First of all, this place is open late so thats always a major plus. The workers here were very sweet and showed us pictures when we asked questions about the menu. And the food was actually so good, I'm thoroughly impressed and will be coming back. To top it off they have this cute little flower wall and the decorations are so pretty such a cute lil vibe

This is a nice little hidden gem for Chinese skewers. It did give me a late-night food shop in Northern China vibe. It's not AYCE, and they make the skewers and bring them out to you (you don't grill your own meat). They offer a large variety of skewers, grilled seafood items and side dishes. I got the tried a lot of them, and here are what I would get again: lamb, beef, octopus, chicken skin, chicken wing, and grilled oysters. The seasonings of the skewers were delicious, and the meat was grilled to perfect doneness, especially the seafood. The fried milk dessert was lightly battered and yummy. The skewers were on the pricier side, and the 5 of us came out to a $300 bill, but we did eat till our hearts were content. $60 would probably cut it for a typical meal for 2 people. We went on a Thursday night and the restaurant had no wait.

Terrible service. Period. We ordered a bunch of skewers like 40-50 of them and got 6 lambs then none in 20 mins. People behind us got their orders already. We kindly checked with the server, she lied and said we just got here. Everyone was ahead of us. We understand sometimes people messed up but no need to lied. Also, when we decided to pay and leave. The owner walked out and threatened us. What a joke. One server, she is very kind to say sorry. But the whole experience is unbelievably bad.

I love beef skewers but they have only fat skewers if you re lucky you could see some pieces of beef on your skewers. And after we told them these are all fat there is no beef in here and she said ‘its not guaranteed you all get beef or meat ! But we definitely werent expected all fat !

The food is expensive compare to other restaurants on Convey Street,and the size is small,we can spend less money and eat to be full in other places,if you want to try chinese bbq,you can try,but if you expect to eat until you are full,you need to get ready to spend a lot money.

especially when the owner is hosting his "dinner" inside the restaurant and it feels like they were at they're own backyard. Everyone is very loud, drinking and smoking. Which makes us customers uncomfortable.

The lamb skewers r so tender and tasty! We have also tried a bunch of other things and they are all delicious and taste like China. The service is prompt and friendly. As a native Chinese, I highly recommend this place

This place is as authentic as they come. The menu is full of Delicious bbq and northern Chinese style appetizers.

The food is good but too expensive. The parking lot is always crowded. Had to park in the nearby square.
