Most authentic Taiwanese breakfast! If you are not sure if it’s worthy of trying, my answer is yes!! My husband and I arrived on Monday before 1PM, but we were told later that they sold out everything before 1PM the previous day, and they close at 2PM, so we were pretty lucky! The restaurant was still busy when we got there, and we were greeted by three different servers upon arrival. They all nicely asked us to wait just a bit for them to clean out a table. We were seated very quickly, and the menu was on the table already for us to review. We are from San Diego and the last Taiwanese restaurant in town closed during COVID, so we were eager to try out many items on the menu. We ordered two salted soy milk, one without dried meat floss as I’m vegetarian. The first two salted soy milk both contained meat floss and when I told the lady, she was so apologetic and went back immediately to make me another one without dried meat floss. Talking about professionalism and great customer service! The owner came out and checked every table multiple times to make sure all customers were happy with their meals. She’s a very warm and welcoming lady and attended each table like family. Below is a long list of what we ordered haha: 1. Salted soy milk - love love love, we plan to go back on Friday and will reorder 2. egg cake with Chinese donut - my personal favorite 3. Green onion pancake with egg - also a yummy and very filling dish, but I personally prefer the egg cake with donut better 4. pickled cucumber - my husband couldn’t stop eating this 5. seasoned seaweed - it’s a bit too tough to my liking, but my husband like it 6. oyster omelet - a super traditional Taiwanese dish and I think the manager even came out to check who ordered it because I guess only those who know Taiwanese cuisine well appreciate this dish haha 7. Taiwanese temple meatball - also a super traditional Taiwanese dish and my husband’s favorite. He plans to order it again on Friday 8. Spicy beef noodle soup - my husband was already so full from all the dishes, but he still drank the soup because it was so delicious. The owner was so nice and gave us extra soup when we asked for a to-go box. The leftovers became his dinner that day I did notice a 15% gratuity automatically added to the bill. When the owner collected the signed receipts from the customers, she reminded each table that gratuity had already been added if customers added additional tips. She made sure customers didn’t add additional tips by accident. She explained the reason why she started adding of a gratuity automatically was because of a bad experience with a previous large group of customers. To protect her employees, she decided to add auto gratuity on the bills, and posted a notice at the restaurant entrance, so the customers were aware of the new policy. If customers aren’t comfortable with the 15% automatic tips added to their bills, they have a choice not to dine in. I understand this auto-gratuity for all bills is uncommon for Asian restaurants, but I also understand the owner’s perspective. And to be honest, I would tip them at least 15% anyway, because of the excellent food and service we received. I personally would definitely return whenever we are in Vegas, and we would highly recommend it to anyone who’s looking for an authentic Taiwanese breakfast place. Note: they close early if they are sold out, so if you are heading to the restaurant after 12 noon, I would highly suggest you call them to make sure the items you plan to order aren’t sold out yet ;)

Wonderful experience and the most authentic meal. Beef noodle soup was amazing. And the pork buns were the best we’ve ever had!

The food was amazing! The owner was so friendly and made wonderful recommendation. The noodle soup that her 91 year old grandma taught her to make was exceptional! Authentic flavors.

Tried the Spring Mountain Road location (they have 2 places). Ordered the zhajiang mein along with a cucumber salad appetizer. The zhajiang mein was nicely seasoned, although the noodles were slightly undercooked. It also came with a soy sauce egg. The cucumber salad was nicely refreshing.

We had the oyster omelette and it is too sweet, onion pancake with eggs and it hard, and the original tenon & beef noodles and it is disappointing. Better Taiwanese food elsewhere.
