I really liked this shop before. But today I wanted to celebrate my birthday here. So I came to the shop an hour early to put the cake and make a reservation. When my friend came, the waiter told us that the seat was taken by someone else. Then she said she would reschedule it for me as soon as possible, but after I waited for another half an hour. She said I had to wait another hour. I was in a bad mood. I just want to say that the service is really bad.

Haha, we all came to the waitlist at 5:30 to celebrate our birthday, but someone else took our name and sat in. We didn’t apologize, just like you want to wait. It’s past 7 o’clock now, and the service is so bad. Simon in the second picture is our best friend. What’s funny is that when our friend went in, the waiter said, “Oh, I remember you. Hahaha. You laughed so hard. People in the queue don’t need to sit in their seats.”

The waiters in this store will chase you out and ask for a tip!The waiter chased me out of the restaurant for tips!The atmosphere is pretty good and the food is average. Not great value for money, but not bad.Then came the storytelling session. There were a lot of people on the day we went, so my friend and I were placed in a corner and ordered some skewers and wine. There was basically no service throughout the whole process, and the food was served very slowly. I had to go to the waiter to remind me, and his attitude was particularly bad.Before leaving, I asked if I could take the wine away, but I was ridiculed and said that I didn't understand the rules (it was my first time as a guest, what should I understand?)So no tip was given. Unexpectedly, when we walked to the parking lot, the waiter actually chased me out and asked for a tip. Dare I ask how shameless you are? What kind of service are you doing? Why do you take this money?No reconciliation, no comments deleted

Everything is deep fried instead of charcoal grilled. Don’t bother.All the skewers are fried, which is a bit tricky.

Food/Taste/ - good food overall. We ordered beef belly, lamb, pork intestines, king oyster mushrooms, and chicken wings. The chicken wings are amazing! Nicely seasoned and very moist; probably the best item we ate. The mushrooms are good but the earthiness is completely covered by the seasoning so not our favorite. Beef belly was a bit bland, the lamb was mostly seasoning but delicious, and the pork intestine was great. - very quiet during lunch hour in the spacious restaurant. The two chairs are the exact size of the table so it's fairly difficult to push in and out of your seat if you're shifted either direction. - server definitely felt like she didn't want to be there. The table next to us asked for their candles to be lit so the food stayed warmer and she gave a heavy sigh before walking away to get the lighter. When she delivered the skewers, she threw it on the plate without a word then walked away immediately.Value for - yummy food in general, service was quick but cold, and reasonable pricing.

Great place for a late night BBQ and a drink. The service was mediocre but the food was pretty decent. My only complaint was the beef skewers were a little too dry. Highly recommend the lamb skewers and scallop vermicelli.

This place has such a cute ambiance but its not too big so It can get super busy. We waited over an hour for two people on a Friday night. It was definitely worth the wait though. Their skewers itself are pretty small in size but they sell it in large quantities (I.e, 20x per order for the lamb, and pork belly). The seasoning they add on all their dishes is so delicious! I didn't know chives could even be eaten like that and it was so yummy. Everything was so good and the restaurant gave me very homey comforting vibes so I def will be back!

Taste :4.3/5Environment: 4.2/5Service:4.2/5Little Skewer is a Chinese restaurant that specializes in individual Szechuan hot pots and Chinese little bbq skewers. The restaurant has a cozy and modern The menu offers a variety of meat, seafood, and vegetable skewers, as well as hot pots with different soup bases and ingredients. The skewers are grilled to perfection, with a crispy exterior and a juicy interior. The restaurant also serves some unique appetizers and grills, such as grilled egg crepe, fried squid, and scallops with vermicelli. The prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. The restaurant also offers fruit wine, soju, and other drinks to complement the food.The only thing is they take reservations.. also busy on the weekend. It will take 40-60 mins to be seated .

Got here 30 mins before opening for dinner because they're always a long wait! People started lining up 5-10 minutes before opening. Not too many people waiting when we left about an hour after opening. Delish flavoring of skewers, they're fun to eat for sure. Oysters and clams had tons of garlic, great flavor and spice. Wish the clams had more vermicelli but I took it home and added more on my own LOLChicken wings were HUGE and lots of flavor. Pretty juicy too. Corn skewers had some sweetness added and made it tasty too. Would def recommend oysters, clam, lamb/beef/chicken wing skewer. Want to try the egg roll and hot pot next.

I loved everything from the ambiance to food to service at Little Skewer --they truly surprised me. I knew I'd enjoy it, but was the flavor and seasonings they used for all their food was so good.I came for dinner on a Monday night with no wait. The space is nicely decorated like with touches of Asia. Even their water jug and chopstick holder were all part of the vibe. The skewers are also kept warm with a pan on every table (not sure if it really does do anything, but it's cute). Between the two of us, we ordered the Beef Belly (20pcs for $8.50), Lamb (20pcs for $9.50), Pork Belly (20pcs for $8.50), Chicken Wing ($4.59 each), Kung Fu Corn (20pcs for $8.99), Chives ($7.50), and Golden Pot ($14.99). While the skewers are small, they're very flavorful and fun to nibble on. The only thing I probably wouldn't reorder is the corn as it didn't taste very fresh, but I appreciate how much work it must be to put each kernel onto the kebab stick. For the skewers, the chicken wing is a must get. When I saw another table order this, it looks so amazing that I had to get it as well. Luckily, it did not disappoint --so flavorful, so juicy, so perfect. The chives are also a must here. They made vegetable absolutely delicious. I also enjoyed having the golden pot as extra filler. It was a sour flavor, which was refreshing and cut all the fatty meats.Overall, food was amazing and their service was wonderful too. They were quick to help us order and bring anything to the table while also clearing out our finished skewers as well. This was such a great experience and definitely recommend. There's lots of drinks as well, which makes perfect for a group with friends.
