Taiwanese Restaurants near Jersey City, NJ

“Had thai milk tea with boba and lychee jelly. It was perfect, with real tea. Both the toppings were good. I drink a lot of boba tea and try to get them anytime I find a new place and can say this was one of the best places I’ve had. Service is quick, the place is spacious and clean.“

“Great take on Lu rou fan (minced pork and rice), excellent scallion pancakes and awesome dessert (Tian miantuan) that was like a sandwich of sweet fried dough, golden sesame ice cream and condensed milk (plus cilantro and butter dried peanuts)! Great beverages as well such as the slightly sweetened Jasmine iced tea and Sanzo (lychee & calamansi) sparkling water products!“

“This quick service take out vibe delivers up tasty treats.

We strolled in for a tumbling trio, Taiwan popcorn chicken, Lu ro fan, shoestring fries and pickled lotus root.

Upon delivery we are delighted with our order. Everyone was delighted. Atmosphere is low bc it is take out but clean and water ready.

With 2 kids 4 adults this was a nice stop on our afternoon pre-game adventure in Long Island City.“

“The chicken was truly enjoyable, and I appreciate the effort put into the preparation. Perhaps a touch more salt for myself would have been perfect. I found the dish to be satisfying overall, with a delightful texture. The culinary experience presented was certainly a positive one. Furthermore, I would really enjoy just a cuttlefish dish. It would be a welcome addition to the menu. I am looking forward to future dining experiences.“

“incredible hole in the wall for taiwanese vibes, we had the braised pork over rice and the beef noodle soup. the braised pork was my fave and beef noodle was sub-best but much more enhanced when adding pickle and hot sauce they provide, aaand it comes with a extra fresh noodle. combo comes with side dishes like karaage so good plus littlem pickled noodles it's a tiny five-seat counter, and you can watch the food freshly being made. amazing experience and food will be ack“

“Absolutely insane. Ambiance is killer, everything everywhere. Real calm sometimes..cozy! Extremely fast service. Extremely considerate service. So extremely affordable! Braised pork is perfect, lunch special comes with rice a lil greens and egg. I love the pumpkin potsticker, they got a Carribbean curry flavor! Housemate drinks are a dollar, and there's plenty of options.“

“Din Tai Fung has been a long-time favorite of mine, and I’ve visited their locations across Asia more times than I can count. So, I was really looking forward to the opening of this NYC location. It took some time, but as soon as I walked in, I could see why. This isn’t like the more casual branches I’m used to – they’ve gone all out, creating a stunning space that’s perfect for a special night out. Though it’s a large venue, it feels intimate, and the table arrangement makes conversations easy. Service was excellent; our waiter was excited to introduce us to the restaurant and stayed attentive throughout the meal.

Now, the food! We tried two varieties of their signature xiaolongbao – the traditional pork and the pork and crab. Both were superb and just as good as what you’d find in Asia. The paper-thin wrappers are some of the best I’ve had outside of the Pacific, with great flavor and delicious soup inside. The pork chop fried rice was also outstanding – tender, juicy pork served over perfectly cooked fried rice. We also enjoyed the seaweed and tofu salad, which was a great starter. I did miss the wild vegetable tofu and sesame oil salad I’ve had in Asia, but I imagine it might be due to ingredient availability here. Prices are a bit higher than their Asian branches, but for me, the atmosphere and quality were worth it. I’ll definitely be back.

Note: Unlike other locations, this one is reservation-only.“

“This is a completely different kind of review for the Taiwan Pork Chop Shop as I have yet to visit. It is instead a significant and historical landmark to consider when visiting. This location was previously in the 1930's a beloved restaurant called China Clipper and was owned/managed in the 1930s by Wah Sun (“Watson”) Choy, a well-liked Chinese-American entrepreneur. It was the sister location to the main China Clipper restaurant located at 46–49 Journal Square (Jersey City) on the second floor.“

“Great comfort food! Yum!“

“The food. It’s F$&cking awesome!!!!!!!“

“Amazing Drinks To Get And So Many Delicious Food Options. You Can Also Play Arcade Games To Win Prizes.“

“We had our wedding reception in the private space in the back, and everything was incredible! Paul was great to work with, and the food came out perfect, getting complements not just from the American side of the family, but the Taiwanese side as well!“

“In Chelsea Market. Great service and very friendly team. The vegan soup was excellent, and the noodles… super fresh. Thank you Victor and your hard working team. Highly recommended 👏👏“

“The first time we tried Formosa in Prospect Heights, we ordered pork dumplings, veggie dumplings, chicken, and popcorn chicken. The veggie dumplings were the standout — really tasty — but the order still took about 40 minutes for takeout.

We gave it another try today and ordered just veggie dumplings, and it still took 35 minutes. They need to work on their speed for sure. It’s not a sit-down type of place — it feels more like a fast-food spot — so waiting that long just doesn’t make sense. The food is good, but not “wait around that long” good.“

“The menu was a bit confusing and waiter was not very helpful the first time here, however, the food was absolutely superb. I absolutely loved the sesame oil chicken soup although it might taste a bit herbal/medicinal to people who don't eat authentic Chinese food much. The braised beef noodle soup was more of a crowd pleaser if you don't like things to spicy. We have come back here and the service has been better and the food always outstanding.“

“Everything’s perfect! Taiwanese Breakfast and beef noodle soup😍“

“Brooklyn Taiwanese Breakfast ||| Recently on TikTok has been pushed this Taiwanese breakfast, I saw the scallion pancake bacon egg n cheese and glutinous rice balls and said I must try it. A random Thursday in a long line (or social media marketing well done) ordered a rice ball, a scallion pancake bec, iced sweet soy milk and a red rice donut (delicious) I think the scallion pancake is a little too hard, the bacon is also on the burnt side of crispy, the texture of the dry and not imagined fluffy, but the dipping sauce is amazing. But the dipping sauce was amazing. The sticky rice dumplings were good, and the best was the red rice donut, which was fermented and tasted a bit like red wine. If you're close by, you can try Williamsburg“

“First, the owners that run this place are so friendly and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. I ordered a noodle bowl with marinated tofu and veggies, it was fresh and flavorful. I will definitely be back soon, I got my eye on them baos..“

“I use to come here all the time since it opened around 2018, food there has not changed one bit, still amazingly good and simple. Even though there is almost no one dinning in, their customer service is still great and very kind. This place is 100% worth checking out and to get lunch or dinner from.“

“Remember this spot when choosing where to eat next. Bright, colorful dishes with noticeably fresh ingredients. Sanmiwago sparked my interest immediately. The meals were great, and the value and excellent service completed the experience. Getting in without waiting becomes challenging during peak times.“

“Got the veggie dumplings & the seasonal burger dumplings with the scallion ginger rice and it was all really really great! Friendly service and a cute/chill atmosphere. So crazy to me that the past few times i’ve walked by it’s been super empty. It’s definitely worth the stop!!“

“Fantastic food , very clean , fast service , friendly staff , the Mimi sauce is amazing 😉“

“A cozy little Taiwanese joint in Harrison, NJ. I ordered the salt & pepper chicken bento — the fried chicken was super crispy and juicy, and the portion was bigger than expected. What really stood out was their homemade chili oil — rich, fragrant, and perfectly spicy. The side dishes were thoughtful and balanced, not just fillers. Great vibes, warm service, and a menu full of familiar flavors. I’ll be back.“

“Muy delicioso 😋 me encantaría que esté en mi país Ecuador“

“The restaurant has been around for at least 30 years as I've heard. I've been there many times the food is always consistent. And the service is quick and employees are nice. And the prices are reasonable. It's a rake out place but they took over the little store front next to it and created a little dine-in space.“

“Miss home, so searched up solid taiwanese spot. The pan-fried dumping 鍋貼 ("guo-tie") was exactly how I needed it to be. The popcorn chicken was not as salty as I thought and had a thicker coating than the other ones I have tried in other restaurants. Overall, I was very happy to have visited.

Coming back for the dumplings again.“

“My partner and I just ate here today it's reeeally heckin' good. The chicken cutlets are huge and the Original spice is just the right amount of sweet, and even the standard fries have delicious seasoning. The sweet potato fries are divine. Their boba is also top tier, with my favorite consistency of boba pearls (super soft). The s'mores mochi donut was really good, too!“

“Stopped by at a new second avenue location at 1623 second avenue. They offer a wide variety of eat in or take out food that is easy to eat or make. The product has choices of fried, boiled sandwiched or soup dekendung on your mood. Delivery through grub hub app and a welcome addition to the upper east side food scene“

“I love the milk tea also juices and brown sugar milk tea ☕️“

“It’s a cute place! I appreciate that it has seating. Plus the food+ drink combo options are nice! They have a bunch of drink options, but my friend and I opted for a Brown Sugar Milk tea and a Mango Green tea. The mango green tea wasn’t what I expected! As it had a lot of mango pulp and less of the refreshing tea vibe I expected. Also my friend’s milk tea was quite diluted and mostly tasted of the milk.“

“Me and my friend went to this spot today and we loved it. The flavor was delicious, we are going back soon, it’s really yummy. I’ll give this place a 10. It’s on my favorite list. I’ll recommend.“

“Solid 4 star. It was cramped with 5 employees. Not a sit down. It's a hole in the wall shop. I ordered the pork with pickle veggies. It's a classic item. I liked it but was not a fan of mayonnaise. There was mayonnaise in the middle. Before buying, ask if they use any sauces. If I knew there was mayonnaise I would tell them to leave it out. Then the rice roll will be good.“

“Yummy Boba tea shop in the area! We got two bubble milk teas for one drink price ( they do buy one get one free for one kind of milk tea on weekdays from 5-9pm - March 2025 )
Small shop but so many different drinks you can find.
They have some quick food as well.“

“The basil popcorn chicken is amazing The honey bubble tea just off the hook gotta go again“

“This was probably the most spacious and cleanest restaurant/store on 8th ave from my experience. We tried signature icy taro bowl and the hot almond soup. Loved the icy taro bowl and all the toppings on it. The chewiness balanced out the sweetness. However, I don’t recommend the hot almond soup (or anything with almond soup base). It was not good, and tasted nasty to be frank. We couldn’t even finish it. Not sure if the soup base was just almond milk but it tasted really weird.“

“If you are into Chinese style steak this spot is great. Chinese style steak isnt focus on beef's flavor but overall flavor with the sauce included. I think the black pepper sauce complemented the dish well and was really tasty. My only doubt is the steak was extremely juicy like that of USDA prime grade steak which shouldn't have been possible given that I only spent 29 for the plate. I'm pretty sure they used some dark technology but since it is all speculation no knock against them.“
