Do not get the street food here.
Came in to grab a quick bite, they said order would be ready in 10-15min. 30 minutes later they kept saying 5 more minutes until almost an hour later so I made them give a refund.
Wasted 51min of our time and still no food.

I can't bring myself to gatekeep this place, I've never had a bad meal here. They serve even large groups quickly and have ample seating upstairs as well. The milk tea is great and the specials like the shredded cold chicken are fantastic. Absolutely a cut above all the tourist fare in Chinatown Square, and yet everything is still reasonably priced. Go here, you won't regret it.

Great value for Hong Kong-style Western cuisine. 2 cost around $40 without tips. You can easily get full with 2-3 dishes.🚗 Convenient parking with validation available at $2 for 3 hours. ❤5/5 for Stir-fried Black Goat: Delicious and not overpowering, with cilantro to cut through the richness.❤5/5 for Salted Fish and Tofu Pot: The tofu is tender and the dish is very comforting, perfect with rice.❤ 1/5 for 盐酥鸡 Crispy Salted Chicken: Quite ordinary, not recommended. For a tastier version, I suggest trying the Crispy Salted Chicken 盐酥鸡at Taipei cafe instead.

The food is always a hit! I have ate here multiple times with friends and family and everyone enjoys the food! It’s a must try in Chinatown if you haven’t yet. The service folks are sweet, no complaints with the folks. The service is just a bit slow. The atmosphere is comfortable, it’s a relatively small place with updated seating and bathroom are kept clean!

Good food, good service in a fantastic location.
Try the spicy lamb stirred fried with thin cilantro. It’s a personal favorite of mine. I asked for it to be mildly spicy and it was done perfectly tender and just a hint of spiciness. We also had eggplant fish fillet chow fun (thick noodles) and golden stirred fried tofu. All of these are excellent. Not too heavy in the sauce and you can taste the actual food that’s in it. The chow fun was slightly too soft— but still delicious. More firmness would be perfect. Over all 4.8 stars so I round it up to a five. 4 stars for the atmosphere as seating near the door is not recommended. We went on a cold day and waiting guests kept the door open and made our food cold. I had to tell them to close it myself. The host was too busy.

Saint’s Alps has always provided good quality and delicious food over the years. They used to stay open really late because they were our go to for late night meals. Prices were reasonable. Great service. Restaurant was clean. They were good for groups. Portions were ample when sharing.
