Totally worth the 70 minute drive. Delicious food and great Taiwanese hospitality. Friendly, attentive staff and wonderful atmosphere.
Minced Pork (Lu-Rou) Rice, fully loaded delicious stewed pork with egg. Meats are juicy and tender, kinda on the sweet side.
Clamshell bun (Gua Bao) comes with tender thick cut pork, a bit on the salty side, but very well cooked. Fatty but not greasy.
Thousand layer pancake with egg and basil was crispy and flaky. The basil...read full review

no yall. this place actually is FIVE STARS. Please take it from someone who is very hard to please when it comes to FLAVOR! I always tell people food in LA is so freaking bland.. no dish here disappoints. I got dan dan noodles, pork rice bowl, shrimp wontons and the pancake w/ cheese. YOU MUST TRY THE PANCAKES! And also... the pork bowl because what the FLAVOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They gave us free drinks because it was our first time and that was just so kind. Love the vibes inside...read full review

Joy, a well-known LA restaurant, offers delicious food with standouts like dan dan noodles, mapo, and pork belly, along with excellent savory dan bing and boba. While some may find the food slightly salty, it remains a popular choice. The eatery has a bustling atmosphere, with takeout being a common option. The modern design features warm wood tones, and the place fills up quick around lunchtime. Prices have risen slightly over time, but Joy remains a must-visit in Northeast LA, with fresh-made soy milk daily and crispy scallion pancake wraps. Despite the altered pickup experience due to COVID-19, the beef noodle soup and dan dan noodles keep customers coming back.
