Very cool and unique cocktails. I tried one of their tea creations which didn’t disappoint. We were able to walk in on a Wednesday night at 8pm and got a table with 4 people. 400-500B average per drink.

I had an amazing experience at this bar! The cocktails were top-notch, and the staff were super friendly and helpful (and they spoke fluent English!).

They change their menu every year, so you know you're getting something creative and delicious. Highly recommended!!!

Worthy of its praises, this bar serves very well crafted cocktails that you should choose carefully.

The name sums up the recommended approach to trying on as much as the restaurant and bar have to offer.

Speaking of the restaurant, the ingredients are assembled and perfectly cooked to render a tasting experience beyond your expectations.

Very good atmosphere with dimmed lights yet sufficiently bright to see what you're eating and drinking.

The staff will ensure that your experience is topped with quality.

There are many bars in Taipei, but I don't know of any other bar that can match the cocktail you want to drink as precisely as this one. Each cocktail has its own story, and you can feel the strong sense of care and attention to detail. The waitstaff are all classy, but they are all very easy to talk to. It is also noteworthy that many of the waitstaff speak English fluently. Please spend a wonderful evening in Taipei at this restaurant.

This place was great! Jocelyn helped us today and she was very knowledgeable on all of the cocktails at the bar. Outside of the cocktail menu, she suggested a tea-infused Manhattan that tasted amazing. As a bartender myself, I was very impressed with her knowledge. Huge kudos to the indulge team. No wonder they’re an award winning place!

One of the best restaurant I have ever been! Recommended.
All food and cocktail are great, staff are polite and they explain the menu and all the dishes and drinks in detail.

I got help from a Taiwanese friend for the reservation, but I went on a Sunday night and it was not fully booked.

I didn't speak any Mandarin, but Grace was there to help explain the concept, the menu, and also helped recommend stuff based on your preferences.

I got 2 appetizers (sea urchin bavarois and prawn paste) and a prawn bisque risotto with wagyu. The presentation is neat, but the flavors just work very well! Highly recommend the prawn paste and risotto.

I also asked Grace to pair drinks with the food. For the appetizers, I got it from their menu that stays there regardless of the concept for the year. It was exactly what I wanted: clean, smooth, a hint of ginger lily flower/apple fruitiness to not clash with the delicate flavors of the appetizers. For the risotto, I was recommended a whiskey based drink with basil and green tea. To my surprise, this is very complementary as the flavors don't overpower the dish. And then for dessert I got a drink that contains aloe, pineapple, popcorn, seasalt milk. It was a perfect dessert drink.

To top it all of, Grace is just such a delight to have conversations with! I was a solo traveler and there was another solo traveler and all 3 of us just talked about a lot of different stuff, from food and drink recommendations through to cultural exchange!

Would highly recommend a seat at the bar if you're a solo or small group diner.

The place is really worth all the hype and I can see why it got featured on Netflix. The tea drinks are next level. I got two of them - Iron Buddha Tea that comes with Tequila and Honey Dew Black Tea that comes with Rum. Both were so good. We also got the seafood platter and some fries. My friend got the Pouchong Oolong Tea and it was great too.

Craft cocktail bar. Excellent and unique cocktails like peanut washed pina colada, very interesting pairing of flavours. English speaking bartenders, very friendly and chill atmosphere. Very accommodating, I was lucky to phone in and book a table for two at night an hour before arriving. Recommend you phone in and reserve a seat in advance. I would come back again next time I visit Taipei.

One of the best cocktails, if not, the best cocktails I've ever had in my entire life. I couldn't remember what it was called but I'm pretty sure it had some pandan flavour in it. It was served in a wooden "tea cup" with some flower petals as garnish.

We went for birthday celebration and were welcomed by friendly staffs. They offer a good variety of cocktails, we tried two and they were both delicious. The serving of dishes are generous and they pair very well with our drinks. Overall, very pleasant experience.

A very good place, and I understand why it’s one of the 50 best bars in Asia.
Went there 3 times during my visit in Taiwan.
Can be a little expensive but I recommend visiting there at least once on your visit to Taiwan.
Amazing drinks rich with flavours and very creative while using local ingredients.
And the stuff is also very nice

Great place for dinner and drinks. The atmosphere is good and after 9pm the light is darker for a different ambiance.

Went to this high ranked cocktail bar in Taipei for both dinner and drinks. Hidden in a back alley, the atmosphere changes after 9 pm into a more speakeasy looking bar, although the décor is modern style. The bartenders were presenting each cocktail carefully to the customers and the food was also well prepared!

Indulge Experimental Bistro by Aki Wang has an impressively diverse cocktail menu, and the menu itself was also beautiful to peruse through. They are still featuring the 10th anniversary menu (2009-2019), which is a tribute to Taiwan through five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. In addition to the new element-inspired cocktails, Indulge also brought back two top cocktails from each of the prior years.

I was also excited to try the food menu, but most of the options I wanted were sold out by our 9pm reservation. They did have a simpler late night menu available as well. The food we did get to try was fine, albeit forgettable. I was absolutely blown away by the creative and balanced cocktails here though. From the fragrant oolong and stone fruit notes of Metal No. 1, to the intensely woodsy perfume of Metal No. 2, the range here was incredible. Some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had!

Visited for cocktails 10 April 2023. Managed to walk-in on a weekday night, but it's recommended to make reservations!

Loved the cocktails, and how there's a drink for everyone's preferences. The current edition is floral! With fruit, wood and floral themed drinks. Bartender Grace provided excellent service and helpfully explained the different drinks on the menu!

Very nice experience!! All the dishes were fantastic, well done in terms of flavor and quantity. We ordered four cocktails, two were amazing, two were so-so, in general, the experience was great though. Staffs were super well-trained, everyone was polite, kind, and professional, they can introduce all the items from menus to you and gave good recommendation. Most important, them price was not super high!
Love it!

A very special Bar, with extraordinary drinks and food. The waiter will suggest Drinks, which Match your Taste. Also the Service ist very good. You should book your seat 2 weeks before visting.

Top 50 bar in Asia and they really live up to their name! Drinks are delicious and they can customize to how you want their drinks. Food is not bad but I found myself snacking on their fries rather than the actual food.
