Stepping out of the elevator, we were warmly greeted by the restaurant staff. Once our reservation was confirmed, we were led past the many occupied banquet table to a small table for our party. As part of our red, we pre-ordered the duck 3 ways dinner set. The meal was promptly served and devoured. Everything was delicious. The skin of the duck was both crispy and moist. The bones used to make the soup was very tasty. Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for traditional Peking duck.

Restaurante chino de comida de alta gama. Su especialidad es el pato a la pekinesa servido en 3 golpes. Por desgracia no pudimos probarlo porque sólo sirven patos enteros y nosotros sólo éramos dos, pero había muchos grupos tomándolos. Probamos varios platos muy buenos, pero recomendaría la carne de patas de cangrejo frita. Ofrecen una tetera de té verde gratis bastante bueno. Los precios son razonables y pagamos 990 dólares por dos personas. Admiten tarjetas. No es obligatoria la reserva, pero es recomendable.

Visited here for dinner during the business stay In Taipei 🍽️ Been a while to eat Beijing duck and their price is reasonable compared to eating in Japan. Very juicy skin and thick texture meat go very well with cucumber and onions with flour roll and sauce. Side dishes and soup are also very good. I didn't plan on getting the whole bottle of guava juice when I ordered the first drink... Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
The roasted duck is the best in this restaurant. However, I can not have a chance to take a shot as it is very quick to be eaten by my friends. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $600–800 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes 白菜心拌豆干

This is probably one of the oldest restaurants in Taiwan and also the best Beijing cuisine. We ordered several items of the menu plus a Peiking duck 3 ways, meat & skin wrap, stir-fried duk meat with bean sprouts, and duck with pickled mustard greens.

Staff are professional, most of them work here for many years. The roast duck is totally different from other restaurant. It’s really tasty. We had a great time here.

Very impressed with the food here. We waited pretty long for our food. The skin of the duck was served first, but the wait time for the duck meat took 15+ mins to come. Makes us wonder if we were served with the same duck. The scallion and cucumber that goes in the filling of the wrap is left outside on the table before serving, so they taste very dry and has no flavour. The rest of the dishes are mediocre. I valued more on the quality of the duck. It feels like the restaurant exist to serve their old customer since the servers seems to be friendlier to other tables, which seems like they knew each other from before.

A very old Chinese restaurant in Taipei with legacy. Many senior Taipei residents like this one very much. One of the most famous dishes is crispy duck (Peking duck). The young people may not like the dishes as they are traditional old style Chinese food with no fancy decorations and with normal presentation. The taste is good if you like genuine Chinese food.

Family gathering and come to this enjoyable restaurant for authentic Beijing style food. Looking around, most of the customers are regulars and must been here for many many times. Instead of ordering the regular signature Peking Roast Duck this place is famous for, we decided to order several small dishes for us. Surprisingly, not bad at all. Please see my posted photos to try yourself next time. I love this traditional Chinese restaurant still insists the best quality food from Northern region of China, and not going for the fancy seating and decoration, even these are very important factors for enjoyable dining.
