Osteria Amici Miei - Taipei

Had an excellent meal in this small Italian restaurant. Highlights: the muddles were local by the Matsu Islands, so plump, fresh and incredibly juicy; the pizza was thinly encrusted and divine; the tiramisu was excellent, could taste the bitterness of the coffee and the kakao powder was definitiw some quality. service could be better. but eating makes it. love it!

UPDATE: excuse my ignorance but the style of pizza served by Osteria Amici Miei is what is known as Roman style, which is characterized by being thin and crispy unlike the Neapolitan style that are more regularly seen. An interesting pizza (we tried the truffles and mozzarella pizza) that is thinner than thin crust. While surely not to everyone’s taste, no one can deny it isn’t interesting.

The food is exceptional! genuine Italian dishes, made with real ingredients, brought directly from italy from the cook. we went wrong there, but since every week back. we have made this our weekly tradition and a good one! the service is excellent, period. nice staff and a great cook! the atmosphere is nice and cozy, open with the pizza kitchen so that they can see that the cook makes the pizzas. desserts are also made fresh daily, and they are delicious. i highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a real Italian meal in taipei, or just a high quality, great tasting in general!

All handmade by an Italian chef, truffle risotto is very yummy, so does the pizza. Tiramisu is a bit too sweet for my taste but all in all, experience is wonderful.

Pizza made by Italian chef- delicious! Antipasti plate we ordered small) looked quite big. Totally recommend. Advice: book before coming, place is very popular.
