Because of the good reviews, I ordered a take out for lunch. Super taste is a small eatery with 4 tables, all unoccupied when I visited. I saw a kiosk where you can put in an order so I assume it sometimes gets busy. The cashier was very friendly. I'm more of a rice person than a noodle person, and there were only 2 rice dishes on the menu. I ordered the Steamed Pork Taiwan Style which included the pork, an egg, and bok choy for $10.95. It was a huge bowl which could feed 2. It was OK, but I should have gone with a noodle dish. I hate to base a review on one dish, but that's all I have to go by - 3 1/2 stars. read more

Super Taste - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

This place was so delicious! We ordered at the counter then sat ourselves. When the food was ready, a worker brought it to us on a tray. I ordered the pork bun which was only $6 and soooo delicious and filling! My friend ordered the beef noodles and absolutely devoured it. The best Chinese food we've ever had. After we finished, they told us we can just leave it there and they will take care of it. There was also AC and it wasn't very loud so I was able to take a work call in there. They also had outlets. Unfortunately there is no bathroom. The location is also easy to miss because there is construction right next to it. read more

Casual dining spot with some seating. Order at the front and they will bring your noodles to you. We chatted with one of the owners for a long time and he is a super nice guy. Very passionate about noodles and the food. The noodles are bouncy and fresh. The portion size is much better than the other noodle places like Burp Bowl and Bites of Xian. Xian Famous noodles, which has multiple locations, is really not as great as it used to be. The noodles are not as fresh and not as good. Super Taste is a great addition to the neighborhood. I hope they don't decrease the portion sizes or decrease quality. read more

Got sesame noodles and pork and chive dumplings through Uber eats and..... idk. I know it's a good cheap eats place but.... I just feel like it was meh? - Sesame noodles: 5/10 (I feel like I need to go eat it in person because the noodles just seemed way overcooked when I got it through delivery?) - Pork and chive dumplings: 5/10 (same as above) I'll try going back in person (maybe to the Chinatown location) to check out the service, ambiance, and food quality again. read more

The spicy beef noodles are delightfully incendiary at this small takeout-focused spot. You shouldn't proceed without a nearby beverage but this is more than a heat machine; it's laden with secret ingredients. The meat and the broth are the marquee attractions but I also liked the fresh bok choy and cilantro. The modular menu enables mix-and-match options. read more

Long time fan of the Chinatown original. I read that the owners were ready to close that shop and retire when their son decided to take over and now there's a second location in the UES. Still delicious, still one of the best cheap eats around! And such great value in this neighborhood!! When my friend and I were having our food we noticed how the owner was so friendly with every single person that came thru the door. I hope they do well for a very long time in this neighborhood! read more

My go-to soupy noodle dish is always beef noodle soup and Super Taste did not disappoint. The portion size was pretty good (I ate the entire thing in one sitting) and the employee taking our order and serving us was really friendly. I'm always hesitant to eat a soupy meal on a hot day (it was ~97° that day) but I still enjoyed this dish. The prices are pretty reasonable too and there is sufficient indoor seating. read more

Super Taste - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

Ambiance (5/5): The small interior can seat 4 parties (1 table being larger to fit 8). I thought the inside was brightly lit and clean. No frills in décor. Service (N/A): I ordered at the kiosk by the front desk. The staff was friendly and no issues with the order. Food (5/5): I only ordered 1 dish which was the Burning Noodles. The bowl is a heavy portion of noodles and a pretty good amount of flavor-packed meat and sauces. I ended up eating it take-away about 45min later so it was my fault that the sauce had congealed. However, the taste profile was still spot-on! I plan to return to try their other dishes! read more

This place is amazing I'm so glad the UES has a location now! The OG Super Taste is in chinatown and is very popular with stellar dishes, and this branch is no different. I got the burning noodle with pork and it hit all the right spots. The noodles were chewy with good texture with the generous portion of pork. I also got a taste of the chicken dumplings, which was very good! A generous size dumpling, definitely don't sleep on this. I also met the owner, who was friendly, helpful, and overall nice person. Definitely will be back! read more

While at work and nursing a slight hangover, I was craving something with fat and spice, to help soothe my belly. The reviews looked promising so I ordered delivery. I wanted their veggie dumplings pan fried but unfortunately, they only offer them steamed. It was nice that someone from the restaurant gave me a call to let me know and see if it was OK with me. When the food came, I appreciated the care they put into packaging my food. Everything was neat and tidy. I ordered their burning noodles with beef and their veggie dumplings. The flavor of the noodles was OK, not as spicy as I expected, but good. My only hangup with them was that they needed more sauce because by the time I received them, they cooled down and everything was a clump. I couldn't separate the noodles and mix everything together so that all the ingredients could get incorporated. The dumplings have a great filling ratio but I was disappointed that there was no dumpling sauce. They were quite plain tasting, especially since they were just steamed and there was no pan browning. I hoping that was an oversight and that they do usually serve their dumplings with sauce. Not sure if it'd order again, considering that was a pricey lunch and I wasn't that bally with it. read more

Super Taste - Burning Noodles w/Beef & Veggie Dumplings - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

I'm sooooo disappointed in this meal! I had fried dumplings and vegetable- the fried dumplings were very very very fried (are they deep-fried?! They are also made "open" (see pic, and all the others') for whatever reason, so the juices are out and the oil is in, ugh); the vegetable ones were completely overcooked and mushy; I had them in-store. Which is very friendly! (Super Taste?! More like Oily Soggy Taste! ) The fillings were unsurprisingly bland, due to waterlogging/oil-logging. I'm not understanding these other reviews. Have they had these foods before?! Honestly I'm not that particular in dumplings since I love them ALL!!! (OR so I thought- I guess I draw the line at bloated/bland/overfried/soggy ) I've read so much about this, and was so excited this shop arrived! I'm afraid to try anything else now. read more

Super Taste - Very very very fried open dumplings - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

Super excited to come to Super Taste (haha sorry). I was very excited to eat some noodle soup as I hadn't had it for a long time. I came in and was worried that there wouldn't be seating but there was plenty of seating as people are continuously coming and going. I ordered the Hot & Spicy Beef Noodle Soup via the kiosk and it was pretty good. I appreciate the tenderness of the beef as well as the bok choy that soaked up all the flavors. I think the broth was a little bit too spicy for me but that's probably because I'm just weak and spice intolerant. Next time I come, I will try the Stewed Pork Burger as I saw that there were a lot of raves about it online. Overall, not a bad Chinese food place in UES. Also, the owner is incredibly nice and friendly - he gave us some hand sanitizer when needed some. read more

Super Taste - Hot & Spicy Beef Noodle Soup - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

With the opening of other dumpling shops around the neighborhood, I think this one stands out. The quality of the food and portions are superior in comparison to its competitors. I would definitely recommend their fried dumplings. I also tried out a stewed pork rice dish which was hot, tasty and filling. This may be my go-to Asian spot near the workplace! I think it's important to support these small businesses so make sure to get your dumpling fix here. read more

I will now avoid any noodle place that has become a chain and opened more than one location apart from Xian- this place sucked. It was even worse than the one in Chinatown. Not only are the prices higher, quality of food was even worse. I wanted a redo because the Chinatown one had a long line and a wait and I took it to go and nothing had flavor. The noodles in soup were rather soggy and flavorless. read more

Authentic Chinese dumpling and noodle spot from Chinatown joins the upper east side to fill the cultural void that is this neighborhood (sorry) with a gem of authentic Chinese flavor. RATING 8.3/10 PRO TIP: Do not! forget to dress your dumplings in chili oil and vinegar bc this brings it to the next level. The white gourd tea is also quite delicious. STEAMED DUMPLINGS Freshly steamed, nice chewy exterior, pork interior - it's everything that a Chinese dumpling should be. Is it the best dumplings in the city? No, but it is super authentic and around here that's hard to find. Yes, the price is quite higher than the Chinatown location but it is still cheaper than everything around the neighborhood and is authentic!! This is coming from a Chinese person living in the UES. HOT AND SPICY BEEF NOODLES Super flavorful and bold, pretty good as far as this type of chinese beef noodle soup goes, and I grew up eating this. Great chew on the noodles. Warm with a mild heat to spice up your day - nothing too overwhelming. Great savoriness in the broth. FINAL RANKING: GREAT (terrible / bad / ok / good / GREAT / excellent) Welcome to the neighborhood super taste, hope you stick around! read more

Delicious cheap food! Friendly service too. We came right when it opened at 11am on Monday and there were a couple of tables available, and we didn't need to wait too long for the food. It did get a lot more crowded at around 12pm though, so we're glad we came early. We ordered the Pork Burger, Soy Sauce Egg, Beef Stew, Soybean Noodles, Panfried Dumplings, and Steamed Dumplings. - Soybean Noodles: My favorite thing we ordered. Noodles were chewy and fresh. The soybean paste had a great flavor and wasn't too salty. - Steamed Dumplings: Not bad, but nothing outstanding. Wouldn't mind ordering again if I wanted dumplings, but probably wouldn't go out of my way to get these dumplings because they're just basic good dumplings I could find elsewhere too. - Panfried Dumplings: Also not bad. The filling tasted a bit saltier than the filling of the steamed dumplings, but it may have been from the dumplings being panfried and the skin having less moisture to balance with the filling. - Pork Burger: Good flavor, but it was a bit too dry for my liking. The pork was fatty and the burger buns were fairly thick. Overall, I would return for the soybean noodles. I know a lot of Chinatown don't have reusable plates and utentils, but the only thing that keeps me from returning here more often is this place relying on single-use plates and containers. It's basically an order-first, take-out only place with tables inside for dining. read more

In general, it does not look particularly clean. They keep the garbage can right in front of the window outside the store. Very un appealing. Food is mediocre and the dumplings are awful. Thick and gummy skins. There was a little sliver of wood in one of my dumplings. Went there once would never go back. Very disappointing. I love dumplings and unfortunately, the only one on the upper east side that I could find is tri dim Shanghai, which is wonderful! Problem is they only make one dumpling, that I like which is the peashoot dumpling. read more

I'm so glad they have a location in UES! It's quite small and more of a grab-and-go place but they do have some seating. You can either order at the counter or on a touch screen (which is always a nice option). I got the pork biang biang noodles which were cooked perfectly with the right amount of chewiness. There is a little spice to it, but had just enough heat to get the taste buds tingling without burning them. I will definitely be back! My friend loves the pork burger here, so that is definitely on my radar. read more

I really really liked my noodles it was a great portion size not too small and not too big. Dumplings were good but the broth was amazing I drank it separately. Also you got 10 dumplings for $10 I thought that was a steal! 100% add the chili oil and mature vinegar to your noodles. Service was extremely quick and the ambiance is similar to a quick grab and go place with a couple of tables to sit! read more

I love Super Taste in Chinatown, so when I heard they were opening an UES location I was ecstatic. However this menu is more limited than their OG location. So I'm giving them 3 stars instead of 5 because the pork and chive dumplings at this location are $7.95, compared to the $4.95 at their OG location.... What we ordered: - Steamed pork and chive dumplings - Spicy beef noodle soup - really good/tender beef - pork noodles There are 4 tables inside, but it's definitely more of a takeout place. read more

A comfort food place for me. Delicious dumplings coupled with hand pulled noodles for cheap and with a rating of A for sanitation!

The food is so good, I got the beef noodle soup and the chicken and chive dumplings and I loved it. The people are so nice and bring out the food so fast! It's a small restaurant but is very cute, there is a kiosk to order but you can also order with the person at the desk. 5/5! read more

Super Taste - Beef Noodles Soup Super Taste - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

Having tried the location in Chinatown, I'm very happy that they opened a branch on the UES. The menu selection here is more limited compared to their other location but still offers most of their classics. My go to is the hand pulled noodles in hot and spicy soup. It comes with a good amount of marinated beef in an extremely flavorful broth and the the noodles are quite chewy. The service is solid. Overall I would recommend. read more

Great spot for soup, noodles, dumplings, etc. it is a go to for me in the neighborhood and I even had them cater a staff meal, that was very well received.

Great dumplings at a great price (yes it is a bit high but also you get a ton of dumplings), this place fills a food gap that the UES needed to fill. The staff was very kind too. Their fried dumplings have a unique shape that resembles a taco. The fold at the top accentuates the crunchiness, while the open sides allow for steam to escape, maintaining the texture better. Apparently this shape is a family-original style, which is very cool. read more

Small store but big flavors. The dumplings here are magical. The staff is very friendly and serves your table if you order in. Not too many seats, best for small parties. Food is lightning fast. I recommend you order the additional spice levels because they're very mild. Priced fairly considering it's in UES. I wish I lived closer to this location. Would return if in the area! read more

We got sesame noodles and steamed dumplings. Not sure if it was me or them. I have tried many Chinese cuisines, and this one didn't hit the spot. We ordered it to go and ate it at our hotel, maybe we needed to order it there and eat it there. Will try again at a later time. Sorry no pictures. read more

Outstanding food and lovely service. We ordered the spicy pork noodles and beef noodles and both were excellent. The server was a sweetheart who guided us through the menu and helped us pick what to order. I'll definitely be back! read more

There aren't many items on the menu, and if you're not into crazy spicy food, it's even more limiting, but for what IS on the menu, this place is excellent. If you don't know what something is or need help, the staff are very attentive. Get a soup, pork baos, and some dumplings. The environment won't blow you away, but it's a great addition to the neighborhood. read more

Hole in the wall spot for noodles and dumplings. I had the Dan Dan noodles ($13.50) with chicken and a side of pork and chive dumplings ($7.95). The ramen was flavorful and delicious. My only complaint is the amount of chicken and it was kinda bland. The dumplings were your classic dumplings, nothing special but hit the spot. Overall a nice spot . 6.47 / 10 read more

Super Taste's second act on the Upper East Side lives up to its Chinatown origins, and then some. The atmosphere strikes the right balance between tradition and modernity, without being overly fussy. The Pork Burning Noodles don't disappoint. The noodles are texturally perfect, and the Sichuan sauce delivers a complex heat that resonates rather than overwhelms. The Sichuan-style dumplings are another win--meaty, juicy centers encased in a balanced skin, all swimming in a nuanced, spicy sauce. But let's cut to the chase--the Veggie Dumplings. Exclusive to this location and recommended by the owner, these were THE highlight. The combination of veggies is masterfully executed, offering a surprisingly complex flavor profile. These aren't just a nod to vegetarians; they're a standout dish that could convert even the most devout carnivores. PS: try the white gourd drink - weirdly refreshing - and a super unique taste I haven't had anywhere else. read more
