Good food but service terrible! – When the near-by Dumpling House was full and people were waiting in line outside the restaurant, we decided to go to Taiwanese Cafe instead. The food was good and similar to Dumpling House, so I wondered how come this place wasn't even full on a Saturday night. But soon we found out WHY! 1st....the waitress was extremely rude. She gave us this face right from the start. When we ordered some sodas, she just dropped the cans on the table...not even to individual person who ordered it! 2nd....a... read more
Cash only. Bring cash! Luckily not that expensive
Get the xiaolongbao. They're delicious soup-filled pork dumplings.
Authentici Chinese food. Delicious stir fries. Try the beef with string peppers
Authentic chinese food – Good restaurants and Chinatown don't go hand in hand. Of all the restaurants I have tried in Chinatown I prefer Taiwan Cafe. It appears reasonably clean, the prices are good, and the food tastes good. When we go we have a native speaker order for us and that probably solves any problems that might arise. It's authentic, cheap, fast and good. Not a date place, just a food place.
Hot and sour soup is the best I've ever had. Soup dumplings (aks mini steamed pork buns) are amazing. Salt &pepper chix and eggplant w/ basil are standout. Careful - soup is more thn enough 4 2ppl

The prices here are not bad at all, though there are some Chinese places with better deals. However, the quality of the food here compensates and it makes for a good place to eat after seeing a show in the Theater District or when you are in town. Great hours too!
Go somewhere else – Ok - this place is definitely in Chinatown. Anyways - the service is terrible. Our waitress misunderstood our order, got it wrong, brought it to the table, and then argued with us for several minutes insisting that we were wrong. After telling us we were wrong she insisted that we take the wrong order anyway and had a terrible attitude. We took the wrong order anyway, an oyster omelette, and it wasn't that good. I ordered a noodle soup with flat noodles and vegetables. The noodles were not that great. I'v... read more
great taiwanese This place is pretty great - packed at lunch time because of the specials, so get there early. It's also cash only, but the food is so cheap that it doesn't really matter. Try the spicy eggplant (or really any of the eggplant dishes!), and you couldn't be happier.
