Wow, 4.9 stars and 1000+ reviews. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the offer of tequila shots and extra oysters for a 5-star review. But get past the agave liquor and shellfish and this establishment has got some issues. Where to start? How about the menu... a clipboard with laminated cards showing interesting food and drink specials. Nice dive-y aesthetic and aligned with the overall trendy gritty feel (which was generally well-done, btw). But our first drink choice... is not available. Nor the second. Now, if this was a normal menu, one might expect them to add a sticker or use a Sharpie or whiteout for a correction with authentic homespun feel. But the menu is cards. Each drink is a card. If the drink is not available, you can... wait for it... remove the card! Wowie! But where's the fun in that... better to tease patrons, right? Now for the food... fairly good, actually... some more exciting, some less, but good attempts all around. Thousand-year egg dip with spicy Doritos was fun. Yet when we asked a question about the marinated cheese dish... like, if it's cow cheese or sheep cheese, the answer was... "cheese". And when we asked about the flavor of the aforementioned marinate, the answer was... wait for it.... "cheese". (Just to clarify, all communications were in natively-spoken Chinese, and certainly not by your humble scribe.) But hey, this is ok, maybe 4 stars at this point with some credit for effort. And the wait staff was probably too busy looking attractive (they are, for sure) so that understandably took some cycles too. But the real kicker was the face masks. You know, COVID masks. Because nobody really wants to get sick or, like, DIE. Except none were worn by the staff. There were two staff members in the beginning, later joined by what seemed to be the owner/boss couple, yet for those 4 aesthetically pleasing faces, nary a mask. Not just when they were in the kitchen area (about 1.5 meters from the tables), but when serving, when cleaning, when coming in from outdoors, when blowing their nose (ok, that's not fair, but the point is... someone had a runny nose, and I'm sure their ah-ma would tell them to wear a mask, plus don't drink ice water of course). Remember this is Taipei, Taiwan, where we actually care about these things and science and democracy and gay marriage and not getting blown up by China. If I had wanted an authentic American restaurant experience, I would have brought my AR-15 and tipped 15% while asking for refills on my ice water and complaining about the high price of gas (side note: still among the lowest in the world, but don't tell them). That being said, Ms. Boss was kind enough to cover her face with her hand when talking about 40 cm away from us... I guess the gesture was nice. But you know what would have been nicer? 3-ply medical-grade face masks, that's what! This being Taiwan, you can get them pretty much anywhere, anytime. Food Panda or Uber Eats will even deliver them, tout de suite. So to summarize - reasonably interesting food, good drinks if you assume the menu is partially just to tease. But either the staff is borderline intentionally trying to get their patrons sick, or they are part of some secret A/B test that the CDC is doing to prove masks are not necessary in restaurants. Just don't tell the Taipei mayor, whose personal motto is "I always eat alone (even before COVID)."

Good vibes, cold beer, nice staff and good bbq. I’ll go back.

Very crowded place. All you can drink draws crowds.

Very good beer and trendy atmosphere

Very cozy and chill spot to come with friends! Will come back again!

had a great time, great value for money, atmosphere was amazing with super nice waiters. I pretty much enjoyed their water spinach and 玉子燒. Definitely recommend it if you’re an izakaya person who happens to be in town.

One of the best bars in Taipei! These are the all you can drink cocktails I had ordered this time! To be honest, they’re high quality in terms of all you can drink menu! Definitely will come here again with my friends!

Very very chill and fun bar! Their specialty cocktail are very good! They have a 1000NT all you can drink special. Very fun and friendly people! They only take cash!! 調酒師很帥 😄

First time try out this izakaya, from outside not easy to find, look pretty secretly vibe, as long as I opened the door, feel like I came back to izakaya in Tokyo, the vibe and the style the owner create, I guess most people would like it, spicy garlic thousand years eggs sauce with nachos is a gem for those would take this special eggs locally made in Taiwan, also ordered No 9 cocktail, lovely drink for girls. Ordered grilled beef rib with garlic, onion garnish, squeesh of the lime, nice one with their not only variety cocktails, but also white, red and bubbles. Staff are very attentive. Price tag for the food is good, affordable not go over the top. There is a dart board to hangout with friends here together. Would definitely invite my friends to come here again!

First time to here affordable price , good service , good cocktails and delicious food. Nice place to chilling out with friends and family. What I like the most about this restaurant is all you can drink package for the drink
