Everything is tasty, you really can’t go wrong no matter what you order. The only downside is the long lines, but the food makes it totally worth it!

Overall, I really like this place! My favorite was the seafood skewer platter, super tasty, though everything leans a bit on the sweeter side.

The food was fine, but the pickup experience was really disappointing. I waited quite a while, only to be told my order had actually been ready for over 10 minutes. No one tells me until I asked. It just felt disorganized and like the staff weren’t paying attention.

Amazing food and really decent price. 2 girls and a guy spent just about $140 after tax and tips. And we were starving. The flavour of the dishes are so unique and tasty. Couldn’t find any bad things about it.

Just remember to make an appointment ahead of time cause this place is always so so busy.

Authentic northern Chinese cold noodles

Wow! What a surprise!
I went to the xiangyang restaurant next to Gala BBQ and came back the next day to check out this restaurant.

It was one of the best BBQ restaurants I’ve tried. Period. Their dishes are so unique, for example chicken skeleton, or fresh shrimp & seafood served with soya sauce. The tomato egg drop soup is pretty yummy, salad (all kinds) dishes are great too. The cold noodles and main dishes are undeniably delicious. Even simple dish like tofu & centric egg is mixed brilliantly. And of course their BQQ ❤️😍🥰 you have to come and try for yourself. The way they cook their dishes is not like other restaurants, let me tell you…and I have tried many many of them over the years.

You will have to wait though, for sure. Everytime I went I waited more than 45 mins. They seem to be very busy and popular with the youngsters. I guess one of the main reasons is their pricing. It’s very good priced on all in menu. I also think their meat & seafood are fresh. The tables are quite small. But it’s understandable. They are on the rise!!!

Kids are welcome but I didn’t see kids here. The food may be too flavorful for kids and too crowded for them to play. Parking can be tricky because the times I went, it was hard to find a bare spot.

If you love a very casual and satisfying skewer hearty meal, this is a place to go.

We tried all kinds skewers on the menu, from beef, lamb to interesting beef tendon, beef backstrap, beef artery, spicy duck tongue and chicken joints. They are all tender, juicy and well-seasoned. The dongbei cold noodle, baby cabbage with garlic sauce and tomato & dough drop soup, are also very delicious and homey. Paired with house black beer, it’s so satisfying!

The service is very quick. My only comment is that they could serve the food in better plates and utensils, but at the end it feels like an authentic Chinese street-food ambiance, with delicious food and very reasonable price. Highly recommended!

The food was decent, but the experience was disappointing. The male server seated us at a table near the main entrance, which made it very cold every time the door opened. When we asked to be moved to a table in the back, instead of accommodating us, he told us we’d have to go back on the waitlist—even though we had already waited 30 minutes to be seated

Pretty packed especially around 7 and 8. skewers tastes great. The lamb skewer is so-so, others are good, mushroom is also good. 锅包肉 is must try. Better than their skewers.

Very heavy seasoning and very salty. You can't taste the meat itself. You can't even smell the aroma of charcoal fire.

Some of them are quite unique. The cold noodles are really good. The mutton skewers feel like fried skewers and really taste bad. The hand-pulled ribs are good and taste good! The chicken rack sauce buns have a strong taste, sour sauce, a very strange feeling! Is the cold dish or something okay? Won't come again!

Parking: I feel like there aren't many parking spaces. I went there in the afternoon and it was okay.
