Best private room karaoke joint that I've been to in the Bay Area. Chinese songs are up to date. I can't comment much on the English selection yet. Very roomy and clean. Prices are average, but from now until February they are having a grand opening special where it's happy hour rates all day long. Food is good too!

Best oyster omelette (oyster pancake/owa jian) I've had in the Bay Area - the edges are crispy. Best Taiwanese hamburger (gua bao) I've had in the states. They have just about every single Taiwanese street food, and a lot of their dishes can be served in smaller portions. I'll probably find myself driving out of my way just to have dinner here often.

Wasn't too big of a fans of the wings. The flavors were great, but for something deep fried, why weren't any of the wings crispy? I did, however, LOVE the waffle! It was very crispy and light. More fried chicken and waffle joints need waffles like theirs.

Not bad. Feels like comfort food. Not oustanding, but this is the kind of place where I'd go to as a default restaurant.

This is way better than all the other Chinese bakeries in the Valley. Everything is made fresh daily, and they use 100% butter, and 100% real ingredients, like actual taro paste for their taro cream puff.

My favorites so far: sesame cream puff, taro cream puff, green tea custard bun.

I'll be back the next time I'm in town.

I've been here a couple of times and I'm still not a fan of their macarons - they just don't have that fresh taste that you get from other patisseries; however, I am a huge fan of their portobella fries.

My favorite place for cheap and authentic Taiwanese breakfast. Get their: turnip cake, gua bao, soy milk. I see that people rave about their fan tuan, but I've had better. Not everything is a hit, but the ones that are will keep you coming back.

Their brick toast is the novelty item to get here, and I really like their drinks - milk tea, slush, flavored tea - all good. I usually don't get pearls in my drinks, but theirs are good - chewy, warm, and sweetened. I also like the layout of the place - very spacious and comfortable, great for studying or hanging out with friends. Great service.

Fluffy Snow

Finally, a place dedicated to shaved snow. Go for their peanut (my favorite) or milk flavors - they're light and fluffy. The green tea is too icy (I tried it twice because I really wanted to like it) and the mango is too thick and can get too sweet.
