Ordered food to go, when we got there they gave our food to a Door Dash driver. Instead of making new food, they left us waiting for 20 minutes and then tried to give us the food that the Angry Door Dash Driver brought back as he was also out for having to have to come back to get the right order. Very poor customer service. The cashier said he would redo it, but it will be another 20 minutes. I'm not coming back. This is not how you run a restaurant

Eat in in takeout boxes.He said he wanted two glasses of cold water, but he didn't give it to him after the meal. The key point was that there were no other customers in the store.All meals are prepared.The braised pork rice was a bit sour and had a strong smell of pork.I don’t know who the unscrupulous person in Xiaohongshu recommended this kind of store.One of the worst hotels in Los Angeles.Is it okay to close down quickly?

Always a good place to get lunch or snack. They have lunch specials that include drinks, and portions are huge.

One of the best Chinese restaurants. You must have a meal here when you come to Los Angeles. It is delicious and affordable Taiwanese style.

Review for drinks only!It's been years since I have had monja taiker. I was nearby getting banh mi and decided to pop in to get a drink. I've only dined in once. But I have had their drinks many times. I got the black milk tea with boba. The drink was as creamy and delicious as I remember. There aren't many boba locations on this side of Garvey.

Randomly stumbled upon this place and their card system was down so had to pay cash. The workers were super nice and gave us two free teas for the inconvenience. First off, wow the food here is something else. I tried out the Monja red grain pork with rice and also with dry noodles and it's very unique. I've never seen a bbq pork being fried before but it's absolutely delicious. The dry noodles also hit, the noodles have a good texture and the overall flavors work so well. I would be back here again. Restaurant is pretty large with plenty of seats. Tons of parking outside as it's a shared lot.

Not my cup of tea! I just don’t think this location is authentic. I mean, the portions were good but unfortunately, everything we had just wasn’t very tasty. What’s even worse? …I hate to point out this but the restaurant itself def needs a deep clean.*Warning:Be aware and do your math! They happened to charge more for the tip. *Sigh* Look carefully at your receipts, then you may know! Aw well!

This was a really great experience. Found parking in front of the restaurant and it had no wait time. We ordered the bbq grain rice dish, pork chop rice, chicken rolls, and I got a black tea. The food definitely caught me by surprise. The bbq pork looked amazing and tasted great. Albeit, it's very different from regular tasting bbq pork. They definitely prepare this in a very different way. The other foods were delicious also. The staff was nice and helpful with questions I had about the menu. This was a great find, and I'm sure I'll be back plenty of times!

Was craving taiwanese and decided to order Monja Taiker from UberEATS and it totally hit the spot.Ordered 3 items, the house special red pork rice, popcorn chicken rice, and mixed stew item appetizer (which came as spicy without spice level selection online).I would recommend all 3. Portions are generous with the rice, protein and two sides. The surprise of the day was the stewed veggies and sides in the rice plates themselves. That was the real test of authenticity and quality. 白菜滷和菜脯加蔭豉太道地了! As if I was buying bento in Taipei. Will definitely be a repeat customer to try some of the other taiwanese items that you rarely see at local restaurants.Lastly, the penmanship was too beautiful and I couldn't resist sharing a picture of our order. It is a disappearing art form in the digital age!

Shaved ice is pretty good. The salt and pepper chicken is lacking

Came here on Friday for lunch, Monja Taiker is located in a plaza next to a busy super market. My partner took me here and said he used to come here often with his friend for the lunch special. Although he said prices have increased over the years, the lunch special is still a good deal since you get an entree, a small side dish, and a drink for $13-$15. I ordered combo B which came with Ground Pork and rice. When it arrived, the portion was pretty generous...somehow I ended up finishing it and it kept me full until the morning as I didn't eat dinner that night. Overall I would come back if I was in the area again. Cards accepted.
