The lamb skewers were incredibly tender and well-marinated with great flavor. The staff was friendly and the service was quick and efficient. The prices were reasonable and I'd definitely come back again!

This is hands down the best charcoal-style Chinese BBQ skewer spot in the U.S.! We’ve been multiple times and it never disappoints. The meats are always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, and the service is consistently excellent.

Parking can be a bit tricky, but it’s a small inconvenience for such an amazing dining experience—it doesn’t affect my five-star rating at all. Truly a hidden gem. Highly recommend!

Fantastic food and service. This is exactly like the food I enjoyed at similar Chinese lamb skewer restaurants in Korea. I went in expecting to have to use Korean because a few reviews said no one speaks English, but instead I encountered non Korean servers and had to use English. They also spoke Spanish. There are menus available in Chinese, Korean, and English. You can get served here regardless of language. I highly recommend if you want something different from typical Korean barbecue. It’s also BYOB.

Stopped by to see how good this place is compared to Xiao Chuan Dian few doors down, and the verdict is: MIXED

Atmosphere - It's a small place and it's not as nice as XCD, but you might have more luck finding seating. Stripped down with several tables - we were seated towards the back where it was near door to the kitchen where they were cutting stuff up, so I'd say not the nicest vibe

Food - I came to test one specifish dish, the Korean Cold Noodle (naengmyun), which they did have. Unfortunately it was not even half as good. Broth just wasn't as tasty and overall I was disappointed. When it came to their skewers, I liked their squid and lamb was decent, but again, could not compare to the other place.

Service - Service was good, perhaps better since it's such a small place. Lady checked on us and we did not have to wait too long for anything.

Overall, I think this place is a compelling option for good chinese skewers but just lower your expectations a bit, so give it a try (and you might disagree and love it!) As for me, I have to have the cold noodles and I'll be going to the other place.

They're friendly, but the food isn't really tasty...
The skewered meat is tough and greasy.
The food is salty and tasteless...
