Taiwanese Restaurants near Downey, CA

“Small place. Super friendly staff. Self serve boba. Have 20 different flavors. Some interesting. Some super good. They let you taste test which is awesome. Prices are decent keeping in mind the times now. They have a food menu. Had the spicy shrimp and pork wonton soup. It didn't disappoint. Hit the spot. Will definitely be visiting this place again !“

“Amazing takeout family meal which features the most flavorful and delicious Char Siu Wagyu Short Rib with fluffy bao. All side dishes are well executed and delectable. One of the best staying at home meals I’ve had! Highly recommend it!“

“We had minced pork on rice, beef noodle soup, Dan Dan noodles, basil eggplant, pork belly bun, shaved ice and dou hua.
Overall, the food is pretty good. With some fine tunes, it can be closer to the yummy level of food in Taiwan, like some red beans in dessert are still hard, Dou Hua is too dry and needs some liquid or shaved ice to go with it, traditional shaved ice is too sweet though I like it much better than Korean style shaved ice, and brown rice is too hard. Service is good. Staff is nice. The atmosphere is relaxing and comfortable. Order at the counter, self service for water, extra bowls and utensils.
We live in the west side, and we will come back to try other stuff on the menu.“

“Everything we had here was fantastic! I loved the mango iced tea because it actually tastes like mangos, the chicken was nice and crunchy on the outside, juice and delicious on the inside. We also had xiao baos and their dry noodles with peanut butter sauce which were both fantastic! I would recommend against getting their devils hot sauce unless you have like an amazing spice tolerance! I thought my spice tolerance was fine because i can handle tapatio and valentina easily but this sauce left me chugging my drink and feeling the chili under my tongue for hours!“

“I enjoyed this place a lot. It was a little bit hard to find at first, as it is located above the supermarket. The server was very friendly, helping me to find a good vegetarian option. The cold sesame noodles were tasty and refreshing, and the price is not bad ($8.99). The dining area is spacious and comfortable.“

“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“

“Surprised that there was no in seating availability but stayed for the smell of the food. We got two drinks, popcorn chicken, and bok choy. Chicken was soft not dry and very tasty. Bok chop was simple and steamed to perfection.

Oh my lord. Everything was cooked so well and tasty. Would love to come back here!!“

“If you like eating Taiwanese food, you want to come here. Great tasting food and very reasonable priced. One of the most authentic Taiwanese restaurants in SGV (in my opinion). ���“

“This is a Taiwanese restaurant, nothing fancy but old style Taiwanese comfort food. It's not even a big restaurant, but a small one. Their salt and pepper chicken with basil is top notched as well as stinky tofu. They don’t really have a server but only the owner and yet they provide good service. This restaurant has hand made dumplings which you can buy and bring home to cook. Overall, a good and authentic Taiwanese food.“

“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

“Traditional Taiwanese dishes served in a banquet setting. That’s a first - I have only seen Taiwanese food served in casual restaurants and cafes.

Menu is expansive and every dish we ordered tasted authentic. Best stinky tofu I’ve had outside of Taiwan.“

“Friendly and hospitable staff, delicious food, fast service.“

“100% recommended, food is delicious“

“A real gem of a place among a lot of average Chinese restaurants in this area. The Peking duck itself is done in a style that seems authentic to Beijing, though it may not suit everyone's tastes especially those with a canto preference. Majority of the banquet restaurants in SGV have a Cantonese slant to Peking duck dishes (lotus buns, sweeter hoisin sauce, slightly more caramelized skins) but I'm not trying to draw too much of a comparison here as its just fundamentally different.

Duck House was fantastic in terms of flavor and preparation of the duck. The skin was super crispy, the meat tasted fairly lean yet succulent, and the sauce/condiments paired very well. Delicious, and upscale, though I would say for one duck and only 10 pancakes, it was nearly $100 and I don't think it was so outstanding to warrant that price. We added 5 lotus buns and 5 add'l pancakes which bumped it to $110. It did however feed 3 adults and 2 young kids fully, so about $20 pp is pretty decent for fancy duck.“

“It ‘s so Yammy and health food!“

“Craving Asian BBQ but don't really want to over-pay and under-eat? This is the spot for you! This Taiwanese BBQ is a self service spot. Get your chunky butt up and pull plates of meat, veggies, desserts from the freezer! Don't forget the butter!

The unlimited rice, porridge and soup helps fill what the meats don't.

The meat here is pretty basic. It's thin cuts of maranaded beef, pork, chicken, lamb, etc. Not the highest quality, but you're paying $4.99 or so per plate. Whether you grill or hotpot, you're charged for what you grab.

They have happy hours here too where you save like 15% or so! Definitely some cheap BBQ eats. Great for groups. Very interactive without overeating and without breaking the bank.

I went today with my senior parents of (group of 3) and our total was $41 after tax. Insane in 2025! If you want to go ham on the protein, maybe do a AYCE KBBQ.

My only complaint is everything is a but sticky from the bbq smoke. Definitely wear some clothes that are ready for the wash. Not a first date place. More like a go in your PJs as a fun date night after the fact. Cheers.“

“William was so kind. Some location don’t make it the same like this location. Like i always get the taro slush but its watery but here in this location He even make some customized drinks for the same price. Taro, honeydew slush and Q.Q milk is amazing!! 10/10 would still come back at this location!“

“I could give it a 3 because it wasn't wow per se but we just expected a bit more. The food is on point and we aren’t used to how authentic it was nor really experienced a traditional Taiwanese breakfast. Was excited to try thinking we can pick up some traditional regular Chinese breakfast items but realized reading the menu on the glass after walking here from our hotel that the breakfast they offered wasn't what we envisioned it to be. Thinking it would be some Chinese pastries we can take back to the hotel like dantat or buns or even some dimsum items. They didn't have any of that but more a sit down hot meatier and heavier items. So there was another older Chinese lady looking at the menu outside and she too said oh this is Taiwanese kind of breakfast and then walked away. I didn't know what to say to her either lol

Anyways we still wanted to get something especially since the owners saw us staring at the menu for so long and no one was really inside either lol so I ordered soybean milk sweet and hot and a fried dough stick to dip. Got two buns to try and took it to go. The milk wasn't bad not too sweet but it wasn't the best I've had either. I did like the fried dough stick especially when hot and fresh. The other 2 buns were ok too. Flaky not bad. Authentic. Red bean and sesame. Price was ok too.

Would I come back? Not sure. There are so many other places to try. I really loved our hotel next door and how close it was to all these fun shops and eateries. That I will come back to.

If you happen around this area pop into try. The owners seem nice but because I couldn't converse as well as I wanted to it got a tad awkward. It was fun though !“

“Delicious 🤤 got three drinks and all amazing. Highly recommend l!“

“I haven’t been back to Los Angeles for eight years. “Rolling Pot” is an element of Los Angeles that remains in my memory. Millet porridge, sweet potato porridge, various side dishes, and biscuits, as well as the World Journal for sale. I’ll check it out next time I go back. Look, I don't know if the two sisters selling rice are still there? I miss the days when I first came to the United States, the days when I struggled for half a day to get three small dishes or five, those who had dinner together, hope everything is ok!“

“The food is excellent and there is a wide variety of dishes“

“Our first time to try this place. We loved it, really good and reasonably priced!“

“If you like Mama Lu's or P P pop, this is another similar restaurant with the same type of comfort foods that you'll also like as well. And like the other two spots, this place can get packed fast for both dinner and lunch. They have great portions (peep the giant cup of lemon iced tea) and the beef noodles and XLBs are the go-to's. Stir fried udon is one of my faves. Parking can be difficult though!“
