Tutto Bello

Chef is still passionate and meticulous in quality of ingredients and also execution. Every dish is prepared to perfection. Wine serving is world class. Even desserts are perfectly executed.

Disappointing experience at Tuto Bello. Service was incredibly slow and staff came off as arrogant rather than attentive. The head chef seemed more interested in appearances than actually running the kitchen—maybe focus less on strutting around and more on getting food out on time? Prices are unjustifiably high for what’s essentially a glorified pasta bar. It’s really stretching to call this place Italian—just putting pasta on the menu doesn’t make it authentic. Not worth the hype, not worth the wait, and definitely not worth the price. I don’t recommend

The best of the day- blood pigeon, full of flavours and very very tender. The sauce, the proportion..everything on the plate is just perfect. Lobster was good too but I didnt understand and enjoy that much about the curry sauce and spinach. The service was relatively disappointed.. The waiters didn’t explain all dishes in details, didn’t let us taste the wine we ordered, did something wrong on the receipt and I had to go to them because none of them noticed that I was waving my hand..

I made a reservation by phone for the following evening and received a confirmation SMS — but it was entirely in Mandarin. As an English-speaking guest, this already felt unprofessional and not customer-friendly. The SMS did not clearly state that a credit card was required to confirm the reservation, and the staff member on the phone also failed to mention this. Naturally, I assumed it was simply a confirmation message. Because I did not provide credit card details for a “deposit” that I was never informed about, the reservation was silently cancelled — without any notification. When we arrived at the restaurant, the staff (who could barely speak English, which is disappointing for a restaurant that presents itself as high-end and internationally oriented) informed us that our table was gone. Even more frustrating: although almost every table was empty, we were told that they could not seat us — not even for a short 30-minute stay. This experience was embarrassing and frustrating, and it gives the impression that non-Mandarin-speaking guests are simply not welcome or considered. It is especially disappointing that American Express is associated with a restaurant that treats international customers this way. If you do not speak or read Mandarin, I would strongly advise you to avoid this

A favorite for our family, my dad loves this place and brings me every time I visit him in Taipei. Their unique interpretations of Italian dishes create an amazing symphony of flavor & taste; I’ve never had anything here that I haven’t loved. I highly recommend this place as it is quite special & in a foodie capital like Taiwan, it is one of a kind! Definitely get a reservation and it’s a perfect place for a date to impress.

For me, the top 5 restaurants I’ve ever tried in my life without a doubt. After spend 6 years live in London, my idea on this restaurant becomes more stronger and stable. I have tried several Michelin restaurants around the world, from one star to three stars, for me Tutto Bello absolutely have the overall quality of two stars or even three stars, however compared with some three stars restaurants, it is not that conservative. They are excellent on adding new elements to some iconic and classical dishes, finest ingredients, spectacular cooking techniques and the love to customers is the Trinity is of a restaurant, lucky Tutto Bello has these three key points. Perfect food, perfect services and perfect wine experience make Tutto Bello a perfect restaurant.

It was my favorite Italian restaurant in Taipei some 20 years ago. I haven't visited it for 20 years. To my surprise it's still open for business. Very good business. Unbelievable. The chef Mr Mui still runs the kitchen. The waiters and waitresses are still professional in waiting on table. Every dish is prepared by heart. The choices still beat my imagination. I tried to give them hard time with my orders. They can manage to meet my ridiculous demands. Bravos.

Came here for a birthday celebration date, they did not disappoint us. Very nice hospitality and got a great ambience. Pasta dishes was exceptional and beyond our expectations, however with the price that came with it we expected to be larger portions. Phenomenal lobster sauce. We both order a dessert but since we were here to celebrate birthday, they also served the chocolate surprise, which brought a nice performance. Tasted as good as it looked! However the charge was apply to our bill.

Food was delicious but over priced. had the salad, fillet, and white mouses.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. How does this place has 4.5 stars? I'm guessing they switched chefs? Also this is not "real Italian" coming from someone who has visited Italy. For the price, the food does not perform well. My family ordered the prix fixe menu (6 courses) and we were all disappointed as only 2 dishes stood out amongst the 6. The 1st course was a salad with scrambled egg topped with truffle and a slice of ginger. It was ok but I felt that if I had truffle in my kitchen, I can easily recreate the dish. My 2nd course was supposed to be scallops - but the restaurant said they ran out and had to substitute it with shrimp scampi. We were the 1st people there as 6PM was their first seating. This restaurant was obviously not prepared to serve what was stated on their menu. Have you ever watched documentaries on exemplary restaurants? Check out Chef's Table if you haven't. This would not have happened at a restaurant that is high quality. Also this dish was meh. Nothing special. 3rd course was a beef soup. Tasted regular and I could've gotten this at a night market. 4th course was pasta with truffle. This dish I liked, but besides the truffle, nothing else stood out. 5th course was the wagyu beef which I really liked. It melted it my mouth like butter. 6th course was a cheese plate. MEH. If you are a high quality restaurant, you should offer cheese I've never tasted. I've had each one of those - blue cheese, parmesan, cheddar, etc. They asked if I wanted coffee or tea..I asked for decaf coffee to which they came out 10 min later telling me they "ran out". How can a high quality restaurant NOT have decaf coffee. If you don't have this option, do not offer it to your patrons. Overall, I WOULD NOT recommend anyone come here. My family was disappointed with the amount of time and money spent. in addition, it is obvious the wait staff have not had formal training in serving a high ambiance restaurant. This restaurant would never ever achieve even 1 Michelin star. I just looked up the chef and googled him - no info to be found about him.

Best Italian dinner I had in years. As an European I often went to Italy for business and around Taipei it is pretty rare to find quality Italian food. Warm people, did not see the Chef but the Manager is all ears. Wine choice is up to any palate. (PS) Ask for the prosciutto dish for appetizer with a glass of Martini or Campari...

4/26/16 dinner. Taipei's hidden treasure, tuck away behind the imperial hotel. If tutto bello was in a Michelin city, I'm not sure too many restaurant could serve better food. The chef does his thing without ever letting the diner forget that he serves great product. 20+ years of amazing food. The duck confit on capellini was too die for.

A great place for real Italian, one of the reasons why Taipei is consistently ranked as a foodie destination (its ability to attract and retain chefs from around the world who decide to settle down here). Chef's menu is always interesting, and always a pleasant experience.

A long time safe bet in town, consistent Continental cuisine, cozy nouveau bistro surroundings & wine-friendly staff. A solid 4-stars IMHO.

The restaurant was very expensive (even by American standards and pretentious. The service was slow. The food was mediocre. The oxtail was measly. The mashed potato tasted like it is from the box. There is no warm and fussiness from the waiters.
