Went with friends, the food was good and the restaurant is decent. Food portion was sufficient, 7 of us ordered stinky tofu, oyster omelet, 3 cups sauce combo, Pomfret seafood & Taro Vermicelli, salty eggs with sponge gourd and seasonal greens. We were all full. It is a little distance drive for me to visit regularly. read more

I came here for a family style dinner here. The food here was surprisingly good. The portions here were huge but that was maybe due to the host and his selection on the menu. Seafood was surprisingly and some of the dishes had some Cantonese twists. There is a lot of Taiwanese food to choose from and the offerings are quite extensive. Overall I had a lovely time here and would come back again. read more

The food is so good! I love this place. Definitely will come back again. The owner Monica, whom is very friendly to all her customers. The servers are very tentative and provide a great service to all the restaurant patrons. read more

An authentic Taiwanese restaurant that is perfect for group or family! On our first visit we were trying to get lamb casserole but they sold out so we got ginger duck soup casserole instead. Me and my husband both are from Taiwan and we haven't have this type of hotpot since like forever so we totally forgot how it tasted like and apparently it's a hotpot that cooked with rice wine! I am currently pregnant so I can't really enjoy our dinner that night but it also means this restaurant is using real ingredients and recipe which stands for true Taiwanese food culture. So we decided to come back and try their lamb soup again. On our second visit we made a phone call to reserve a lamb soup and when we got into the restaurant we saw our table and sauce and burner was all set waiting for us. We ordered deep fried stinky tofu and lard over rice. Both were very delicious and satisfied. My mom said when she was a kid all she ate was lard over rice because they didn't have much money back then. This was my first having this dish and actually I don't mind eating this everyday! The rice is not sticky so every grain of rice is covered with sauce and very flavorful! The lamb soup texture is thick, cooked with many different herbs that could warm you up from inside. Casserole comes with vegetables and vermicelli. We also ordered extra meat. It's a lot of food for two of us! The owner is very enthusiastic, she likes to greet every tables from my two times visiting observation. Usually in a traditional Taiwanese restaurant the owner will like to treat their customers with biggest heart so instead of feeling like eating in a restaurant , it's more like eating in a family member's home kitchen. She recognized us and gave us Sakura shrimp with taro and peanuts as appetizer and grass jelly soup as dessert. I think both of them are not on the menu but they are so goooood!! Funny thing is I actually hate taro but I like this appetizer because the flavor balanced well and taro is not too overwhelming in this dish. Sometimes if they are full it could be a little bit loud cuz usually that means they have family groups and they are drunk haha. But if you want privacy for quality family dinner or business talk they also have a room for individual group customers. Passionate owner, great and authentic Taiwanese food, spacious and perfect for family! Plus parking is easy. read more

Service is a little slow. We had to ask for menu and water twice, but the preparation of food was fast. We ordered the black sesame kidney, oyster omelet, salty eggs with sponge gourds, Taiwanese assorted panfried noodles. In general, the foods are really delicious, although the taste is not 100% authentic. Maybe will go there another time to try different stuff! read more

Orange Bistro - Chinese Near Me - Alhambra, California

For the most part, the food was flavorful. The hakka stir fry with squid and chicken with 3 cups sauce are worth a try. On the other hand, the minced pork noodle is NOT recommended. For one thing, they used the same pork as the braised pork rice. Additionally, the noodles are BLAND, it had no flavor whatsoever. It wasn't even salty. The service could be better, as their wait staff was not quite sufficient, even though their dining room was not even half full. Overall, food was okay depending on what you order. Service was meh. The value was not that great if you factor in the price they charge for the food. In others, I do believe there are other better Taiwanese food options in the SGV area. read more

Love all the dishes we ordered and would like to come back to try more different dishes and desserts.

Another place recommended by Eater and this joint was a miss for me. We arrived on a Saturday at 1:30pm and the restaurant was pretty empty with two tables of people. We waited for a good 10 minutes and no one came to greet us. No waiter or waitress. I had to walk over the kitchen to get someone's attention. Here were the dishes we tried: Three cup chicken: 4/5 - pretty good dish. Knocked off a star because the white meat was a-little dry and the dish didn't have enough sauce. Stir fry vegetables: 3/5 - A-choy was too soft. More wok-hay needed. Taro, peanuts, anchovy, and dried shrimp: 4/5 - unique dish. It was pretty good. Some of the taro fries were too hard though. Sweet and sour spare ribs: 2/5 disappointing dish. The pork was very fatty and the sauce lacked flavor. When we didn't pack this dish home, the waitress didn't charge us. Definitely a nice and generous gesture. Overall, not a place we will be coming back. read more

A new Taiwanese restaurant - while the dishes and service did not disappoint, the prices were a little higher than I would've expected. However, that is compensated by the larger portion sizes. The complimentary snack of warm, fresh taro chips and anchovies and peanuts was great. We also loved the Taiwanese noodles/vermicelli and the three cup chicken. The spicy stinky tofu was a new dish to me, since stinky tofu typically is fried, but quite enjoyable if you can get past the stink. read more

I have been to this restaurant several times for dinner and just love it. The owner, Monica, was always very accommodating. Before your orders arrived they usually would provide a complimentary disk such as Chinese style rose peonuts mixed with little fishes. The cuisine is of authentic Taiwanese style, which is a niche Chinese dinning and makes the place stand out. Starting at 9 p.m. guests are welcome to stay for Karaoke singing. The atmosphere is casual and friendly so chances are other dinners will join you in singing. It is a fun place that I look forward to come again and again. read more

Menu FYI. Will go back and try again because on the day when I go there is only one waitress and I understand how hard it is for restaurant to run with short handed. But the good thing is the waitress was smiling all the times apologize for the delay. read more

The food is typical Taiwanese style. The taste is like in Taiwan. Love it. Will go back for sure

Came here just to try something new. I ordered some chicken pot dish in soup which was okay. Friend ordered some beef ong Choy. We went on a Friday night and they had 3 large parties. It was super loud as they were having a good time and drinking. No big deal until they pulled out the karaoke and started singing 90s Chinese music. I started laughing so we had to stop eating after. The food was okay. Just not something I would eat again. read more

I have been 3 more times with other Taiwanese families. The experience is getting better. I have tried lot more dishes and they are good but still a bit pricy. read more

Good and authentic Taiwanese food, I know that because the big group having dinner in the room was singing karaoke in Taiwanese (not mandarin)! The owner was exceptionally friendly with a high spirit, just like the ones you'd have in a local Taiwanese night market! read more

Do not go to this place if you want decent service. Wife and I were there earlier this evening waiting for 45 mins and ended up leaving. We drove by this place several times and did a Yelp search with mostly good review so we wanted to give it a try today to support a neighborhood business. The restaurant was half-full with couple large tables when we sat down around 6:45pm; It took about 10 minutes before someone stop by at our table to take the order. 30 minutes gone by watching other tables getting their food while ours were nowhere in sight. We told the server we are leaving. The server said she had pushed the kitchen to speed up but it didn't matter by then. No sure if the kitchen staff missed our order or they are under-trained as the restaurant was not busy at all the whole time we were there. Anyway zero star for service; no comment on food. Will not go there again as there are many Taiwanese restaurants in the SGV severing the same type of food at lower price. read more

Authentic, authentic, authentic! Great for family gatherings and celebrations. Offers unique dishes that are classic to Taiwan. Good service and atmosphere. read more

We waited over 1.5 hours for the food. It took about 20 minutes for each dish to come out. It turned out that there is no rice to go with the dishes that we ordered. How can a Chinese restaurant not have rice!? The servers didn't know what they were doing... there were a bunch of people who were sitting/eating and went back and forth to the kitchen. Looked like their own relatives. They were busy feeding their relatives first than their customers. The servers didn't speak English and not even looking at you... horrible. Come here if you want the mediocre food and the worst service for the expensive food... read more

Authentic Taiwanese food. Owner, Monica, post pandemic new location. Food tastes as good as before.

" Taiwanese" cuisine- came here with several friends for lunch. Ordered pig trotters, braised Napa cabbage, pickled bamboo shoot, and three cup squid. Taste okay but not sure it's truly Taiwanese probably due to lack of authentic ingredients. Price is a bit on the higher side. With so many Chinese restaurants in SGV, likely to pass on this one. read more

3 cup chicken need cook a little longer, Braised pork belly didnt pick up the right part of pork, basil preseved egg stinky tofu sould tke out manual, hakka stir-fired w/ squid no squid and the veg is verry hard. The food is not worth the price. read more

The taste was blend, nothing special. The stinky tofu was prob the best... only because there's no other place that makes it. The server was not super friendly either. Will not be back. read more

New management. The food is good, mandarin cuisine. The prices are high for what you get, but the food is tasty.
