Golden Phoenix is a beloved institution in Rowland Heights, serving deeply traditional Taiwanese home cooking since 2005. Their braised pork rice (lu rou fan) is widely considered the best in the San Gabriel Valley — slow-cooked in a century-old clay pot and served with perfect pickled cabbage.
The menu spans classic stinky tofu, oyster vermicelli (ô-á-mī-suànn), sesame noodles, and a rotating selection of seasonal vegetable dishes sourced from Taiwanese-owned farms in the Inland Empire.
