Xiao Chuan Dian Mini Lamb Skewers House is a restaurant that offers a suitable atmosphere for gathering with friends, particularly with advance reservations, especially during peak times and weekends. The restaurant provides a clean and comfortable environment. While the beef and lamb skewers are delicious, the beef skewers are a bit small, and the lamb skewers could use more meat. The service requires improvement as customers need to actively seek servers for orders, drinks, and other necessities. The restaurant allows customers to bring their own beverages, and the lamb skewers cost $1.10 per stick, with a minimum order of 10 sticks. Other menu items, such as bigger beef and baby cow skewers, range from $3-4.50 per stick. Parking is available on the street or in the parking lot across the street.
Customers appreciate the auto-turning grill, but some feel the skewers are half-cooked in the back kitchen and finished off on the table, which affects the taste. The environment is described as retro but comfortable, with booths or private rooms, making it suitable for friend gatherings. The restaurant is BYOB. Customers recommend coming in pairs or small groups of 3 to fully experience the skewer offerings, as there are caps on the number of pieces that can be ordered for certain cuts. The owner is described as kind and willing to explain the menu, although some customers wished this information was more transparent upfront. Overall, the food is considered delicious, with the deep-fried red chili and pork dish being a particular highlight, despite some dishes being on the salty side.
