Ok Canaan - Oyster eggs - Taiwanese Near Me - Flushing, New York

See all

We now come here almost every time we have a large group activity in Flushing. It's truly a hidden gem, despite being just a bit away from the subway line. We most recently ordered the following (list below). Recommend you call in advance - this is a real authentic and down-to-earth family-feel kind of place, and dishes were served fresh by a small staff. In fact, in our previous visit they literally got a fresh fish specially for us when we called in advance. The people who work here appear to be devoted to their craft (and kind souls), and the quality of the food shines through. My family is Taiwanese and I grew up with the cuisine. Numbers 2, 11, 12, 14, 15 (in my list below) are my favs, but our large group of 15ish people really enjoy the dishes across the board. I gotta say that their oyster omelette (oah jian) is very much the best and most authentic I've had in all SF, LA, NY, and anywhere else in the US. It's truly excellent and reminds me very fondly of Taiwan night markets. 1. Braised pork with rice 2. Oyster omelette 3. Pork w bean curd 4. Fly's head 5. Braised pork feet w Soy bean 6. Beef w water spinach 7. Stir fry cabbage 8. Golden red bean pancake 9. Scallion pancakes 10. Stir fry snow pea 11. Popcorn chicken (yen su ji) 12. Three cup chicken 13. House special egg tofu 14. Beef in black pepper sauce on sizzling plate 15. Eggplant with basil read more

Don't sleep on this place! Probably the most authentic and homey Taiwanese food I've had in all of NYC. Only a 10 min walk from flushing main st, but it's worth going out of your way! Highlights were the Taiwanese cabbage, fly's head, braised pork rice, hainan chicken, and popcorn chicken. Everything we ordered was amazing and feels like your mom's home cooking. read more

Came here for lunch. They have lunch options for good price but we decided to go with salt and pepper chop and string beans. Both were great! The waitress was super nice and made the recommendation for the salt and pepper pork chops. We also had the scallion pancake which was good. Food was not salty and did not contain MSG Definitely going to return to try other dishes! read more

My family and I came here for lunch on a cold Sunday. The place was empty, except for maybe a party in their private room. We were seated right away. After we sat down, we realized the place was FREEZING. It was probably 30/40s outside and they had not turned on the heat. We put our coats on and were served "hot" tea, which I thought would've helped us warm up. I'm not sure if they just don't serve hot tea or it was so cold that the tea's temperature dropped immediately because it was so cold. Then the food came out, albeit REALLY slowly, which was odd because there was hardly anyone there. When the food did come out, it was completely LUKEWARM. It's hard to judge the taste of food when it's tastes like leftovers not heated through. Short story, we did not like the food and did not have an enjoyable experience. read more

Great restaurant for Taiwanese food. Like other reviewers said, the menu is a mixed bag of everything... from szechuan to Cantonese...however I have to say their Taiwanese part of the food is really good. We only ordered Taiwanese food, which was pretty authentic. Minced pork over rice, flies' head (minced green leeks with pork) and salted crispy chicken. They were all delicious! Service was great too. Will definitely come back! read more

Ok Canaan - Cabbage in XO Sauce XO, Taiwanese Style Stinky Tofu Meatball with Napa, 3 Cup Intestine, Braised Pork Rice with Egg - Taiwanese Near Me - Flushing, New York

This is my go to Taiwan spot for a few years, even before covid. Love their smoked duck, soft and tender, best to eat when it just came out and still warm. I am also a big fan of the pork liver dish which I ordered almost every single time, not a dish you see in other Taiwan restaurants. They made the liver caramelized on the edge and soft in the middle, really love it when eaten with the garlic. Cangyingtou was good as well, flavourful and less oily than some other Taiwanese places. Spicy intestines in hot pot is good to eat during the winter months.with sour and spicy flavor. Service was very friendly even though they are always short-handed. Although I have never tried their Benton boxes, but heard a bunch of people ordering over the phone. Overall a very solid Taiwanese restaurant which I like it over the Main Street Imperial Taiwanese Gourmet which went a bit downhill in the past years. read more

Ok Canaan - Smoked duck and stir fried pork liver.. which we couldn't wait and had a few pieces already - Taiwanese Near Me - Flushing, New York

I really like their beef shank and tendon casserole. Pretty much the same as Ok Ryan's. Basically beef stew with lots of tendon and turnip cooked long and slow till everything is extremely tender. Lil bit too soft for me but L actually loves the way they make it here. He says it's even better than when I make it. Well I want some texture... Anyway, it's really saucy too, so it's good with a bowl of rice which is not included. Mostly Chinese fast food restaurants include a pint of rice with entrees but authentic Asian restaurants do not... unless it's a lunch special. It's always been like this... read more

This place is very hard to find, especially not too close to 7 train and its outside is under construction, so very hard to see. But I am so happy to find this place on Yelp. One of the greatest Taiwanese food, highly recommend it! I ordered fly head, soft tofu, cabbage with Chinese bacon, spicy vermicelli, and pork belly with preserved cabbage. read more

The food is pretty much the same as the OK Ryan's. The decor is nicer here than the OK Ryan's. Both restaurants serve authentic Taiwanese dishes. The selection is large, way beyond just the Taiwanese fried chickens and stinky tofu. The taste and freshness of each dish are top notch! We are regulars! read more

Three styles of stinky tofu... what more could you want? How 'bout great service and understanding staff? (I made a reservation for 5... only I showed up.) It is a hike from the subway, but it's worth it. I spent just a week in Taiwan, but this seems pretty authentic to my taste. Spice has a real kick, which I like. But if you don't, you can ask them to tone it down. No alcohol, I'm afraid, but it's a good place to start BEFORE you hit the bars. read more

Called to ask if they're open, yes they are Spent 15 minutes trying to place pickup order on their official website and keep getting a "can not access menusifu merchant pos" error when checking out, with all three forms of payment including paying in store on pickup. Safari on iPhone. Showed up at restaurant, it's very closed. Same address and phone number on Yelp and google maps. Google maps says they're closed, Yelp says they're open on Mondays. Where is the number going?? Also it would be nice if juice and boba menu options were in English in addition to chinese read more

We stumbled upon this place on a rainy Friday and decided to check it out. We thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered. We tried salty fried shrimp, 1/2 crispy duck, lamb in fennel sauce, and pancake with beef. Everything was delicious and food came out pretty fast. Service was also friendly and attentive. We will be back again for some yummy Taiwanese food. P.S. They have a parking lot in the back with selected spots. read more

Stinky tofu on point. Decently stinky and the pickles were tasty. Service was great.

While it's not Taiwan, Ok Canaan hits the spot. They have all the classic Taiwanese foods like stinky tofu, oyster pancakes, etc. Not too far from downtown Flushing, but definitely worth the hike when you have to have Taiwanese food! read more

OMG! I had a wonderful dinner at friend's wedding at OK Canaan last night! I have been this restaurant few times for quick lunch, but I never knew that they have wedding menu. IT WAS AMAZING!! I like the every dish that we had on our table, they all are delicious. There are more dessert, fresh fruit in the end, but I miss the pictures. I wanna tell their chef " I feel your warm heart from your dishes, you did a great job!". Thank you for your service, we enjoy the food there. read more

Stopped by this place for a quick lunch and was a bit disappointed. The service was great and the restaurant is clean, but taste was below average. We ordered the Fried Stinky Tofu which was dry, although the preserved cabbage that came with it was flavorful. The Hainan Chicken wasn't served authentically - it seemed like they simply boiled the meat and placed a sweet and sour sauce on the side. The Stir Fry Cabbage with Dry Pork was just average. However, I'd order the Watercress Soup again! Very light and loaded with the traditional ingredients. read more

Since I saw the reviews I was tempted to come for a trial. Then I did. Very satisfied. Their food is a real deal! very authentic Taiwanese cuisine. The flavor is totally the same as those in Taiwan. Pork Intestine vermicelli and sesame oil pork kidney are very yummy. Especially the sesame oil one they add lots of sesame oil as well as rice wine which makes the dish flavorful. It smelled great and tasted even better! Would come here again and for the new year meal as well. read more

Food was absolutely amazing, authentic and well executed! We ordered the salt and pepper fried soft shell crabs (bae fung tong style) and was absolutely blown away by how delicious it was! Don't be fooled by the lack of decor or ambience vibes, if you're in the mood for some serious good food, know you will be served with amazing dishes and topped off with equally amazing service! Thank you for a wonderful dinner! read more

I'm being nice and rounding up from 3.5 stars for effort but in all truth the food would probably round down to a three. We have been to most, if not all, of the Taiwanese restaurants in the NYC area and unfortunately there isn't a truly great one at present, the options in LA are better and nothing holds a candle to what is on offer in Taiwan itself... currently the best of the lot is still probably Main Street imperial a little south of here but it's refreshing to see a new restaurant join the fold. On entering you are welcomed by authentic Taiwanese ladies and they do really try. The red decor is really weird and out of place, I wonder if they didn't renovate much from the restaurant that was here before. Layout is somewhat awkward in the restaurant as it is pretty deep but not very wide. The menu is a mishmash if Taiwanese food, some Szechuan (which is reasonable to have in some Taiwanese joints) and some northern/dongbei features (I don't think the Taiwanese do the sticky fried smothered in molasses/sugar taro dessert thing). We went with some dishes that should be decent at a Taiwanese place: Fried stinky tofu appetizer: the pao cai veggies with it weren't good. Tofu was fried ok but not that stinky and texture could be a bit better (I think they cut them too thin). We used to bring stinky tofu to a Korean friend to scare him (loves kimchi, runs away from stinky tofu- go figure) but I don't think he would even be scared of these, benign and bland as they were. Sauce was a bit off and too thick. C+ Red oil wontons: ok if only because two days ago we ate at the horribly inauthentic Golden Rich "Taiwanese" restaurant in Brooklyn and it was sickly sweet and much worse. Seemed to be over boiled as the filling was too hard. B- Ke jia xiao chao (stir fried squid/tofu/pork/celery): not bad but not really spicy enough, they didn't use the right peppers. Portion size was good (notable as Main Street imperial has a tiny portion size). A- Water boiled beef (shui zu niu rou): Not bad, decent portion size, however this is the non Szechuan Taiwanese version. Don't expect any numbing or for it to be that spicy. Makes me realize the version I make at home is probably too sweet. B Ants climbing a tree: basically vermicelli with ground pork. I'm not sure why we ordered this. It was kind of on a whim, the vermicelli were not gummy at least. They used a spicy sauce with it (very generic store bought tasting) that didn't seem to match the best. But most times I've had this, the vermicelli have been gummier which is really bad... B We wanted to really like this place more. As sad as it sounds, if they improved the environment it might make things better but as it is, it felt kind of like eating sort of average to decently cooked food in an unappealing environment, which makes the overall experience less appetizing. I think we would go back to try some other dishes at some point but wouldn't necessarily rush back. Prices are average to slightly high for comparable places; though portion sizes are better than average which makes the overall value ok. read more

Not bad food is good , good price . Overall it's a pretty good place to get some legit Taiwanese food

I've never felt compelled to write a review before, it's just never felt important to me. However, my dining experiences at OK Canaan have made me change my ways. After coming here for lunch and dinner on multiple occasions, trying a variety of different dishes, I can safely say that this is the best restaurant in Flushing. I don't just mean the best Taiwanese restaurant, I really mean the best RESTAURANT. I've lived in Flushing all of my life and there have been many a great restaurant to come through this neighborhood but nothing as consistently amazing as here. Normally, I guess, reviewers would write down what they ate and which dishes were the highlights/lowlights. I've never had a single dish from here that wasn't of wonderful quality. The three-cup chicken, the pan fried egg w. basil, the house special egg tofu, even the gosh darn soup is amazing. I love everything here. My experience at OK Canaan is always comfortable, I feel like I'm at home. The wait staff, though limited to one or two people usually, is always really extremely attentive and friendly. It's the cherry on top. Get down here and try this place out, you will not regret it. read more

Went here for family late lunch. It was pretty empty when we went. Ordered a few traditional common Taiwanese dish. Overall the food was pretty good. There was one waitress who served us. She was very friendly and attentive. I would defiantly come back again. read more

Food was decent but the low rating was for service there was only one waitress and the fact that they didn't open the ac. The place was sweltering and it was 80+ degrees outside with high humidity. So uncomfortable eating there I wanted to leave asap. The oyster pancake had no egg, it was all starch and tiny oysters. The beef noodle soup was the best dish but only had 4 pieces of beef and weird they put broccoli in it. The intestine noodles had weird noodle texture not like Taiwan. Flavor was ok. read more

This place is on main st, flushing .. they have lots of take out orders, so be ready to wait for your order to be a little slow. Food was really good, closest to Taiwanese food I had at the New York Food court that closed. Stinky tofu was really good and oyster pancake was great. Price are reasonable . Service meh !!! But better take out food to go !! read more

Pretty authentic Taiwanese flavors! We ordered kidneys, stinky tofu, bamboo with meat and string beans. All with good flavors. A little on the pricy side but portions are decent. Depends on which app you order your food from, they may not include rice, which you will then have to pay extra for. One star off for really long delivery time(1.5hrs) Overall pleasant experience! read more

My wife and I had the Fried Pork Liver, Ground Pork w bud chive black beans and Spicy Intestine hotpot. They were all good but the Fried Pork liver is the best liver dish that we have ever tasted in the US. It is so good that we could hardly prevent ourselves from gorging on it. Next time, we will need to bring friends to share it. My compliments to the chef! Worth the trip to flushing from Connecticut. read more

I only ordered take out so I'm not sure how the ambiance is. The pork chop lunchbox is very good. Recommend that over the chicken lunchbox. I personally like the stinky tofu but is very aromatic, so it is not for the general public. But if you know how stinky tofu is, I would also recommend it. Ok Ryan (located on block after Skyview mall) is another branch of theirs. read more

I ordered the family style, 3 dishes for $27.50 that comes with soup. The portion size is meant for 3 people (it comes with three things of rice). The dishes looked a bit small at first glance, but they do pack it full so it was enough food. The portion is probably about the same as the over-rice dishes, so it's not really much of a deal... We got the three cup chicken, pork with bamboo shoots, and the string bean with bean curd. It came with tomato egg soup, the most basic of basic soups, and I wasn't really a fan. Three cup chicken is usually my favorite Taiwanese dish and I always order it when I see it on the menu, but this was THE worst three cup chicken I've ever tasted. They use boneless chicken cubes instead of the usual chicken wings and the flavor was just awful. We hardly touched it. It felt like the chicken had started to go bad and they tried to mask it with the sauce but it didn't work. The pork and bamboo shoots was pretty good, but my favorite was the string bean with bean curd. That's probably the only one I would order again. Overall, it's not bad (except for the terrible chicken) but nowhere near as tasty as 66 which is now closed. Also, I know the soup is free, but for the price, it should really come with soup that took some effort. Mama Lee in Bayside and Pearl Garden in Whitestone have much better soups that are also free. read more
