Taiwanese Restaurants near Long Island City, NY

“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.“

“One of the best beef soup noodles I’ve had and I’ve been to Taipei before. The broth is flavorful and the beef tore itself apart. It’s genuinely amazing how well the food is here even if it’s a bit pricy. But it’s given how the neighborhood is.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Great food, and great service. Cocktails is original and delicious“

“Came here with my family on a Sunday night, we were seated quickly with friendly and attentive service throughout! Everything we ate was handmade in house - including the pineapple cakes pictured here. I would really recommend getting the sauteed stinky tofu and the sesame oil pork kidney :) I will definitely come back to try out more from their menu!!“

“A casual and welcoming Taiwanese spot. I came specifically craving lu rou fan, and the portion size was just right for me—generous enough to be satisfying without being too much. The dish had plenty of flavor and the pork was rich and comforting, but unfortunately, I found the seasoning quite salty. I enjoyed the overall experience, but with a little less salt, the lu rou fan would have been much more balanced and enjoyable.“

“This is a very local restaurant.
It doesn't have fancy decor, nor does it serve mind-blowing dishes with flavors you can't find anywhere else.
However, their food is very wholesome and down-to-earth, without the heavy oils or excessive salt used to aggressively hook a customer's palate.
The prices are also very affordable—I imagine people working nearby frequent this place often.
I'm a delivery truck driver, and whenever I pass through this area, I make sure to stop by.
The elderly owner is Taiwanese and extremely kind, and they also employ some Spanish staff. The overall work atmosphere is wonderful, and I'm certain the owner treats them very well. Dining here gives you a sense of peace that you just can't find anywhere else.
You shouldn't go out of your way just to eat here, but if you happen to be passing by, you definitely have to drop in and check it out.“

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

“Waited an eternity to get in - almost 2 hrs. We got our names down for an hour later, came back at that time, and then had to wait down in the lower level all over again before finally getting a table. The food itself was just okay, nothing too bad or too good based on what we ordered (steamed dumplings, spicy noodles, and chicken fried rice). Overall, the wait is definitely not worth the food.“

“Great comfort food! Yum!“

“Chicken leg rice is a humble dish that delivers a deeply comforting and hearty experience notably Taiwanese. The chicken leg is marinated and fried until the skins nice crispy while the meat stays tender with every bite. If you are craving something satisfying and flavorful, this chicken leg dish just what you want. This place serves one of the best chicken leg rice in the city. Cheers!“

“We were so lucky there wasn’t a line and got a complimentary fried rice ball with sesame for their 1 years anniversary. Like that you just order at the bar and sit anywhere you want. We absolutely enjoyed the chicken / cabbage and seafood dumplings. The tofu and century egg were so soft and perfectly seasoned. My last favorite was the scallion noodles. 10/10 would come back here again!“

“There are three really good Taiwan restaurants in Elmhurst, each with their own unique features…but Happy Stoney’s uniqueness is its authenticity.

I don’t just mean what’s on the menu, but how it tastes! If you’ve spent time in Taiwan and loved the food scene, you know EXACTLY what I mean!

Another point worth mention is that this business ISN’T GOING AWAY!

If you love Taiwan food, and you hate social media blackmail, show your support and make your stomach happy!“

“Pretty accurate food! Saying this as someone who has lived in Taiwan for 6 months. The beef noodles were very yummy, and a must order. The beef was extremely tender, and fell off the chopsticks when my friend tried to pick it up.

The chicken cutlet fried rice can be passed.

The decorations were cute, did not feel like Taiwan, but I like the Taiwanese references. A little shocked at how non Taiwanese the staff looks, but they were all very nice.

Overall, food was solid, but the prices definitely NYC prices.“

“The restaurant was a bit confusing at first since each of its three floors caters to a different experience. We ended up on the first floor because we wanted food, beer, and cocktails, and the staff said that was the best option.
The service was friendly, and our food arrived surprisingly quickly. As for the food itself, it was good across the board, but nothing really stood out or left a lasting impression. The oyster omelette was begging for a sauce and the arancini that the server recommended wasn’t very good. Something in it tasted weird, we inquired out of curiosity but were given a list of ingredients that didn’t solve the puzzle. However, the sausage brothers and fried platter were pretty tasty. The drinks, on the other hand, were much more memorable. They were creative, well-made, and most of them tasted great.
I'd say this isn't a place I'd go out of my way to visit for the food alone. But if you're looking for unique drinks with a few snacks to share, it's definitely worth checking out.“

“Very tasty and reasonably priced rice rolls. Will absolutely come here again. The preserved vegetable and pork roll was amazing!

Word of warning for the business though, the water in your bathroom sink gets incredibly hot and it might be a good idea to post a sign warning people. I washed my hands and ended up with 1st degree burns.“

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

“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 👏👏“

“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“

“My rating is actually a 4.5 but I'll round up. We've been ordering from Gulp since they first opened and I've also eaten there in person. To their credit, I've seen them iterate on their food items a good amount over time. So some items might taste salty at first or the portion might not be as well balanced but I can tell that they are open to feedback and have actively made changes to improve things over time.

That said, there are certain things that they've also done well from the start. The popcorn chicken is a favorite of ours and has been solid since the beginning. The lu rou bentos are also tasty (and are now less salty and more balanced than before). I'm also a fan of the braised pork noodles (they improved takeout packaging/containers too). The cucumber appetizer is kid approved!

The one area I'd say they could use work would be some of their breakfast items (this was something I tried when it was newer so it's very likely that they've improved since then. Definitely recommend coming by to try them out and even if something isn't perfect the first time, there's a good chance it'll be improved upon the next time!“

“Four Four South Village is a Taiwanese restaurant in Flushing focused on comforting noodle dishes and classic Taiwanese flavors. The space has a casual, approachable feel that makes it an easy spot for a satisfying meal, especially when craving a warm bowl of beef noodle soup. The menu covers familiar Taiwanese favorites, with the beef noodles being the main draw alongside a variety of appetizers and rice dishes.

The beef noodle soup stood out with a rich, savory broth and tender braised beef that paired well with the chewy noodles. The portion felt filling, and the balance of flavors made it a comforting dish rather than something overly heavy. I also tried some of the smaller dishes, including the popcorn chicken, which had a crisp exterior with juicy pieces inside, along with other Taiwanese-style appetizers that added variety to the meal.

Service was generally efficient, and the restaurant works well for both quick lunches and casual dinners. While Flushing has plenty of Taiwanese and Chinese food options, Four Four South Village offers a reliable choice for Taiwanese comfort food, especially if you are specifically looking for beef noodle soup. Overall, it is a solid spot for familiar Taiwanese dishes with generous portions and a relaxed atmosphere.“

“Everything we ordered was divine. I’ve been here numerous times, and it’s consistently delicious. My favorites are the ribs, three cup chicken, clams and any of the vegetable dishes. It’s home style Taiwanese cuisine that reminds me of my grandma’s dishes. The waitresses are sweet, and the chef is a darling. He has been cooking every meal there for decades. Each time I go there, it’s like returning home.“

“Stopped by here for their classic milk tea and jasmine lemon tea. We ordered with little sugar and ice. It was slightly busy. We waited about 10 minutes to get the drinks. Drinks tasted fine.
The waiting area had a fortune telling setup with random-drawn bamboo stick matching fortune (inside a medicine cabinet drawer). Interesting.“

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

“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“

“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.“

“rice bowls are a symphony“

“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.“

“Comfy place located in a residential area. Limited seating. Wide variety of food on the menu but not as extensive as a full restaurant. Enough to meet your craving. Flavors were decent. Can pass off as if it were a similar to local Taiwanese cafe. Light on the taste bud. Owners were there and very welcoming. Would repeat.“

“Hands down my favorite spot in HK!
-Pork chop: big portion and cooked thin just how I like, comes with sides too
-braised beef & tendon soup, spicy braised beef & tendon soup, and tomato beef & tendon soup: perfect tenderness of the noodles, broth is packed with flavor, tendons are so soft, meat is tender
-popcorn chicken: delicious with the fried basil
-Wood ear mushroom: perfect chew and crunch, vinegary and refreshing
-jade cucumber: gingery and sweet, perfect to balance the fried foods and hearty soups“

“Side Notes/Mini Review- Rating is for the area (if this were in the East Village, for instance, it would be closer to a 3.) Apparently, the other location is known for Sizzling Steak, so possibly get that. Good Niu Rou Mian/Beef Noodle Soup. Tasty Pork Thick Soup/Rou Geng. Would not recommend Lu Ro Fan/Minced Pork Over Rice. Expect a wait as it gets crowded.

This is the second location of this Taiwanese spot, with the other inside the generically named New York Food Court in Flushing. The place is primarily takeout, though there are a handful of tables, and it's been pretty crowded every time I've passed by. They have a rewards program, and I've been there three times so far, and I'm a bit hesitant to go back. In terms of service, they almost dropped my bag the first time, but they've been friendly the other two times.

The first time I went, I got the Minced Pork Over Rice/Lu Ro Fan for $12, which was alright. For pros, the minced pork inside was nice and fatty, helping to flavor the rice, and I liked the pickled mustard greens. However, there wasn't much meat, and the broccoli, peas, and corn were flavorless, with the broccoli still a bit too crunchy, likely a bit undercooked. They also gave only half a tea egg, and it wasn't exactly that flavorful. I wouldn't recommend this at all.

The second time, I got the much better Premium Beef Noodle Soup/Niu Rou Mian for $15.95. The dish is well packaged with the mustard greens separated from the noodles, which are further separated from the broth, which contains the various pieces of beef. The beef had a pleasant chew as it was mostly shank and tendon, and was a decent portion for the price, especially given its location in Midtown East. The broth was pretty complex, reminding me of the now closed Four Four South Village. The noodles lacked a QQ texture, but a good amount of that was probably because it was takeout. This was good, and my favorite thing I've had here.

The third time was very recently, and I had the Pork Thick Soup/Ruo Geng, as recommended by a recent Yelp review, since I was in the mood for soup during this cold winter. The dish was added to the menu more recently and is available as a soup in two sizes ($6.50 for small/$12 for large) or is available over noodles for $16.95. I have never had this dish before, and it was interesting. There was a handful of meatballs inside, apparently made from a mix of pork, pork fat, and fish paste, with a soft texture and a bit of bounce. Otherwise, there were some potatoes, onions, and a few other ingredients in a slightly gloopy broth. The broth had a nice pepperiness, and I picked up some of their black vinegar and chili oil to make the broth more complex later. I liked this as well.

This is a tasty Taiwanese place serving some less common dishes. It's not my favorite Taiwanese spot I've been to, but it gets the job done and is very different from other spots in the area. Would try the Sha Cha next time or order their signature sizzling dishes.“

“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!“

“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!“

“All of this and an extra chicken leg was 25 bucks, if that doesn’t get you to eat at this place. Nothing will. Cheap delicious, juicy chicken and pork. Makes me happier of simpler times before everything went to shit. Come over here for your moneys worth. Underrated gem, an oasis of good food for a good price in an increasingly gentrified little Italy and Chinatown. You will not regret it!!“

“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“

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

“Great food, excellent service, and amazing value for the price. Everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout our visit. One of the best Chinese restaurants in the area. Highly recommend and will definitely return!“

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

“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.“

“rice bowls are a symphony“

“茶的味道很有自己的特色，珍珠很有嚼勁，店整體的設計很舒服，會繼續光顧😋🤙🏻“

“Pearl Garden is run by a wonderful older couple who make you feel like family the moment you walk through the door. If you’re looking for high-end Michelin-star plating, this isn't that kind of place—and that’s exactly why I love it. The food is incredible, delicious, and cooked with love, just like a home-cooked meal from a family member. Plus, their portions are always beyond generous! It’s warm, comforting, and easily one of my favorite spots.“

“The drinks here are delicious and I always have a good experience!“

“C’est vraiment accueillant les serveuse sont très très gentilles et j’ai kiffer leur boisson et leur plat“

“super delicious bursting with flavors. must try each item!“

“I had a vegetarian ramen (with chili oil added since I love chili oil) for only $8 and it was such a wonderfully flavorful, delicious & filling meal!Notes:-I paid with cash (I’m not sure if there are other payment options)-Food court seating area was clean & nice!-Please make sure to tip if you’re able to & support this small business ?“

“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“
