Taipei Gourmet

I’m not from Taiwan or the region, so I’ll leave the remarks about authenticity to others. I did stumble on a Taiwanese restaurant during a trip to China, and had an eggplant dish that I’m still thinking about five years later. So I thought I’d give this place a try. I was just about the only non-Asian diner—on a Saturday, the place was full of families. They were kind to find a spot for a solo diner.I ordered the Taipei beef noodle soup, which is spicy but not in a sharp jalapeño way, more of a dark warm heat. I also had the eggplant in garlic sauce, which resembled that dish I had years ago, though it was sweet (actually as if sugar was added) and what I had before was a bit dryer, and had just a bit more of a roasted flavor. This was a lot of food, but it all was so good that I almost didn’t have any leftovers. I’ll definitely be back.

It is very Authentic Chinese food , is tasty so yummy and beautiful,I will coming back next time , thank you so much!

What a meal! We got szechuan fish filet with pickle, so hot and flavorful. Perfect on a winter day. The pea pod shoots were fresh, shrimp w veggies was good, and the orange chicken was surprisingly not too sweet! Further, several dishes were made without salt for one of us who can't have salt. Will be back.

Don’t be fooled by the name, it’s actually one of the best Sichuan restaurants in Boston.

Good, authentic Taiwanese food. We had the salt-and-pepper fried squid, the pig intestine hot pot with noodles, and the Chinese squash. The squid was nicely cut and fried -- but strangely not very salty, and there was no dish of salt and pepper on the side, as at many restaurants. The pig intestine didn't have a lot of pieces of intestine, but was good, and had some nice greens and peanuts -- it is spicy, but you can order it less spicy. The Chinese squash was bland, but that's the way it's supposed to be. Most of the customers were Chinese. I will return! As others have said, be sure to park to the LEFT of the restaurant. They can be very busy sometimes, so call ahead. The room is simple and clean.
