Fooki

The restaurant specialty is Taiwanese food. I don't have much experience with Taiwanese dishes but my review is based on my personal preference. Everything we ordered was good, although the braised beef was a bit salty and chewy for my preference. Service also was a miss at times. The restaurant vibe is chill and love the retro decor.

I went to Fooki for lunch with a friend and loved everything we ordered! We had the Lu Rou Fan, Shrimp Pork Dumplings, and Mala Chicken, all were delicious and perfectly balanced between sweet, savory, and spicy. The food came out surprisingly fast and was fresh, hot, and full of flavor. The restaurant has a cute, cozy ambiance with a nice modern touch. The staff were attentive, kind, and checked in just the right amount. Prices were reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to Fooki, especially for the dumplings and Mala Chicken!

I’m positively speechless about my experience here… It’s my first time experience with Taiwan Chinese dishes. I’m a huge Chinese Cuisine person I enjoy the food from Northern China to the South China. Yet, I might have to say Taiwanese might be my favorite of these cuisines. The Beef Noodle special soup is so beefy and comforting the beef rib and beef slices are so tender and beefy. The dumpling so so tender and juicy the chive one just hit my soul. Plus I’m so happy they have chili oil because it took them to the next level. The pork belly bao were gelatinous and tender and the flavor is out of this world heavenly to be exact. They told me this was their homelands comfort foods brought to Hawaii. Such a blessing to have this specific Taiwanese restaurant. The owners and waitstaff are so courteous. I’m just blown away by this place. I hope more people start to enjoy this humble restaurant. I left full and long for my next visit to try more of their dishes.
