Formosa Bakery & Kitchen

Authentic flavors and good ingredients! Really delicious!

I just can't believe she is a one-woman show! She does all the taking orders, cooking, and packing. I find that sometimes she gets a bit overwhelmed when its busy.

She use to have the Formosa restaurant on the hill but they kicked her out because they used the land to build a hotel. It's a bit of a shame.

It’s pick up only!
Recommend order ahead (calling), because if you pick up I see people still wait quite a while outside. She request you wait outside for the food as it’s a kitchen inside. Menu is posted outside. She can be a little short with you but some of the food is great. Would recommend the pork cutlet and green onion scallion pancake, honestly as good as some places in Taiwan. I would skip the bbq pork because it’s tough and you can stop by a local Asian grocery store and get that fresh for a better price.

Some of the best food in Boulder, tastes like real home cooked food because it is. 10/10. MUST try when coming to Boulder.

This is not an actual restaurant, it's located in one of the larger commissary units area set as a " kitchen " to operate food for pick-up only. Unsanitary food handling and equipment. Served pre-made frozen food, microwaved when comes ordered. The pork rice was soggy and overly seasoned. dumplings and baked items both textured and tasted " frozen". My wife even got food poisoning afterward. Do not recommend it.

Pre-made so-so quality bento style food. A few items were out. End up ordering what was available and waited long time in the kitchen. Noticed flies in the prep area, and food was prepared without gloves.

Don’t let the look of this location deceive you. It may be a bit difficult to find off the beaten road, but this place is simply a jem. The mango smoothie was super fresh and delicious with a unique, creamy flavor.

The egg tarts are just like mom’s, and the chiffon is PERFECT! As are the legit Taiwanese dishes; I’m from Taiwan, super picky about it, and literally just got back from a trip there so my taste buds are sharpened…

DEFINITELY get the braised pork rice. It’s better and more authentic than the versions at the commercialized Taiwanese restaurants in Boulder (which are still good but aren’t *grandma* good and it’s a significant difference)

Owner is the sweetest; she treated us like family! We ended up staying just to chat for a while, and the conversation was as nourishing as the food ?

AMAZING Taiwanese and Chinese food. Home cooked meals with restaurant level quality and flavor. This will easily become a once-a-week takeout order for us. They are OPEN permanently! Order online for pick up.

My husband picked up a few items from here (dumplings, pancake wrap, sesame chicken) for dinner, and it was all great! You can tell that Nancy takes a lot of pride in what she’s doing, and she cooks with love. So glad we found this place — we will definitely be back soon!

This is a ghost kitchen setup so don't be deterred by the lack of signage or walking into what looks like a kitchen. The cook can be found in the back doing what she does best. Just walk in and find her.She makes traditional Taiwanese and Chinese cuisine to-go or catered. She does a great job sourcing her ingredients, avoiding many processes sugars and flowers or dyes. Large selection of savory dishes and baked desserts.

First time here and everything was delicious. I simple cannot wait for another pineapple bun We're vegetarian and there were several veggie options marked quite well on the menu, and the owner was very veggie conscious when we asked ? We also got mapo tofu and sesame vegetable cold noodle, and they were soo good! Seems very authentic, certainly DELICIOUS, and I'll 100% be backFYI, they're take out or pickup only and in the building behind the food trucks

What a wonderful, authentic Taiwanese restaurant! As vegetarians, we loved the Mapo Tofu and the sesame cold noodle. We also had a pineapple bun and it was delicious! Super hard to find so make sure you use the address on Google. Nancy's food is amazing and you can taste the authenticity!

The food at Formosa is fantastic! My group got mapo tofu and eggplant dishes and they were both delicious. My favorite part were the baked goods though! The chiffon cake was light and not too sweet and the Taro bun was one of the best I've ever had!The restaurant is a little out of the way and doesn't have seating available, but the food is fantastic. I definitely recommend trying it out.
