Maxi's Noodle

The Best Restaurants For Dining Solo

"Maxi’s is a teeny 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 egg noodles made in-house, with optional toppings like beef gravy and fish balls. But the non-negotiable adds 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.
