It was a relief to visit this establishment and not feel pressured to tip at the front counter. The service was great, and I truly appreciate being able to decide on gratuity without any awkwardness. A welcoming and comfortable experience overall!
Stopped by on Saturday, 02/15/25 during lunch time. Dined in and ordered the following: - 1 sausage noodle = $13 - 1 Chinese donut = $3.25 - 1 daikon cake = $5.75 - 1 pork chop rice = $12.50 - 1 beef noodle = $13.50 SUB TOTAL = $48 TAX = $3.72 TOTAL = $51.72 We waited about 20-25 minutes for our order to arrive. Overall the food was great. I would recommend this place improve the overall wait time.
Whenever I'm in town I stop by here for Chinese/Taiwanese breakfast. If you're looking for your Soymilk or Onion Pancake or Turnip Cake, this is the place. It's more fast casual-style and you pay first. They also have some noodle soups as well. Min for Credit cards is $20+.
Good, cute booth seats and kind staff. Food was good. Pickled veggies were very soggy. Just melts with little to no crunch, so I'm uncertain about the safety and cleanlinest of the food and how long it's been being pickled, especially since this is the first time I've had pickled/preserved veggies that were this soggy. But still good. All else is delicious. Green onion pancake - yum, taste like the ones you'd get frozen from a supermarket Sausages mined pork and rice - minced pork and sausage is well salted, egg is sweet, very sour lettuce, unsure about how I feel about it
Easygoing spot and has bakery/small Taiwanese breakfast eats. They have outdoor seating and indoor seating options. The service was a friendly Taiwanese auntie and she gave us a great sense of comfort ordering - even suggesting how much to order for our party of 3 We got the following dishes - warm soy milk like how it is served in Taiwan - Purple rice balls - egg bing - daikon cakes All good stuff! Easygoing service they only allow credit card over $20 minimum fyi! Service was prompt casual ambiance
Yi Mei is a great spot for a quick bite for brunch or lunch. We were searching for a Taiwanese breakfast spot during my lunch break and found a small but warm restaurant. We ordered some staples like the Salty Rice Roll and the daikon cake. It was my first time having Taiwanese breakfast items, but my husband grew up eating these dishes. I loved their pickled veggies added to the rice roll which helped balance out the Salty pork floss. The daikon cake was different from what I expecting (the ones from dimsum) but I still enjoyed the flavor with the eggs. Service was good and there was plenty of parking spaces.
Was craving Taiwanese breakfast so I stopped by here in the morning . The prices increased so much wow, $7 for one thing. I ordered the egg omelet, beef sandwich, and salty rice roll. All very delicious just how I remembered it. I believe they have specific bfast deals on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. Their lunch entrees look good and are priced reasonably too, I'll come back next time for it ! They also sell soy milk and peanut/milk tea drinks, as well as hand-made frozen dumplings in bulk to cook at home. As a heads up they require $20 minimum to use your credit card!
This is my weekly breakfast at this point -- authentic Taiwanese food is hard to come around, and this location in Chino is great. The doughnuts come at around $3 each (pictured is like half of one), and my preferred way to eat it is with soymilk but some people use soy sauce and others eat it in different ways! Orders are taken at the kiosk in the front, and they're brought to you when you sit down. Convenient and clean place to go!
