    Beautiful interior
    Cresse M.

    This restaurant is very close to our house but its our first time trying it. The interior is very beautiful! I didn't expect it as we entered the restaurant Yoj have to order through the QR code o. Each table. There was an older couple who came before we left and try didn't like the idea of ordering throught the phone. I think that's one disadvantage of electronic ordering. J think the seniors should be considered too. The food is really good! The skewers were all tasty: beef, lamb, chicken with pineapple and chicken gizzard. I didn't like the vegetable skewer. The wrapper was like paper. The eggplant with garlic and the cucumber salad were so good! Definitely a must try! The cold noodle was delicious too! Left the restaurant so full! We will definitely be back!

    We came to here to celebrate Mother's Day, and it wasn't too crowded. We ordered quite a few different skewers, including chicken gizzard, beef, lamb, and veggies. One thing I really like about this place was the seasoning was flavorful without being too salty that you could actually tasted the meats flavor. Highly recommended!

    Honestly, I'm such a fan now!!! this skewer place is so good!! the flavoring is still on point and it's still fresh. You have to get the spicy noodle as well !!! service is super kind and friendly. It's super clean inside as well. We would definitely come back again.

    We had been craving some bbq while in the area that wasn't the standard kbbq. Ever since we tried Chinese style bbq skewers last year, we definitely wanted to try more, Dynasty bbq came up on Yelp and seemed quite reasonable in price and serving size. When you enter and get seated, you will be prompted to go on the url code at the table to pick your items. While I understand that this is the new way for restaurants to serve guests post-covid, the vast menu items you have to scroll through makes me long for physical menus of the past - but that's just my boomer take for the day. There were a bunch of other items like rice and noodle dishes that looked interesting to pair with the meats, but we were only craving bbq so we skipped out on the carbs. We ordered a BUNCH of skewers, from the standard beef, lamb, pork belly to chicken skin and a fried quail. All of the skewers had the same type of dried chili powder spice seasoning mix so unfortunately there wasn't too much of a diversity in flavor profile but on the flip side, it allowed us to focus more on enjoying the meat quality itself (this is where rice or noodles would definitely help cut through the richness). All of the meats were incredibly well-cooked and charred. It is on the drier side, so be aware if you are looking for a juicier, plumper cut of meat that some other restaurants have. Paired with the Chinese vinegar, soy sauce, and chili oil, they were super delectable. My personal favorites were the pork belly, chicken skin, and beef. We had some leftovers to go and the staff provided us some extra sauce to go so that's a big plus. Great food here and definitely will be back to try more of the other menu items for the full experience.

    The flavor on the skewers is perfectly fragrant and delicious. My favorite is the beef because they're so juicy! The noodles were also yummy but I would recommend ordering that first since we got a bit full from the skewers. This place is easy to order with your eyes and not with your stomach Even though you order from your phone, the staff is diligent and the ambience is calming.

    Great food cooked to perfection! Service was prompt and attentive. The skewers came out fast and delicious! Good prices and very nice inside! Will come again

    After Chef Liu closed, I had to find a new skewer spot which was a struggle to find a place of the same quality. I absolutely love Dynasty BBQ! To me, it's better quality than Ace King BBQ, but to each their own. Sometimes this location has live music, which is cool. - I've only encountered them twice in coming here. The skewers are well balanced with meat and fat. So juicy! Service is not anything to complain about, so I'm content with that. There's another location in San Mateo or Burlingame, which is just as good too!

    First of all, this place got the ambiance down! I seriously felt like I'm in one of those old Chinese kungfu temples or something. With that said, seating is kinda limited. Place isn't huge. Food was good, food was decent. It did take forever to get our food after ordering it. I legit thought they forgot our orders. Parts of the first order came when we were getting our 2nd order of food. If food came out faster then I would give it another star

    Tried this spot out with my friends. They took a while to notice us enter but let us pick any table we wanted. Ordered through a QR code online and everyone can pick what they want. They bring the sticks out already cooked. The heating tray on the table is just to keep it warm. The skewers are pretty good. Everything seems to be caked on with the same spice blend regardless of what it was. The beef, chicken pineapple, enoki mushrooms, and a choy were my favorites. Pretty good overall and easy to eat and share with friends. Main complaint is I wish the food came out hotter. All the temperatures of the skewers were about lukewarm so it did not seem super fresh and the warming platter doesn't help much since there is just a few tea candles under it.

    Dynasty BBQ now has a few locations in the Bay Area, and the Newark location was recently named one of the best Chinese restaurants in the country by Yelp. This was my first time trying Chinese skewers--we got 18 in total, plus their cold cucumber salad and spicy rice noodles--and each bite, infused with their signature spice mix, was bursting with flavor. The decor felt very authentic, but I couldn't help feeling the price was a bit steep for what I expected to be a more premium experience.

    A choy, beef, lamb, fish tofu, man tou, beef tendon

    Really solid skewer joint in central Fremont with lowkey vibes and friendly staff! It is actually renamed to Dynasty BBQ now but google maps still says Oyama. The seasoning on the A choy was really good it didn't taste watered down at all from the vegetable. It is not that spicy either it is more savory even though there are chili flakes. In order of my favs for the meats: lamb, special lamb, beef, fish tofu = beef tendon I would definitely recommend getting the lamb and beef skewers they have a nice bit of fat in them for a melt in your mouth texture. The seasoning is yummy and savory - the meat quality is quite high. Would be nice to get more spice and aromatics in the seasoning or add an option for that. The appetizers we tried (cucumber / potato) salad were good too. Nice seasoning and good textures! The staff were also super accommodating my friend has a peanut allergy and they double checked with each order to make sure the right precautions would be taken. They also let us get a separate grill pan to avoid cross contamination.

    Dynasty BBQ is located in a small strip mall. The place used to be called Oyama BBQ. Parking seems to be OK. Not sure during peak times. Elegantly decorated with antique Chinese furniture. The chairs are not the most comfortable of chairs. I should know, growing up my parents had the same kind of furniture. Order via QR code on your table. The great thing is that they skewers can be customized to not be spicy. What's the use, you say? Well, my wife cannot eat spicy foods. So I asked that they omit it from some of the skewers. They however played it safe and did our whole order. No problem, it was still seasoned well with cumin and other spices. *Beef Skewers (4/5) - tender yet firm enough to know you were chewing beef. *Beef Tendon (4/5) - I like tendon so this was all my choice. Firm and chewy. *A-Choy (4/5) - wilted and charred slightly but still had a nice crispness. *Chicken Wings (3.5/5) - lightly seasoned bit cooked well. Support your local business.

    Good vibe and fast serving. Staff is friendly. We had a party of 16 with adults, teens and toddlers, all walked out full and satisfied. Tasted good and not over grilled. We also had beer, juice and soda.

    Hi! Excited to try this place. I'm hoping to come but my friend is vegan. Are the veggie skewers vegan or do they also have animal products?

It was a bit unorganized and people walking around but not sure where to seat us. We finally got seated and had to wait a while and waved down people a few times to get out orders in. It is okay, I am here for the good, not the service after all. Right? I was disappointed. The oyster pancake was extremely fishy. The rice cake (well not really a cake but inverted sticky rice cup) was cold and where is the pork floss? The chicken rolls were decent, the best dish. I didn't try the fried intestines but was told there were okay. The stinky tofu not really stinky. I think it is because we are in the US and many restaurants stopped selling this due to complaints. I can take that but the dipping sauce was lacking with no garlic flavor. The other items were nothing to write home about. We were waiting for our stir fried seafood noodles and finally waved down someone only to find out it is out, but no one told us. So we ordered pork chop bento as we saw the next table had one and the portion was amazing. Well, someone must have eaten our order in the kitchen as ours was half of the size as what we saw from the other table. The decor was very simple and as with most Asian restaurant it was noisy. But I was there for the food so no problem. But the food didn't deliver.

Most people, local and from afar, come here for their 3-dish menu. When we first started eating here more than a decade ago, it was $19.50. But with inflation surging once again, the price has gone up to $38.99, which is still reasonable compared to other Cantonese restaurants in the East Bay. Our most recent visit took place on 11/15/2025. After attending the Bolo Yeung "You Are Next!" Autograph Signing Event at the Great Mall, four of us came here for dinner. It was busy when we walked in at around 6:20pm. The place was 90% full, with many others waiting for their takeout orders. We scored the last round table. The friendly tall waitress came by to say hi and dropped out a couple menus. (For those of you who don't know who Bolo is, he's the original "Beast of the East" and was featured in movies such as "Enter the Dragon", "Bloodsport", and "Double Impact".) We ordered a total of seven dishes. The quality was good as usual. The standouts were the scrambled eggs with shrimp and yellow chives (soft and creamy inside), Peking pork chops (crispy, meaty pork chops perfectly coated in a tangy sauce/best in the East Bay), and the bean curd strips and pork stir-fry. The tall waitress provided excellent service. She talked to us like family and was very efficient. She's been with this restaurant for a long time and if I recall correctly, she is mainly doing this for kicks (and some spending money). If you want some good Chinese food that doesn't break the bank, this is the place to be. Still 4 stars.

The restaurant looked full, but we were seated immediately at a small table. The service was friendly, informative and quick with the food. We wanted to try a bunch of different things, but our waitress actually told us we wouldn't be able to finish the first four dishes we ordered. She was right; we appreciated her help and took boxes to go. The food was great and my friend flew back to Connecticut happy. In February, my wife threw a bridal shower and decided to use Good Neighbor to provide all the food. She went to order on her lunch break and met with the owners to choose the dishes. They were helpful and informative. The day of the shower, they helped me load all the boxes into the vehicle, using a cart for transport. The important thing to note was the cost was reasonable for feeding 20 people. The food was enjoyed by all the guests and we had leftovers for dinner! You just can't beat that today. There's a ton of parking and they treat all their customers well. Only thing to note is they are closed on Tuesdays.

Don't let the fair pricing fool you, it is a really nice restaurant!! The interior is incredibly clean & well maintained, it's a whole experience having dinner there. After dinner (if you have children, this is key) they give you a scoop of ice cream, which is included with your dinner / lunch. I took my little daughter there once, for lunch, during daddy-daughter day. She REALLY enjoyed it. They have great meat options & the noodles, vegetables, etc - you go grab yourself, buffet style. So you go load a plate with whatever you'd like to add to your cook pot, along with the meat. They have little soft boiled quail eggs that you can add to your pot - HIGHLY recommend!! They have, if I recall, 4 or 5 different soup bases to choose from. I've had three thus far & they have all been incredibly good. PLEASE NOTE - the spicy one is no joke, I am a spicy food connoisseur & I will admit, even on my "0-10" scale, that red spicy soup base was easily an 8. Interestingly enough albeit very spicy, the red soup base has excellent flavor; in other words it's not just pure pain & terror & capsaicin overdose... It's spicy AND very flavorful. Give these guys a try!! We will definitely be returning, although this has to be more of a quarterly thing. As eating hot pot with little kids is NOT easy for parents - constantly making sure they don't spill boiling soup on themselves. What we did was asked for a bowl / plate; so we could serve the children the various meats, noodles, vegetables after they were cooked... Also to prevent the children from sticking spoons into a vigorously boiling pot. (SAFETY NOTE - the cook pots are directly in the table, built-in cooktops. So be vigilant with small children. The wait staff will give you a tutorial on how to increase/decrease the heat on the burner and/or how to shut it off when you're done cooking. Aside from my concern of the children burning themselves, it is an EXCELLENT experience for kids nevertheless).
