Update 7/20/22: Had to get lunch here one last time before they close at the end of the month ? Got the pork chop bento and popcorn chicken, which were as good as I remember from the times I went weekly pre-covid.They make consistently great-tasting bentos. The space seems a little small at first, but they do have a seating area upstairs as well.

Sold on the Fried chicken bao and mala noodles and it’s what keeps me coming back! Noodles have a kick but so good. I’d skip on the pork belly bao but to each their own.

They make the best pork belly baos I've ever tried. Every time I visit Oakland, I have to get an order.I also recommend their fried pork chop bento, OMG so delicious

What a delicious meal that was & it was made fresh to order, outstanding . We had the fried cutlet bento box, also the Miso soup, ohhh so good full if flavour. We would definitely recommend this place, try it, please, you won't be disappointed!!!!

Very legit. Order online so you don’t have to wait!

Overall great friendly service, authentic flavors, decent prices, and a quaint upstairs eating area. I docked off one star because I was expecting the rice to be hot but it was only a tad warmer than room temp. :/ I still had a good overall experience. Would go there again.

My long search for authentic Taiwanese cuisine in the Bay Area is finally satisfied. Can’t believe I had never run across this place (actually I can, they used to only be open M-F during the afternoons catering to the downtown Oakland workforce; even now they aren’t open weekends).Have gone twice and generally been very pleased. Tried the beef noodle soup, the pork belly, the lu rou fan, a couple of the noodle dishes, both gua bao’s and the wontons and each bite reminded me of my culinary adventures in Taiwan. Oh and the soy milk was delicious!Stacy the owner is really sweet and also Taiwanese, enjoyed my brief conversation with her.I would highly recommend this spot for a quick bite, really delicious!

Saw a segment about this place on Check Please Bay Area, and was definitely very happy finally getting to try it. Solid meal for decent prices and generous portions. Am very much looking forward to eating their bento again. I did notice it was a bit tricky to find parking near them, but that shouldn't stop anyone from trying them. I'll have to try some of their tea options next time!

I got the pork chop, the taste is very good but it was soggy. I am looking forward to going back and trying the beef noodle soup
Their popcorn chicken is absolutely delicious ?. The box of chicken comes out piping hot (as in you can see the steam coming out). There were quite a lot of chicken in the box itself and it was very crunchy. I really liked how they had spices out for you to add more flavor to your liking.

The Handmade minced braised pork & Taiwan sausage plate are delicious! Perfect portion and sauce ?popcorn chicken is a must

I called my order in for pick up. The area does get busy and parking was difficult to find with all the construction in the area.The beef pancake roll was very good. It's not what I'm used to as other places I've gone and it was cheaper for a bigger roll but it was definitely tasty and I wouldn't mind paying that price to get it again. Also got the pork chop bones which was interesting in a good way. I would definitely get this again but next time I think I'll just walk over instead of trying to drive over.Pick up was easy you just walk in and I can't remember if I gave my name or what my order number was but he pulled it up right away I was able to pay for it and get out of there super quick.

I've seen this restaurant on my Google searches many times before but today is the first time I decided to come here. I ordered the pork belly Bao and my one regret is not eating their food sooner. I will definitely be back.
