    Leek pie. Delicious
    James L.

    I've known about Yung Ho for many years, as we came here to grab some handheld foods before driving to Vegas. This is my first time dining here for some Taiwanese breakfast items. The inside is small, dated and resembles an eatery from Taiwan; meaning they don't focus too much on decor and ambiance. Where they lack, it's balanced out by the nostalgic comfort food. We went with some familiar items: Chinese donut was fresh, slightly crispy, fluffy and a decent size. Perfect for dipping in sweet soy milk or on its own. Ginger soy milk was surprisingly good. It's a perfect balance, you taste the ginger and the sweetness of the soy milk without one overpowering the other. I'd get it again. But is you order plain sweet soy milk, you'll have to add your own sugar to taste. The beef pan cake (not pancake) had good flavor but the pastry part was a bit dry and hard on the edges. The texture seemed like leftover from the previous day, then reheated. The leek pie was very good. Fresh and flaky shell stuffed with the right amount of leek. I also got a giant almond cookie before leaving. It was a bit dry and crumbly. They're displayed by the counter near the entrance. Besides serving simple breakfast items, Yung Ho also have lunch items like rice and noodles. The people here are friendly with a warm smile, and it has that family owned small business vibe. We will definitely be back. The parking lot is small and shared with a few other businesses, but I never had problems finding a spot. Side note: Yung Ho located next to Arcadia Donut, another family owned small business that I like to support, and who happened to be survivors of the Monterey Park mass shooting.

    XLB... very X (Xiao-- the X in XLB) or small and not juicy which is just fine for my seven year old

    This is my new go to spot for traditional Taiwanese (Chinese) breakfast. Four Sea(s) AKA Sihai is good but I prefer the atmosphere here at YungHo as it has better seating, more extensive menu, and not to mention way better service. As always I like to start with the great history of this place. Even if this particular restaurant doesn't have direct lineage to the original brand YungHo, its menu and main dish reflect the founding and philosophy of YungHo. YungHo was founded in 1955 by a retired Chinese soldier from ShanDong. Its original location is at one end of the bridge at the cusp of YungHo District in what was once Taipei County (now New Taipei City). Its exclamation point in establishing its prominence in food excellence was when Madame Chiang visited the place since she was a food enthusiast. Back to present times, this YungHo may not be spot on with all the original flavors but the main items of soybean milk and Chinese donut (YouTiao) are solid. The hardest dish to master is the rice roll (FanTuan) and they came through with that as well. Last but not least I cannot leave out my younger son's favorite, Xiaolongbao (XLB) or steamed buns. This is definitely not a YungHo dish but it's a popular item here. Don't expect them to be the juicy XLB at DTF because they are not exactly juicy. Rather they are homemade and still quite tasty without the juice. So be aware if you like lots of juice in your XLB. Until next time I see you, YungHo. Of course I cannot wait to visit the original location in YungHo, soon!!

    Wow, I missed this place when I moved to the East Coast. There's a bunch of poser Taiwanese fusion breakfast spots in NYC, and they're overpriced and subpar. There's no line here on a weekend morning for brunch. Meanwhile, in East village, you'll have to wait like 3 hours for Ho Foods, and their food is twice as expensive and a fourth the quality. The fried dough here is fluffy on the inside and cripsy on the outside. I don't have to order a set menu. My favorites are the egg pancakes. Probably each dish is under $7. The service is no frills and quick. If you order the normal soy milk with not the "salty" version( that one has tofu chunks and sesame oil,etc. to make it savory), then you control your diabetes level. There's a sugar glass on the side and you can pour as much as you want?!?!

    What is this??? 3 pieces of lamp for an $18 dish? Makes me sad to see this place. Try harder.

    Taiwanese pork folded bun (gua bao)

    Made to order, extremely fast Taiwanese street food style service, with classics like gua bao, meat balls, vege buns, and hot soy milk

    Was craving Taiwanese breakfast and decided to check this spot out for the first time. The menu is quite extensive! I got a number of dishes including shao bing (plain and with egg), you tiao, soy milk, scallion pancakes with egg, beef rolls, beef noodle soup, xiao long bao, and stinky tofu. Overall the food didn't taste fresh. The shao bing was more tough than crispy. The XLB was not juicy at all and the skin was thick and a bit dry. One item that was made well was the radish omelet, which had a good texture and taste. The staff was friendly. The restaurant is in a small plaza with easy parking.

    Egg pancake with Chinese donut
    Vicky W.

    I was born and raised in Taiwan!! Growing up with traditional Taiwanese breakfast and this restaurant warms my heart with their food-- the taste of home. The parking situation is quite easy and there's always no issue to find a spot on weekdays and weekends. They accept cash and card and I usually place phone orders and pick up, it's quite convenient. No outdoor seating only dine-in. ⁣ ⁣ Here I present my favorite Taiwanese breakfast item- Egg Pancake stuffed with Chinese Donut (You Tia)!!! The outside is crunchy with a slight savory flavor, inside is the freshly deep fried dough, nice a warm and very crispy. Every bite is full of flavors and layers of texture. ⁣ ⁣ If you are hesitant about trying Taiwanese breakfast, this is the place to fulfill your appetite and cheer up your tastebuds.

    Vegetarian rice roll with egg
    Judy T.

    As a vegetarian, I was happy that they had vegetarian options. We got a rice roll with egg, salty soy milk, and a vegetarian fried rice cake. It was all very delicious. I liked that they added seaweed for a little more umami. Staff was friendly and not overly attentive. The flavors weren't too salty either. Pricing was decent for what we ordered. I would definitely go back. for some comforting Taiwanese breakfast.

    Takeout Menu as of 6.20.21
    Stacey C.

    Glad I found a new Taiwanese breakfast joint nearby our home! I've always gone to Si Hai in San Gabriel and Yi Mei in Monrovia in the past but I recently tried Yung Ho and the quality is pretty much the same among these restaurants. But I think Yung Ho is less expensive than Yi Mei. They are still operating as takeout only, no dine in, as of June 2021. Their indoor dining space inside is pretty small so I don't know if I would feel comfortable dining there yet even if it was open. Every time I pass by the restaurant, there is always a line of at least 3-4 people outside waiting. Their fan tuan (rice roll) portion is huge! Good value for the price. While I was waiting, I could see each party ordering a few of these rice rolls. The pan fried radish cake was okay. If you order it, it taste better if you order it with egg. Their sweet tofu soup was good. It's already lightly pre-sweetened with the ginger sauce.

    You tiao. So light and crispy!!!!

    *** Credit cards accepted over $30 ***…read more Sinbala is one of the most iconic and long-established Taiwanese restaurants in Los Angeles and the flagship restaurant has been around for 20+ years. This is my go-to place if I ever crave actual authentic Taiwanese comfort food. Although the restaurant closed its secondary location in Rowland Heights and had a rumored change of ownership right before COVID, this flagship location is still here to stay. The original founder Linda used to work at Wan Chun Taiwanese Food before opening Sinbala. [Parking]: The parking lot can be packed during busy hours, but I had no issue finding an available spot on Sunday at 5:30 PM. [Atmosphere]: Casual dine-in setup and you are not exactly coming here to vibe but rather to enjoy good Taiwanese comfort food. [Menu]: The signature dish to order here for 1st timer is definition #1 Sausage Rice as their Taiwanese sausage is their claim to fame item. While Yelp's top highlighted items include #36 Popcorn Chicken and #2 Fried Pork Chop (all solid picks), I am a sucker on their noodle bowls such as #24 Beef Noodle Soup and #18 Pork Stew Noodle Soup. As a general rule of thumb, The general rule of thumb is their menu has picture of featured items and those are the one to get. The signature dish to order here for a 1st timer is definitely #1 Sausage Rice as their Taiwanese sausage is their claim-to-fame item. While Yelp's top highlighted items include #36 Popcorn Chicken and #2 Fried Pork Chop (all solid picks), I am a sucker for their noodle bowls such as #24 Beef Noodle Soup and #18 Pork Stew Noodle Soup. The general rule of thumb is any dishes with pictures on the menu = featured items. *** #25 Steamed mini pork bun (aka XLB prep takes 15 minutes - 10 pieces for $16.29): The XLB here had thick skin and was not super juicy, but it had an excellent flavor profile. #1 Sinbala Sausage Rice ($15.38): This remains the classic dish to order and is still one of the best Taiwanese sausages in LA and Orange County. #18 Pork Stew Noodle Soup ($15.38): If a restaurant sells any stew noodle soups, then you know that's a legit Taiwanese restaurant. The flavor profile really hit the spot and reminded me of the same stew noodle soup I had from Taiwan street vendors. *** This still remains one of my top Taiwanese restaurants in Southern California as there are fewer and fewer legit Taiwanese restaurants in Los Angeles / Orange County now.

    SinBala - Arcadia…read more SinBala is one of the rare Taiwanese restaurants that has stood the test of time. I grew up eating here. There used to be several locations across Southern California, and I'm glad the Arcadia location is still here. Every visit brings back memories. I come for the Taiwanese classics that are becoming harder to find. The popcorn chicken is still one of my favorites--crispy, fragrant, and seasoned the way Taiwanese street vendors do it. The Taiwanese meatball soup is comforting, and the Taiwanese sausage always reminds me of night markets back home. What I appreciate most is that SinBala doesn't just serve street food. It brings those familiar flavors into a warm, home-style setting. It's nostalgic without trying too hard. Before you leave, save room for dessert. Their shaved ice is a must. I always recommend the brown sugar shaved ice topped with five mochi or boba. It's refreshing, not overly sweet, and the perfect ending to a meal. Taiwanese food is often overshadowed by other regional Chinese cuisines, but places like SinBala remind me how unique it really is. Simple, comforting, and full of character. I'm grateful this little piece of Taiwan is still here.

Thankfully no more Chinese school, but I still love getting together with my family for a weekend meal. I was so impressed by All In Cafe. It's a small, unassuming spot tucked into a Stater Bros. plaza, but the flavors instantly brought me back. We always start with the fried combo. It comes with popcorn chicken, fish cakes, oyster mushrooms, squid balls, and sweet potato fries. Everything is seasoned with the perfect amount of five spice, and it's great for sharing. I usually come with my family, and we always order way too much because who doesn't love leftovers? Some of our other favorites are the stewed stinky tofu with intestines, rice cakes, the chicken plate, and the cold cut salads. Honestly, you can't really go wrong with anything here. The space is pretty small, but the staff is attentive and the food comes out fast. It's one of those places that feels comforting and familiar, and I always leave happy.

I even didn't want to take any photos of the food, because I was so pissed off! Save your money and go somewhere else.
