Peko Peko

South Melbourne's Taiwanese favourite for crispy honey beef, wontons and secret spicy noodles.

Cosy, dark-wood dining room with quotes on the walls. lively and buzzing rather than quiet, and genuinely noisy during peak corporate lunch periods.

Hand-wrapped spring rolls, a 'secret' dry spicy noodle dish that doesn't headline the menu, plus double soy-roasted latte, guava juice and Taiwanese beer.

Most reviewers call it authentic Taiwanese comfort food, including diners who've eaten in Taiwan, though a few found it more Australianised than traditional.

Reviewers consistently call it good value with generous portions, though a couple noted the house fried rice serving size had shrunk recently.
