The café was clean and airy, well lit with lots of windows. The service was friendly and attentive. Lots of selections on the touchless menu. Fairly priced with good serving portions. But the food itself is kinda hit or miss. Perhaps we’ll tried other items the menu next time and be a better judge of it.

I was here for a quick lunch as I had a meeting to return to. It's a nice and cozy place. There's a QR code menu from which I ordered black pepper beef with rice and my friend ordered duck rice. We ordered the honey dew drink. The service is great and pretty fast. They have an outside sitting as well. They opened at 11:30 am and we reached just five after. The food was so delicious, I will highly recommend you to try black pepper beef rice. I really enjoyed my lunch and yes they take

Craving Taiwanese beef noodle soup for dinner, we visited this restaurant. We had lunch there and loved their beef noodle. However, when we arrived at 6 pm on Saturday, we noticed the owner was at dinner, and the restaurant had no one there. We asked if the restaurant was closing soon, and the waitress, with an embarrassed face, said no. Hmm, doesn't sound right. We ordered beef noodle soup, fried tofu, and sliced pork with garlic. The tofu was average (it can't be wrong, as it's so easy to make, haha), but the sliced pork wasn't right; it should have come with fresh garlic, but it did not. The beef noodle arrived, and I noticed the soup wasn't hot enough. The beef was dry and even tasted gamey, meaning it wasn't cooked well or wasn't fresh. We were disappointed with the dinner, and I believe we won't come back.

Low-key Taiwanese restaurant which serves excellent Taiwanese cuisine, plus all the tea / bubble tea options that has made Hanlin one of the most famous chains in Taiwan. The three cups chicken is tasty, but be careful about the peppers...They're pretty hot. Drinks are solid, whether you go with green tea, black tea, or any of the bubble tea variants. Seating is limited, but comfortable, especially with the warm tones of the wooded seating and tables. Servers are competent and will help you with what ever you need.
Make sure to layer up when coming here on a cold day. We ordered 3 dishes. We had the Taiwanese beef noodle soap. Well, it was supposed to be a soup, but the flavor warps you back to the days parents would torture their children by forcing them to eat soap. Luckily, we snapped back to reality after 2 agonizing bites and set the bowl aside to sanitize the room. When asked about the flavor, the waiter said it was a "house special"... He thought we were joking with him, but food this bad is not a joke. I thought the soup was like a hospital than a house special.The shrimp fried rice had cold shrimp, but at least tasted like rice! ...Tipped my 15% because I support small businesses, but is Taiwanese food this bad?

Dont get the ground pork noodle soup. Get it dry instead. The soup version is way too watery while the dry version packs a flavour punchOther good stuff i tried is the beef noodle soup. Pork chop noodle has very good pork chop but the soup was too herbal and bland for

Excellent! We love the ambience and the decor! The food was good too, and we were craving Taiwanese dishes. The waitresses were also nice as well, and it was starting to get busy already early on in the evening around 5 pm! There is a nice seating area outside, and the community feel is very safe and family friendly. There are plenty of parking spaces too. It felt like we stepped into another world with the stylized decor and ambience! Very traditional but calm and welcoming!

Good basic Taiwanese food. Service is friendly and prompt. Good seating options inside and out, with a great neighborhood location near Cupertino library. Prices are a bit steep, $65 for 2 meals, 1 drink, and 1 side.

Their service is a joke. They first asked me to pay for an online order that I’d already paid for. Then they didn’t call my name when the food was ready. My drink was prepared incorrectly. At last, there was strong passive aggressiveness upon a simple request for utensils. Why should I give these people my business?
