Again another place I've seen and forgot I experienced. It was great. My wife had the magi chicken and I had the Kung Po. Excellent prices service and food. I am taking the family next time. read more

I did not enjoy my meal at all. Well, the soup dumplings were tasty but the rest was sub par. Lots of corn starch (I suppose) which made everything quite gelatinous. I usually only write reviews when I like a place but this was so disappointing that I had to say so. read more

I go places for the soup dumplings. They were a little dry. The dandan noodles were good. The atmosphere was nice. The service quick.

Had my first dim sum experience here and it was great!! We split the soup dumplings, pumpkin cakes and crispy chili fish. Everything was delicious, but the pumpkin cakes were on the bland side; however, the texture was on point. The atmosphere is fine. Looking forward to trying more items next time! read more

I had dinner here on a recent Saturday night with a friend and can definitively say that this is one of the better places for authentic Chinese food in the Triangle in North Carolina. Like most hearty Chinese restaurants, the interior was intimate and offered both booth seating for smaller parties and round tables for friend/family gatherings. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the menu offered a lot of traditional Chinese dishes that I haven't been able to find consistently in the Triangle. My friend and I ordered the scallion pancakes, scallion beef, and spicy boiled fish. All the dishes arrived within ten minutes of ordering. The spicy boiled fish was definitely our favorite given the generous portion size, the authentic flavor of the spice and the texture of perfectly cooked fish. The scallion beef had a huge ratio of onion to beef, which was offputting, but it had great flavor and paired well nonetheless. The scallion pancakes, however, fell flat for me because they lacked scallions and were over-fried, which made the texture and flavor far from mimicking good scallion pancakes. Though definitely not one of the better Chinese restaurants I've been to, I think this is still a really great spot for those craving authentic Chinese food in North Carolina. Despite my somewhat mediocre experience with the dishes, the menu does have great variety to offer, and the dishes do have authentic flavor above all else. Overall, 3.5 stars but rounding up for the great service and for the fact that I left the restaurant feeling satisfied. read more

Being Chinese and having your parents own a string of Chinese restaurants growing up, the bar is set pretty high for me to rate a Chinese restaurant 5 stars. Taipei 101 doesn't disappoint. Authentic, delicious, and great service every time. Hands down one of my favorites and must stops when I'm in town for work. Only wish we had a Taipei 101 in Atlanta! Dan Dan Noodles, soup dumplings, stir fried bok choy with shiitake mushrooms, Peking Duck and Beef Ho Fun are some of my absolute favorites. read more

I am in town for a business trip and after eating here once I have already been back and plan on eating here as many times as possible before I leave! I am vegan and they have lots of vegetarian and vegan options, the salt and pepper tofu was awesome, it was hard to try something different but last time I got the sesame tofu and that was equally as good! Others with me got soup dumplings which they raved about and the pot stickers were some of the largest I have ever seen! The service was great too, they were very accommodating and kind. The ambiance is nothing special but the delicious food more than makes up for it! Can't wait to go back! read more

So far, the best Chinese food in all of the Raleigh area. I would've given it five out of five, but it's not the cleanest place. That being said, they have a huge variety of food and all the food I've tried is outstanding. I would recommend. read more

We ordered takeout from Taipei and were not impressed. My husband and I went with an order of crab rangoon, griddle chicken with mixed vegetables and black pepper chicken. Our favorite was the black pepper chicken. The rest of the food lacked flavor and wasn't very good. The portions were plentiful but we didn't save the leftovers. read more

The service was great. The food - not so much. I've never actually been to an Asian restaurant that didn't use enough salt. We came for the soup dumplings - no flavor. Corn soup? We had to add our own salt. Peking Duck - dry and flavorless The rice was good read more

Delicious Sichuan and Taiwanese takeout. Get the sweet and sour pork ribs or spicy chongqing chicken! We called to place our order for pickup and picked it up in the restaurant. I would order this all the time if I lived closer. More food reviews on Instagram: @newyorkcityfoodie read more

We were SO pleased with Taipei 101! Our favorites were the Chong Qing spicy chicken and crispy chili fish. Everything was delicious but these were real stand outs. It was very busy but the wait was reasonable and the service was attentive. We will definitely be back! read more

Portions are huge. But the food is very bland, nothing to write home about. We found a piece of hair on our fried rice, no apologies from the waitress, possibly because she didn't understand English very well. read more

I hope the Taipei 101 is not as nightmarish, traffic wise, as the California 101. But anyway. Decent dumplings and good spicy chicken which is sort of like Chongqing - but it didn't have any of the numbing spices in it which was slightly disappointing. Could have used being more spicy so that it tasted a little bit less like popcorn chicken. Still really good mostly authentic Taiwanese and Chinese food in a region that generally doesn't have much authentic Asian food so definitely worth trying if this is what you're into. read more

A group of us came on a Sunday afternoon around 2:00, but it was still quite busy. We were seated at a table that had menus already placed, but there were not enough menus for everyone and no one came to assist for quite a while. We had to share, which makes it hard for a first timer. Someone finally came and got our drink orders and came back with them in a reasonable amount of time. I asked for light ice, but got lots of ice instead. I asked for rice noodles, but got a pasta type noodle instead. The dish was spicier than I liked, but it was not listed as spicy on the menu. The dish was just ok, I would not order it again. I really needed a tea refill due to the spicy dish, but our waitress was no where to be found. My friend got the mango chicken and said it was ok, but some of the mango was good, some was not. This place is located in a strip mall right off of Chatam, so there is not much parking at all. It is right across from the Cary Theatre, so easy to walk there after you eat, which is what we did. Prices were a little higher than my regular spot. I will only return if I am with a group or someone who wants to go there. read more

By all appearances, Taipei looks like a fantastic dining experience... alas, our experiences of this place (take out & dining in) have left us disappointed and tragically unfulfilled. From reading so many other positive reviews, I am genuinely confused??? Stupefied even. Atmosphere = great Location = great Service = good (very nice people) Presentation = not bad Quality / Taste of Food = NOPE Value = stay home & make a PB&J Food is bland & flavorless. Everything we've tried... From Hot & Sour Soup (how?!?) to General Tso's (again, how??!) to Kung Pow (???!) - all spicy dishes - no flavor, no heat, no enjoyment whatsoever... everything just tastes "sad". Like maybe get a new distributor? Use seasoning??... I dunno where/how/why the mark is so sorely missed here, however Taipei is a two-time bust for us. =( A real shame because WHERE ARE ALL THE DECENT ASIAN (and Mexican!) RESTAURANTS IN CARY?!?!? read more

This is one of my favorite places to go. Soup dumplings, lamb griddle, Chinese pancake with beef, spicy fried fish... the list goes on. Fast service and good prices. read more

One of the best restaurants in RTP. Has served the area for over 10 years. Fastest in serving the order. Good price, too.

Tapei 101 is ideally located in downtown Cary and is always busy -- and for good reason. This is one of the few truly authentic Chinese food restaurants within the Triangle area. I've been here 3 times now and they have never dissapointed. The food is amazing and the value is great too. Most dishes are around $15-$25, and they have large enough portions that that every time I've ate there, I left feeling full and was able to box the leftovers and eat them for lunch the following day! My personal favorites are their scallion pancakes and black bean fish fillet, though you really can't go wrong with any of their items. Lastly, the service is excellent as well. Waiters are friendly and the food comes out quickly, even when its super busy. If you're in the Triangle area and looking for bomb authentic Chinese food, this place should be at the top of your list! read more

Taipei 101 - Taiwanese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Taipei 101 is a gem in downtown Cary. If you're looking for a mix of authentic Taiwanese food and your usual Americanized Chinese fare this is the place to go! I've gone here for dine-in eating, but most recently went for takeout a couple times for the perfect "stay at home" meal. Both experiences have never disappointed me. I usually order the skillet chicken and the eggplant with pork. Both dishes were super flavorful. You can actually distinguish the spices in the dishes instead of plain sweet or salty. The only downside is sometimes the dishes can be a little bit oily, but it's all worth it to get that flavor. I am also impressed by the amount of white rice that Taipei 101 gives with their dishes. To best enjoy the food, you need to soak up all the sauce with the rice. You won't regret it! read more

Had a great time at Taipei 101. The food is always bomb as always and I'm glad to know the quality has changed since covid. Definitely a must try if you're in the are. I would make a reservation though because it gets packed especially during the weekends read more

I got takeout from here on 2-24-24. I got general tso's chicken, sweet n sour chicken and pork fried rice with shrimp. The rice was ok, the general tso's chicken wasn't good and the sweet and sour chicken was terrible. It all tasted like it was cooked and came straight out of the microwave. The place was also a madhouse with nowhere to stand to pick up your order. When I finally did get my food, it was thrown into a plastic bag and tied up real tight. The rice opened up inside the bag on the ride home. I'll never come back here. read more

This hidden gem in Downtown Cary is my new go-to spot for Chinese! They have Americanized & authentic options of the menu so everyone in your party can find something. The Dim Sum menu is available all the time - it's a short list but tasty! Food: Everyone in my party kept declaring how good the food was! Everything was so fresh and flavorful! Appetizers- We loved the Bang Bang Shrimp (fried perfectly!) and the scallion pancakes. My family loved the pro soup dumplings too. The egg drop soup and hot & sour soup were tasty and comforting Entree- They have great lunch specials that come with soup, rice, veggie roll and entree! The Kung Pao shrimp was so spicy and my favorite for sure. The Family style tofu was flavorful and crispy I want to come back for dinner, the cold noodle salad, and the griddle stir fry menu! Service: The service was very friendly and helpful. They over-explained the menu items (I guess many customers are confused by the concept of dim sum or tofu?) but in a kind and patient way. Our server took great care of us and made the meal run smoothly Parking: It's located in a strip mall so there's a decent amount of parking to share with the other shops Decor: It's a little dingy inside but the tables and bathrooms were clean. The decor is a little neglected but still comfortable read more

Great authentic Chinese restaurant, good for large groups of people as the portions are huge. I know this place can get busy so be sure to come earlier in order to reduce your wait time. I have not had the best experience ordering takeout and prefer to dine-in only. We ordered the beef hot pot and soup dumplings and they were both super flavorful and delicious! We each also ordered hot sake and to be honest we could have shared one order. Will be back again to try their griddle chicken! read more

Incredibly delicious food!!! My friends and I did family style and everything was delicious. - Chong Qing chicken was very flavorful, garlicky, perfectly deep fried crunch. It could've been more spicy but the flavor made up for it. - braised pork: reminded me of a home cooked meal. Very tender and perfect amount of marinade - mapo tofu: delicious! Tiny little cubes of soft and spicy tofu read more

I've never been disappointed with the food here! This is a family style restaurant so be prepared to share food because the portions are made for that purpose. The service is also nice and has been pretty quick anytime ive been. read more

This is our new go to Chinese restaurant. We were late to the party, but are we glad we arrived! The food is always hot and fresh. The rice isn't oily or overcooked. We will certainly return again and again. read more

Walked in on a Tuesday evening at 7 pm. Several people in front of us were waiting to be seated and were not acknowledged by staff after ten minutes, so we left. Obviously poor customer service and I agree with other reviewers on this point. Wont be back. read more

Today was my first time placing a take out order and it will be my last. To say the pad thai is tasteless and bland would be an understatement. The noodles are mushy and all contents are the same color.. We drove from Pittsboro to try a new place in search of decent Chinese food. I've had food from street carts that was better! read more

I had one bite of the Chong Qing Spicy Chicken and I was won over! It is perfection. Just enough heat and Szechuan spice without upsetting your GI system, just the right amount of crispness, and so delicious. It even tasted good the next day heated up in the microwave! This dish is going to be a staple takeout item 100%! The fried rice is a dollar upcharge but worth it. It's legit fried rice with eggs, not just soy sauce colored rice pretending to be something they're not! We also got Chinese veggies and my fiancé had the eggplant in garlic sauce dish. Everything was good but obvi my fav was the chicken! Try it! read more

Probably my favorite Chinese food. Wish they had better parking nearby had to walk a half mile

Literally the best Chinese food in town perhaps in the Triangle.. Always fresh and tasty. I love the Crispy Fish with Basil.. YUMM..

I am thoroughly impress I didn't know they had soup dumplings in North Carolina that tasted this great. It was six dumplings for $8.99!! This definitely satisfied my craving and I am a happy camper. The dog was absolutely delicious great flavor and great texture. The beef in the beef hot pot Was beautifully made and the meat was so soft, tender and perfect. The fish and veggies were also flavorful and perfect in every bite. Let's just say our dinner here or was way better than what we have for lunch elsewhere. We were satisfied and happy customers. If you want xiao long Bao in NC, this is the place to go! read more

This has to be the best Asian food I have found in the RTP area, and I am so excited about it! It is hard for me to even make suggestions, as I think our party ordered at least 2/3 of the menu. Dim sum and egg rolls were excellent. Singapore street chicken, chicken with cashews, and sesame chicken were exceptional. Can't wait to go back! read more

I thought this place was average. I ordered takeout and I got shrimp dumplings and the braised pork. The shrimp dumplings were small with little shrimp and the dumpling skin soggy and falling apart when I picked it up. The braised pork was average (not like how mom makes it). The pork was cooked well, but the flavor was severely lacking. The service was minimal, but not bad. read more

Known as one of the most authentic Taiwanese/Chinese spots in Raleigh-Durham-Cary area, the food at Taipei 101 was delicious and served quickly with large helpings. We tried and would recommend their fuqi fei pian (Beef Filet with Tripe), Double Cooked Pork and Dried Hot Pot (Spicy Stir Fry) to see if they could compete with our favorites in NY/NJ. Although the flavor was there we will have to take away a heavily weighted one star, as I'm not sure if they thought we couldn't handle it but while the food was very flavorful, they seemed to have not put in much of the mala spice or any hot spice for that matter. Word of advice to owners, ask customers first, don't assume they can't handle it! read more

This is a not so hidden gem snuggle right in the middle of downtown Cary! You cannot go wrong with any of their food items! I highly recommend the scallion pancakes and the mapo tofu! The spicy Chong Ching chicken is amazing fried chicken! You can also be adventurous and try different items with tripe on the menu as well. If it says spicy, trust that it is spicy af and that's why I love it. Food comes out super speedy here! read more
