Fabulous Asian Box Palo Alto helped make a lunch special for some teachers at a school I see a student at. These ladies are the hardest working teachers I know. AB is their once a week lunch celebrating the end of the week. They’ve been doing this since the early days of the pandemic when we were in person. Today, a special treat for them courtesy of Asian Box. Thank you for helping me with this.#asianboxrocks
First, we tried to order online but that was capability was not working and the website did not have pricing, which was inconvenient. Found out upon ordering in person that this place is VERY overpriced:/ I’ve never spent $12-17 per person on a small hotbox. Shrimp were tiny and my meal felt more like a snack. Also, $12 for 2 mini spring rolls????! Are you kidding me?!! We will NOT be back.
Great menu. Fast service. Flavorful sauces.Cooked Veggies need some al dente lovin’. The broccoli was gross and mushy. Just like mom made and we hated.
I go to this place a lot for their nutritious food. Usually it tastes really good but depending on what I get the meal can be a bit too small and occasionally they have too salty and dry chicken. I'd say 80% of the time they're great and 20% of the time they're sub-par for the price.
I drove across town for the poke bowl listed on the menu for this location. Not available and the cashier dismissed it saying that they never had it. I asked her to pass on my concern to her manager and she looked at me as I was stupid and wrong for not accepting the misadvertising. She told me to just down the road to another place that may have it. Again not nicely or empathetically. Not a big deal but very gen z. More like if I didn't know her menu, she wasn't about to help.
I was really excited to go in-person in ordering Asian Box since I would frequently order through doordash. I was greeted at the door but the service I was provided from the cashier was really off. As I was ordering, she didn’t seem like she wanted to be there and annoyed with me when I asked for extra lids/plastic bag. Maybe she was having a bad day? Regardless, I maintained my respect and politeness.The soy and garlic steak was super good though! I appreciated the tamarind sauce on top because it wasn’t too spicy. Thank you!
Stopped by the Palo Alto location for lunch. My son and I were very satisfied with our orders. I had the Salmon.
100% gluten free menu. The banh mi was delicious. They make their own bread. The smoked pork in the sandwich tasted delicious.
What a great spot to eat. Clean, fresh, healthy and delicious. They also do a lot of outreach and provided our wonderful caregivers free meals for our holiday party. Truly an amazing restaurant.
Always quick, tasty and inexpensive. The only place in bay that used qtips for touchscreens during pandemic.
