Golden Leaf Restaurant 金葉台菜@San Gabriel ★★★

Nice Super Casual Taiwanese Restaurant. All dishes were good. Diced Pork Belly Rice & Oyster Pancake are must-try. Vermicelli Soup has a nice kick of minced garlic with the cilantro on top. Dishes are rich & juicy. It's a good idea to order a side or rice to go with the dishes. Portions are not big. Good for trying varieties. $8 for cucumber feels overpriced, but cucumber is $9 at Din Tai Fung. Food quality is better than Half & Half. Walk in & quick service. Small space. Free parking in strip mall lot.

Diced Pork Belly Rice $8.50

Oyster & Pork Intestine Vermicelli Soup $13.25

Oyster Pancake $13.50

Fried Pork Chop $13.50

White Rice $2.25
