    S02. Basil S&P Popcorn
    Rachelle C.

    You can't miss Orange Square on the corner! Pretty big space and lots of seating. We came on a Sunday night and were the only ones in the restaurant- slow night. I was a little frustrated considering we were the only ones there, the cashier took some time to acknowledge us as they were scrolling through their phone. Otherwise our order came out fast! Ordered the Salt & Pepper Basil Popcorn chicken- not bad, enjoyed the light batter however had clumps of batter and the seasonings were a little heavy for my liking. I think I would order the bowl next time so that I could eat this with rice. I would come by to try the other options!

    Nice packaging for the bento.

    I was looking for someplace to grab braised pork belly from after a gym session and this place popped up. It looked promising, so I made an online order and drove over - knowing it was quite far from where I was and from where I needed to head to next. But, the promise of good food is always a motivator! I ended up getting a deluxe braised pork belly rice bowl and the slow braised pork stew since I wanted to see what was the difference. The prices were a great value for what I ended up getting. I enjoyed the bowl more than the bento box - the bowl packed quite a bit of things in it for such a great price! The pork stew bento was good, but it wasn't as flavorful as the pork belly. I also got a thai tea, which tasted like that tea you get in a can. It wasn't bad, but way too sweet and left an aftertaste. The restaurant is located in its own little space with ample parking both in front and around the building. It's a little oddly configured, as the front entrance is not near either parking areas, but around the side facing onto the street. I walked around the building from the parking lot, getting anxious since I didn't see the door where I thought it was supposed to be. Inside, there's plenty of space to sit if you're dining in. I was able to grab my order from the front quickly and was back in my car all within five minutes. Overall, I'd come back and try a few other dishes that looked good, but only if I'm in the area as it's a bit of a drive.

    A friend and I wanted to try a taiwanese spot and we heard of Orange Square from mutuals. As you enter, there is a screen kiosk where you can view the menu and order your food. There are a variety of bento box styled meals and rice bowls to select from. The menu is also accessible on the hanging signs behind the register area. Once you order, it is self serve for seating arrangements. Each table has a number, and to be honest, I am not sure how they can tell where to deliver the food, but likely due to the lack of customers, they were able to spot where to drop the food off. Service was pretty quick, maybe maximum 8-10 minutes after ordering. Water and extra condiments are self-serve. My friend ordered the five spices chicken cutlet square, while I got the deluxe braised pork rice bowl. My friend enjoyed his chicken cutlet square, however for my braised pork rice bowl, I thought it was quite oily, overwhelming much of the flavor. By the nature of pork belly, which is quite fatty, most other places I am able to taste more of the flavor, but the shear amount of oily-ness was kind of a downer for me. They give you a lot of rice in the bowl as well, so the lacking flavor from the pork on top of the oily rice was not it for me. Overall, I would maybe try Orange Square again but would not order that rice bowl. It was just okay...

    Teriyaki chicken bowl
    Christie B.

    I've had this place bookmarked for awhile. My daughter and son-in-law live in the area so I've been bugging them to try it with me but they've been resistant. Finally I just decided to go by myself and see if it lived up to the reviews. I came during lunch and it was a ghost town. I was literally the only customer there except for the Doordasher picking up a delivery order. Parking is plentiful except we just had a decent rain storm that left a large part under water. The interior is bright, modern and clean. When you walk in, you're met with menus posted on a glass partition at eyelevel along with an ordering kiosk. I've mentioned this before, and I'll mention it again. Ordering kiosks are so unfriendly. I did see someone poke their head out and smile at me, but that was the only customer service I received. I placed my order and waited. When my items were ready for pick up the employee literally said my number set my bag down on the counter and walked away. I was standing right In front of her. I could understand if they were really busy, but how hard is it to make your customer feel welcome? Needless to say, I grabbed my bag and off I went. Here's what I ordered: TERIYAKI CHICKEN BOWL $15++ White rice was cooked well and there was A LOT of it under the chicken. Along with the rice was some sautéed cabbage, two pieces of broccoli, one piece of red pepper and a single cherry tomato. Not sure if that was supposed to be a salad and a soy egg half. This part was fine but basic. Let's talk about the teriyaki chicken. There was a decent amount but why oh why is the slimy, mushy, fatty skin left on it? It completely grossed me out. I pulled as much off as I could but a few pieces slipped passed me and I just couldn't finish eating it. Sorry Orange Square. This was a big no for me.

    Came here for the very first time to try out some Vietnamese food. The food was very delicious and flavorful, it was bit on the sweeter side. Portion was generous. It was quite a busy restaurant with a very clean surrounding. They served the food very fast and placing order was very easy as it was all computerized. Would definitely come again. They had a very good parking just in front of the restaurant. This restaurant is located just next to the Santa Clara Library.

    We were passing by and decided to pop into this spot to try something new and we're glad we did. They had a lot of bento style options and the food was delicious. Service was quick and attentive. The place it self is big, but there were some concerns of cleanliness near the kitchen and in the bathroom.

    S02. Basil S&P Popcorn
    Alex L.

    I ordered the basil popcorn chicken and boba for take out on UberEats, they had a BOGO for the popcorn chicken and boba. (we ate a box in the car) Really good value, but the food was okay. Good portion size for the cost. The chicken was crispy, the batter was seasoned. At the store they have spices on the side that you can add to the chicken. Very standard, chicken was neither moist or dry, not a lot of flavor in the meat, probably needed to be marinated a bit longer maybe? For the value and portion size, can't complain. The milk tea is not as fragrant as other boba, it was on the darker side, but could not taste a lot of the notes that you usually get from assam tea. At least it was not watered down. The boba was soak in sugar and was on the sweeter side. Most of the boba had good texture a bit chew, but I had a few that were a bit dried up and hard, it lost its chewiness. Overall not too bad for the price.

    Braised Pork rice bowl
    Amy H.

    Tasty delicious food! Bit of a wait time but it's worthwhile. Braised pork chop rice bowl: 5/5 Got the food to go! The pork belly is extremely soft and melts in your mouth and the rice is plump and flavorful because it's absorbed the pork belly sauce. The egg is well marinated as well. The veggies are .. just veggies but they added a cute carrot star so that earns a few points in my book. C: The bowl held up well during transportation and the food was still enjoyable even when it got a little cold during the ride back home! Service: It did take a while for the food to get ready at the restaurant but there's plenty of room in the waiting area. Ambiance: Not heavily decorated. You're here for the food not the ambiance. There is a lot is seating available so feel free to come in groups. I heard the milk tea at this spot is tasty so I'll have to come back to try that.

    Cornish Hen - Thanksgiving promo
    Wincy Y.

    It's been long overdue, but I gave them another try after their opening and am now a regular customer. I usually get the chicken leg bento deal on Wednesdays, which is a great deal. The bento comes with a chicken leg, rice, and some small side dishes. The wait times are quite long on those days though, so I recommend ordering ahead of time online. They also do other holiday promotions such as the free boba refills and ice cream. Most of them are good deals, besides the Thanksgiving cornish chicken (which is on the smaller side for the price). Their classic boba tea is also less sweet compared to other places I've had, which I do like. Usually I get food to go, but they have kiosks to order and then you can grab a seat to dine in; everything is self served. Overall I would recommend trying Orange Square for some authentic Taiwanese food.

    Pork Knuckles Box and Chicken
    William S.

    Quick service with a convenient to-go ordering system. Very well priced with good portions, and I appreciated the packaging. The highlight for me was the delicious cabbage side dish--super crunchy and flavorful. Overall, I was really happy with everything.

    Outside of square
    Yuki K.

    I've been wanting to try this place for probably 2 years but just never got around to doing so. After seeing the holiday surprise bag, I quickly took advantage by ordering two items we've been interested in - the basil S&P popcorn chicken snack and the pot roast beef brisket square. The set also came with a drink and I chose the "winter melon lemon aiyu (decaf") with 0% ice and 0% sugar. This was pretty good too and still mildly sweet. It does say "must have sugar" with 30% as the lowest option if I were to order it a la carte online, so I'm not certain if it the sweetness primarily came from the sugar rather than the fruits after all. The popcorn chicken is very well-seasoned, crispy outside, and juicy inside. Even after the 15-minute drive home, it retained a crisp. I'm pretty sure I clicked spicy but perhaps I misremembered as it didn't come with the spice powder on the side, and since everything was packaged well, I didn't notice. Pot roast beef brisket is incredibly tender and savory and came mixed with carrots, green beans, and daikon. The other sides were some broccoli, a cut of egg roll, a succotash of corn and edamame, and cabbage with red bell peppers and what seemed to be wood ear mushrooms. The egg roll and succotash were covered in some sort of sweet sauce that was a bit sticky. After leaving the box in the fridge, I noticed the sides had some gelatin in it (just like the meat) so they probably poured the sauce or liquid from the pot-roasted meat into the sides! Also as a side note, the container that the square now comes in says it's microwave-safe for up to 4 minutes. Will definitely return to try some of the other options!

    B05. Marinated Pork Chop Square
    Ashley Y.

    I've heard good things about this place, but maybe I chose the wrong bento or it was an off day. The pork chop was like 60% breading, which was unpleasant to eat and I ended up scrapping away all the breading. The meat was also really fatty. I did really like all the side dishes though and my friends who got the chicken leg one really enjoyed theirs. I think it's more of a takeout spot though - it was completely empty when we went but a lot of dashers came in and out.

    Cynthia W.

    Went on Christmas Day for Lunch! It was a bit busy but food came pretty fast. The bento portion is huge. Lots of side dishes. I couldn't finish all the rice. Service: I ordered dine-in so they brought the food to my table. Staff was very nice and went to get utensil for us as well. Ambiance: there are some tables inside. Most people order to go so I think it's easy to get a table inside. Plenty of parking outside.

She pointed at the wall and told me "it says on the wall", sounding like blaming me for not getting cash ready. Yes, maybe I should have read all the signs on the wall, but I really don't enjoy being blamed when I did nothing wrong. Assuming credit cards as one of the payment methods is not my fault, just how the society works. Anyway, I was able to pay them via Venmo, but I did not enjoy the experience at all.

The broth flavoring was also underwhelming and started to taste the same after our first refill. What made the experience disappointing was the lack of flexibility and willingness to accommodate reasonable requests, especially during a slow service period. Customer service and hospitality are an important part of the dining experience, and we left feeling that our concerns were dismissed rather than addressed.

Had a great experience prior to this with a friend so I wanted to bring my mom to try. My experience from the service however was a little uncomfortable. When I went with my mom there was no customers. The server seated us at the bench closest to the wall (the table was pushed into the bench against the wall so we had to move it.) Apparently a lot of the legs on some of the tables and benches are wobbly so they put things under to balance it. The servers told us to move it back under the table since we pushed the table out to sit into the bench. My mom is older and she has a hard time walking, she asked to switch to another table where the benches and tables were already spaced out properly because it is hard for her to bend down and move the things under the table legs. The server gave my mom an attitude and asked why two people couldn't fit into our current table.

Surprisingly veggie-friendly for this authentic homestyle place as they have an entire menu for vegetarian options!

    Atmosphere of hole in the wall (simple, counter service like McDonalds) place for prices of a…read morenormal restaurant... 14 dollars for lunch special x3 choices, 17 for lunch special x4 choices 16 dollars for steamed halibut.... Service is expected of hole in wall place; nonexistent, so that is not factored into the review. but they really did not need to ask for extra tip like what service did you provide?? Pretty unprofessional IMO For a takeout, having you not pay right away and having you pay at table is a predatory practice that encourages excess tipping as well compared to other counter service restaurants (think Mcdonalds) Food was alright; not too salty. P balanced. Pig ears had good woody spices and seaweed had solid garlicky sea flavor. Fish was light and soft with scallion ginger aromatics. Tofu quail egg was just sweet sour. Sauce bit watery. Rice porridge was lowk great depression food (Hella water, a few sweet potato pieces saving it by a bit) Good if it was 35% less. The voucher if you pay with cash is over many visits like what so many places give immediate cash discount........ But it really is something you can make at home

You place your order through a QR code, which makes the process quick and easy. This visit, we ordered the salt and pepper chicken wings, Tidu Sliced Beef Pot, and Tianjin Eggplant. The wings are a must-order here. They're always perfectly fried and crispy on the outside while still staying juicy and tender inside. The Tidu Sliced Beef Pot reminded me of a dry hot pot. It had a great mala flavor with a subtle numbing sensation, and the peanuts added a nice crunch and texture to the dish. The Tianjin Eggplant was simple but delicious, with flavorful pork that paired really well with the soft eggplant. Overall, the food here is comforting and satisfying. It's a place I'll definitely keep coming back to.

It's in a busy complex, but there was enough parking. When I walked in, I noticed they had a half-empty dining room but a ton of to-go orders wrapped up, including mine. I really loved the Mongolian beef, and the eggplant dish we got was good too. The chow mein was good. I did like the cucumber salad, but it would be better if it were sliced smaller, so the marinade could infuse the cucumbers. Service was friendly. Food was very fresh. I did notice the portion sizes were generous and we had plenty of leftovers!
