Fairwood Cafe - Newark

Fairwood reminds me of home (New York City) their menu is Contemporary Hong Kong style including Russian Borscht lol Open late and convenient off the Dumbarton for the rides home.. A true Chinese place even the wall menus are in Chinese.. (too bad I'm American born, I can't read them).. Highly recommend them if you're out late on the East bay and hankering for real food not the late night fast food..

I love the food at this place. The baled pork chop and chicken is my favorite with the white sauce. Idk how they make but they definitely beed a place like this in Vegas, my home home.

Okay, we were lowkey sussed out by seeing an Asian restaurant serving so late at night but decided to try it since it couldn’t be worse than our other options of In N Out or McD’s at 11PM. But to our pleasant surprise, this place was pretty great! I was impressed with how extensive their menu is. Not only do they serve a multitude of Asian/Chinese dishes, but they also offer breakfast dishes like crepes, eggs, as well as fries and nuggets! We visited on a late Tuesday night and the restaurant was pretty busy so we took that as a good sign. The portions were huge for such decent pricing. We got the beef chow fun (amazing! , veggie crunchy stir fried noodles, and black pepper steak dishes. We also got the mango milkshake which was good but extremely sweet. We didn’t have to wait very long for our food to come out at all. HOWEVER : I will note that one of us ordered the beef ramen and got very very ill shortly after (intense sweating and nausea … definitely steer clear of this dish Otherwise, the rest of us had a great experience and were pleasantly surprised. Hopefully this business continues to make great food available late night all while keeping decent prices!

Authentic Hong Kong style cafe. Came in after 10pm for late snack. It’s worth a visit. Cash only.

I had their baked pork chop and it was delicious and it came with a tomato vegetable soup that was flavorful. Service was great! They only accept cash or Venmo for payment.
