Le Palais was definitely the best Chinese I ever had so far. The 28 days old roasted baby duck was an ala carte order-3 days in advanced. Lightly marinated with chinese herb- super crunchy outside yet the meat is extremely tender. The rack and the left over meat can be done in 3 ways- boiled with sour soup, cooked with porridge or stir fried with salt and pepper. The tasting menu in another hand came with some surprise and some dishes was kinda let down. Personally I like the fish maw soup the most follow by wok fried noodle- nicely done without any oil. The abalone and the asparagus with crab meat was not memorable- not bad but just far from my expectation from a 3 stars Michelin restaurant. The service was flawless once I stepped out from the lift, being guided by the hostess all the way to the washroom before proceed to a semi-private 4 seaters dining area. Service staff were also well-trained in the description and taste profiles of every item in the menu, and introduced the dishes in the most poetic and soothing way.While it is said that Michelin inspectors judge based on just the taste alone, I truly believe part of the reason why Le Palais works is due to its opulent décor. The ambience is so remarkable- with the best decorative material being applied and some very pretty cultural/traditional vintage pieces being displayed. The ambience is a bit dark and dim but in a good way-the central of each dining table stand out as a showcase.I am a typical Chinese uncle and I am so in love with Chinese food as I grow older and wiser. However, this was my very first attempt dining at 3 starred Chineseâ. Will I come back- oh definitely YES. For the sake of the ROASTED BABY DUCK, or perhaps I will try the roasted pork next trip...as well as the DIM SUM.Overall: 8.5/10.Dear huanyinchan,Thank you very much for visiting Palais de Chine and share your pleasant dining experience with us. We are delighted to read that you truly liked and enjoyed the experience in Le Palais and we look forward to welcoming you back again in the near future soon.

Having a solo weekend in Taipei. Decided to splash out and treat myself to a posh hotpot lunch. Great choice, I think!Wonderful service, and plenty of sets to choose from. Beef is of high quality too.But they give you a lot. I think one set plus an a la carte order of meat would be enough for two.Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review of your dining experience and your recommendation of our restaurant.We really do work hard to provide all our guests with the best service and meals and love hearing reviews like this.Have a great day!

Contemporary Chinese fine dining restaurant with a great view. We went as a couple and ordered a soup and half roast duck. The roast duck was excellent! This place definitely makes a great dining option for a family as their portions are bigger. We wanted to try their signature duck and enjoy the view and were not disappointed! The service was also very good.Dear penelopeboo,Thank you for your wonderful review. We are thrilled to learn that you enjoyed the dinner at YEN.

We picked out a random place for dinner and this came up. Went on a Sunday evening and it was not crowded - great place to take kids.Ordered Unagi bento sets and the portion was reasonable. Overall very attentive service and the friendly staff would also make effort to engage in small talk. Great vibe and atmosphereThanks, JJHong for your kind review. Also happy to learn that you enjoyed our Unagi bento set. Our Unagi rice are prepared with live eels daily, unlike many places using frozen packs at a lower cost. Hope you enjoyed your trip to Taipei and see you soon. JOHN

Food is excellent and very high quality. May also select more economical sets at lunch time. We selected the set with grilled meat and sukiyaki beef. Meat was cooked to perfection. As the meats are cooked and served at your table, you can enjoy them at the best temperature. Our waitress (and also Chef) Wally is super friendly and cooked the meat very professionally. She explained the cooking method and ingredients very patiently seeing that we are visitors to Taipei. Absolutely a very good place for beef lovers. We will certainly come back.
