Taiwanese Restaurants near Elmhurst, NY

“My mom and I have come to this place and ordered lots of food like stinky tofu, beef stew, oyster pancake and others. The food was awesome, and the service was wonderful. The atmosphere was like there were pictures of famous Taiwan landmarks, and people eating in there and others.“

“服務人員親切，用了很足，味道也很夠。推薦啤酒鴨，雞捲，和當歸湯“

“菜色多樣美味好吃 台閩南風味“

“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.“

“Super yummy lou rou fan that may be my favorite in the city.

Winter melon boba was also pretty solid and tapioca was really soft. Winson could absolutely never. Space is gorgeous and homely with open-concept lunch tables and large bar area.“

“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.“

“The staff were polite, patient and welcoming. The woman working was very patient and helpful to help me pick my order. The food was great; there’s nothing I could nit-pick about it. Food was fresh, hot, tasty. I ordered this fried chicken cutlet with rice combination platter. But to be honest, I’m convinced whatever I ordered was gonna taste great and fresh. The vibe was relaxed and cozy. Easy 5/5, you got great people making great food.“

“Authentic Taiwanese cuisine! Love their shaven ice.“

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

“The food was okay. The pan fried oyster cake was different and would have been better with the traditional oyster pancake sauce. The sauce that came with it was too much like duck sauce or the spring roll sauce and too sweet.

I also order the taro ball herbal jelly which was also different. There was some but not too much grass jelly taste. Maybe herbal jelly tastes different.

The price is very reasonable.“

“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!“

“Name of the restaurant does not indicate it's a Taiwanese restaurant but the quality of the food certainly does. Their beef noodle soup has thick cut meat and solid broth. Their oyster pancake is ok, the fried chicken reminds me of the night market big star chicken, a must try. If you dine in, they provide peanuts and a small amount of cold veggies to munch on while they prepare the food. The cafe is very much like a Taiwanese style mom and pop cafe. Pricing is one of the best also!“

“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 👏👏“

“Very traditional and decent taiwanese dessert. Like the taro flavor so much😋“

“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😍“

“Tasty & cheap Taiwanese fare. A fun place to eat! the best fried pork chop & popcorn chicken. Also tasty. stinky tofu ❤“

“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.“

“Four Four South Village is a Taiwanese restaurant that hopes to become the No.1 beef noodle in the hearts of overseas Chinese people around the world. Using locally sourced high level beef and wheat flour, combined with imported raw materials from China and Taiwan, as well as techniques from gold and silver medalists of the International Section of Taipei International Beef Noodle Festival, they create delicious Taipei Beef Noodles.

Not only are the beef noodles delicious, but each toppings/garnish you add increases the depth of the flavor. I personally enjoy their braised beef and tripe! Their braised beef is soft, easily splitting apart in your mouth. The honey-comb tripe is chewy with just enough elasticity for flavor and bounce.

I was not too fond of their Sesame Oil Chicken Soup as the sesame oil was a bit strong. However, their rice dishes were tasty! I highly recommend the Taiwanese Fried Pork Chop Over Rice and the Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken Over Rice. The breading for the pork chop and chicken were just perfect, not too thick or too much breading. The meat were tender and the had just enough crisp that was neither too hard or too soggy!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Located inside Kings Plaza on the second floor, this is a good spot for some relatively inexpensive and okay chinese food/takeout. They have a self-service buffet in a overload-your-plate-one-time style. We ordered the kungpao chicken with rice, and stir fried noodles with a can of coke to share. They did not have diet coke, only regular. Portions were big for our appetites, we ended up bringing ⅔rds of the noodles back home with us.“

“Having just returned from the vibrant streets of Taiwan, my taste buds were still singing with the authentic flavors I experienced. I was honestly a little skeptical about finding anything that could truly compare back home, but this place absolutely blew me away!
From the first bite, it was clear that this isn't your average street food. There's a noticeable elevation in the quality and presentation, but thankfully, the authentic taste remains completely intact. It's like a delicious flashback to the night markets of Taipei – the same incredible aromas, the same satisfying textures, and those unmistakable, bold flavors that define Taiwanese cuisine.
If you're craving a true taste of Taiwan without the long flight, look no further. This spot has managed to capture the magic and deliver an experience that genuinely competes with the real deal. Highly, highly recommended!“

“rice bowls are a symphony“

“Truly authentic Taiwanese cuisine. This mom-and-pop restaurant is small but offers lots of variety. The owners (the son and his parents) might seem cold or reserved at first but are nice and genuine.

Highly recommend the following:
• Chives, pork and shrimp dumpling
• Taiwanese starch-wrapped meatball
• Stinky tofu
• Mushroom pork thick soup

Also, their Taiwanese pickle is a perfect complement to many dishes.“

“I am so glad that a dear friend of mine recommended and brought me to this very unpretentious restaurant on Main Street, Flushing. Known for its authentic Taiwanese cuisine, this place doesn’t disappoint. Service is great with experienced servers that are attentive and friendly. To start, pickled napa cabbage and soft boiled peanuts are placed on the table. Followed by a complementary plate of sautéed cabbage in light oil. Succulent and delish. We ordered a few dishes to share and all of them were memorable! I particularly liked their shredded pork with Chinese celery. The Mapo tofu is simply full of flavor with the right amount of chili. The chicken in the clay pot is divine and full of flavors too. We also ordered the fresh clams with basil sautéed with bird’s eye chili. So good, we asked for more rice. All in all, a nice local restaurant with no frills but thrills your palette. Note: Cash only. 🤷🏽‍♂️“

“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.“

“I traveled from Chile on vacation and I wanted to eat takoyaki since I can't find it here, I really liked it, the sauce is very good, it combines well with the bonito and the octopus, the only thing is 2 things: the food court in the mall is somewhat difficult to get to xDDD and I would make the takoyaki a little smaller, the rest was very good“

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

“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!“

“Yummy yum food one of my facorite“

“rice bowls are a symphony“

“🧋BEST BOBA IN TOWN 🧋
If you are in flushing you definitely need to stop and try Xing Fu Tangs brown sugar boba drink ! Their drinks are so unique, their bobas are out of this world made freshly in store making the boba pearls are warm, chewy, & so delicious to eat. I’m obsessed and will continue to put people on“

“My sister and I have been to this place and ordered oyster pancake, beef noodle soup, stinky tofu, and others. The food and service were fantastic and yummy. The atmosphere was that there were lots of people because it is part of a mall food court on the bottom level.“

“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!!“

“鹽酥雞 臭豆腐 肉羹湯 滷肉飯 真的很道地喔 像是在台北士林夜市一樣 沒想到在紐約也可以吃到“

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

“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!!“

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“
