The Most Flavorful Asian Fusion in Fresno

Nunus Kitchen

★★★★★ 4.7 (3)

"We got 3 chicken skewers for $20 and sticky rice for $3. Because we tapped, there is an extra fee. I think we chose the best street food because they BBQ right in front of you and constantly monitor the temperature. I liked that they did that! Definitely recommend this business Tuesdays at River Park."

Noodle Bar Asian Bistro

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (81) • $$

"Went in an hr after they had opened, we got seated quickly. This review is mainly for the noodles as I have yet to try their other food options. I went with their chicken chow mein noodles and my S/O with their Mongolia beef noodles, his came with rice as well. However you have the option to substitute the rice for more noodles at an extra charge which is exactly what he did. I loved my plate, the chicken wasn't dry and had a good seasoning but the Mongolian beef def is way better. That sauce gives it soo much more flavor and the noodles aren't soggy like many other places I been too. If you're stopping at the casino, I recommend their Mongolian beef noodles"

Boba House Express & Pho Life

★★★★☆ 4 (73)

First & Main

★★★★☆ 4.1 (238) • $$

"We went here for a family birthday and had a wonderful time! It was our first time most of us had been there. The service was great as our server was delightful, cheerful and on point! Atmosphere was very nice great for a date of some sort! The food was excellent as they have a diverse menu from ramen to steaks and even sushi! We enjoyed great cocktails, beer, and wine! You may not want to bring the family as it a little pricey! I definitely will be back to enjoy First and Main again!"

Boba Cafe

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (35) • $

"This is a nice, convenient small shop. It's family own and friendly. It's nothing extravagant. This is a good place for locals to grab something quick to eat or take home.This place sells eggrolls, spring rolls, papaya salad, khao piak, khao poun, steam bun, and dessert. There's also packaged food and cooked meat. This place has about 3 tables. It's clean. The prices are decent. $5 for ten eggrolls is a good deal to me. Flavors were fine. I'd recommend this place for locals who want some asian food without having to walk into a busy pho shop with lots of people."

Tower Tea

★★★★☆ 4.3 (164) • $$

"Great selection of fresh brewed, customized teas. When you need a break from overly sweet coffee drinks, this is the best! I always ask for recommendations from the workers when I can't decide."

Krathom Lek

★★★★☆ 3.8 (80) • $$

"I was craving Thai food and decided to give this place a shot as I'd never been, and had seen great reviews. I'm going to be honest I left this place knowing I wouldn't be back. The service is super friendly so 10/10 for that, but the food was over priced for the quality of food, and not something I'd have again. The spring roll had a piece of chicken in each one measuring the size of my pinky finger. It might as well have been a veggie spring roll. I only ate half of a spring roll I didn't care for the sauce it was served with it. The dish lacked major flavor. The first bite I took of my noodles was not bad, but as I kept eating all I could taste was oil. Will just say I left most of the food behind and ended up feeling a little sick."

New China Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.5 (155) • $

"They are cool people. Authentic Chinese food. Watching them on the woks is amazing. It's the only place I'll go to in Merced for Chinese food"

Rice Bowl

★★★★☆ 4.2 (75) • $

"First time here and 10/10We live at the Riverstone community and was on the search for a new food place and being that RICE BOWL was five minutes away we gave it a try. Environment/ Ambiance: This Chinese food restaurant is definitely a Mom and Pop vibe place, the inside definitely showed some age, but overall it is clean. We went when it first opened so we were the only customer there.Food:We ordered spicy crispy chicken (9/10) and orange chicken with bacon fried rice (8.5/10). Whenever I order spicy chicken at other restaurants, it is usually never spicy, but this place actually had a bit of kick. I would definitely order again. The pricing is very decent and you get a good amount of food. Service:The service was quick and Lilly was super friendly. We informed her it was our first time there and she was very patient and ask if we had any questions. Lilly even gave us FREE fried bananas (9/10) and a strawberry smoothie drink with crystal boba (7.5/10). This was extremely nice and welcoming of them, definitely showed they care about their customers. The fried bananas were crispy and sweet and it came as 6 pieces, I would for sure order these next time. I recommend this place especially if you live near by don't want to drive far into Fresno!! We will certainly become regulars."

Asian Paradise Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.3 (98) • $$

"Their food is excellent one of our go to spots. Only disappointment I had was our Pad se eew was sparse on the noodles. We were told at the end of the course they were out of those noodles after our dish. Basically our dish looked like half of an order compared to what other pictures show of the same dish from others. All in all this place is really great maybe should have received a half order price rather than full price."

Bowlzeye

"Really delicious bowls! I haven't had one I didn't like. Got the classic chicken teriyaki bowl last time and it was amazing. Deep, rich and sweet teriyaki flavor will leave you wanting more."

Little Fat Dumpling

★★★★☆ 3.5 (660) • $$

"I wanted to try this place for a while now and finally we did. I ordered on the phone and when I arrived the food was ready. The food was freshly made and very delicious. I ordered the broccoli with garlic. My Husband ordered beef and broccoli and a side of steam rice, and we also had an order of chicken and corn dumplings. We also ordered some spring rolls. Those are very tasty and crunchy. I have tried this in different places but this are great. My husband said that his food was very good, and that it was very hot, We couldn't eat right away but it's just the way it supposed to be. I loved the broccoli I got, It tasted so good. The broccoli was tender and juicy. My grandson Loved their dumplings. He loves the ones with chicken and corn. There are 12 in an order. They have many thing in the menu but they are known for their famous pork dumplings. Those are most people's favorite. Ambience it's very relaxing. No music in the background and they have a beautiful fountain inside!! You can hear the water coming down. I am definitely coming back. Just writing about makes my mouth watering."

Chan's Cedar Chinese Food

★★★★☆ 3.5 (143) • $

"08/15/24- My friend and I was looking for a good Chinese food place. We stumbled across Chan's Chinese Food dine in & take out. A small littplace Cedar & Shield in Fresno. This was our 1st time eating here. The service was excellent at the same time he helped the take. order too! The ambiance was friendly. I highly recommend the #6 Combination Meal. The potion of the food was generous. You can feed 2 people just ask for extra plate or 1 hungry person. It Worth my $10.98 meal. I had to take a lot home for leftovers the next days."

Little Leaf Bar

★★★★☆ 4.3 (77) • $$

"Pic fail! We started eating before I remembered to take a pic! The Thai Chicken Salad was so delicious and very filling. I love a hardy salad that leaves you satisfied. The chicken comes covered in a deep red sauce that is so yummy. When mixed the salad had plenty of delicious flavor with each bite. I would absolutely order it again. My friend ordered some sliders. They come with two and she devoured them. She kept saying how delicious they were. The Mayo looking sauce on the side was so flavorful and she requested more. She's also used the sauce that came with our egg rolls on her sliders too. That sauce was delicious too! I did order the Mediterranean Egg Rolls. I personally didn't care for them because of the lamb. I believe they use bits of lamb shank which I don't really care for, it's too gamey for me. But if you love lamb shank you'll love this dish too. They were cooked perfectly and the dipping sauce was SO good! I have to come back a try the drinks. The service was awesome, food great, atmosphere was cozy and relaxing. The place is very clean and I can't wait to go back!"

Xiong Pho N Seafood

★★★★☆ 3.9 (522) • $$

"Ok. This is the honest truth about it. This place is hole in the wall. I would NEVER give this place a 4 star BUT the kitchen is serious and that's where they invest the talent. It has good food and that's what you'll get. Leave the rest of your expectations at the door and you'll have a nice evening. No crying over not being greeted at the door, not having the greatest waitress of all time and the greatest atmosphere. I mean, look at the pictures! That's it. 4 stars because of amazingly delicious food folks! If the service was 4 stars service it would have been 5. I wanted to give them five stars so bad but I just couldn't. And last but not least, the pepper oil is hot! If you mess with it don't use over a tsp or so. You've been warned!"

88 Bao Bao

★★★★☆ 4.1 (85)

"A welcome addition to Merced but a little low on the quality. You can definitely tell it's a chain restaurant... the ramen is more of a light soup and not anything close to a rich ramen flavor and the pork was super chewy and low on flavor. The soup dumplings were ok but the skin was way too thick for a top notch xlb. The veggie chow mein was tasty but it's pretty hard to screw that up Cleaning products in the dining area and a shoddy self serve "to go box" area that let you know you are definitely still dining in Merced Service was very friendly. Given all this I will still return and try some more stuff"

The Lincoln Pub & Grub

★★★★☆ 4.1 (176) • $$

"I came here for the grub, but stayed for the pub and penny topped bar.Not my favorite type of bar food, but it was still pretty good. I loved the five dollar cocktails as their late night happy hour option. Who doesn't like $5 you call its!This place is definitely a dive bar, but it was so bright in here. I felt like I was in homeroom back in high school. Just dim the lights by 10 maybe 15%. We ordered curry sauced boneless wings, deep-fried green beans, and sautéed mushrooms. The food was OK, but I really loved the curry sauce on top of the boneless wings. It was flavorful and spicy. The deep fried green beans were delicious but the mushrooms were a miss for me. The service was fast and friendly. Shout out to Tomei! I could see myself coming back here, but probably just to drink. Thanks Prez!"

Healthy Japan

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (101) • $$

"Great for the price and convenience. We order take out here 2X a month. Don't forget the Gyoza... it's delicious.Dynamite roll is great too."

Big Bang Grill

★★★★★ 4.5 (81) • $$

"This is a total hole in the wall type of restaurant. But the food is absolutely amazing. My husband got the fried chicken and was in love with it.Service leaves a little bit to be desired, and the restaurant doesn't feel incredibly clean. However, for takeout I think it's awesome."

Asian Style Kitchen

★★★★★ 4.8 (84) • $$

"I had to try it! Got the Pork Riblet and the Chow mein! 5/5 ALL AROUND. The workers in the food truck are all so sweet!! Please get the house chili sauce bc it's fireeeee. It was exactly what I needed. *dramatic tear* Wait wasn't long so a quick and easy lunch to grab togo!"

B & K Asian Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4 (287) • $$

"I came here on a ladies lunch date. We walked in around 1:00 pm on a Friday. Their dining area is a decent size for a smaller scale restaurant. They also had upgraded their restroom so now there's a separate male and female restroom. For food, I ordered the Mee Ka Tee while the other ladies ordered Lao fried rice with sour pickled sausages, papaya salad, Tom yum shrimp soup, and Num Yua Beef salad. Everything was delicious! But the top winning savory dishes are the papaya salad, Num Yua Beef Salad, and Lao fried rice with sour pickles sausages. The service was great, too. The waitress was a middle aged lady and she checked on us after taking our orders. She also kindly refilled our water more than three times as we ended up staying there for a couple of hours even after finishing our food."

Amazing Asian Kitchen

★★★★☆ 3.5 (55)

"What a great place. Amazing food and the lady is so nice. We have been here a few times and have tried numerous dishes and all of them are delicious."

Teriyaki Madness

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (13)

"Yall I got the privilege to try this place before it officially opens on Friday and oh my goodness this place is going to be a new Visalia favorite! I got the spicy chicken teriyaki bowl with white rice and I wish I had a pic to show you but I devoured it the moment it was in my hands. The meat was juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned, the sauce was sweet and salty, a great addition to the white rice and sautéed veggies. Service was excellent and efficient. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu !!!"

Ichiban

★★★★☆ 3.9 (139) • $

"Terrific, totally unassuming, and under the radar Japanese quick serve that hits a lot of notes perfectly. Teriyaki bowls are the bread and butter here, but don't sleep on their sushi or poke bowls. The rice is perfectly balanced and the rolls are as good as any of the top places in town, albeit at a better price. Extra credit for being such a kindly, stable neighborhood fixture for decades. Their name says it all."

Pho'dera

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (309) • $$

"We ordered the special pho & chicken pho, along with a side of pork wontons.The portions were a decent size but flavor wise I think it was a miss unfortunately. The broth itself was okay but had a strong ginger taste, to the point where AFTER I seasoned your broth it still left a strong ginger taste & that's all you tasted.I was really excited being that this was the only pho shop in Madera and bringing in a different variety to the city. But this was a no for me, it would be better to do it yourself at home or drive into Fresno for it."

Rice N Spice Thai Street Food Truck

★★★★☆ 3.8 (18) • $$

"There are several reasons why I am continuously enticed to keep coming back to this food truck when I am in the area every Sunday. Chief among them is their menu, which are all authentic and hard-to-find dishes you will not get at any local Thai restaurant. The Pad Thai and Pad Kra Pow (grounded meat with Thai basil) are easily the most popular dishes, but I have also had the chance to try other dishes like Khao Kha Mu (braised pork) and Khao Man Gai (boiled chicken with ginger garlic rice). The Khao Man Gai is essentially a Thai interpretation of the Chinese dish, Hainan Chicken Rice. None of the dishes have truly impressed me so far but I appreciate they have not been very oily and overly seasoned. The dishes are a healthier, cleaner-tasting version of some of the dishes you can expect at most local dine-in restaurants.I have also not tried any of the fried and skewed meat dishes here that are usually my "cup of tea" and have deeper flavor profiles.The plates are priced appropriately for a food truck, where you will get just enough for a quick and satisfying meal.Very friendly service. You will always be greeted with a warm smile and they will make helpful suggestions on what to try if you are being indecisive. The plates come within 5 to 8 minutes while made-to-order. On rainy or windy days, they will bring your order to your car as soon as it is prepared.You will find them at the corner of E. Shepard Avenue and N. Willow Avenue on Thursdays to Sundays, 11 AM to 7 PM come rain or shine."

Surla's

★★★★☆ 4 (443) • $$

"Off the beaten path, Surla's is often forgotten. The restaurant is trying to change that with its new Prefix 30 menu on Thursdays. Three delicious courses for $30. What a deal! Food is top-notch quality, and the service is on point. I've taken advantage of this special both in the restaurant and to go. Both options were very good. The wine selection is varied and lots of excellent choices are available.Go back to an old favorite, or try something new, this restaurant won't disappoint."

Teriyaki Don

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (197) • $$

"Got the beef Japanese curry over rice and salmon roll.Mild/medium spice, seasoned well and has large portions.The poured it all over the rice so next time I'm going to ask to have the rice on the side so it doesn't get mushy from sitting in the sauce"

Pen Ta Zapp

★★★★★ 4.6 (12) • $$

"Reasonably priced, generous portions and above all it tastes like mom's coming. Service was good but a bit slow. But not worth deducting a start over."

Zen Asian Diner

★★★★☆ 3.7 (168) • $$

"It's my first time coming to this place, and I was not disappointed. I wanted a lil snack so I got the pan fried egg foo young, it came with 3 for $10.95 and they did NOT skip out on the sauce! Very tasty dish! The service was great too I will be coming back to try out the rest of the menu!"

Asian BBQ & Pho

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (220) • $$

"Just went back with my & this restaurant Hits the spot EVERY TIME!!Thai Tea is Great, but NO half & Half next time i love the strength of the tea!"
