Taiwanese Restaurants in Arcadia, CA

“The staff are nice & the food is good.“

“The dumplings are so good!!“

“Xinbale is a fast-food restaurant serving authentic Taiwanese cuisine. It offers a wide variety of snacks; generally speaking, the flavors tend to be on the sweeter side. If you are not fond of sweet tastes, be sure to avoid ordering the Stir-fried Tomatoes with Eggs. Even on weekdays, the restaurant is bustling with diners. They also offer an extensive selection of beverages, and you can enjoy a dessert after your meal.“

“Very friendly and quick service. I think it is the best Taiwanese restaurant in Arcadia. The flavor was very good and tasty. It was recommended to me by my Taiwanese friend. So I would recommend this restaurant for everyone. Price is excellent. You can order for takeout.“

“We stopped by to check out their new menu after shopping at the Santa Anita mall, which is just down the street.

The Crispy Skin Roasted Duck Breast was juicy and tender. It was different than what I expected, but in a good way! Another highlight was the braised beef wide noodle soup. The pot was huge and could fill 6-7 small bowls. Definitely worth ordering if you're with a large party.

The absolute star of the night was the Truffle Earl Grey Basque Cheesecake. The earthy truffle flavor paired well with the fragrant Earl Grey notes. So unique!

Beyond the food, the service was excellent throughout the meal. The staff was attentive and always came to refill my water.

I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.“

“I was trying to take the godfather to the Vietnam kitchen down the street but they were closing up at 8:00 (!) and they told us that we could only get to go. Well. We wanted to talk and eat at a table. So we had both noticed this place on the way to VK . A very low-key restaurant with some high-grade beef noodle soup. Very tasty and there's a whole homemade feeling about the place which is very charming to me. A solid cucumber appetizer, the Szechuan vegetables were weirdly a little bland, or at least not as spicy or a sour as I was expecting. However, the Price is Right, the service is outstanding with it being what feels like a true mom-and-pop joint ( Bobby is the chef, and I suspect he's the pop, and looks much younger than his age), and I really like the fact that the menu was very simple. Even so I was tempted by other things on the menu, including the chicken curry, but they were out of chicken so I'll have to come back for that. Still I went with a specialty and I've been going to a lot of beef noodle soup places so I feel pretty strongly to judge that the broth was excellent. The vegetables were fresh and the meat was very good, if not as much as I wanted there to be. Overall the experience was outstanding and they were extremely hospitable, especially when we paid at 845 and I asked if they closed at 9:00 and they told us. They had closed 45 minutes earlier yet had hung around and gave no indication that we were to do anything, but enjoy our food. Very genteel and civilized. Thank you!“

“Love the mango snow. Try it you won't be disappointed.“

“Great boba chain with consistent drink quality. I visited the store near Lunar new year time and was given red envelopes with mu purchase. I went to pick up my fav drinks with them, which are mango pomelo sago and winter melon milk tea with grass jelly!“

“My cousin specifically likes their $9.99/lb Hog foot (to go cold/warm up at home), and $13+ Taiwanese Bento boxes to-go or dine there. Small shop, not good foe big parties, no restroom. I was told the to-go drinks could be very sweet, so not for me. Hole in the wall, Taiwanese joint. Hog/Pork Feet cold/to-go is a must here!!! Tks to my cousin on this find.

My cousin's fav bento box is $14 Beef Shank and Chicken, and her SO favorite is $14 Salty Duck. She mentioned that Smoked Duck is heard to be good too. She ordered me 2lbs of the Hog Foot dish and it was delicious! It come with sauce, ginger and cilantro which I didn't need but the SO enjoyed. It's a good snack or side to have around.

They sell other side dishes, and frozen dumplings to goodies. Looking forward to coming back to try their bento box there.“

“it was good,......................“

“I usually don’t write reviews for boba shops, but my experience at AU 79 in Arcadia today was so exceptional that I had to stop and write one.

I visited yesterday and ordered the Peach Green Tea — and honestly, it was divine. The peach flavor was perfectly balanced with a strong, clean green tea base. These days, so many boba shops rely on artificial flavors and you can barely taste the tea, but yesterday’s drink was perfection. It impressed me so much that I went back today just to get it again.

Today’s drink, however, tasted very different — more floral and missing that strong green tea note I loved. I wasn’t sure if it was the same drink, so I asked the staff. The store manager was incredibly kind and immediately offered to remake it. Even though the second cup still wasn’t quite right, I appreciated the effort and decided to enjoy it on the patio.

About ten minutes later, the manager came outside with another freshly made cup, asking if we could try it to see if it matched what we were expecting. And this time — it was spot on. Exactly like yesterday’s perfect version.

I was honestly blown away by his dedication. He didn’t have to go that far, but he cared enough to keep trying until it was right. That’s the kind of customer service that stays with you.

Yes, they could work on consistency, but the warm, welcoming attitude and genuine desire to make things right will absolutely keep me coming back.“

“great food, healthy options, good service“

“This place seriously deserves Michelin-star level recognition ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We finally found the most original and authentic taste of 大合卤味— a flavor we’ve missed and thought about consistently for so many years. Every dish was packed with rich, comforting flavors and that authentic traditional homemade feeling that is so hard to find nowadays.

The beef noodle soup was absolutely AMAZING — the broth was deep, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice and aroma. The beef was unbelievably tender, juicy, and practically melted in the mouth. One of the best beef noodle soups I’ve had in a very long time.

The signature dish is an absolute MUST-ORDER for every table! Once you try it, you’ll understand why everyone keeps coming back. The 卤味 dishes were also outstanding — packed with flavor, perfectly marinated, and incredibly addictive. You can truly taste the care and quality in every bite.

What shocked us even more was the price — very affordable, yet the quality and flavors honestly felt Michelin-star level. It’s rare to find a place that delivers this level of authentic Taiwanese comfort food at such a reasonable price.

Honestly, every dish we ordered was so yummy and beautifully prepared. This restaurant feels like a hidden gem with Michelin-level flavors and presentation. Definitely coming back again and highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Taiwanese comfort food! 😍🍜“

“Very delicious Love their Lamb“

“Friendly service and delicious food. I had har gow and shu mai and shrimp+pork+chive dumplings that I ate at their table and I brought leftovers and other food home as well. Haven't tried it yet it's waiting for dinner. The place is clean, there's easy parking, and the service was friendly and attentive. There's no picture of the har gow because I inhaled it. I was here at 3:00 in the afternoon so I was the only customer for the first half hour.“

“Nothing compares to the taste. I love the sukiyaki broth which I haven’t found in Las Vegas where i live… nice place, clean and polite and helpful servers. Food is awesome… the best“

“So glad I found this place in the neighborhood. It's my go-to spot for "I don't want to cook tonight." They offer a good mixture of smaller bites (popcorn chicken, fish balls, fried rice cakes...get these, they're so delicious), and bigger bites (rice bowls with your choice of meat, comes with tea egg, and pickled veggies). There's also a handful of boba tea type drinks, and shaved ice bowls.“

“The restaurant was closed for a period of time and appears to have done some partial remodeling. It looks much better now and no longer feels old or run-down like it used to. The dining environment has improved, which makes the overall experience more pleasant. Other than that, everything else seems about the same.“

“口味道地 但略偏鹹 麻辣臭豆腐很推“

“Wasn't pleased with my shaved ice and Pineapple slush. They were out of ingredients and the shaved ice was more like crushed ice. Expensive! Won't be coming back!“
