“Another authentic Taiwanese bento place located in San Jose area! Simple, no frills meal but represented traditional Taiwanese "bento box" style meals. Similar to Japanese bento boxes but Taiwanese preferred the bento to be hot so most of the items tends to be hot/warm.
Choice 4 side dishes plus an entree and there goes your quick meal for the day.
Cash or cards.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 admit I mostly came for the vegan braised pork rice and it did not disappoint. It was so so good.
I wish the green onion pancakes were vegetarian but I'm very excited to try the rest of the vegan menu and appreciate that they have it!“

“The atmosphere here is so traditional. I called the popcorn chicken and it was way too good - juicy and flavorful. Beef noodles portion is big with full of vegetables and meats but the soup is kinda normal to me. Highly recommend to try popcorn chicken here. Yummy!!
Ask them for the sweet and spicy sauce, that sauce is a really good compatible with both of my dishes.“

“Great food but can get busy - they need a bigger place with more workers“

“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.“
“Great spot for Chinese food in downtown San Jose. I've been to their Fremont location a few times, but I think this location is a bit better since the portions are bigger, and the food is a lot less oily. My personal go-to dish is the beef wrap and mapo tofu, both of which have been fresh, flavourful, and generously portioned everytime I've been here. Staff are polite and service is pretty quick. The restaurant itself is clean and can get pretty crowded during lunchtime. Overall, definitely worth going to this place.“

“Solid spot for Taiwanese food. Their treasure rice box and popcorn chicken are my go-to favourites, but their other items are really good too. Everything is fresh, flavourful, and well portioned. Definitely worth going to when looking for a quick bite.“

“Food is great. I like the Sausage fried rice here because the rice is actually on the drier side, which is how I like. Other places have good fried rice but the rice is always a little more moist. The restaurant is located inside Mountain View downtown so parking may be a challenge.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Got the popcorn chicken and oyster vermicelli to go. It takes 15-20 min to fulfill your order so be prepared to wait a bit.
There is a self service kiosk at the counter to order food and pay credit. You then get a receipt with a number. When your number is called, your order is ready for pick up. There’s a number display that’s easy to see what number is up. If you want to pay cash, you can’t use the self serve kiosk. Staff take your order instead.
There’s popcorn chicken has decent flavour but it is missing basil. That’s a staple for popcorn chicken. It would also be better if it came with some sort of dipping sauce like spicy mayo. The batter is good though and it’s not overly oily.
The oyster vermicelli has good flavour. It only has 4 small oysters. I asked for extra cilantro and there were 3 pieces of cilantro, how is that extra? Still a good dish but would have been even better with more cilantro.
Both dishes came out to $20 so not a horrible price.“

“A cozy authentic Taiwanese restaurant in an area decimated by a declining Taiwanese population. This is an absolute gem, the cook should be commended!!
Southland taste recently closed ending 2 different families owning a south bay institution of Taiwanese food. If you are craving that taiwanese omlette rice or minced pork over rice I can vouch!
Wa shi Daiwan Lang. You can trust me if you are a Taiwanese foodie.
Omg update 5/15/25

Cmere trust. Eat. Profit
Its between Old Republic Title and Chicago Title near Peets coffee, across the street from Jakes!
Re: negative reviews are poorly written and lack any thoughtfulness.
I've been to Taiwan 7 times in the last few years as well as am familiar when Cupertino was taiwanese before all the taiwanese, Koreans and Japanese fragmented left the area in large numbers or moved abroad.
You have to understand that the palate of people that enjoy other DIFFERENT Chinese cuisines will never agree with another Chinese cuisine, same with folks that hate on legitimate American Chinese food which is its own cuisine, there's British Chinese cuisine, Malaysian, Indonesian, Singaporean, Venezuelan Chinese, Chilean, Mexican Chinese etc.
Anything below a 4 is a garbage review with no effort they're either attack reviews from competitors or people that just can't appreciate the mom and pop style of taiwan.
Book a ticket (Taiwan) and eat in Tainan, Khaosiung, Taipei, changhua, jeelung and other places and you'll see what I mean.“
