"That the owner is also an antique dealer explains the abundance of exquisite pieces dotting the room. The terrazzo and reclaimed wood flooring also echo with the overall vintage feel. The young chef creates only one fixed price menu based on European traditions, but heavily influenced by South Asian and Tibetian cultures. The intimate ambiance makes it perfect for date nights or casual get-togethers." - Michelin Inspector

Great French style restaurant utilizing traditional Chinese flavors. Really enjoyed our lunch here. They were also very accommodating for English speakers. The duck was the highlight of the meal for me! I would also highly recommend the wine pairing.

The dining atmosphere is fantastic, and the sommelier is friendly and engaging. The main courses are perfectly cooked, with rich and flavorful sauces. A great restaurant for gatherings with friends or a romantic date.

After dining at over 30 Michelin-starred restaurants around the world, this is the only one I believe is truly worth the price. I'm not exaggerating at all. Most fine dining establishments in Taiwan are overpriced. By using Taiwanese local ingredients and applying fine dining cooking techniques, this restaurant has managed to truly capture the essence of Taiwanese cuisine. I was pleasantly surprised by just how delicious the food was, and the excellent service. You really have to try it for yourself to fully appreciate it. I sincerely hope I can visit again soon. I'm really looking forward to seeing what they have on their summer menu.

Delicious and all round a great time. Didn’t realize we’d been there more than 2 hours. Staff was really great. Chef Steve was gracious to come out and talk to his guests after dinner.

The chef personalizes the menu, expressing elements of his life experiences and even his spouse's Tibetan heritage. The result is a daring and innovative entourage of both traditional Western and Chinese fusion dishes. The bakery-pastries-cold dishes are mediocre but his handling of meats, dishes and desserts are excellent and creative. Very friendly staff. Strange location but the quasi outdoor setting makes for a pleasant night when it's not too warm

Great restaurant. The chef worked at some of Melbourne’s fine dining restaurants (Attica) and are friends amongst other chefs that have worked there and moved on to open their own restaurants. The wait staff are attentive and friendly, while not being intrusive. Food is fantastic and had a great balance of flavor. This is a wholistic experience which makes you want to go back. Congrats to the chef for creating true masterpieces. Hopefully we could catch up in Melbourne some time, and thank you for taking the time to chat to us after! Truly a brilliant experience for fine dining.

Altogether really quite nice. There is a real effort to create an atmosphere and experience and it really shows. Particularly the stamped card is a nice touch. Special mention to the non-alcoholic pairing, which I found quite inventive. Total bill was around 500ntd.

I booked a table before but it got canceled on that day by the restaurant due to bad weather (some sorta influence on restaurant environment). I didn’t expect them to remember, but they did and also offered me a free meal and a bottle of free wine. I’ve gotta say it’s really sweet and generous. The food was like bistro average level but we did enjoy having a nice atmosphere here.

This peculiar restaurant hidden in the quiet alleys near Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall is a secret hideout that looks like a scene out of the movie Perfume. Might not be the place for everyone to appreciate. But if you're into antiques, hipster atmospheres, this is the place to be. Menu items are not exactly cheap, but it's worth the experience when you taste the No.57 Gnocchi, spicy calamari with quinoa, duck breast pasta... Just simply out of this world.

A hidden place in the city! Very nice chill vibe with great decor! I would def bring my friends here for its atmosphere. However the food menu are quite limited and some of the portion were really small. Most dishes tasted pretty good and unique.

Mixing the now trendy 'Rough Interior' style with Provencal accent, the decor & surrounding alone merits a visit. The entrees are quite creative but needs some more finesse. An interesting place for a light meal.

Wonderful atmosphere, they've created a nice space that takes you away from the city in a quiet neighbourhood. The mains that we had was out of the ordinary but delicious. There is a NT500 cover charge for dinner to keep in mind.

The interior design and the atmosphere are great. However, the desserts and drinks are not so good, what's more, it is too pricey!!!!

The place was quiet and charming with old / vintage decro. The outdoor sitting in the yard was relaxing. Great for groups. Food is creative and delicious. Kinda pricy coz the small portion.

Nice place However the food is not recommend. We ordered spaghetti but not fully cooked We asked for a replacement but the waitress advised the chef insisted that is the texture of spaghetti which will be the same even re-cook. Sorry, I am not the first day to eat spaghetti We eat spaghetti all the time n can tell what has been fully cooked or not. This is really unacceptable. Chef is too much pride of his food which I will never spend a dime for food like this ever!
