Taiwanese Restaurants near West Covina, CA

“Thank you for providing great customer service.“

“I did order online and pick up! I got their friend shrimp and egg chive pockets and they were just to die for! So freaking good! The veggie potstickers were good too, not too exciting though. My husband loved bao buns he got. Would love to come again and actually dine in!“

“100% recommended, food is delicious“

“The dumplings are so good!!“

“The staff are nice & the food is good.“

“If you’re craving an authentic bowl of Beef Noodle Soup, this is it. The broth is infused with peppercorns, giving it an incredibly bold, numbing aroma that takes me straight back to those nostalgic Taiwanese military village (Juancun) flavors. It’s rich, punchy, and unlike any other broth in LA!
I love that the Lu Wei (braised delicacies) is served as its own standalone dish. You can really taste the mastery of seasoning in every bite of the beef and tofu.
To round it all out, you have to order the Radish Chicken Soup. It’s crystal clear and carries that perfect, natural sweetness from the daikon. It’s the ultimate palate cleanser after the tingly heat of the beef noodles. Perfectly balanced and so comforting!“

“One of my top favorite Taiwanese restaurants in Arcadia! Thankfully, they finally switched to plastic containers and proper dishes for dine-in. I love their strawberry milk tea!! Although they don't allow you to add boba, it still tastes amazing.

5 star service too! Quiet area during lunch

P.S. if you let the tomato sauce beef dry noodle soak in the sauce overnight it will change your life. Thank me later“

“Tastes, feels, and smells like Formosa. Took relatives here from Taiwan who agree that the food is equal to if not better than many places on the island. Ppl complaining about service and sanitary… this is exactly what an authentic Taiwanese eatery is like. It’s a bit hidden but one of the best esp for stinky tofu, beef noodle, and rice dishes.“

“This is the Taiwanese style Chinese food. Some dishes are cooked to perfection. Can't really name the dishes though, the waitress recommended them to us. They have several core dishes and must try. I think the price is reasonable. I highly recommended.“

“I been coming here for a year now happy to see dine in is open again, amazing beef noodle soup and I yummy fruit tea. Very worth the price and family own business that has amazing customer service 10/10“

“Love the mango snow. Try it you won't be disappointed.“

“Good amount of parking. Clean interior with plenty of seating. Server, Alicia, was very nice and accommodating. Ordered Popcorn chicken rice with egg, twice cooked pork, and shrimp fried rice. All the dishes were really good and also got a free tofu dish since our order was more than $50. Would come back again!“

“Classic Taiwanese food. They hit me with the Mandarin the minute I stepped inside and I was totally unprepared for that to happen but it was chill.

Service is very fast. The price is not super cheap but it is reasonable. We got 麻辣豆乾 (spicy bean curd), 香腸 (Sinbala sausage), 炸排骨乾麵 (fried pork chop dry noodles), and 扣肉飯 (pork belly rice). The portions are pretty large. The pork chop was dry but crispy, so I have mixed feelings about that one.

They take card if you order more than $30 worth of food. I’d love to come back to try their shaved ice because I hear it’s better than Meet Fresh!“

“I have gotten takeout from here before but actually got to dine in recently when I came here for lunch on a weekday with some coworkers. It was full inside but luckily, a table was leaving so we got our table without a wait.

We ordered the Beef Rolls, Signature Green Onion Bread, Stir Fried Onions and Beef, and some vegetables. It is a small restaurant that is family style so only one server and the food wasn't served that quickly especially since it was full inside. The food was ready around 20 minutes after ordering.

The portions are all decent and looked delicious. The beef rolls were very good, crispy skin and not stingy with the beef inside. The signature green onion bread was also very good, texture is the perfect balance of hard and soft. The only thing was that the vegetables and the stir fried beef was oily. Both tasted good but very oily.

Overall, still a great place to go with friends or family. I recommend the beef rolls. They tasted very authentic.“

“Just found this place! OMG the popcorn chicken is one of the best I've ever had! Its amazingly crispy and tasty! And very well portioned! We also ordered the minced meat rice it was a nice portion and very affordable. Definitely coming back soon! Can't wait to try more items“

“Very happy to eat authentic Taiwanese food!
Bringing the complete taste of Taiwan to LA, the food was very touching~
Ban Niang has a very forthright southern personality?I felt like I was back home for a second
The drumstick rice and salty crispy chicken are both delicious?“

“Solid beef noodle restaurant with a simple menu and great food. The atmosphere is very cozy and you are treated well like family. The food come out very fresh and was super satisfying on a rainy day. Quick, filling, great value, and no frills.“

“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

“we got our rolls within about 5 minutes of ordering and they were great. even cold the roasted duck wrap smacked and are fairly filling. found out about this place through a friend of mine and now recommending it to everyone.

Vegetarian options: there's a veggie wrap“

“正宗台灣味～店家也很客氣“

“I always enjoy the Beef Stew Noodle and Popcorn Chicken. The service is also good.“

“My family and I live this place. The food is fresh and delightful. The only thing I would say in a different light is that I wish they had more staff. The service is good however, sometimes it takes a while for your server to cover to you due to understaffed. Other then that this place is one of our faves.“

“I love it here, especially for the drinks. Their cocktails are a hidden gem and taste better than those in DTLA. For example, I casually bring up a Green Point with my friend, and the mixologist instantly recognizes and knows how to create it. Will definitely come back for more.“

“Nice and casual spot for breakfast, offering lots of Taiwanese classic foods. The items are simple and made well. Open early so popular for breakfast. You order at the counter or on their website and the food comes out quickly. Staff are friendly and all of the utensils are disposable for quick dining.“

“服務很好，菜色多，又好吃！“

“I Couldn't find a solid review to help me order but its so close to home i took a chance. Saw a Bulgogi beef on the menu which is a familiar Dish to me so i quickly ordered That and decided to sit down. A couple of minutes later, and i have a Nice Healthy bowl of Rice Topped with a heap of BEEF! It was delicious! Thank YOU!“

“My cousin specifically likes their $9.99/lb Hog foot (to go cold/warm up at home), and $13+ Taiwanese Bento boxes to-go or dine there. Small shop, not good foe big parties, no restroom. I was told the to-go drinks could be very sweet, so not for me. Hole in the wall, Taiwanese joint. Hog/Pork Feet cold/to-go is a must here!!! Tks to my cousin on this find.

My cousin's fav bento box is $14 Beef Shank and Chicken, and her SO favorite is $14 Salty Duck. She mentioned that Smoked Duck is heard to be good too. She ordered me 2lbs of the Hog Foot dish and it was delicious! It come with sauce, ginger and cilantro which I didn't need but the SO enjoyed. It's a good snack or side to have around.

They sell other side dishes, and frozen dumplings to goodies. Looking forward to coming back to try their bento box there.“

“wonderful drinks and great service!!“

“If you haven’t tried Taiwanese popcorn chicken before, this is the perfect place to start. Their popcorn chicken is authentic, with a crispy, golden exterior and a juicy, flavorful interior that won’t disappoint. There are also some simple tables and chairs set up inside, providing a space to enjoy your meal. The shop is located inside Secoya Market and sells traditional Taiwanese street food. They also offer Japanese sushi but I haven't had the chance to try it.

Parking: There is plenty of parking outside the Secoya Market.“

“We ordered a ton of food, and every dish was seriously yummy! The staff hooked us up with some great recommendations too—the stir-fried beef was super tender, and the chow mein was packed with goodies. Loved it all! The mung bean soup? Perfect for beating the summer！ prices is friendly…“

“The food was delicious, portions are very generous with good prices. I had the Mango slushee with boba and it was so tasty. Next time I will definitely try another one of their slushee drinks.“

“great food, healthy options, good service“

“This was extra special day Mama time sweet day! because it was our mama time while the kids were in school—a chance to slow down, catch up with a friend, and enjoy a peaceful meal together. We loved this cute little corner we discovered in Walnut. The space is cozy, clean, and thoughtfully arranged—perfect for relaxing and chatting without feeling rushed.

The owner was incredibly kind, welcoming, and polite. The hospitality really stood out and made us feel at home.
Delicious small bite & beautifully prepared dish! We tried the mini yubu sushi, which were fun, flavorful, and perfectly portioned for sharing.
The donburi bowl with seared salmon was so good—fresh, satisfying, and beautifully balanced. We also enjoyed the sweet shrimp & tobiko combination, which tasted very fresh and light.

Everything felt small enough to sample more, yet still filling and satisfying. Wanted to tried 9 yubu sushi. Owner said stop tried 4!! Too much food for beautiful ladies to handle LoL 😆 it is true. Honestly, we wanted to try even more items, but our stomachs were already full!

Looking Forward to Trying More Next Time😋

There are so many items on the menu we’re excited to come back for—especially the specialized sushi selections and the Chef’s Combo Rice Bowl. This is definitely a place worth returning to when you want thoughtful food, a calm atmosphere, and friendly service.

Such a lovely spot for a casual meet-up, a quiet lunch, or foodie exploring. Just a recommendation bigger tables for people who want to order more food and for bigger group size. The only suggestion I would appreciate so I can bring more friends over. Next time I’ll try different drinks. I thought mine was a little bit sweet. With mango and matcha tea.
Highly recommend — we will absolutely be back!“

“Simple Taiwanese lunch bentos, generally $11 each (since March 2024 I believe), cash only. Check the Facebook page for the daily menu. There is one option each for chicken, pork, or fish. Additionally, I believe you can call in ahead of time to order a fried pork chop (no walk-in orders for that). Each bento comes with a small soup. Flavors are on the lighter side; if you prefer stronger flavors, you might not enjoy these bentos.“

“This place has a fun atmosphere. Attentive and friendly staff, simple menu. Not expensive. And if its busy dont worey the line moves fast. Very well done Chinese noodle soups with a Taiwanese flavor. and pot stickers in a bao bun? It's a must try. Don't forget the honey green tea too- it will keep you awake.“

“God! It's a touching taste
We came to play from AZ and were recommended by relatives and friends to try it out.
Shacha water spinach and mutton is simply the taste that I miss in my memory
The scallion chicken is super tender, the oyster cakes are also delicious, and the kids love the sausages.
But the shredded ginger intestine is not sour enough, and the intestine is a bit too soft after cooking.
What’s even more touching is that if you spend $30 or more, you’ll get a free Taiwanese beer!
It’s just a quick-service restaurant!
Fast food and great service!“

“Not sure if that was a tea place for me. Firstly, it was really sweet. Even though you can choose your own preference of sweetness ( I chose 50%) my tea tasted overly sweet. I got the fruit tea. A different and distinct flavor from other fruit teas I’ve had. Both drinks tasted heavy on sweetness despite the level being 50% and other 25% . However, I would give this place another try since the flavors were distinct and the place was neat and clean.

It is a self serve and not to hang out tea place. So just order and go.“

“Very delicious Love their Lamb“

“Happy to see that Cowboy Cafe is back!

We came a few minutes after 5 pm on Saturday, right before the dinner rush. They have 2-top, 4-top and 6-top tables and booths, so if you're in a larger group, you'll have to split up your group. We got the second to last open table for 2.

Our order taker was very helpful, urging us to get our order in before the group of 10 gets theirs in. We got the rib eye hot plate ($19.99) and filet mignon hot plate ($24.99), both cooked medium with black pepper sauce and served with spaghetti. The hot plate includes a drink too, so we picked the black tea (opted out of the $1 upgrade). Everything was so good. Our favorite of the two was definitely the filet mignon!

The menu is all by QR code. Parking is plentiful in the large lot.“

“Bought frozen food from here 1st time. Great food. Hope they have more options in frozen items in the future. I will definitely buy more in the future. One suggestion: Vacuum seal bag must be sealed securely especially the soup base. My beef stew soup and chicken noodle bags are leaking 😕. Luckily I have ziplock bag on each item before I put in my freezer. Otherwise my refrigerator will be all wet after I defrost my item in my refrigerator.“

“I always enjoy the Beef Stew Noodle and Popcorn Chicken. The service is also good.“

“Love the chops a lot! But the woman server is horrible, she was very angry and taunt us because we didn't order as much as she want. She kept talking loudly about this and showed a long face even we ordered additional food afterwards, which ruined our whole experience. The men owner is good and nice. Hope I won't meet the woman again, maybe she's the owner who knows“

“it was good,......................“

“Unexpectedly good personal shabu shabu here in this little cafe! The portion is very large for the price. It's already cooked and ready to eat. Meat and veggies are very tender and the broth is perfect. I think other dishes are just OK. Kung pao chicken was not very authentic. Tea is quite strong, but also quite impressive about the scent. Boba was less than what I expected from a place known for boba.“

“great taste, comfort food and great service.“

“I ve been coming here for a long time. They are reasonably priced and very consistent. I notice they include more fresh produce in their drinks: using real passionfruit in their passionfruit green tea. Sometimes finding what you want on the kiosk can take longer time than you'd hope. Great teahouse overall .“

“I’ve been on a Taiwanese food binge lately and have been searching everywhere for some good, authentic Taiwanese dishes. This little mom-and-pop, hole-in-the-wall spot really hit the mark. The food tastes just like what I’d expect from back home or from the night markets in Taiwan.

I tried the stinky tofu (a must-have for any true Taiwanese food lover), the pork chop rice, and a few other dishes—and every bite was delicious, flavorful, and comforting. The portions are generous without being overwhelming, and the seasoning is on point.

The owners are super friendly and welcoming, which makes the dining experience feel even more like you’re visiting family. The restaurant shares a plaza with other shops, so there’s plenty of parking available, which is a big plus.

A couple of tips: it’s best to bring cash, as not everything is set up for cards. Also, they do have a restroom on site, which is always nice for a small place like this.

Overall, this is the kind of spot you want to keep coming back to—and the kind of hidden gem you almost don’t want to share so it stays special. Definitely one of my new go-to Taiwanese comfort food spots!“

“Beef soup was very good, nailed the mala without making it too spicy for the kid in the group. Stir fry chicken noodles were good but 75% cabbage. Fried rice was great but the pork chop was only OK, very small and fatty. Beef rolls also not great, they were very dry.“

“Ordered shrimp chive pork dumplings and wonton noodle soup with pork & shrimp.
Dumpling tasted very fresh and juicy.
Wonton soup with noodles was Ok although as pictured the soup dumplings are quite large.
Ordered to go.
$25.29
Definitely a must try if in the area.
Enjoy!!“
