Feng Lin Huoshan Izakaya Restaurant — Restaurant in Zhongshan District

Be careful of what they bring to your table. The little tri-dish pickle plate is not complimentary but it’s like a cover charge of $200 per head. If you bring your own drink, although no corkage fee, the ice they brought you will cost another $200 per head. Most unbelievable is how they shamelessly bring a cup over to you table and asked for free drinks from the bottle that we brought to restaurant until they empty your bottle. Anyway, before you pay, always remember to check the “BILL” thoroughly as they tend to add more dishes than what you actually ordered. Oh, lastly, there’s freaking 10% service fee. What a disappointing night, and for sure we will never ever come to this sxxxhole again even if I win the lottery! Worst place to visit in...

Good food and ambiance, but ... The moment you sit down you get an appetizer, without being asked. This is 150 NT per person added to your bill unannounced. We got two dishes that we didn't order, don't mention it and they will be added to your bill. On top of this they make an issue and try and convince you you made a mistake in ordering. Lastly, a 10% service fee (!) is added to your bill without the fee being mentioned on the menu.

Very, very un-Taiwanese...

[EDIT] Make sure to check your bill! Looking at other reviews I can see so many people mentioning their bill not being correct or unintelligibly written so you have no clue what...

I will say as a local Taipei person that crazy about izakaya, this place has the best Yakitori without questioning, absolutely the best, and you can tell by the tenderness, juiceness and the flavour of their Yakitori. The flavour won’t lie, it honestly report the efforts and the techniques of chef. I know someone may argue about their policy of service charge( they don’t charge that but replace by a homemade starter dish), if you have problem about that, you can certainly ask the staffs, they are absolutely friendly. And not mentioning the brilliant vibe in this izakaya, the owners always buy lots of drinks to their customers on...
