Great selection for AYCE! Super easygoing vibe and just feels like a nice place to kick back and throw down like 40 skewers and a few cheap cans of beer. Plenty of options for skewers, and AYCE includes your standard appetizers like soups and dumplings, along with great drinking bites like fried chicken gizzard and quail. Mantou with condensed milk was a surprise hit too, very nice to have something sweet and chewy mid meal and at the end. Our server was very kind and attentive, and very patient with us since it was our first time at Chinese skewer bbq. Looking forward to coming back again!

Ordered their Shrimp Fried Rice via Uber Eats. Packaged nicely, came with utensils. The fried rice was as expected, texture of the rice and flavoring was perfect. Both kids loved it and they are particular about their rice.

Very very authentic Chinese "street food". I got the Salt and Pepper Mantis shrimp. This place is open late, serves drinks, and has a younger crowd. There aren't many Chinese food places open till midnight.

All meat skewers tasted like cheap, long-frozen meat. Not fresh. If you don’t want to have stomach and diarrhea like me, don’t go there.

I ordered late night Uber Eats. If anyone is wondering about munchy food the pork egg fried rice and the salt and pepper chicken wings are bomb. I eat CONVOY a lot and it's similar quality to the other Chinese places there. It's definitely the best late night

We brought a large group here for Hot Pot and had an incredible time. Food was great, atmosphere was perfect for us, wonderful service. We even did karaoke!Kid-friendliness: Easy place for kids to dine. Server fixed chop sticks so little ones could use them!

Went with my work group last week, the service was amazing, the food was top notch, price more than fair and the karaoke was cringe AF (as it should be). Will go back again when I'm in that area again.

The food was so good nothing else really matters. ? I ordered the lamb, which was well seasoned, perfectly cooked, and very tender. The restaurant was empty, other than my daughter and I, however, there was a table filled with to-go and delivery orders. After taking my first bite, I understood why. Even sitting at the table, dining in, one has to order from the app/website.We were hungry and tired, so we just went with it. I wasn't going to post a review because of the lack of service and the emptiness of the place. What's more, after I took my first bite of food, I completely forgot about it. I ate until my plate was empty.

Food doesn't taste good. Tried the grilled olyster not taste good. 酸菜羊肉 not taste good. Lamb skewer not taste good ...... Plus it's very very pricey. Really confused by those 5 star reviews saying food is authentic and delicious. Really?

Found this Gem through Yelp. Place is very welcoming and the service was exceptional. A little slow on a Friday night, not sure if it's because of the location that's why not a lot of people know about it. But if this restaurant was in the center of convoy, I bet it will be pack everyday. Has a lot of unique drinking food. Looks like they also have a band but no one was playing when we were there.

A late night go to spot if you're into chinese skewers. This place used to have a darker ambiance but after their face-lift and lighting has made the place much more presentable. Food is decent for how late this place closes. Gets the job done and is one of the better places to eat after hours.
