Summary: Veering into more “authentic” Chinese / Taiwanese food, Joy offers something for everyone. Are you craving real-deal appetizers like marinated wood-ear mushrooms, or are you looking for delicious pork belly in a bun – you’ll find both here. Try to avoid peak hours – the line can easily go out the door after 6pm. Stop by the donut/ice cream shop across the street if the desserts here don’t appeal to you. Parking can be a challenge, so buffer time for that.

Great experience at Joy. Arrived around 8:30 and had to wait for a little while for a table. The food comes out wildly fast which is awesome. I got the dan dan noodles and a pork belly sesame bread sandwich. The food was very fresh and filling. The sea salt cream teas are to die for. They are so tasty and not too sweet.

Amidst the hustle and bustle of a Sunday crowd, this Taiwanese restaurant stands out as a beacon of efficiency and culinary prowess. Despite its ever-present full-house, waiting times are miraculously brief, a testament to their streamlined operations. Their rapid transition from ordering to serving, especially under such high demand, is noteworthy. The Chicken rice, described as “god sent,” elevates the dining experience to celestial heights. The savory-focused menu, combined with generous portions and unbeatable pricing, makes this eatery a wallet-friendly haven for gourmets. The staff, navigating the demanding environment with friendliness and professionalism, underscore the establishment’s commitment to excellent service. All these elements converge, rightfully earning its status as a newfound favorite in the realm of Taiwanese dining.

I frequent a lot of restaurants throughout LA County. My friends often ask me how do I judge a good restaurant. Over the years I’ve noticed that the most successful restaurants are frequented by a variety of age groups, and nationalities often repeat customers. Joy on York Street has found that groove without a doubt. You could say the food is simple, but I would have to disagree. They go to extremes to make their dishes, healthy and tasty sourcing varietals that you don’t normally find in restaurants. Hats off to Joy for finding the groove and serving delicious and healthy food. I look forward to many many visits here. I highly recommend you visit Joy on York st !!!

Came here in a small group and the waiter was kind enough to take our order at the table, instead the usual counter as it wasn’t too busy yet. Tried out several dishes including the wonton soup, thousand layer pancake, and minced pork rice. The food is simple, but really good! It got busy after we got our food, and it was 3pm, so definitely a popular place to eat!

The scallion pancake with everything is worth the wait! Recommend starting to line up around 11:45am on a weekend ahead of the 12pm opening.

Very poppin in the evenings so we got takeout. Everything was quite fresh, friends really enjoyed their Dan Dan noods. The thousand layer cake was a bit bland, and quite thick, but I can see the appeal. The other dishes were solid takes on the classics, a tad Americanized but very deep braised flavors. Mochi was chewy and fresh as well, we were stuffed!
