O que eu devo pedir no The Top?

The Top is best known for its Taipei night view, especially the panoramic city lights seen from the mountain and the sight of Taipei 101 below. The BBQ area is repeatedly described as the most photogenic and popular section, making the view the main reason many people go.

Reviewers most often highlight fried fish, fruit platter with sweet guavas, fried rice with sakura shrimp, salted egg yolk soft shell crab, and steamed chicken. The restaurant also gets positive mentions for Taiwanese dishes and western items, but these specific plates come up most clearly in reviews.

The vibe is scenic and relaxed, with outdoor dining, a cool mountain breeze, and a fashionable, polished setting overlooking Taipei. It works well for couples, families, and groups, and private rooms are available for people who want a quieter indoor meal with air conditioning or heating.

Pricing is described as reasonable to expensive depending on the order, with examples like about NTD 350 per person minimum, NTD 2,700 for three people with drinks, and a NTD 6,500 set meal for eight. Reviewers often say the food is worth the cost because of the view and location, even though some note that the dishes themselves are only average or a bit pricey.

Reviewers recommend arriving right at opening, around 4pm to 5pm, or booking ahead, because the restaurant can fill up fast and waits of nearly an hour are mentioned. Visiting early helps you get an open terrace seat before the line builds, especially for the night view.
