The overall performance of the dishes is quite good, especially the Mapo shrimp tofu, which is highly recommended. Although the prices are a bit high, the quality and seasoning of the dishes reach a certain standard.
The restaurant's decor style is modern and exquisite, catering to an Instagram-worthy aesthetic. The space is spacious with many seats, providing customers with a comfortable dining environment.
The service and serving speed are average, and the prices are somewhat higher compared to the service, so one should consider their budget before deciding whether to visit frequently.
Dian Ba Cantonese Restaurant is located in the alleys of the Eastern District in Taipei City, with the nearest MRT station being Zhongxiao Dunhua Station, Exit 4, about a 2-minute walk away. Dian Ba specializes in Cantonese cuisine and offers exquisite Hong Kong-style dim sum. The Zhongxiao branch is the second store opened by Dian Ba this November. The Dian Ba group also includes Dian 8 and Dian Ba Snacks, totaling three brands.
The restaurant has a large number of seats, with two seating areas: front and back. Most are four-person tables, and the back area features large round table private rooms. The decor style is modern and refined, unlike typical Chinese restaurants, with a low-saturation aesthetic of white, brown, and gray, popular among social media influencers.
Ordering is done by scanning a QR code with your phone, and payment is made after the meal. Cash and credit cards are accepted, and there is a service charge.
Today, we ordered quite a few dishes, and my thoughts are written below the photos ⬇️
Overall, the food quality is quite good, service, and speed of serving are average. Considering this new and spacious place in the Eastern District, it justifies the price (about 20% higher for the decor? 🤣), but I probably won’t come often due to my budget constraints.
