How the prices are counted
Per person, before service
Every figure is for one guest and excludes the 10% service charge most Taiwanese fine-dining restaurants add; some also charge a small fee for water or tea. Prices shown in pounds, euros or US dollars use the day's exchange rate and are approximate.
Where prices come from
Dinner is the main tasting menu where there is one, and wine is the cheapest pairing for it. We take prices from each restaurant's own website where they're published, otherwise from recent reviews, booking sites and local food writers. Where a restaurant offers several menus, the note says which one is shown. Lunch is the restaurant's set or tasting lunch menu, and the note says which days it's served.
Stars and Google rating
The Google reviews score out of 5 and the number of reviews, checked in October 2026. Stars come from the MICHELIN Guide Taiwan 2026, announced on 21 July 2026. A green ▲ marks a restaurant that gained a star in the August 2025 or July 2026 guide; a red ▼ marks one that lost its star.
