I was very disappointed with my visit here on the weekend.
The food is really expensive, not to mention the quality of the food wasn't there.
We ordered the Minced pork rice ($11.99), and the Beef noodle soup ($11.99). We also had a side order of Popcorn chicken ($8.99), and we each ordered a drink: Hot Charadise Milk black tea ($4.99) and Iced Royal Matcha Latte ($4.99). Our lunch for 2 costed us $50 total! One thing that really threw me off was the minced pork was sweet! I've never had Taiwanese minced pork that was sweet, it's supposed to be salty. It made me wonder if the chef had accidentally put sugar instead of salt when cooking. The beef noodle soup was ok - decent amount of beef pieces, and the meat was tender but overall it lacked flavor. A lot of noodles, but the soup was bland. One thing I also couldn't get over was why the preserved vegetables were yellow (normally they should be light green, but it was distinctly yellow). The best dish was probably the popcorn chicken but even then it tasted like nothing special. I've definitely had better Taiwanese food uptown. Only thing I would say was good were their drinks. Both drinks were good, but not quite worth $5.
Service was not so great. If they give you a tracker and deliver you food to where you are sitting, why can't they do the same for drinks? After ordering the staff told me to stay here to wait for the drinks. While I was still standing by the counter 2 food trays already came to me while I was still waiting for my drink...
I do have to say though the place is really big. It actually does seem like a cafeteria, and the décor is really nice. The place actually comes off as a good place to study.
