Taiwanese Restaurants near Mountain View, CA

“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“

“Nice ambiance and friendly People“

“手工拉面不错，儿童友好，微辣的牛腩面也适合大人，总体不错，五星好评。“

“Amazing food, so many options, I recommend their popcorn chicken bento, and definitely get their oyster mushroom side. Also, shoutout to the friendly staff!!

I’m always a little conflicted leaving 5 star reviews because I don’t want long lines, but these guys deserve it… Definitely gonna keep coming back“

“I had such a great experience at Orange Square! The atmosphere is warm, modern, and welcoming — a perfect spot to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the service felt genuinely thoughtful. I especially appreciated the small touches — clean space, good music at the right volume, and the kind smiles from everyone there.“

“Good portion, and delicious food“

“The food was solidly good. The rice burrito (fan tuan) was decent. The pork ears were delicious—probably the best I’ve had in the US. The popcorn chicken was hot, crisp, and flavorful (it is on the spicier/more peppery side though).

Be warned, the restaurant is a weird hole in the wall, pick up only spot though. You cannot dine in here.“

“This place is spacious inside. If you come during peak time, there's usually a line. Their food comes quickly, so the wait usually isn't too bad.

The XLB is juicy inside and the dumpling size is bigger than Ding Tai Fung's. I'd say the skin is as thin and comparable to Ding Tai Fung's too. We tried all three kinds: the regular pork ones, pork with crab meat, and the shrimp with loofah squash. They're all good.

The flavor of the three-cup chicken is good, however, too many bones. They chopped the chicken with bones and there were fragmented bone pieces. You'll need to be careful when eating this dish.

Their steamed beef dumplings are good, but a bit on the salty side.

The sliced beef and cucumber roll with green onion pancake is so-so. Only has one thin slice of beef and there's not enough meat inside, compared to other restaurants I tried.

Their fried rice are tasty. We tried a few before and they're all decent. The picture below is the Sakura Shrimp fried rice and it's very flavorful without being too salty.

The steamed sole fish (filet) is surprisingly good. Worth a try if you haven't ordered this before, and no fish bones!

Their scrambled eggs with prawns is good. A lot of prawns and tasty eggs. A good protein dish.

Their sauteed veggies are pretty good too. We tried the sauteed A-choy and bitter melon with garlic. Both dishes are decent.

The boiled tofu with house special sauce is excellent.

If you don't want to wait for long line at Ding Tai Fung, this is the place to come. Of course if you want way better (Americanized) service, go to Ding Tai Fung. This service at this place is like typical authentic Chinese restaurants, don't expect too much.“

“I love eating at red hot wok, probably one of the best Taiwanese restaurants in the area.
Recommended dishes: sizzling lamb with black pepper sauce( you can choose any protein with the sauce, personally I prefer lamb), three cup chicken, stir fried lamb with bamboo shoots.“

“4.5 stars. These aren't really burritos, but more like large rice balls with a filling inside. That said, it is really tasty. It's not really enough for a full meal, maybe a quick breakfast or a light meal.

Also, keep in mind, there is no seating whatsoever. This is just a place where you pick up and go. I really recommend ordering in advance, because they are usually extremely slow.“

“We usually eat here and it is very good. The meat are fresh and the soup base is tasty unlike others“

“Today is our first time trying the food here. We got Taiwanese tempura, basil popcorn chicken and grilled pork chop bento. All the food is yummy. For sure we will go back to try other food. 😋“

“I stopped by Cafe Mei in Fremont for a quick breakfast and tried their Signature Pork Sung Sandwich. Wow, what a treat! The sandwich was perfectly toasted, with a flavorful pork patty, fresh cucumber, and that sweet mayo that ties it all together. It felt like a true taste of Taiwan, just like the reviews mentioned. The staff was super friendly, and the vibe was cozy yet trendy. Only wish they had longer hours for us late risers! Highly recommend for anyone craving an authentic Taiwanese breakfast sandwich.“

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

“Celebrating Lunar New Year 2026 in style!

Meeting up here with Taiwanese friends for Taiwanese breakfast. They serve this menu on Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 11:30.

They offer a wait list that you can join in their Maps listing when they are busy. We got here at 9:30 and it was fairly quiet. We got a table for eight people and everybody parked right in front of the restaurant but by the time I left at 11:00, it was a very full restaurant with people waiting outside.

First thing you should do when you get to your table is to select what you're going to order then go up to the counter and order. If you have a larger group like we did, everybody can go up and order what they would like, the restaurant will split the bill when it's time to pay.

Once you are done ordering you can return to your seats at your table and before you know it, your food will start appearing. It only took about 5 to 10 minutes after the first order was put in for the food to start arriving at our table. Each dish looking better than the previous one!.

The advantage in going with a group is that you get to try out a lot more items. We ordered a bunch of things for the table and everybody got an individual main dish. I would be very hard-pressed to select one item as my favorite but I think the main dish I ordered was really delicious dish and something I had never tried. I will order it again.

Things we ordered that I would 100% recommend: 1 Peppery Kurobuta Charcoal Bao (The charcoal makes it a very interesting color, not quite black but almost.), an order of them comes with two and the bao are quite large. Soft fluffy dough with a good size pork sausage filling. 2 Sloppy Explosion Pancake, VERY sloppy but sooo good. 3 Turnip Cake Fries. These were absolutely delicious. A mashed daikon radish that is formed into nice fat fries that are pan fried in such a way that the exterior forms a crisp crust around the pillowy soft filling. Much better than any potato fries I've ever had. 4 Spicy Red Oil Mini Wontons with Youtiao. The wontons are filled with a shrimp mixture and then served in a bowl floating in the red chili oil sauce. Eaten by themselves, the red chili oil wontons are spicy. That's where the Youtiao comes in. This is also commonly called a Chinese donut. They are donut like in that the dough is fried in a bar shape. That's where the similarity ends. These are not sweet at all. They're served with this dish so that you can soak up some of that sauce and bring the heat down a little. It's a delicious combination and I ate every single bite! 5 LV Choice Pocket Pie. A starter for the table, flaky and cut into triangles. 6. Honey, Jasmine green tea. Abc a crisp and refreshing green tea beverage with Jasmine floral notes. Very nice accompaniment to the meal. 7 Minced Pork Rice. We ordered a couple for the table so everyone could try. It was a hit!

We left promising to meet up here again!!! Highly recommended!“

“Awesome service great drinks and chill atmosphere 👍🏼“

“I accidentally placed my order at the wrong location online, but the staff were super helpful and quickly rearranged it for me. The service was smooth and friendly. The food itself was really delicious — fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth trying. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious Gourmet Burgers!“

“I have tried the tea and it's one of the kind, price is so reasonable for a large size, you need to try when you are around the area, words can't describe until you have tasted the tea and judge for yourself.... highly recommended.“

“This restaurant is a neighborhood family restaurant, in a location not depending on foot traffic. Despite its name, it offers an extensive Taiwan style menu besides dumplings. Service is friendly and efficient. It's menu items are reasonably priced, and good portions.“

“I am only rating the popcorn chicken. It’s legit. There’s a wait because it was made fresh and they did provide a warning. It was good. Juicy and for a walk around snack to share between people….it works. I’ll take this snack over the pretzel. However, I can’t provide an opinion on the other items.“
