The Top 100 Places to Eat Near Geng Ye Yue Mei



  1. Rank 3. Bebu

    Hakkanese





  2. Rank 7. Hung Chin

    Hakkanese




  3. Birchwood panels and a counter that seats just a handful of guests frame the omakase sushi experience here, where the chef works through Edomae technique with a creative edge. Fish comes mostly from Tokyo's Toyosu Market, with fresh catches from Taiwan's northeastern coast filling in the rest. The kohada, balanced between chew, acidity, and sweet rice, makes a quiet case for the Michelin star on its own.

  20. Rank 54. Wan Wan

    Taiwanese


  21. Rank 55. Abba Hakka

    Hakkanese



  22. Rank 57. Circum-

    Chinese

    The name comes from the Latin for "around," a nod to how Chinese food travels and changes as it crosses borders. This fine dining room in the Regent Hotel follows that migration, tracing emigrant foodways through history and reassembling them with French technique. The dishes land somewhere between a childhood memory and a chef's thesis, which sounds more cerebral than it eats. It holds a Michelin star.


  23. Perched on a mountainside nearly 500 meters up, this Zen-inspired Japanese restaurant frames lush hills by day and city lights by night through its immaculate gardens. Inside, a 10-course omakase built on kaiseki traditions unfolds with tea rituals woven between dishes, and the team narrates each course with enough context that it feels like a seminar you didn't want to skip. The kind of meal that earns its altitude.



  24. Rank 60. Na Ka Seafood

    Seafood Taiwanese


  25. Rank 61. Le Palais

    Cantonese


  26. A fine dining restaurant in Taichung where the chef grew up eating at his father's hawker stall in Singapore and never quite got over it. Three Michelin stars and a spot on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants, yet the animating idea is street food: childhood flavors pulled into a tasting menu format without being dismantled just to prove a point. The kaya toast dessert, served inside a frozen coconut shell, is the kind of thing that makes you stop mid-bite.



  27. Cantonese fine dining on the third floor of the Regent Taipei, with a Michelin star and a spot on Asia's 50 Best list. The chef came up through Hong Kong's Lei Garden and built a career across the region, arriving here with a deep command of the classical repertoire. Roasted meats, double-boiled soups, wok-fried dishes, and dim sum all get the full treatment, with Taiwan's own produce quietly threaded through.



  28. Rank 66. Eika

    Contemporary Japanese


  29. Rank 67. NOBUO

    Japanese

    A Japanese façade gives way to a Scandinavian-spare interior where the room itself signals what's coming: nothing extraneous. This two-Michelin-star tasting counter builds a single menu around seafood and seasonal local vegetables, with modern technique used to pull flavors forward rather than show off. The team walks you through each dish, which sounds fussy until it genuinely helps. Clean, quiet, and layered in ways that take a moment to catch up with you.



  30. Rank 69. Jhen Pin

    Taiwanese


  31. Rank 70. Shou Wu

    Hakkanese



  32. Rank 72. Mudan

    Tempura Japanese


  33. Rank 73. A

    Contemporary French

    White walls, flower arrangements, and tasting menus that read like gallery notes: this two-Michelin-starred contemporary French restaurant inside a Taipei department store commits fully to the art-world vibe. The chef builds on classic French sauces with quiet Asian inflections, and the plating is the kind that makes people reach for their phones before their forks. A mushroom cappuccino course has its own name, which tells you something about the level of seriousness on offer.


  34. Rank 74. JIA YEN

    Zhejiang


  35. Rank 75. Molino de Urdániz

    Contemporary Spanish

    A stone wall and a wine cellar anchor the room at this two-Michelin-starred tasting menu restaurant inside Hotel MVSA, where a Spanish kitchen transplanted to Taipei works through seafood with modern technique and a painter's sense of color. The cooking takes its cues from Spanish landscapes, and the plating looks like it. Dress well and clear your evening.



  36. Rank 77. Hai Shan

    Taiwanese

    Queues form early and don't thin out much at this Banqiao spot, a no-frills Taiwanese small-eats counter with nostalgic decor that reads less "curated" and more "has always looked this way." Braised pork rice and a clear spareribs-and-wax-gourd soup are the draws, the kind of quietly satisfying classics regulars order without glancing at the menu. Set menus let you mix and match sides, which keeps things moving at a pace the line outside will appreciate.


  37. Rank 78. Taïrroir

    Contemporary Taiwanese

    A copper-ceiling meant to suggest Taiwan's hill country sets the tone before you've seen the menu, which at Taïrroir names its dishes to rhyme with local idioms. The chef spent two decades across Taiwanese and French kitchens, and the tasting menu puts those two traditions in genuine conversation, built around seasonal Taiwanese produce. It holds three Michelin stars, and the service matches that without feeling starched.



  38. Tucked into a Neihu alleyway, this two-Michelin-star contemporary Asian restaurant draws a straight line between Taipei and Tokyo: chef Ryogo Tahara trained under Hiroyasu Kawate at Florilège before bringing that same exacting sensibility here. The menu leans into Taiwanese ingredients while pulling techniques from across the continent, landing at No. 22 on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants. Dishes arrive with the quiet confidence of people who have nothing left to prove.



  39. Rank 82. Mizue

    Japanese





  40. Rank 86. Sushi Kajin

    Edomae Sushi


  41. Solid wood countertops imported from Canada anchor a room that reads as quietly, deliberately Japanese. This is an omakase-only sushi counter, the kind where the chef controls the entire arc of the meal. Fish comes in from Japan three times a week, and the rice is seasoned with three different vinegars, which sounds fussy until you taste it. The place holds a Michelin star.


  42. Rank 88. Ming Fu

    Taiwanese

    Home-style Taiwanese cooking served in the kind of generous portions that assume you brought people. Ming Fu holds a Michelin star, which surprises no one who has had the stuffed chicken, a whole free-range bird filled with glutinous rice, red dates, and goji berries, then simmered for the better part of a day into a golden, deeply umami broth. The menu also reaches for ingredients like mullet tripe and fresh fish maw that most restaurants don't bother with.


  43. Rank 89. Lao Hsu

    Taiwanese


  44. Rank 90. Mume

    Contemporary Taiwanese

    Fresh herbs and edible flowers land on every plate at this Michelin-starred contemporary European restaurant, which makes the moody, faux-industrial dining room feel like a pleasant joke the kitchen is playing on itself. Seasonal Taiwanese ingredients fold into European technique, and the seafood in particular shows a confident hand with seasoning. Da'an regulars who have stopped reading the menu are probably onto something.


  45. Rank 91. de nuit

    Contemporary French


  46. Rank 92. Yu Kapo

    Japanese


  47. Rank 93. Wok by O'BOND

    Modern French Taiwanese

    A small window at the entrance lets you watch the wok station before you're inside, surrounded by dark green velvet and red walls. This Michelin-starred modern French Taiwanese tasting menu restaurant takes Taiwanese and Asian flavors apart and rebuilds them with French technique, with at least one dish carrying proper wok hei. Taiwanese teas and herb-infused cocktails round out a menu that changes every season.


  48. Rank 94. Kiku

    Japanese


  49. A Michelin-starred omakase counter in Da'an where the soup course alone justifies showing up, a minced fish dumpling bobbing in kelp bonito stock that manages to feel both precise and generous. Lunch leans toward raw fish and nigiri; dinner shifts into cooked kappo territory. The chef is the chatty kind, which at an omakase counter either charms or unnerves, and here it lands on the right side.


  50. Rank 96. Sushi Akira

    Edomae Sushi


  51. Rank 97. YUENJI

    Taiwanese


  52. Rank 98. Hosu

    Contemporary Taiwanese



  53. Rank 100. Sur-

    Contemporary Taiwanese
