Cute little Taiwanese style eatery. A little pricy but food was slightly unique from what you'd find at other similar shops. Scan to order and pay at cashier.

滿滿的台味,一秒回台灣! 難得找到台式早餐店。 Authentic Taiwanese breakfast, something so hard to come by in SGV. Everything is delicious and great portion. I especially enjoy the Sizzling noodle. Staff is very friendly and helpful despite having a very busy day.

Love this place! Food is so good and I'm gonna miss it. Please come back soon! The ambience is chilling too

Signature black pepper sizzling noodles with house made pork patty & Egg

Came here for brunch and ordered Combo C -- Signature Black Pepper Sizzling Noodles with house-made pork patty and egg. The noodles were nicely peppery, which I enjoyed. As for the pork patty, I'm still on the fence. It's definitely less oily than regular sausage and a bit leaner, but I felt it was lacking in flavor. The seating arrangement is a little cramped, but the service was absolutely superb! The staff were attentive and friendly, which definitely made the experience more enjoyable.

Background On Visit: Felt like having some kind of Taiwanese breakfast. I was about to go to Four Seas/Si Hai, but ending up going to Morning Delight Cafe instead. Credit Cards: They're accepted only if you spend a minimum of $15. Restroom: There's a unisex restroom through the curtains towards the back of the shop. Location/Parking: Located on the NW corner of Las Tunas and San Gabriel. Believe it or not, but this place use to be Half and Half boba shoplocation! Mind blown riiiiiight? Parking can be found in the small strip mall/plaza. Ambiance/Decor: Small little shop with modern decor. There's about 3 tables that seat 4 and one that is for 2 people. Entertainment: You can get some selfies in with their backdrop on the right side when you walk into the shop. Service: Service was good. The staffer behind the register was friendly, attentive, offered great suggestion of pancake to order, and was informational about their shop. Food Of Choice: 1) Combo A: It's a combo that comes with any pancake, hash brown, and a milk tea. I decided on the combo pancake that has cheese, pork, and vegetable. It was good, but pricey. It'll be great if they had more pork and vegetable. I did like the milk tea. It wasn't overly sweet. Morning Delight For Thought: Would like to come back and try their signature pork sandwich.

We got different egg pancake rolls to try, and they were both mid. One was really oily. The cafe is small, and expect a wait. I would not come back unfortunately.

We couldn't decide which Taiwanese breakfast place to go. So many options in this area. My daughter wanted the green onion pancake wrap with basil. I got the combo egg pancake roll with basil. She says it was the best. Place is small to eat there but we took it out. Nicely packaged. Service was quick and friendly.

Stop by here if you want some green onion pancake wraps. Food was ok, staff was doing their best during rush hour. Just a heads up. Make sure you double check your bill for discrepancy in pricing.

This cafe is so cute from the cute exterior to the interior. It reminded me of the cozy themed cafes in Taiwan that I used to go to. I got a combo A with the pork floss and scallion and it was amazing. The crisp was just right and the hash browns were crispy too. It was piping hot when I got it and they have an assortment of seasonings for you to flavor it if you want extra seasoning. The milk tea was okay, it was pretty sweet. I still liked it though because it gave me the nostalgia of being back in Taiwan.

One grade away from closing.

3 areas that motivating me to give a one star review:) 1. C grade from Health department is unacceptable and none of us should risk our health. 2. Charge extra for credit card usage. 3. Extremely long wait time. A simple pancake would take more than 20 mins to make.

SOO GOOOOOD I cried inside because I loveee Taiwanese breakfast so much, and this place totally exceeded my expectations! The best dish we ordered was the Bacon Egg Pancake Roll (Dan Bing). The Dan bing had a nice crispy crunch to it which I am not used to, and I always feel that bacon goes so well with it! If you miss Taiwanese breakfast, then you have to come here!!!

I've known about Morning Delight Cafe for quite a while, but it's a very small restaurant with very few seats and it's only open for brunch. So I had to find a good opportunity to go. I finally came with a few colleagues for lunch. The items all looked good. One person got the steak and egg plate noodles, another person the curry soup base Taiwanese mini hot pot and milk tea combo. I personally got the traditional egg pancake roll with hash browns. I've had plenty of scallion pancakes but none with hash browns, so I thought that was unique. The staff are very attentive. The food took a while to come but it was worth the wait. I really enjoyed my hash browns and scallion pancakes. My colleague suggested I add the sauce that they had which tasted like a combination of ketchup and sriracha. It added a nice kick to the dish. The hours a bit weird and the location is a bit small, but definitely a solid Taiwanese brunch establishment.

I decided to give this a try since Tam's Noodle House next door was busy. First off this is a really cute looking cafe, tons of yellow around resemblance of eggs. I came for the breakfast so I tried out a few of the morning items on the menu. Combo F (Porridge + Fried Chicken) - This was a bit lackluster. The rice was chunky and not completely cooked down like I thought. Flavors were very strong and quite peppery. It wasn't bad neither was it that good. The fried chicken wasn't special either, it was crispy but the flavors were pretty mid. (3/5) Signature Pork Sandwich - This was advertised as limited edition on the menu. The sandwich was actually really tasty but when it arrived it looked like it's just a prepacked sandwich. For $6 though I thought it was good overall. (3.5/5) Basil Taiwan Sausage Egg Pancake - This is where this place shined. This was the only thing that I thought stood out. It was crispy, flavorful and looked great. I would recommend this. (4.5/5) Overall thought this was an alright cafe. The prices were good at ~ $10 per dish and the service was fast and friendly. Designs of the cafe were comforting and cute but I thought the food was a bit lacking. Not something I'd be back for.

Black pepper egg noodles.  Good amount of noodles which is about 60-70% of the plate. Tiny piece of "meat", egg and small  salad

It was a rainy night and we wanted something warm and cozy. A bowl of beef noodle soup will just do…read moreit. We came here around 6 pm and the restaurant is already full. Luckily, wee were able to sit down for a party of two. Great menu with a great variety of choices. I had the classic beef with noodle soup, we also ordered the rice cake with chicken. We added a sauté veggie. All came quickly and we really enjoyed the food. Service is great. A wonderful restaurant to come with friends and family.

Not as good as Diamond Bar. First time here…read more No wait around 5:30 pm on a Saturday. They have a waitlist available on Yelp, but I guess it wasn't necessary since there was no wait when I arrived. Super spacious inside, more spacious than the Diamond Bar location. The food was served fairly quickly. Beef roll was good, lots of beef, but I wish the actual roll itself had some crispiness to it. It was pretty soft. Braised beef and tendon noodle soup was spicy!! I didn't order it as spicy and the menu also did not indicate it was a spice dish, so not sure why it was spicy. The soup still tasted very good though and the beef and tendons were very soft and juicy. It could use a bit more veggies. Fortunately, the extra beef and tendons I got on the side were not spicy. Xiao long baos were good. Classic go-to dim sum dish every time. The skin isn't too thick. Great flavor with some vinegar and soy sauce. Hot Oil Shrimp Pork with Chinese Cabbage Wonton was ever spicier but this was expected. However, there was a weird taste like it's not very fresh or there was some tap water taste to it. I could hardly eat even one of them with the weird taste so strong. Overall very disappointed and not likely to come back to this location. The parking is pretty small and packed as it is shared with other businesses in the area. The back had more parking spaces fortunately.

The pork intestines and blood cake dish was also very flavorful, with plenty of aroma and just the right taste to go with rice. The beef noodle soup had a smooth, comforting broth, and the stir-fried dishes were all well-seasoned and went really well with rice. Overall, everyone enjoyed the meal, and the portions were just right. It's a good place to order several different dishes and share with a group. The staff were also friendly, and everything from ordering to serving went smoothly. The food had that familiar Taiwanese flavor and was very comforting. I hadn't had this kind of Taiwanese food in a long time, so I left feeling quite satisfied. I'd definitely come back again when I have the chance.

Authentic mom and pop Taiwanese restaurant…read more The Taiwanese beef noodle soup was one of the better ones we've had! Beef was soo tender and soup was very flavorful without being too salty. The popcorn chicken was also sooo good! Lightly crispy exterior and soft tender chicken inside. The seasoning was flavorful with the five spice and wasn't salty. The minced beef over rice was solid too but we liked the other two more.

COVID-19: Social distancing is not enforced at this establishment. Some of the staff wears a mask…read more All customers are not expected to wear a mask. It's optional now. The staff also wears gloves when handling food. There are some hand sanitizers available for customers to use. This place is available for take outs and has no indoor & outdoor seating available with limited capacity. They are only doing To Go orders. They are not sanitizing in between customers. COVID-19 Vaccination Proof: This establishment currently does not require proof of vaccination. While I was grabbing my food from this establishment last month, I asked if they had any special offers and they weren't offering any at the moment. They currently don't have happy hour. They also do not allow pets in their establishment UNLESS it's a service animal. Parking: The parking lot for this establishment is pretty big. They do share the lot with several other establishments. The lot doesn't really get busy, so you shouldn't have any problems with finding parking. I did notice that some spots are smaller than others. Food: I ordered a mild spicy popcorn chicken and minced bowl/ plate. The popcorn chicken was very flavorful, crunchy, tender, and juicy. Big portion for like $10. The Taiwanese seasoning mix brought me right back to the night markets to Taiwan. It's truly the 5 spice powder that hits the spot. The batter wasn't thick, so the chicken didn't taste very battery/ cakey. That's what I hate about some places that make popcorn chicken. It also wasn't too spicy for me. It was just right. I ordered the minced bowl, which is actually a plate. For like $12, it was actually pretty good and the portions was huge. The boiled / blanched cabbage and broccoli were soft, sweet, and tasty. I could taste the sesame oil on it. It wasn't salty. The sweet corn and diced juicy tomatoes combo was good too. The boiled tea egg was pretty delicious. You can actually taste the tea and soy sauce. The egg was nice and soft. And now, for the braised minced pork. The pork was very delicious and it just melted in my mouth. I love that there were some fatty pieces of pork too in the dish. It balanced out some of the pieces of pork, which had too much meat in it. Definitely a very savory and rich dish. Omg and the sauce from the braised minced pork drizzled over the rice was just so perfect! It made the rice extremely delectable. This is hands down one of my favorite Taiwanese dishes, and it was made perfectly. Staff: The staff here are very friendly, welcoming, and kind. They are closing this restaurant down in February 2026 due to rising rent and the landlord's unwillingness to upgrade the place. So sad. I'm seriously upset to see this place go. They accept both cash and credit cards. There is a $20 credit card minimum.

I was craving pork chop rice the other day and couldn't think of where to go, but I remembered…read morehearing that Why Thirsty had a solid pork chop, so I decided to give it a try. I've only had their drinks and popcorn chicken in the past, which were decent. I called in a pickup order and the food was ready in about ten minutes. As of 12/06/25, they currently do not offer dine in and are only doing takeout. I ordered the Railroad Pork Chop, which is the traditional Taiwanese style where the chop is marinated and grilled or pan seared instead of fried. It came with rice and two veggie sides, and everything tasted fresh. The pork chop was flavorful and tender, and the marinade went perfectly with the rice. Overall, a pretty solid meal and I would definitely come back for it again. Not many places still make the railroad style pork chop like this, so it's worth trying if you're a fan.

*** 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.

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.
