Awesome small restaurant serving the Taiwanese classics. Had the beef noodle soup, oyster omelette, and fried chicken, but the most impressive thing might have been the way they marinated their garlic cucumbers – a perfect combination of tart, garlicky, and spice.

Ooodles is a pretty authentic Taiwanese Street Food joint in Bayside, NY. Shares a small parking lot with the plaza space and there’s limited cafe and high top seating if you wish to dine in. The standout dishes are their oyster pancakes, pork belly anything, and the Taiwanese Sausages served with raw garlic. You can customize almost every dish of Noodles or rice bowls (adding spices, oils, extra proteins, etc). The popcorn chicken and fried chicken sandwich is very tasty!
As you walk in the Restaurant, you immediately get a homey atmosphere in this place! The food was served very quickly. The Authentic Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup is excellent as the broth is very thick and flavorful. The beef that they use is half tendon half meat, which is the best combo that a merchant can use when preparing this dish! Overall, the food is excellent! I would definitely come back again!
As a bonus, their pickled cabbage and peanuts side dish are excellent too!

I recently visited Ooodles Noodle House and found the experience to be quite mediocre. The menu for the day included Steamed pork buns, Salt and pepper chicken, Tomato braised beef noodle soup, Everything malatang with rice, Lemon aiyu jelly, and Taiwanese milk tea.
The Steamed pork buns were a disappointment with the buns not being fresh and turning out to be quite dry. The only redeeming quality was the braised pork belly which was perfectly cooked. The mix of sweet sugar and peanut along with the cilantro and pickled mustard leaves tried to salvage the dish, but the dryness of the buns was hard to overlook.
Next was the Salt and pepper chicken, which turned out to be the star of the meal. The chicken was tender, well-marinated, and had a crispy texture. The accompanying sour cabbage worked wonderfully with the chicken and the spicy Taiwanese msg seasoning added an extra layer of flavor. This was by far the best thing we ordered.
The Tomato braised beef noodle soup was average at best. While the broth was deliciously peppery and the noodles were chewy, the beef was slightly dry which took away from the overall taste. The tangy tomato flavor did add to the broth, but the dish lacked a wow factor.
The Everything malatang with rice was an assortment of random things thrown together in a malatang broth. The flavors felt disjointed, and having it with rice felt a bit weird. It was still a decent dish, but certainly not something I would recommend.
On a lighter note, the Lemon aiyu jelly was refreshing, lightly sweet with lemon jelly chunks, and a strong citrus flavor. It was a nice palate cleanser. The Taiwanese milk tea was unique but hard to describe, tasting something like a cross between chai and Hong Kong milk tea.
The ambiance was not great, with the constant bass-heavy gym music from next door being quite annoying. The interior was plain and did not add much to the dining experience. There were also free sour cabbage and salted peanuts, which were wonderfully savory and had a good roasted salty flavor.
In conclusion, the food at Ooodles Noodle House was mediocre at best. Considering it as Taiwanese fast food, for the price, there are definitely better places out there for Taiwanese cuisine. If you plan on visiting, I would suggest taking the food to-go and enjoy it in a more comfortable setting.
If you’re looking for authentic Taiwanese home cooked food, this spot is it! Definitely will be coming back !
I tried their beef noodles soup, and it was absolutely delicious!!! The tenderness of the beef and the soup base was just perfect. Taro cake was crispy outside soft inside. Salt pepper chicken was on point.
