    S02. Basil S&P Popcorn
    Rachelle C.

    You can't miss Orange Square on the corner! Pretty big space and lots of seating. We came on a Sunday night and were the only ones in the restaurant- slow night. I was a little frustrated considering we were the only ones there, the cashier took some time to acknowledge us as they were scrolling through their phone. Otherwise our order came out fast! Ordered the Salt & Pepper Basil Popcorn chicken- not bad, enjoyed the light batter however had clumps of batter and the seasonings were a little heavy for my liking. I think I would order the bowl next time so that I could eat this with rice. I would come by to try the other options!

    Nice packaging for the bento.

    I was looking for someplace to grab braised pork belly from after a gym session and this place popped up. It looked promising, so I made an online order and drove over - knowing it was quite far from where I was and from where I needed to head to next. But, the promise of good food is always a motivator! I ended up getting a deluxe braised pork belly rice bowl and the slow braised pork stew since I wanted to see what was the difference. The prices were a great value for what I ended up getting. I enjoyed the bowl more than the bento box - the bowl packed quite a bit of things in it for such a great price! The pork stew bento was good, but it wasn't as flavorful as the pork belly. I also got a thai tea, which tasted like that tea you get in a can. It wasn't bad, but way too sweet and left an aftertaste. The restaurant is located in its own little space with ample parking both in front and around the building. It's a little oddly configured, as the front entrance is not near either parking areas, but around the side facing onto the street. I walked around the building from the parking lot, getting anxious since I didn't see the door where I thought it was supposed to be. Inside, there's plenty of space to sit if you're dining in. I was able to grab my order from the front quickly and was back in my car all within five minutes. Overall, I'd come back and try a few other dishes that looked good, but only if I'm in the area as it's a bit of a drive.

    A friend and I wanted to try a taiwanese spot and we heard of Orange Square from mutuals. As you enter, there is a screen kiosk where you can view the menu and order your food. There are a variety of bento box styled meals and rice bowls to select from. The menu is also accessible on the hanging signs behind the register area. Once you order, it is self serve for seating arrangements. Each table has a number, and to be honest, I am not sure how they can tell where to deliver the food, but likely due to the lack of customers, they were able to spot where to drop the food off. Service was pretty quick, maybe maximum 8-10 minutes after ordering. Water and extra condiments are self-serve. My friend ordered the five spices chicken cutlet square, while I got the deluxe braised pork rice bowl. My friend enjoyed his chicken cutlet square, however for my braised pork rice bowl, I thought it was quite oily, overwhelming much of the flavor. By the nature of pork belly, which is quite fatty, most other places I am able to taste more of the flavor, but the shear amount of oily-ness was kind of a downer for me. They give you a lot of rice in the bowl as well, so the lacking flavor from the pork on top of the oily rice was not it for me. Overall, I would maybe try Orange Square again but would not order that rice bowl. It was just okay...

    Teriyaki chicken bowl

    I've had this place bookmarked for awhile. My daughter and son-in-law live in the area so I've been bugging them to try it with me but they've been resistant. Finally I just decided to go by myself and see if it lived up to the reviews. I came during lunch and it was a ghost town. I was literally the only customer there except for the Doordasher picking up a delivery order. Parking is plentiful except we just had a decent rain storm that left a large part under water. The interior is bright, modern and clean. When you walk in, you're met with menus posted on a glass partition at eyelevel along with an ordering kiosk. I've mentioned this before, and I'll mention it again. Ordering kiosks are so unfriendly. I did see someone poke their head out and smile at me, but that was the only customer service I received. I placed my order and waited. When my items were ready for pick up the employee literally said my number set my bag down on the counter and walked away. I was standing right In front of her. I could understand if they were really busy, but how hard is it to make your customer feel welcome? Needless to say, I grabbed my bag and off I went. Here's what I ordered: TERIYAKI CHICKEN BOWL $15++ White rice was cooked well and there was A LOT of it under the chicken. Along with the rice was some sautéed cabbage, two pieces of broccoli, one piece of red pepper and a single cherry tomato. Not sure if that was supposed to be a salad and a soy egg half. This part was fine but basic. Let's talk about the teriyaki chicken. There was a decent amount but why oh why is the slimy, mushy, fatty skin left on it? It completely grossed me out. I pulled as much off as I could but a few pieces slipped passed me and I just couldn't finish eating it. Sorry Orange Square. This was a big no for me.

    Came here for the very first time to try out some Vietnamese food. The food was very delicious and flavorful, it was bit on the sweeter side. Portion was generous. It was quite a busy restaurant with a very clean surrounding. They served the food very fast and placing order was very easy as it was all computerized. Would definitely come again. They had a very good parking just in front of the restaurant. This restaurant is located just next to the Santa Clara Library.

    Kayley C.

    We were passing by and decided to pop into this spot to try something new and we're glad we did. They had a lot of bento style options and the food was delicious. Service was quick and attentive. The place it self is big, but there were some concerns of cleanliness near the kitchen and in the bathroom.

    S02. Basil S&P Popcorn
    Alex L.

    I ordered the basil popcorn chicken and boba for take out on UberEats, they had a BOGO for the popcorn chicken and boba. (we ate a box in the car) Really good value, but the food was okay. Good portion size for the cost. The chicken was crispy, the batter was seasoned. At the store they have spices on the side that you can add to the chicken. Very standard, chicken was neither moist or dry, not a lot of flavor in the meat, probably needed to be marinated a bit longer maybe? For the value and portion size, can't complain. The milk tea is not as fragrant as other boba, it was on the darker side, but could not taste a lot of the notes that you usually get from assam tea. At least it was not watered down. The boba was soak in sugar and was on the sweeter side. Most of the boba had good texture a bit chew, but I had a few that were a bit dried up and hard, it lost its chewiness. Overall not too bad for the price.

    Braised Pork rice bowl
    Amy H.

    Tasty delicious food! Bit of a wait time but it's worthwhile. Braised pork chop rice bowl: 5/5 Got the food to go! The pork belly is extremely soft and melts in your mouth and the rice is plump and flavorful because it's absorbed the pork belly sauce. The egg is well marinated as well. The veggies are .. just veggies but they added a cute carrot star so that earns a few points in my book. C: The bowl held up well during transportation and the food was still enjoyable even when it got a little cold during the ride back home! Service: It did take a while for the food to get ready at the restaurant but there's plenty of room in the waiting area. Ambiance: Not heavily decorated. You're here for the food not the ambiance. There is a lot is seating available so feel free to come in groups. I heard the milk tea at this spot is tasty so I'll have to come back to try that.

    Cornish Hen - Thanksgiving promo
    Wincy Y.

    It's been long overdue, but I gave them another try after their opening and am now a regular customer. I usually get the chicken leg bento deal on Wednesdays, which is a great deal. The bento comes with a chicken leg, rice, and some small side dishes. The wait times are quite long on those days though, so I recommend ordering ahead of time online. They also do other holiday promotions such as the free boba refills and ice cream. Most of them are good deals, besides the Thanksgiving cornish chicken (which is on the smaller side for the price). Their classic boba tea is also less sweet compared to other places I've had, which I do like. Usually I get food to go, but they have kiosks to order and then you can grab a seat to dine in; everything is self served. Overall I would recommend trying Orange Square for some authentic Taiwanese food.

    Pork Knuckles Box and Chicken

    Quick service with a convenient to-go ordering system. Very well priced with good portions, and I appreciated the packaging. The highlight for me was the delicious cabbage side dish--super crunchy and flavorful. Overall, I was really happy with everything.

    I used to come herre last 2-3 years ago... used to be so delicous and good price for the square.... Jus recently come back today on 2026 - the price went up almost $4 more, the taste changed, they cooked it different, the pork belly usualy the whole big pieces, now it cutted into small squares... and so much oils, could really enjoy the sauce, the rice is dry too....

    Outside of square
    Yuki K.

    I've been wanting to try this place for probably 2 years but just never got around to doing so. After seeing the holiday surprise bag, I quickly took advantage by ordering two items we've been interested in - the basil S&P popcorn chicken snack and the pot roast beef brisket square. The set also came with a drink and I chose the "winter melon lemon aiyu (decaf") with 0% ice and 0% sugar. This was pretty good too and still mildly sweet. It does say "must have sugar" with 30% as the lowest option if I were to order it a la carte online, so I'm not certain if it the sweetness primarily came from the sugar rather than the fruits after all. The popcorn chicken is very well-seasoned, crispy outside, and juicy inside. Even after the 15-minute drive home, it retained a crisp. I'm pretty sure I clicked spicy but perhaps I misremembered as it didn't come with the spice powder on the side, and since everything was packaged well, I didn't notice. Pot roast beef brisket is incredibly tender and savory and came mixed with carrots, green beans, and daikon. The other sides were some broccoli, a cut of egg roll, a succotash of corn and edamame, and cabbage with red bell peppers and what seemed to be wood ear mushrooms. The egg roll and succotash were covered in some sort of sweet sauce that was a bit sticky. After leaving the box in the fridge, I noticed the sides had some gelatin in it (just like the meat) so they probably poured the sauce or liquid from the pot-roasted meat into the sides! Also as a side note, the container that the square now comes in says it's microwave-safe for up to 4 minutes. Will definitely return to try some of the other options!

    B05. Marinated Pork Chop Square
    Ashley Y.

    I've heard good things about this place, but maybe I chose the wrong bento or it was an off day. The pork chop was like 60% breading, which was unpleasant to eat and I ended up scrapping away all the breading. The meat was also really fatty. I did really like all the side dishes though and my friends who got the chicken leg one really enjoyed theirs. I think it's more of a takeout spot though - it was completely empty when we went but a lot of dashers came in and out.

Unfortunately, this most recent visit left a bad taste in our mouths- literally & figuratively!! Our party of 3 came here during the lunch rush and lucked out with being seated pretty quickly. Menus were provided but weren't needed because we essentially ordered the same exact dishes we did from our first visit. I kid you not, we were legitimately hooked! Order: Prawn Pad Thai x2 Green Curry [medium spice] w/ Chicken Thai Iced Tea Anchan Lemonade (Butterfly Pea Flower) The young gentleman took our order and repeated everything back. My sister requested to have our drinks brought out in take out cups as opposed to the glasses & our server said he could make it happen. We wait and wait and wait and wait. Food took a bit of time to come out but because our visit was in the peak of lunch rush, we expected that. What we didn't anticipate was such a long wait for our drinks. We wait and wait some more before speaking to 3 separate staff members confirming that our drinks were put in. Each and every time, the staff confirms the drinks were ordered and we were told they would be coming soon. Fast forward: Our food comes out and still no drinks. Mind you there aren't any alcoholic beverages or anything that should take too long to concoct. Again, we ask our initial server about the drinks @ this point, the young man remembers and immediately gets to working on the drinks. Drinks finally come out [not in take out cups] and while the Thai tea tasted good, my lemonade was far from that. This young man seemed new and I was trying really hard to be patient. I told him the drink was not right and he immediately takes the cup back to add some lemon. The drink now comes back with a lighter hue on top and yet it still tasted like trash. The server offered to remake it and while I thanked him, I requested that he just remove the drink completely from our tab. It was 100% clear that he didn't know how to make the infamous lemonade. Things continued to go downhill when we had to repeatedly request for the chili assortment. It took one too many pleas for that to even happen. The lady at the neighboring table got the sudden urge/craving for Thai tea once she noticed our cup. She places an order with the Asian lady with long hair and the lady happens to bring the drink to our table. We politely explain that the drink was not ours and she immediately gets defensive telling us that we had just placed the order with her. Her tone and all of the many hiccups that had already been going on set my sister off who responded firmly. She immediately corrected her [noting the drink was ordered through the adjacent table, not us]. I'm so sad this 2nd visit was so disastrous. I never would have imagined a 5 star review would drop within a matter of days! For a restaurant who regularly deals with long lines of patrons, the establishment seemed to resemble a chicken with its head cut off. The only person so did their job to a T was the chef's in the kitchen.

My aunt asked if we could sit at a regular table instead, and the hostess asked whether we had any medical reason. I felt offended at that moment, and I also believe it's inappropriate and potentially unlawful to ask that kind of question. On top of that, while we were still eating, they brought us the bill halfway through the meal. Even though we understand there is a 90-minute dining limit, the whole experience made us feel like they were trying to rush us out. This is definitely not a place we would come back to or recommend to friends.

    We went to a restaurant called Sorae today after my husband highly recommended it, and it was such…read morea great experience. The food was delicious, but what really made our visit special was our server, Joy. She was so friendly and welcoming that I honestly thought she might be the owner. She explained the menu so well and was genuinely happy to see people enjoying their popular dakgalbi, which made the whole experience feel even warmer. And the fried rice at the end tasted exactly like the kind I used to eat during my school days in Korea -- so nostalgic and comforting. We'll definitely be back. Next time, I want to try the gamjatang!

    We tried the beef combo at Seorai Korean BBQ. The staff cooks the meat for you at the table, which…read moreis fine, but our server wasn't paying close attention to the grill. As a result, the brisket came out badly overcooked--dry, tough, and chewy. Unfortunately, the quality of the meat was not on par with other Korean BBQ restaurants we've visited, especially considering how expensive this place is. We had high hopes, but the meat was very disappointing. We came early when it wasn't busy at all (we were basically the second table), so it wasn't a rush issue. On the positive side, the ambiance is nice and I really liked their unique banchan selection. Because of the meat quality and the high prices for what we got, I won't be coming back. There are way too many better options in the area to spend that kind of money for two people.

    Pocha spot in a deserted plaza. Came here on a Monday night and there was no one. Pocha vibes and…read morethey have group and bar seating. They also have a Photo Booth here. Good service. Started off with a pitcher of terra poured into cold glasses. Good selection of drinks and a variety of food. Got sausage and rice skewers. Had a spicy sauce to it and the rice skewers were a fried rice roll. Corn cheese was great and broiled perfectly for a crispy cheese crust. Supreme chicken was solid and had similar sauce as the other dish. The mala rose tteokbokki was interesting and had a creamy but a small numbing flavor to it. The seafood pancake was crispy.

    Don't get me wrong - service and ambiance is absolutely top tier and amazing! Cozy, warm, intimate…read morevibes to make memories with friends, and very quick, attentive, personable, and accommodating staff. They were also very gracious when our party got a little rambunctious! Love that they are open late. But I really have to be honest about the food. Hits -tofu soup -army stew -sausage & rice cake skewer -kimchi rice (small portion) -sweet potato fries -"garlic" fries - more on the sweet side, the seasoning powder is crack -the apricot soju Needs improvement -Short rib kalbi, for $25 the portion was only 6-8 pieces, also cut thin & quite dry. We ordered three of these and some of it was fine. Good flavor though! -chicken wings, just wasn't crispy -clam soup, the blandest I ever had, no seafood flavor, maybe made with frozen/precooked clams -corn cheese, very oily and tasted like old, stale oil at that Much love to this establishment, we really appreciated everything! Great vibes
