" I can’t really understand why this restaurant has any negative reviews. My experience was purely excellent. The food tasted incredibly fresh and reminiscent of meals I had as a child back in Taiwan. Everything we tried, from the fried noodles to the Stinky Tofu, was bursting with flavor. Service was a bit stretched, as expected in busy tourist areas, but the staff remained positive and friendly. Highly recommend this hidden gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner here last night and enjoyed every bit! The dishes we chose were rich with authentic flavors, almost like being transported back to Taiwan! The Three Cup Chicken was tender and so flavorful. The only downside was the wait time—service could have been quicker with more staff on hand. Other than that, the atmosphere and vibe were cozy and definitely worth another visit in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Okay, I have to admit that my expectations were high based on what everyone said. While the food had its shine, I was left wanting more. The fried rice we ordered was pleasant, but the portions felt meager for the price tag directly under it. The atmosphere was engaging—loud and lively—but unfortunately, I felt more like a customer than a guest. It’s a no for me for now, but I might swing by just to give those clams a second chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had dinner here last night for the first time, and it exceeded my expectations! The stinky tofu was one of the best I've had in NYC, perfectly crispy and juicy. Their people are genuinely nice, and that just adds to the experience. We couldn’t help but order several dishes because the flavor profiles were interesting and unique. Given this place’s popularity, be prepared for a bit of a wait during peak times! " (*Curated Review*)

" Being of Taiwanese descent, I’ve experienced my share of Taiwanese food in NYC and this place hits the nail on the head. My favorites are the fried rice cakes and three cup chicken. The ambiance provides a nostalgic touch while the staff makes you feel right at home. I’ve noticed the service could occasionally be rushed, but the food is consistently delicious enough to make it all worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I was blown away by how delicious everything was here! Each dish had a wonderful homemade taste—just like back in Taipei. We tried the shredded pork with diced bean curd and the three cup chicken, and I cannot recommend them enough. The service was prompt, and we were seated quickly despite it being busy. I’ll definitely be returning to try out their other dishes and bring friends along! " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a cozy little place! I don't usually leave reviews, but this time I couldn't help it. The food was just incredible—so full of flavor! I loved their fried rice cakes, which had just the right amount of spice. The staff were friendly but slightly overwhelmed on that busy night. But despite the wait times, the food made it all worthwhile. Will definitely be a regular here! " (*Curated Review*)
