Zhongzheng District, Taipei City｜泰獅 泰式料理

Absolutely love this place. It was introduced to us by a friend and we've been coming here for around 5 years now. We watched it grow from a small space where our friends have to make ourselves fit to 3 sections that now serve more people who come! Just know what to order, tell them what spice level you can handle, and be patient especially when there's a lot of customers (it shouldn't take too long once you're seated). It might be tricky to locate it within the alleys, but definitely worth going to for simple and good authentic Thai comfort food that doesn't disappoint!

Delicious foods with fast service. Recommend to book in advance. They limit the eating time (90 minutes). They have this super thick delicious shrimp cake which is a must to try. Thai tea also super good.

Good food that is nice and oily with strong Thai spices. Great to wash it down with some Thai beer. Taiwanese people love the shrimp Moon cake, which is fried shrimp in a very thick patty. Personally, I think it's a little bit mushy and a bit much. The basil pork was pretty good though, especially with the lettuce wrap, The pepper chicken came slightly cold for some reason but it was heavily seasoned with garlic which is never a bad thing, We got string beans with shrimp sauce as well. I think maybe shrimp sauce goes better with leaf veggies. Credit cards not accepted. Reservations seems be necessary unless you are lucky like me and went in on a rainy day. Would visit again with a larger group of people.
