“ This place is my favorite Taiwanese restaurant in Vienna! I come here every time I'm in Vienna. They are family owned and extremely friendly. The homemade potstickers are amazing! Crispy on the bottom and juicy on the inside. The beef noodle soup was also very good with tender meat and tendons. They provide chili oil on the side so you can spice your soup to your preference. The lamb and scallions was seasoned very nicely and they provide a plate warmer because there's nothing worse than cold lamb! ”
“ Authentic Taiwanese restaurant in Vienna. I ordered pork chop noodle soup and the pork chops tasted great and soup was great too. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was the strong smoky smell from cooking. Probably didn't turn on the vent in the kitchen. Decor was dated too. Otherwise I would have given the food itself 5 stars for authenticity. ”
“ I live around the corner, which means this is basically a second kitchen and the owner is like the Asian grandmother I never had. The is super friendly and the food is fresh and good. Not always busy and easy to get a table. Either way, it's worth the trip down Burggasse. Oh, and the best Hot and Sour soup. ”
