AI Spot Summary
The meal options are abundant, and the pan-fried dumplings have an excellent texture, with juicy filling. The grilled pork belly with peeled chili is impressive, and the double sauce noodles are chewy and delicious, making them worth recommending. The boiled edamame and marinated chicken platter are suitable for pairing with drinks, while the sweet and spicy sauce and grilled skewers are a bit expensive.
The restaurant has a great atmosphere, suitable for group meals, with reasonable prices and high value for money. However, it's harder to make reservations at the Zhongshan branch, so it's advisable to book in advance. The environment is clean, but the lighting is a bit dim, and the seating is slightly small.
Excellent service, friendly and attentive staff, able to provide appropriate suggestions to enhance the dining experience. The staff actively refills water, and the service is good.

♢ A-Bao's Taiwanese Tavern ♢
Location: Located near Zhongshan MRT Station, on the second floor to the left when you exit from Exit 3.
Dining Environment: Clean, with dim lighting and somewhat small seating.
Ordering Method: Scan the QR code to order online.
Dining time is 90 minutes. If you need utensils, you can ask the staff, who will keep refilling your water. 😂 The service is quite good.
Location: Zhongshan District, Taipei City
The entire restaurant has a great atmosphere and excellent service.
The prices are also quite reasonable.
I personally think it's a place with high cost-performance value.
However, it's not easy to make a reservation at this Zhongshan location.
I usually rush over to ask as soon as they open, but by then, there are hardly any seats left for later dining times.
There’s another branch in Gongguan, which tends to have more available seats, and the seating is also larger.
🌟 Pan-fried Dumplings & Assorted Dumplings
The pan-fried dumplings are my top choice among dumplings.
The texture, which combines frying and deep-frying, is very delicious.
The filling is very juicy, and with just one bite, the pork juices burst out.
The assorted dumplings have three different fillings: corn, regular chives, and shrimp.
My favorite flavor is the shrimp, which is very fresh and tasty. 😋
🌟 Skewers
I personally think the most memorable dish is the pork belly wrapped in peeled hot peppers.
The pork belly has more fat, and paired with the peeled hot peppers, it reduces the greasiness significantly.
I think this is the tastiest skewer.
The other skewers tend to have flavors you can easily imagine.
🌟 Double Sauce Noodles
This is a new type of noodle dish that I haven’t tried in other places.
The noodles are very chewy and definitely of a quality that makes you want to order them again next time.
I quite like them and recommend them.
During this visit, it might have been due to the holiday, as many items were out of stock.
I felt quite sad about that.
Also, many people come here to drink, but since I had other things to attend to afterward, I didn’t get to review the drinks.
However, there are many drink options available.
Perhaps next time I can come here to enjoy some drinks. 🍺
Finally, you don’t have to go to Xinyi District to get Abolang! Abolang is a great place for friends to gather for dinner. It has a rich wine list and many meal options. It is a Taiwanese restaurant style. The meals I ordered this time were all delicious. I really like Abolang's dumplings. The skin is thin and the fillings are fragrant. The chili sesame sauce is very special and not very spicy. People who don't like spicy food can still try it, but the braised spicy sauce is more If you don’t dare to eat it if it’s spicy, you can ask them to eat it separately~
My favorite among the meals is the fried tofu, which is very crispy and delicious with peanut powder. Highly recommended!
