I've always wanted to go try one of the restaurants on Yang Ming Shan that overlooks Taipei, and from what I've heard, The Top is the best out of them all. Here it is!

Glazed Stir Fried Pork (京都醬燒骨) $380 NT

京都醬燒骨

I've never ever seen anyone put mayonnaise on top of the ribs...but... okay sure...

Stir Fried Beef with Black Pepper (黑椒牛小排) $360 NT

黑椒牛小排

Crispy Chicken (half) (屋頂脆皮雞) (半) $580 NT

屋頂脆皮雞 

Even though the skin was crispy, the meat was quite dry. The fact that they decided to decorate the dish with Pringles was a bit of a turn off.

Stir Fried Salty Pork (爆炒鹹豬肉) $360 NT

爆炒鹹豬肉

There wasn't that nice flavor that salty pork usually brings.

Stir Fried Cabbage with Dried Shrimps (櫻花蝦高麗菜) $190 NT

櫻花蝦高麗菜

The shrimp didn't exactly taste very fresh.

The Top wasn't so great in terms of the food or the service. I wouldn't really recommend the restaurants for food, but I would recommend it for the view. The food wasn't nasty, but it wasn't that great either, so if you were to go there, don't expect much in terms of the food, but just go enjoy the view!
