West Central District, Tainan City｜巷丼食堂

It was my first evening in Tainan and I went to this quaint little place for a quick dinner. Despite them having a busy evening, their attentive service was impeccable. Luckily they had an English menu on Tab to help lost foreigners like me and the staff were very patient while I was making my choices. The food was simply amazing. I chose Salmon and it simply melted like butter in my mouth. The ingredients were fresh and the taste was very refreshing. If I ever go back to Tainan, I will definitely ensure to make a visit to them.

With the restaurant being in a not so busy street and not having a large sign, locating it might need quite some effort! The restaurant has only a few tables and less than 20 seats, so without being super early or late at eating hours, you might need a half to one hour wait. Also, there’s only one chef so food requires time to wait. The food is super nice, being one of the best through the wuton industry, with a sufficient amount of toppings. This is one of the must try in downtown Tainan!

Absolutely first rate! These folks outdo themselves. Having lived in Japan for ten years I can say with confidence that the food here rivals the best of this sort of food in Japan. The servers are kind and the chefs work at rocket speed. It’s a pleasure simply to observe them at work. It’s an even greater pleasure to eat the food they prepare!
