Happy to have stumbled across this place as our old clay pot rice place has been closed for a few months.
The rice roll was fresh. Clay pot rice was perfectly crispy at the bottom. Wonton soup was perfect for the rainy day. Everything was really really good. Service was friendly. We will be back.

Very good food! Amazing people as well! I ordered the beef over rice and it was amazing! I met the waiter Jimmy and he took care of me and my needs! Also gave me my lemon iced tea for free! Great guy! Definitely will be coming back.
Square Bistro is a solid spot if you’re craving claypot rice! 🍚 If you’re ordering a claypot, just make sure you have at least 20 minutes because it does take some time to prepare.
The rice rolls are REALLY good but they dont come with egg as the picture shows and definitely something I’d recommend getting. If you’re a fan of claypot rice, this place is definitely worth checking out. Simple, comforting, and satisfying! 😋

Square Bistro is a homey, no frills, Cantonese restaurant in El Monte. It is a small, low key spot that is very family ran, and the family that runs it is super nice. The food tastes amazing, with home cooked flavor in every dish. The spot is pretty small but perfect for a small group meal. It feels like you were back in the village, with a small space, great food, and no loud music.
The owner recommended their frogs dish, which is fresh frog, not the frozen kind, so you can taste the difference. The clay pot rice with cure pork and sausages is another hit, and the wonton soup is just great also. Other dishes include the clay pot rice with eel, seafood clay pot, eel claypot rice, spareribs clay pot, fish filet congee, shrimp rice rolls, and rice noodles with shrimp and eggs. The spareribs clay pot was made to order and took about 20 minutes, and the rice was perfectly cooked. The breakfast meals are great. Service was attentive, and the restaurant is very clean and nice. This tai Shan cuisine restaurant is different from other canto restaurants in sgv and is a must visit.
