We came here for dinner last Friday night (11/14/08). We had a late dinner there after visiting Felicia's mom at the hospital. Since Nick was attending a TAS dance performance and Matt ate with his grandmother, there were only three diners (Felicia's dad, Felicia and Peter) that night.
Keelung Seafood Restaurant Tien-mu is part of a Taiwanese/Japanese-style seafood restaurant chain which serves shushi, sashimi as well as a variety of stir-fry seafood and vegetables. The Tien-mu location is on De-shing (德行) East Road, just west of Jung-cheng (忠誠) Road. While it is not located in the fanciest part of town, the restaurant gives an expensive, sophisticated look from the outside with a lot of dark-colored wood paneling and dimmed lighting. There wasn't a valet service available but we were able to find street parking just in front of the restaurant.
We ordered a small bowl of "pickled or raw" clams to start, followed by a plate of stir-fry clams, anchovy with peanuts and a steamed fish. We also ordered a plate of "mountain vegetables" or "山蘇" and a small serving of Taiwanese specialty - smoked shark meat or "鯊魚煙" with boiled pork liver. We topped off our dinner off with Uni handrolls for Felicia and Peter, an Ikura handroll for Matthew and a bowl of very tasty seafood soup noodles for Felicia's dad. With two bottles of beer and soda for Matt, the bill came in just below NT$2000.
Overall, the food was fresh and tasty but not spectacular.
