Best places: Japanese authentic restaurants in Taichung, Taiwan

👍👍 Very clean and respectable establishment with accommodating and attentive staff and chef! Dishes were of a sizeable portion and seafood was incredibly fresh. A perfect dinner to end our last night in Hualien!

👍👍 The boss was so friendly. I have been traveling alone for a month and having someone warmly accept me into his spot was amazing. He drank with me and tried to communicate with me in multiple languages. He obviously had a passion for food because he would continue to offer me free bites of food that...

😠 This was one of the worst Japanese restaurants I have been to in recent times. I expected way better service and food considering that it is a sibling restaurant to the one in changhua but oh boy was I disappointed. Firstly, the service was absolutely horrible. I went there with seven people and ord...

👍👍 Amazing nigiri, friendly service with professional knowledge. Definitely the place we will be revisiting in the future. ❤️

👍👍 It is very suitable for chatting and dining with friends. The overall atmosphere of the space is high-end with a sense of mystery. The conversation will not affect too much with other tables. The background music is quite comfortable. I remember that there will be a light show at 8 o'clock in the ev...

Laid-back Japanese restaurant specializing in eel dishes, plus sushi, sashimi & hot pot.

👍 無菜單680元，紅油天婦羅有特色和飽足感，但有一點膩，放第一道可能不太適合。因為膩，以至於後面的伊比利豬吃起來沒有太大亮點比較可惜。 生魚片很厚實新鮮，握壽司很棒。湯有點鹹，冰淇淋布朗尼有點甜。 空間不大，老闆娘介紹的很仔細👍

👍👍 3/3 revisited: This time I ordered the one-week-aged sashimi flute blowing sea bream (Masaki), grilled horse mackerel, sea bream (Karin) belly Saikyo yaki, grilled local chicken Saikyo yaki, and roasted duck breast with fig jam. Real sea bream belly Saikyo-yaki. The meat of Kaili is always fresh and...

Refined restaurant specializing in Japanese fare & Teppanyaki seafood & meat dishes.

👍👍 High quality sashimi and sushi. Food was beautifully presented. The black cod was delicious and was a generous sized portion. Service was attentive but not overbearing. Nice dark interior and wood aesthetic. On the higher end of the dining budget, but this is expected with most decent Japanese e...

👍👍 Incredible culinary experience with two menu sets. English menu can be asked. Several dishes with unique presentation. They change the course every three months. Very nice kaiseki in Taipei.
