Orange Bistro@Alhambra ★★

New Taiwanese Restaurant in Downtown Alhambra. Pricier than usual but big portions. Better for large group. The Cup Chicken Combination was rich and flavorful with Squid and Intestine. Best to order a bowl of rice for $1.50 to pair it. Taiwanese Assorted Pan-Fried Rice Noodles was nice, and it's also better with rice. Oyster Omelet was nice. Thin Noodle with Black Sesame Oil was a big bowl of plain noodles. Nice and friendly staff. Had some language barrier because I didn't understand Mandarin. Complimentary pot of tea. No wait for Sunday lunch.
