"The opening of Super Taste felt like groundbreaking UES restaurant news, right up there with the return of cottage fries at J.G. Melon, and Papaya King moving from one side of the street to the other. Swing by this Chinatown noodle spot’s second location, for a stewed pork burger on a sesame pancake bun that might be the best $5.95 you can spend within a mile of the Met. This small storefront is geared towards takeout, but you can eat a plate of fried pork and chive dumplings at one of the tables if desired. Or walk 15 minutes to Central Park, and enjoy your Lanzhou-style, spicy beef hand-pulled noodle soup under some trees." - sonal shah, willa moore, will hartman, neha talreja
"Choose from an array of dumplings like fried pork and chive or an array of Sichuan-style dumplings, as well as of-the-moment spicy Mount Qi noodles, hot-and-spicy beef noodles, and more at this uptown branch of the pulled-noodle specialty shop." - Melissa McCart

"I noted that a popular hand-pulled noodle shop opened a second location, continuing to offer affordable hand-pulled noodles served in broths and sauces. The new spot is at 1502 First Avenue, between 78th and 79th streets." - Emma Orlow
"In 2050, food historians will probably declare the 2023 opening of Super Taste as having changed the Upper East Side takeout scene forever. Groundbreaking restaurant news, right up there with the return of cottage fries at J.G. Melon, and Papaya King moving from one side of the street to the other. At this Chinatown noodle spot’s second location, nothing costs over $13.50, and the stewed pork burger on a sesame pancake bun might be the best $5.95 you can spend within a mile of the Met. This small storefront is geared towards takeout, but you could eat a plate of fried pork and chive dumplings at one of the tables if desired—if not, walk 15 minutes to Central Park, and enjoy your Lanzhou-style, spicy beef hand-pulled noodle soup under some trees." - Willa Moore
