Taiwanese Restaurants near Jersey City, NJ

“This food here is absolutely delicious while affordable and the place is very cute with enough seating space. The combo deal we tried was really amazing, with unlimited drink refills of your choice! Can't wait to come back and try something new next time :)“

“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!“

“Delicious dumplings. They're so good. Also, I recommend the garlicky cucumbers for a light & tasty appetizer. Very clean, cozy, polite staff. 5 stars for sure.“

“We loved our meal at Wenwen! Food was delicious and our waitress could not have been nicer. After I mentioned that it was my brother's birthday hoping they could put a small candle on the dessert, she presented a beautiful dessert with a candle and comped it! I was not expecting that and really appreciated it. Highly recommend and look forward to returning soon!“

“Gulp in Long Island City is a true hole in the wall spot with a lot of charm. The space is tiny, with only 5 seats, so be prepared to wait. We waited about 30 minutes for 3 seats to open, but it was absolutely worth it. I had the beef noodle soup, and it was rich, comforting, and full of flavor. One of the coolest parts of the experience was discovering the speakeasy in the back. While we were waiting, I saw a group of six suddenly come out and was so confused about where they had even been hiding. Turns out there is a door through the small restaurant that leads to a bar in the back, which made the whole place feel even more unique and memorable. Definitely a tiny spot with a big personality.“

“We were looking for authentic, delicious, and fairly priced platters for our Chinese New Year celebration and found A-Pou. A-Pou not only helped us put together the menu, but she included extra special goodies like sesame balls / egg rolls / fortune cookies. Even though Sunday was her day off, she still prepared and delivered the platters to our apartment which was so appreciated. All of our guests RAVED about the food (especially the potstickers, basil chicken, and lo mein).

A-Pou was also amazing to work with from beginning to end - she’s just the sweetest lady. Highly encourage paying her restaurant a visit and calling her if you have catering needs!“

“Owen and the staff were all fantastic. Patrick at the bar was very friendly and knowledgeable. I will definitely return each time I'm in NYC. Everything was amazing. Pork dumplings, chocolate dumplings with the sea salt foam, and their signature shochu sesame espresso martini are an absolute must. I'll be dreaming of them until next time.“

“Taiwan Pork Chop House is an absolute gem. In a city where dinner can easily spiral, this might be one of the best value meals you can find in NYC and you will leave completely full.

The pork chop is the namesake for a reason. It is flavorful, satisfying, and hits that perfect comfort food note. But the real standout for us was the salt and pepper chicken. Crispy, well seasoned, and incredibly addictive. The kind of dish where you keep reaching back in for just one more piece.

This is the spot you go to when you want to stretch your dollar without sacrificing flavor. Generous portions, no frills, just honest food that delivers every time.

Also, treat the people here kindly. The staff is warm and hardworking, and that energy makes the experience even better. Places like this are what make New York special. I love it and cannot wait to come back. 🍗💸“

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

“Great comfort food! Yum!“

“masarap yung chicken nila, and mag eenjoy talaga sa mga claw machine“

“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.“

“Formosa was a hidden gem for us since we rarely hear people talking about it, which honestly makes it feel like a great little discovery. The space itself is cute and welcoming, and the food absolutely delivers.

We tried a few dishes and everything impressed. The dumplings were a great way to start the meal, and the beef noodle soup was rich, comforting, and packed with flavor. But the real showstopper was the scallion noodles. They were fresh, fragrant, and incredibly flavorful. One of those dishes where everyone at the table pauses for a second because it is that good.

There are so many tempting options on the menu that we already know we will be back soon to try more. I never expected to have great Taiwanese food this close by, but here we are.

If you go, definitely start with a small plate or dumplings before your main dish so you can sample a few things from the menu. This is the kind of place where sharing and trying a little of everything makes the experience even better. 🥟😋“

“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“

“Chinatown has so many great dumpling options, and this is one of them. Tucked away in a modest food hall, this Taiwanese food stall serves a variety of friend and boiled dumplings, and adds an egg drop soup for free with a dumplings purchase. It is no frills, but tasty.“

“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 👏👏“

“I got the special rolls and salted egg yolk rolls. The special was good spicy mayo but the salted egg yolk was way too grainy almost unappetizing. I’ll just remember to get them with no salted egg yolk! Will be coming back. I think flavor wise win son bakery gets the upper hand but it’s way too expensive for what you get.“

“rice bowls are a symphony“

“Summary - I have been here now about three or four times and honestly, I enjoy this place downstairs toothpaste good service. I keep trying different things in interest. Something are too sweet but the beef noodle soup is great. Overall, pretty happy all the time.

Food – so I’ve had many different things here beef noodle soup spicy not spicy pork chops sausage all the small side, dishes, and pleasantly impressed. Overall with everything. The soup remains my favorite. However, the spicy is too spicy the pork chop and the sausage we both both solid however they were a little sweeter than I normally would like and I can’t wish there was sticky rice.

Atmosphere – it’s very cute and kind of hidden. It’s downstairs almost like basement so it’s not the staff is super attentive. Service is super fast and I just keep going back cause I feel at home. It’s very homie.“

“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..“

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

“Great food. Good seasoning with big enough portions for a guy. Rare case where I eat every dish in a bento. However this place is slow. Takes a while to bring out your food. Also the staff kids were being a disturbance. I get that asian places will keep their kids around the store and I get it’s sometimes necessary. However I’ve seen staff lids in asian places sit still and be quiet while here the kids ate constantly walking around and making high pitched young kid whining not yet full language kind of noise and it’s annoying.“

“Great service and such a fun vibe! Loved the nostalgic feel and all the little details that really bring the train vibe together. The drinks were super unique, and the Taiwanese dish was so good. Definitely coming back! Also, don’t miss the bar on the second floor!“

“I’ve been coming to Tiam Tiam since it was Ding Food Market. Their bento boxes slap, you can’t go wrong. Would also suggest any onigiri, especially the spam supreme, and the Brussels with tofu. Such a hidden gem and you can tell they are passionate about the food they serve! Love this place, five stars forever.“

“The MUST-TRY Golden Mango Strawberry Pomelo!! 🥭🍓
This used to be my favorite seasonal drink, and now it’s finally available all year round! The mango is super sweet, the pomelo adds the perfect citrus kick, and the strawberry ties everything together. If you see this on the menu, you HAVE to try it!“

“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!“

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

“This place has amazing tasting food for amazing price. My colleague who knows the area well broguht me here for lunch. It is fast Chinese but the taste was pretty darn good. I had #1 pork chop with the egg and it was just $8. You cannot find such price in the city. The kind lady kept pouring me tea which was pretty nice of her. If i lived by I would probably frequent it. I do want to return to try the fried chicken legs.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“This is a great spot for a date night or a meal with family. The complimentary appetizers are amazing. The fruit salad is sweet and juicy. The toasted butter bread is crispy, crunchy and full of buttery flavor. The drinks are sweet and fun and even come with a tiny ice animal on top.

The ribeye steak was so juicy, tender and full of flavor for a $30 price point. To add on the fine dining service, the waiter brings steak is brought out in display full of steam that my party go WOW every time we go. Outback Steakhouse has nothing on this place. I tried a runny sunny side up egg with spaghetti and it was creamy, comforting and delicious. At the end, little lollipops are given with the bill, which is perfect for kids. The restaurant feels cozy and fancy at the same time, even in the bathroom.

If you love delicious, affordable food, fun drinks, and a classy atmosphere, you have to try this place!“

“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.“
