"Nestled in the Dadaocheng area, this family business is now run by the third-generation owners. It opens at 7am for traditional Taiwanese breakfast – egg or rice noodles served in a flavoursome stock made with pork bones, offal and chicken, or dressed in a sweet sauce. Side dishes like pork offal, boiled chicken and blanched squid are also worth trying, but their signature crispy skin braised pork is only available after 10am." - Michelin Inspector

Staffs were welcoming even though the shop was crowded and I came in a group of 5. Dry Noodles were well cooked. Vermicelli in soup is a great comfort food. I wished the crispy pork was crispier. Squid was well cooked, not rubbery at all! The meat goes will with their sweet and sour sauces. The staff took initiative to exclude the spicy sauces to my children noodles, in case they can't take the heat.

Waited for 5 minutes in line on a friday around noon. Not bad at all. Staff was super quick with seating and serving me. The place has a bit of a classic old-fashioned run down vibe, which makes it clear it’s all about the food here. I ordered their signature braised pork and some noodles. The pork definitely deserves all the praise! (praised pork.. ha ha) I was surprised by how cheap it was. In total I only paid 70 ntd!

Came across the shop while strolling in Dihua Street. Quite a queue. Located opposite of school. Nice boss explaining to us The dry noodle, chicken and pork were quite good. The pig kidney was served cold.

A must-visit for traditional Taiwanese wheat noodles lovers! The noodles have a great chewy texture, and the broth is light yet packed with deep umami flavors. The fried pork belly is solid and tasty definitely their best dish. White chicken meat is tender and taste good. Their braised dishes (滷味) are also fantastic—especially the braised tofu and pork intestines, which pair perfectly with the noodles. The shop has an old-school, nostalgic feel, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality. It can get quite busy during meal hours, but service is quick and efficient. If you’re in Taipei and craving a simple yet incredibly satisfying bowl of noodles, 買麵炎仔 is a must-try!

Went early in the morning and there was already a long queue outside. I would highly recommend the noodles with soup as the broth is truly outstanding: light, tasty, complex. Other dishes tasted alright but they are pretty "exotic". Service was outstanding and they seemed quite patient with English-speaking customers but do your homework and check their ordering sheet with translation to avoid gastronomical surprises which are not to your palate.

Was just passing by and saw a long line outside, so I figured, “This must be good!” and decided to check it out. The place is pretty small, very local-style. Staff were super nice and welcoming — definitely a big plus. Food was tasty, came out quick, and overall was solid. But maybe because I had high expectations from the crowd, it didn’t really wow me. Some dishes were good, but nothing that made me go “I need to come back ASAP.” If you're nearby and curious, it's worth a try. Just don't expect something mind-blowing based on the line alone.

This place was thankfully not crowded on a thursday morning when I came The noodles and meat were fantastic, definitely worthy of the michelin bib gourmand title Noodles were done with the best chewiness not over or undercooked, just right. Was a bit apprehensive about the sauce on the noodles at first, but mixed in it was just the perfect amount with tangy spicy and flavour to match with the meat, which itself was full of flavour - wasnt sure which was supposed to complement which both seemed good to eat on their own! Staff was also very nice noticed I was a tourist and helped me find a seat Definitely a must try in Taipei

The crispy pork is very very recommended! Love the taste, and the tenderness of the meat! Just perfecto! The shark meat tasted surprisingly good too and goes very well with the sauce. Other dishes were ok, but the mentioned 2 would be the reason I will come back to this shop!
