Stop by this place twice back from LAX. Nice to have some comfort food for breakfast after a long flight. It's a bit overpriced. But what isn't nowadays.

It’s great that there’s a dedicated Taiwanese breakfast. But this place is ridiculously overpriced, so I rarely come here despite I live walking distance from here. I go to 99 ranch on culver for same thing if not better for nearly half the price.

It’s expensive and tastes bad. The fried frozen dumplings can be called pot stickers. The soy milk is lighter than the instant ones. The fried dough sticks are soft. The only thing that is edible is the carrot cake. I really don’t know why there are so many people queuing up. I won’t come here again.

The smelliest restroom in Irvine. It has never improved since it opened to today. Sitting in the dining area, the smell of the toilet kept coming out. I only care about making money, which is very excessive. Also known as a famous store????

Good place for craving Taiwanese breakfast.Kid-friendliness: Has highchairs
The food was okay, not bad. Rice rolls were pretty good, others (sweet soybean milk and 燒餅）were average. A lil over price, but it the take out took too long and was not given in order.

Makes no sense that they prioritize dine in patrons over To go orders. Food was cold and over priced for what you get. Surprised for the long line considering the drop in quality compare to our previous visit. Do not recommend. There are a lot better options here in Irvine.
This place didn’t work.. in fact there wasn’t anything that stood out about this restaurant other than leaving here with little positive memories. I think Taiwanese food may be an acquired taste, and if you like Asian food this may be an exception. Although the food here fought with our taste buds, it was packed and there were lines out the door with to-go order pick up and people waiting to order. After we order, we were given a number and it’s open seating (if you can find an open table). The restaurant was not the cleanest with food and napkins all over the floor (maybe because as soon as someone leaves the table, another group sits down).. or it could be the restaurant have messy patrons..The first of our item took over 15 minutes (fried donut stick) and it was not even freshly fried. The texture was cold and chewy. The porridge did not come until about 10 minutes later, and it was so-so.. The sticky rice (famous staple of Taiwan) with dried pork was too salty to eat. The potstickers took over an hour and oily (you can see the oil on the dish when you lift up the potstickers), and the dumplings (took over an hour) arrived with the skins cracked stuck to each other and dry from the juices leaking out. Even with the warm soy milk, it took the staff over 15 minutes to bring it, even though they just had to scoop it out of a warmer. Almost all the items we tried were too salty (even the egg). Their only saving grace is their daikon cake that had a perfect balance of flavor and good mix of daikon. I had Taiwan food before and don’t remember it being like this.. Maybe this just wasn’t my day,

This place used to be my favorite breakfast joint in Irvine, sadly the service and food have gone downhill over the years.
