Shanghai Noodle House - As a Shanghainese, I highly recommend this restaurant, the taste is very authentic. - Noodles Near Me - Fremont, California

We ordered a few dish, Cooked chicken in rice wine, Shanghai-style bun, napa cabbage with rice cake, 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. read more

Ordered the dry spicy pork noodles, chinese cress rice cake, and the pan fried pork buns. The dry spicy pork noodles had great noodles with a simple, savory taste, but the pork itself was a little cold unfortunately. The Chinese cress rice cakes were amazing, the aromatic flavor of the Chinese cress really elevated the rice cakes, quite addicting. The pan fried pork buns were so juicy inside, fried to perfection on the bottom, one of the best I've had! Overall good price for everything too! read more

Kind of a hole in the wall spot but we randomly came across it so decided to stop by. Ordered the Xiao long bao, pot stickers, and the spicy pork wonton soup. I have to say those were probably the best pot stickers I have ever had at a restaurant, they were crisped perfectly at the bottom, and were so flavorful we couldn't stop raving about them. The service staff were very friendly and attentive towards us and the complimentary tea and apps were a plus! read more

This is very cozy breakfast restaurant that features delights from Shanghai China. The service is straightforward and efficient. We order a few classic breakfast items like wonton, noodle soups and xiaolongbao. All are at acceptable levels. Pork kidney noodle soup is something hard to find in the U.S. but unfortunately it's thick cut and not stir fried so it lacks flavors when blending into the soup and therefore is recommended to eat as side. Xiaolongbao is tasteful but the appearance is towards the rustic end without elegant wrinkles you would expect from higher end places like Dingtaifeng. Overall it is a very down to earth restaurant that's worth frequent visit. read more

Hidden gem in Irvington area run by an elderly Chinese couple. Church friend suggested for group dinner. Considering how dining out has gone up quite a bit after pandemic, I was surprised to see the affordable prices - friend said basically hasn't changed in a while. 5% discount if pay in cash. Menu has various Shanghainese small dishes, lots soup and noodle. We ordered: Shanghai spring roll ($12) friend recommended but I thought it's light on the filling. Beef noodle soup ($16) - HUGE bowl. Enough to share with two people if medium hungry Pork wonton in clay pot- for $10, it's a deal. Wontons can use more filling (bit tiny? Free pickled cabbage, roasted peanuts and tea. Others try spicy version of beef noodle soup, pork feet and duck noodle. If we weren't stuffed, next time will want to try the XLB and shenjianbao. Parking lot is bit small in front but there is more parking in back. Drive slow after intersection or may miss it! read more

My friend recommended this place to me but in her own words, "this is a dump, you don't eat there as it has no air conditioning. We only go there to buy the frozen stuff." Well, they are located in a small plaza with not much food traffic or busy business around, but at 2pm Saturday, they were still half full for lunch. I walked pass a table of two people and they spread a feast on the table. The food looked good, authentic! The service was also friendly. The lady explained what they had in the frozen take out section and gave me their take out menu. The food prices are quite reasonable with most items in the $13 range. The most expensive item was less than $16! Onto the frozen items, my friend recommended their large wonton which was homemade with ji cai, a Shanghai local vegetable and pork. A bag of $50 for $32 in cash. They were quite big and plump! After 30 minutes of driving in the trunk they were not melting or sticking together. I cooked some at night, just need to boil. I mixed them with some soy sauce and sesame oil after scooping them out. Tasted delicious! The inside filling has the right balance of veg and meat balance. The Fremont residents who live close to this place are so lucky! read more

My friend lives in Irvington District so I meet her here for lunch on days I get my car washed down the street @ the Pacific Car wash - sort of like killing 2 birds with 1 stone since I am already in the neighborhood. My friend is the local so she does the ordering as she knows I will eat just about anything, and luckily for me, she has been on fire on what she orders. My favs have been: 3 kinds veggies noodle, drunken chicken, ox tongue in chili sauce & any of the rice cakes. This tiny restaurant packs up at lunch times so it is a hit & miss for those pressed for time. Luckily my office does not care how long I take for lunch so I have time to enjoy her good company & the good food here. We have not come on the weekends but I bet there is a good wait. read more

The fry on these chicken dishes?? And the walnut shrimp?? Fantabuloustic. Miss me with that soggy nonsense. TL;DR: Great chicken dishes. Wouldn't recommend the beef soup. Might go again, if fried chicken is in my future. Nice lady sat us, but service was very mid. You can always flag someone down, though. Food Rundown: Sichuan Chicken Tenders - 7.9/10 Can't give this an 8 because honestly? Just get the red chili chicken instead. It's basically the same thing but with a slightly lighter breading. Still crispy, still solid, but this version seems to use chicken thigh instead of breast, so it's a little chewier and less meaty. Tasty, but second place. Red Chili Chicken - 8.9/10 Pause. Get this. Eat this. Fill your pockets with this, then fill your friends' pockets so you can keep eating it on the way home. The fry is wild!! crispy, well-seasoned, and the chicken stays juicy inside. This is the one to beat. Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup - 6/10 The beef was tender and nicely cooked. But the noodles? Overcooked and mushy. Broth didn't have much depth -- just a basic beef broth. Not bad, but not worth going out of your way for. I mostly just fished out the meat. Walnut Shrimp - 7.5/10 Nice fry on these too, but the sauce dragged it down. Heavy on the mayo, light on flavor. Felt creamy and kind of one-note. It's fine, but not something I'd crave or re-order. Final Thought: If you're going, go for the chicken. Fry game is elite. read more

I'd recommend the pan fried soup dumplings/sheng jian bao and the fried pork chop with rice cakes. The sheng jian bao is one of the best I've had in the bay, and the sauce in the pork chop was yummy - soy sauce base, slightly sweet and not too salty. Their beef noodle soup was just alright. Not bad but not rich and flavorful enough. Same with their xiao long bao where the skin was too thick and the filling was not hot and soupy enough for my liking. They gave complimentary roasted peanut and tea which was nice. Service was speedy but a bit rushed. It was an in and out kind of place. read more

Absolute hidden gem. Don't let the unassuming storefront fool you -- this place delivers. Classic hole-in-the-wall energy: no frills, just solid, flavorful Shanghai comfort food.

Complimentary tea and appetizers is always a great start, and the noodle soups are great!

resteraunt is quiet small. please don't expect the whole environment is good as I-Shang. Good thing is food is served quickly. 茭白肉丝面，排骨年糕，not same as what i remembered when i ate in Shanghai. As traditional Shanghai cuisine, they use spicy soy sauce for the Fried Pork (with rice cake). Here they don't. 虾肉馄饨 is ok, fresh Shrimp inside. but soup is a bit lighter taste. and it would be better with sesame oil. read more

Husband found this place close to his dentist so we decided to give it a try. First impression coming in was it was cold as hell lol it was probably colder in there than it was outside. So, I already wasn't feeling very comfortable. The place is pretty small with a few tables, but service was pretty quick. We got the dry pork noodles, Shanghai style dumplings and another dumpling with soup. The noodles were oily and pretty bland to me. My husband needed to add extra chili oil to give it flavor. The Shanghai style dumpling was interesting, it tasted like those sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf but in a xiao long bao form. Not bad. The soup dumpling was okay too, the bottom was burnt but it made it crispy. Overall, all the food had a burnt taste to it. Could have been their style of cooking, not sure. You could also hear the cooks yawning and sighing really loudly in the kitchen lol probably won't come back here again. read more

A classic fixture of the Irvington area. I don't exactly know when this place opened, but it's been around forever. And for great reason! Even after inflation, Shanghai Noodle House remains one of the cheapest, tastiest ways for two people to get stupidly full in the Southeast Bay. It's in that cluster of shopping malls and stores around where the Cloverleaf used to be, so parking is easy and convenient. Given that the restaurant is called Noodle House, I have always ordered the noodles. I understand that they also serve Shanghai-style buns, but I haven't actually tried them in all my years of eating here because quite frankly, the noodles are massive. Absolutely massive. Enough to feed two people. It comes out very very quickly, because the noodles you get in every noodle dish is more or less the same. The base of the broth is also fairly similar - but the sauces/flavors you mix into the broth differ based on what you order. So in practice, you'll get a huge bowl of broth and noodles, far more than any one person can eat. In addition, you also get a huge amount of meat/vegetables/sauce to pour into the bowl - and there's so much, just that amount of meat/vegetables/sauce could be considered a full dish on its own. I am not sure if this is how you're actually supposed to eat it and I have no confidence in my parents ability to authentically eat Shanghainese food, but we've always just slid all of the sauces/meat/etc. into the bowl of noodles and then eat it like a noodle soup. I hope that's how you do it, or else I've been doing it wrong. Cash only - presumably one of many ways they keep this place super cheap! Cheap, plentiful, ultra-fast, and actually relatively healthy (there's oil, but a lot less than you often see in Chinese food). Highly recommended for anyone who wants a meal like that! read more

Authentic noodles from northern China. I've gotta tell ya, I'm so glad my family members all agreed to host a dinner party at Shanghai Noodles House 上海麺馆 for a real treat. There are 2 entrances. The one in the back seems more popular. I guess the rear parking lot is bigger than the one fronting Fremont Blvd. Tables and chairs were simple but it got crowded before sunset on Sunday afternoon. Just about everything we ordered were delicious. Especially the dumplings 小笼包 got more soup than anything I had ever eaten. Dry noodles were awesome too. One dish that I don't know what is on the menu but I'm Chinese is 菜饭 which is rice with miscellaneous vegetables and meat. It's almost like my parents used to cook after leftovers from the refrigerator. Of course, the ingredients were fresh and flavorful. I would recommend everyone to try it. read more

July 19, 2025: The service here was pretty nice. They served pickled vegetables, peanuts and tea while you waited for the food. However, that's the only positive thing I can say about this place. The beef noodle soup which I ordered was terrible. The beef was very stale and had a rancid odor. They gave a lot of noodles and bok choy and I thought I maybe I could get by without touching the beef, but the odor seeped into the soup so I ended up not finishing the dish and had to go somewhere else for dinner. Probably won't come here again... read more

Ordered a beef noodle soup and the shanghai pork fried buns. The beef noodle soup was pretty bad. I'm a fan of this dish but this restaurant uses really low quality meat, it wasn't tender and was tough, felt old. The soup also smelled bad and not appetizing, like it was also old or they used like gone bad oil/soup base. The shanghai pork fried buns were alright but lacked flavor. They were juicy and fried nice but the cooks don't add salt, so it tasted bland favor wise. read more

This restaurant is all about the flavor--don't expect much else, because that's their focus, and they do it well. The food is delicious and comes very close to what you'd find back in China. Of course, there are some limitations due to the ingredients available here in the U.S., but overall, it's a great spot for a taste of authentic dishes. read more

As someone originally from Shanghai, I can say their food is VERY authentic. It just felt like the food that my mom would cook, very traditional and delicious. My favorite dishes are Xiao Long Bao, Fried rice and all sorts of noodles. I always take out for my kids and they love their food too. Great place for a quick dinner/lunch. read more

I remember going to Shanghai Noodle House before the pandemic and don't remember too much about it. I went in the past few months and still don't remember too much about it except that it's small spot and not bad in terms of food and noodles. It's a small plaza so the parking lot is tiny. Pre-pandemic it was really hard to find parking. These days, not so much. Another fair option to grab some noodles. I'll have to explore the rest of their menu and provide another update another time. read more

If you haven't noticed, I have a slight...very slight addiction to noodles. Small tiny hole in the wall restaurant, easy to miss because it's on the corner where it is located in a small plaza. Parking: handful of spots, but was able to get parking pretty easy. Menu: So you'll want to see what is available that day with supply chain issues, I heard the table next to me get told a lot of items weren't avail. Spicy Beef Noodle Soup: spice on this is the numbing type of spice, so if you aren't into that flavor maybe not get this. The noodles were al dente upon arrival, but the soup was INCREDIBLY hot (you can see it in the pic) so I was reminded of being 4 when my mom would tell me to blow on my noodles. Make sure to add some vinegar too, adds to the flavor perfection. The portion is GINORMOUS so you can easily share this. Beef was VERY tender. I would consider getting this again! I think I would ask for noodles on the side (if they'll do it) so that the noodles stay al dente. By the time I got to the end the noodles were soft. With taxes, paid about $14. Staff: very nice Payment: Cards are not accepted unless you spend $25 Would def consider coming back if I'm in the area :) read more

I ate there. All noodle tasted great because these are hand made noodles! XLB ; steam pork dumplings 4.3/5 Beef noodles 4/5 Sticky rice dessert dumplings with black sesame filling 3/5, soup has no sugar! Not sweet enough. They also selling front dumplings of many kinds! I order sticky rice siu mai and shrimp dumplings with thin skin. They are 5/5!!!!! Something I noticed when I was there. Someone went there, eat and NOT pay! That guy just walk out and give them a card means nothing. Horrible customer who rip off hard working owner! If you have no money I am sure you can find free food at churches ! The owner/workers are so polite they didn't get upset, just put hands in the air and continue serve customer as usual! Talk about compassion! Please tip them! read more

First time here. I highly recommend their pan fried bun! Taste different from the XLB and lots of juice inside! The sweet sour pork rib is as delicious as expected, I always order this dish when I eat Shanghainese food! The XLB is ok, taste the same as the other restaurant I visited previously in Sunnyvale, probably from the same supplier. The sticky rice siu mai is also average, lack of flavor. And they increase their prices, what you see from their website is no longer correct. So call in to order if you want to-go read more

This review is long overdue, so the food/menu may have changed since. The food is ok, but the portions are generous and the prices are exceptionally affordable. We ordered: - Cooked Chicken in Rice Wine ($5.95) - Ok. The rice wine was overpowering - Braised Beef Noodle ($9.95) - you get a huge bowl of noodles, the soup was on the sweet side - Shanghai Style Bun ($7.95) - You get 8 XLBs per order, and ours were full of juice. Decent - Shanghai Style Sui Mai ($8.95) - these were ok, I prefer regular HK-style shumai - Four Happiness Bean Curd ($5.45) - Also known as kao fu, this braised wheat gluten dish was a bit too sweet (the wheat gluten tends to absorb all the sauce, so I actually had to press all of the sauce out or else it was too much) - Shanghai Style Special Sweet Rice ($7.45) - known as Ba Bao Fan, this sticky rice dessert has red beans, raisins, and was my favorite thing that we ate The flavors lean towards the sweet side. If you dine in, you'll fill in the little menu with the dishes you'd like and you get free peanuts and pickles! read more

I would absolutely recommend coming here to get their Dry Pork with Green Onion Noodle, Pan Fried Pork Bun, and their Shanghai Style Potstickers. The Dry Pork with Green Onion Noodle are super flavorful, especially with the green onion oil! It is definitely an oily noodle dish, but that's what makes it so good. The noodle portioning is also huge! The Pan Fried Pork Buns are so unexpectedly juicy inside. You would think otherwise because of the crispy outer dough, and the flavor is amazing. I would highly reccommend these. The Shanghai Style Potstickers are also delicious with a perfectly crisp bottom and succulent meaty filling. Some of their noodle soup dishes are a little lacking in flavor, but if you have a noodle craving you're trying to fulfill this is the spot because they definitely give you a lot of noodles. I wouldn't recommend the duck, but the lamb was pretty good. Service is ... blunt, but straightforward! It's what you can expect from a place that knows its stuff. Food came out pretty fast! When we went there was a table reserved for a staff member folding dumplings. Very homey and authentic. read more

This is possibly my favorite restaurant in Fremont! They've got large portion sizes for their noodle dishes, delicious and authentic food, friendly service, and consistent quality! I've been coming here for years, usually for takeout, as the restaurant is quite small.

Tasty comfort food at a reasonable price. We ordered: - Pork with green onion noodles: My favorite out of everything I've tried. Not a lot of meat but still good. - Sesame sauce noodles: My friend mentioned that these noodles were previously saucier. A little on the dry side but we still enjoyed them. - Pan fried pork buns: Crispy exterior and juicy filling. - Shanghai style chow mein: I took this to go for my husband. I liked the thick chewy noodles. Again, pretty light on the meat. Would order all these dishes again. Also really liked the complimentary soup, roasted peanuts and picked cabbage. Two noodle dishes and the pan fried pork buns were more than enough for three people. Really affordable at ~$13/person including tax and tip. Service was friendly. Don't know how I didn't know about Shanghai Noodle House, but so glad my friend recently introduced me to this place. Wish I had known about Shanghai Noodle House earlier, but will definitely return for future noodle cravings. read more
