Fusion Cafe - West Allis

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.

We visited Fusion Café because some friends said that they liked its food. It was a slow time of the day when we arrived, and the restaurant staff were quite friendly and eager to help. The inside of the restaurant was nothing fancy but looked clean. We ordered two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, a noodle dish, and some frozen dumplings to take home.* Cumin Beef (3.5/5 stars). The beef seemed to be of decent quality but was precooked (probably for use in several beef dishes), so the flavor of the sauce (which was not bad) did not get into the beef.* Stir-fried Crispy Pork (1.5/5 stars). The small pork bits were wrapped in batter and deep fried but unfortunately not very flavorful, and many of the pork bits were quite chewy with gristles. This was the most disappointing dish. * Stir-fried Eggplant (3/5 stars). The eggplant was probably steamed much earlier in the day without much flavoring, causing the dish to be rather bland.* Stir-fried Shredded Cabbage (4.5/5 stars). The cabbage was fresh and crispy, and the flavor was quite good. This was the best of the dishes we had for the meal.* Home-made Noodles with Pork and Pepper Cauce (4/5 stars). The noodles appeared to be freshly made and of high quality, and the sauce was quite tasty as well.* Napa and Prok dumplings (3.5/4 stars). The frozen dumplings were clearly better than most of those sold in grocery stores, but the fillings inside the dumplings were too heavily flavored with five-spice powders, overpowering the taste of the pork and vegetables. We had high hopes when we went to the restaurant but were disappointed at the overall quality of the dishes we ordered on the recommendation of the owner. The owner also recommended some other dishes that we didn't order. Perhaps those other dishes would have been tastier?

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.

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!

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!

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!

This place used to be the best for the homemade noodles with beef. But after new ownership took over it was just never the same. I have not been back since, but will definitely give it another shot. I think the currently taste is very particular to certain village in China. so if one isn't accustomed to that flavoring it could be a challenge. Just might be fun just to explore. Like most food, it is a acquired taste.

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.

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!

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
