Tao Rice Roll Plano

Adrian Liwanag a month ago

Food: Had the Traditional and Eel rice roll (which are a favorite), which came out to a total of ~$13.00—not too shabby for a quick, filling lunch! Both had great textures, from the chewiness of the short-grain rice to the crunch of the fried bread stick, and the fillings were delectable. Service: No complaints! Ordering was straightforward and food was ready quickly. Ambiance: Casual, traditional. Parking: Ample parking. Located in a plaza.

Just got back from a solid morning run to Tao Rice Roll and I’m still thinking about how good it was. A couple months ago my wife and I spent time in Taiwan and fell hard for the real-deal Taiwanese breakfast scene—those sticky rice rolls, flaky sesame pancakes, hot salty soy milk, the works. Ever since we got home we’ve been hunting for something that comes close, so we Googled around and landed on this spot. Huge win that they open at 7 am. That early start is perfect when you want breakfast without the usual rush. We ordered the salty soy milk, sesame pancake, the Tao rice roll, and some xiao long bao, and every single thing hit the mark. The salty soy milk had that classic savory depth that takes me straight back to the little breakfast shops in Taipei. The sesame pancake was crispy and flaky on the outside with the soft insides and that perfect fried-dough stick crunch inside—exactly the texture you want. The Tao rice roll was packed and flavorful, not dry or skimpy on the fillings, and the xiao long bao were juicy with that nice burst of broth. Everything tasted fresh and made with care. One thing I really liked is how quiet it stays in the morning. Most people seem to grab t

When my bf started raving about this place that told rice rolls, I thought he was being overdramatic. I understand the hype now. This is such a simple food that leaves you so satisfyingly full. I got the Egg Bomb roll and it was delicious. Texture explosion - Rice was chewy, egg was soft, sausage had a bite to it, the pork floss and bread stick gave it a crunch. We also got the Egg pancake. We ordered it spicy but there was not even the tiniest amount of spice. It was still enjoyable but I wish we would have gotten what we ordered.

Was a little skeptical when I first went in there because it was pretty empty but everything was surprisingly tasteful. Got the traditional rice roll with braised pork and egg in there and loved it. Also got the pork bone soup which was really fresh. They were also extremely generous on the pork ribs. A plus for being very cheap price too for these good food. Overall really pleasant experience and wouldn’t mind coming back at all.

Food is really good Recommend getting the egg pancake with a soy milk combo. Service takes a long time to make the food. When it gets busy with lots people can take a long time But food is freshly made from scratch and tastes very authentic, worth the wait. You want the food to be made fresh or else it wont taste right, like the pancakes need be crunchy. Probably need wait 20min plus sometimes. Got seating on side of store but not well stocked, ie don’t expect napkins or the table or floor to be cleaned up, more of a fast food vibe.
