Very hipster, very cool. Definitely "cool kids come here" energy but not in an annoying way. Service is always on point. Everyone's been polite and chill even when we're asking for new plates after like every other dish so flavors don't mix. Don't do one entrée per person. Get a mix of small and large plates and share. Way better experience. Food is solid across the board, but the Fly's Head didn't hit for me. It was mostly chives and not much pork. The Lobster Rice Noodles though...so good. Super soft, rich, almost like gnocchi. Menu changes a lot so this might not even be there when you go, but either way you'll be good. read more

Came here because it looked nice from the outside and the place we originally came for down the street had a two hour wait. We've been to their East Village outpost and weren't too impressed but really glad we gave it a second try. Very tasty food and nicely presented. Perfect spot for brunch or lunch/dinner. They serve Variety Coffee too. Servers are friendly and we were seated immediately because we chose bar seating. Would definitely recommend. read more

Win Son is one of my favorite go to places in the city. Without a doubt, the food is always good. Especially on a cold day. 10/10 this food will always slap super hard no debate; I won't hear it. Service is good always; they were a little slower this evening so they had time to tend to the tables. I sat at the bar. Quiet night the other night but always calming a fresh inside with great vibes from the staff and a cool crowd as well. If you're looking for Asian fare in Brooklyn, look no further and thank me later read more

Love Win Son.. the flavors are on point, good variety of dishes and lively vibe. Noodles are delicious here! We also tried the fried eggplant. Loved it all. There's a bit of a wait generally so get ready. But their bakery is across the street (which is also busy). If you keep walking between the two you'll feel like there was no down time lol. read more

This place was very unusual but so good. I loved it. Came here with some friends, waited a bit as it was busy on a Wednesday night but I didn't mind and the server was hostess was nice. Just know, book ahead even on days you think you might not need to. Food was awesome. In particular I gotta reccomend the scallion pancake, lamb ribs, and lobster pasta. All fire. Vibes were great with even some decor for Halloween. Do attend. read more

$28 a person (2 people) for the picture food but I basically took most of the half of my chicken sandwich home. Prices are expensive but portions are decently big. The beef roll was interesting and yummy and well balanced. Didn't blow me away but did think it was yummy. The chicken sandwich was nicely fried but again didn't blow me away but was tasty. Definitely a very heavy meal. read more

Walked in at 9pm on a Saturday and while it was busy inside, we were sat promptly and our dishes came out pretty quickly - but we didn't feel rushed at all. We enjoyed all three dishes - the Marinated Cucumber tasted refreshing on its own but even more addicting with the chili crisp oil on the table. My favorite was the Chicken Wontons - they were tossed in this savory, buttery, glossy sauce that resembled the flavor of Cheesecake Factory's Pasta da Vinci. The Sesame Noodles were super unique with not only a very forward peanut taste but earthy tone. Would love to come again and try more of their dishes! read more

Wonderful, cozy, Taiwanese-fusion restaurant that's perfect for brunch. Make a reservation because they get packed on the weekends! Everything is shareable but definitely don't miss the pork buns - they were perfectly juicy and savory. Another brunch-specific menu item that stood out were the pancakes! Wish I took a photo of them, but it was one large pancake that spanned the width of the plate. Crispy edges surrounded a fluffy center, with a flavored butter on the side and boba-filled syrup. read more

Thought this place was good and fit the neighborhood well. All i tried was the bacon egg and cheese scallion pancake sandwich. I'd rate it about 4/5. Also had a mango jasmine milk tea which i enjoyed thoroughly. It was a little difficult to figure out where to enter not being from the area but once you find it, its a pretty large space with plenty of seating. Staff was kind and service was quick. Probably would come back to try other food items. read more

The cutest little place on the corner for a twist on traditional Taiwanese food (think fusion). Had a reservation for 2 at 6:00, showed up a little early and we were sat immediately. Had the perfect night catching up with a friend over drinks and delicious food. Lychee martini was definitely more on the martini side than the sweet side (but that's what I prefer). Food ranked in order would be 1) wontons 2) beef rolls 3) lobster noodles. Dessert could've fed 4, we were so stuffed but had to make room. Sesame ice cream was the perfect blend of salty and sweet. Would definitely come back to try the other dishes on the menu! read more

Had to wait two weeks for this resy but it was worth the wait. We had: marinated cucumbers - garlic + cilantro, we added the wu yu zi cured mullet roe sloppy bao - minced heritage pork, chili + peanuts clams & basil - green garlic + scallion pancake tofu fly's head- stir-fried doufu gan, garlic chives, yunlin black beans & zhajiangmian - wavy noodles, lamb + fermented bean sauce Holy cow - everything was delicious!!! I only had an issue eating the zhajiangmian because of the spice level, but still very yummy and flavorful. We tried two cocktails, the Plant Daddy (cilantro-mint tequila, matcha, lemon, simple + egg white -- very refreshing!) And vaquero chino (chili infused scotch, lemon, lime, egg white, simple + basil) Service was on point and efficient. I would happily eat here again any day. read more

Win Son is reservation-only and not easy to get into but it is 100% worth it. We finally snagged a table and I loved every single thing about this place. Every dish was incredibly tasty, flavorful, and thoughtfully done. Nothing misses. The flavors are bold yet comforting, and you can really feel the care behind the food. Even the simplest items feel elevated. The vibe is relaxed and welcoming, perfect for brunch, and the menu makes you want to come back again and again. This is one of those spots that lives up to the hype and then some. Hard to get, but once you're in... you get it. Absolute Brooklyn gem read more

The crowd is lively, the service is friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. The food is very tasty. The prices are high, but the ingredients are quality and after all what's not expensive today. The chicken dumplings, chicken sandwich, beef roll, sesame noodles, pork bun fried eggplant and scallion pancakes were all terrific. The cocktails were all well made and delicious. Nice crowd. read more

Think of this place more as a Taiwanese fusion restaurant, and you'll enjoy it a lot more. It's definitely not authentic, but they do a nice job with creative twists. I really liked the wu yu zi mian--the cured mullet roe (aka Taiwanese caviar) noodles--which reminded me of the Asian-influenced Italian spots I love in Taiwan. Their o-a jian isn't authentic at all, but if you think of it more like a jian bing, it works. The pea shoots were delicious and probably the most authentic dish of the night. And I also liked their fried eggplants a lot but I'm just simply a huge eggplant fan in general. This place has been on my list for a while and we were in the area on a Saturday night so we thought, why not try our luck?! So we tried walking-in around 8pm and they told us maybe for an hour so we definitely got really lucky since they're so popular. We got a drink nearby so it wasn't too bad of a wait at all! We're the only Asian customers in the resturant and the restaurant is packed inside and out. The ambiance is nice and lively, I'm very happy for their success! read more

This is a great spot for Chinese food! The fried chicken was delicious, the scallion pancakes and pea shoots were some of our favorites ! It's a nice little restaurant- the tables are very small and hard to accommodate parties of 3. The service was great and the community loves this restaurant and the bakery nearby. Will come back when in the neighborhood! read more

Came by on a random Monday for dinner and drinks and Win Son did not disappoint! We shared a bunch of smaller plates and the lu rou fan. Definitely get the basil clams in the curry sauce as it comes with scallion pancakes you can dip it in. Service was quick and staff were pleasant. Be wary that their single dessert is HUGE. It will easily feed 4. Think caramel glazed donut sandwiched a 4in thick sesame ice cream cube covered in peanuts. read more

Winson is worth the hype always. My pictures don't do it justice but I would fly across the entire country for this restaurant. It has to be my favorite place in NY.

The restaurant would probably be better for lunch vibes. I went towards the evening/dinner and it just felt kind of dark and loud. The food is also geared more towards breakfast/brunch which also did not fit the time at which I went. I would probably enjoy the experience better in the daytime, so I may come back. I ordered the beef tongue sandwich, and it was good! I also ordered a seasonal donut as a sweet treat which was unique and hearty. read more

Get the Pea shoots!!!! The big sister to win son bakery across Graham ave. Scallion pancakes are a classic choice!

Good quality but pricey Taiwanese food. Lu Rou fan 7/10 It is nicely seasoned and prepared and only about half the container is rice. $30. Fried eggplant 6/10 Small serving of eggplant, some salt seasoning. $15. If you want takeout you have to use their website and checkout online. It'll take about 10-15 minutes. Saturday late morning still had lots of seating available. The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly. read more

Ambiance and service were great here! Decided to swing by since my friend and I love the bakery... ...unfortunately the food was very underwhelming and expensive. We had the pan fried pork buns (literally fried xiaolongbao, which is a travesty as a Chinese person), fried chicken and waffles (which was decent but the chicken was undercooked and the batter was goopy), and the Lu rou fan which was egregiously priced at $31 and tasted odd (sour and spicy notes not typically associated with this dish) Overall would not recommend--stick to the bakery across tne street read more

In this part of Brooklyn that I wouldn't normally frequent 15 years ago, I was astounded to see a much gentrified and flourishing multicultural culinary destinations. Came here to sample an inventive Taiwanese fare with a Michelin Bib recognition. It has a sister bakery that sold excellent pastry options reflecting the diversity of its neighborhood. I enjoyed the vegetarian sesame noodles -- read more

My first experience here was several years ago where I was not impressed and questioned its relevance. However, I just went back at the end of 2025 and the experience was amazing. High quality food. Deserving of a Michelin I dare to say. The crab fried rice is a banger. The cocktails are top notch. The restaurant is warm and cozy but definitely too loud. This would normally take my rating down but I was so blown away by the food I had to keep it 5 stars. The service was great. Trendy diverse brooklyn servers are pleasant and attentive. Highly recommend. read more

I loved that there was plenty of seating inside, and I loved the presentation. I would definitely recommend ordering dishes for a group. The serving of sesame noodles was bigger than I expected! That was also my favorite dish. I've never tried sesame noodles with black sesame seeds before, so it was a pleasant surprise! read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! I've been here a few times, and it NEVER disappoints​. We always tend to come on a Friday night, which makes for a busy night and little of the wait, but the food is SO worth it. The ambiance is very Brooklyn, which I love. And the service is always outstanding. I've had several of the menu offerings, and I would recommend everything they serve. Absolutely every menu item is well crafted and thought out with fantastic layering of flavors. They have options for many types of diets, including vegan and gluten-free, which makes dining for folks with dietary restrictions pleasurable. They are also a very allergy-aware kitchen. Also, the thought in the care they put into their service and menu. They also have a fantastic bakery across the street so that you can have something sweet or coffee or tea after your meal in a more casual setting. read more

We went on a Sunday lunch, and the wait wasn't too long(about 15 minutes?) I think overall it was good but not something that is on my mind or too crazy. That being said, it was still good and I rather not judge this on taste too much since people prefer different things. We got 3 things: the dumplings, omelette, and the mullet roe noodles. Not sure if it's something I would be craving to come back to but would still want to look to pick up their cookbook. read more

Win Son serves Taiwanese- American Cusine & is the establishment where a group of us, almost 1 yr. ago, had dinner after enjoying the Holiday YEE @ Sleepwalk (a cool cocktail bar & lounge). We were famished, and It was a quick few minutes' walk to the place. Once we arrived, the tantalizing aromas had me eagerly awaiting to eat. We were so glad that we did not have to wait long for a table -lol. Win Son is in the East Williamsburg / Bushwick section of Brooklyn. It is accessible via the L train to Montrose Ave, the G train to Broadway, as well as via the B 43 and B 60 buses. Win Son has an outdoor patio as well as indoor dining room w/ a bar area. The establishment is casual in nature, yet has elegant decor that includes gorgeous chandelier/ lighting fixtures, etc. We were able to order quickly. Win Son's menu includes small & large plates. Our table ordered various dishes including scallion pancakes, buns, rice & noodle dishes, etc. Such Fantasic Food!

Growing up there used to be a Dominican restaurant at this spot. The food was great. It's now just another overpriced hipster joint with ambient lighting. The food is also overpriced and the portions are small. Honestly if you want Chinese or Taiwanese food, you're better off going to Chinatown. Just take the J-train on Lorimer or Hewes Street. Your wallet will thank you. read more

This was the best food that I've had in a long time from a restaurant for brunch! Everything was exceptionally delicious and prepared in ways that I've never had before. From start to finish there were no complaints and we even had dessert! I can't tell you how rarely that happens and I can't stop thinking about the food! The service was so chill yet so attentive and the ambiance was perfect. The wait staff checked on us appropriately, made suggestions on food and even let me know what was in those delicious marinated cucumbers so I can try to make them at home. I will 100% be back for dinner and for that scallion pancake BEC across the street. Go here!!! read more

I think I came here with high expectations. Win Son has been all over my feed as one of the best Taiwanese restaurants, and I brought a group of coworkers with hopes to share some Taiwanese cuisine with them. While most dishes tasted good, it's like I got something different from what I ordered. Service was also very slow, and required reminders for our drink orders. We started with marinated cucumbers and fried eggplant. We had ordered the fried cured mullet roe topping for the cucumbers, but I definitely didn't see or taste any of that flavor. Nonetheless, these appetizers were tasty! Eggplant was crispy, and the cucumber was garlicky. Next, the oyster omelette with shrimp. Aside from the main ingredients, this barely has any notes of the original Taiwanese flavor. No iconic bouncy (QQ) texture from starch. The sauce, while also inaccurate, was decent. Zhajiangmian had lamb in it. Why? This tasted nothing like the Chinese, Taiwanese, or Korean variations, and was more like a Szechuan lamb noodle. Still, it tasted pretty good? Big chicken bun had a good night market fried chicken cutlet inside. This tasted good and was fried well! Flies head was also pretty authentic, and was a big hit with everyone. Could be spicier, but thats fine. Mullet roe pasta was really tasty. Probably my favorite dish that night. It was creamy and had great bite to the noodles. The Lu rou fan was also pretty good. Very fatty and coats the rice well. Flavor is also a little different, but not as far off as others. Overall, the best I can give win son is a 4/5, leaning towards a 3.5. While the food was mostly tasty, the lack of relation to the name of the original dish they're profiting off of does not sit right with me. Maybe the bakery is better. read more

I'm Taiwanese and I want to love this place. It's always busy so I'm very proud. However after trying it several times I can't say I will be returning unless someone is paying for me because they want to come. Food is delicious and service is good. The flavors of all there and on point. The dishes are beautiful and very modern for Taiwanese. You can go wrong ordering anything flavor wise. For 2 people we got the oyster omelette, clam stew, and Lu ro fan. Oyster omelette is a classic this one just had basil as the sauce. Lots of oysters and shrimp. Delicious. Clam stew was a bit salty but flavors are on point as well. And the scallion pancakes are delish. However I think the pairing is a bit weird. The pancakes didn't soak up the sauce and flavors were exact well together. I think maybe it was going for a mussels and bread thing but I would have preferred rice on the side or something. Lu ro fan has perfect taste of what the original dish should be and of course comes with a delicious marinated egg. They don't have an option of hard boiled if you don't like runny eggs. I dock on star from this place mainly because it's over priced. Everything feels 5-8 dollars over priced. At least maybe for me since I'm not the target audience. 30 dollars for lu ro fan feels a bit much. It's the cheapest type of meat and easiest thing to make at home. I would happily pay 15-16z. Oyster omelette probably 18. The drinks are fine since it's average nyc price. Personally I don't think it's worth it, I'm glad people like it. Visit it if you want to try good Taiwanese food. Be warned the price is a bit on the high side. Besides that check out their breakfast place across the street! read more

As a Taiwanese American who has had a lot of Taiwanese food before, I think this isn't very traditional and is much more American-inspired. I'd honestly give this place probably a 3.5/5, but I'll round up because it was a nice spot overall. We got the tian dou jiang, the o a jian (it's correctly romanized but it took me a second to process what this was), the pan griddled pork buns, and the sesame noodles. Tian dou jiang - I liked this + the you tiao was nice, but $7? I guess that's the price of NYC O a jian - this didn't really taste like the actual dish from Taiwan, but I guess that's their way of Americanizing it. When it came out we were a bit confused and thought we were given the wrong dish but it's definitely more Western omlette than the traditional. Pan griddled pork buns - I really don't know what this was, but we were expecting 生煎包 and they were much smaller and soggier than expected. Still decent, but a bit confusing... Sesame noodles - I think these were pretty good, but nothing really to write home about. Overall the food was decent but nothing really special. It kinda bothered me how expensive some of the other items were (like $31 for a lou rou fan? maybe it's large but this would run you like $2 in Taiwan like bruh). Overall I think my mistake was trying to think this would actually be like food from Taiwan but it's just much more Westernized and honestly not like in a way that improves the dish in my opinion. The ambiance was nice though, and we didn't have to wait too long to get seated. read more

3.5, but rounding to 4. Win Son is a modern Asian fusion spot that's great for a group of 3+. All the dishes are recommended to be shared family style. First impression upon looking at the menu -- SUPER overpriced. Taiwanese food is almost never this pricey (up to $30 for essentially a single serving bowl of lu rou fan, zha jiang mian etc.). Dishes that stood out: - Pea shoots: for a reasonable price, they give a good portion. Leans on the sweeter side. - Scallion pancake: the sauce is great. Pancake itself doesn't have enough scallion flavor. - Fried chicken pineapple sandwich: the bun's sweetness pairs well with the fried chicken. Dishes that didn't hit: - Fly's head: not enough meat (or non rice in general), especially for a $30 price point. Would not recommend. - Dan zi mian: overly salty broth. We split the bowl across 6 people, and even that small serving was too salty. read more

The food is fine, it's just your standard white hipster restaurant that serves Asian fusion food (and I usually like those). Win Son just puts the emphasis on "Taiwanese." I think its a solid spot if you live nearby or if the wait is shorter, but not rly worth the extra effort. Everything we got was acceptably average It's the usual pea shoots and pork buns that you can find elsewhere & Zhajiangmian should probs be called lamb noodles (feels similar to Xians). Big chicken bun was good but at the end of the day just a fried chicken sandwich in a pineapple. The one standout was the dessert Fried sweet dough with golden sesame ice cream and a drizzle of condensed milk. It was chewy and sweet, and had a yummy sesame flavor. zhajiangmian $31 pea shoots $15 pan-griddled pork buns $14 big chicken bun $23 tián miàntuán $14* 파전병 BEC 먹을려고 했는데 저녁때라 그냥 식당에서 먹음. 베이커리에서 파는 메뉴랑 다르니까 알고가기. 예약은 5명 부터 가능해서 웨이팅 필수다 ‍ 위치도 불편하고 웨이팅도 오래걸려서 굳이...? 라는 생각이 든다. 채소랑 만두는 흔히 먹는 맛이고, 짜장면은 북경 스타일도 아니고 Xian 느낌...? 치킨 샌드위치는 보로바우를 사용해서 특색은 살렸음. 제일 추천하고 싶은건 디저트다! 쫄깃한 도우랑 고소한 참깨 아이스크림의 조합이 굳. 말은 이렇게 해도 베이커리 메뉴를 먹으러 다시 갈듯 read more
