An incredible experience, from the humble yet talented chef, attentive service, and creative menu.

I was shocked when the chef herself, Flo came down to greet the customers, introduce the bread, cook the dessert (Le Baba). The real shocker was when she even helped hand write notes to my girlfriend, mom, and I … and even helped us get into our Uber! I’ve never met such an unbelievably down to earth, with a bright sense of humor and smile in our short chats!!

Where Flo was warm and welcoming, the staff were incredibly attentive, professional, and on top of their game. Within the first 5 minutes of entering the restaurant, I knew this restaurant was legit. Never have I felt so taken care of, from having our chairs pushed in, to the wiping of the tables, to replacing forks, to explaining dishes. Truly setting the standard for service.

Food was a ridiculous gastronomic journey lasting 4 hours. An extra course to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday (mont blanc is her favorite!) was a nice touch. We were so stuffed after 6 courses, but every course brought a new flavor that kept entertaining the taste buds and had us never feeling tired of food. My mom loved the presentation, my girlfriend the taste, and myself the creativity. To give an example, never would I have thinking daikon paired well with fish, rum with oranges … boy was I paired wrong! There were so many layers and brilliant ideas.

As someone who has been to a few Michelin-starred restaurants in New York and Paris, this blew all of them out of the water. Such an intimate, warm, and incredible experience. Thank you Flo and team for creating a hidden gem in Da’an!

The devil is in the details. Chef Flo opens her very own restaurant, serving her hometown cuisine-Burgundy. The full menu includes 8 courses and the seasonal ingredients are often expensive, caviar, lobster, uni, truffle and etc. There are many French restaurants in Taiwan and 16 by Flo certainly stands out thanks to Chef Flo's culinary skills. The communal table offers an unique dining experience, intimate and cozy. The portion is substantial and just come with a good appetite-you are in it for a treat.

The food was pretty unique for Taiwan - authentic and fairly creative - seafood dishes in particular were exquisitely prepared and featured subtle touches.  Service problems flagged by previous reviewers have been solved but the whole everyone sits at one big dining table experience is still there, along with a lot of bugs of different types joining you for dinner.  Appreciated generous pours for wine by the glass.

Definitely one of the most exclusive French restaurants in Taipei.
From the decoration to the service and of course the food.
Very creative, it's not only very good but each plate is surprising.
Can't wait to go back again.
Thank you to the chef Florence, who always sublimates her dishes.
