"Discovering unique wine and food pairings is a highlight here! As someone accustomed to soju with Korean cuisine and Chinese dishes paired with beer, exploring Taiwanese cuisine with wine was incredibly enjoyable (and the food is great) Marco's expertise in wine selection adds an extra layer to the experience. I highly recommend letting him choose the perfect wine to complement your meal!"

"Went here to eat because the sommelier at the winery we went to in Saint-Émilion recommended it. Food was great, especially if you’re craving Asian food while traveling in Bordeaux, but Marco is also an expert sommelier. Definitely talk to him about your preferences or just let him lead you to a bottle or two that will pair perfectly with the food. He also gave us recommendations on wine bars to explore in the area which ended up being the perfect place for our last night in Bordeaux! Will definitely be coming back if I get lucky enough to visit Bordeaux again in the future :)"

"If you’re looking for a place in the city center where you can enjoy authentic Taiwanese cuisine while exploring a selection of interesting niche wines and high-quality classified wines, then this hidden gem in Gambetta is the perfect choice. The staff here are incredibly warm and welcoming, the food is delicious, and the wine selection is expertly curated. My wine-loving friends and I regularly gather here for a great time."

"Authentic Taiwanese cuisine! Love the chicken entree dish as well as the pork main dish, remind me of home. Healthy and delicious and the wine list is amazing! You can find the most amazing wines from not only Bordeaux but some of the top tier Burgundian producers."

"This is the place where authentic Taiwanese food meets fantastic selection of wine. Good vibe, good food. The staff is friendly. The dish is amazingly prepared in its own. We firstly visited in 2024 and cannot help to come back in 2025. Highly recommended."

"I'm from Taiwan, and I've been craving Taiwanese food for so long. Finally, one of my friends recommended a place to me. I can assure you that if you like Asian food that isn't spicy, you must come here! The food is authentic Taiwanese, and you will enjoy the aroma and taste. It amazed me."
