    Had beef noodles and bubble tea. Taste really legit!! Beef noodle could be one of the most bothering Taiwanese dish to make since a good soup requires fresh ingredients and a lot of time. The soup here is amazing and the beef is so tender!! It made me think of my grandma:) 小彤姐also was super friendly, had a great time here!!

    The place has two floors, there have many tables in the upstairs, so don't worry if you see the ground floor is full. The owner is from Taiwan, so she really makes the flavor like in Taiwan. The staff was really friendly and helpful. We ordered two menu with drinks and something else, there were Taiwanese beef noodle soup, Taiwanese braised beef with rice, wonton soup, Taiwanese fried chicken and Strawberry Chiffon Cake with Cream. Everything was really delicious and great amount for the price. The Taiwanese restaurant you should definitely visit when you are in Lyon.

    Authentic Taiwanese food!! Service is Taiwanese style! The young french staff speaks fluent and better mandarin than me! I am not the fan of the mochi, but everything else is awesome!

    SEEING IS BELIEVING! It’s on my wishlist before I finish my trip this time. I’m glad I made it after a long business trip. The two starters were great reminders of my hometown taste while the main courses fulfilled my desire to the upmost. Hot soup in cold weather is simply salvation!! The hostess is one of my favorite YouTubers and it’s a pleasure to see her in person, who is natural and a nice person to talk to, and would love to come back again!

    Authentic homemade Taiwanese food. I had the minced pork over rice today and was the best I ever had in a restaurant. Will return to try the beef noodle soup which looks delicious as well.

    The bowls are fantastic, I got the teriyaki salmon bowl and it was delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the whole dish felt very healthy and refreshing. I also had the brown sugar bubble tea and it was great, just like I'm used to and it was a refreshing reminder of home. We also got the tofu bowl and it was was also delicious. The vegie gyoza starter was also also excellent. We wanted to go again before our train to leave Lyon on bastille day but were unfortunately unable to. We'll definitely be back if we're ever in Lyon again.

    Absolutely amazing beef noodles and popcorn chicken. I really missed authentic Taiwanese food and this place was perfect. The multi lingual owner and daughter were also super nice. Your friends from Canada.

    Excellent restaurant. The owner is so friendly. Every dishes we ordered were just excellent. Dishes looked too delicious. I was not even able to bear a moment to take a picture but directly started eating. Pork knuckle rice, popcorn chicken,… were all authentic Taiwanese taste and so good. This place makes me feel like I were back in Taiwan. Will definitely go back.

    I order dandan mien, it’s reallyyyy good, definitely the flavor I tried in Taiwan. As for Taiwanese fried chicken is so so for me. My friend order nieu Lou mien as well, the soup of it is really good, the main reason of it is because they also put Shang chai inside, made me flight back to Taiwan again. No matter for Taiwanese student or the one wanna tried Taiwanese food, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Student from Taiwan

    I just visited BEN's Bowl and was thoroughly impressed by the delicious flavors of their beef noodle soup and wonton soup. The meal reminded me of my time in Taiwan and left me craving for more. As a dessert, the strawberry chiffon cake was truly remarkable.

    Excellent Food! So far the best fried popcorn chicken I have ever tasted. So tender so juicy and good! We also tried Tempura Legume and Ravioli ou Poulet, it was decadent as well! It’s absolutely worth giving a try to this restaurant.

    This place makes you feel like you’re back in Taiwan! The food is awesome and the owner is also very friendly. The beef noodle taste just like the ones from Taiwan and the dessert (mango tiramisu, black sesame) was not too sweat and was just right. After a long European trip, this is the place you need to go if you crave Taiwanese food. Highly recommend this place if you want an authentic home-made dish.

👍 Nice experience in this new restaurant. Gentle staff, there is a nice feeling. I recommend the salads which are super tasty and creative. Could not experience the fresh juice as the restaurant seems to have some teething problems but I will come back in a few weeks to try more.
