A MICHELIN star: cuisine of great finesse. Worth the step!

From the chirping of birds and crickets to the custom-made tableware by local artisans, everything in this strikingly designed room paints a vibrant portrait of Taiwan. In the same vein, a historic map of Taiwan adorns the origami-folded menu... More info

A five star experience. The service staff was at the door ready to welcome us in even though we had arrived early. We were promptly served hot tea in the waiting area on the first floor. There were about 10 courses - all of which were meticulously executed and the flavours were on point. There was excellent story telling which really connected the dishes together and allowed us to gain more understanding about Taiwanese food culture and agriculture. We particularly enjoyed their bread, butter + honey course. I also ordered the mocktail pairing - which was interesting; but I felt that the drinks were a bit too sweet for my liking (the server did warn us). For around 200 USD per person, we would really recommend this experience

An exceptional dining experience at Banbo - from start to finish, everything was beautifully executed. The food, service, and storytelling were all top-tier, making it one of the most memorable meals I’ve had in Taipei. Banbo is an intimate restaurant with very limited seating, so securing a reservation can be quite a challenge, but it’s absolutely worth the effort (or fingers crossed for a table from last minute cancellation like how I was able to secure mine). Each dish was introduced with care and depth, highlighting this beautiful island’s local ingredients in creative and thoughtful ways. The flavors were refined yet comforting, and the wine pairing elevated every course perfectly. A standout detail for me was the utensil holder!!! It’s the most elegant and unique piece I’ve ever seen. It perfectly reflected Banbo’s aesthetic: understated, beautiful, and purposeful. I was so impressed and asked the server where it came from because I wanted one for myself! The only minor downside is the acoustics — the space is cozy, and it’s easy to overhear nearby tables. Still, that hardly detracts from the overall experience. Banbo is a rare gem that captures the essence of Taiwan’s terroir with grace and creativity. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates thoughtful, ingredient-driven fine dining. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
