Taiwanese Restaurants near Menlo Park, CA

“So many creative and yummy options! We were lucky and able to get a same day reservation at 5:15 pm on a Friday.

Service is impeccable and it looked like there was more staff than tables when we arrived but over the course of dinner, as the rest filled up, it made more sense.

We loved the custard appetizer. So smooth with great textures and flavors from the potato, fish roe and everything else in the bowl.

The lasagna was very unexpected yet delicious with layers and ground meat.

The pawns had great flavor and we liked the sausages and tomatoes it came with. I also love that the bodies were de-shelled as already.

The cold noodle was very interesting with the foam. It's a very mild flavor so this dish is more about the presentation and textures.

The scallops were fresh but not that interesting. I love Hokkaido scallops but I prefer them raw. This cook was good, just not that interesting.

The spicy hot tofu soup was fine. It didn't feel different or elevated from what I've had at other places and a touch too salty for our tastes.

There's plenty to try on the menu and would have loved to try the kalbi but our bill was quite pricey already.

I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try, it's a great treat and dining experience.“

“Very good service, great food fair price“

“非常好吃，超愛煉乳銀絲卷“

“I had such a great experience here. I called because I knew I was going to arrive about five minutes after closing, and before I even asked if it was still possible to order, the staff member offered to prepare a bento box for me anyway. That alone meant a lot after a very long day at work.

Since it was my first time visiting, I wasn’t sure which sides to choose, so she helped pick them for me and did an excellent job. Everything was fresh, balanced, and delicious. When I arrived, everyone was incredibly kind and made sure I had all my utensils and condiments before I left.

The food quality was great, but what really stood out was how thoughtful and accommodating the team was. It’s rare to see that level of customer care, especially right at closing time. I’ll definitely be coming back. 🍱✨“

“Came here for the stinky tofu, and tried some of the other Taiwanese specialties... The fried green beans was a stand out, and the garlic cucumbers was very fresh. Also ordered the stewed pork bento box, which was their version of Taiwanese stewed minced pork over rice, which was served with a stewed whole egg, boiled bok choy, some yellow oshinko.... The crab pork soup dumplings were gigantic, about twice the size of the soup dumplings at DinTaiFung, but couldn't quite match up to it's famous brethren in terms of quality of ingredients. Then again, you're paying less than 1/2 the cost. Service was friendly and quick.... Finally, the stinky tofu wasn't that stinky... But did meet the expectations.... Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and not greasy at all. Would I come back? Yes“

“Good portion, and delicious food“

“Great food & service. Highly recommended to all . Clean & pleasant ambiance.“

“Taiwanese Eats is a takeout-only restaurant in Redwood City that specializes in fan tuan (Chinese rice burrito). Fan tuan has become super trendy lately, but this has been my go-to spot long before all the hype! I’m so glad I discovered it early because it’s gotten really popular now, and orders can take a bit longer during busy times.

I usually order it through DoorDash for breakfast or lunch, it’s so convenient, incredibly filling, and always hits the spot. My most favorite are braised pork and pork floss. They offer both sticky rice and purple rice options, and the purple rice costs a little extra. Personally, I think it’s worth it because I love its chewy texture, although my friend prefers the classic sticky rice. The crispy fried dough inside is always flavorful and adds the perfect crunch to every bite. And, the portions are super huge! I can almost never finish one in a single sitting, so I usually cut it in half and save the rest for later. It’s just as delicious the second time around.

Their soy milk is another favorite of mine. It’s fresh and not overly sweet, which I really appreciate since many places make it too sugary.

If you’re craving authentic Taiwanese breakfast, I highly recommend giving this place a try!“

“Delicious Gourmet Burgers!“

“My husband was born in Taiwan. He said, ‘This is very close to home-cooking flavour.’ I found traditional Taiwanese cooking a bit plain, but I gave it 4 stars because it’s very hard to find authentic Taiwanese restaurants that taste this good! We will come back.“

“太棒了，肉品沒吃多少，倒是吃了好幾磅的櫻桃🍒“

“food place for family and hang out“

“One of my fave dumpling places—only place that I found that had lamb handmade dumplings. The handmade dumplings are always so juicy and flavorful. I also love the salt and pepper tofu and green onion pancakes—they’re always perfectly crispy. The frozen dumplings are also really easy to steam at home. 10/10“

“Xiaoman Riceburrito was such a fun and satisfying dining experience! The food was flavorful, fresh, and packed with delicious textures, making every bite enjoyable. The portions were generous, the service was friendly, and the casual atmosphere was perfect for a relaxed meal. I’d definitely come back to try more!“

“The nightclub next door has people smoking pot. The front door area totally smell of pot.“

“Great find and will be back often … loved everything about this place“

“It's an older (almost hole in wall) type restaurant

I think it totally depends on what you order some things are solid (4 stars) and others are a bit lower

For example, I had kung pao, 3.5 before. Most of the dishes are 3-4 stars. Mongolian beef 3.5
Pork chop bento 3.75 stars

Today 10/2/25
We had beef stew and tendon 3.75 stars
The meat was really good but the broth, to me was ok. I have eaten at other Taiwanese beef noodle places. I just think their broth is better. It is very authentic but the flavor profile is not as tasty to me as other places

The general chicken was good solid 4 stars

Haven't had dim sum or weekend specials

Small place not too many tables 10 inside and 9 small two seaters patio outside“

“My son was sleeping in the car when I got there. I called them and asked are they able to drop the food off at outside because I can’t leave my car. They kinda concerned and said yes after a few seconds. Thank you so much for your kindness and your good food. Really appreciated it.“

“Very professional and patient staff. I watched a difficult and aggressive customer try to intimidate the staff. They responded calmly, while still offering to help the difficult customer with an order.
I recommend people support this small business“

“炸物、餐點都很有水準，非常有台灣味！極力推薦“

“One of my favorite bubble tea spots in the area! Since I live nearby, I'm a regular here—and I’ve pretty much tasted most of the menu, including their snacks.

Some of my personal favorites are the Vietnamese coffee, amber ice, peach with crema, white crystal with agar, honeydew, and their flavored teas. They offer drinks both hot and cold, and everything can be customized to your taste. I especially love that you can even split the cup into halves—super convenient!

Don’t miss the popcorn chicken—it's a must-try snack!

What truly sets this place apart, though, is the friendly staff and the amazing customer service. Keep up the great work, team!“
