Cafe 88 is a reliable restaurant offering tasty dishes, especially the Taiwanese popcorn chicken and beef noodle soup. The outdoor seating is great when the weather is nice, and the portions are generous. The dishes like pork chops, wonton noodle soup, and minced pork noodles are delicious. The restaurant doesn't use MSG, and even the plain rice is good. Customers have praised the authentic Chinese flavors, with one describing the food as "rich, genuine, and deeply satisfying, like it's made from passed-down family recipes." The service is friendly, though some have noted the owner's attitude can be less than warm. Overall, Cafe 88 is a recommended place for a satisfying meal, offering a taste of authentic Taiwanese cuisine in Charlottesville.
