Hong Kong-style noodles with supersized wontons, fish balls, and tea
"Sitting hunched over a bowl of wontons and hot broth at Maxi’s Noodle is the ideal way to spend a chilly morning. This teeny tiny cafe specializes in Hong Kong-style noodle soup with springy egg noodles and wontons the size of a baby’s fist. You can add supersized dace fish balls and dumplings, or rich beef stew to the mix too. The food comes out fast, and space is limited, so there’s no need to linger here." - carina finn koeppicus, kenny yang, neha talreja, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick
"With two locations in Flushing and another in Chinatown, Maxi’s specializes in Hong-Kong style noodle soup with springy egg noodles and wontons the size of a baby’s fist, both of which are made in-house. The two-bite wontons—filled with juicy pink pork and shrimp—are only one of six available toppings, but they’re a non-negotiable add. Other options include supersized dace fish balls, dumplings, and rich beef stew. Space is limited, and the food comes out fast. On a chilly morning, Maxi’s is the perfect impromptu pit stop for a bowl of hot broth and a milk tea." - neha talreja, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, willa moore
"Maxi’s is a tiny restaurant in Flushing specializing in Hong-Kong style noodle soup with supersized wontons. Even if you go by yourself, you’ll be knocking elbows with the other customers, so it’s not the best space to bring a friend. In any case, you’ll want to give the food your full attention. The soup has springy housemade egg noodles, with optional toppings like beef gravy and fish balls. But the non-negotiable add-ons are their famous, two-bite wontons filled with juicy pink pork and shrimp. With some hot tea on the side, it’s the perfect breakfast." - willa moore, will hartman, neha talreja, carina finn koeppicus
"I saw that Maxi’s Noodle, a Flushing wonton spot that began as a pandemic pop-up, has expanded with a second noodle shop in the neighborhood." - Emma Orlow
"For years I've considered Maxi’s Noodle the place to get supersized wontons in Flushing, Queens; it started as a pop-up before the pandemic and now has a small restaurant with another one on the way. Owner Maxi Lau is opening a second noodle shop this month at 59-20 Main Street (at 60th Avenue); the cash-only business is generally open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. most days, although it opens at 1 p.m. on the day of the grand opening, February 21." - Luke Fortney
