About Formosa Bakery & Kitchen

Formosa Bakery & Kitchen is a hidden gem offering a variety of Taiwanese and Asian-inspired dishes. This carry-out only spot has a menu posted outside or available to view while the chef works on other orders. The menu features Americanized Asian dishes, Taiwanese street foods, dim sum, bakery sweets, and fusion foods. The chef prides themselves in using fresh, flavorful, and authentic ingredients. Popular items include BBQ pork buns, pork floss and green onion bun, Taiwanese cold noodles with chicken, fried pancake with pork, and pork and preserved egg congee. Despite the lack of signage, the chef is always available to take orders and cater to customers' needs. Customers praise the authentic flavors and good ingredients, describing the food as really delicious. The owner, a seasoned chef from Taiwan, manages the place mostly alone, handling orders, cooking, and packing, which can sometimes make her seem overwhelmed during busy times. The restaurant used to be part of the Formosa restaurant on the hill, but it closed after the land was used to build a hotel. Visitors recommend ordering ahead for pickup, especially for homemade meals to go. The place might be a little hard to find, situated behind what looks like a food truck depot area, but it’s worth seeking out for its tasty offerings. The mango smoothie is also noted for being super fresh and creamy with a unique flavor.

Lied to with no food! We placed an order on website and selected a pickup time later than ASAP. When we arrived a few minutes late since it didn't have a clear sign of location, many items unavailable

Incredible food and owner, highly recommended.

Some of the best Taiwanese food I've ever had and I've lived in San Francisco, NYC and Chicago. The food is cooked from scratch and with love. Everything we've had has been perfect.

I recommend calling the shop and letting them know when you'll be there. The owner and chef is just lovely.

The location (Fall 2022) is in an industrial park, seems to be where a lot of different food trucks cook. No seating inside...read full review

Delicious food at great prices. The owner is always working so hard and really seems to care about the quality and happy customers
