    This restaurant is in a quiet residential neighborhood area in Tainan city. They have the prettiest door ever. Highly recommend making a reservation first as this place can get packed pretty quickly even on weekdays. We spent a while deciding on the menu. The food is variety of Asian-Western fusion. The waiters are extremely friendly and they recommended we get food to share along with cocktails. Apparently cocktails are their specialty here so each of us got one. They also served mocktails as well for people who don’t drink. We waited for around 15 minutes for the food. All the dishes including the salad are very well seasoned and appropriate portion as share plates. The bartender also came to check on us every now and then on the drinks. Overall nice ambiance for quality time with group of friends and needless to say we did not leave sober afterwards haha.

    Best Restaurant I’ve been to in Tainan, hands down. Also, the drinks are AMAZING! This is the first place I’ve been to in Taiwan who knew what a Sidecar drink was and it was one of the top 3 best I’ve ever had in the world. The prices are reasonable, service excellent, food amazing. Just come, but make a reservation - this place has been getting popular!

    Nice restaurant with a cool layout. Food was okay and not overly expensive, but the beef (牛小排) was lackluster with little flavor and the fried squid could have used lemon and/or sauce. Shredded chicken and nut salad was great. Creamy mushroom risotto was okay. Was disappointed with the timing as everything was brought out in quick succession so we couldn't enjoy one dish individually and had to dig into everything at once before it got cold. Also recommended to ask for a proper fork and knife or you will only get a small salad fork to eat your entire meal (no knife provided unless asked). Also note, you are allowed to sit for approx 2 hours if eating without alcohol and unlimited time with booze. The drink menu was extensive with some interesting cocktails and beer selection.

    Good tapas and big portions! Recommend to share food, it is an interesting fusion of asian flavors and european food!! The beef tonge with chimichurri is delicious, the mushroom truffle rissotto is good and huge, and the fried mushrooms with garlic too! The only thing, it would be nice to see more snacks that aren’t fried…

    Have a dinner with our US Managers, and they all like the meals and atmosphere. The clerks service well with detail explaination of Menu and will recommand meals for individual preferences. It's worthy for the business dinner

    Good place for dining and drink. 1st Daiquiri was a bit plain but very surprised that the bartenders came to check and redo one for me👍 definitely back

    Both foods and cortails are nice and tasty! Better than normal bar which may only focus on drinks. This one made u can eat comfortably and full and enjoy a good cortails at the same time! Food portion is big with reasonable price. Cortails is creative and make use of local ingredients like tea, fruit, or even vegetable! A place with comfortable seats n relax with friends! Better to book in advance!
