"Open since 2016, Win Son used to be a pain to get into, but now you can get a table without much of a hassle, even at a peak hour. And, as far as we can tell, this Williamsburg Taiwanese restaurant is only getting better. The pan-griddle pork buns are essential, and the “egg bomb” with its flaky, egg-coated scallion pancake is one of the best ways to consume steak tartare in the city. Come for a casual group meal, or bring someone you need to impress." - team infatuation
"There are exactly two round tables at Win Son, and they’re right in the front. If you’re eating here with five or more people, they’ll let you make a reservation—and that kind of rocks, because this place is usually walk-in only. The food is Taiwanese-American, almost everything costs less than $30, and we particularly like the big chicken bun, fried eggplant, and beef roll. Also the lychee martinis." - willa moore, bryan kim, matt tervooren
"Taiwanese dishes like pork belly over rice with a soft-boiled egg and pan-fried pork buns are available for delivery and pick-up from 5pm to 9pm daily. Plus, there are some Taiwanese beers, wines, and large-format cocktails listed on their online takeout menu." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, arden shore, matt tervooren
"A half-decade after opening, Win Son’s still got it. This Taiwanese American restaurant in south Williamsburg draws a crowd most nights with its unfaithful but delicious renditions of fly’s head, lu rou fan, and zhajiangmian. The team also runs Win Son Bakery, across the street, a small cafe worth a separate trip for breakfast (think: mochi doughnuts with scallion pancake bacon, egg, and cheeses) and dinner (wine with fried chicken and smash burgers)." - Eater Staff
"To introduce some more exciting flavors to your dessert station, look no further than this beloved Taiwanese spot in East Williamsburg. Their sweet potato five-spice, banana cream, and pear crumble pies are $45, or $50 for the gluten-free versions. Order by November 23 for pickup on November 26 or 27." - hannah albertine, carina finn koeppicus, molly fitzpatrick
