Taipei Cafe - Rockville

I was really disappointed to find out that stinky tofu has been taken off the menu. I thought the Taiwanese dishes were fantastic overall. We highly recommend the popcorn chicken, Taiwanese hamburger, and oyster vermicelli! It was a bit unusual to see spinach in the oyster pancake, as it's typically made with Taiwanese bok choy in Taiwan, but we still enjoyed it. The only dish we didn’t care for as much was the eggplant. There was nothing wrong with it, but it simply didn’t impress us.

The Taiwanese hamburger was tasty, but it may not be suitable for those who aren’t fond of pork fat. The chicken fried rice, eggplant, and string beans were all quite good. However, the radish egg pancake fell short of my expectations in terms of flavor and was a bit oily. The oyster vermicelli was decent, but I think I would prefer it with just the intestine next time. Overall, it’s a nice spot for a casual lunch.

If my friend hadn't invited me, I would have given this restaurant a one-star rating. Many years ago, when it first opened, I went there hoping for something unique or special. I can't recall what I ordered, but I still remember that the food, service, and overall atmosphere were quite disappointing. Recently, a friend invited us for lunch there, and while our group had a good time, the food was lacking. The shumai was essentially a tough meatball with torn skin—not recommended. The fried dumplings were overly thick as well.

Went here since I was a kid. Reminds me of home back in Taiwan! I love the Oyster Omelet so much. The manager is super nice too! I highly recommend this place.

I love this place because of the food, and have been here many times! But this time, the manager just killed the entire eating out experiences. She gave the worst attitude ever. Just because we came here for shaved ice as dessert, one bowl of Lu Ruo Fan, and order a take out for braised pork belly over rice entry. I clearly told her that when we got there we just ordering dessert and small bites. It's not like we didn't pay or came in with bad Stink in our faces. So
