“We were in as a group of six and treated our friends who have been amazing helping us move to our new condo nearby and puppy sitting the past half year.We had enough people to make a reservation so waiting was minimal despite the weekend.The atmosphere was on the loud side, music and TV wise so not a lot of conversation (but how much taking when there’s SO much food anyways, I guess?). The variety was pretty good; a nice mix of fresh veggies, decent meat and seafood and lots of fun bits like wok fried peanuts and sesame balls to round out the usual sauces and fruit. The service was good, we got our orders in and everything arrived pretty fast.We did get stuck on a table without the conveyer belts so we didn’t exactly get the immediate satisfaction of grabbing what caught our eye but it was fine as a one off.“

Popcorn Chicken

“I was really craving Taiwanese food and stopped by this place around noon on a Sunday! It was a pretty small space, but felt very comfy. I ordered the popcorn chicken ricebox, which came out really quickly and definitely hit the spot!The veggies weren't much to write home about and the stewed pork over rice was alright. However, the tofu was nice and soft, and was a great compliment to the popcorn chicken! The chicken was also amazing! It was juicy and crispy without being overwhelmingly oily. It didn't have big crunchies on the outside of the chicken, but there were nice small crispy bits on the chicken that added immensely to the texture.“

Popcorn Chicken

“One of many Mr. Green Bubble stores in the chain, but this spot has a lot of good seating. One orders at Snackpass kiosks (or on the app) and the prices are fairly reasonable. I've had a few drinks where the tea is a little watered down, but I appreciate that it's not too sweet (although I always order at 25% sweetness).Their boba/pearls are consistently chewy and last, surprisingly overnight once. I also like that they use a non-dairy creamer.Fast experience and their basil popcorn chicken is also a gem.“

“Good Taiwanese cuisine in the area. I was surprised to find that they have stinky tofu here, which is quite a controversial dish. If you can eat it, you’ll love the dish and the smell dearly; but if you can’t take it, it’s the worst smell and taste food that you’ll disdain forever :))We tried the stinky tofu and quite liked it. I don’t know if they did it right or not because I certainly didn’t smell anything bad, but the taste was acceptable and unique. Other dishes were also very good.If we have another chance to visit this area, we will visit again!Vegetarian options: They do serve vegetarian dishes.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair tables“

Purple Sticky Rice with Pork Floss

“This place lets you order online and pickup only. No inside dining. The purple rice burritos are well made, tasty and authentic. The black soy milk, although advertised as slightly sweet but it is sweeter than I have anticipated. Parking would be challenging. Either one park at nearby capelo's which has excellent bbq or keep the blinkers on and park in front of the building.vThe purple rice dumplings are cheap, good quality and authentic. The black soy milk (slightly sweet) is a little too sweet in my opinion.“

“This a review of the Taiwanese Eats, part of a take out only place near RWC Costco. The purple rice Fan Tuan are great and the pig’s ears are problem the best in the Bay Area the at they slice it thin and with great sauce. The bento boxes are decent, but order from here for the fan tuan and Pg’s ears! Negligible parking, you just pick up so most people just do a quick wait on the street.“
