The food's flavor is ordinary, and the portions are not large. The mentaiko seafood pancake is crispy, while the ribeye steak is somewhat tough and the chicken is on the dry side. The risotto and pasta have average flavor, and I couldn't get a good understanding of the dessert section.
The entire space is very spacious, and the atmosphere of the restaurant is comfortable, making it suitable for gatherings of many people. Although the restaurant is crowded, the environment is still well-maintained.
The service quality is very good, and the staff's attitude is friendly and professional. Even during busy holiday periods, the service remains quick and efficient.
BRICK YARD 33 1/3 American Club in Shilin, Taipei
This place has been on my bucket list for a long time, and I've seen many recommendations. We made a last-minute reservation the night before the third day of the Lunar New Year, and there were still spots available. Upon arrival, there was a long line, and the parking lot was quite full. The entire space is very spacious, and the service quality from the staff is excellent!
Due to the holiday season, they only offer special spring festival combo packages. We had four adults and one child, so we ordered the four-person set and added a cake. The total was $3,576 for four adults, which makes it $894 each, including service charge. The taste of the food is such that it’s a one-time experience place #onceonly, and we didn’t feel overly full after eating.
They offer banquet reservation services starting at: Weekday $1,680 per person, Weekend $1,880 per person. Given the price range and the quality of the food, I would prefer to hold an event at a regular hotel instead of making everyone travel up to Yangmingshan.
Four-Person Lucky Package $3,099
Appetizer (choose 1 of 3) ➡️ Mentaiko Seafood Flatbread
I thought it would be two pieces of bread stuffed together, but it turned out to be presented like a pizza 🍕, very thin and crispy, taste was moderately good.
Main Course (choose 1 of 2) ➡️ Grilled CAB Aged Ribeye 10oz
There wasn’t much fat distribution, and it had a bit of tendon. I ordered it medium for the kids, but it ended up being a bit too tough, though the garlic pairing was tastier.
Main Course (choose 1 of 2) ➡️ Montreal Spiced Roasted Spring Chicken
There wasn’t much meat. The skin on the surface was fragrant, but the meat tasted like 7-Eleven’s herb chicken breast, which was dry.
Side Dishes (choose 2 of 3) ➡️ Tuscan Truffle Mushroom Risotto, Pink Bubble Seafood Pasta
The risotto came with a poached egg, the pasta was penne.
Beverages (choose 4 of 10) ➡️ Chef's Soup / Passion Fruit Orange Juice / French Milk Coffee / Rose Tea
Generous portions, taste was average.
Black Forest Raspberry Cake Additional Price $149
This was for the child, so I'm not sure about the taste.
