Pork chop over rice and the pig intestine!
Maybe I ordered the wrong thing? – My friend and I wandered in, looking for a light dinner. Except Chinese meals don't really work that way - you gotta order a ton. And a good deal we did - seafood congee, a noodle and beef dish, and a app of spicy beef tendon. The tendon was thinly sliced and tasty, but we request some extra spice for more of a kick. The seafood porridge didn't have the kind of thick, glutinous quality, and could have used some extra seasoning. But it was huge, filling, and comforting, at least. Finally, th... read more
Ask for a Chinese menu; if you do not read Chinese make a random pick based on the characters that look cool; most likely going to be better than the americanized selection
Ordered the Tilapia lunch special for $7 and got a whole fish!
Eat the beef with longhorn pepper.
Phenomenal Authentic Food at an Excellent Price – This is a no-frills dining experience that focuses on the food. The food is very authentic, very fresh, great portions. The menu is big and exciting! You cannot beat the price at this restaurant, either, which makes everything an amazing value. Great place for lunch with friends during work. Service and kitchen are fast.You can get in, eat a great meal, and get out in reasonable time. Although the place really looks like a hole in the wall and there is nothing average about t... read more
The Very Best – I think Taiwan Cafe is a great find. Generous portions, friendly service, fabulous food! I find myself going again and again. Their "Spicy Beef" is my favorite dish. And the wonton soup is amazingly good. Taiwan cafe is by far my favorite Chinese restaurant in Chinatown.
good stuff – it's the only taiwanese restaurant i find that offers quality cheap eats (i.e. wisteria on newbury doesn't make the cut), and it's close to work, so what more can i ask? service fluctuates and is greatly dependent on individual wait person, but usually it's... "tolerable". the place can get very busy during weekday lunch and weekend brunch hours, so go early or at other times. my fav dishes (english names are guesstimates as i go by their chinese names). rice dish: pork chop (must try!), beef w/tomato sauce, fri... read more
The most authentic Chinese restaurant I've been to in Boston – When I first discovered Taiwan Cafe in Chinatown, I went back to the restaurant 3 times in 2 weeks. It is hands down the most authentic Chinese restaurant I've been to in Boston and really reminds me of Mom's home cooking. The dishes come out piping hot within minutes of your order, and I have yet to try anything that I didn't like. If I had to pick, I would recommend the mini steamed buns w/ pork (xiao long tang bao), the spicy salt & pepper soft shell crab, the... read more
