Eatery 19 食全食美

Eatery 19 brings truly authentic Taiwanese cuisine to Syosset, New York—a hidden gem that Long Island desperately needed. The family behind this mom and pop restaurant originally established and operated a beloved shop in Queens, serving authentic Asian food to neighborhoods like Bayside, Elmhurst, and Flushing before relocating their operation to Long Island. Their move created something remarkable: one of the best Taiwanese restaurants in the NYC area, surprisingly located in Syosset rather than the traditional Asian food corridors. The specialties define authentic Taiwanese cooking at its finest. Most authentic railroad bento boxes? Check—the TW railroad chicken and fried pork chops are excellent, featuring tender, juicy meat that captures traditional preparation methods perfectly. Beef noodle soup? Absolutely outstanding, with options like half beef, half tendon combinations that sometimes sell out, requiring customers to call ahead. Various family-style dishes span the menu, from oyster pancakes that blend flavors perfectly with fresh oysters to fried stinky tofu that's incredibly tasty for those open to experiences beyond standard Americanized Chinese cooking. Winter melon tea. Popcorn chicken. Three stew style options. Taiwan noodles. Every dish delivers authenticity.
