" Had a delightful evening with friends here! I've missed authentic barbeque from my home country, and Northern China BBQ met my expectations! The flavors are vibrant, and the skewers are a fun way to share a meal. Service was decent; a few hiccups on timing, but the staff was friendly. I'm definitely keen on making another visit soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Northern China BBQ last Saturday night with a group of friends and we had a blast! The skewers were the highlight for us all, especially the lamb. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, which made our experience even better. The flavors were on point, reminiscent of the street food I tasted during my trip to Beijing. The only downside was the wait for the food, but it was worth it. We’ll definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been here a couple of times now and overall, it's a great experience! The skewers are always fresh, but the portion sizes can be a bit small for the price you pay. Still, the flavors are what make up for it—a truly authentic Chinese BBQ experience. The staff is friendliness itself, and the atmosphere is cozy yet lively. I might suggest they work on the wait time for food a little bit, but all in all, I'm happy to recommend it and will return! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who loves exploring various dining experiences, Northern China BBQ ranked high on my list! The authenticity shone through each dish—so reminiscent of northern Chinese street food. The skewers were not only flavorful but beautifully grilled. I must confess, the service did take a bit longer than I'd prefer, but the end result was so satisfying. Just be prepared to probably spend a little more for a fulfilling meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Northern China BBQ is legit! I was missing the street food culture of China and this restaurant hits the spot! Every skewer we ordered was perfectly seasoned and grilled. My favorites were the pork ribs and the chicken heart—they were incredible! The service was pretty attentive, though we did have to wait longer than anticipated for our food. The ambiance is nice, making it a perfect spot for friends to gather and enjoy good food together! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was eager to try Northern China BBQ after hearing such great things, and it did not disappoint! The pork and lamb skewers were perfectly grilled and the cumin seasoning was on point! The atmosphere was vibrant, albeit a bit noisy due to how busy it was that night. Perhaps the only downside is that drink menu could use a bit more selection. Overall, fantastic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Northern China BBQ is a hidden gem! I tried the duck tongue, and it was surprisingly flavorful! The skewers were tasty and allowed us to sample various dishes. The ambiance captures the essence of a lively BBQ spot! While the wait for the food was longer than expected, it definitely met the expectations in terms of flavor and quality. Looking forward to going back! " (*Curated Review*)
