About

Whether you're craving a comforting bowl of noodle soup or a shared spread of bold, aromatic dishes, No.5 House offers Taiwanese cooking that feels homey and full of flavor in San Mateo. Our menu leans into classic favorites, from crab soup dumplings and braised beef noodle soup to spicy stinky tofu, Three Cup Chicken and braised pork hock.

Our Three Cup Chicken is a guest favorite, with bone-in chicken caramelized in a rich, savory sauce and finished with fragrant basil. Our braised dishes are slow-cooked until tender, and our bento boxes, including stewed pork over rice, make a satisfying solo meal.

We also serve crisp fried green beans and fresh garlic cucumbers that pair nicely with the richer dishes. Neighbors across San Mateo and the Peninsula come to us for a taste of Taiwan that's generous, approachable and made to be shared.
