We were hankering for "to go" Chinese food, and we have driven by this restaurant plenty of times as it's located in a busy shopping center we frequent in Northwest Reno. We decided to give it a try and called in an order. The lady that took our phone order was pleasant and took our order quickly, even asking us what time we would like for pick-up. Our food was ready for pick-up when we arrived. And once again the service was prompt and friendly. The restaurant is clean and open. It has a large aquarium in the front and plenty of seating. The food we had was good, nicely prepared and tasty. The Ho Fun noodles were nice and firm, not mushy. The fried rice and pot stickers were both nicely done. Will definitely return and tried their other dishes. read more

I ordered the Szechuan Eggplant w/steamed rice. I can with choice of soup, I opted for Hot and Sour and a yummy little egg roll. The food was all plated together in styrofoam, hot, delicious and the perfect portion for the price. The woman who helped me when I can in was friendly and prompt. The dining area was clean with a nice large fish tank to enjoy if dining in. It would be nice if they had paper Togo instead of styrofoam. That would be my only recommendation. I am looking forward to trying a few other of their dishes. Cheers! read more

Really very much enjoyed this family owned restaurant. I was greeted kindly by the owners and spoken to with kindness. That's rare and it seemed genuine and wholesome. I didn't stay to get seated, but instead took my meal to go. Still, the ambiance was charming. I wish them well. read more

TLDR: Decent food. Has some non-ABC chinese food. This place is more like the Chinese restaurants in the bay. Not too Americanized. Sure, there are some, but they have other dishes like Singaporean Vermicelli. We chickened out and ordered the non-spicy version, the Taiwanese Vermicelli. I kinda wished we tried the spicy one. The taiwanese one wasn't bad, I thought. But it certainly doesn't taste like a non-spicy Singaporean dish. My wife didn't like it though. I miss the numbing spice. We also ordered an assorted veggie, but with more broccoli. The vegetables were salty, as normal. Just wasn't that much of it. The garlic sauce just tasted a little off. read more

I found a metal bristle in my fried rice which is tragic as I really like this place. Some good authentic Chinese food here but food safety and sharp metal bits are a killer read more

Not good. Not good at all. Not sure why you Reno people in this area gives this 4.2 stars. This was not as good as the bad Chinese restaurants in east Tucson. I had the Kung pao chicken. Flavor was not good, chicken was not tough but not tender and didn't taste that good and not fresh, veggies were weird with green cabbage the main filler. The sauce wasn't tasty. The hot and sour soup, same. Not so good. I had two bites of the Kung pao. Had a third bite just to make sure. And threw it away. Same for the soup. Waste of money. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Tucson-top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs! read more

Taiwan Restaurant was amazing from start to finish! The food was flavorfully fresh and our waitress was pleasantly kind. The restaurant itself is very clean and I enjoyed the brightly colored decor. I recommend the shrimp chow mein and Mongolian beef. I believe I have found my new go-to Taiwanese cuisine stop!

This restaurant is FANTASTIC! I went there this evening and got the House Chow Mein, which is absolutely great. As a food delivery driver, I see fast Chinese food joints where the food is cooked somewhere far away, shipped to the store and heated up on a buffet-like steam table. Yuck! Taiwan makes everything fresh, their service is very friendly and my food was done before I knew it. I would strongly urge people to give Taiwan Restaurant a try, like me you'll want to come back again! read more

We are driving thru and I just want some comfort food, stopped in to order some takeout. I am quite surprised that a restaurant named 'Taiwan Restaurant', the owners speak Cantonese and not Mandarin. The food is very similar to most Chinese take out place. The food tastes good. What I really like is the lady who works at the counter. I am not sure if this is her business. I could tell she is a very hard worker. She is very busy fulfilling orders but still remained very friendly. I ordered take out but the restaurants have seats for dine in as well. The place looks clean and spacious. read more

I had ordered take out from here and when I went in to pick up my food there was a fun fish tank inside that had some large koi fish which was neat. The staff were very friendly! I decided to get a Thai tea and she had me pick out my favorite colored straw which I thought was cute and it was very tasty as well! They have a good meal deal for 2 people that has decent amount of food. The fried rice that was included was very good! I got the chicken and broccoli which was decent. I wish it had more sauce, but that seems to be a hit or miss in a lot of Chinese food places I've been to. Overall I would recommend! read more

Great food. Amazing service. Lots of options for vegetarians or carnivores. Loved the Kung pow chicken.

Tast like xxxx, price unacceptable, they need send owner back to Taiwan retaining. Basic they just want $$$$$ do not care about food taste

Visiting family for the holidays and came here last night for dinner - always so good and something I look forward to when coming back to Reno. The sweet owners were telling us that they had some upset customers over incorrect pricing on yelp right before we arrived even though the prices have been changed for over a year now. So I'm updating my review from 2020 because the menu prices have changed to reflect the rising food costs. I didn't think to snap a new photo of the updated prices, but if you have questions on what they are, give the restaurant call. Thanks for supporting a small business!! read more

I ordered the Taiwan family cuisine. THIS THE WORST CHINESE FOOD IVE EVER GOT!! Panda Express is better than this place!! For charging that much for these portions are atrocious!! The food was cold, the bbq pork rib was stale. The only thing they got right was the soup. I will never come back here again. read more

We hopped in on a whim one afternoon, my husband dying for some hot sour soup. I'm not gonna lie, I was a little disappointed everything online had the daily specials for all day, only to find out when we got there it's now from 11-3. But we decided to get the Taiwan family meal instead. The appetizers were delicious, my kids loved the Rangoons and my husband enjoyed both of our soups. I thought their fried rice and chow mein were both very tasty and fresh. I got the sesame chicken which was very delicious, their chicken was quality, and the sauce was thick and definitely made the whole meal for me. Definitely glad we stopped in and can't wait to visit again. read more

I remember going to Taiwan Restaurant as a kid to pick up Dry Beef Ho Fun with my mom. It has been in Reno for over 20 years and the food still tastes just as good. It is run by the nicest family. The have always given large, affordable portions and everything is made fresh. Going back now, I have been able to try more of their menu. The best thing about Taiwan Restaurant is how many unique dishes they have. I have yet to find other places in town that offer some of the thing they do. One of the biggest highlights is the paper chicken appetizer. So good! The chicken is tender and flavorful. Another of my favorites are the duck dishes. While it has been getting more common lately, it was always difficult to find whole duck dishes in Reno since they usually had to be picked up from Sacramento. Both the Crispy and the Roasted duck are delicious! Both have their distinct flavors so it wouldn't hurt to try both. As always, the Dry Beef Ho Fun still tastes as good as it did 15 years ago, and you can't go wrong with the potstickers and crab rangoon. There is definitely something for everyone on the menu so bring the whole family or take it to go to share. Currently, the owners are trying to retire so what better time than now to check out the restaurant before it's gone! read more

WTF. NEVER AGAIN! I am on the toilet now having eaten an hour ago. Chicken wing appetizer was spoiled chicken and tasted rancid. Chicken curry had a staple in it. Tomato Beef Chow Mein was made with Ketchup. Egg Foo Young was flavorless slop. This place went from 5 star to 0. I will never go back. If you go you better have a lot of toilet paper. Ugh! I will say the service is excellent. Waitress is wonderful. read more

Ordered salt & pepper fish, shrimp fried rice, eggplant dish, egg flower soup. Fish was nice and hot. Everyone enjoyed it...it was an off menu request. It was a tad on the saltier side but still good. Fried rice. Standard but I'd prefer without peas and carrots...will request without those next time. Eggplant it was good. Standard oily dry fried then stirfried..tates was fine..even better with their home made chili sauce. Soup standard. Overall a very standard up to par mom/pop restaurant. Fairly authentic (minus the peas/carrot..that's not). Overall, food was good, lady was nice, portions were decent. I would return. read more

Great food. Vegan options. Friendly service. Talented chef. Nicely seasoned food. Also food comes pretty fast.

I HIGHLY recommend this place. Everything I ordered was so flavorful. They have the best crab ragoons. And the shrimp fried rice blew me away. read more

I got the chowmain with chicken and a Thai tea boba with regular sweetness. The food was super good and seasoned perfectly. The best part though is their house-made hot sauce that added the perfect kick. As for the Thai Tea Boba, I thought it hit the spot. The people who work there are super nice and helpful when choosing something to eat. While I did get my food to go. I will definitely consider staying and eating there as the place was kept super clean. Overall a great first experience. Will definitely be returning. read more

We ordered pickup-the food was ready, hot, and very tasty. We will be back! We ordered hot and sour, Mongolian beef, and a chicken dish. They were very good and appropriately spicy. read more

Food was absolutely delicious! You can't go wrong with the dinner for two meal deal! The low price was more than worth all the food you get.

We've walked past this restaurant a hundred times - on our way to Port of Subs and Safeway. And, finally, we decided to give it a try - after our friends said how good it is. We popped in for lunch - walked past the aquarium filled with koi. We ordered off the "All Day Special" menu. I ordered the Kung Pao ($6.95) and my husband ordered the Mongolian Beef ($7.50). Included choice of 2 soups (Egg Flower or Hot & Sour), Egg Roll and rice (steamed or fried). My Kung Pao was generously topped with peanuts and was full of tender chicken pieces and a variety of vegetables (carrots, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, bell pepper, onion, celery). The Mongolian Beef was very tasty, too. The only "miss" for us was the fried rice - so next time, we will order the steamed rice. Excellent service and generous portions - we will be back! read more

Called and ordered a bunch of food for pickup and everything was great! The portions were huge and tasty! My only complaint is the chow mein seemed like it had a lot of pepper in it, it was super spicy!

Taiwan Restaurant had great food, but a staid, desolate atmosphere under its previous owners who sold the business earlier this year. New management has continued the quality while brightening-up the amply sized interior, including at the entrance a wide aquarium filled with fish that are now approaching koi-size, so they're eating well, too. Taiwan existed virtually anonymously for some years, but in 2019 drew a slew of attention after the ownership couple's daughter took to Twitter in search of a buyer so her parents could retire. A story in the Reno Gazette-Journal brought further light to the family's predicament: https://www.rgj.com/story/life/food/2019/03/25/coowner-taiwan-restaurant-reno-ill-parkinsons-cant-afford-retirement/3239217002/ My current Top-Two, convenient Far East restaurants are in West Reno, across the street (McCarran Boulevard) from each other: Taiwan and Silver Chopsticks, which also features Vietnamese selections. The latter has pleasant table service, while the former is vital to a three-stop package including Safeway for groceries and the thankfully detached, bargain-priced Safeway filling station. While the business carries on admirably with its facelift, the aquarium water is getting, I daresay, green around the gills. A fifth star is offered if the next passage through Taiwan's portals reveals the fishies frolicking in fresh, clear water. read more

I ordered the Taiwan dinner for 2 or more and I was blown away by the value. We got Wor Won Ton soup, Foil Chicken, Egg Rolls, and fried Won Tons just for the appetizer. Then came out House fried rice and house chow mein followed by 2 entrees of your choice out of 40 different options. We chose Mandarin Chicken and Curry Chicken. Everything was fabulous. The waitress was filling our cups every few minutes, no lack of attention here. By far the most attentive, friendliest Chinese restaurant I've been to here in Reno. Can't wait to come back next time. read more

A Sunday afternoon running errands found me in the same mall as this restaurant. This was an occassion where I was feeling adventurous. Let's try someplace new. The Yelp rating was promising. Plus I love Chinese and am always hoping to find a new nearby lunch place. The parking is plentiful as it is located at a strip mall. The interior is uninspired...white walls with a few hanging pictures. The ceiling tiles near the kitchen are discolored. I was greeted by a very sweet old woman who took my order promptly. The menu is very American Chinese. I went with the Szechaun Beef special which included an egg roll and either egg drop or hot and sour soup. I took my order to go. Despite keeping it flat, sauce had run through the edges of the to go box making a mess in the bag. When I popped the top I discovered the entree was sitting in a half inch of sauce. This was even after some had run off into the two smaller compartments which held the rice and egg roll. The entree itself was average. However I like the fact it was more than just a "meat" entree. It contained onions, peppers, carrots, bamboo shoots, and water chestnuts. I used the rice to soak up for of the sauce. However my egg roll had been completely drowned so there was no point of adding sweet and sour sauce. The soup was good but was completely forgotten when I bit into a chewy fortune cookie. The good...The price point for the lunch special is great. You get a lot of food. Veggies are present. The bad...My meal (if I had eaten in) could not have been plated with that much sauce/juice without running over the edges. Therefore the cook elected to shortcut when he dumped it into my to go box. It was a shortcut which caused a sticky mess and ruined my appetizer by the time I got home. Considering I was the only person in the place at the time, there's no excuse for this. This was a case where I had such high hopes. I love finding a new "go to" for cheap Chinese. This place missed the mark. With several other places to eat in the same mall, this place will be a pass in the future. read more

I had been curious about this place and finally tried them out Service was fast and friendly. I tried an "all day " special that consisted of Hunan chicken, fried rice, egg roll and hot and sour soup Could not beat the price and while not quite the flavor i was looking for (more like a Szechuan chicken with a hint of Hunan spices, it was still very good I will come back to try crispy duck and pineapple duck if i get over to this part of town again read more

Yesterday I stopped in around 430 or 5 PM. I was surprised that it was not busy given the good reviews. I ordered potstickers and chow fun to go. The nice lady at the cash register offered me water or tea while I waited. I declined, and she pressed again in a friendly way, so I had a cup of green tea. It was not too long of a wait, and I finished my tea right when the to go containers were ready. The potstickers were large and delicious, especially with their dipping sauce that has a very slight bit of spice to it. The chow fun was also good. I love the wide flat noodles. The food stayed hot in my car for like a half an hour and it still tasted great. I will be back! read more

My wife and I just ordered takeout from Taiwan Restaurant for the first time tonight, and it was delicious to say the least. The new owners reopened the restaurant about 3 weeks ago and we are glad they did because we found our new favorite Chinese restaurant in Reno.

I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Chinese food. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you! read more
