The Top 88 Places to Eat Near Meidz Seafood




  1. Rank 4. YUENJI

    Taiwanese


  2. Rank 5. Saka

    Taiwanese


  3. Rank 6. SHINEYU

    Cantonese


  4. Rank 7. Hui Chung

    Hong Kong Vegetarian


  5. 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.


  6. A low-key Taiwanese home-cooking spot tucked down an alley, where a renovated old property has been fitted out with a Japanese-style wooden counter framing an open kitchen. The menu is short and the portions are small, the kind of place that quietly earns a Michelin Bib Gourmand without making a fuss about it. Stir-fried eel cooked in house-made goose fat is the dish regulars plan around: rich, bouncy, and sweet-sour enough to demand a bowl of rice alongside.



  7. Rank 11. Hibiki Seafood

    Seafood Taiwanese


  8. Rank 12. Fleur de Sel

    Contemporary French


  9. Rank 13. Sur-

    Contemporary Taiwanese



  10. Rank 15. House of Dawn

    Artisan Noodles





  11. Rank 19. Forchetta

    Taiwanese



  12. Rank 21. meatGQ

    Steakhouse


  13. Pan-fried buns are the whole point here, and the owner spent three years working from memory before he felt they were right. This small dim sum shop in Nantun turns out pork buns with a soupy, fatty-to-lean filling that got there the long way, plus veggie buns packed with bok choy, dried tofu, and mushroom. The steamed dumplings have a chewy, satisfying pull. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the kind of place that earns it quietly.






  14. Rank 27. Don Moo

    Noodles


  15. Rank 28. Ajisai

    Zhejiang





  16. Rank 32. FIRNS

    Franco-Asian French


  17. Rank 33. Yùn: La Cuisine

    Contemporary Taiwanese



  18. Rank 35. Torien Yakitori

    Yakitori Japanese

    A dinky Japanese garden leads into a yakitori counter where local chickens, prepped fresh each day, go over the grill with nothing but salt so each cut can argue for itself. The chef spent time honing the craft in Japan, and the set menu moves through cuts most people have never thought to order. Counter seats watch the kitchen the whole time, which is half the point. Call ahead if you want chicken sashimi or squab.



  19. Rank 37. Yuan

    contemporary Taiwanese


  20. Rank 38. Munchi

    Modern Vietnamese

    Counter seats facing an open kitchen give Munchi the feel of a wine cellar that accidentally got very good at food. This casual neo-bistro in Taichung reworks Vietnamese flavors through a contemporary lens, with a two-chef team and a sommelier steering the room toward natural wines and cocktails. The Munchi-style pho alongside a glass of something orange is the kind of pairing that makes you reconsider what a Vietnamese restaurant can be.



  21. Rank 40. A Kun Mian

    Taiwanese






  22. Rank 45. UNA-VERSE

    Dessert Taiwanese



  23. Rank 47. NIKU RYOURI FUKU

    Creative Japanese






  24. Rank 52. huist

    Taiwanese


  25. Rank 53. Le Plein

    Taiwanese

    Bare concrete and exposed brick share space with warm wood across two floors and a courtyard, which gives Le Plein the look of a loft that took a wrong turn into something more considered. It's a tasting-menu-only restaurant built around Taiwan's seasonal produce, with the number of courses shifting between lunch and dinner. The cold-brewed tea pairings are the quiet argument for skipping wine altogether.


  26. Rank 54. Isagi

    Japanese


  27. Rank 55. enPure

    Modern Taiwanese

    A garden path leads you in before the food even starts, which sets the tone: this is a tasting menu restaurant in a minimalist room of brick red and grey, where a former interior designer runs the kitchen. The cooking is modern Taiwanese, built around local produce, and the rice cooked in a claypot with tea seed oil from a partner farm is the kind of dish that makes the sourcing worth mentioning. The tea pairing is an easy yes.


  28. Rank 56. Wen Tao

    Taiwanese


  29. Rank 57. Moment in Beijing

    Northern Chinese



  30. Rank 59. Ji Zai Ten

    Vegan Noodles




  31. 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.



  32. Fried pizza sits on the menu alongside the baked kind, which tells you this Neapolitan pizzeria in Lukang takes its Campanian credentials seriously. The dough is soft and well-leavened, the crust fragrant, and the toppings are chosen with real restraint. A gorgonzola and coppa combination turns out to be the quiet standout. Ranked on 50 Top Pizza Asia-Pacific, Vesuvio is a long way from Naples and seems entirely unbothered by that fact.




  33. Rank 67. Bebu

    Hakkanese



  34. Rank 69. Cat House

    Chinese Noodles





  35. Rank 73. Hung Chin

    Hakkanese





  36. Rank 77. Yi Hsuan

    Taiwanese



  37. Rank 79. Tang Ming

    Taiwanese









  38. Rank 87. TAIVII

    Contemporary Taiwanese
