Food, drinks and vibes are 5/5! All staff are super friendly and I would definitely come back. Top favorites were the honey walnut shrimp toast and bread pudding !!! Took me back to my childhood

We came here for the first time to celebrate our anniversary, and I can’t recommend it enough. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and while the menu is on the smaller side, there were more dishes we wanted to try than we could order. The Honey Szechuan Chicken Wings are an absolute must, perfectly triple-fried, coated in a flavorful spice blend, and served with house-made ranch. The other dishes we had were just as fantastic: gravy noodles (our second favorite, so creamy), cheese bread, street corn, and pork neck. Each one was packed with flavor yet distinct from the others. We’ll definitely be back for more dinners as the seasonal items change, and brunch is already on our list. Can’t wait to return!

I had just gotten back from Taipei and will be arriving to tell of the salad I had. It is excellent. I’ve tried every single Taiwanese restaurant in northern California, and they all are insufficient in flavor. Except for this places salad! The arranging of fried turnips with the salad is an taste I recommend to all, particularly any of Taiwanese heritage.

I really like the vibes at this restaurant! They're always playing some old school movies above the bar and it's not too loud. The food is interesting in that it blends a lot of different cultures together sometimes. I'm not sure how I feel about it overall but it is generally very good! Their food can be a bit experimental though so definitely check the menu beforehand if you can

It's ok. Flavours were there, presentation is on point, but incredibly tiny portions of food for exorbitant prices. Service is top-tier and the atmosphere is wonderful. Not a bad spot for a small group of friends to enjoy some post-dinner bites over drinks, but definitely don't come here for actual dinner unless you're looking to thin down your wallet.
Had quite the spread of their menu. Nothing I would suggest in particular. Everything tastes as you expect, nothing more and nothing less. The one thing I would note is they like to use an abundance of sugar in all their dishes. Every tastes ever so slightly sickly sweet.
Overall, had a decent time.

How could we have not gone to Piglet & Co earlier? I have no idea. The only thing I can think of is the location. We typically turn onto Mission Street a half block after Piglet & Co - thereby missing an incredible restaurant. The food was incredible - we could have eaten everything on the menu. As we were heading to the Alamo for a movie, that was the only thing that constrained our food choices - how much could we eat in an hour. Definitely worth multiple visits in the future!!

The food was actually SO GOOD. I’m Taiwanese so I’d know. You know when you stop talking to focus on eating because the food is so good? It was like that.
We got the gravy noodles (so good!!), oyster fried rice (pretty good), pork saam (absolutely must get! was the star dish), assorted pickles (will skip next time), bean lu rou (just okay, wouldn’t get again) and honey walnut shrimp toast (must get!!).
Also got the bread pudding dessert which was really yummy as well. Best meal I’ve had in a while and would bring my Asian parents (I don’t usually praise food). Absolutely will come again :)

Fun vibe, and I appreciate what they’re trying to do in modernizing some classic Taiwanese dishes. While a couple of the dishes were pretty good, the rest didn’t do it for me. A lot of it was pretty heavy, while much of Taiwanese cuisine has more subtle flavors. It made me crave the originals instead.

We loved our dinner at Piglet & Co. The space has great energy - diners are clearly enjoying themselves - there is a warm vibe. We were greeted by the friendly co-owner who was helpful guiding us through dinner selection choices. Everything was delicious - especially the prawn & pork toast with honeyed walnuts. Also, we highly recommend the turnip garnished salad with mixed greens and radish shavings, and the pork lettuce wraps which are served with a mustard slaw and an aioli.
Have you ever experienced the sadness that comes from a disconnect between what you hoped for and what you received? That describes our experience with Piglet & Co. The service was bad, the food ok, and the resulting experience deeply disappointing. I had read the gushing reviews across multiple platforms. I heard from friends who had dined there. All were complimentary. So I was very excited to get a reservation on a quiet Sunday, even though the only available slot was for bar seating, which is not my preference. We arrived five minutes early and found ourselves standing with two other couples, who had been waiting for more than five minutes. The restaurant was mostly empty, and there was a sign saying they were taking walk-ins, so we assumed we could get a table instead of the bar. We waited for another five minutes, with no front-of-house making an appearance. I finally went to the person behind the bar, who said they would be out shortly. Ten minutes later, we were seated at the bar, after being told that the tables were completely booked. The empty tables never filled. The waitstaff was brusque - apparently annoyed that I had sought out attention previously. We were asked if we wanted still or sparkling; I said sparkling while my partner said still. The waitstaff brought over still. I asked again for sparkling; she took away my still water and brought the sparkling, all with an air of annoyance. We ordered two dishes - the honey walnut shrimp and pork toast and the confit pork belly. Both were ok. The toast was extremely greasy and the only implement provided was a set of chopsticks. The flavor was interesting, but it would have been more enjoyable if served with a fork and knife. The pork belly was tender but overly sweet. The surrounding vegetables and rice were fantastic, which saved the overall rating. The service was surprisingly bad and disappointing. We will not be back.

Went for brunch and everything we ordered was delicious and I would recommend: Honey Walnut Shrimp and Pork Toast, Lu Rou Fan, Loco Moco, French Toast (make sure to add the Salted Egg Custard topping!)

Amazing service and wish we could have ordered the whole menu. Standouts are the wings, honey walnut shrimp toast and ribs and house sambal! Can't wait to return.

My wife, our two boys, and I came in with a reservation at 5:15 on a Saturday. We ordered a lot of different items off the menu, including dessert, and every single item was delicious. The standouts for me were the shrimp toast and the scallop. The boys liked the pork noodles and cheese toast (and the Chinese donut Sunday dessert of course), and my wife really liked the cauliflower. Also, order the pickle party. You won’t be disappointed.
The restaurant itself is laid back and our service was great. We’ll definitely be back.
