Happened to come across this izakaya restaurant near my hotel and decided to try.
The boss very capable and friendly, able to manage the whole restaurant single-handed and delivering far beyond delicious food.
Ingredients were very fresh, fried items very fragrant, sushi were well prepared! Try it if you are near this location! Definitely worth a try!
Really very good! 太好吃了!

If you wanna try some Japanese style late night food, I would higher recommend this cozy restaurant! It is small but you can get more than expect. Chef XiaoXin and his bro are very friendly! They loved to talk with you!
Food here are also tasty and fresh. I would recommend the wasabi mushroom. I would definitely come and visit chef Xin again!

My husband and I visited 小新 three times in the course of the one week stay in Taipei 🇹🇼
Hence we had opportunity to try various dishes here. 😋
From sushi, sashimi of different fish, grilled fish, fresh oysters, don bowls, abalone, sea urchin, sweet shrimp, chawanmushi with prawn head for extra umami flavour, deep fried lotus root, soft shell crab and stir fry lotus and more sashimi with cold sake.
Overall ingredients are extremely fresh. 🎣
Main chef 小新 is skilled, friendly, other chefs are competent too, great teamwork 👨🍳👨🍳
Restaurant is compact so reservation is advisable 📝
The price to performance ratio is amazing, truly value for money 👍🏻👍🏻
Highly recommend 💯 Please support if you are in the city 🙌🏻
Wonderful little Japanese diner!!!
Super value for money, and the boss is really friendly. Visited three times and one time we just left it to him to decide on our dinner after letting him know our dietary restrictions.

Feels like midnight diner! The food is not the main point of this restaurant. The owner and the very carefree chill vibe is what makes this restaurant interesting. This is a one man band restaurant serving sashimi, sushi, grilled food. They also do lunch but remember to call ahead to reserve a spot.
Walked in on New Year’s Eve and had one of the most amazing food experiences of our trip. Unexotic, superb quality, super fresh, prepared with respect towards the product, cherishing the natural tastes of japanese cuisine.
Any time again!!!
