Taiwanese Restaurants near Azusa, CA

“Great place, great staff members and great food. 👍“

“The dumplings are so good!!“

“I been coming here for a year now happy to see dine in is open again, amazing beef noodle soup and I yummy fruit tea. Very worth the price and family own business that has amazing customer service 10/10“

“My five star rating is for the House Special Dragon Hair, also known as Dragon Whiskers, Dragon Beard, or Chayote Vines.

Served as a cold dish, it was fresh and crisp, definitely something you will crave again! I wish more restaurants served this vegetable entree!

As you can see below (I added photos for the entire Eat Joy Food menu) they have a massive menu of Taiwanese banquet style food options. So many items that it was a bit overwhelming but luckily we had a Taiwanese friend do the ordering for us.

As for ambiance, it’s average but the stinky tofu smell in the air was a bit tough to deal with. Pricing is a bit on the high end compared to Java Cafe (another Taiwanese spot nearby).“

“PSA: Google maps will take you to a wrong location!! Use Apple Maps instead (it’s on the corner of Huntington & First Ave):

The food, vibes, and the staff here are wonderful! The beef noodle soup here has such a clean and refreshing taste, not oily at all. Super kind owners. I would come here every day if I could.“

“Very happy to eat authentic Taiwanese food!
Bringing the complete taste of Taiwan to LA, the food was very touching~
Ban Niang has a very forthright southern personality?I felt like I was back home for a second
The drumstick rice and salty crispy chicken are both delicious?“

“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

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

“Found a gem in walnut, came here with a craving of the Shanghainese food. A must order dish is their fried rice cake with mixed beef bits radish and shrimp. Loved their vibe and the service was quick and friendly. Enjoyed all the dishes with no disappointment, the price was fair and portions were big!“

“It's definitely a different experience! First you get choices of meats, veggies, noodles from the fridge & you do your own mixing. They offer the soup base & you can ask for refills. They charge per the big plates that you get from the fridge. Worth the try! I consider this as a go to comfort food 😋“

“If you haven’t tried Taiwanese popcorn chicken before, this is the perfect place to start. Their popcorn chicken is authentic, with a crispy, golden exterior and a juicy, flavorful interior that won’t disappoint. There are also some simple tables and chairs set up inside, providing a space to enjoy your meal. The shop is located inside Secoya Market and sells traditional Taiwanese street food. They also offer Japanese sushi but I haven't had the chance to try it.

Parking: There is plenty of parking outside the Secoya Market.“

“We ordered their "Big Saving" deal which includes 6 inaris and 1 drink for $30. I shared with my husband and we were surprised by how full we were. Everything was very flavorful and tasty. There is even an option to order online. Love supporting this new local business!“

“服務很好，菜色多，又好吃！“

“Thank you for providing great customer service.“

“This is Shun Cheung Ip. I am the waiter you mentioned. I think my service is very good. Since you said so, don’t come to our restaurant to eat next time. If you are not satisfied, you can go to my boss. There is no need to be here. Talking nonsense and making random comments“

“正宗台灣味～店家也很客氣“

“great food, healthy options, good service“

“Bought frozen food from here 1st time. Great food. Hope they have more options in frozen items in the future. I will definitely buy more in the future. One suggestion: Vacuum seal bag must be sealed securely especially the soup base. My beef stew soup and chicken noodle bags are leaking 😕. Luckily I have ziplock bag on each item before I put in my freezer. Otherwise my refrigerator will be all wet after I defrost my item in my refrigerator.“

“The place was very empty when I got there, therefore we were able to be seated quickly. The food was fresh and it was tasty. I was worried and checked the ratings online to make sure it was legit. lol.

The bad part is that there isn’t enough workers so it’s hard to get their attention when they’re cooking.

Other than that it was excellent.“

“Menu is virtual, but everyone at the table can add their order to the same order for the whole table. Pretty cool and the menu is pretty expensive. Interesting options you likely won't find many other places.

Wheelchair accessibility: Most/all tables can accommodate a wheelchair“

“God! It's a touching taste
We came to play from AZ and were recommended by relatives and friends to try it out.
Shacha water spinach and mutton is simply the taste that I miss in my memory
The scallion chicken is super tender, the oyster cakes are also delicious, and the kids love the sausages.
But the shredded ginger intestine is not sour enough, and the intestine is a bit too soft after cooking.
What’s even more touching is that if you spend $30 or more, you’ll get a free Taiwanese beer!
It’s just a quick-service restaurant!
Fast food and great service!“

“The food was delicious, portions are very generous with good prices. I had the Mango slushee with boba and it was so tasty. Next time I will definitely try another one of their slushee drinks.“

“I always enjoy the Beef Stew Noodle and Popcorn Chicken. The service is also good.“

“Used to be my favorite breakfast place in Arcadia but the quality has gone down lately. Their rice burritos became very stingy on the fillings, mostly rice. Their soy milk is still good, green onion pancakes, and egg crepes are good.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian rice roll, green onion pancake, egg crepe, vegetarian buns, crispy Chinese donut. Soy milk and peanut milk“

“First time coming here and it was busy right when they opened, but it was easy to be seated. The steamed dumplings were flavorful & the steamed pork buns were super tasty and had a nice softness to them. Fair warning the parking in this plaza can be tough.“

“Long story but me and my friends needed to eat really fast because we had to be somewhere and because of the rush we were being a bit confusing but the employee there was still very chill about it and had amazing customer service. Our group as a whole ordered a bunch of side dishes and one main dish but the food still came out in a jiffy fresh, tasty, and hot. I feel really bad because I didn’t give a tip for how well of a job they did since we were in such a rush but I wanted to leave a review on how good this place is.“

“Every of the week, they have their own specials! We went in for their lunch. Walk in and they’ll seat you at a table. It wasn’t busy during lunch time. They have lots of to go orders as I see people coming in and out.Taiwanese Sausage /Popcorn chicken - both comes with rice with minced pork + soup + small sides + whatever you picked. The portions are good for its price. The meats weren’t overcooked and the sides were all flavorful!Takoyaki - we got this as a complimentary appetizer. It was good and bigger than some places I’ve been to.Milk tea- not too sweet! It was pretty good. We got samples to taste.Interior - definitely a bit older looking but I’m here for the food. I would recommend them to wipe down their plates, tables more. If was a bit sticky when I gel onto my combo platter.Staffs were all nice and speaks a bit of English. Their menu are also in English so don’t worry!

Parking: Lots of parking but the spots are tiny!“

“Simple Taiwanese lunch bentos, generally $11 each (since March 2024 I believe), cash only. Check the Facebook page for the daily menu. There is one option each for chicken, pork, or fish. Additionally, I believe you can call in ahead of time to order a fried pork chop (no walk-in orders for that). Each bento comes with a small soup. Flavors are on the lighter side; if you prefer stronger flavors, you might not enjoy these bentos.“

“This is the spot for authentic Taiwanese style pork chops! You’ll love it if you into mom and pop food that is cooked and served with love.

Be patient, they are busy and set your expectations given this is only run by 2 people.

Amazing food, fair prices and easy to get to.“

“I have been to this ten ren for almost 10 years and never leave a review for this place. The food and the service always good. I'm a milk and fruit tea girl and I have been to many teas places. But Tenren teas always the top notch for me.“

“Ver friendly and helpful staff, service was fast and food was hot. The baked turnip cake and hot soy milk are my favorite, all food on the menu is so delicious. I drive all the way from El Segundo to come eat here, it's that good?Features: Everyone one had masks on, social distancing was well enforced“

“I recommended to all my friend come enjoy here. very good delelicious Hot Pot great service all servers veri nice and kind“

“I have been to Monja since my high school time. It is a very convenient place to eat quick and nice food. They have the best noodles and the best fried salted chicken. Their taste is exactly Taiwan style. It is also a good place to hang out with classmates and friends there to chat and play games. I love this place!“

“great taste, comfort food and great service.“

“100% recommended, food is delicious“

“We got the beef & beef tendons& beef tripe with rice noodles mild spicy but honestly I ordered some chili paste to make it more spicy. We also got a side of Inoke mushrooms wrapped in beef were really good and it’s tasted so good if you put them in the broth of the beef soup. We also got the strawberry oolong tea drink and that made the food taste even better. The sweet lady who served us was helpful and nice. She even gave us water as we waited for our food. Seats are limited so first come first serve but dining in was a good experience. In total we spent 57$ for all of that.“

“Good soup and side dishes. Large servings and servers are very nice😁“

“One of the few Taiwanese styled Chinese breakfast in town. The green onion cakes 蟹壳黄）is pretty good when it’s warm. We’ve coming up this pace for years and the quality has always been about the same; though the prices have gone up a lot over the last year or so.

Vegetarian options: Most items are meatless, but many items contain eggs.

Parking: Lots of spaces.“

“I try many broth and this is the Best broth I ever had“

“Chicha San Chen has always been one the popular boba place originated from Taiwan a few years ago and the trend / brand was brought to the States. They are known for their high quality tea.

When it first opened in San Gabriel, I was so happy because 626 finally has a known, high quality tea brand that open here. There are many boba shops in the 626 but their drink is just average. If you have been to Asian, especially Taiwan or hong kong, their milk teas/tea depending on the style you like amazes you. The taste and quality of those boba shops can’t compare. Are they bad though? No of course not but you always want crave for the best one right?

This place is one of the best ones. Good tea quality, hot and perfect sweetness boba and other drink refreshers. There are always super long lines regardless of which store it is. Not going to be a big difference here with the wait as you can expect is 9/10 times when you come. Thats the only negative comment I would say about this place and other store locations.

This particular location is small and long lines are expected. Drinks are great just like other stores. I’m happy that the quality of their drinks didn’t just dip after opening a few locations in US. The reason is usually when a popular brand is brought from other countries and after opening different locations, they tend to drop ( service, quality and taste ), not with them though! They stay consistent!

Keep it up CHICHA San Chen!!“

“It is a Togo vegan place with delicious bento box at amazing price. My mom who is vegan always asks me to stop by whenever I am visiting her to grab her a bento box. They do take credit card (used to be cash only). They also have a lot of frozen food for sale.“

“Many bakery items origned from Europe including the salty and the sweet items. Ones can find some special snacks from Taiwan and also more homemade fresh desserts. The other reason I recommend is the breakfast combo with both the drink and the sandwich ?.“

“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.“
