Hole in the wall kind of place that doesn't disappoint! I was born in Taiwan and grew up all the Taiwanese Nightmarket delights. This was a great find and totally hit the spot!!! If you are in the area and you are into Taiwanese dish, you can't go wrong here.

Restaurant owners are nice, stinky tofu is really delicious.

Lots of authentic Taiwanese Street dishes, specially the stinky fried tofu. You can't miss it. Although it didn't smell too well, you definitely will change your thought after you tried the first bite. I personally like to let the tofu soaked in the sauce for a while to make it more flavor, but will forget about it sometimes because can't wait to start the crunch bites.

The stinky tofu is great for non-Taiwanese because it's not super stinky.
Other meals are good, too.
Service friendly.

As I don't visit this area frequently, I found Tofu King by accident. I quickly pulled up Google Maps to see the reivew and decided to give their famous stinky tofu a try (yes, I'm a huge fan of stinky tofu 😍)

The place doesn't offer dine in bu there are a few tables just outside the resturant. Since I just had lunch less than 30 min ago, I only ordered stinky tofu. The waitress very friendly and the order was ready around 10 min.

Unfortunately, their famous stinky tofu is average at best. First, the tofu they are using is not soft tofu, but the harden tofu bean curd (豆乾). Second, the curst isn't crispy. Third, and the worst part, is that their stinky tofu is not stinky at all (can't taste nor smell it). For $8, it's just a semi-fried bean curd!

Anyhow, maybe it was my bad luck or other items are better and I didn't get to try. I wouldn't recommed this place if you are here for their stinky tofu.

First of all, let me report this: the price for a plate of Stinky Tofu and a bowl of Sliced Pork Rice is already $18.50 from $15.33 from July, 2018.
My daughter and I went to Tofu King, Irvine but we can't dine in because of the COVID. Then three days later, we decided to have one at the Rowland Heights branch. We still can't dine in, but fortunately, there are outdoor seats.
I visited Rowland Heights one and Arcadia one several times before, both are good. The Stinky Tofu I got this time is the best. 4 deep-fried Stinky Tofu have been cut into 16 pics, they are so crunchy and crispy, the tofu has so many little holes can absorb enough sauce. The pickled cabbage is so sour gives me a striking feeling which I love.
The Rowland Heights one is located inside a plaza, which is so Chinese. Full of Chinese restaurants and every speak so loudly and even a woman uses handsfree WeChat to tell her friend on another side: I am going to eat my Stinky Tofu now!
The Sliced Pork Rice is also good, which is not made from ground pork but sliced tiny pork pieces. It's a very authentic Taiwanese way.

The Taiwanese stinky tofu with unique sauce is delicious, and the sour-flavored vegetables are also delicious. In addition, there are Taiwan-style braised pork rice and Taiwan-style meatball noodles, which are also delicious. During the epidemic, they all eat outdoors, and the store is not open. The overall sanitation environment is very ordinary, and the location is relatively remote.

First time I tried "Stinky tofu!". I was surprised because the food was so delicious; it not stink at all. At first, my cousin and me just ordered 2 plates. Then we ended up eating 4 plates of Stinky tofu.

Good service!

Parking: easy to find.

Location: hidden place, just following the smell. You will understand what I mean when you get there.

Definitely come back!!!
