ikea瑞典餐廳 桃園店

Due to the Taiwan Lantern Festival, I came to this IKEA restaurant located at the Taoyuan High-Speed Rail Station for a meal. However, because it coincided with the Lantern Festival and the weekend, the line was very long; I waited almost 30 minutes before I could sit down and eat.

The dishes here are similar to those in other IKEA Swedish restaurants, featuring classic items like meatballs, roasted pork knuckles, and salmon fillets. I personally find the flavors to be relatively light and healthy; their dishes are less often fried, with many being braised or pan-fried. Therefore, some flavors might be a bit unfamiliar to Taiwanese palates.

However, what impressed me the most was their side dishes. I ordered two fried chicken wings, and they were very juicy and hot right out of the oven. The tenderness of the chicken paired with the crispy thin skin was on par with top Taiwanese fried chicken shops, so I recommend trying the fried chicken wings.

For drinks, you need to buy a cup separately. You can enjoy unlimited refills, with options including Swedish fruit sodas and sparkling beverages. I personally recommend the sweet pear flavor, as it has a relatively natural taste.
