ZEA

Every course, from the first to the last, was a delightful surprise, incredibly delicious with delicate and complex flavors. The wine pairings were also exceptional; the first glass of sake was truly amazing. The staff provided detailed explanations of the dishes and were very friendly. Overall, this is a restaurant I would definitely want to visit again.

Amazing Latin cuisine with ingredients that are sourced from many Taiwanese cities. We couldn’t pick a favorite because everything was so good. Truly one of the most unique dining experiences you can have in Taipei. Even if you’re just traveling to Taipei for a short trip we’d recommend it because you won’t find this kind of fusion anywhere else.

January 2025 Our dining experience here was absolutely delightful! Every course was delicious and inventive. It was clear that exceptional service was a priority here - from the attention to detail, the little personalized note in the end and the gift bag, they went above and beyond to make sure we had a great dining experience. I had mentioned in my reservation that I was allergic to shellfish and still hoped to dine at the restaurant, even though they typically don’t accommodate food allergies. I was happy to skip any courses if necessary. They offered to remove the allergen from one of my courses. To my surprise, although they couldn’t modify one other course, they offered me a complimentary drink pairing course in its place. It was an incredibly thoughtful and unexpected gesture—and I was absolutely thrilled.

Excellent wine pairing and Latino cusine. The bar seating with good vibes between kitchen and customers. We had a good time for our anniversary. Thanks Zea!

My friend and I went to Zea for the first time last Thursday and LOVED the experience! We both lived in different Latin American countries and were looking forward to Chef Joaquín’s mix of Latin dishes. It did not disappoint! We loved every dish; each was creative and artistically presented, but most importantly, they were delicious! My favorites were the nicuatole (corn, coconut, cassava), the caesar (red seabream), the empanada, and the avestruz (ostrich). I would have never thought of eating ostrich in Taiwan! It was served medium rare and was tender and flavorful. My friend and I ordered the 7 glasses wine pairing and enjoyed the conversations we had with Danny, the Sommelier. We especially enjoyed Malagousia (from Greece), Vinos del Mar (from Uruguay), and the sake from Japan. The highlight of the evening was meeting Chef Joaquín. He brought some of the dishes to us and described in Spanish the ingredients in his creation. At the end of the meal, we had the opportunity to continue speaking with him in Spanish and learn more about his creative journey. The take home alfajor was one of the best I’ve ever had – they melt in your mouth! Next time I’m in Taipei, I will definitely come back again!

We came here for a birthday dinner and it sure did not disappoint. From entry to sit down and every dish being so unique, innovative, balanced.

The chef is from Argentina and you can tell that he definitely spends a lot of time and energy into making every single dish Each dish was absolutely divine and well paired The shrimp appetizer was the best Seafood so fresh and paired well with the sauce That was our favorite dish This restaurant is representative of Latin American food So you can really taste the combination of different Spanish-speaking country foods from each dish We paired it with the wine pairing, and it was very cool to see all that different wines different countries There were three desserts in the end Each one unique The chef also came by to chat with us Overall, a very amazing experience Will strongly recommend coming here Very reasonable set menu price as well The only one downside is that because the restaurant utilizes mostly hard surface for interior design, voice bounces off and is can be quiet loud when the restaurant is full It can be a bit difficult to hear people next to you

Liked the open kitchen, can see the choreography of the brigade. Incredible crescendo of flavours. The chocolate dessert was a bomb. Very nice wine pairing too, first time I did really like South American wines. Attentive service.
