Poor service. I don’t know if it’s the boss or the attitude of the skewers.

food was overpriced and served in very small portions for how much we’d pay. Serving presentation was very unappetizing and staff did not really care for our arrival and

The food was bad but the service was even worst. The food came first without drinks. (We ordered water and milk for our sons) My son tried the food and it was too spicy for him and we asked for water the waitress said wait and watched my son stick his tongue out crying and we waited for couple mins still no water so we asked again. The drinks that we ordered for our sons we had to go grab them by ourself. We finished our food fast and we didn’t even enjoyed it. We paid our bill and we headed out. The waitress chased us out asked for tips. I told her there is no tip with this bad service.

Was different, Chinese style bbq. Had different style of skewers and lamb dumplings were delish. We shared lamb noodle soup which also so good. And the Tangtsao beer is so good!

The lamb loins and chicken gizzards were burnt, bitter and unpalatable.

My new favorite place! Be aware before ordering skewers, they give a lot. Two of us ordered a lot thinking it'd be like yakitori & will be one skewer, but most of them came 2-4 skewers. We were full even before halfway through & we thought they took double orders & the bill will be a lot. When the bill came, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was less than half that I expected & certainly we got the bang for our buck.Everything was crazy flavorful. Food came super quick & before we could finish a skewer, another one set came out. Chicken gristle (soft bone) is my all time favorite. Nothing can beat the crunch & flavor. Loved it! Lamb kidney was a pleasant surprise. The spicy mix dip was the best I ever had.I'm in love with this place

Me and my wife stopped by here for dinner. Plenty of different choices on the menu. I was certainly surprised how good the pork dumplings were. We tried a number of different skewers. All the barbecue is well seasoned, loved it!

Authentic Chinese bbq skewers

It feels like a food stall, and every side dish is unique. The second time I came here, I ordered a double portion of the spicy fried clams, which was super delicious. Grilled cold noodles, grilled squid, spicy skewers...all of them are great?The food is served quite quickly, and the service is also good!

The food is good. However, small portion skewers. The service is ok, but you definitely need to speak Chinese or Mandarin to order. Otherwise, just point at the menu. Paper plates instead of dishes. Like i said,the food is pretty good, I'm giving 3 stars for those reasons.

Absolutely friggen boss. Delicious. It's open late and sooooo good. I love the tofu fish and the mushrooms and my wife loves the lamb dumplings. The scallops are brilliant. So tasty.

A very underrated BBQ restaurant. All skewers are great tasting. The soups are the best and the family owned staff is so helpful and nice. I love coming here to eat?

Horrible service. An old guy arranged me to sit on a small table because I was here by myself. The customers next to me with a young child were very loud. I requested to change the table, but that guy refused. There were a lot of empty tables. I left the restaurant. I would not want to pay for this kind of service.
