This hugely popular local seafood stir-fry spot is on 大業路 in Beitou, near Beitou (北投站). Its local reputation is enormous, and it now has several nearby branches with different themes. The first branch focuses on good-value Taiwanese stir-fries starting at a hundred dollars, with unlimited complimentary rice and tea for dine-in customers. Prices may be those of a neighborhood stir-fry shop, but the chefs' high-heat wok skills can hold their own against big restaurants. This is a serious kitchen for after-work gatherings and thoroughly uninhibited rice-eating.
● Three-Cup Squid
Three-Cup Squid is coated in a deep, rich sauce, with scallion pieces, garlic and chili bringing that stir-fry aroma. The squid retains its springy chew rather than disappearing under the sauce. Three-cup sauce clings tightly to the surface, intensely savory and flavorful, making it especially easy to enjoy with rice. Place this boldly flavored dish in the middle of the table to contrast with lighter choices.
● Cod with Crisp Soybean Crumbs
Cod with Crisp Soybean Crumbs wears a thick topping of soybean crumbs, with delicate fish hidden underneath. A single chopstickful picks up both soft fish and light, crisp crumbs. The fish is fine-textured; the crumbs add fragrance, saltiness and crunch, giving more dimension than fish alone. That soft-and-crisp rhythm offers a gentler counterpoint to the high-heat stir-fries on the table.
● Crispy Fried Pork Intestines
The intestines are thoroughly cleaned, lightly browned on a hot plate, then reduced with soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic and Thai basil for a three-cup aroma. The green bitter melon included in the dish brings bitterness toward the end, a pairing with the heavy sauce that will not suit everyone. Fans of bitter-sweet flavors may appreciate the variation; anyone who dislikes bitter melon should ask about adjustments when ordering. The intestines are fatty, so this makes more sense with rice than as a shared snack.
● Sizzling Tofu
Sizzling Tofu includes small squid, shrimp, onions, green beans, carrots and more, bringing seafood, vegetables and tofu together in one generous pan. The liquid is reduced just enough, and the saltiness does not overpower the ingredients. The tofu is especially tender, retaining its silky texture after absorbing the sauce and contrasting with the springy seafood.
A small family can pair pan-fried pork liver and king oyster mushrooms with salted egg with greens and soup, adding crispy fried oysters if something fried appeals. For three-cup pork intestines, ask about adjustments first if you dislike bitter melon. For a group meal, make sure everyone has the second branch's street number.

📌 Editor's Wrap-Up
The first branch of 喬園海鮮餐廳 fills up day after day, with over three thousand favorable online reviews, on the strength of pan-fried pork liver that combines wok aroma with a silky texture, plus excellent-value stir-fry fundamentals. The green bitter melon in the three-cup pork intestines did make the seasoning feel a little wearing toward the end for me. Still, the richly savory king oyster mushrooms with salted egg and reliably crisp fried oysters make this a dependable Taiwanese stir-fry choice in Beitou when you want a deeply satisfying meal for small change. Just the place for hungry, spirited weekend wanderers to clear plates after a hot-spring soak.
