Poor Service

by Csrs at Citysearch

I have received on numerous occasions’ poor service, i.e., not being welcomed in this restaurant. Today, I got there before my party, and was asked to have a seat. Then a woman came in after me, and was told to look around, see if her guest were in the restaurant???? When my party arrived we were asked if we wanted to be seated in the rear of the restaurant, when there were tables up front. We watched the owner go to other tables and have a conversation, but didn’t bother to come to our table. We watched the owner thank others for coming in, but no one, no one thanked us. The food is good, but not worth the bad feelings we experienced. Thanks but no thanks, I’ll spend my money where I am welcomed.

The best chinese and asian food, not only in the city but anywhere. My husband is active duty military and we look for good chinese in every city we end up in and none have ever come close to taipei. The owners are amazing, the food to die for, and they will make authentic dishes that aren't on the menu if you ask. This was my husband's first stop and first meal when he came home from iraq

Highest Quality Chinese and Japanese near Pittsburgh

by vort3xxx at Citysearch

They have the highest quality popular Chinese cuisine and Japanese sushi dishes close to Pittsburgh. I've dined at Taipei Tokyo over 100 times and never had 1 bad meal. They always offer great seasonal maki and the waiters have many non-menu items to recommend for the more adventurous.

They have a very good liquor and beer selection to go with the meals, including some of the freshest 20oz steel Sapporo cans in the city.

The atmosphere is a bit strange (pink neon and pink seats), but it grows with you.

Japanese Items of interest: "Shrimp and Vegetable Tempura Lunch", "Spicy Crunch tuna Roll", "Spider Roll", "Volcano Roll", and the Best "Dynomite Roll" in the city.

Chinese Items of interest are: Fresh sea bass with Ginger Scallion Sauce.

Lunch is affordable, and dinner offers some options to splurge on if you want to show off. If you want to make a good impression on somebody who has never tried Japanese or Chinese food, this is a good place to take them.

• Pros: Very Fresh, Very High Quality Sushi. Huge Chinese Menu. Great fish, very nice waitstaff.
• Cons: Needs more japanese items on the menu.
