of, I was thrilled to find that the store also has an incredible sushi selection and yes, even onigiri too (though TBT the price was a bit steeper than I hoped, and I could not find any onigiri molds in their hard goods section). I must admit that several items I looked at throughout the store seemed rather pricey - not sure if that a tariffs thing, or an import thing - so I will stick with Woodman's for my "regular" shopping, while supplementing with more of the fun Asian items I find at Pan Asian!

The wait wasn't long at all, maybe 10 minutes before our dishes were brought out to us. If it was longer, I certainly didn't notice. The seats were comfortable and we were enjoying our Jasmine green tea and conversation. My husband had the spicy heather rice noodles. The flavors were there, albeit on the salty side. His chief complaint was that the items within the dish kept separating out. Likely due to the oils. Every bite was either noodles or one of the mixed in ingredients. My dish, on the other hand, was easy to get everything in one bite. Even with chopsticks. The stir fried udon was not crispy, which I was curious about. It was still toothy and delicious with the mixed vegetables and chicken. The sauce was neither overpowering nor too abundant. Everything was coated but not drowning, if that makes sense. I'm a huge fan of udon noodles and this dish was simply comforting. The menu itself is not overwhelming but there are plenty of items to choose from. I'm definitely going back and I will try not to get the same thing, but I make no promises! Price point is moderate but worth it for the amount of food. Roughly $30 for two drinks and two entrees.
