Taiwanese Restaurants near Hacienda Heights, CA

“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…“

“Happy to see that Cowboy Cafe is back!

We came a few minutes after 5 pm on Saturday, right before the dinner rush. They have 2-top, 4-top and 6-top tables and booths, so if you're in a larger group, you'll have to split up your group. We got the second to last open table for 2.

Our order taker was very helpful, urging us to get our order in before the group of 10 gets theirs in. We got the rib eye hot plate ($19.99) and filet mignon hot plate ($24.99), both cooked medium with black pepper sauce and served with spaghetti. The hot plate includes a drink too, so we picked the black tea (opted out of the $1 upgrade). Everything was so good. Our favorite of the two was definitely the filet mignon!

The menu is all by QR code. Parking is plentiful in the large lot.“

“We have heard of this new Taiwanese restaurant for a while. We ordered the crispy chicken cutlet, popcorn chicken and of course the yam balls. Chain store drinks are sometimes questionable but the gentleman recommended their fruit teas, so we ordered one.
The restaurant was clean and airy, the customer service was quite nice. We both liked their crispy chicken cutlet, it's very crunchy, the only downside is the size. The popcorn chicken was meh... There's not much flavor and the crunch was missing. We've tried better popcorn chickens in Taiwan so, our standard is a bit higher?
The yam balls were chewy and delicious. But the portion was really small (for the price). Overall, we will be back for the chicken cutlets as they're quite good and for other items on the menu we haven't tried.“

“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.“

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

“奶茶、芋圆、仙草、冰沙、豆腐花“

“After spending a month in Taiwan, traveling around this amazing country to explore the culinary traditions and culture, I’ve missed so many of the specific tastes, textures and dishes. Golden Leaf brought me back to these missed tastes — the oyster pancake, noodle dishes, fried chicken nuggets were all standouts in their authenticity and tastiness.“

“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.“

“One of my wife’s favorite place to get brunch. Reliably fresh, tasty, and good value for the money. I usually order the pork burger combo. Try to come earlier as it starts getting busy after 11 on the weekend. There’s underground parking if the outdoor parking fills up.“

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

“It felt like going to a relative’s home for lunch and they just kept bringing out one dish that’s better than the other. The owner had so many different dishes that were not on the menu board and would just told the customers. Everything was delicious. There were many regulars dining there; I just followed their lead and ordered whatever they ordered and all turned out terrific“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“This was a surprise discovery and we are so happy to know this is here! Food is quick, well presented and delcious. The green onion pancake is excellent - thin, flaky and great flavor. Prices are reasonable. Friendly service. We had both the oolong and chrysanthemum teas and they are refreshing. There is indoor seating (about 5 tables). Authentic Taiwanese food.“

“100% recommended, food is delicious“

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

“Good amount of parking. Clean interior with plenty of seating. Server, Alicia, was very nice and accommodating. Ordered Popcorn chicken rice with egg, twice cooked pork, and shrimp fried rice. All the dishes were really good and also got a free tofu dish since our order was more than $50. Would come back again!“

“Recommend by foodie to try out their infamous Scallion Sesames Pancake. It’s definitely a winner! Crispy crust w/fluffy soft fillings w/generous amount of diced green onion in 8-slice🥰
I also ordered Veggie version tofu soup. I’m impressed the chef took this in a higher skill shredded tofu other than just chop-chop in dice. Soup is silky n tasty.
The other dish added on my order is watercress stir fried beef in satay sauce, a typical Taiwanese dish. It’s just average.“

“Solid beef noodle restaurant with a simple menu and great food. The atmosphere is very cozy and you are treated well like family. The food come out very fresh and was super satisfying on a rainy day. Quick, filling, great value, and no frills.“

“Yumi Time is one of those low-key neighborhood spots that quietly wins you over with real comfort food and genuinely kind service. A Taiwanese homestyle flavors, and everything we tried tasted like it was cooked with patience instead of shortcuts.

The braised pork rice bowl was the first “okay, this is legit” moment. The pork was chopped into glossy, tender cubes with that rich soy-braised aroma, spooned generously over hot white rice. It hit the perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet, with enough collagen-y goodness to feel luxurious without being greasy. The little pop of bright pickles on the side (and fresh cilantro on top) kept each bite clean and addictive.

The noodle soup was just as satisfying. It came in a big metal bowl with a clear, comforting broth, loads of bean sprouts and greens, and a braised egg that tasted properly marinated. The noodles were light and slurpable, and the soup had that simple, clean depth that’s hard to get right—especially when you want something soothing but still flavorful. Add a touch of chili (if you like heat) and it becomes even more craveable.

We also ordered the braised pork knuckle bowl, and it’s absolutely worth it if you like melt-in-your-mouth texture. The skin and meat were tender, richly seasoned, and paired perfectly with rice, pickled ginger, and herbs. It’s hearty, satisfying, and the kind of dish that makes you slow down and enjoy the whole bowl.

Don’t skip the side dish with tofu puffs and cabbage—soft, spongey tofu that soaks up sauce, plus cabbage that stays crisp-tender. It’s a great add-on to balance the richer braised items.

Service was a highlight. Staff were warm, attentive, and quick to check in without hovering. Food came out fast, everything was neatly plated, and the overall vibe felt relaxed and welcoming. Portions were generous for the price, and the dishes all worked well family-style if you’re sharing.“

“This spot is a must try! Really enjoyed their purple rice roll. Its all the hype and rightfully so. Get the fried donut extra crispy, add green onion pancake and brown sugar with their sasuage. That made it so so good. I also really enjoyed their beef roll with green onion pancake as it was packed full of flavor!“

“真的很满意 我可以反复去吃十次以上的餐馆 只是 营业时间太短了 ，希望店家能加长营业时间“

“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

“服務很好，菜色多，又好吃！“

“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.“

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

“we got our rolls within about 5 minutes of ordering and they were great. even cold the roasted duck wrap smacked and are fairly filling. found out about this place through a friend of mine and now recommending it to everyone.

Vegetarian options: there's a veggie wrap“

“Nice and casual spot for breakfast, offering lots of Taiwanese classic foods. The items are simple and made well. Open early so popular for breakfast. You order at the counter or on their website and the food comes out quickly. Staff are friendly and all of the utensils are disposable for quick dining.“

“Not the fanciest boba shop you could go to, but it's a Quickly, you'll get a good deal on some good food and drinks. The inside is actually decent with tables to study or do work. The people are nice. I love getting the popcorn chicken here, you get a giant bag and it's always hot and crispy.“

“My visit to the his place was few months ago. While I was working nearby I decided to look for a place to grab a bite for lunch. The nearest one was this amazing little spot located along the main street, b careful, don't speed or you will miss it. Since I wanted something quick I got the curry to go with a couple of milk teas. They were both absolutely delicious, for the amount of food the price is super reasonable. I will have to go back and try a new dish“

“I Couldn't find a solid review to help me order but its so close to home i took a chance. Saw a Bulgogi beef on the menu which is a familiar Dish to me so i quickly ordered That and decided to sit down. A couple of minutes later, and i have a Nice Healthy bowl of Rice Topped with a heap of BEEF! It was delicious! Thank YOU!“

“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.“

“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 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 food, healthy options, good service“

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

“This was extra special day Mama time sweet day! because it was our mama time while the kids were in school—a chance to slow down, catch up with a friend, and enjoy a peaceful meal together. We loved this cute little corner we discovered in Walnut. The space is cozy, clean, and thoughtfully arranged—perfect for relaxing and chatting without feeling rushed.

The owner was incredibly kind, welcoming, and polite. The hospitality really stood out and made us feel at home.
Delicious small bite & beautifully prepared dish! We tried the mini yubu sushi, which were fun, flavorful, and perfectly portioned for sharing.
The donburi bowl with seared salmon was so good—fresh, satisfying, and beautifully balanced. We also enjoyed the sweet shrimp & tobiko combination, which tasted very fresh and light.

Everything felt small enough to sample more, yet still filling and satisfying. Wanted to tried 9 yubu sushi. Owner said stop tried 4!! Too much food for beautiful ladies to handle LoL 😆 it is true. Honestly, we wanted to try even more items, but our stomachs were already full!

Looking Forward to Trying More Next Time😋

There are so many items on the menu we’re excited to come back for—especially the specialized sushi selections and the Chef’s Combo Rice Bowl. This is definitely a place worth returning to when you want thoughtful food, a calm atmosphere, and friendly service.

Such a lovely spot for a casual meet-up, a quiet lunch, or foodie exploring. Just a recommendation bigger tables for people who want to order more food and for bigger group size. The only suggestion I would appreciate so I can bring more friends over. Next time I’ll try different drinks. I thought mine was a little bit sweet. With mango and matcha tea.
Highly recommend — we will absolutely be back!“

“MR DRAGON NOODLE HOUSE delivers an outstanding noodle experience that easily earns a full 5 stars. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, with a casual, comforting vibe that sets the tone for a great meal.

The noodles are the highlight—rich, flavorful broth paired with perfectly cooked noodles that have just the right texture. Whether you go with a classic beef noodle soup or a spicier specialty bowl, each dish is packed with depth and balance. The toppings are fresh and generous, especially the tender meats and crisp vegetables that add great contrast in every bite.

Service is quick and attentive without feeling rushed, and the staff does a great job of making sure everything comes out hot and fresh. Portions are satisfying, leaving you full but not overly heavy.

Overall, MR DRAGON NOODLE HOUSE stands out as a go-to spot for comforting, high-quality noodle dishes that are consistent, flavorful, and worth coming back for.“

“I’ve been on a Taiwanese food binge lately and have been searching everywhere for some good, authentic Taiwanese dishes. This little mom-and-pop, hole-in-the-wall spot really hit the mark. The food tastes just like what I’d expect from back home or from the night markets in Taiwan.

I tried the stinky tofu (a must-have for any true Taiwanese food lover), the pork chop rice, and a few other dishes—and every bite was delicious, flavorful, and comforting. The portions are generous without being overwhelming, and the seasoning is on point.

The owners are super friendly and welcoming, which makes the dining experience feel even more like you’re visiting family. The restaurant shares a plaza with other shops, so there’s plenty of parking available, which is a big plus.

A couple of tips: it’s best to bring cash, as not everything is set up for cards. Also, they do have a restroom on site, which is always nice for a small place like this.

Overall, this is the kind of spot you want to keep coming back to—and the kind of hidden gem you almost don’t want to share so it stays special. Definitely one of my new go-to Taiwanese comfort food spots!“

“I did order online and pick up! I got their friend shrimp and egg chive pockets and they were just to die for! So freaking good! The veggie potstickers were good too, not too exciting though. My husband loved bao buns he got. Would love to come again and actually dine in!“

“One of my favorite Taiwanese restaurants in the area. The food here is incredibly authentic, with flavors that remind me of traditional Taiwanese home cooking. Their roasted duck is especially outstanding. Perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, and tender and juicy inside. The service is always friendly and attentive, making every visit enjoyable. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Definitely a place I keep coming back to and highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Taiwanese cuisine.“

“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.“

“Not sure if that was a tea place for me. Firstly, it was really sweet. Even though you can choose your own preference of sweetness ( I chose 50%) my tea tasted overly sweet. I got the fruit tea. A different and distinct flavor from other fruit teas I’ve had. Both drinks tasted heavy on sweetness despite the level being 50% and other 25% . However, I would give this place another try since the flavors were distinct and the place was neat and clean.

It is a self serve and not to hang out tea place. So just order and go.“

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

“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“

“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.“
