    Been eyeing this place since they opened and finally decided to pull up. The inside is clean and order straight at the register. Staff was chill and friendly. I grabbed the Taiwanese spicy noodle soup and some regular dumplings to go. Not the cheapest, but the soup? Honestly a solid win. The broth was flavorful with all the fixings, definitely hit the spot. The dumplings were a little on the blander side (kinda giving Costco frozen dumpling vibesl), but i drop them straight into that spicy noodle broth. Trust me, it completely levels them up and makes the whole meal so much better Overall a really solid meal, I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu!

    I came a few minutes before opening and the door was already unlocked and they were happy to serve me early. I appreciate that! Some places won't do that - if you know, you know I love that there is a variety of dumplings, potstickers and wontons (soup and non- soup versians). If you're an overall dumpling lover, come try this spot and don't forget to ask for a stamp card

    This woman was so rude. I asked for a sample of sour soup and she said no and disregarded me immediately putting her back towards me. She did the same thing when I asked if used Va discount. I told her I would yelp this she is the asian one with the short haircut. Also she used her hands to touch my wontons. It old her that was unsanitary. I want a fresh batch then she used prongs and wiped her head with the tip of them. This is so not right and now she making new wontons and letting my sour soup get cold she wouldnt let me sample. Somebody needs to give her a pep talk. Right before I left she started at it again! Using her hands when every other worker is using gloves. I called her out. She said oh well they are wrapped. Listen viewers I seen her grab them with bare hands and throw from freezer straight to fryer. I guess she thinks she is too good to where gloves.

    Potstickers, dumplings, noodles, and soups are all delish and affordable. Their pork chop is super soft but a tad bit oily but still awesome! FOOD 4/5 Not bad for fast food grab and go including their frozen offers which I keep seeing tons of customers pick up. FAIR AMBIENCE 3/5 Open high ceiling and decent seating but WOW it's dirty here. The single shared bathroom is nasty, sauces are empty, and the trash was overfilled. Sad the (3) employees don't rotate or have time periods to clean up everything SERVICE 4/5 Always consistent from ordering and making it made to order. PARKING 4/5 LA Fitness and other restaurants share the lot so it's a hit or miss when you come.

    My first time at Bafang, but I will most definitely be back soon to try more of their menu. This is a fast-casual chain hailing from Taiwan, where they have more than 1100 locations across Hong Kong, China, and their home country, making it (per their website) the largest franchise restaurant operation in that part of the world. Here, it's very much a simple affair: Formica tables, digital menu over the register, plastic trays and utensils. Order at the counter and grab a seat, your electronic number will vibrate when the food is ready. While you wait, you can fill ramekins with self-serve dipping sauces: soy, sesame oil, black vinegar, a composed garlic sauce and a spicy Sambal. I opted for their Signature Potstickers, with a filling of pork and cabbage, and an order of the Spicy Wontons, which are steamed and tossed in said spicy sauce, topped with scallion. The potstickers were nicely crisped, with a mild but flavorful filling. They worked well with all of the sauces, and were very satisfying. The sauce atop the Spicy Wontons had a nice heat that tingled without overwhelming the tongue. Alternating bites between these two similar but different-enough dumplings was a nice way to enjoy the meal. They have a number of other options on the menu: Chinese soups like Wonton and the like, some noodles, a fried pork chop, and an entree-sized beef noodle soup. It all looks good, and it's all fairly priced. A nice addition to the quick meal options in the area, and far better-tasting than what you get at the other, well-known fast food Chinese places.

    Super fresh dumplings! The dumplings remind me of the ones I grew up making with my mom and grandma because they have such fresh veggies in them. The first time I came to this restaurant and I tried the pork dumpling, I cried because I was so nostalgic of the home made dumplings that I missed so much. At this time, I've tried all their dumplings, the pot sticker, hot sour soup, and a few of their rice bowls. I really love the original pork dumpling and the chicken corn dumplings the most. But I still eat the kimchi and veggie dumplings too. It's nice to eat them hot in the restaurant, but they are also sold frozen. The frozen ones are so convenient for work night dinners. Great way to gave a quick dinner of fresh dumplings. My husband loves their pork bowl. It has pork cooked different ways and a delicious pickled veggies to contrast. The service is so nice. They answer all my questions very thoroughly. I appreciate that the food is made to order and still very quickly ready. For take out, the food is packaged very thoughtfully to prevent spills.

    The dumplings are great! I got the signature dumplings, 12 pieces with a hot and sour soup. I also really enjoyed the sauces. The soup was SO hot at first i couldn't eat it. I waited a bit and still ended up burning my mouth. The hot and sour soup was ok. I liked the veggies in it but ultimately not for me. The wonton soup was so incredibly oily that we did not enjoy it. The flavor was just dominated by oil. Customer service was just ok. I had some questions and it felt like the cashier was rushing me a little. Price point is pretty good for the amount of food you get. Overall, I'd come back but only for the dumplings.

    We went to the City of Industry location when it first opened and was pleasantly surprised when they opened another location closer to us in Van Nuys! This location has good traffic from the Costco and gym nearby. We loved getting the dumplings and beef noodle soup. They are quite flavorful and satisfying! If you need more sauce there is a station to get your fill of garlic, sesame oil, black vinegar, soy sauce and chili with ramekins. The beef noodle soup does have a bit of heft to it so worth it if you're hungry and need something substantial. All the dumplings are great to snack on.

    Ok, so I came here on invitation & I had the wonton soup. It was so good! My friends had the soup & she's obsessed but it was big enough for her to swim in, so we packed it home. We shared dumplings & they are so good! I'll definitely be back for those. It's a nice, clean restaurant & everyone was really friendly. You order at the counter & they give you a buzzer when your food is ready to pick up. The car park is a little tight around dinner time, but it's nice & easy spaces. Would definitely come back for the soup! I love that this is a TAIWANESE place with all the flavors to match!

    The Taiwanese beef noodle soup was exactly what I was craving. Deep flavor, firm noodles, and tender meat with pickled collard greens to boot. Portion size was good too. Not the best one I've ever had but would go back for this. The signature noodles were just okay, not flavorful. The signature potstickers were better. They have a sauce table.

    Tried it today for the first time... I ordered ahead online so it is ready for pick up... Food: I orderd 2 Bafang Noodles, 2 Fried Pork Chops, 2 Spicy Wonton and 1 Signiture 6pc pork dumpling for iur lunch. I must say that everything was delicious!! My son who's apicky eater, loved the noodles, dumpling and porkchops - like he literally ate a lot and even said, "their food is good!". The serving portion is decent for the price. From my opinion, the noodles is good for 1-2 people especially if your are planning to order other entrees. But of course if you have a big appetite then order for each... Like for us (4 in the fam) we actually didn't get to eat 1 of the extra bafang noodles and fried porkchop and there are atleast 6pcs of spicy wontons left - so I no longer need to cook dinner for tonight coz' we have some more food to eat! Yay! Service: I didn't get to go in the store, my husband picked it up but he said, the food was ready, the staff are nice and helpful and the sauces are in the condiments section and it is self serve. Ambience: Since the place is new, it is nice, clean and spacious he said and the place where Bafang Dumpling is at is right accross Costco Gas Station. I can't wait for this place to open in Northridge since that is going to be closer to us!! 5 stars to Bafang!!

    I realy enjoyed the dumplings here and service from Bafang. I stopped by at lunch and it wasn't too busy. From ordering to receiving my food was only about 10 minutes. I ordered the Noodle and potsticker combo with a side of dumplings for about $23 The least favorite for me was the noodle dish. It wasn't bad, but I think it just lacked flavor outside of the spice. It had a good kick of spice but it was kinda flat and not really exciting or unique. The noodles however were so good, cooked well and chewy. the potstickers were crispy, juicy, and filled well. While the dumplings were also cooked well and stuffed, juicy, and went so well with the vinegar and sauces available for you to serve yourself.

    It's a quick service restaurant with a few tables scattered around, for groups of 2, 4, and I think 6? The food came out after around 10 minutes and they give you a buzzer to tell you when it's ready. Of course it's authentic, the chain had over 1100 locations in Asia before coming to the US. We got the Taiwanese beef noodles for $18 and the 12 count signature dumplings for $14. Pretty pricey, but the food is good. The Taiwanese noodle soup has a mild beefy flavor that lingers with the oil. The beef is really stellar--soft, gelatinous, and delicious! My big complaint is the radish, it's cut like 2 giant logs so there's a strong radish flavor and boring texture. The dumplings are juicy, the pork and cabbage is soft and satisfying though, and the wrappers have a nice elasticity that gives it a good chew experience. But the flavor is also rather plain, but this is from someone spoiled with authentic homemade dumplings. They have a sauce counter with garlic, black vinegar, chili, sesame oil, etc. I tried the vinegar and it was not what I was expecting? It was sweet and not very acidic. There's a cpop playlist in the background on speakers that aren't too loud. Parking lot is big but can get crowded from how much is around. Not bad if you're craving it, but I don't think this will be in my regular rotation.

    Never thought Taiwanese food could be both vegan and delicious (iykyk) but I'm glad I stumbled upon…read morethis on Instagram! Street parking can be challenging but my friend and I got lucky with good spots. It's a very cozy place with a lot of seating meant for family style eating. It's a one man show by the owner Jerry who's the cashier, waiter, cook and dishwasher! You pay first then wait for the food, they do not accept Apple pay and Amex. The food came out not too long after. The classic plant appetizers tasted like a less oily, less sinless but still tasty version of their original counterparts (such as the beancurd and seaweed). They also serve air-fried not so stinky tofu, the classic, without stinking up the whole block and retaining that 'stink' in the taste. We had the "beef" noodle soup (jackfruit) and minced "pork" rice (impossible meat) both were bomb!! Great takes on the classic all stars without all the oiliness while still retaining the flavors we know and love. Jerry also had us try their potstickers which were just veggies only without the veggie meat and they were refreshing. He had us try their dandan noodles and the sauce and noodles were perfection! Overall, my vegan friend and I (non-vegan but an Asian food enthusiast) had a great experience trying out the food and learning a more vegan perspective about them from Jerry. Wish the parking could be better but if you're looking for a healthier version of Taiwanese food, definitely make a stop here!

You walk up and ring the bell when ready to order (physical cards only no American Express or Apple Pay). We for the peanut butter and chocolate shake and it was so delicious . So happy to find delicious vegan Taiwanese food. I wish this was closer because we only went here on the way to visit friends and it's so good.

All their weekday lunch specials come with hot & sour soup and an egg roll. I had to get their signature spicy orange chicken which is tangy and perfectly crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. It's seriously such a great deal with the amount they give you. Even their dim sum items are discounted during lunch too so I got all my favorites like shumai, radish cakes, green onion pancakes, string beans, and even the rainbow xiaolongbao sampler which is basically Russian roulette for you to guess the flavor of each. But the real sleeper on the menu are the sweet & spicy corn ribs. Love the nod to the Asian taste profile, and it's sooo satisfying to eat! Thanks for reading! ^-^

I've been coming here for the past two years, and their quality is stayed consistently high, if not even improving! They also have an amazing cocktail menu (which is more unusual for dim sum spots) and weekday lunch special menu from 12-3 PM, which features select dim sum and traditional Chinese dish combos at VERY affordable prices (all under $20). Honestly, everything I've tried on every visit has been AMAZING, but I highly recommend asking your waiter for recommendations and specials, since I've been able to try so many new dishes that I probably wouldn't have ever ordered.

We got there on the early side, so we were able to snag 2 seats at the bar, where we were well-tended-to by our bartender who mixed up an excellent Bombay Sapphire Martini to celebrate National Martini Day. A skilled blend of the gin and vermouth, stirred to a proper chill without watering it down. Nice!! My wife ordered a Riesling, and found it to be refreshing as well. Now, of course, Formosa is decked out in deep reds and blacks, and all manner of Chinese decor circa Hollywood's golden age, and it still feels like at any moment, a hard-boiled, detective movie argument might break out in the corner booth. The menu goes along with the decor, mainly focused on classic Chinese dishes, from dim sum to full entrees, and it all sounds very appealing on paper. Used to be that the food was far less appealing upon delivery, but that has changed big time. The food is now quite excellent, and very much worthy of your time. We ordered up the Shrimp & Pork Shu Mai, and liked them so much we got a second order. Freshly made and fresh out of the steamer, they were packed with a very tasty filling, and joined by a vinegary sauce that elevated the flavor even more. We also ordered the Dan Dan noodles, made here with brisket instead of pork. Lots of peanut flavor and a good deal of spice, served in a very ample portion. These were hearty, tasty and very satisfying. Parking in the lot below is easy, and the staff is energetic, friendly and accommodating. After 87 years, the Formosa has definitely hit its stride again, and you'd do well to treat yourself to some time in this reborn rendezvous from the good old days.

Limited parking in back, but plenty on the street this small sibling eatery to Rustic Spoon - Valley Village has a lot of those familiar beats with both inside and patio seating. I haven't been to this location in many years, but the service and eats definitely had me nostalgic. Stopping in for dinner before an event night, my friend Shaun and I enjoyed the Pad Thai (him) and their Warm Noodle (myself) w/ Tofu. The portions are smaller than the Rustic Spoon in Valley Village, but the flavors and quality are abundant. From curry to desser, noodles to rice dishes, appetizers, salads, soups, chef's specials and even a kid's menu. No wine, beer or alcoholic beverages available here, however excellent mocktails (Rose Mojito, Bloody Lychee), teas, and various classic beverages. We experienced a minor mix up with my order initially, I was brought a noodle dish with steak, but I think it was meant for another table since I don't eat meat and can't remember the last time I used steak in a sentence. It was an easy fix and we had zero other issues, aside for me leaving my bag at the table - they were super kind enough to flag us down on the sidewalk. Very clean and intimate inside with nice lighting from the street and their own special touch at night. Restrooms for customers Wi-Fi available upon request. Patio is pet friendly. Solid for groups, but absolutely plan ahead (they do take reservations). Open daily from 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM and 4:30 PM - 9:00 PM on weekdays as well as from 3 PM until 9 PM Saturdays and Sundays.
