Taiwan Beef Noodles · Chicken Soup

Got here about 10:30 at night, and there was still a queue. Probably waited another 30 minutes before we got seated. During the wait time, you can scroll the menu and mark your order. When we finally got seated the food didn't arrive too long after. The soup was flavoursome, and noodles were chewy. Added more fat and chilli to enhance the flavours. Overall, it was a great bowl of noodles. The side dishes were nice as well.

It’s a very good beef noodle soup. 1) Great sides: pig ear with sea weed, chicken broth soup, etc. 2) The beef noodle broth is great. I prefer it with a thicker broth, more starch. The beef [per friend] said it is the best cut of meat and tendon he has had with his beef noodle soup. 3) The condiments are great: chili, pickled sides, and the beef tallow. Overall, very good. I wouldn’t want to wait an hour (which we did), but the food comes out pretty quick. A good 4 star or a weak 5 star.

This is totally worth the wait when those late-night cravings hit. Whenever I think of Taiwan, this is what comes to mind! Go for the thin noodle option for the perfect mix of carbs and protein, and load it up with as many condiments as you want to make it just right! Very friendly staff wrapped our noodles when we couldn’t finish it because we were overwhelmed of the big portion! Thank you!

Highly referenced taiwanese beef noodle shop when you search youtube for places to eat, so I decided that I like beef noodles enough to come and try. Was warned that there's generally a queue but it moves. I came about 745pm and there was a queue of about 20+ people before me but I think I waited 30 mins and got my seat. The queue system is very well managed and they place chairs outside for you while you're waiting, and there's also plenty of public seating outside the restaurant while you wait. I ordered the beef noodles and added a side of braised tripe and tofu to go along with it. The broth was deep, earthy, herbal and full of umami flavour. The beef pieces that came with it were generally tender except for one piece but that was probably the exception. The beef tripe... if you like beef tripe, you have to order it. It was braised to perfection and the mouth feel was amazing to say the least! I ordered the small portion which was very sufficient for me and you get a choice of skinny noodles or hand cut noodles. I went with the latter and thought I made a good choice. The service staff were prompt and friendly! I really enjoyed my meal here and wish I could come back for their chicken lala soup which is supposed to be well received and reviewed as well!

Best beef noodles I've ever had. Flavorful but not too overpowering. The taste of 红烧 hong shao (braised beef) is fragrant, and the beef is also tender. What's better than the beef noodles here, is the chicken soup! We ordered garlic chicken soup. I'm very picky with chicken but the chicken in the soup is soft and well cooked. Can tell they make an effort to source their chicken. The soup is overall nice with the right amount of flavor and thickness. The chef here handles broth really well.

We arrived just before 6pm. Got a ticket and waited outside. Popular. Waited about 30 minutes to get a table. We ordered 2 bowls of their signature beef noodles, chicken and mushrooms soup, vegetables and tofu. Food is ok. They have a main shop and additional seating area next door

Yummy noodles. We got shaved noodles but I think thin would’ve been better. Their sides were good and paired well with the noodles. The beef was soft and the soup was flavourful but could’ve been a bit better! The chicken clam soup was piping hot and SO good for the cold weather. Service was very very quick and they have a very efficient process with a ticketing and ordering system. It opens until very late, we went at 12:30am and there was still a 20 minute wait until we got a table.

Dear Taiwan Beef Noodles · Chicken Soup, I don’t know how to say this, but… You ruined me. When we first met, it was late, 9PM. The city was buzzing, and I was just looking for something casual, something comforting. I had heard about you through a mutual friend, Lucas Sin from Bon Appétit who casually mentioned you in a video. He never said your name directly, of course. You’re mysterious like that. Your name was literally just… what you serve. And I thought, how good could something with a Google Maps listing that literal be? But then I found you. And everything changed. I waited for you—15 minutes. And I would’ve waited longer. I would’ve waited forever, honestly. Because the moment we were together, and I tasted that broth… something deep inside me shifted. I’ve had beef noodle soup before. But you? You were something else. You were The One. You made me feel things I didn’t know soup could make me feel. The Three Treasure combo: tendon, shin, tripe was a love letter to my soul. The intense broth, bold and bright, with tomato tang, bean paste umami, and sweet onion whispers; each sip felt like you were saying, I know you. I see you. You deserve better. The thin alkaline noodles, perfectly firm, lovingly prepared in that constantly refreshed water— you cared about me. You wanted me to be happy. I was happy. But now I can’t go back. Other beef noodle soups mean nothing to me. I sit across from them, smiling politely, thinking of you. You made me question everything I thought I knew about broth. You made me believe. And now I’m just… lost. I tried to move on. I ordered the house dry noodles with spicy ground pork—they were fine. But it was like kissing someone who isn’t you. No spark. No soul. I even flirted with the side of sausage, fatty and cold, served with sliced garlic that tried its best to cut through the richness. But I couldn’t stop thinking, Why am I wasting my time on sides when I had everything I ever needed in that bowl? You were it for me. You are it for me. So I’m coming back. I booked a flight. Next year. Same city. Same table, if it’s still there. I’ll check the box again on that laminated menu. Intense broth. Firm noodles. Everything. Just like last time. Just like always. Until then, I’ll dream of you. Yours in heartbreak and soy sauce, 💔 A hopeless, noodle-obsessed fool who thought he was just getting dinner, but found religion instead
