    Love their wonton soup here, the broth has a good flavor and the wontons are perfect textured and taste. This is my go to wonton soup place when Im craving something delicious and comforting . Inside is pretty spacious but outdated, I only have ordered for take out. Cashiers are nice. Theres lots of parking but just in a busy area. Prices are on the higher side but

    Crispy Seafood noodles and Combination Chow fun

    We decided to try King Noodle at the Fremont Hub for lunch today. When you first arrive, a lady seats you. She wasn't the friendliest, but we were seated right away, which was nice. The restaurant appeared clean, and each table was already set up with utensils, including forks and chopsticks, along with a variety of sauces and a jar of jalapeños. Our waiter was very nice and attentive. When our food arrived, I was surprised by the portion size. I ordered the Combination Crispy Seafood Noodles, and the plate was large enough that it could easily be shared. The crispy seafood noodles were really good. I would have liked a little more flavor, but it was still very tasty and satisfying. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I would definitely go back and try something else on the menu.

    3. Combination Wonton Rice Stick Soup w/hofun noodle
    Cindy N.

    Nice mom & pop shop. Aunty is in the front and uncle takes the orders, runs the tables. Open and adequate seating. Service was good. Food was ok, but a little expensive in my opinion. Egg rolls is clearly home made: its a combination of Vietnamese style & Chinese imperial: ground pork and cabbage. Well seasoned and it somehow works. Ordered the Hu Tieu Wonton (combination Wonton Ho Fun noodle) broth was slightly underseasoned but still good. Chè 3 màu (3 bean dessert) left much to be desired. Overall not bad, I'd come back to try something else.

    Average Bay Area pricing but big portions, both dish's tastes authentic and flavorful

    This place is going downhill. It used to be our go to for a quick meal. Now it looks like a dumpster. The food has no taste. The bathroom didn't have any toilet paper.

    Combo #9, fried taro, fried rice
    Justine T.

    Whenever I'm in Fremont especially if I'm shopping at the hub--this is my go-to spot. I always order the combination wonton noodle soup and fried taro flour cake while my husband always gets the fried rice and fried chicken. Food is always good, comforting, and hits the spot every time. Service is fast and there's plenty of booths to sit at. It's a no frills type of restaurant and food is overall decent, affordable, and fulfilling.

    9. Combination Wonton Noodle Soup
    Danielle L.

    The quality has stayed the same for years and the prices haven't changed too much. They have so many delicious dishes but I would suggest inviting multiple people so you can eat "family style" and try a little bit of everything. The restaurant is a bit older and it hasn't been renovated but it's not too bad.

    #3 3. Combination Wonton Rice Stick Soup
    Desiree B.

    This is my favorite noodle soup spot in the East Bay/Tri City area. The broth is the best tasting and the amount and variety of food in the combination soups are ligit! I am pretty particular when it comes to Asian food especially Chinese and this place always hits the spot. I use to go to Tung Kee more when I lived closer to the South Bay and sometimes when I work in that area, I do visit still but I think I like king noodle better. In terms of service, you get what you get, don't expect to be able to ask a bunch of questions about the food or ask for recommendations and don't take forever to order. Keep in mind, this is a truly Asian-owned, Asian and Latinx frequented establishment meaning you go for the food not for the service. So if you are squeamish about these kind of establishments then it's better, you don't go. Also, the pricing has changed over the years to stay competitive and that has been annoying, but also understandable. Oh and good luck trying to order over the phone because the phone line is usually busy and or nobody answers so again if you love the food here you have to make quite a bit of accommodations to get what you want- but to me it's worth it!

    #82. Beef Stew Wonton Noodle Soup
    Edwin C.

    Food: 3.6 Service: 3.2 fast & efficient We've been coming here for years, but never wrote review. So here it goes; an old school eatery where you see the service counter and and brunch of tables that reminds me of my school desk with a lift top (yup showing my age again) so you know it's a no frills no thrills type of restaurant. But is the food good = YES! The restaurant has the majority of menu items by pictures so if you eat with your eyes then you'll have problems choosing what to eat. But since we've eaten here we order our go to: #23 crispy noodle combination (aka: bird's nest), fried chicken wings, and #82 spicy beef stew with wonton & egg noodle. Food comes out fast and portions can be easily shared (just ask for an extra bowl or plate). As for the taste, the food is seasoned right and sauces are on the table if you want more heat to your liking. Service is simple: order, serve, then pay at the counter (by table number); but this is nothing new with most noodle places. But if you need anything literally just raise your hand like back in school and someone comes to help you. Like I said old school: NO frills NO thrills just good food and fast efficient service that we'll continue to support!

    18. Wonton Soup
    Darin T.

    We went to King Noodle in Fremont today, and overall, it was solid. It's essentially identical to New Tung Kee Noodle House in San Jose--the broth, the menu, everything--so if you like New Tung Kee (which we do) then this is a great option. That said the ambiance could use some work. It feels very much like a soup kitchen or cafeteria, with long communal tables and no dividers between groups, which can be a little awkward. There's also no music playing so the atmosphere is pretty bare-bones. One small thing I found odd was that they don't offer basil with there soups. Most similar restaurants do, and they clearly have basil in other dishes, so it's not that they don't have it--it's just not provided as a standard garnish. However, they do offer pork skins, bean sprouts and pickled jalapeños at the table. The jalapeños aren't spicy, but they add a nice crunch and freshness. If you haven't been to New Tung Kee in the South Bay just expect a very decent bowl of soup--that's what their known for. Nothing too fancy, but it gets the job done if your craving wonton soup or something similar with shrimp and other meats. It's inexpensive which is a plus. Customer service was fine--friendly, but there was a bit of a language barrier that made communication slightly tricky at times. Overall, if you're in the area and in the mood for a comforting no-frills bowl of noodle soup King Noodle is worth checking out.

    Taro cake
    Louis L.

    I and my wife are crazy about Flour Cake fried at a certain Chinese VN restaurants and we found this King Noodle in Fremont, not to far from our home. Every time we went shopping at Target or Trader Joes, we always stopped by to get our Fried Flour Cake fix LOL. This restaurant's been here quite a long time, it's in a big shopping center with plenty of parking spaces. It's catered to inexpensive Chinese/VN dishes for mostly international clienteles. The foods are quite good but not authentic in any means. Anyone would find it tasty and easy to eat. Our kids used to like these wonton noodle soup when they're young, but now they developed more mature tastes, we don't come here anymore except the 2 of us for flour cake. The price is quite reasonable, $14 a plate, there are a few flour cakes with different ingredients, we only like the plain original flour cake and my wife the taro cake with peanuts embedded in it. The trick is to ask for extra crispy, which means they fried a little longer to make the edge crispy as we like. The sauce is quite good with the flour cakes. For some reasons, not many restaurants like this exist that have great fried flour cakes, but as long as this one is here, we will be coming back for this wonderful Fried Flour Cake. There's another one that is good too, in North Valley, SJ. The service here is efficient, quite fast but very business like. Whatever that means LOL. You'll get the point when you come here.

    I've been at TK Noodle in the South Bay Area for 31 years. It's been around forever. But this is it's lesser known, variant, or direct competitor. Just some subtle differences, but look almost identical. Can't have one, without the other. I felt like doing some more Noodles today. Today, I'm 5 miles away from the Tesla Factory, I've seen this Noodle Shop more than a few times going down Argonaut Way. And today, is the day, I check-it-out. I'm here at the King Noodle this Noon. Where everything is about Noodles. I went with the Mì Bò Kho or Beef Stew with Egg Noodle Soup, an order of Chicken Wings, and my Cup of Iced Milk Tea this time. The other last few times I had the Hủ tiếu Beef Stew, and now today I'm having the fresh Egg Noodles Beef Stew, another Classic. I can see why they're called the King Noodle. And the Chicken Wings, were out of this World, it was extra Crunchy. There's some good and really hardworking people here as well, only thing is they could be somewhat better at taking orders. Other than that, everything was really good. I was thinking this was going to be a 3.7-4.3 stars, I was thinking of giving this a 4.0-4.3 stars, I want to give this a 4.1/4.2 stars, but I'm also going to give this 4.2/4.3 stars out of 5 stars. It was some good Noodles.

    #3 with half egg noodle and half ho fun
    Billy L.

    I used to go to New Tung Kee, aka TK Noodles in Milpitas. After moving to the East Bay I was looking for something similar. After looking around on Yelp, I was surprised to find a place with the same menu as New Tung Kee. The reviews for this place aren't great, and I can see why. When you walk in, it's dead silent, with no music in the background. The seating layout is cafeteria style and you share utensils and condiments with the table beside you. One of the walls with seating is used as storage for many things out in the open for customers to see. On the walls, they have blue light bug zappers. That makes me think they have some fly issue in the restaurant. It's a weird ambiance where I feel like I'm eating in a soup kitchen. I ordered #3 with half ho fun noodles and half egg noodles for the food. The bowl has pork wontons, chicken, pork slices, prawns, and beef balls. What they are missing is ground pork, which New Tung Kee includes. I also asked for extra pork skin/pork rinds. Their pork skin here does not hold its crispiness in the broth. One thing this place is better at than New Tung Kee is the broth. The broth here is more flavorful. Service here is lacking and there's a language barrier. I asked for a side of bean sprouts when I placed my order, and the person who brought out the soup didn't bring any sprouts. He had to get another person to communicate with me. If I crave this style of soup, I would rather go to Thanh Ky in Oakland, which is a million times better in every way.

    This was the vegetarian pad Thai? Just no flavor  at all? And noodles very dry

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!

    Was going to another noodle place but it seems it was no longer there so we decided come here to…read moresince it is in the same plaza. This is not our first time here. There seems to have some menu change since the last time we came. We ordered 2 dry noodles and a cold spicy pig ears appetizer. The pig ears were piled up with no fillers - something hard to find these days. You can select the type of noodles so I picked the widest while my husband picked the middle one. I love the el dente texture of the noodles giving it a bit of chew. My braised pork belly dry noodles was not dry... very watery which was not to my liking. I want my dry noodles with as little gravy as possible. The flavor was light despite all the gravy, but the veggies and one egg made it up. The house special dry noodles had just the right amount of gravy for taste but not enough ingredients. I was wondering why the restaurant is called One Piece... I guess the entire bowl of noodles is one piece noodle as it was hard to eat as all the noodles are tangled. No complaints here just need to be careful with the splashes on your shirt. Overall the food was good, service was decent as we were offered actual menu instead of only using QR code to order. The place was not small with plenty of table. A bit noise as with all Chinese restaurants.

    I found myself in Fremont recently and, in classic Angela fashion, had a violent craving for noodle…read moresoup. I actually have one of Ox 9's other locations bookmarked but when I found out there was a branch in Fremont, I detoured to try them out. I came on a weekend for early lunch, and the restaurant was quite empty and spacious. There is a window that allows you to see where the sausage (noodles) get made (pulled). Located in a strip mall, there is ample parking. Two friendly women told me to sit wherever and order via QR code. I deliberated for a hilariously long time over the width of my noodles but ultimately decided on the beef and pickled veggie noodle soup with the thin flat noodles, as well as an order of the lamb skewers. The food came out reasonably fast, given that the noodles are hand-pulled, and the portions were HUGE. The lamb skewers were highly rated online and I can see why. They are perfectly spiced and so flavorful, without being so coated that the texture changes, and they have the PERFECT fat to lean ratio so they were unbelievably succulent, but not cloying. An order is 3 decent-sized skewers and I absolutely housed those. Next I was served a huge bowl of steaming, fresh noodles. The small flat noodle was the perfect size for me, as they were already quite wide. I was not looking to chew through literal dough sheets so I am glad I didn't opt for any wider noodle size. The texture of the noodles was sublime, so QQ so springy, you can really tell that they are hand-pulled. The slight imperfections and difference in thickness between noodles gave each bite a unique chew that was so addicting. I wish the physical dimensions of the bowl were a bit bigger because the noodles were a bit tangled and clumpy and I would have liked a bit more room to mix and spread them out. The beef noodle soup broth was just ok, I think the flavor could have been a bit deeper and stronger, but I could appreciate a savory beefy flavor. The pairing of pickled vegetables and tender beef is a classic though, and I do appreciate the clean, soothing taste. There is chili oil, soy sauce, and vinegar at every table so I added a bit more salt and spice to mine. Portions were HUGE and I was already getting full from the lamb skewers, so I took a good amount home. I packed the noodles and soup separately, and the superior gluten formation of fresh noodles held up to a day in the fridge, and were still quite tasty when reheated on stovetop. I loved this place and would absolutely return to try the other noodle dishes and noodle dimensions, as well as get more of their fabulous skewers.

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.

    This is my first time at Bing's and it seems like from reviews, there's been a change in ownership…read moreand quality of food. I am no OG attendee but...I personally thought their dumplings were AMAZING! I was craving xiao long baos so bad. Their XLB was the best I've had in the bay--when I bit into the skin, it was a mouthful of delicious broth. Many other XLB spots could barely produce as much broth as Bing's. The skin was also perfectly QQ. We also ordered their classic pork and cabbage dumplings. Wow. So flavorful and clean. They don't skimp on the meat portions here, that's for sure. Lastly, we got their braised beef noodle soup. Noodles were consistent and QQ, though the broth was a little bland. Albeit, this is a dumpling spot after all! Service was great--food came out super fast and water was always refilled. Perhaps the establishment has taken in the feedback already bc tbh I am not seeing what the negative reviews were talking about hahaha! Perfect mom and pop vibes all around! I WILL BE COMING BACK

    We were early fans of Bing's, and we rooted for them even harder in 2020 when so many local small…read morebusinesses were struggling through the pandemic. On one particular takeout run, when everything was still uncertain, I remember talking to the owner as he worked his way through a tall stack of paperwork trying to apply for PPP. He shared with me his very real fear of losing his business. We remained loyal to this little local noodle shop for a simple reason--the food was phenomenal. We were so happy to see Bing's recover and thrive after COVID, and genuinely sad when we saw that they had closed a few months ago. So when we recently noticed that Bing's had reopened under new management, we were thrilled and curious to give it a try. We stopped by tonight to see how the new team was doing. We ordered the XLB, Spicy Wontons, Cucumber, and Tofu Skin appetizers, followed by the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup and Spicy Sour Noodle Soup. There were definitely some bright spots. The XLB had a great skin-to-filling ratio, and the wontons had a really nice chew--though a little more roasted spice and sauce would have made them an even bigger winner for us. The Tofu Skin appetizer was served warm and was very enjoyable; some roasted peanuts for a little extra crunch and texture would have taken it up another notch. The noodle dishes, however, were noticeably different from what we remembered and seemed to be based on new recipes. The Spicy Sour Noodle Soup leaned more toward the sweet side. We wondered if that might have come from the chopped carrots instead of the potatoes we remembered. We also would have loved more broth and, especially, more heat. The Spicy Beef Noodle Soup was also missing some of that deep, rich, "beefy" flavor we remembered from the old broth. There was a slight hint of what tasted like a prepared stock, though we obviously can't say for sure. We were also hoping for that wonderful "QQ" chew from the handmade noodles, but ours were a little softer than expected--perhaps just slightly overcooked that night. That said, the new owners were extremely nice, welcoming, and attentive, and we will definitely give them another shot. We may just wait a little while to let the new team settle in and find their groove. Bing's had something of a cult following and, in our opinion, the previous team set a very high bar. Taking over a place with that kind of history and loyal following can't be easy. We're rooting for the new owners and look forward to seeing them find their stride--and hopefully their own place in the hearts (and stomachs ) of the Fremont community.
