Only tried the crispy version and it's pretty tasty! Haven't had too many crispy Hainan chickens but would say it's top 5. Rice is super flavorful and yummy. Sauces aren't my fav ever.Solid choice if you're craving and nearby :)

Came after work because a friend recommended it. It's located in an unassuming area and there is only street parking. It looks like this place is a boba shop and a chicken shop. They have a really large and extensive menu so there's a little something for everyone. I've never been here before, but I was feeling something soupy so I got the tofu tom yum soup noodles. Not gonna lie, when it came out, I thought it was going to be super bland. After mixing it up, I realized all the flavoring was at the bottom and it was actually super tasty after it being mixed. Ordering is done at the front and they bring it out to you. The food came out super quick and the guy working at the register was super cool. It's a small/medium sized restaurant so there's a good amount of 4-tops. Really glad I got to try this spot.

Taishi Hainan chicken was a great experience. Parking is however kind of hard to get but definitely worth it at the night. I like the crunchy chicken and the hainan combo option with rice. The boba drinks was surprisingly really good also.Highly recommend

Love this place! Simple and Consistent.Everything we have tried so far has been fresh, delicious and has had great presentation. This time we tried the Zapp Chicken Rice.Tangy and spicy chili lime mix with cubicle cut fried chicken with cilantro, red onion, with homemade roasted ground chili and roasted rice powder. Shredded cabbage, green leaves, tomato, lemon. Served with jasmine rice or garlic rice for an extra dollar. Delicious!!!!!!No cash transactions! The future is here.Cool anime drawings on the walls and indoor trees. Street parking and nice people.

Taishi is a fantastic spot to meet up with friends or work solo while enjoying some amazing cuisine. The interior is beautiful, with dark wood accents, flowers and greenery throughout. It's located near the breakfast bar, so parking can be a bit tight, but there's additional parking on nearby streets.I usually order the Fried Chicken and Rice meal and love pairing it with the delicious red sauce they provide. The sauce adds a sweet flavor that perfectly complements the crispy, fried chicken. The staff here are genuinely kind and always have great recommendations. Occasionally, they even offer free bone broth, which you can customize with the condiments available at the table.

I think the flavors are more of a fusion between traditional Hainan and potentially Thai or Cambodian? The mix chicken comes with a sweet and sour sauce for the fried chicken and a spicy soy sauce (?) for the boiled/steamed chicken. It was delicious though and an easy lunch to grab for takeout! The staff are polite and had my order ready to go when I went in. It was pretty quiet during lunchtime on a weekday so you should have no problems getting a table if you plan to eat in. There are a few parking spots in front of the store but you find parking on the residential streets too

We ended up here after a night of pickleball at a friends recommendation. While we enjoyed the food (the fried chicken was crispy and the garlic ginger rice had a nice subtle flavor), it was a little disappointing to find most of the fried options was the same base but with a different sauce. I had the orange chicken while my partner had the Zapp and both tasted the same until u got sauce on it. :/That being said, I do want to say I'm a little bias since I don't like regular Hainan chicken; but I did very much enjoy its fried version (well, cause frying makes everything taste better). Was still hoping the different dishes were more than just a sauce swap.Not bad but also not cheap. There is self serve chicken broth though so I guess that's a bonus for those who dine in. Will come again for the food but probably not the drinks as the Matcha Strawberry I had was pretty mid.

Delicious food! The portions are big so you definitely get more than what you pay for. Had this place for dinner, ambiance was calm and not busy. Workers are fast and friendly. Good food = Happy tummy.
