BBQ Box (Bugis)

Rating: 4.2 / 5 stars Comfy ambience at a good location. Skewers don’t look costly on first look, but adds up real quickly once the other à la carte items like noodles and meat dishes are in the mix. Spent about $90 for two persons, this includes three draft Kirin beers, about 10 skewers and a bowl of spicy dumplings. • Spicy dumplings: seasoning mix was okay — good amount of spice, sourness, and numbness. However, the dumplings were bang average frozen products. • Meat skewers: fresh meats cooked right. However, found that they were somewhat barely warm when they arrived and had to depend on the heating plate to warm them up before consumption. • Chicken wings: felt like they were factory made and not something I’d pay that much for. • Beer.. was beer. Fresh, due to the high frequency of orders. The draft beers should be ordered with the buy 2 free 1 promo, else it’s borderline expensive. While quality was fine, I somehow feel that I’ve overpaid for the experience as a whole. Appreciate the slightly warm and non-robotic service.

Folks are efficient and attentive. Generally, most of the items are delicious. Price point is reasonable.a wide variety of choices as well. Location is conveniently opposite bugis junction. Honestly, a good place to dine in and hang with the friends.

Dropped by for a late lunch around 3pm and was pleasantly surprised. The place was less crowded, which made for a relaxed dining experience. Service was attentive and friendly, and the BBQ food quality was top-notch, fresh ingredients, well-marinated meats, and great grill control. Highly recommend coming around 3+ if you prefer a quieter setting with excellent service and consistently high BBQ standards.

Had an amazing BBQ experience! The meats were perfectly grilled and incredibly juicy, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. A special shoutout to the service crew, especially 阿阳, who took such great care of us throughout the meal. Truly excellent service that made the evening even more enjoyable!

I was there to have a dinner with my son. The queue was long and there was a QR Code at the doorway to get a queue no. My first experience at this restaurant was good. The way they serve the food was interesting. I was glad to be there to try.

Excellent skewer eatery. Interesting find as the quality of the food exceeded expectations. The spicy cucumber is one of a kind that is so tasty that I order 2 of that. It goes very well with the Japanese rice. The iberico pork is soft and well marinated. The rest of the meat variety is generally above average. The toasted bread is another interesting food that is slighted sweetened with goes well with the rest of the meat. Service is prompt and good overall. The place is also clean and well kept.

Very nice 串串 place. Must tried: toast bread, potato, grilled honey pineapple, dongfen with enoki! Use grabdine to pay got 15% off! Atmosphere abit noisy but is fine. Nice and quick service

Had an excellent dining experience at BBQ Box Bugis. The food was freshly prepared, well-seasoned, and served hot. The skewers were especially flavorful, with a good variety to choose from. The staff were friendly, attentive, and efficient, even during peak hours. Ordering was smooth and the waiting time was reasonable. The overall environment was clean and comfortable, making it a great place to enjoy a casual meal with friends. Definitely one of the better BBQ spots in the area. Highly recommended, and I will surely be back again!

BBQ Box is a restaurant which is known for Chuanr 串儿 (Chinese style barbecued skewers) . Recently it has expanded its Bugis outlet, which is now located right inside of the Bugis MRT station. The restaurant also have 2 other outlets in Singapore, one in Geylang and another in Chinatown. There is free WIFI with password provided on tissue box on the table. Mini bottles of mouth wash available at the sink to refresh one's mouth after the strong flavoured meal. The toilet was quite hippie looking with lock on. There are bins provided by the table side for one to throw the shells. For starters, we had Dry Soya Bean Cake Floss 红油干豆腐丝 (S$6.80++) It was shredded bean curd skin, marinated in a spicy chilli oil mixture. Refreshing and peak up the appetizing. and Grilled Oyster 碳烤生蚝 (S$18.80). The fat juicy oyster was served topped with a chilli garlic mixture. Yummy. The Chuanr were served over a griller to keep warm. Grilled Pork Sausage 烤猪肉脯香肠 (S$1.60++) Looked dry but tasted not bad. Grilled Shisamo 日本多春鱼 (S$3.20++/ 3pcs) Lots of roe in the fish. Grilled Sweet Corn 烤玉米 (S$1.60++) Juicy and sweet. Grilled Romaine Lettuce 烤油麦菜 (S$1.30++) The vegetables was well char grilled with a smoky taste, but I felt the seasoning a tab too much here, although it tasted alright when washed down with beer. Grilled Pleurotus Eryngii 烤杏鲍菇 (S$1.50++) The mushroom was soft and juicy. Grilled Tentacles of Squid 碳烤鱿鱼须 (S$5.80++) Chewy and smoky. Grilled Fresh Prawn 烤鲜虾 (S$1.60)++) Juicy and fresh. Chicken Mid-Wings 吊炉鸡中翅 (S$2.20++) Juicy and meaty. Grilled Beef (leg meat) 牛肉串 (S$1.00++) Juicy and meaty. Grilled Mutton (leg meat) 羊肉串 (S$1.00++) I felt that the mutton was quite tough to chew. Cajun Roasted Chicken Mid-Wings 奥尔良鸡中翅 (S$2.20++) The version of mid-wings was much more flavourful with a more spicy taste, compared to the normal flavour. Grilled Bread 烤面包片 (S$1.00++) We like it so much that we ordered another round. Served hot, it was nicely browned and crisp, with a buttery taste, sprinkled with sugar and spices. Addictive and kind of reminding us of an old school taste. There were various condiments on the table to add extra flavours to the food : vinegar, soy sauce, chilli sauce and raw garlic ( to thin the blood after having the high cholesterol barbecued food). Don't forget to order icy cold beer to go with the food. We had Lao Te Beer 青岛嶗特啤酒 (S$5/ 600ml) from Qing Dao 青岛, China , which was recommended by the staff. It was light and refreshing. The star dish was Special Seafood Combo 海鲜大咖 (S$88.80++/ small). I was surprised that there was so many ingredients in the seafood combo, ranging from abalone, scallop, crawfish 小龙虾, prawn, squid, lotus root, quail egg, black fungus, potato, to bean curd skin 豆腐皮. I felt that the spicy broth in the dish was toned down to suit the local taste bud. After finishing the seafood in this dish, we had the remaining broth topped up with more broth and some handmade noodles. It was delicious having the noodles with just the broth in it. Overall the food was yummy. Served in little sticks, I found that one can really eat alot.
