We ordered takeout and tried a variety of dishes -- the gua bao (both steamed and fried), popcorn chicken, dried pork noodles, and the minced pork rice. The steamed gua bao was the standout: soft, flavorful, and really well done. The only drawback is the price, around $7-8 per bao, which felt a bit high for the portion. The only thing that disappointed me was the service. When we picked up our order, some of the items were left behind and no one mentioned it. We didn't realize until later, so it was a bit frustrating to miss part of what we paid for. Overall, the food itself was good and pretty authentic, but I hope they improve the pickup experience so nothing gets missed next time. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Homey casual restaurant with really affordable Taiwanese dishes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Felt like I was eating a family friends house.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Only tough part was most of the employees only speak mandarin so it was harder to communicate. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's 2 sides - to go hot bar and sit down restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got 2 combo plates - 1 shrimp and 1 pork belly. Both came with different side dishes (we didn't get to pick which was interesting?) regardless everything we got was good and not too salty/oily. The combo came with a side of rice with some beef on top. All combo plates came with a drink - your choice of black, green or milk tea so worth for $11! We also got 1 popcorn chicken snack that came with a lot and the seasoning was on point. We asked for sauce on the side read more

This place is so bomb! They have the best Taiwanese food for miles! We have pretty much ordered from here at least once a week or so for years and we still enjoy every order. Their bento combination plates are our go to - great value as it comes with an entree, sides, and a drink. You pick your entree and they fill the bento with a variety of sides (different each time). All the sides are delicious. Our go-to order is the Fried Chicken Steak with Chili Sauce Combo 椒麻雞排便當 and the Fried Fish Filet with Spicy Salt Combo 椒鹽魚片便當. Their popcorn chicken is crispy and flavorful, too. I love that you can now adjust sweetness and ice levels on the drinks. Easy to order online and the food is always ready quickly. Hands down our favorite place to eat! read more

Ok, calling this place a hidden gem is cliche but it is. The pork ball soup reminds you of the nostalgic old fashion street food vibe. The broth is clear yet rich with a dash of celery to balance out the flavors. And scallion chicken? The meat was juicy and tender, not the Hainan chicken style that I was anticipating but it's a good surprise. The service was great, you are attended to in a very fast timely manner. The only gripe I had was that they close so early at 7:30PM was their last call. I'm definitely coming back to reminisce my childhood memories. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a very cute hole in the wall in Chino Hills![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I very much enjoy coming here for their stinky tofu! I always order more than three portions! As a Taiwanese American girly, you have no idea how hard it is to find a good stinky tofu place! Each portion of stinky tofu comes with garlic soy sauce, and Taiwanese pickled cabbage! The only thing I will say is that you need to order a side of pickled cabbage if you want to ensure that every bite is well balance! I'm definitely a regular here! The staff is very sweet, and I'm sure I'll be back within the next week or two. read more

Came here on a weekday for lunch. If you are looking for authentic Taiwanese food, this is the place! Had ordered fried stinky tofu and minced pork soup (with rice noodle). Definitely worth coming back again! Service wise, can be a bit slow, but the food is worth it! read more

Been visiting Taiwan's No. 1 for a year now, and it just gets better every time! Their stewed pork chop and popcorn chicken are my absolute favorite, and I highly recommend the fried guabao. It melts in your mouth, and it's just a fun and delicious play on the traditional guabao. Dumplings, wontons, sausage mask are also good. Teas are the perfect balance of sweetness ("not too sweet" aka the Asian way). You also can't beat their combo plate prices especially since you get a drink with it too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They recently renovated and knocked down the wall between the restaurant and the yogurt shop to make a bigger restaurant with more seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Love it and am looking forward to more years of patronage! read more

Very busy not a good service, foods are expensive, small quantity and average tastes. I believe most of the customers they don't know how to make food at home so they willing to pay that much for the average meal. read more

I used to look forward on coming to Taiwan No 1 Cuisine because the food taste great and owner was really nice., However, things have changed since they hired some new server. I don't know why the server was really mean. We have been waiting over 20 minutes and still have not received our water. No one seems to care since we just don't exist. I have ringed the bell twice and her coworker asked her to help us with water where we just did not get helped at all. I didn't drive all the way here to left me hanging. I am completely fine if the resturant was really busy or under staffed, but that was not the case. There were only 3 tables and both tables came after us were helped. read more

Do not come for lunches. Especially for ppl have short lunch time. Wait 20 min to order , waited another 35 min to be served for the food. Yet half of the seated are empty. When the food was served, it is COLD, it means it was left there for long time. When asking about the wait time, they said they have too many orders. The regular wait time is 35-40 min. Hello? Please let ur customer know that ahead of time? read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They have expanded to a nice dine in area nice ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Fresh and tasty food near me!

5 stars. This place is peak comfort food. As a taiwanese american I am always searching for good taiwanese food and this place was a hidden gem. It's a really small shop with only a few tables inside, but I think they have a little bit of outdoor seatings and their main specialty is takeout bentos. They have a large variety of classic taiwanese comfort food and street food, all made well and are high quality. I ordered the popcorn chicken rice and it was hearty and tasty. The portion size was also pretty good. I also got the gua bao, one of my favorite dishes and it was extremely satisfying. My table ordered the big sausage wrapped in little sausage to share and it was very flavorful and filling. The workers were very nice and friendly. Overall, I highly recommend checking this place out if you are a fan of taiwanese food. read more

I ordered meatballs, purple sticky rice, and pork slice with minced garlic. The meatballs and purple sticky rice were delicious, but the pork was alright.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is clean and the staff is super friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their food took me back to my childhood and home.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Have to walk into building while people smoking cigarettes outside the door[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I asked they really have to smoke right on the sidewalk of establishments they got mad and said 20 feet from door but they weren't 20 feet[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . 20 feet puts you in the parking lot structure and they weren't literally by the trash's cans 10-12 feet away from the door . They got offended told me to shut the fuck up . Didn't even think twice about leaving my money there .. while would I order food there is the walking in experience was like that ... I asked if they worked there none on them said anything they said go away . Yeah idk about this spot I like my food nicotine free thank you read more

No good. I order a dinner set in the vegetables have price tags inside. Hope they can be more carefully. read more

First time here and it hit the spot! I ordered 4 things but forgot to take a pic of the iced green tea: 1. Wontons topped with chili over steamed bokchoy (I think... might be some other steamed greens). I thought it might be like wontons in spicy sauce from Din Tai Fung but it wasn't. Somewhat similar flavor profile, not sweet at all, and super spicy but also very flavorful! I made sure to eat this first so I could cool off my tongue with the other 2. 2. Fried gua bao... so good! Perfectly soft bun pressed with crunchies, a sweet sauce (hoisin?), and pickled vegetables with tender, fatty pork belly. 3. Vietnamese sausage with sticky rice. It also had a sweet sauce and pickled veggies, probably the same ones, but it was still very good. I'm American (European blood) but love Taiwanese food so this was such a treat. I have had some version of all of the above in various places but not like this and never for such a good price! They have a lot of options (double-sided menu with small writing) and many more things for me to try. This place is very small but since the owner's brother owns the frozen yogurt place next door and it's slow during the winter, they use the seating. I was there by myself and they had Christmas movies playing on the TV. It was very relaxing. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very small and quaint.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was delicious and the service was great! This is a combination store and restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]So the tables are a bit close, but overall it was a wonderful experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you! read more

Flavor 4/5 - Each dish was yummy, and the flavors were well-balanced without additional sauce. Price 5/5 - Compared to most restaurants, the price was very reasonable, and the portions were just right. Quality 3/5 - The quality of the produce and meat is unknown, but it is safe to assume that the veggies are not organic and the meat is from unethical sources (not pasture-raised, grass-fed, etc.). The cooking oil is unknown. However, I experience minor reactions to canola oil which I, unfortunately, experienced here. However, some dishes are made-to-order by the cooks, and upon request MSG can be removed. I am unsure if butter can be requested for cooking, but I will try next time. Extra: They have a frozen section of homemade items worth checking out! read more

If you're coming here, you should come for the gua bao and the stinky tofu (if thats your jam). We ordered a bunch of stuff - the pork chop rice, the soup noodles, and lemon tea. Everything was good, but the gua bao and the stinky tofu were truly notable and my favorites of the entire order. The sitting here is limited so coming with a big group might be a bit difficult unless you come at an off hour. Small 1-2 people groups should be somewhat easy to grab and go. The lady taking care of us was super kind and great about trying to accommodate our group of 5. Orders were taken quickly and things came out relatively fast too. Definitely will be back! read more

Super tasty Taiwanese food. We tried the guabao (Taiwanese hamburger), three cup basil chicken combo, braised pork noodle soup, popcorn chicken and oyster pancake. Everything was delicious. They were slammed on Saturday morning from the moment they opened at 11. It took about 35 minutes for takeout because they make everything fresh to order. Just a heads up in case you are pressed for time. read more
