No real misses here. Food was overall pretty good. Standouts were: Enoki Mushroom foil bowl - Super garlicky and excellent Liangpi - Cold dish packed with lots of sesame flavour in the sauce House beer - I usually go for unique beers so when I see some house brew, I try it. Best decision as the beer was awesome. A light lager with a hint of tea. Interesting combo and perfect to go with the skewers. Spice levels for dishes are customizable. I tend to like spicy so less spice was not quite enough for me but regular spice is perfect. Shaved ice dessert is self serve and 1 bowl is included with your meal. Simple but a tasty finish to cool you down. Beers are cheap, pitchers are $13. Service is quick. Come early or suffer some wait times. Smaller parties of 4 or less seem to be less of a wait. Would definitely return! read more

An almost 'experience' of a resturant which really rushes you when you step in with the 2000s posters and intriguing choice of decor. Make sure you check out the washroom and the posters. Food wise the skewers were great, the lamb ones were good, but I thiunk pork belly were my favorite though it does feel like the skewers were fried as opposed to grilled. Would have been better if we asked for spicy but we couldn't as we had our 5 year old with us. While the skewers were good, my favorite dish was the cold noodles, the fried potatoes (which were essentially chips), and the fried sweet and sour pork. Sweet and sour pork were classic north eastern flavor a crisp drenched in sauce. The chips were crispy and was a good palate changer to take a break between the skewers which sometimes had similar flavors, but was most pleasently surprised by the cold noodles. The cold noodles were a tad different than the classic north-eastern cold noodle as it had a bit more of a kick and the texture/crunch from fried peanuts. One of my all time favorite cold noodles. read more

A friend brought me to this place for dinner. Was told it was not too expensive and you indeed get full. However, it ended still being about $40 plus per person.. best to go as a group. Their pitcher beer is super cheap at $10 and the decor has a nice 80's vibe without being too overpowering. They play music videos on their tv screen and sometimes, the music kind of suck, with some Chinese electronic music on repeat. The decor is beautiful with beautiful lights and adding the Christmas decoration enhance the room. THey even have a few private rooms with round table. We ordered a number of dishes and I thought everything was well made. Everything was brought out fast and my favourite were the lamb chop :) The food was still hot and pipingl There is free small mango sago dessert and it was limited to one per person. THe dessert it seems it was very watery. Also, there was supposed to be another dessert but they ran out. Overall, I wouldn't mind visiting again if I ever need to satisfy my craving for Northern Chinese food. read more

The interior is cute- the 80s or 90s Chinese theme. Service was alright. Skewers were a bit dry for my taste, or maybe I didn't order the right items; but the rest of the items were decent. read more

3rd visit in 2 weeks. I brought my wife and sister-in-law for afternoon eats. All the skewers were good. The cripsy pork belly stir fry was excellent. If you are sensitive to spice get it less spicy or not spicy. This dish packs some heat. Beers are smooth and compliment the skewers. These bbq places are becoming more common in Scarborough. There's a free dessert station with choice of mango pudding, yogurt, and shaved ice with jelly. Definitely check them out if you are looking for drinking place with some exceptional skewers and stir fry dishes. The service is good some have limited English so sharpen your Mandarin skills. Good thing the English menu is on tablet and there's pictures. I will definitely come back for their specials. 5% cash discount available just tell them you pay cash. read more

Ordered some skewers for late night snack. Got the beef, lamb, pork skewers. All in the hot spice level. They were more mild, than spicy, and flavour wise could use more spices as the flavour was mild as well. Beef was good, but the lamb was dry, not enough fat integrated in the skewer. The pork was whatever. Far more better skewer establishments in the area. read more

New Chinese BBQ Skewer spot in Markham. Great ambiance, okay food, okay service. We had no resos and it as a Friday night so our party of 6 tried to come earlier to snag a table. We still waited about half an hour for a seat. The interior is such a vibe and has great decor that makes you feel like you're in Asia. Beer towers are cheap here so definitely should get some if you're into drinking. Got a variety of food to share for the table: meat skewers, soup, cabbage, fried pork, clams, instant noodles, pickled chicken feet, and more. The food was good/ okay but nothing really stood out to me - tasted pretty standard for a Chinese BBQ spot. After grabbing our bill and on our way out is when we found out that they had free shaved ice for dessert. It was a bummer that the servers did not tell us this when we grabbed our bill - definitely something we would have enjoyed. Overall, think this spot is okay - check it out for yourself! read more

New north east China influenced BBQ restaurant. The environment is a fusionized atmosphere of club music blasting away with a street stall mood with an old school collection of yesteryears decor. The menu is via QR code. The food is meh. The seasonings are not there and the meat quality is definitely commercial grade. The service here is lacking even though you see plenty of servers walking by but they never stop by to respond to your requests. If you are in for a cheap beer with some grilled skewers this may be up your alley but if you are to look for a place to bring your foodie friends I would think twice. read more

First time visiting here with my friend and it was pretty good experience! I really liked their interior decoration that has retro HK-China vibe :) Food was decent and they had 1.5L beer $6.99 promotion, which I really liked (got a bit tippy with that haha) Service was pretty quick too. It was Monday evening and relatively quiet (I assume) compared to weekends read more

We saw this place a while ago while at the cat hotel in the same strip mall. We finally were able to return with enough time for lunch. Great ambiance,, very clean, competitive price and decent service. The meal is ordered on an iPad. At last the pictures look like the food delivered. The food was delivered promptly , but it was the end of lunch and there were only a few tables left. We ordered the crispy pork, a variety of skewers, celery and glass noodle and spicy cabbage . All were a great value, but we think the cabbage could have been a larger portion for the $. The Dragon beer was good, it paired with the skewers well. , the selection of alcohol was limited, but adequate, There was only one waitress on duty and she was very busy, we ordered on the iPad, she was available for questions. Good service overall. We've been looking for a decent place for after movies or a late meal and this fits. We will be coming again. I would recommend this place. It a good deal. read more

Love this place! Definitely one of our go to late night spots since it opened! For food, the usual is the pork sausages, beef/lamb skewers, and for sure you have to try the dough drop soup! Also love that dessert is included! Tried the shaved ice, the mango sago and cocktail fruits. Mango sago is definitely the fave! Super convenient how they have a fridge full of variety of drinks that we can just get up and grab. Overall, recommend to check it out! read more

Came here on a Friday night (between 7:30-8PM) with a few friends and I was worried that it was going to be really busy. There was a booth by the entrance for a waitlist but there was no one waiting ahead of us so we were lucky to be seated pretty quickly! There is an ipad they give you to order for the table which was pretty straightforward to use. The prices I would say are pretty average for a skewer spot, and I personally found it to be a bit on the noisier side simply because of the larger groups of people around my table. There are many neon signs around the restaurant, which was also a bit overstimulating for myself. The food itself was great! Absolutely loved the lamb and pork belly skewers, and the chicken skin was super crispy. Overall, everything was well seasoned and there were no complaints there. There is a side bar area where you can choose a small dessert, and also get to make your own small cup of shaved iced, and there were toppings such as mango syrup and condensed milk, and I saw other people had lychee jelly on theirs as well! However, the staff didn't tell us about it, and I only found out through previous reviews from other people. If I didn't search for reviews myself, I never would have known that was there. When you want to pay, you take your bill up to the front counter and pay there. I had previously looked on their website and saw they had a points/rewards program so I signed up for it before going, but I was never asked about it during our visit at all, and they didn't seem to promote it anywhere which was kind of disappointing as I did want to collect reward points for future visits. TIP: there is a post on their instagram page with an amazing promotion where you like the post and show it to the waitress and you can get a 1.5L container beer for $6.99 and a choice of 1 plate (6 skewers) of either beef or lamb skewers for $3.99 (only applicable for one $6.99 1.5L pitcher and one of the $3.99 skewers per table). I'm unsure of when their deal ends but I would definitely hop on this chance while it lasts! read more

I was trying to find different skewer places and thought we'd give this a try. I would recommend coming with more than two people, as the portions of other foods are large. We didn't order much, but it was good, and they had dessert available on the other side (closer to the cashier) and drinks to get yourself from the refrigerator up front. The disadvantage is that they mainly speak Mandarin, which we do not speak, but the menu was on the phone, so ordering was easier. The atmosphere, I can't say, as we went in the afternoon so it wasn't loud (unsure how it is at night). Overall, I will come back as there are other foods I'd like to try, but the portions are too big. read more

This restaurant is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. Checked out this place for lunch today. I walked in with no expectations and I was pleasantly surprised. First of all the ambiance was pretty cool and vibrant. All ordering is done on the iPad which makes it convenient. We ordered the lamb skewers, beef skewers and beef tendon skewers. All were seasoned well and pretty yummy. We also ordered the fried rice, fried instant noodles, tofu and garlic clams. There was a lot of garlic in the clams and I enjoyed this dish as well. The others were ok. For seven people, the bill came to around $110 pre tip. Not bad. You also get a small complimentary dessert at the end. One per person. You get a choice of mango sago and what I think was some kind of mango mousse. This was a nice touch and added to the dining experience. I look forward to returning to try some other skewers. read more

this is a Chinese northern style BBQ restaurant recently opened in the old location for 渔人码头。 because it is new, it is so popular and when we arrived Friday afternoon 5pm, it's full packed, hugh lineup and we were 13 in the line. Waited for 40 min to get seated. Foods served quickly though. The good part is they have a free shaved ice bar that you can self serve with other desserts, which my kids really enjoy. Bbq is average quality, beef is a No. other than that everything was good. read more

Came here late at night to eat. Fortunately, we didn't have to wait to get seated. The food tasted good and dishes came out hot, which I appreciated. Service was okay. The atmosphere/vibe of the restaurant was nice and they had lots of decorations inside. A good spot to eat friends and family, and they can accommodate large parties as well. They close at 2am so it can be a good spot if you're finding a restaurant to eat late at night. read more

My friend and I went here to eat during game 7 of Leafs vs Panthers. I had brought my iPad so I could watch the game and asked for the wifi password. The server said the wifi doesn't work today and refused to give out the password. As you can see, this is their iPad for the menu and also POS machine is connected to wifi. She flat out lied. When I asked what are the ingredients in the cocktails because they are in Chinese and I can't read Chinese, she said everything has whiskey. I asked for non whiskey and she said to go to the front of the store to order. Pretty sure their Sex on the Beach is not whiskey based. After we paid and got up to leave,, we saw the dessert aisle and saw people walk to it and asked if it was included and why didn't they tell us. She just said well everyone knows it's free. How would everyone know? It's our first time. WORST SERVICE EVER! read more

Would give it a 0 star if I could. I went last week and the food was cold, and some of the chicken skewers was slightly pink. When I brought it up to the server, they didn't give me a refund since it was partially eaten. Terrible service and food, much better skewer places nearby read more
