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!“

“Their dishes never disappoint. Staff responds promptly. Prices match experience. Yumpling combines trendy style with attentive service. The savory dishes we tasted were fantastic, artfully displayed and well-matched. Employees combined outstanding assistance with genuine kindness and giving nature. My return is a certainty.“

“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.“

“If you’re craving a hit of home — that deep, unshakable comfort that only Taiwanese food can deliver — this is the spot. The food slaps, the playlist’s got Jay Chou vibing in the background, and the staff? Cool as hell. You sit down, take one bite, and suddenly you’re not in New York anymore — you’re back at that night market where everything smelled like soy, garlic, and pure nostalgia. The vibes are immaculate, the flavors hit like a memory you didn’t know you missed, this is it.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Great comfort food! Yum!“

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

“Fan fried rice bar was indeed great. Loved the pastrami fried rice, the cucumber salad and popcorn chicken.

Quality cocktails like Burning rose with mezcal and Breakfast old fashioned were perfect with the food and experience.

Have had the fried rice with wagyu beef as take away on another occasion. High quality, large portions.

Polite and helpful staff.

Recommended! I will return.“

“Ok so I love Din Tai Fung, I’ve been to it in Taiwan. The location here is really beautiful, I like the service and the atmosphere. However, if I were to compare it to Taiwans Din Tai Fung it does fall short of the taste of the noodles and wonton soup 😭 The chocolate xiao long Bao’s were really really good! Better than I expected. The normal xiao long Bao’s are good too but a bit dry on the top. The wonton soup had no taste though. The bok choy was very yummy and the cucumber salad tasted the same as how I remembered it in Taiwan too. But like they do charge more here so I did expect it to be the same or better!“

“I really liked this new dumpling place in BK. We got the kimchi and special pork dumplings as well as the beef noodles. All dishes were really good!

I loved the no-frills atmosphere and the quick service. Looking forward to go again.“

“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 👏👏“

“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.“

“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“

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

“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.“

“We stopped by for lunch around 1pm on a Saturday. We ordered the special Fantuan (rice roll), jasmine milk tea with no sugar, and some Taiwan sausage.

There was no wait, we got our food in about 5 minutes and were able to sit at the restaurant to enjoy boba with our Fan Tuan. The purple rice was cooked perfectly and the food was delicious, healthy, and filling. Highly recommend for lunch or quick snack!“

“rice bowls are a symphony“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Food was delicious, fast, packed & cheap!! 2 meals for $18, $1 extra for an egg each!! Cash only!! Fried pork chop & chicken leg were both sooooo yummy & still tastes the same after over 20+ years later!! Service was quick, friendly & excellent!! Lady even told me that if I can't find parking that she would be happy to bring it to the car!!! Definitely recommended!!! Thanks!!“

“Small store front that serves delicious bubble tea 🧋 and rice balls. They use all natural real ingredients for their teas (no powders). They also have non dairy milk options for teas including lactaid and soy milk. It was cold so we ordered the hot jasmine green milk tea with soy and boba. Very delicious. Also the rice balls 🍙 are made to order so you it was a awesome snack for the cold weather!!“

“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“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“4/5 Special Rice Roll: the purple glutinous rice had such QQ chew, so satisfying! Personally for me the filling was a bit mayo heavy, and would have loved more pork floss. Very generous with the veggies tho!

This would make for a great small and compact lunch option, and love that they are made to order.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Excellent food for the price. Lots of variety and items to try. They have little ice sculptures as well when you order the drinks. Steak is good, onions are good and the soups are good well. I think the pastas need a little bit of work though.“
