Taiwan Best Mart

My go-to mom and pop Taiwanese shop in Sacramento. I love love love this food. The railroad bento is such a dependable lunch especially if you eat a lot. So much food. The chili oil wontons are out of this world. If you want more of a snack then their popcorn chicken blows out the competition (especially if you like spicy)

I’m from Taiwan and this is THE BEST and MOST AUTHENTIC Taiwanese food I’ve ever had in Northern California. My absolute favorite restaurant/shop to go to. Just wish they’d open more days and hours.

Considering the Taiwanese community in Sac is small I was shocked to see a shop serving TW street food and do it so well.

Pictured are Beef Noodle Soup🍜 ZhaJiangMian, Pork Belly Bun, and Oyster Egg Crepe. They also have bentos (I had their fried chicken bento 🍱 last week)! All have exceeded expectations and best part, ubereats delivery service is available 🙂

I enjoy this mom and pop Taiwanese bento place. Their sides are always pleasantly good. Recently tried the oyster egg omelette and it tasted very authentic with the seafood savory sauce on top. It is one of those more acquired taste dishes, as the texture is goopy. The take our bentos are still really good but call ahead to pick up because it always takes a long time to get if you order there.

I just really like the simplicity of this place and how authentically Taiwanese it feels. Their lunch bento boxes really hit the spot.

This shop sells authentic Taiwan style bentos to go. They also have frozen dumplings and meatballs for home prep. Recommended

The price of the food is very reasonable, and the quality is amazing. I got the pork belly bento box, and I highly recommend it! Even the presentation is good, and the food is ready quickly. Definitely worth stopping by to pick up lunch if you're in the area. It's also conveniently right by the freeway!

I passed this shop on the way to buy some mochi at Osakaya. It has few tables to dine in & a big freezer with frozen food inside. After buying the mochi, I decided to order some food to go.

- Pork chop rice bowl: crispy and flavorful pork chop. The unique Taiwanese flavor was definitely prominent with the addition of pickled mustard. The red rice was fluffy and tasty.
- Popcorn chicken rice bowl: crispy & tender chicken pieces with red rice. The pieces were quite big & the portion was generous
- Zha-jiang mian: the meat sauce was flavorful with tasty fermented bean curd (not too salty). The noodle was good (since I had it to-go, it was a bit hard when I ate it at home).

Overall, good authentic Taiwanese food with great value. I will definitely come back to try different menu & their frozen items.

I got the oyster omelet and popcorn chicken, and the smell reminded me of street food in the alleys of Taipei. The chicken was so juicy. Reasonably priced as well!!
有家的味道❤❤

This place is one of the best hidden gems in Sacramento, the food is amazing and they have prepared foods to go as well. The green onion pancakes (prepared in store and cooked at home) that they make are some of the best I've ever had!!! Also the basil popcorn chicken was absolutely delicious! Don't sleep on this place!!!

Love this place. I’m Taiwanese and ever since I moved up here from LA, I’ve only found one other place that serves Taiwanese food and it’s in Davis. I tried this place after I got a job nearby and it’s really good. Reminds me of the food my grandma would make. The popcorn chicken is also amazing; different from the kind most boba shops serve but I love it. It has a rice flour coating so its has a different texture and there’s bits of fried garlic and basil in the bag. Prices are reasonable and I’m glad this place exists. Only downside is that they’re closed a few days a week.

I came to this place for a, "Door dash" order and as soon as I jumped in my ride with the bag of food that was ordered, my car IMMEDIATELY smelled like what I imagine parts of Heaven to smell like. After I completed the order, I returned to get my own issue. In the words of, Daniel Phaithaisong, "BUSSIN!!!" My first time having Taiwanese food. And as long as this place is here, (it's been here for 11 years 😔), it won't be my last. The service was quick and the food AMAZING! Oh, and the cashier is FINE😍!

Best popcorn chicken in Sacramento!

The word BEST in Taiwan Best Mart is literally there for a reason!!!!!! Best beef noodle soup, best bento boxes, best popcorn chicken, best sausages and much more!!! Quality food with a home made touch vibes ~~

Nice convenient lunch for quick Taiwanese style bentos and bowls. I got the sausages and they were very good! They're on the sweet side but are tasty and I enjoyed the rice, pork, and egg sides. Pretty well priced for the portion.

Love getting lunch here, so many options to choose from and they all are delicious. They also have frozen sausages and other foods for sale, including dry goods, sodas, etc.

Usually only come here for the chilli oil wontons and let me tell you they are really good. They give about 12 pieces and they are a pretty decent size. Pretty flavorful and not that spicy it just adds a kick thats all. Eat it with a side of rice you have at home and you have a meal right there. I do recommend this if you want a little good appetizer for about 10 bucks. And they don't take that long to make this item either it's usually about 10 minutes and is always hot and fresh when I get it

I've probably gone here over 20 times and I now consider it a place of worship. Thanks for bringing a taste of Taiwan to the US!

We just moved to the neihbourhood and heard from friends how good this place was. Absolutely loved the food! We ordered 4 different kinds of bowls to try and each one of them was delicious. We can’t wait to try more! Its definitely our favorite place! Staff were really nice and helpful as well.

First time here. Bento box with pork belly is a solid choice and very affordable. I plan on going back to try the other entree options.

Update, I went back again, and the bento box was even better this time. Previous review was 5/5. This review is 6/5. Amazing!

Very impressed with the quality and how authentic the Taiwanese food is here!!
There’s a little details bursting with flavor. I travel back to Taiwan every year and I’m a bay area native. This is one of the best Taiwanese places I’ve had in Northern California.

3 cups mushroom Bento–Silken tofu is fried to perfection with king oyster mushroom, and other Asian mushrooms I don’t know the name of with ginger, clothes of garlic, and basil. Other sides: cabbage, cucumber, and ground pork with black bean, chives, red bell pepper.
Taiwanese sausage–Comes out hot, juicy, and flavorful with a tiny sliver of raw garlic at the very end
Stewed pork belly rice bowl– Good cuts of pork and a boiled egg stewed and soy sauce base with hints of star anise with fermented Veggie
Zong Zhi – after cutting it open, I was delighted to find pork, pork belly, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, and generous amounts of peanuts sprinkled throughout. Of course topped with the sweet pink sauce and a ton of cilantro
Ba Wan – they were already sold out!
