Delicious authentic Taiwanese food at a very reasonable price. This is my new go to spot for Taiwanese food whenever I pass by SGV. Recommend the braised/BBQ pork.

Great food variety and fast service. My favorite dish is their special red grain pork! Very tasty version of the classic BBQ pork that is breaded and fried. Ate all the food before taking a picture, but definitely you won't regret eating here for the great value and price! Even though the restaurant is in downtown Arcadia, there's always parking available. The seating is very homey and welcoming with two restrooms.

Monja Taiker is a Taiwanese restaurant in the Square Plaza in Rosemead. It faces the main parking area and isn't in the food court by GW Supermarket. Combos here are pretty good, and you get a rice or noodle dish, a side, and a green or black tea. Monja Red Grain Pork Rice: The red grain pork is phenomenal! It's like an amped up char siu. This is really juicy, succulent sliced pork. The barbecue glaze is bright red, and the pork has also been fried, so it has crispy edges. This is simple comfort food, which also includes braised, minced pork on top of sticky rice accompanied by stewed cabbage. There are a couple of types of pickled vegetables. The pickled radish has a tasty dry rub that's not too salty. Parking: The lot is large with many spaces. Dining area: There are over a dozen tables, including many comfortable booths.

Our experience at Monja Taiker was mixed. The customer service stood out as exceptional, but unfortunately, the famous "Red Grain Pork" was overcooked, resulting in tougher meat. The pig ears lacked flavor, and the Taiwanese sausage with sticky rice had an excess of sauce. Despite the cooking misses, the excellent customer service left a positive impression.

While the customer service at Monja Taiker was great . our journey fell short of expectations. The Taiwanese sausage with sticky rice had an overwhelming amount of sauce . The famous "Red Grain Pork" was overcooked, making the meat somewhat tough, and the pig ears lacked the desired flavor. Despite these disappointments, the attentive customer service added a bright spot to our dining experience.

Pretty darn good Taiwanese food. Large sized portions with even more food on the side if you come for lunch on a weekday. We got the minced meat on rice, a dish of A veggies (a lot of veggies) and popcorn chicken meal. Really good. Do get their bubble tea, I didn't even have to request less sugar and their original is already less. Parking is difficult though, it's really just waiting around til someone leaves, perhaps next time I'll park on the street. Great service. Large windows with view of strip mall. Large tables that can seat over 6 people. Will definitely come back again!
