Tender Skewers and Delicious Beef Noodle Soup
My Chinese husband approved it. All the skewers I ordered – lamb, beef, and chicken heart – were so tender and juicy. The pig ear was also so fresh! The beef noodle soup was slightly (very mildly) sweet, but I still loved it!

Delicious Food, Will Return!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I ordered the smashed cucumbers, dumplings in chili oil, smoked eggplant, and dan dan noodles. Everything was incredibly fresh and tasted absolutely delicious. I will definitely be back for sure.

Incredibly Flaky and Tasty Beef Pancake!
My experience at the restaurant was surprisingly delightful, especially with the beef pancake. It was way flakier and tastier than it had any right to be. The food received a perfect score of 5, and the atmosphere was also rated a 5. Reservations were not required, and the price per person was between $10–20. I enjoyed the indoor dining area.

Excellent Food, Great Value
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I enjoyed delicious food at decent prices. I paid less than $35 for a cucumber salad, lamb skewers, beer, and Chongqing noodles, and all of them were excellent. The lamb was nicely seasoned and tender. The cucumber salad was aromatic with cilantro and plenty of garlic and sesame oil. The Chongqing noodles were spicy and numbing, with bok choy to soak up the flavor. The food was a definite highlight, and the price made it an even better experience.

Best Chinese Skewers in SF
My experience at this restaurant was positive overall. The skewers were pretty good, and the service was also commendable. However, the chili powder mix was a bit flat tasting compared to what I've had in NYC. Despite this, it's the best of the four Chinese skewer places I've visited in SF. I hope they continue to tweak the chili powder to improve it.

Great Noodles and Friendly Service!
My experience at the restaurant was very positive. The Diet Coke was a good price, and the beef was genuinely real. The woman serving us was incredibly nice! I would definitely come back just for the noodles alone.

Horrible Experience, Fake Beef!
Don’t come here! The beef is fake! You never know what meat it is, be aware! Bad taste and bad service, you will wait 45+ minutes to get your first dish. All things are horrible! You better close don’t running the business in this city! 💣

Lamb Skewers & Dandan Noodles Delight!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially concerning the food. I first had lamb skewers 20 years ago in Turpan, China, and they've remained a favorite dish. The skewers here did not disappoint; they were bbq'd to perfection with delicious spices. The Dandan noodles were also incredible. I will definitely be back.
