Happy Tree House BBQ

I was really impressed with the service and the how fast our food came. Our food were all hot and fresh when it got to our table. Safety measures are in place and the entire restaurant is clean including the restrooms. The interior is nicely decorated. I highly recommend the Salt and Pepper Pork Ribs and the Honey Walnut Shrimps. The Beef Chowmein is a little bland and needed soy sauce and lemon for taste. Will I go back? Definitely YES.

Definitely recommend this place! They just did a grand opening and the place looks very fresh, clean and innovating. Food was piping hot and delicious and is a good bang for your dollar! The fried ice cream at the end was an interesting flavor too.

The food is excellent the staff is friendly. But that night there was a large party with children running everywhere jumping through things and sliding around screaming and yelling. It was like Chuck-E-Cheese. I don't think this was the right place for those kids to be. I think the parents should be responsible for this action and it was upsetting me and I had said something to one of the parents They Don't Really Care. There should be some sort of action taken by the restaurant saying that they need to control their children just for the responsibility

This is a newly opened Chinese BBQ restaurant. My family and I came because they had a grand opening special on WeChat which was get 50 or more shares for 50% off the bill. When paying for the bill they said they discontinued the promotion earlier in the day, without prior notice or an expiration on the promotion. I would never come back to this restaurant because I hate lying companies. If they are unwilling to honor something so simple like this then they are finding other shortcuts in their business. In addition, the food was mediocre at best. Everything is overly salty with low quality ingredients and a high price. Their service is also non-existent. On multiple occasions, we had to wave down their waiters to get their attention. I would never spend my money on a business that lies to their customers and I hope anybody that reads this decides to do the same.

The food is mediocre at best. The beef and lamb taste pretty much the same, since they use the same spices. Lamb taste good when it's piping hot, but they didn't use the grill on the table to keep it warm. Which I don't understand why they didn't light it. They used BBQ sauce on the chives, which didn't taste good at all. The fried ice cream was a big disappointment also. It's only frozen creampuffs, which I think they bought somewhere else. I'm giving 2 stars only because the service was good, but the food was a let down.

Great decorations. Chill environment. They cook inside and serve the food to you. Make sure don't order too much at once otherwise your food will get cold fast even tho they have a grill to keep it warm.

Very Slow Service- Slow wait times. Restaurant is very dis organized. If you have all evening to eat, go here. Noted during my extended stay they use frozen products and many processed items.

Good price and good parking! Just move the cones.

Happy Tree House Bbq has delicious tasting food but when I went here for dinner our food just took too long and overall the wait to get everything was hours. We came inside this place and noticed it had about six tables that were there. The thing is to even get our order, water, and even any type of service took too long. But each item that came out all at different times because some menu items cook faster than others did taste nice. It might be that this place doesn't have enough staff members and that is understandable because of Covid. Overall I did really like the food though and if you have patience and time on your hand, this is doable. My favorite fishes were the eggplant, tofu, and the clear noodle! So many items were on point with flavor, you just have to wait for it.

*3.7 stars This place was completely empty when I came in for lunch, which made me hesitate a little. But overall the food is actually good here. The skewers here are cooked and seasoned for you, they have a variety of meats to choose from. Also other entrees such as fried rice, noodles, and more. My favorite skewers here are the angus beef, the pork and sausage was okay. The only downside was that it's pretty pricey compared to other skewer places, and the quality of the meat doesn't justify for it. I probably won't come back, because there are places with better pricing and more selection on the menu. This place is located across from boiling crab, so a decent amount of parking spaces.

I was traveling from Florida to California and on my way to the Redlands I was craving The Boiling Crab. When I got to the location of the Boiling Crab, which was a strip mall, I was told I would have a 2 hour wait. I decided to go elsewhere. The strip mall was heavily Asian influenced. I ended up at the Happy Tree House because it was the least intimidating looking restaurant. The staff was friendly but the menu was overwhelming, it came in Chinese? And English but the descriptions were short and vague. I asked my server for assistance. I got a couple of beef skewers, they were delicious and very flavorful and spicy Chicken- which was really spicy but equally as great. The food was great but I was overwhelmed at the menu and wish I'd done more research or knew more Chinese

Omg... this place is the spot for some late night snacks if you like some Asian BBQ style. "Stick stick". We came here after going to Disneyland, long and happy day. We were gonna go to GUI BBQ, but there wasn't much people there. So we change our mind and went here instead. It was only like 2-3 minutes drive. We went there it wasn't crowds. They have a large open space inside. Not to mention, you can see the chef making the bbq for you. We ordered plenty of stuff to share for four of us. We order some lamb, beef, pork, bacon enoki, squid, scallop, chicken wing, and etc. Everything was delicious. They do have extra spice to add on on the side if you think it's not spicy enough. It was beyond my expectation as well. The service was fast/good, and we got our food out fast as well. Forgot to mention that if you check in on Happy Tree House BBQ, they are doing a promotion for their 1 year anniversary. They will give you a coupon for 15% off on your bill. Definitely takes advantage of that. I don't know when it will end though. I will be back here again soon... hopefully!

People here are very helpful and obliging. Also, the food is awesome. Just wish for the barbecued fish, they will have more choices (they only have see bass for the sizzling barbecue style.

Currently, almost all dishes come in single use tableware which is more waste but it's understandable considering the circumstances. At least you know it's clean for sure! I didn't get to take photos of the food but I HIGHLY recommend the beef skewers and beef chow mein. SUPER DELICIOUS!!! I also got lamb skewers, spicy chicken wings, scallops, some kind of spicy stew with fish cakes, cucumbers (cold dish), and some drinks. Lamb skewers tasted like beef but with a metallic taste. Spicy chicken wings didn't suit my tastes as I like my chicken crispy but the chicken was very soft and on some of the wings, the meat inside was very pink/red... kind of concerning. Spicy stew with fish cakes was pretty good and comes in a huge portion. I didn't taste the cucumbers but my friends seemed to like it. After eating, they give you fresh oranges for dessert! Would recommend this place to try!

Came here for the first time and this place was super yummy! There were variety of appetizers and cold dishes, noodles. and sizzling pot dishes. I got a bunch of lamb and beef skewers and grilled fish on sizzling pot. I enjoyed this place because I've been to other bbq skewer places and usually they cook the food in front of you, however, this place does not! They cook the food in the kitchen and bring it to you, which I thought was rad! All the food came out in a timely manner and service was good! I will definitely be back here in the near future! Only downside was the parking, it took me around 20-30 mins to find parking! So word to the wise, come early if you want to beat the dinner rush!

Been a fan of their numbing pepper fish for months. My husband orders it every weekend. One down side is that they're taking longer and longer to prepare nowadays It used to take 10mins, now it's usually between 20-30mins. Price has gone up a few bucks too.

I've been here about 3 times now. Once before covid and twice during covid (2020 & 2021). This place was great before covid, however I'm not sure what happened but the place has changed drastically. Upon entering the store, I was greeted by a server just casually using her phone. None of the TVs were on and it was completely empty (Sunday afternoon). I'm not sure why it was so dead but regardless, the TVs should still be on or at least have some kind of music playing during business hours. It was so quiet I could hear the toilet flushing from across the restaurant. The skewer stew is probably one of my go to items here. It comes with 2 different types of tripes on skewers and fish balls. The broth keeps the skewers piping hot throughout the entire meal and the tripes really absorbs a lot of that flavor. I would recommend ordering this. The scallop's flavor were good but not something I would order again. I order this expecting to eat scallops, however the scallops were so small and topped with so much stuff that the scallops just disappeared. It was like paying a premium for noodles and garlic on an empty scallop shell. The skewers are okay, but lacking in flavor compared to the previous times. They aren't as seasoned as before. They also removed several items from the menu which I don't understand. One my favorite items that I always ordered was the chicken gristle skewer but now instead of skewers, I'm forced to buy a chicken gristle plate for $15.95! It's not like they don't serve gristle anymore, they just want you to order the plate instead. My girlfriend use to love this place, making it her #1 skewer spot in socal. However, after the experience and prices we paid that day, we won't be coming back again. The server did mention they raised the prices but an astounding $102.71 for this amount of food is a lot more than we paid the previous time we visited (Both visits during covid, however we ordered about 1/3 more food including their crawfish for less). You can skewers with more quantity and better quality at literally any other skewer place in Rowland heights. I'm leaving 2 stars instead of 1 because I still like their skewer pot. Hopefully the owners fix the quality so that we can return here once again.

So many Chinese style BBQ restaurants popping up in this area, this one has one of the nicest decor and ambiance. We came in for an early dinner, the restaurant was packing up really fast. They serve beer and wine, the alcohol prices were a lot cheaper than other similar places so if you plan to drink this is a good spot. Menu was nice with mostly meat skewers, some seafood skewers and large plates of whole fish and crawfish. Hubby and I ordered beef, chicken skin, squid, oyster and clams BBQ items, they were very yummy. I liked the seasoning cause they weren't overly heavy like some other BBQ places. Also a big pot of huge amount of crawfish, the server didn't ask that how spicy I wanted it, I think it was a little too spicy for me. Cold dishes like cucumber and seaweed salads were good balance for the meal. Also a pitcher of Sapporo and small cold sake to wash down our food. We liked the food and service, definitely competitive in this area, I do hope this restaurant lasts cause I would like to come here from time to time!

Don't go on the day when they have singer performed, some of them sing well, but it's way tooooooo loud for me and my friend to talk. We end up just pay the bill and go somewhere else to talk. It's a shame that the food was good, but the over volume music and singer kills it. If this problem can be resolved, I believe I will be stay longer and order more food and drink. I will only come this place during the weekdays while there is no singer performing.

I was really impressed with the service and the how fast our food came. Our food were all hot and fresh when it got to our table. Safety measures are in place and the entire restaurant is clean including the restrooms. The interior is nicely decorated. I highly recommend the Salt and Pepper Pork Ribs and the Honey Walnut Shrimps. The Beef Chowmein is a little bland and needed soy sauce and lemon for taste. Will I go back? Definitely YES.

Good place for skewers and spicy fish pots. If you're looking to grab some skewers and down some beers with your pals then this place would be great for you. The bill does add up & its adds up fast so order at your own risk... 4 people here can easily reach $150. They grill the meat in the back so you dont have to worry about your clothes leaving with the smell of smoke.

It's not the real China happy tree But it's pretty close to the real thing and good taste Staff is friendly and nice

This restaurant locates in one of the busiest Asian market in rowland height. We decided to give it a try because all other places has terrible long line at Friday night. We went twice for Friday night arrives around 6:30 and there's no line. All their skewers are good, I recommend they chicken wing and Dongbei la pi (cold dish) The only one I would avoid is the A5 Waygu beef skewer, it's $8.95 per skewer, I guess they used very high quality beef like its name, but really at a chinese skewer place, it's considered very bland and too oily for me. Also too pricy Food is 5 star Service is good And no crazy wait lines I can't think of a reason not to give them 5 star Btw, not sure how long they will continue the promotion, but they do give out $25 gift card for your next visit, (drinks and tax not included thou

Bad service experience from this place.Not recommend . The management need to improve their worker how to make a better customer service experience.

I cannot believe Happy Tree House doesn't have at least 4 stars. Their food is so good!! Especially the chicken wings! So flavorful and moist. And the chicken gristle is very interesting. Usually chicken cartilage is in skewer form but they deep fry their chicken cartilage with giant red chilis. The chilis are like chips in this dish but don't be afraid. Not spicy at all. The restaurant is pretty big with plenty of seating. Definitely large party friendly. I find it to be a very good place to hangout with friends, have a few drinks, and eat delicious food. They only thing is they close early, at 9, on the dot, but I hope this changes in the near future.

My boyfriend and I love this place. We literally go every week! The service is amazing, and the food is always delicious. Love the angus beef kebobs and their new Guo Bao Rou. Their strawberry juice is also very yummy :) Very nice atmosphere as well. I would recommend trying the vermicelli with scallops, cold mung bean noodles with cucumber, their squid tentacles, and of course the guo bao rou!! My favorite place to get kebobs and good service! :)

Chinese food has come a long way. 20-30 years ago, you mostly had Cantonese or Szechuan. You used to have to be like Marco Polo and make an uncertain and eclectic journey to explore the subtly of Chinese food. Now you have restaurants like Happy Tree. They offers meat skewer similar to yakitori. The seasoning is cumin and chili peppers with the meat seared over charcoal. The cuisine is more what you find in the Northern and Western parts of China. In the north, the starches are dominated by bread and noodles, as opposed to rice. I recommend the Manto, bread toasted over the fire. Their hand pulled noodles in bone broth soup were excellent. The eggplant was tender and flavorful. The meat variety is diverse. You cannot go wrong with the shrimp, lamb, beef, and gizzards. Each skewer does have a minimum order (3-5), but they are reasonable ranging from$1.50-$2+. The environment is clean and updated.

First off, parking is horrid. You're better off taking an Uber to this center. I can't blame this restaurant for having bad parking. I arrived at 8:00 and it was packed. I left close to 10, and that's when the parking lot began to clear. So maybe that info can help you determine when to dine. Okay, as for the restaurant, I ordered the wings. They were delicious!!!! FYI, two come on a skewer so I ordered more than I needed. Cool ambience in the restaurant. Staff was very friendly and attentive. I think prices are reasonable. I will definitely come back and try other items on the menu.

Went back a second time with my parents. My 5 yr old loves this place. We ordered a plate of spicy squid, pickled cucumbers, and dried fish. It's like fish jerky. This was a surprise treat. Too bad I didn't take a picture. I don't see anyone else taking a picture of it either. They should bag it up and sell it. We all enjoyed the lamb noodle soups. We had 4 orders with different types of noodles. Really liked the simple broth. They told us it was a Northern China cuisine. It's not too oily but with enough flavor and enough light side dishes to balance it all out.

I love their food!! However, the check-in discount is kinda tricky. It can only be applied on the kebobs, BUT Not on the drinks/alcohol/fish dishes. They didn't mention it or put it on the coupon which I think its kinda sneaky. I do recommend it but just don't like how they don't explain clearly to the customers. (Like many Chinese restaurants)

The restaurant's interior is really nice and bright. We got seated and check what we want on a paper. When we were checking things on our paper we realize that you can't just buy one skewer for 1.50 you have to buy minimum 5 skewer to be 1.50. So basically one order has 5 pieces that cost 1.50 each. Some food don't required minimum orders. Over all I think the food was a bit dry and tough. The price is a bit expensive for the quality of food especially when you keep adding things. The pot of assortment meat says it's spicy and it can't be changed but it wasn't spicy at all. This place is mediocre, the only thing was really good was the scallop vermicelli, man tou bread, and the cold dish cucumber. But I wouldn't come back again for it.

ridiculous high price with low quality food. Super disappointed, don't even give a try if you have other options. Chicken wing is from frozen wings and they just put on some spices on it. Sweet and sour noodle is from Japanese frozen ramen. Does not worth me to take a picture. No pictures

My friends and I have been here several times and we love the food! They have a variety of choices including cold dish appetizers, skewers, noodle soups and sizzling pot dishes. This recent time that we went we got the cooper pot that included skewers of vessel/tripe/fish balls in a chili oil sauce, lamb/beef/chicken skin/intestines skewers that they bring out and place on a warming station at your table, cold cucumber appetizer, and the sizzling cod in chili with lotus root and bean curd skin. We also had two pitchers of beer. All of the dishes were delicious. The food came out in a timely manner and we were able to ask them if we could finish some items before they brought out other items to keep it from going cold since we were eating slowly and catching up with one another. Service is fast and friendly. Restrooms are clean. My only concern is that it is in a super popular lot and parking is super difficult to find, it takes us anywhere from 15-30mins just to find parking. I will be coming back sometime soon!

- Their food is really tasty and flavorful. My favorite are the skews pot, chicken skin and beef kabobs. A little unhappy because every time we go, the little stove with tin foil where they put my food on is always cold. Try to ask the servers about it every time, but they always just shake their head and walk away, thus,, my food gets cold after 10 minutes. - I'm taking away 1 star because of their service, the servers purposely ignored us even though they saw us waving multiple time. The first time I went, the lady gave me some attitude because I took some time to figure out what I wanted to order. - but you should check this place out, great place to hangout with your friends, great food!

My dad wanted skewers for Father's Day so, of course, I had to oblige. I assumed that every other skewer place would be absolutely packed since it's 1) Sunday 2) Dinner Time and 3) Father's Day. I ended up picking this place because it seemed like it wasn't too popular or well known, but the menu seemed alright. My family arrived at around 6:05 PM and it wasn't too busy. We were seated immediately and given a menu. (Interior is super cute btw..like lil picnic tables). We got a bunch of stuff, not realizing how huge the dishes were. Like the pickled cabbage fish...absolutely massive. It came in one of those tins that you typically cook a Thanksgiving turkey in. We also got the salt and pepper shrimp and the size of the shrimp was also pretty impressive. Same with the jellyfish cold dish: a heaping mound of food. (Too much lettuce and not enough jellyfish though). Flavor wise, everything was good! Every single item we picked was pretty decent, no misses. However, the skewers and the fish were definitely the stars of the show. I liked the beef and chicken gizzard skewers most! The spice mix they use is really tasty, but very cumin heavy (so keep that in mind if you don't like cumin). The fish was super tender and flavorful, and I liked the tang of the pickled veggies! But I do think this fish is more of an acquired taste because it's one of those ~stinkier~ dishes since pickled veggies are fermented lol Overall, would recommend. I'm surprised this place isn't more popular, to be honest. Seems like a decent place to have some skewers and beer, and the service was pretty good considering that it got pretty busy as dinner time progressed. They did forget to put in one of our skewer orders, but we were so full that we ended up canceling it anyway. The waitress was really nice and apologetic about it, though! We had a satisfactory dinner experience: good food with reasonable portions + friendly and attentive staff!

This is a newly opened Chinese BBQ restaurant. My family and I came because they had a grand opening special on WeChat which was get 50 or more shares for 50% off the bill. When paying for the bill they said they discontinued the promotion earlier in the day, without prior notice or an expiration on the promotion. I would never come back to this restaurant because I hate lying companies. If they are unwilling to honor something so simple like this then they are finding other shortcuts in their business. In addition, the food was mediocre at best. Everything is overly salty with low quality ingredients and a high price. Their service is also non-existent. On multiple occasions, we had to wave down their waiters to get their attention. I would never spend my money on a business that lies to their customers and I hope anybody that reads this decides to do the same.

Beautiful environment, poor ingredients, mediocre taste In order to eat fresh fish, we ordered the boiled fish made from live fish, but the fish was as small as the arowana fillet. Barbecued oysters don't feel cooked at all, they're fishy. The only thing better is the lamb kebabs. After eating, we all had stomachache, I was troubled from night to morning, the stomach was very uncomfortable at midnight. Seriously suspect the ingredients are not clean.

Everything was sooo good! I love the Wagu beef and the shrimp. The entire parking lot was pretty occupied, but the restaurant had reserved five to six parking space for customers, which was really thoughtful. They also served ice cream in the end.

So I went here with a party of 6 during the grand opening. Overall the concept is interesting. Definitely predominantly Mandarin/Taiwanese speaking. Ordering from the menu is kind of like dimsum express. They give you a selection paper and you pencil in what you want. We sat at the bar so we could watch them grilling the kebobs in front of us. Parking: TERRIBLE. I don't know was it because it was during their grand opening, but parking took like 45mins. All the space are super compact. You would need to back out for your passenger to get in/out. Even the parking aisles were tight. Going on a Friday night to this place with Boiling Crab in the same plaza was a bad idea. We parked across the street from the plaza and walked over. Food Quality/ Price: We ordered about 20 Special lamb kebobs and 20 Original kebob. Chicken gizzards and beef kebobs. The major difference between the two lambs is the special had peppercorn along with the cumin seasoning. The skewers are pretty good quality and filling. They aren't super skinny like other places and there isn't much fat on them. It was flavorful with the side seasoning that's offered at the table (paprika, cumin and MSG). Minimum order for the skewers are usually 3 or 5 and it is $1.50 each skewer. So it wasn't too expensive. Service: It was a busy night. Getting water for our table was difficult. Servers are running around and if you don't speak up, they will not come to you. And like I said they mainly speak Mandarin and basic English so it was a little difficult ordering their Specials.

They updated the menu and it is so good!! I love the fish fillets with pickled vegetables, must try!

This is by far the best (and most authentic) Chinese food I have ever eaten in my entire life - and incredibly cheap too!! I am baffled by the reviews claiming it is expensive - it is $1.50 per skewer and $2 for a beer. The flavour profiles are perfectly balanced and contain just the right amount of spice (even if you are a wimp when it comes to hot foods like me), and the skewers are amazingly tender and melt in your mouth. The cold dishes are similarly out of this world - I recommend the cold cucumbers, mung bean noodles and century egg; I ate so much I couldn't move afterward. The location is gorgeous - beautiful polished wood tables and benches (very much an upscale treehouse vibe) and the service is very attentive, quick and friendly. I am honestly fairly upset that I am returning home to a different country because it will be awhile before I can eat here again. I can't wait to come back!!!!!

Soft opening, may go again after grand opening and update. No booze during soft opening, Food tasted ok , but the problem is that beside the meat skewers, none of the food are really cooked from the grill. You can tell from the picture, the sausage are just regular weenier but deep fried, the chicken skin were deep fried, chicken wings were deep fried, the shrimps were deep fried. Taste ok tho what's the point? I could just go to Indian at least they don't deep fried my skewer. Wudi taste way better, real charcoal grilled food. Sum it up, decoration is ok, good atmosphere, no charcoal smoke in there, but the food are nothing close to the real 木屋燒烤in China.

Food's not bad, savory, but a bit heavy on oils and spices. You may not have the greatest time here if your spicy tolerance isnt high! Would've given this restaurant four stars if it weren't for the staff they have.. 5 waiters/waitresses for about 5 tables of guests.. took us multiple times to be able to get any type of service: water, napkins, the check... dragging out our stay at the restaurant for an extra 30min or so..

Update: They have alcohol now and that's all I need to make it 5 stars (they don't have shrimp but alcohol is better than shrimp lol)

I really like this place! I always come here for their skewers n beers. The reason why I love this place is because their price is pretty cheap and their skewers are pretty delicious. Compare to other spots, I like it here way better, not too crowded and not too smoky inside. The atmosphere inside is cute, too. Lots room n space, all woody interior, loved it! Service is not bad, place is clean. No complain about this place so far. I would recommend this cool spot to hangout; eat some skewers n drink some beers. Btw, my fav skewers so far are: spicy wings, buns, shrimp, intestine. Get their cucumber salad appetizer if you want something refreshing ! Yummm~

I tried this place because the owner went to the same school as my kid. I was surprise this place is pretty good. The food are great. The pork intestine was good, the chicken skin was good, the squid and lamb skewer are all good. Only the chicken wings and shrimp is a bit dry. Definetely will go back. good for big group. The atmosphere also nice. My kids like them.

Excellent authentic Chinese food, reasonable price, good service, plenty of parking spaces and convenient location.

On our way to the "Ticket to The Twenties" event at the Homestead Museum in the City of Industry, my husband, son, and I stopped here for lunch. We had lamb skewers, sausages, dumplings, puff bread with condensed milk, chicken wings, butter grilled enoki, and grilled shrimp with garlic sauce. My son had a watermelon juice beverage and the adults had draft Sapporo beer. Everything was delicious and at a reasonable price.

Had a blast eating here with friends. Love the open space and the extensive menu. The standouts were the lamb skewers, the green bean noodles, and the man tou!!! We kept a ordering the man tou LOL. There's a wide variety of drinks to choose from & I loved the fresh strawberry juice! Amazing service, everyone was very attentive. They play really cool hip Chinese Pop music, which creates a really nice ambiance, :) will definitely come back!!!

It was BYOD, but have since changed. Food is still tasty and good. Would diff recommend.

This food is overpriced compared to the quality. The skewers are not fresh, taste like frozen skewers which you can purchase from the supermarket. We ordered beef and lamb all taste like artificial meat.

Had lunch here today with the hubby. Four stars for the environment, three stars for the service, and 1 star for the food. We ordered lamb skewers, shrimp skewers, eggplant, corn, and hand pulled noodles. The only thing that is edible was he lamb skewer and even then, it doesn't taste that good. They marinated and processed the lamb meat so much ( meaning adding additives to make the meat tender) that it no longer tastes like lamb but some kind of chewy tofu. The essence of barbecue is to eat the freshness and savory of the meat, which is not reflected here whatsoever. Also, other than the lamb skewers, all other "grilled / char-grilled" dishes (the shrimp, corn) are fried. The eggplant was wrapped in foil when brought to us, and lukewarm that you know it was microwave heated. We were only one of two tables during lunch peak hour - and if it wasn't for the nice environment and polite service, I would have given the place a 1 Star.

I'm always looking for the highest bang-for-buck ratio, so excuse me for stating right off the bat that this is not a place you go to get full. While I expected this from a skewer-based BBQ restaurant, I still gave this place a try with my family, and was not too impressed. As this is a new store, the interior ambiance is great. Interior is very focused on wood (hence the name) as the theme. It's very bright and inviting, with a large ribbon of glass separating you from cooks dutifully preparing your skewers (You don't cook the meats yourself). Despite the newness and despite coming during their soft opening, the table we were seated at was already a bit sticky. It's not the sticky from not wiping the table down, but it seems to be the type of sticky when a plastic surface is exposed to oil and grease for extended periods of time. Weird. Our waitress was very nice and recommended us a lot of stuff on the menu. Since it was our first time, she was keen on recommending what she believed was the right amount of food, and reassured us we could always order more if it's not enough. I appreciated that. We ordered two bowls of noodles to share amongst four people as a bit of a filler first. The noodles were smooth, albeit too mushy. Broth was a bit too watered down and not rich nor refreshing. I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to noodles because I love them so much, and these noodles definitely aren't going into my hall of fame. Not bad, but pretty below average. The highlight of our meal was the chicken wing. They were mildly spicy, pretty juicy, and grilled to perfection. They're also mildly pricy, but that's pretty much everything here. At least it was good. If you're a fan of intestines or other innards, you'll probably like this place a bit more. There's a huge variety to choose from. I don't like them very much, so I didn't hold it against the store. At least they have the option for people who do like innards. We also got a lot of beef and lamb kebabs, which were heavily reliant on cumin and other spices for flavor. They were good, but again, the skewer aspect of the store forces you to pay more than if you'd just ordered lamb or beef flavored the same way at a normal restaurant. Overall, the biggest downside is there's nothing really worth coming back for. Nothing is so bad that it makes me hate the restaurant, but considering we spent about $20 per person here and weren't completely full, you could definitely do a lot more with your money.

Fair pricing and a good place to go when u r hungry at late night. They open till 1 am. Nice service, and big place don't have to wait for seats. We use the 15%off (not including beers and seafoods).

The food is not outstanding. One thing that disappointed me the most is that the grill-looking-box is just a decoration lol. They grill the skewer in the kitchen and put on top of the box. Food gets cold very fast, and specially the lamb doesn't taste good when it is cold.

Been here enough times to write a solid review. Looking for an affordable chill place to hang ? Good food? (spicy Lamb, beef, mini sausage , buns, chicken wings, enoki mushroom) Open late with somewhat accommodating staff? Appropriate size for small to larger parties ? Also checking in for that 15% off is always a bonus !

Food: we ordered a lot of different items, the lambs skewers we're pretty good. Food rating: 4/5 Service: service here is decent. Service rating: 3.5 Overall: the Chinese BBQ here is good. I would come back
