• As others said - nice place but expensive!

I was disappointed to learn that the Loving Hut which used to be here had closed, but of course pleased to see the venue stay vegan (under new owners). So I had high hopes that this would offer something extra the LH didn't. The interior has been redone, with a slick, modern, wooden interior. It has the feel of a classy vegan restaurant. Staff were friendly, and the whole place had a very nice vibe. My only slight disappointment was the food itself. I ordered their namesake burger, and while it wasn't bad, it was basically a typical burger: a bread bun, a slice of deep fried fake meat, garden vegetables, mustard and tomato sauce. The salad and fries (a separate side order) were pretty standard. My drink was very nice, basically like the same drink at starbucks. If you want to take someone somewhere nice in that area, then this place might be the place. But I personally thought that 550NT was just too much to pay for what's basically an ordinary burger that could be had at many other not-so-classy restaurants in Taiwan for half the price (and a drink, which I think you have to order). There was a huge menu, so perhaps I should try some other dishes? In some ways this is the antithesis of Miss Green: at SoulR you get a big but not very imaginative meal (at least I didn't) while at Miss Green you get a good creative burger but an expensive portion is the size of a small snack. Perhaps I'm just too picky?!? Lastly, although I know many other restaurants do the same, I personally hate the "10% service charge". I'm happy to pay more for good service (and it certainly was good service at SoulR) but I think it should be included in the price, as it serves no purpose other than to deceive customers into spending more when they go to order. 300NT should be "300NT" not "270NT.... We add a 10% service charge."
