How to Say ‘Do you have private rooms?’ in Traditional Chinese

請問有包廂嗎?

qǐng wèn yǒu bāo xiāng ma

[qǐng wèn yoe bāoxiāng ma]

💬 Usage Tip: 請問 (qǐng wèn) "may I ask" is the polite way to open any question to staff. Put it in front of almost anything: 請問廁所在哪裡? "Where's the restroom?"

🇹🇼 In Taiwan: Many Taiwanese restaurants, especially hot pot and banquet places, have 包廂 for groups. They often come with a minimum spend, 低消 (dī xiāo) "minimum charge", so it's worth asking when you book.
