Hi-Lai Harbour Tianmu Branch, Buffet restaurant in Dexing Village, Taiwan.
Hi-Lai Harbour Tianmu Branch is a buffet restaurant on the seventh floor of a building along Zhongshan North Road in the Tianmu area of Dexing Village, Taipei. The dining space is divided into several sections, each dedicated to a different type of food, from seafood and hot dishes to a separate dessert counter.
The Hi-Lai brand started with the Grand Hi-Lai Hotel in Kaohsiung, which opened during a period of rapid economic growth in Taiwan. The group later expanded its dining operations northward, eventually opening this branch in the Tianmu neighborhood of Taipei.
Tianmu is a neighborhood known for its mix of local and foreign residents, and the restaurant's menu reflects that by combining Taiwanese staples with dishes familiar to an international crowd. The seafood counter tends to draw the most attention, with fresh catches arranged in full display.
Reservations are strongly recommended, as tables fill up quickly, especially on weekends when lunch service is also available. The restaurant is on the seventh floor, so look for the elevator inside the building entrance.
Although the restaurant belongs to a hotel-based group, this branch operates independently from any hotel property and focuses solely on dining. The menu rotates with the seasons, meaning some dishes available on one visit may not appear on the next.
