Delicious Skewers, Exceptional Service
My experience at this restaurant was pretty good overall! Some skewers were better than others, but the beef was absolutely delicious, with a hint of sweetness that paired really well. I enjoyed that they were light on the spices, as I prefer to taste the meat rather than crushed peppercorn. I would avoid the oyster and sausages. The service was exceptional, and the pricing was decent for the amount of food. It's a good skewer spot!

Amazing Food and Professional Service!
My experience at this restaurant was so good! We walked in on a Friday night and were very impressed by our server. He was handling everything by himself but remained super nice, professional, and collected – a true pro! The food was absolutely amazing and delicious. We highly recommend the lamb skewers and green onions. We’re definitely coming back!

Amazing Food and Atmosphere!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I really enjoyed the food, especially the skewers which were well cooked. We also tried the cucumber salad and the spicy sour soup, which was amazing! I highly recommend this place. For those who prefer milder flavors, you can also ask for no seasoning. The atmosphere was also a highlight, rated a 5 out of 5, and the service was equally impressive with a perfect score of 5. The wait time was non-existent, and the price per person was between $30–50.

Great Food and Service, Poor Ventilation
My experience at this restaurant was largely positive, with great food and great service. However, the atmosphere was significantly impacted by a lack of ventilation, making the dining area feel very smoky and stuffy. This was a concern, bordering on a health hazard, despite the otherwise excellent aspects of the meal and the staff's attentiveness.

Incredible Spot with Favorite Pork Belly
My experience at this restaurant was incredible. I tried about near everything on the menu and found it to be an incredible spot with a rich history. My personal favorite dish was the pork belly.

Authentic Northern Chinese BBQ Gem
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I enjoyed amazing authentic BBQ from northern China. We arrived at 6: 30 pm and there was no wait, which was great. The place is spacious and clean. According to the waiter, the peak traffic is at 9 pm. I highly recommend trying the beef, lamb, chicken, and potato slice. The liangpi was also good, though a bit sweeter than ideal. I would skip the sausage (American style), tofu skin, tofu enoki, and bbq squid.
