    Pork chop and chicken leg rice
    Carrie W.

    This review is so long overdue. My family and I used to come here consistently and it does not disappoint. This restaurant is small and family owned. Trust me when I tell you that their pork chops and specifically the fried chicken leg is so much more superior than any other Taiwanese restaurant I've ever been to. I don't know how they are able to achieve such flavor, tenderness, and crispiness of the meat. Super good! And it comes with sides that varies every day. This time it came with ma po tofu and veggies. The meal always comes with an egg. I crave their food all the time and I'm sad that I don't live that close to Rowland heights anymore, but whenever I'm in this area, I will always consider this place as one of my meal choices.

    Definitely some of the best Taiwanese pork chops you can get in LA. Pork chop had nicely crispy outside and achieved that perfect flavor you find with Taiwanese pork chops. Although their pork chop was really good, their fried chicken leg tasted even better in my opinion. Popcorn chicken was fine. Their rice and noodle soup tasted standard. I liked the service. It's gonna be hard to search for another restaurant in LA that does Taiwanese pork chops better than this place. So search no further and just come here!

    Haven't been here in awhile, food is still as tasty and service is better! Will come again soon

    Food is good.  Service?  What service?

    I'd give this place zero stars if I could. I came here for lunch today with one other person, and the entire experience was honestly baffling and uncomfortable. The restaurant was only about 1/3 full when we arrived. We found a table and sat down, only for the woman owner to rush out of the kitchen and demand that we move. She claimed the table we chose was "reserved for a party of 4," even though the table she moved us to was the exact same size. Whatever, we obliged. Then it got weird. A few minutes later, another couple walked in, sat at our original table, and she gave them the same speech and shoved them into a corner. Ten minutes after that, a third couple walked in and sat at that same "reserved" table--and this time, she didn't say a word. She just let them stay. The other displaced couple and I just looked at each other in total confusion. It felt completely arbitrary and honestly disrespectful. The "service" here is non-existent anyway. It operates like a food court: you have to get your own water and walk up to the counter just to order your food. They basically just drop the plate and disappear. Because of the rude treatment and the fact that I did all the work myself, I didn't leave a tip. To my shock, the owner actually had the gall to come out and demand a tip. The level of entitlement is unreal. You can't treat customers like an inconvenience, provide zero service, and then expect to be rewarded for it.

    Hair under the pork chops. Gross.

    Came to get my pick up. While I got to the store, I waited by the cashier for my order. I figured I would get a cup and get water, which is right next to the cashier. As I grabbed the paper cup, the (rude) lady yells from INSIDE the kitchen: There's no water for pick up orders. (Geez, super Nazi!) Their pork chop is good, but will definitely make an effort to never come back. Update: Just started eating our take out and my son just told me there's a hair in his pork chop. Time to ask the health department to check their sanitation.

    Noodles with pickled greens and crispy pork chops.

    Got the pork chop and noodles. The soup was not that salty and the pork was crispy. The picked greens were tasty and added great flavor. Don't expect much service or a super clean place and your expectations won't be dashed.

    Authentic, delicious Taiwanese food at a very affordable price. Service is great despite only two people running the restaurant. Ambiance is casual like a mom and pop Chinese restaurant. Highly recommended!

    Soup noodle
    Ken W.

    If this rating is for the food is is 5-star as this place is famous for the Taiwanese pork chops. Even though is mainly ate with rice I love their pork chops with soup noodle. The reason for 4 star is that it seem like a mom and pop shop so don't expect friendly customer service as I went today by myself and they don't even give me one napkin but gave other table who has 3 people. Also, their appetizer includes pig ears which I like but tried to order last 2 times they don't have it maybe discontinued but still on the menu. It's a small restaurant so not a lot of seats. Definitely not the best place to go if u have a big group more than 4.

The bowl is piled high with mapo tofu, braised pork, tomato scrambled eggs, cold seaweed salad, and broccoli, plus half a poached egg. I could easily eat this for two meals. The Three-Cup Chicken is fragrant with fresh perilla leaves, steaming hot when served--so tempting! The flavor is delicious and perfect with rice. The salt-and-pepper shrimp is incredibly flavorful; the crispy, tender shrimp coated in savory salt and chili flakes are so addictive you'll keep eating without stopping. The oyster omelet sauce suits my taste perfectly--sweet and sour with a hint of spice, really appetizing. The scallion oil noodles are absolutely mouthwatering. I love adding a bit more chili oil to enhance the aroma even more. The restaurant is clean and tidy, and the staff are warm and friendly--overall, a great dining experience. The portions are generous and highly affordable, and they also offer catering services for meetings, including boxed lunches

All the sides taste fantastic as well. About the service... First, the lady was gaslighting me into thinking it was $60 for a uni rice bowl. I was skeptical and looked up online, the delivery app literally said $39 for the same bowl. I showed the online price to her and she said "I will give you the cheaper version of $39 but with less uni". Fine... when I finally got my meal and started eating, she started asking me some really personal questions, it made me really uncomfortable. I really love the food here but I won't go back again. I know her intention isn't harmful or bad, but I prefer to enjoy my meal in peace.

The price has gone up to $16/person for dinner now, but as always no tip necessary so it's still a crazy deal in my opinion. The seating area is also small so if the higher prices keep crowds down, I'm totally fine with that.
