I was so surprised to find such authentic Northeastern Chinese BBQ in London! The flavors are spot on – smoky, savory, and just like what you’d get in China. The skewers are perfectly seasoned, juicy, and grilled to perfection. The atmosphere is lively and feels just like a real BBQ night back home. If you’re craving proper Chinese BBQ, this place is a must-try. Highly recommended!

Excellent food and fast service. There are no reservations though and you might have to queue on a Friday or Saturday night. Food is cheap and really delicious. Highly recommend the chicken wings and the rice cakes 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Super authentic Chinese BBQ spot — flavors are on point and portions are generous. You can really taste the quality, and the prices are more than fair. Highly recommend!

The most authentic Northeastern Chinese barbecue I’ve found outside China. Juicy skewers, real charcoal flavor, and just the right spice. Friendly staff and fair prices make it a must-try spot in London.

First visit tonight, and what a fantastic experience! The moment we stepped in, we could feel the energy — a lively vibe filled with the aroma of sizzling BBQ, the clinking of beer bottles, and the sound of happy chatter. We arrived around 8 PM and only had to wait 20 minutes for a table, which is pretty reasonable for a buzzing Saturday evening. The staff were warm and welcoming, and service was impressively fast. Now to the highlight: the BBQ! From the juicy lamb skewers to the smoky chicken wings, every bite was packed with flavor. The seasoning was just right — bold, savory, and addictive. The skewers brought back nostalgic memories of late-night street BBQs from my childhood. The grilled sausage and bacon-wrapped goodies were standout bites too — crispy on the outside, tender inside. Just check out the photo… it speaks for itself! This place nailed the balance of great food, casual vibes, and friendly service. We’ll definitely be back — and bringing friends next time. Highly recommend if you’re in the mood for some delicious grilled eats and a chill night out!

Really great tasting food. Our favourites were the chicken wings, the fried rice and the fried noodles! It’s very busy and a tiny restaurant, so be prepared to sit very close to others, the menus are all online using a QR code.

Loved our dinner here, simple, fun food and excellent value for money. Was surprised by how sweet the buns were that we got as a side, would probably order rice instead in the future. Overall very enjoyable and a restaurant I would go back to.

The aroma of great barbecue food is truly inviting. The flavors are likely to be well-balanced and enjoyable to anyone. Charcoal camp Chinese restaurant is one of the finest places that offers this. I am certain that the food is cooked with quality ingredients and expertise.

Absolutely amazing BBQ spot! Everything we ordered was delicious, but the pork knuckle and crispy sweet & sour pork (Guo Bao Rou) were next-level good. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and fast service too. Highly recommend this place if you’re craving some seriously good grilled food!

really enjoyed the bbq here! I like the sweet and sour sliced pork (锅包肉)the most, definitely one of the top three in London. This is a must try. It was really busy when we got there, make sure to book a table in advance.

The barbecue here is so delicious—I’ve come a few times already! It’s authentic charcoal-grilled BBQ. Just pick your favorite ingredients, and everything tastes amazing. Also, I have to mention their lamb soup; it’s a clear broth that’s aromatic, not greasy at all, and has no gamy taste. Really good!

There’s a great Chinese BBQ place near Kings Cross—authentic and delicious. I went with friends, and we were all very satisfied, finding the flavors genuinely authentic. The ingredients are fresh, and the grilling is done perfectly. I’ll definitely go again!
