Liu's Cafe

“Beyond the food, the atmosphere was inviting, friendly and trendy.”

It was a stormy Thursday morning. My partner and I were leaving LA, but we had to make one more good food stop and I am so glad we chose Liu’s Cafe. This Michelin bib gourmand restaurant offers Taiwanese classics at a great value. We ordered the following: spicy wontons, beef noodle soup, hot hong kong milk tea, and hong kong style french toast. Every dish was amazing but a real stand out was the french toast. So crispy and rich it was absolutely delicious. This was potentially my favorite restaurant of the whole trip as it balanced everything perfectly. From flavors, to service, to the vibes

BEST Taiwanese meal I’ve ever had. Lovely brothy rice dish with mild but flavorful taste, unlike the usual American overwhelming sensation. Amazing texture for the noodles as well as the tasty soup. Love the spicy dumplings. None of the menu I had were bad, all of them were in fact delicious which makes my next visit here very difficult to choose. Place gets packed rather quickly, and seating is limited. Staff are friendly and more than willing to help. Gets noisy as well.

Busy on the weekends and mornings so recommend coming here on a weekday. We came here during Wednesday for dinner and did not have to wait. They were out of the chicken rice but had everything else. You order at the front and then get a seat. They don’t do reservations so best to come with a small group of 2-3. Highlights on the menu for us we’re the French Toast and Pork Belly Rice. The French Toast was sweet with a crispy outside and fluffy inside. Overall, great place with good prices and would come back!

Their pastries were discontinued 3 months ago sadly! The food seems better than I recall (except for the chicken rice that I liked less this time). The HK French toast which is deep fried but not oily and has cream inside is GOAT. We really enjoyed the beef noodle soup and pork belly rice as well, the pickles go well with the rice!
