"This bustling barbecue-skewer place is in Diho Plaza. Go for the skewers which have the perfect amount of char and spice. Grilled over charcoal with special authentic northern Chinese BBQ seasoning of cumin, crushed red pepper, garlic and salt they are messy and fun to eat. The lamb is a standout but try a variety of meats, offal and vegetables. Do be generous when ordering, the skewers are delicately portioned, two people can easily go through a couple dozen. Wash them down with cheap domestic and Chinese beer." - ph Design Shop

Had a fantastic time at this Xinjiang BBQ restaurant! Plenty of options for group gatherings. The meats were abundant and flavorful, and the sauces were delicious. Everyone left satisfied and full. Highly recommend for a fun and tasty dining experience.

The food is good, a little salty but basically delicious. The stir-fried bean sprouts with leeks are highly recommended, and the white rice is also surprisingly delicious. The only thing I don't recommend ordering is the tofu skin, it's so thin that I'm not even sure I've eaten it. But even better than the food was the wait staff. When I accidentally dropped my chopsticks, the waiter immediately brought me a new pair without telling her.

I used to think this is THE best Chinese bbq in town. But this time it wasn’t all fantastic. The meat is bit tough, shrimp wasn’t super fresh, it suppose to be textured, but instead it was soft. My favorite dish was the traditional Chinese sweet and sour pork. It was still good, but it’s always just pretty sour. If you take a whole piece to chew the sourness would make you choke. Cucumber salad was very fresh, taste just right. Not sure if I like the beef in the wheat cold noodle that much. A little bit disappointed, their meat used to be super juicy and chewy. Maybe just not the day. For the variety they are still pretty good and regular dishes is decent. Still recommend it. Hope it will go back to before next time

First time here today, very authentic flavor. Had 20 Lamb Skews, and 10 Beef Skews. They were so good that we only remembered to take a picture after the meat are all gone!!! Very cool vibe. The service was fast, and the skews are tender and full of flavor. Will definitely come back again. Had to park a litter further and walk over, but it was all worth it.

Tried this place because a friend wanted to go again. I think it’s fine. The menu has interesting cuts of meat for the skewers. I’m not adventurous at all so I can’t attest to many of the food items. I had the mushroom skewers. It very flavorful. I had the lamb skewers, it was ok. The eggplant was my absolute fav but be mindful of the peppers. I’m terms of service, I believed there was one woman working the entire restaurant alone. When we needed things we just raised our hand to flag her done and she helped us. Things like napkins and water, we never received but we also didn’t formally ask. If you’re in the neighborhood and you like different meats like chicken hearts then you should check the place out.

Great authentic Chinese BBQ. Pork and lamb skewers were delicious - highly recommend. Bonus of this place: food is made very quick, which makes it also perfect for a late night snack!

This place is a good drinking place. The skewers were flavorful with a good spicy kick. However they sprinkle the same seasoning over all the skewers so it makes everything taste one note. So while it's enjoyable, your taste buds will easily get bored. The service was okay - nice, but not very attentive or quick.

Xinjiang BBQ in Houston, TX This reminded me so much of my life in Beijing because I would eat Xinjiang food at least weekly there. I love the mutton or lamb and goat dishes that were so different from the traditional Chinese food. Dapan Ji or big plate chicken was always fun community style dish served with flat noodles in a spicy chicken stew. This version was good, close enough to what I remember eating in China but had way too much oil. The skewers are the star here, lamb, enoki mushrooms wrapped in pork belly and bean curd stuffed with chives (although I could have done without the bean curd one because it lacked flavor). Ask for the spice powder to add more to your liking.
