Family dinner
Kendell B.

My family and I have enjoyed coming to Taiwan Restaurant for over ten years. We made a reservation for Saturday night and when we arrived, we were greeted and promptly seated. Our server was very friendly and helpful with assisting with allergies. We ordered the honey walnut chicken and needed it made without cornstarch. She suggested to have the chicken sautéed. This ended up being super yummy and fresh! We also got Mongolian prawns, pineapple fried rice, wor wonton soup, and Mushu pork. The Mushu Pork is so fresh and the vegetables are delicious- they don't get lost in the sauce. Love that they have family dinner options available. Lots of choices! The restaurant is very clean and the tables are all nicely set. I would recommend for a date, a family meal, or for takeout. It's an awesome choice! Can't wait to go back next time we are in the Bay.

I had dinner tonight with my family and the food as always was amazing but the new server that was working tonight was completely out of line I tipped over 15% and he had the audacity to come to our table to tell me I should tip him more when he infact provided terrible service there were three waiters and we had the luck to sit in his section he never came to check if we needed anything we had to keep flagging him down for help and keep reminding him we needed things

Beef with snow peas. They had a nice crunch.

Dinner tonight was Chinese takeout from Taiwan Restaurant in Willow Glen. I've eaten there a handful of times over the years and thought the food was okay, but it never particularly stood out to me. Until tonight! I had pork egg foo young and beef with snow peas and it was WOW. So good. Fresh and hot with lots of flavor. I will be eating there much more often from now on.

Update: door dashed GF food and had no issues :) looks like it was a mistake and hopefully it doesn't happen again!

Reserved a table in advance for a birthday dinner. Staff were welcoming and accommodated us at the large round table with a large Lazy Susan. The ambience in the restaurant is very authentic, I would say the best in San Jose. The food is always on point. Everyone was a first timer but me. They loved the food. I wasn't able to take a photo of every entrée because it all went so fast. The staff were so helpful they brought out our birthday cake we provided playing the birthday song on their house speakers! Nice touch! They cut the cake for us and served it. Very nicely done making my family feel special!

Excellent flavors. Friendly staff. I did pickup both times. They thoughtfully called to check when I was late to pick up the food.

Mongolian Beef.  Like nothing you've ever ordered before named Mongolian beef.
Oliver C.

First time back in over 10 years. Hot and sour soup, was more sour than spicy hot. Definitely needed some white pepper or something. The Asian chicken salad was pretty sad. Yikes. Don't order the Mongolian beef. It's beef w zucchini. Tastes nothing like any other restaurants Mongolian beef. Wish I looked up pictures before I ordered, so I'd have known to order something else. Too much tenderizer used on the beef. It had a soft chicken feel rather than a more firm beef texture. And you can see it's way too wet / saucy. The kung pao chicken was ok. Not sure I'll be coming back to try again. FYI. Seems like most of the lunch specials are close to $15.95 before tax and tip.

We had reunion dinner with our friends in San Jose, first time visit but I was very impressed with the Chinese style environment and the delicious foods. The service is great too. We will definitely visit again.

We had their food catered. I would say it was average. Pretty bland. I would recommend Hong's in Saratoga.

Was this business previously taiwaneserestaurant.com?

I do not believe that Taiwan restaurant ever use that domain. Their domain name has been taiwanrestaurantsj.com for a very long time.

Do they still offer the Sunday champagne brunch? The website has changed and it doesn't say.

What are your most popular dishes?

We love Taiwan. Our family favorite dishes are the beef chow fun, the orange chicken, the pot stickers and the chicken chow mien. I do not think you could go wrong with any of their dishes!

The combination of meat, veggies and the exterior crispy pancake created such an outstanding tasting effect. The lamb dish had one of the most tender meats I've tasted. The brown sugar sticky rice cake was soft inside and hard outside; with just the right amount of sweetness. Service was ok. They should've been kinder and more grateful. I liked how they have a sign posted on window saying that gratuity is at free will and you don't pay for the wrong dish they send to you. It showed accountability. That's why we keep coming back, for now.

There was no line for us to be seated. I was able to flag down a server to seat us since they seem to be extremely busy cleaning tables and servicing others. The hotpots are full of ingredients and the broth has always been tasty. Unfortunately, the meats seem to be overcooked. Prices have been going up over the years where only the monthly special is enticing for the value. Servers were friendly and checked in on us, but it took 25 minutes for our food to show up at our table after we ordered. The only consistent experience I've had are the oranges at the end of the meal. They are always amazingly sweet, juicy, and comes off the peel easily. I don't usually enjoy oranges, but I love the ones HomeEat offers! Will be back if in the area, but hope kitchen service will be quicker in the future.

Jeff, the chef (rhymes!), was kind and welcoming. He could tell it was our first time and went out of his way to check in, give advice on what to order, and how to enjoy it. The wagyu and chicken soup were both outstanding -- flavorful, hearty, and healthy. Here's the part that took it over the top for me: they had accidentally forgotten our fried tofu. I happened to be nearby this morning and stopped in, fully expecting them to ask for proof of purchase or be resistant. Instead, they just handed it to me. No questions. That's top-notch customer service. I'm now a promoter and will definitely keep coming back. Highly recommend!

Staff are friendly, spot is pretty small but kid-friendly and self-serve utensil tables. The Wagyu Soup Noodle bowl was super bland. So much so that my partner had to add a ton of chili sauce, and I had to add other seasoning toppings. Would be open to trying the beef noodle soup next time but the Waygu soup bowl wasn't it. Pig ears were pretty good but sliced super thin.. thinner than the onions..
