南園活魚老店餐廳(無固定公休） — Restaurant in Taoyuan City

I had been to this place twice and had a very positive experience both times.

The fish and the cooking deserved a solid three stars in my book. The owner going above and beyond to accommodate special requests is what earned this place the fourth star.

Store provide a fresh fish, cheap, and delicious food. Our group of 11 people ordered 5 types of dish and paid 275/p. These two pics IMO are the best out of 5 that we ordered.

The only downside of the store is the toilet. They only have 1 toilet, which pretty much...
