This is a great place to grab skewers in this area. Ordering is very easy, and you can do it all on your phone after scanning the QR code. We got a variety of skewers and my wife tried the cold noodle dish. The lamb skewers were my favorite, specifically the special lamb skewer. The meat was very tender compared to the normal lamb skewer. The service here is very fast and the food also arrives very quickly. read more

Food is delicious. It is a good place to have a fun with your friends and family. The service is good too!

First time to try YunNan style bbq and we love it. The portion is big and the price is not expensive at all. The yunnan style beef and lamb were great. The stir fried noodles were also good and we liked it. The service was good and the restaurant is clean great place to hangout with friends and drink. read more

Un-gatekeeping another good skewer place in Rowland Heights. Everyone goes to Little Skewer but I honestly think Lao Yan BBQ is better. The meat comes in bigger pieces and it's so tender. They don't lie about their spice either so only go for medium if you love spicy food. Mild is more than enough. I recommend ordering the Dongbei cold noodles on the side to refresh your palette. I would tell you my favorite skewers but I genuinely loved them all. If you're curious, this is what we ordered: beef tendon, house special lamb skewers, grilled chicken skin, chicken crispy bones, lamb skewers, beef skewers, grilled squid tentacles, grilled oysters, grilled king oyster mushrooms, and grilled steamed buns. We also got enoki mushrooms and special malatang on the side to share in addition to the skewers and it was super flavorful. The food came out in batches and the worker seemed kind of nonchalant but I didn't mind since the food was good. read more

Really like how chill this spot it! They open until 12 and sometimes have a bogo beer deal that is too good to pass up! The only thing is sometimes they run out of ingredients for certain skewers so we had to order other things to replace. The gizzard and lamb skewers are pretty good, but the malatang really surprised me! I really like the flavor and it actually has a little mala flavor because of the peppercorn so if you like that I recommend! read more

I dined here with my nephew and we ended up loving this place. This restaurant is located in Rowland Heights and let me tell you that it's worth the drive. We ordered a bunch of things such as fresh tofu skewers, beef skewers, lamb skewers, eggplant, potatoes, scallops, sausage fried rice and yunan noodles. The skewers were absolutely delicious! They were perfectly seasoned and grilled, and packed with lots of flavors. Equally delicious were the eggplant, potatoes and scallops. We ate them with the sausage fried rice. We got so full that we ended up having the noodles to go. Place is clean with lots of seating. Service was fast. We were served by a friendly lady named Tiffany who answered our questions regarding the menu. read more

Huge fan of skewers and glad to find a place with freshly grilled lamb skewers that's not at a night market. Tuesday-Thursday lamb skewers are BOGO. They cook it in the back and we keep them warm under a wax candle on the table. Good seasoning & spicy & authentic. I also liked the fatty beef fried rice. A little sweet flavor and small chunks of grilled beef. I'd recommend the beef fried rice over the yunnan friend noodles, it wasn't anything special. I'd come back for their food but their service was nonexistent. They speak little English here & the server didn't seem to want to help us. But ordering and getting utensils are all self service, little interaction is necessary. read more

I don't know how cheap any restaurant can be to not have soap in their bathroom. It was stocked with HAND SANITIZER as soap in both men and women restrooms. I'm comparing this to GAO's Crab down the street too which has skewers and more and their food, vibes and service were way better. Food was OK. They didn't have Stinky Tofu, Wontons, kids meal like GAO's. Fried rice was good though and seasoning on skewers were decent. Beef skewers got a little hard after a while. Only good thing were cheaper oysters and scallops compared to GAO's. read more

Found this hidden gem at 8:30 pm because chubby skewers line was way beyond our expectations lol. Glad that we looked around and found this new place because they taste good and not too smelly because they cooked all the skewers in the kitchen. Located in one of busiest Colima plazas, this store was at a location where it used to be Mr Bossam's. Their seasoning is awesome, they don't have extra seasoning like other places, which is pros and cons because too much is not good for you either lol. Food came out quick but you have to be make sure if you order a lot, they don't really say which one is which. Old school Chinese pop songs were played, which I like. I like their ordering system because everyone just scan the QR code and online order it to our table. Parking could be very competitive because this plaza is always busy. read more

We recently tried this spot in Rowland Heights, and they had such a huge variety of bbq skewers we went a little overboard with our order Not only do they have bbq, they have several other dishes that compliment the grilled items perfectly. We tried: BBQ - Leeks, oyster mushroom, potato, tofu skin w/ veggies, house special lamb, chicken wings, beef, king of kings sausage, pork belly, and enchanting giant squid We got everything medium spicy for a nice kick Non BBQ Dongbei Cold Noodles Yunnan Fried Rice Noodles Cucumber Dipping Sauce Shenyang Cauliflower We took some risks because we didn't know what some items were on the menu, but we loved everything we got. The cucumber dipping sauce turned out to be cucumber sticks served with a miso-type fermented sauce for dipping and it was so tasty. Help me out if I'm wrong, but maybe the Shenyang Cauliflower is mislabeled on the ordering system? I don't think there was any cauliflower in there, and the picture was a plate of veggies. It looked good and what came out matched the photo - variety of pickled spicy cucumber, daikon, and carrots kind of like kimchi. So refreshing! Definitely get some noodles here - the cold noodles offset the heat from the bbq nicely. The Yunnan noodles look quite simple but really pack a surprising amount of flavor. read more

Why isn't this place full everyday? The food was great and the service was speedy. Are we just culturally inferior to the Chinese? Perhaps this amazing culinary experience is what they see as everyday street food. incredible. read more

We ended up here because we were walking around the Yes Plaza looking to try something new. We saw it was their soft opening so thought we'd try it. There were no promotions for the soft opening. Skewers were seasoned well and we really enjoyed the tendon skewer! The service was very much "figure it out yourself". The skewers are actually cooked when they come out so the display just has two tea light candles underneath. I wish the display was more useful and kept the skewers hot. The interior is still the previous restaurant's design and they even use the chopsticks and plates. With all of the delicious skewer places in RH, we won't be back. read more

We were greeted by a cute kid. He told us his grandfather owned the business and that he's happy to help out & translate for his family. Already, points for raising a good son. Anyways, we got mushroom skewers, grilled leeks, oysters, pork and beef skewers. All were grilled to perfection and nicely seasoned. If you're looking for spice, this place will definitely deliver. Would come again for the great and quick service and good food. I hope this business flourishes! read more

Delicious skewers and good service. Will definitely come back again. The lamb and chicken cartilage skewers are so good

The variety is great too - from beef, lamb, chicken, seafood, and even veggies, everything was fresh and grilled just right. I especially loved the little brush of seasoning they use that keeps every bite bold without being overwhelming. Service was quick, and even when it got busy, skewers kept coming out hot and consistent. Prices are fair for the quality, and it definitely feels like you're getting the real street BBQ experience without hopping on a plane to China. read more

We came at 5pm, when we were the only customers. Food was prepared quickly, and was delicious. We recommend paying up for the extra seasoned options if you feel like treating yourself.

Food is good, well marinated! Terrible service, order pickup from their app without realizing that we had to wait for over 35min and when my sister came to ask how long it would take for them to be ready for my order. She was ignored by the staff. They do not even look at her when she just stands in front of them. After that, when I came back again to ask, still no response from them. Never come again, so disappointed!!!!!! read more

Lao Yan BBQ has a very high potential, however, they're not meeting that potential. The menu is very extensive, with lots of variety of skewers, seafood, noodles, and more. The ordering system is online, and ended up being quite slow. We ordered some skewers, which took about 25 minutes to arrive. You would think skewers would be fast, that's what we thought too. We expected to be barbecuing the skewers on the cook set in front of us. The skewers were decent, but they were only warm, when everyone wants hot skewers. The crawfish were absolutely delicious though. The setting inside was also very modern and quite well done, only the music was too loud. Overall this skewer restaurant had good food, but just tried to do too much, which is why their service was very slow. They clearly haven't figured their logistics and operations out yet. read more
