Came here for brunch on a Monday and it was 90% full. Remember to book in advance.
We had a salmon set and a pork chop set, and both were great. I prefer the salmon over pork because the marinade and seasoning of the pork is more like Taiwanese flavour than western one that goes with salad and bread etc., but the texture was great.
It’s slightly on a pricey side for brunch, but given the quality and portion it is acceptable. 10% service charge required, so we ended up spending 1000+ for two people.

I decided to come here after reading a few reviews about how this was one of the best brunch places in Taipei. We were definitely not disappointed the risotto and the French toast were incredible. however, I will say that it is on the pricier end. you definitely will have to make a reservation if you want to come here.
Underwhelming and disappointing. We waited over an hour just for the waiter to tell us that our food has not even been made yet. If you don’t have the capacity to serve every table at a reasonable timeframe when it is fully booked, don’t accept new customers or remove tables so at least there’s more room to walk. What a disappointing experience. The waiters are also not helpful at all, just walking around and doing nothing. If you enjoy waiting upwards of 2 hours for your meal, this is the place to be at.

The food was actually quite tasty, we ordered seafood and chicken pastas, they were all well seasoned and you can taste the freshness.
But the portion was sadly poor and the price was also sadly too high. And we went at 7 but the most of desserts were sold out, it was a huge bummer.
There were a lot of teenagers in this restaurant, I bet they went for the vibe and the Instagram worthy decorations, but the seats were too low and the tables were too high, even for myself I am 1.8m tall, still felt struggled while eating.
And also, if you want to create a real antique vibe, your plastic water bottles were way too off from that style, those bottles were not even the same ones, it felt like they bought it from different stores at different times, those bottles are ok for restaurants that priced lower than 200, not a place that charges you over 400 for a small portion of pasta.
All my 3 stars were for the food, but I don’t have much to say for the rest of things.
