This Taipei-Famous Teppanyaki Just Hit Taichung, and My Wagyu Dreams Came True for Only $35

If you’ve been following the food scene, you know the hype around Tie F.f Teppanyaki is real. This Taipei cult favorite has finally set up shop in Taichung’s West District, and let me tell you—it’s the “affordable luxury” fix you didn’t know you needed. We’re talking Wagyu, abalone, and lobster without the soul-crushing price tag.

Located on Boguan 3rd Street, this spot is super intimate with only 16 seats. It’s a strictly reservation-only, omakase-style (chef’s choice) experience. The vibe? Effortlessly cool and totally focused on the food.

One thing I absolutely loved was the pacing. The chef monitors exactly how fast you’re eating so you never feel rushed or left waiting too long. Plus, they actually take the time to nerd out with you about the ingredients and cooking techniques. You can really feel the passion behind the grill!

The Lineup:
The standard set starts at a mind-blowing $1,100 NTD (roughly $35 USD). For that price, you get a full course including an appetizer, bread, soup, various seafood (pro tip: upgrade your king prawn to a lobster for just $600 NTD!), chicken, pork, and salad. But wait, there’s more—you also get A5 Wagyu, a mini Wagyu slider (so cute, so juicy), and Sakura shrimp fried rice. Oh, and a dessert to round it all off.

The Verdict:
Honestly? You don’t even need the upgrades to walk away stuffed. I made the mistake of going all-in on the add-ons and I was hitting a “food wall” before we were even halfway through the menu. The value here is absolutely insane for the quality of service and ingredients you’re getting.
