There are items on the menu which we enjoy and which remind us of Taiwan! 1. Braised, five-spice tofu 5/5; 2. Taiwanese "kimchi" (more of a sweet and sour marinated cabbage which we love) 5/5; 3. Steamed green vegetables; 4/5; 4. Squid balls 4/5; 5. Popcorn chicken 5/5. For some reason our popcorn chicken arrived on a bed of mi-sua. We ate the chicken and left most of the mi-sua which is very heavy. The seating here is TIGHT because it's very popular. They have a take-a-number system. This is not fancy cuisine, but it's solid Taiwanese food which tastes good and is reminiscent of the food at small Taiwanese restaurants on the Island. Service here is stellar.
The food came super quickly! Casual atmosphere with cute lanterns on the ceiling. It was quite cold. Every time the door opened, it became chilly even when seated inside eating. This was my first time trying mi-sua. The broth is silky with a smoky seafood taste. It became more watery with time. The noodles were short and thin. The standout was definitely the Taiwanese fried chicken--probably the best Taiwanese popcorn chicken we've ever had! It was perfectly seasoned and stayed moist on the inside and crispy on the outside.
Yeah!! I finally got to try an authentic Taiwanese restaurant at First Markham Place. "Hoja" means delicious in Taiwanese and that caught my attention since last year. The decor is full of colourful lanterns and simple furniture. However, the metal chairs are not comfy at all. That could be changed. The service was quick for lunch. I got the business lunch set which the vermicelli noodle soup came quickly. I wish it was hotter in temperature and that it had more coriander. I also had to ask for the black vinegar to go with it which it should have been given. The spicy sauce was already at the table. The pickled cabbage was a nice crunchy side. The winter melon tea was nice, but not enough tapioca since I paid extra for that. The popcorn chicken was amazing. They nailed that one and also, the deep fried tofu. It reminded me of my trips to Taiwan. The boiled veggies were a nice touch to the meal. To end it off, we shared a hot tofu dessert dish. Overall, it was a great experience. There could be some changes to the restaurant, but I know their focus is on two main traditional Taiwanese dishes.
I heard so much good about this restaurant and taiwanese intestine noodles so I stopped by. The food was amazing! Very thin noodles with slimy broth and very tender meat and intestines. I was surprised how tender they were! Everything was good except 2 things: the portion was too small - u need to size up ur order and the online webpage ordering and payment system wasnt working... at that time, i didnt get the server who speaks English well so there was some communication issues. The store was clean and cozy and food was amazing- just get a larger bowl!
3.5/5 We visited again and ordered the braised pork and egg rice and the misua with fried chickens. There was too much rice compared with toppings, honestly the toppings are inexpensive ingredients such as pickled vegetables and minced pork, they could be a little bit more generous and provide more toppings, I felt like eating a big bowl of carb with sauce; the misua is a bit salty. Service was good and efficient as usual. This restaurant is still a great choice when we fancy Taiwanese foods.
Fast and cheap Taiwanese eats in Markham. They offer two portion sizes (regular pictured below) for about $9-10, with a "business set" available at lunchtime Monday through Thursday for extra savings. We've been here multiple times and enjoy both the Lo-bah-png and the Mi-sua with intestines. Very home-cooking style, nothing extraordinary, but a tasty light meal with traditional Taiwanese flavouring. It's a small and casual restaurant with only seating for about 20-25 but it moves quite quickly. You order using a QR code and your phone, and can even pay for your bill directly from your phone. As you don't need to involve waitstaff, this makes it easy to get in and out if you're on a tight schedule. Very convenient, more restaurants should do this!
Portions are quite small though prices aren't high per se. They get 2.5 stars. Tempura was fried fishcake with carrot & five spice powder. It was bouncy & tasty, but the accompanying cracker was tasteless. Mi sua was good with a tasty seafood soup. The intestines & pork were flavourful too. Lo bak png was pretty good & so was the intestine & sausage added to the minced pork. Tofu pudding with toppings was decent.
Cheap eats at First Markham Place. You can get a main here for literally $10 flat, albeit the portion sizes are more like home portions, not the generous ones you typically see when eating out. Dinner for two that included 2 mains, 2 small veg sides, drink and dessert for under $45 including tax? What a deal.... or maybe I just need to eat in Markham more... The menu is quite simple and streamlined, focused on Taiwanese specialties. I don't eat Taiwanese food that often, but some of the ingredients and flavours are familiar. Ordered: - Mi-sua - vermicelli noodle soup with a thick broth similar to shark fin soup. I had mine with intestine and meat strips. It was quite good. - Lo-bah-png - braised pork rice. We had it with Taiwanese fried chicken. - *Recommend enjoying the dishes with some pickled veg. - Shaved ice egg tofu pudding with 3 toppings - Yum! We got to choose ginger flavour for our shaved ice (it was integrated into the ice not drizzled flavourings on top), which was great. One of the toppings was mixed taro and yam balls. I think I'll choose something different next time, it tasted glutinous, like rice cake. I'd rather choose real taro next time. - Winter melon tea was very sweet, but after we drank some and diluted it along the way with water, it was great. Service was pretty efficient and the decor is colourful and lively. Though it's quite interesting... they taped a snack package (?) on the wall and surrounded it with red lucky ribbons... maybe some kind of good luck charm or Feng Shui? Overall, I enjoyed the food and would like to try the century egg and tofu next.
Located in the busy FMP plaza is this Taiwanese restaurant. They specialized in two dishes and offers a small selection of appetizers and desserts to chose from. I love the interior of this place, as it's bright, colourful and vibrant! I also appreciate that this establishment accepts credit card payment - super rare for reasonably priced establishments to offer. Food wise, I loved it! It tastes better than the version I had in Taipei!
Hoja is my go-to place when I am craving for a Taiwanese fix. Great appetizers and very authentic. Good selections on their menu even with desserts. Like their Signature Hot Tofu Pudding. It comes with ginger, red bean, pearls, & taro. Total satisfaction! Expect line-ups at dinner time. So, go early if you want to beat the line.
It's incredible that most of the dishes are still under $10. We were here on Saturday evening. It's busy. We got the number to line up. There were 8 groups of people ahead us. We still decided to wait. It took about half an hour to get a table. The restaurant was not big and not fancy. The staff were really nice. Every one was showing their smiling face entirely. Saying sorry to us about the wait. And they tried to give me a chair to have a seat with a baby. We got a small kid's bowl, kid's fork, and high chair. The menu was really old school with the reusable plastic paper, so customers can write on it and erase it for next table. Save paper, save high-tech fee. They have the small size bowl with original price and midsize bowl for +$1. Small bowl was too little, most of adults would take middle size. And the fried chicken we ordered 2 dishes, because it was snack size ($8.99). We got a bowl of pork rice, and a bowl of double meat (pork meat and pork intestine) noodles. The soup of my noodles was not too salty, I personally preferred it. The pork rice bowl was too much fat inside, but tasty. The highlight was the Winter melon with all 3 toppings. We all like that. 3 different types of bubbles. We have to come back to try other dishes.
I always see a long line up, so I never had a chance to try it. The menu was underwhelming - not a lot of selections although the prices were attractive. The portions were super small though. We ordered one rice, one noodle and one dessert for two people. I would suggest ordering 3-4 dishes. The pork rice was basically all fat and not really a lot of meat. The noodles were different and the soup was super thick. Popcorn chicken was average and intestines had a strong smell. I don't think I'll come back unless they expand their menu.
We waited 45 minutes on a weekend evening. The place was busy but the service was quick. I got the popcorn chicken with noodles. Like others have said, the consistency of the soup is thick. It has a very strong unami flavour. I am no expert in Taiwanese food by any means but I did not particularly like it. The flavours seemed to lack slightly, and the popcorn chicken got really soggy mid way. All of us paid a few extra dollars to upgrade to the regular size but it wasn't a very big bowl. Overall, it's a decent place, cute and trendy but maybe not my cup of tea.

The tofu pudding is sooo much better than when I first had it during their grand opening. I ordered the one with ginger ice cream which I absolutely loved and it was not too sweet. It's a must order every time I visit!! Also tried the winter melon tea with 3 toppings. While this was good, I felt it was too sweet. The misua was good as usual and I actually prefer it more than Taiwan. The pomelo flavour radish is also unique and balances out the other dishes. read more

Saw many reviews of this place when it first opened and I finally got to try it this year. Small portions but great if you are looking for something light. Got the mixed noodles and mixed chicken and pork rice. Also got the sweet potato fries to start, very sweet. It's similar to the honey butter chips. The noodles had a Smokey flavour, very different than any noodles I've had. Loved the intestines and beef, tender and flavourful. The space was nicely decorated. Order via app and pay at the counter. Food came out quickly, everyone looked cooked already on the hot table. read more

This is an authentic Taiwanese spot specializing in a small menu of mi sua, braised pork rice, and side dishes/snacks. We found the food to be tasty and fairly priced. The signature thick texture of the mi sua didn't hold up throughout the meal and became watery halfway through, sadly. Service is efficient. Expect a queue on weekends. You can join the waitlist by leaving your number at the iPad stand at the entrance. read more
Came here to try this Taiwanese for lunch as I have heard good things about this restaurant. I ordered the business lunch set. There is a choice of rice or noodle and it comes with a side dish and a drink. I got the pork intestine noodle and the wintermelon drink. The noodle is not the typical noodle in soup. The soup base is a thicker soup with high viscosity. A little different than what I expected but the flavour is very rich and there are plenty of pork intestines. The portion is a little small and it might not be enough if you are very hungry. The price is quite affordable. For $11.99, it's a great deal and the wintermelon drink is very refreshing! read more
I've seen a lot of buzz around this spot and heard from my cousin that it tasted very comparable to the food she had in Taiwan while travelling abroad. I am a huge huge huge fan of Taiwanese food and this place gets my stamp of approval. It's pretty much on par with what I think is the GOAT of Taiwanese food here in the GTA, that being Papa Chang's. Anyway, I had the Taiwanese popcorn chicken rice bowl for lunch which was around $10 + tax and it was the perfect portion for lunch for me. The inside is decorated so beautifully and vibrant. You can see the workers preparing food behind the counter. They had a mountain of popcorn chicken ready to go. For a random Wednesday at lunch it was so packed. The parking lot at FMP is always packed too but a Wednesday in early December?? Anyway, this spot really lived up to the hype. I would totally recommend. read more
Came here for dinner with my boyfriend. The food was decent however the braised meat was 90% fat bits and no meat. We ordered the Taiwanese sausage on rice and the other their famous minced meat rice with added toppings. The Taiwanese sausage was really dry.. it looks like maybe they airfry it? But it was extremely dry. It's a good quick eat spot however just mediocre for me. read more

GET THEIR WINTERMELON TEA (with all three toppings) but the tea is so nice and refreshing. It is a bit more on the sweet side but not overly sweet! Their tapioca was the perfect chewy consistency and the aiyu jelly and agar bubbles were great. We got their intestines vermicelli, minced pork rice and some sides to share. The vermicelli is goopy and the flavouring is good. I prefer the vermicelli to the rice bowls. Portions are decent. We also really enjoyed the deep fried cuttlefish balls! There usually is a line but it goes relatively fast. Not too bad. read more
We came here at 6pm on Sunday, and waited for 15mins to get seated - not too bad in the weekend. The mi sua noodles here are very authentic, reminding me of the food I had in Taiwan. We also tried the basil salted crispy chicken, which was perfectly seasoned and had a satisfying crunch. The sweet potato fries were a great side - crispy on the outside and soft inside. Love it! Overall, the flavors were spot on, making this a great spot for anyone craving an authentic experience. The vibe of the place is lively, with charming decor. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole experience enjoyable. I definitely recommend checking it out! read more

Finally got to try out this Taiwanese restaurant at First Markham Place. It's a small space but seems pretty efficient. When you enter you can join the waitlist by checking in at the kiosk. Very convenient as it lets you step out because the restaurant texts you when your table is ready. We went in a Friday for lunch and it was fairly busy, the wait wasn't too ling though. We ordered the pomelo pickled radish, basil fried chicken, taiwanese sausage, minced meat noodles and the rice with braised pork. Portion sizes are small so make sure you order some apps along with your mains. The food was all very flavourful, only complaint was that the rice could've used a bit more seasoning. I docked a star because the price was a bit pricey for the size of the dishes. Would recommend to try at least once! read more
Rich broth for the noodles. Umami bomb! You really taste the bonito flakes! The portion sizes are small, but is good value for the price. Everything on the menu is less than $10, so you can try lots of stuff. Good service, staff was quick to attend to your needs when you call them. read more
Visited HOJA Mi-Sua after seeing it recommended all over social media. Parking was available out front but if you've been to FMP, it gets ultra busy around noon and dinner. The restaurant itself is small with pretty tight seating, but the decor has a cozy street food vibe. I ordered the Lo-Bah-Png (Braised Pork Rice) with Taiwanese Sausage, Basil Salted Crispy Chicken to share, and an Iced Wintermelon Tea. The food came out fast for everyone else, but mine took longer and wasn't hot. Most of the items are not made to order, but are pre made and sitting under a heat lamp waiting to be served. The crispy chicken arrived first. It was alright but lacked basil. The braised pork rice was underwhelming. There was a scoop of fatty pork bits, but very little actual meat. The ratio felt more like 70% fat to 30% meat. Sausages were dry and barely warm. More pickled veggies would've helped balance the heaviness. There was not a lot of intestines for the order of Intestine Misua. Be careful with the chili oil because it's very spicy. Lastly, the Wintermelon Tea was far too sweet for me, easily above 100% sugar level (no option to change when ordering online and I didn't think of asking). Service was friendly, but overall, the food didn't live up to the hype. I left disappointed and am not in a hurry to return. read more

Tasty food. The price is also considered okay since the portions are quite big. Will definitely come back to try other foods read more
I heard about a new Taiwanese restaurant and was happy to give it a try! The place is inviting and I thought the decor was cute with all the lanterns hanging from the ceiling. On a weekday evening, this place was full but luckily had one empty spot...it was fate! Haha I ordered a few dishes to try and was intrigued with the taiwanese vermicelli! It was delicious. I loved the flavour and it reminded me of a Chinese soup. The dishes weren't large but I guess you can say it was decently priced. The braised rice was okay...wish there were more veggies. I ended up ordering some on the side that were a nice touch. I also tried their tofu dessert and really liked the strong ginger flavours. The service was friendly and prompt and I would recommend it...you can't get these vermicelli noodles anywhere! read more
Friendly service and authentic Taiwanese food. The popcorn chicken minced pork rice was so tasty. The vermicelli was also authentic with side minced garlic I can add in. The sweet potato fries were surprisingly tasty with the plum seasoning. The tofu dessert was such a nice wrap up to our meal. We waited about 20 mins on Friday around 12:30pm. read more

Small dish and taste very Taiwan. Signature noodle must try . I also order mince pork rice and deep fried chicken. The mince pork go with the rice and remind me of night street food in Taiwan. The servers are very polite and efficient. The place decorate like in Taiwan restaurant. There are lots of parking. read more
As a Taiwanese person myself I was very pleased by the authenticity of this restaurant and the friendly and hospitable service. We ordered the mince meat over rice and traditional noodle soup. The milk tea was also surprisingly, very reminiscent of what you would get in the Taiwanese night market. Our group ordered the sweet potato fries with plum powder, which was also very delicious, I would strongly recommend ordering this to share! The interior decor is also very cute and service is fast. Wonderful find! read more
We had to join a wait list to get a table here. We waited around 30 minutes. We ordered a Vermicelli, a Rice dish and other snacks. The food here is very mediocre, I would not really choose to dine here again with so many better options nearby. And I would certainly not like up again. The Vermicelli has a very smoky flavour. The first bite really throws you off but the more you eat it, you get accustomed to the taste. The pork Belly used for the rice is too fatty. It would be better if it wasn't all pork Belly pieces. Other Taiwanese places use fatty minced Pork and that is easier to ingest. The best dish was the fried chicken but it was not outstanding. Overall, the place is nice to try but I do not know why there are so many great reviews. read more
HOJA is a cozy Taiwanese café in Markham that really delivers when you're craving comforting, authentic eats. The space is warm and modern--great for a casual meal or a chill hangout spot. I had the braised pork on rice, which was savory and well-balanced, and the pork intestine vermicelli brought me straight back to Taiwan. The broth was rich and garlicky with just the right tang. To finish, I tried their shaved ice tofu pudding dessert, which was a fun surprise. You get to choose your shaved ice base (I went with brown sugar, but they also have ginger and soy milk) and three toppings of your choice like pearls, taro, mung bean, and red bean...It's light, not too sweet, and super customizable--perfect ending to the meal. Service was quick and friendly, and prices are fair for the quality and portion sizes. Definitely a go-to for Taiwanese comfort food in Markham. read more

It was my fourth time here! First time on a weekend tho!! Hoja offers lunch combo starting from $11.99 on weekdays, that includes a braised pork rice or a noodle of your choice, selected beverage like winter melon tea/ milk tea is included!! My favourite are the pop corn chicken and taiwan sausage rice The vibe was amazing and reminds me the days in Taiwan 10+ years ago LOL read more
The newest popular place for Taiwanese Food in Markham! Located at first markham place on the EAST side of the plaza and you really can't miss their signage! First things first, there's a tablet at the front to queue up virtually because there aren't much space for you to stand at the entrance while the tables and seating are quite small already. The ordering process was quite easy, you can the option to choose between taiwanese vermicelli or braised pork rice dishes (come in different sizes), side dishes, drinks & desserts. Straight forward ordering process, select what you want on the order form & hand it to your server. What we ordered: sweet potato fries with plum powder, Taiwanese Vermicelli (Mi-Sua) w/ intestine (small size), popcorn chicken vermicelli (small) and wintermelon tea w/Aiyu jelly. Taste: intestine vermicelli was more on the bland but very authentic. I usually add chili oil or vinegar if needed but the taste suited my palate since I ordered side dishes and blended in well so I liked to it a lot! The wintermelon drink was very sweet so I might skip this if I'm planning to order dessert next time. Popcorn chicken looked delicious and really, you can't go wrong with their saucy braised pork rice dishes here! Will come again for dinner but expect this place to be busy during lunch time or lineup in advance! read more

Decided to check out the NEW Hojia Mi Sua at FMP after seeing it on social media :) I was really excited to come try the Taiwanese oyster dishes (saw the menu listed on Google - 蚵仔麵線, 蚵仔滷肉飯, 塔香蚵仔酥) but it was not available when I was there yesterday. I guess I will have to come back another time because I love that oyster dish. We opted in for the Popcorn Chicken Mi Sua (aka Taiwanese vermicelli noodles), and the Taiwanese Sausage Lo Bah Png (aka minced braised pork rice). Both were tasty. Some might not like the popcorn chicken drenched in the soup but I thought it was a nice change :) It was our first time trying mi sua, definitely very different from regular noodles, and it reminded me of a soup 碗仔翅 we have in HK lol. The pork rice was up to my standard; it was delicious and the pork was not overly salty/fat. We also ordered the Braised Tofu and Boiled Veggies. Initially, the tofu felt a bit bland, but adding that black vinegar they provided for us, it really elevated the dish. The ambiance was very cute inside with all the handprinted/painted lanterns. It really reminds me of Taiwan. The green/orange theme was also super aesthetic with the chairs and chopsticks! The service was friendly and courteous :) I would want to come back again to try more items, especially the 蚵仔 Taiwanese oysters! read more

I ordered the Taiwanese style vermicelli with intestines. The soup was thick and I really enjoyed the consistency of it. Flavour wise it was also very good. I wish they put more noodles in it though because I was left with a lot of soup which I brought home so I could boil noodles on my own to eat up the rest of it. The intestines tasted pretty good too even though I'm not huge on it. For the customer service, they were really friendly. I went on a weekday for lunch and it was pretty busy. I definitely want to come back and try more of their dishes! read more
