"My new favorite Chinese restaurant in North Carolina. 3 cups Chicken, General Tso's Chicken, and salt and pepper fish with salted duck egg yolk."
I decided to dine in and wanted something nearby, so I tried Taipei Cafe and was definitely not disappointed. Although these dishes aren’t listed on the menu, I highly recommend calling ahead to order the Salted Fish and Chicken Fried Rice—it was excellent, not overly salty like at other places, and the rice was cooked perfectly. The Salt and Pepper Fish Fillet was nicely fried, well-seasoned, and delicious. The Salted Egg Yolk Lava Ribs had a subtle salted egg yolk flavor that was absolutely yummy. I’m definitely planning to try more items from Taipei Cafe’s menu soon!
For the five years I have been in the Raleigh area, I always drive 20 min to get their Peking duck?the best in the area, and add $5 to get a huge bowl of soup. The other dishes are decent, some just taste okay. They also offer a lot of vegetarian options as well as low-calorie diet. In general, authentic and less salty/oily Chinese food. After COVID: the portions of some dishes are really small. The boiled spicy beef only came in one plastic pot and with very few pieces of beef, which is half of other restaurants. Not worth the price?
Pretty good for take out considering most Chinese foods taste better when eaten fresh at the restaurant. The spicy beef and tendon had great flavor, however the portion is smaller than other places I have tried around the area for the same price. Thepork intestine was flavorful, but it has too much vegetable and not enough intestine. The beef hot pot was delicious, myfavorite out of the 3 things I got.
Super happy with our first visit here! Hubby and I both ordered egg drop soup and an egg roll each, then shared a Sweet Sour chicken with white rice entry?yummy! Small (about 8 tables with mixed numbers of seating available?.there was a group of 8 atone table), cozy and really clean. We?ll be back!

This was very authentic Chinese and I thought everything we ordered was good with large portions. We got the fried jumbo ginger shrimp and the eggplant with basil sauce. The basil sauce was soo good. I think I need to try more things on the menu.
Taipei Cafe offers a menu that is decent but not exceptional. Compared to typical American Chinese food, the dishes here are fairly standard. We decided to try some of the more authentic options, including the boiled fish and brisket hot pot.
Great authentic Chinese restaurants. I don't recall last time we ate at a Chinese restaurant and was worth the review till now. Great food, employee and cozy environment. Highly recommended.
Stopped in for a quick bite, very impressed with their vegetarian options. Can't wait to go back! This time we tried Yellow Bird (very good) and fried tofu with Chinese broccoli (good)
