Taiwanese Restaurants near Studio City, CA

“Everything I’ve had here is the best version I’ve had of that dish. Mapo tofu (and its amazing over fries), dan dan noodles, beef noodle - it’s all amazing. More people need to come here and support this amazing local food joint. Everything on the menu comes vegan or has an egg option (but vegan is default). Updated from previous review on 2026-09-12“

“Despite the gluten-free options listed, I was informed by staff that due to their small kitchen this restaurant is NOT safe for those with celiac/true gluten allergies. That said, my family enjoyed the unique menu, especially the brussel sprouts.“

“So good!!! Amazing. Love the food. The bok choy pot stickers OOOF! The best. 💜💜💜👑👑👑🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽💞💞💞💝💝👨‍❤️‍👨🧡“

“Friend found this Taiwanese food spot near the Convention Center, which worked out for a quick dinner before the KCON concert. Not quite your usual Taiwanese comfort food restaurant, but food-wise, it's close enough. I do see this being a convenient and nice dining location for those living in downtown LA.

So you order and pay first, and then take your number to a seat of your choice. Other than your food being brought to you, everything else is self-serve, from picking out your table, getting cutlery and water, etc. You also might want to have your party all here if you want to sit together to eat. Our other half of the group was still on their way, so my friend and I just ordered first and dined at a table for two.

I picked their minced pork on rice ($12) and passion fruit tea ($4.25 with no refills). My friend ordered the wonton noodle soup and I got to try some of hers. I liked what we both ordered and can confirm it's worth ordering again.

I walked over from the convention center so not quite sure on the parking options, other than street parking and the random parking lot / structure you'll find around DTLA.“

“Our new local watering hole with a great selection at the bar and DELICIOUS eats!“

“Great food, location and service“

“I sampled their famous xiao long bao, delicious dumplings, savory fried rice and garlic string beans. Each dish was a taste experience, from the delicious dumplings in broth to the perfectly seasoned fried rice. The service is great and the atmosphere is inviting. Don't miss this place for authentic Taiwanese cuisine and unforgettable flavors. It has the taste of home.“

“I came for the beef noodle soup and wasn't disappointed. The broth was rich and comforting, while the beef was tender enough to cut with a spoon. I thought the portion of noodles could have been slight bigger specially for the price. Still, the flavors are good enough that I'd come back and try some of the other dishes“

“We had a wonderful dining experience at this Santa Monica spot! The ambiance was fantastic, and the staff was exceptionally professional, welcoming everyone with a warm greeting right at the door.
​Our server was fantastic—she took the time to explain the menu and gave great recommendations. We started with the lychee martini, followed by the cucumber 🥒 salad, chicken dumplings, vegan spicy wontons, string bean with garlic and noodles with sesame sauce. Every dish was delicious, with high-quality ingredients and generous, shareable portions.
Finally dessert we ordered Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao.
​I highly recommend checking this place out!“

“Anyone who rates this less than 5 stars is lying. This place is perfect. Super fast service, you get your food within minutes of ordering and the line moves fast. I have tried every single thing on the menu and there wasn't a single item that wasn't a perfect 10/10. So flavorful, you can't go wrong with whatever you order.“

“So glad we stumbled across Dan Modern on our last night in L.A. Matt our waiter was spot on with his recommendations, every dish was bang on! Amazing flavours, fresh ingredients, good wine and the house dish Three Cup Chicken is a must try. If I could make 1 suggestion, dim the lighting a little set the mood a bit more, that’s could just be a me thing. Thanks for an amazing feast, we will definitely be back! Cheers“

“We went on a Saturday at 3pm. Service was very friendly and attentive. Food came out fast.

We had the Dan Dan noodles with extra beef, shrimp fried rice, sesame noodles with pork, and pan fried dumplings. Dan Dan noodles & fried rice were amazing. Sesame noodles were alright and dumplings were pretty good. Would 100% come back for the noodles and fried rice, super yummy. Would recommend!“
