Food is bad and oily, and dishes are served slowly. The only advantage is the restaurant opens early in the area.

Five stars for soy milk and fried dough. Salted fried chicken has large portion but not as good as I had in China. I think the chicken was not very fresh. Pickled cabbage was good. The staff was very nice.

Great bentos! I ordered 3 type of bentos and they are such good values. You get protein, a couple side dishes and veggies. The portions are large and the servers are super nice. I would definitely recommend here for a no frill lunch or dinner.

Located in the back of the Chinatown Plaza, this is a very busy and crowded Taiwanese restaurant that would make you think that something GREAT is about to be served... But an order of "Spice Beef Noodle" selection from the on-site menu was actually a SOUP. That said, a fair review of our dish showed a very flavorful but salty broth that contained a meager portion of noodles with ONLY 2 SMALL CHUNKS OF BEEF. At $ 14.99, this is a very poor value considering there was practically no beef in the order. We won't be trying them out again on our next trip to Las Vegas's superb Chinatown.

Stinky tofu has the real stink! Love it.Pork wonton soup was mediocre. Nice staff who took care of me.

Very disappointed. Waited for 40 mins. After ordered, waited another 15 mins and only to know they run out of soy milk… it is extremely unorganized. I have to choose porridge instead. The staff don’t know what is for whom. I have to find the porridge and ask them whether it is mine. If you smell carefully, you can smell oily and rotten expired dishes… I really regret I picked this restaurant. Given such a bad experience, the price is not cheap at all. They charge 10 dollar for a simple porridge.

Came here with the family. Service is bad, they just don't pay attention and kept mixing up our order. Items were running out, some food was decent and others were poor. We waited in line and ordered at the front, 45 minutes in, we are still slowly getting our food. No water provided to any tables. I see people just waiting for their order to be taken even after 30 minutes. Vibes just suck because everyone is basically upset and the waitresses are disorganized. We had to check on our items several times. Literally watched my cousin slap a cockroach off the chair because it was crawling up. I wouldn't say im surprised, just really disappointed that this place has good ratings.If you want food specifics, pancake is not flakey just oily and flat. Beef roll is decent but meat is a little dry. Porridge... just don't get it. Tastes like water. XLB is ok. Fried stinky tofu according to the husband was good. Beef intestine was good. Soy milk not good.

Was craving for some warm Taiwanese breakfast and this place definitely hits the spot. We the savory soy milk which was perfect for the cold morning. We tried the stinky tofu which was nice and crispy but lacked sauce. The oyster omelet was not bad. The green onion pancake with egg was tasty but the texture was more soft than what I was use to. The food cane out quickly and the service was timely. We were there around 9am on a Saturday morning. The place did fill up as we were leaving.I will definitely go back to try some of their lunch dishes when I'm back in town. Definitely worth trying when you're in the mood for Taiwanese food.

I will definitely be returning here! The staff treated my table like family and were super welcoming. The food was incredible and you really get a bang for your buck as the portions are generous! The spicy chicken lunch bento box has sooo much included. The spicy beef noodle soup — the most tender/fall apart beef chunks. The ground pork with brown sauce and dry noodles hands down my absolute favorite. Easily the best I’ve had in the west coast so far! You also need to get the salt and pepper chicken to share! I completely forgot to take a picture of all the food as I was mesmerized and eager to taste. Guess I need to return again for picture proof ??♀️

Great to find this place as we were looking for a breakfast place in the fly. The soy milk is fresh and hot. The 油條(Chinese donut) was fresh out of the oil. The noodles were delicious too - nice with the savory taro. Happy to find some traditional Taiwanese breakfast! Low prices, nice servers, but a little hard to find as you have to go inside of a little mini-mall and walk around to the rear. Worth stopping by for a quick meal.
We visited this restaurant because they are now under new management and we were looking for something light for a snack.I was told this restaurant made Taiwanese oyster omelette. Of course I wanted to try them. There was a lot of the small fresh oysters in the omelette, there was bits of napa cabbage in the omelette. It was a very good omelette with the exception I felt they used too much tapioca in the omelette. I felt they could have used half of the tapioca and that would have been fine.I had the pork katsu curry. The pork was very good and moist in the middle also not overcooked. The curry was just okay, not great and not terrible but it was a bit too salty for my palate. My friend had the noodles with piggy intestines and they added some of the small oysters in it .We spoke to the new owner and he said the cook is planning to make some Taiwanese local snacks into rheir repertoire..

It’s was ok, ordered a bento box, Chinese fried donut and a 蚵仔大腸麵線. The 麵線 was good but bento box and the fried donut was soso. Fried donut was soggy and had them refried again. Bento box was average, seasoning was just okay. It was hot that day but they couldn’t turn up the AC case it was broken.Their cold soybean milk was really good and authentic

We came here for stinky tofu, they ran out somehow... i had the sweet and sour fish, it was good. The reason this is a four star review is because they ran out of the thing we came here for, Stinky tofu

Love this Taiwanese restaurant so much and although they only have one staff but he was warm and efficient Oyster Omelet - This is authentic and traditional omelet with special sauce you can taste the small oyster in side the omlete sooooo yummy Pork feet cut - Lu is one cook method that chinese people all use at home with many spice and soy sauce. It was soft but a little bit too salty. Pork intestine rice noodles - so great with warm soup with pork intestine. try this!!!

Chinese donut and fresh soy milk were great! Also the recommended beef roll was delicious too. Great food. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because we asked for extra napkins and waitress didn’t give it to us. We had to go ask at counter again. I would recommend just putting napkin dispensers on table.
