The restaurant specializes in steaks, focusing on prime cuts of beef. The wing plate steak is highly recommended, with tender meat and just the right amount of marbling, paired with garlic toast for an excellent flavor.
The restaurant's decor is primarily based on American country style, with potted plants and string lights hanging everywhere, creating a warm and dimly lit atmosphere.
The restaurant does not charge a service fee, and customers can help themselves to drinks from the fridge.
[Taoyuan Zhongli] Garden Steak
A restaurant that exclusively sells steak dishes, featuring the use of whole cuts of beef. The decor includes many plants and ambient light strings that create a lovely atmosphere. The indoor lighting is dim, giving off a hint of American rustic style.
The most expensive steak costs only $490, and there is no service charge. Every steak set comes with soup and bread (both can be refilled). You can take a drink from the fridge, and refills are just $20 per bottle. There are also salads and fries, with fries available for an additional $100.
It is said that the lamb shoulder steak is hard to come by, and I found myself not so lucky. I ordered two different parts of steak 🥩, and I particularly loved the recommended flap steak! The bread for the day was garlic toast, and even though I was already full, I couldn't resist! The thick toast was toasted to a slightly crispy state and smelled wonderful!
One downside is that the restroom is located outside; if it rains heavily, you would need an umbrella. Going out for the restroom in winter might be a bit cold... it's quite breezy.
✨ Personal Recommendation
◽ Flap Steak 14oz (PR) $490 (10oz $400)
> Only the flap steak is available in a large portion, and the doneness is managed by the restaurant, which is medium-rare with a bit of blood. The meat is thick, but since the knife wasn't very sharp, cutting it was slightly difficult, and it was a bit sinewy with not much aroma.
◽ Flank Steak 8oz (PR) ✨ $480
> I initially wanted to order the beef short ribs, but the restaurant advised against it and recommended this one instead. Thankfully, I listened to their suggestion! It was thin, easy to cut, had a good amount of marbling, and the doneness was medium-rare, which I could accept. Adding a bit of salt made it really delicious 😋 even more satisfying than the flap steak. 👍🏻
