The Top 100 Restaurants Near Abba Hakka
-
Rank 1. Abba Hakka
Hakkanese
-
Rank 2. 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.
-
Rank 3. Le Palais
Cantonese
-
Rank 4. Silks House
Taipei
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.

Rank 5. 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.
-
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.
-
Rank 7. Eika
Contemporary Japanese
-
Rank 8. 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.
-
Rank 9. 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.
-
Rank 10. Mudan
Tempura Japanese
-
Rank 11. 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.

Rank 19. Shang Hao
Chinese
-
Rank 20. 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.
-
Rank 21. 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.
-
Rank 22. 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.
-
Rank 23. de nuit
Contemporary French
-
Rank 24. Tien Hsiang Lo
Zhejiang
-
Rank 25. Kiku
Japanese
-
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.
-
Rank 27. Hosu
Contemporary Taiwanese
-
Rank 28. ZEA

-
Rank 29. Motoichi
Tempura Japanese
-
Rank 30. INITA
Contemporary Italian
A one-Michelin-star tasting menu tucked into a Songshan alley, where the name bundles Italy, Japan, and Taiwan into a single word and the kitchen delivers on all three. Expect ten-plus courses built on Italian technique, Japanese sensibility, and local ingredients, with the chef rolling pasta dough tableside before the final savory course. It's a serious, quiet room where the food does the talking.

Rank 47. 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.

Rank 61. Wang's Broth
Chinese
The scent of braised pork hits you before you find the stall number. What started as a night market cart has been around forever and grown into a proper sit-down spot in Huaxi Street, bright and clean inside. The draw is braised pork rice, the sauce glossy and dark, sweet-savory and sticky in the best sense. Stewed cabbage cuts through it neatly. The Michelin Bib Gourmand crowd knows what they're doing ordering nothing else.

Rank 66. Lai Kang Shan
Chinese
The lamb soup here comes five ways, each cut slow-cooked with Chinese angelica until the amber broth runs clean and faintly sweet. This is an old-school Chinese soup shop that's been around forever and recently moved into a brighter two-storey space. The braised pork sauce, simmered low from pork skin and fat, goes over both the rice and the noodles, making the choice between them harder than it should be. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand.

Rank 93. Open Smile
Taiwanese
Braised pork is the whole argument here, slow-cooked until it hits that sweet spot between tender and giving, served over rice or noodles at a bright little Taiwanese spot that earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand. The menu wanders into scallion chicken and Sichuan peppercorn oil for variety, and a house chilli sauce is there when you want more heat. It's casual, cheerful, and the kind of lunch that makes the afternoon feel manageable.

Rank 99. Toriaezu Curry
Japanese
Warm wood, minimal fuss, and a single-minded dedication to Japanese curry: this small Songshan dining spot holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand and earns it by keeping the menu short and the dashi-based curry deeply savory. You pick from three toppings, fried chicken, a Scotch egg with a properly runny yolk, or kadaif-wrapped shrimp, and the kitchen rounds things out with seasonal vegetables. Matcha panna cotta closes the meal quietly and well.
