I can't help you for that specific area, but if you're ever in Fremont, there's a restaurant called China Chili that serves insanely delicious wonton soup. Unreal... My fav soup, period.

Yeah, just one tip tho... Get the soup to go... If you eat it there they give you a really small "cup" of soup... If you get it to go, you get a really large portion for around $6

Personally, I found China Chili underwhelming. Maybe it's because I ate in though?

Perhaps... You talking about the soup or just food in general? The soup is where it's at.

Chicken salad, chicken fried rice, Tao Tao beef, and well everything.

Edit: if you like strong drinks, there Mai tai's are killer!

I had a bunch of stuff. It had great reviews on Yelp when I looked (when I went).

There was another spot I liked for it's hot and sour soup, but I haven't been there in years and have not forgotten. It's on Fremont Blvd though, across/over by that high school.

Might sound weird but The Bay Fish and Chips has good wonton soup, and their fish and chips are pretty good too

Since this is a ramen thread now, I think Kumako Ramen in SJ and Himawari in San Mateo are my hands down favorite.
