" This place exceeded my expectations! The pork chop rice was phenomenal, full of flavor, and reminiscent of dishes I had back in Taiwan. The ambiance was cozy, perfect for a family dinner. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, which made the experience even better. Can't wait to come back and explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic time! The service was amazing, and we didn't wait long at all for our food. I absolutely loved the Taiwanese pork chop; it was well-seasoned and cooked to perfection. Honestly, I cannot think of a single negative aspect of my visit. Highly recommend this cozy little gem in Chinatown. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a decent lunch here but it wasn't as exciting as I'd hoped. The portions were reasonable, and the food was good but not exceptional. The soup dumplings could use a bit more broth and flavor. Service was adequate, very friendly staff, so it balanced the experience. Not sure if I'll be back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" The staff was really friendly, and the ambiance was nice but the food fell short of what I anticipated. My expectations were high, but the Xiao Long Bao were not as juicy as they should be. The fried rice was decent, but I expected more in terms of flavor. Overall, a fine experience, but not one I'll rush to repeat. " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot recommend Taiwan Cafe enough! The black truffle soup dumplings are a must-try. I've had dumplings in various restaurants, but these were truly exceptional. The broth inside is rich, and the flavor is unmatched. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff was friendly. I'll definitely be coming back soon to try more dishes—such a gem in Boston! " (*Curated Review*)

" Typically, I don't write reviews, but this place deserves some recognition! The soup dumplings were glorious! I mean, bursting with flavor and just the right amount of soup inside. Service was friendly but they could have used more people on the floor since it got busy. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointing experience overall. The food tasted average and didn't feel authentic at all. I had higher hopes based on recommendations from friends. Service was also lacking; we felt ignored at times by the staff. I would not return based on this visit. " (*Curated Review*)
