Taiwanese Restaurants near Brea, CA

“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

“Surprisingly good! My picky friend also complimented this place. The veggies were really fresh and the kidney was processed well. Dishes were seasoned perfectly. Not too heavy like a lot of other restaurants. The experience was like dining at a high-end Taiwanese restaurant in Taiwan. Though the dishes were expensive, the price includes sales tax. I will still come back due to the quality and to support the business!“

“Thank you for providing great customer service.“

“We had a wonderful experience with Din Tai Fung in Downtown Disney! Since it’s located inside Downtown Disney, you’ll need to go through the security screening before getting there, so be sure to allow a little extra time.

The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful, and every employee we interacted with was welcoming, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. We ordered takeout, and the pickup process was smooth and efficient. Although we didn’t dine inside this visit, the restaurant looked gorgeous, and we’d definitely love to eat there next time.

Our meal was outstanding! We ordered the Pork Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings), sliced chicken noodle soup, noodles with spicy sauce, Shrimp & Kurobuta Pork Spicy Wontons, and Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The soup dumplings lived up to the hype, the chicken noodle soup was comforting, the spicy noodles and wontons had just the right amount of heat and amazing flavor, and the Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao truly had happiness in every bite.

The best part was taking our dinner back to the hotel and enjoying it while watching the Disneyland fireworks from our balcony. It was the perfect ending to an unforgettable day.

Whether you dine in or order takeout, Din Tai Fung is absolutely worth the visit. We can’t wait to come back!“

“The food is home-style, fresh, and not overly oily or salty. Huge portions with great value—their $9.90 combo meal is a steal, and the Sour Cabbage Fish, Three-Cup Chicken, and Luffa are all delicious. Super clean space and friendly vibe.“

“really great milk tea along of choices and Vietnamese food“

“My family and I live this place. The food is fresh and delightful. The only thing I would say in a different light is that I wish they had more staff. The service is good however, sometimes it takes a while for your server to cover to you due to understaffed. Other then that this place is one of our faves.“

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

“The pork knuckle was amazing—tender, rich, and full of flavor! The soup and sides were delicious, and the portions were generous. Friendly service, cozy atmosphere, and authentic Taiwanese comfort food. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be back!“

“so good! I got the chicken cutlet, spicy hot stinky tofu, and classic combo.

all the food was so good! the cutlet was seasoned well and not dry or overcooked.

the classic combo comes with popcorn chicken, sweet potato fries and squid balls. very delicious!

the spicy steamed stinky tofu had good stinky tofu and mala flavor. it was good with rice.“

“The stinky tofu was decent. I hadn’t had it for five years, so I was still happy to find it here. That said, it didn’t feel stinky enough or juicy enough, and the tofu texture seemed a little different from the common type I’m used to in Taiwan.

I asked for extra pickled cabbage, but it was never served, and water was not provided either.
Still, because stinky tofu is so rare to find here, I have to give full points for that. The 肉圓was also really good.“

“正宗台灣味～店家也很客氣“

“I recently checked out PARTEA NYC XP - West Covina and it’s honestly such a fun and unique spot—definitely more than just your typical boba place.

The whole vibe is inspired by Taiwanese night markets, and you can really feel it the second you walk in. It’s lively, colorful, and has a cool, almost arcade-like atmosphere with games and claw machines, which makes it a great place to hang out with friends, not just grab a drink.

As for the drinks, they’re solid. I tried one of their fruit teas and it was super refreshing with real fruit inside—perfect balance of flavor and sweetness. They also have a ton of options, from classic milk teas to their whipped specialty drinks, so there’s something for everyone.

The food is a nice bonus too. We ordered popcorn chicken and it was crispy, flavorful, and hit the spot. It’s cool that you can come here for both drinks and actual snacks instead of just boba.

Ordering is done through a kiosk, which makes things quick and efficient, especially when it’s busy.

Overall, if you’re looking for a fun, upbeat place with good drinks, snacks, and a unique experience, this spot is definitely worth checking out. I’ll definitely be back!“

“服務很好，菜色多，又好吃！“

“they are legit. The rice especially, I don't know how they got their rice to the exact texture but I loved it. And the braised pork trades blow with the best of the best in LA. I wish their steamed cabbage had more flavor though. Needs to spice it up with maybe a few clicks of dried chili. Old dude may look and sound irate but he's alright by me.“

“We ordered a ton of food, and every dish was seriously yummy! The staff hooked us up with some great recommendations too—the stir-fried beef was super tender, and the chow mein was packed with goodies. Loved it all! The mung bean soup? Perfect for beating the summer！ prices is friendly…“

“Very friendly staff. I ordered the fried squid. It was huge. She even said it was biggest she ever seen. For $15 it's a bargain. It's made to order. Once you bite into it, you are transported to Taiwan night market!!

Give them a try.
You won't disappoint.“

“We always like to go to Picnic Time to get their Yubu. It's a small and cute cafe, but the ambiance is welcoming and comfortable. They also have a lot of new items on the menu. We ordered their seared salmon Yubu x 3, one Kimchi Yubu, one Lemon Ponzu Salmon Yubu, and one eel Yubu.
The food was fresh and delicious. The server was friendly.“

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

“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.“

“great taste, comfort food and great 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.“

“I was curious about this place, so I walked past it to check out their menu before heading to our fave dim sum spot in Walnut/City Of Industry (All That n Dim Sum). Sadly, they’re closed on Tuesdays. Decided to come back here since they looked busy. At first, there were plenty of seats, but when I went back, only 2 seats way in the back were open. We went with the lunch specials, and honestly, best decision ever. I got Combo D—fried chicken steak and noodle soup, plus preserved veggies. My partner had Combo C—fried pork chop with dry noodles. Both were amazing! I loved the noodle soup, but the dry noodles were just as good. Both are classic Taiwanese comfort foods and the lunch specials also come with tea! Definitely recommend this spot if you’re craving some tasty, hearty dishes!
Ambiance - a small but busy cafe feel!“

“Love the chops a lot! But the woman server is horrible, she was very angry and taunt us because we didn't order as much as she want. She kept talking loudly about this and showed a long face even we ordered additional food afterwards, which ruined our whole experience. The men owner is good and nice. Hope I won't meet the woman again, maybe she's the owner who knows“

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

“Unexpectedly good personal shabu shabu here in this little cafe! The portion is very large for the price. It's already cooked and ready to eat. Meat and veggies are very tender and the broth is perfect. I think other dishes are just OK. Kung pao chicken was not very authentic. Tea is quite strong, but also quite impressive about the scent. Boba was less than what I expected from a place known for boba.“

“This place is always delicious. It’s one of the few places that my boyfriend and I stop by to have casual comfy dinner when we visit family in the area.

I always get steak or lamb chop which is cooked perfectly medium rare with little pink so it’s super tender.

My bf got shrimp in the past and said it’s delicious but the salmon was overcooked and just okay.

My mom got chicken, dad got short ribs and there were no complaints. Black pepper sauce was what we usually got and with the noodle it’s good.

Each combo we got also came with a drink as well.

The service was great for us as well, we walked in toward end of service and they told us we had 10 minutes to order before kitchen closes, we asked if it’s okay to stay and eat and they said yes and even joked around making us feel comfortable. Could be be because we spoke mandarin.

Love this local spot and hope it stays. It’s very consistent.“

“I just just opened a bag of the ground pork original flavor and consumed the whole 12oz bag in two days! A tad sweet & sticky for me, texture was Great though! Ordered three more 12oz bags to try the other flavors?“

“First time trying this restaurant we got the yuzu sandwich and spicy chicken sandwich. My yuzu the chicken was only half the sandwich a small tender. Its missing some cheese flavor is good. The spicy chicken sandwich was ok alot of seasoning dry rub. The best was the curly fries super delicious and crispy. I also didn’t appreciate my side of ranch half filled and i paid for it. Drink were good. No customer service self order options. Restrooms could be cleaner. Location is nice.“

“價錢合理，可以吃到家鄉味“

“Mom wanted some white bread so we stopped by after the shaved ice place next door. They have one of the best Taiwanese pineapple cakes I’ve ever tasted. They are not cloyingly sweet like others. Service behind the counter was efficient. It’s a little bakery-cafe with some tables and chairs for dine in. There are assorted breads, cookies and cakes. We got ours to go.“

“Traditional and original but obviously, aging in all aspects. Definitely, needed a modern transformation from menu to decor, and business model. The Soy Milk is above average while the rest may not be too consistent. Respect for their hard works! Jiayu.

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

“Very good quality! I really liked the Bubble Volcano. The barista named Odelia, was very respectful, friendly, and super cute. She’s such a hard worker and really puts effort into making sure everything is done right and that customers have a great experience. She was very welcoming, patient, and attentive while taking my order, and you can tell she genuinely cares about providing good service. Her positive attitude made the experience even better. Overall, the drinks are amazing, the service was great, and I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“The staff is friendly, helpful, and quick. That place is always busy and the staff moves quickly to help each patron.“

“Grabbed takeout from Tasty BBQ, and it was a fantastic decision—definitely beats cooking at home! Getting 3 dishes for $24 is an unbeatable value, and every single dish was packed with flavor, fresh, and delicious.
The staff working the front counter was attentive, friendly, and had everything packaged up quickly and securely. Great food, great price, and super convenient. This is definitely my new go-to spot whenever I don't feel like turning on the stove!“

“Been here a few times with my brother and his family. The food is not fancy but consistently solid.

This most recent visit we ordered their Beef Noodle Soup (portion is large, so excellent for sharing family style), Pan Fried Baos, Xiao Long Baos and Wonton Soup.

Beef Noodle Soup is tasty. Flavor is different from Taiwanese style, but enjoyable and their chewy handmade noodles is fire.

Pan Fried Baos is good. I really enjoy the taste of their filling. Just be careful taking the first bite, the juice tends to spray out.

Xiao Long Baos has good fillings. The wrapper is not super thin like Din Tai Fung, but also not paying through the nose for a serving.

The wonton soup is okay, but portion is big. Definitely not leaving this restaurant and having to stop for something else on the way home.

The shaved ice dessert is good too, but we didn’t order that today.

Solid 4.“

“I ordered a beef wrap to go. I was looking forward to eat it when I got it. But I was disappointed about the food when I opened it. It's too greasy. The wrap had too much of vinegar in it. The taste of it was so so (some parts were no taste, some parts were to salty and others had strong vinegar taste.) I ate it two nights. I had hard times going number 2 in the morning.“

“Solid spot for individual hot pot; portions are decent and broth has a nice kick without being too salty. I liked having my own little pot bubbling in front of me, felt cozy and kinda fun. Staff moved fast, everything came out pretty quick.“

“the guba umami (beef noodle soup) was really good! although i will say that even though it says mild, for me it was quite a bit spicy but that’s probably just cause I have low spice tolerance. 😅despite that though, it was so good i had to finish the entire bowl. the service was great and the guy at the counter was really nice.“
