  • Decent place for traditional Taiwanese street snacks that are difficult to find, such as oyster noodles and oyster omelette. The popcorn chicken was also good. Please note that this is a take-out only location, so plan to eat the food elsewhere. Large free parking lot.

  • I’ve been seeing this establishment in malls and other shopping centers. I see that the food looks good based on what I saw on the menu and so, I decided to try here. I wanted to get the Grandma Braised Chicken Rice since it’s much affordable costing only around $11. It’s a lot of ground meat and hearty ingredients filled in a bowl. It’s a very small place, which isn’t really good to dine-in in my opinion. I was quite shocked with how quick the service is. I was expecting it to be a little longer though since prepping a meal like this seems to take long.

  • We were passing and saw they had samples! My two girls wanted to try it and so did we, it was their popcorn chicken. It was so good, we ordered food and enjoyed it! BIG bag of chicken for just 11.50. The guy who took our order was so nice with us and the kids, will definitely be back!

  • Grabbed takeout for lunch from here after having it recommended by the front desk person at my hotel. Got the popcorn chicken box with extra veggies and braised chicken. Arrived at designated pickup time, but order took another 5 mins, which was no big deal, as the gentleman at the window (maybe the owner?) was quite nice and warm in his communication. After a few mins, my name was called and my order handed to me nicely bagged up. Got back to the hotel and every single thing was correct and the food was piping hot and absolutely delicious. I could not finish it all in one meal, either. The fried chicken was really good, the steamed veggies were also great, and the tofu was excellent. The marinated eggs were not as good as the rest of the food (a little overcooked for my taste), but still good enough to make the overall experience a legit 5 stars. I'll be back soon.

  • I haven't had the food from Shihlin Taiwan street snacks for years because its food weren't really good and it is pricy. As I didn't know what's for lunch and I just happened to be at Milpitas Ranch 99 square, I thought of having a take-out from this restaurant for the reason quick and easy (not for tasty). I had oyster noodles. It amazed me this time. The taste definitely improved. It is more Taiwanese like now, but a bit salty...but still fine to enjoy Its staff was friendly. No others customers, so I got my order quick. What's even nicer... its rewards is able to convert to $$ to deduct on the order! It is great!

  • Fun stop for fried foods. We wanted a different lunch experience so Taiwanese street food. We can order via tablet and pay and our food gets to us within 10-15 min. It was about 11:45 am on a Monday. We ordered oysters with egg noodle, kind of gravy-ish broth. Popcorn chicken, crunchy and not dry, mild (but can choose spicy) and a sweet potato fries. All tasty and great texture. Next time we can probably ask if there is a dipping sauce. There are other items we will try but the serving was pretty generous.

  • This is a takeout only place, but there are 2 tables on the side that you could sit down to eat there. You could order using your smartphone and their QR code, and they put up an ordering station out front. We ordered their Treasure Rice Box (招牌便當 $15) which is crispy fried chicken. It tasted pretty good and it’s not dry. Portion size is generous. The Fried Tofu (炸豆腐 $8) is also good. Both customizable for spiciness.
