I really liked their fan tuan... but on my third visit today on a pick-up order. I found this lil fella inside. Pretty sure a WHOLE FLY isn't part of the ingredient. read more

Tao Rice Roll - Taiwanese Near Me - Plano, Texas

Glad to see a Chinese breakfast place in the Plano area! I ordered the eel roll, Taiwan roll, egg bomb roll, pancake, small bowl noodles, fried bread stick, sweet soy milk, and salty soy milk. All of the rolls I've tried were good. I really like the texture of the rice and the amount of sweetness of it. If I had to choose one roll, I would choose the eel roll in a heart beat. I love the flavor of it and the texture of the inside filling. The pancake was also enjoyable. The noodles weren't anything special in my opinion and tasted heavily of shaoxing wine(?). The donut was alright but not crispy enough. Both of the soy milk were okay. Overall, I would definitely come back for their eel roll and to try other flavors as well read more

for now i will give this place 2 stars. tldr: this is a snack store. walking in, it was noticeably empty. the tables are pushed to the side w a wide area for walking in. we went up to order and ordered a pancake, a duck soup, wonton soup, and xiao long baos (soup dumplings) we were originally going to order the rice roll, but was unable to due to a misunderstanding. they brought the food over with utensils. (keep in mind: their english is not the best, so maybe show pics of what you want?) duck soup 3/10 : had a clear and refreshing taste to it, however it was bland. the vegetables were fine, but the duck was very dry. we ended up taking this togo. xiao long baos 6.5/10: this was the highlight of the visit. they were hot and small with a simple meat filling. the sauce they came w was good and sour, however when i asked for chili oil, they only gave me the same sauce. pancake 3/10 : this was dry, and flavorless. it only tasted good when i ate the sausage in combination with the pancake. it was hard to eat & the fillings were not evenly distributed. however this was a decent portion. wonton soup 5/10: these were tiny wontons in soup. it was good at first, but the dish didnt rlly have flavor. total for the order: $27 something when u take an item togo, you have to give the item back to the staff for them to pack it up. there is no designated spot really for trays. this is a walk up and order establishment. im not sure if this is how the dishes are supposed to taste, but we left hungrier than we came. read more

This was egg bomb rice roll. It had an entire fried egg, pork meat floss, Taiwanese sausage and pickles. It was delicious! read more

Saw lots of review and hype about this place so had to check it out for ourselves. Needless to say, this place fell pretty flat. The pancake to it's credit was hot and crispy, but was lacking in any real substance. The staff also wasn't very familiar with their own menu and we were told they didn't have sweetened soy milk only to later see other folks order it. Would be willing to give it a 2nd try, but the 1st visit was sorely disappointing to say the least. read more

Not very good In my opinion. They are a little slow and a bit rude. There may be better alternatives.

while pricey, they've got lots of fan tuan options. it's been really hard finding something in the area with rice rolls like this and i'm glad for this addition to the plaza. service wasn't THAT slow when i was there, but there were also only two other customers and they seemed pretty fully staffed in the kitchen. their crispy pancake bing was also really good too, and i don't usually enjoy that stuff. hope these guys stick around! read more

This is my favorite breakfast food! Highly recommend the eel, tuna, or Taiwan roll! The ambiance is pretty chill and the service is straightforward. They are open every day but Sunday and close at 3:30 pm, so come early! read more

How can you run out of purple rice so early in the morning? The Houston location does it better. The pancake needs more sauce and more option other than sausages. The rice roll is missing the crunch factor for me. But overall I was satisfied w the food. read more

This place is a hidden gem, the food is amazing all the rice rolls are great, not a single bad option on their menu for an amazing price. It's not really a sit down place but its great. read more

Great place to get an early morning bite before other Asian breakfast options are opened. Cute decor and easy parking. Each roll is made to order and very fresh. Menu is a little confusing in English and having more photos would be helpful. read more

I really want to like this place but really need to work on consistency and cleanliness. I've been here three times and it always look a little dirty, sticky floors and third time I got a fly tucked away in my roll. read more

Tao Rice Roll - Egg pancakes with extra protein... - Taiwanese Near Me - Plano, Texas

We like them all! There are a variety of rice rolls to choose from. We bought one of each, the sticky rice, and the fried break sticks, too. Everything makes fresh from scratch. Soy milk (sweet or salty) is tasty. Definitely will return for more!! read more

I agree with some of the reviewers that the wait times can get long. For example, I placed an order around 11am with an estimated pick up time half an hour later. I showed up 45 min later and the food was still being made. One hour turnaround. I also wanted to try the salted soy milk but they ran out by noon. Food wise though it was solid. I got the Taiwan roll, traditional roll, and eel roll. Great flavors. I would have to go back to try out the other snacks. read more

Very delicious, great flavor and texture. I was recommended to visit this establishment and I was not disappointed at all. In fact, I can't wait to tell more people about ur, kind of similar to how I love to tell people that Jesus loves them and He is coming back very soon! read more

Tao Rice Roll - Vegetarian Rice Roll - Taiwanese Near Me - Plano, Texas

Love to have some Taiwanese breakfast! My favorite is the Tao roll, one is a little too small for me so I always get 2 for lunch, next time I want to try other breakfast item! read more

Was out doing errands with my parents and this place caught my eye as I was trying to find a spot to park. The wait was kinda long because it was super busy. But when I got the food, the beast was slain and I stuffed my face til I was rolled out to the car by my parent. I got 2 of everything, all of them was great but the eel roll stood out. We washed everything down with some soy milk. read more

Really enjoy the rice rolls and other food items. Really miss this type of food from Taiwan... It's a rarity and very delicious!

Dont bother to go order take out or dine in. Their focus is on delivery order ONLY. Stopped by Saturday, there were only two groups of people in front me, and when i approach to order, the gentlemen told me that i have to wait 40 min to 50 min for a rice roll, since they will prepare for delivery order first. So they take delivery order as priority, if you wanna try this place, order on third party, AVOID go to order yourself. read more

I had purple rice eel roll. Omg !! after a couple bites I felt in love. The roll was so flavorful with eel and dried shredded pork inside. Intended to have only half but I couldn't stop myself and ended eating the whole roll. And I still want more. I will def go back. Cashiers were friendly and they quickly had my roll done within 5 min. read more

Not bad! If you're looking for a Japanese style rice ball this is not it. It's a different style and expect it to be different. You only really need one or two to be full as it's kinda heavy food. The meat is tasty, it just lacks the additional seaweed and furikake. Then again this is not a Japanese rice ball. I think it can use seasoning and the furikake is what gives it that bang. Made me full with just one and I ordered four! Tasty meat. Give it a try, you might like it. read more

Was looking for something different and this place hit the spot. I got a Tao Roll and Beef Roll. Both were tasty! Only downside was the wait but I wasn't in a rush so no big deal for me today but it would make me hesitant to drop by under different circumstances. read more

Taiwan roll, Eel Rice Roll, Tao roll are our favorite!

Part of my on the go breakfast rotation. Great handhelds to eat while driving. Which I dont recommend. I've only tried the Traditional and Taiwan which I recommend to be a good introduction to this place or if you are indecisive. read more

Overall I think the food is okay. I actually ordered 3 pancakes with 3 different types of meats per pancake, but the person that took the order added all the meats in each pancake and it tasted disgusting. It took 20 minutes for the food to come out. I think it doesn't help that I'm not Chinese and I can't speak Chinese. read more

Pretty good. Better than any Fan Tuan I have in California. Staff is new, still adjusting the new environment but great food.

Came here for authentic rice balls. Fresh, great flavor, I have tried 3 of their rice balls (traditional, house brand, and egg bomb) on 3 different occasions, quality is consistent! The sticky rice is done right! Saturday morning is quite busy, but regular days are good. Next time I'll venture out for other categories other than rice balls. read more

This place is amazing. There will be a wait time on the weekends as from what I can see they have a limited amount of staff. I'm a patient person, considering that they don't even have their own official sign on the building, I don't think they knew how busy they were going to be. At one point they did have to turn away folks from placing orders which good for them. Yea ~ that's how good it is especially for the price I waited 30 minutes to get my food. Which I felt was a decent time considering when I got there, there were 6 other people already there and 2 people working as fast as they can to get the orders out. Love the soy milk and the eel roll and shamelessly order almost weekly read more

Pretty good meal if you want something on the go or quick to fuel the whole day with your carbs and protein with the rice burrito. I don't like the boiled egg it's disgusting it's better with the omelette stuff inside. read more

My experience wasn't great customer service wise. When I got up to order the cashier answered their personal phone so I stood there awkwardly for a few minutes. The employee that took over was nice. The food quality varies, one roll I ordered was really good but the other had stale/old rice. My order came out in a decent amount of time. read more

I try this place because of reviews. They only had two people working so service is slow. The rice roll was how I remember them to be in Taiwan. Very good. The portions are small for the price but still very good. I would go back. Didn't get to post a pic of my rice roll and fried chinese donut and sweet soy milk. It was good. I will go back to try different rice rolls. read more

authentic taiwanese rice rolls and soy milk! very nostalgic and love going here. the eel rice roll and taiwanese rolls are one of my favorites. the service is sometimes slow as they're pretty busy in the mornings. read more

Love their rice rolls. Full of flavor and stuffing. Great for lunch or breakfast. Their wonton is light and the wrap texture is nice.

Rice is not cooked properly or not the right type of rice used to make rice rolls. it's hard , not soft like real authentic rice rolls. Wait time is long even just 5-6 customers in the store. It took about 30 minutes to get our food after we placed the order. Definitely not go back. read more
