wow it is tasty indeed! The skewers and grilled vegetable are legendary!! The cold dishes are quite average …the price seems cheap so I ordered too much …end up spending more than $100 for two people haha but overall good food
The most like bbq place in Melbourne. Tried many times and taste very good. BBQ Lamb and chicken with noodles are my favourite. Highly recommend you guys booking in advance otherwise will waiting for long time.
**3.5 stars** I finally decided to try out this restaurant. I didnt understand why it was always full and many times, thered be a queue waiting outside as well. Its situated right at the end of the eatery zone on Victoria street, in the opposite direction of the city.
From the outside, youd assume it was some kind of restaurant where you could cook the meat in front of you (as you would at lots of Korean BBQ restaurants.) The name of the restaurant itself, led me to believe that anyway Instead, its mainly just meat and veggies grilled in the back kitchen and brought out to your table. (Nothing wrong with that, as the smell of food wont stick to your clothes as much!) Theres also an option for hot pots if youre in the mood for something hearty and warm.
I found the menu to be a little overwhelming and hard to follow (The main one with pictures has Chinese language written underneath it). The restaurant also gives you a separate form where you then need to fill out/ tick which food you want. This would be easy for Chinese people. But for us, we had to ask for a form in English to read (no pictures attached, and some of the numbers dont match the pictures in the Chinese menu). In any case, I just read out the food that I wanted to the waitress All this aside, I get why this place is so popular. Mind you, we were surrounded by lots of people who were speaking in what sounds like Chinese.
The food is cheap, it comes out fast and its tasty! Its also the easiest thing to share between your friends or family. I personally found a lot of the food I ordered to be oily and sometimes too salty. But its probably meant to be that way.
The skewers are the most popular food here. Staff will place your first skewer orders on a long plate and eventually, bring out the rest one-by-one by piling them on top that same plate. Theres a small bin on every table, where you throw the skewer sticks in once youve eaten the meat or veggie on them.
If youre wondering about your drinks, you can basically walk out to the fridge and take them. Same as the water, if youre having trouble getting the staffs attention, just go grab them from the front. You can self-serve the sauces/ straws/ whatever you think youre missing as well – theyre set on the small table in the front.
Overall, I found this place to be okay. I just dont like how tight the space in and how close you can end up sitting next to the other people. Its also a little noisy and the ambience doesnt feel clean. But if youre coming here for the food and something you can share with friends, its a nice option. Would I come back? Yes.
