Sinasera 24 法式餐廳

I was pleasantly surprised with this hidden (literally hidden) gem in the little town in Taitung. I'll be honest when I say I wasn't expecting much. But I was wrong. It is high end dining at its finest with a gorgeous view of the Pacific Ocean. The service is beyond impeccable. You are taken care of as soon as you walk through the door between the hotel and Sinasera 24. The food made with indigenous ingredients is phenomenal and presented beautifully. It is not rich and the seasoning is on the lighter side but just enough to enhance the dish. The fish (presented as a flower), bamboo shoots and shrimp, angus steak are like a work of art. Another bonus was the 70% chocolate and cocoa pudding. It is expensive but good to treat yourself and great for a big celebration. It is not to be missed! P.s. The chef who came back from France is no doubt a top-notch. You can tell he definitely takes pride in the place – Taitung. We arrived at 6:00 and there were two other tables. We were greeted by the sweet, enthusiastic local waitress, who also told us on the story behind each dish on the menu by explaining many of the indigenous, fresh ingredients and the local stories inspiring the chef’s cooking. The best meal of my 5-day trip.

Unbelievably good. Really great experience and carefully selected ingredients.

One of the best meals I’ve ever had featuring local ingredients done in French style. Excellent service and nice yet casual ambience. Definitely worth going to beautiful Changbin for, if you can get a table.

Truly fine dining that incoporates locally sourced ingredients. Very creative pairing of flavors. Great and professional service.

The food was divine, and the service was incredible. We ordered a five-course meal and paired it with a three-course drink. The waiters patiently instructed us on eating these creative dishes. I do wish, however, that they can provide us with a few more options in drinks, though! Especially in nonalcoholic beverages… And please, for the love of God, have a bit more outdoor decorations. I had the window seat, and your outside looks like a giant cemetery at night. 10/10 will visit there again

This is my favorite restaurant. Of all time. Ever. In my opinion the quality of the ingredients, the innovative dishes, and the impeccable presentation match or beat all the Michelin star restaurants I have had the fortune to dine at. Taiwan has 29 Michelin star restaurants and so far I have been to 14 of them; Sinasera 24 beats them all. As it is not in a Michelin-reviewed city, Sinasera 24 will never have an opportunity to earn a place in the Michelin guide, but if you enjoy great food it is worth the effort to get here and eat this cuisine.

The best French restaurant in Taiwan. It is better than many Michelle starred restaurant I have tried in Asia and Europe. Definitely worth the 5 hour drive from Taipei.

I think it's hugely overrated. Overall the presentation looked nice and some dishes were good, but hardly any of them packed a punch of flavors. I couldn't taste parsley, coriander, saffron or lemon juice in the dishes that they were claimed to be added. Strawberry kombucha lacked sweetness to my liking and my friend thought it was bitter. And there were lip marks on my glass which was really unacceptable.
