Xinyi District, Taipei City｜海灘叢林 A Beach

Very cute decor. Loved the honey lemon black tea ( for tea lovers, I would highly recommend). Really cozy place, beautiful presentation and lovely staff. The girl that attended us was really sweet and friendly. There is a minimum spend rule, so better not to go after meals (not just for desserts or drinks)

After attending a pizza competition event in Taipei, we went to this place for lunch. Initially, I became interested (when I found it in google) because of the style and aesthetics. I didn't expect too much from the food but it didn't disappoint me so I'm giving 5-stars for the following reasons: 1. The atmosphere feels good. In the hustle of the city, their ambiance provides a more slow-paced and relaxing feeling. 2. It's family-friendly. My little boy enjoyed sitting on the artificial sand/corals, playing with his toy truck while waiting for our food. 3. The food was F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C. Finally, something we ate made us feel happy and satisfied. (Food description in photo captions) 4. The wine was amazing. Forgot the name but it was a German red. Dry, dark, oaky, medium tannin. It leaves a fruity note in the tongue. 5. The service was good. We didn't make a reservation and they were full but they told us they would check all the other reservations if they could squeeze us in.. and so they did. But I advise that you make a reservation ahead of time. NOTE: Do not wear high heels if you don't want to have a hard time walking like I did. 😅😂

The restaurant is very spacious with cute decor. It does remind you of a laid back beach. The food and drinks are great. The Taiwanese Sesame Oil Chicken Risotto was different and delicious. We also liked the Shrimp Paste Risotto with Scallops & Cheese. We celebrated a friend's birthday here and the staff was very helpful. They prepared a birthday cheese cake with a pretty candle. Overall a great experience.
