About General Pot

Located at 43767 Boscell Rd, Fremont, CA 94538, General Pot operates as a chinese restaurant serving Fremont in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Fremont; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in California are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. Typical hours are 11 am–3 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (510) 657-8188. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.

Customers rate it 4.3 out of 5 on Google across 226 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded chinese restaurants in Fremont.

Fremont is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Fremont follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

This was my first time here, and I came for the grilled fish, but it was really disappointing. I’m not sure what time the fish was cooked, but the inside was still cold and not fully heated. Definitely not what I expected-the waiter said it was fresh catfish, but at a hefty price of $59, it turned out tough and tasteless. It also came with very few side dishes .One can definitely find much better options at nearby restaurants, where similar dishes usually cost between $32.99

It was my first time and I had a good hype for this place from my Asian friends. This place was packed on a weekend and I heard they are busy most weekends. The place is cozy and we had to wait 15 mins to get a table. Their service is friendly and quick. We got the bbq fish which is this location famous for. I have to say I was surprised by the size and quantity. It was a big fish and good for 3 to 4 people. Though the fish was big it was mostly bones and their broth was spicy and sour with ample of veggies. We got Jasmine rice to go with it and it was good. The fish was fresh and the broth was soothing. We also got complimentary Ube dessert. Overall had a nice time and will definitely come back to try out their other dishes.

We decided to give this place a try since we’ve enjoyed several great Sichuan restaurants nearby. We ordered the grilled fish, fried towel gourd, and pig ears in chili oil. The pig ears were decent, but the towel gourd tasted undercooked and lacked flavor. Our biggest disappointment was the grilled fish — the waiter said it was fresh catfish, but at a hefty price of $55.99, it turned out tough and tasteless. It also came with very few side dishes as you can see from the photos. One can definitely find much better options at nearby restaurants, where similar dishes usually cost between $32.99 and $42.99. With this experience, we’ve decided to cross this place off our future dining list.

Huge menu but I'm here to rave about their spicy dry pot. It's a huge portion to be shared family style. The combination of flavor and ingredient is incredible, haven't had anything as good for quite awhile. Personally I highly recommend the spicy dry pot with intestine. You can select spicy level. Plenty of parking in the lot. 5% off if you pay cash. Typical chinese restaurant, zero ambiance and mediocre service, but that's how you know it's authentic. Expect to pay 25-30 per person.

Food: 5/5 DELICIOUS! Got the medium spicy grilled fish, definitely SPICYYY. Super tasty, fish super fish. The catfish is killed right before we eat so you know it’s quality fish! Also got the salt pepper fried tofu, yummy as well! Wish the onion was more cooked thoroughly. Overall definitely recommend! Service: 5/5 fast on ordering, bringing tea to table, providing additional napkins/utensils when needed Ambiance: 4/5 on the dim side. The seats are bit narrow and small. Nice fish tank when first walk in though! Small cozy restaurant.
