The food was really not authentic at all, pork chop too sweet, crappy side dishes, braised pork all lean meat. I’d go to chick and tea or bento express or bentolicious for better Taiwanese bento.

I knew this place through the name Shilin. After its rebranding, I’m glad the taste is the same. We ordered one Matcha Fresh Milk and one Popcorn Chicken. Their popcorn chicken was unbeatable. The matcha fresh milk was also very good. At least, I thought it was real matcha flavor.

Next time, I will try other dishes when we go picnic

Guys, this is the spot.. 1 of the best spot in NorCal.. Thin crisp batter, tender & juicy meat, and fresh crispy basils. Definitely coming saving this spot

My go-to Taiwanese restaurant. Their foods are authentic with good serving. I like their Braised Pork Chop Bento, Oyster Omelette, Taiwanese Tempura (the best!!), and Papaya Milk. Sometimes, we just order the food and go to San Mateo Central Park to picnic.

Very tasty bento box with popcorn chicken! They were large portion sizes that I could have shared this with someone! It also came out relatively quickly within 10 min. Overall recommend! Since a lot of the sit-down restaurants in downtown are packed on the weekends, this was a nice place to not really have to wait.

Whenever we missed Taiwanese food, we came here! Didn’t know they have changed their name already but the food is still delicious and they have more bento choices now. Nice to have them here in the San Mateo!
