Wanted to see what type of food was served here. It's not an AYCE KBBQ spot . There is a rotating type of grill at each table. This holds the skewers over the cook area. I saw the prices were on the steep side per serving of skewers ($20++) but we were already here and didn't plan on going elsewhere. Quick and simple service: each wait staff had an electronic device to take your order. Beef skewers come 10 per order, we requested half spicy half plain. Chicken and pork skewers come 5 per order. These came out half cooked through and took just a short time on the grill to cook thoroughly. Whole lamb rib chop is 4 per order. Chive and eggs dish is delicious and seemed to be a LOT of chive- flavorful egg done to just enough firmness. Cucumber salad is a full dish, probably did not need an entire plate of it. Also good and refreshing. Rice is not included. Minimal banchan, kimchi was not the usual Napa cabbage but regular chopped cabbage. Steamed dumplings came about 15 pieces per order, simple and satisfying. Because of the grill setup at each table, a lot of leg space is extremely limited. Tables are slightly tight, I could not fit my feet on the floor properly and asked to be moved to the back table. Food quality was alright, but I think quite overpriced. Probably better for groups out for some drinks, not so much a meal? Each skewer is at most 1 ounce per portion. So maybe 6 or more skewers per person. For the price we paid, I'm sure I've had better quality and amount of beef, etc...at other places. Smaller parking lot and there are signs designated for laundromat only. At...
Read moreCame here for a late lunch with friends because I have been craving skewers and heard of their self-cooking skewers. They have a decent sized parking lot when we came so didn't have to look. We got seated fast once we walked in and the employees were friendly.
We ordered the lamb skewers 10pc, beef skewers 10pc, pork skewers 5pc, bread rolls 2pc, and warm noodles. They give side dishes but they were not super good. The bean sprouts were not seasoned enough and the coleslaw was meh. They do refill them for free if you ask. It took around 10 minutes for the food to be served and we began cooking. The rotating cooking machine was cool but the fire was uneven so the meat would cook fast on the middle and not the side. The fried buns were good though. The warm noodles were not bad, just spicy.
As for the taste, the skewer meat quality was pretty good. The seasoning was good but too bad they didn't have many sauces to dip and most of them were spicy.
Overall, the experience was pretty good but overpriced to eat skewers. I guess the meat is bigger than other skewers but the smaller skewers are more flavorful. Would recommend coming here to try it once but that is about it unless you really like the self cooking...
Read moreIm so glad this restaurant opened up in Buena Park because I used to go to Rowland Heights for lamb skewers!
First of all, the food was great. I ordered one order of lamb skewers (10 skewers), two bowls of rice, and malaxiangguo (dry hotpot). My husband and I eat like pigs, and the amount of food was enough for us. The malaxiangguo was spicy just as we like it, but it could be very spicy to some of you guys. Lamb skewers…. YUM. There were fatty parts once in a while but still amazing.
Second of all, unfortunately the price was not excellent. It was honestly a bit more expensive than I expected but since the taste was great, I would definitely go back. 10 skewers of lamb + 2 bowls of rice + 1 beer + Malaxiangguo (dry hotpot) + tip + tax = $90
Third of all, the ambiance was nice but LOUD. My husband and I had to yell at each other to communicate, decided to silently eat and go back home to talk 😂
FYI,
We went to this restaurant on Wednesday night so there wasn’t any waiting but the server told me that if you try to go on weekends, there might be 1-2 hrs of waiting!
If there is no parking, the owner told me that you can use the church parking lot that is located near the...
