Little Skewer - 从前的小酒馆

Great petite skewers, stick with the fatty stuff and you can't go wrong. Beer goes better with the skewers.

Read some good reviews and decided to give this place a try. I came with my boyfriend on a Thursday night around 5:30pm. There was no wait when we arrived and we got to select any open table. The interior decor was amazing. Loved the old style chinese tavern style. The bar was decorated like the olden style medicine shop and they have alcohol bottle wall and lots of funny signs up. Make sure you try to read all of them. The claw machine was a bit out of place though. There's a chinese chess set in the entrance area. I guess you can wait while you play.

Service was good. Someone was available whenever we flagged them down. We ordered the lamb, beef belly, chicken gristle, chicken skin and pork intestine skewers. Skip the lamb. The rest were pretty yummy. My favorite was the pork intestine (very crispy), the chicken gristle and chicken skin, they both had a sweet cumin taste to it. They have a plate designated for skewers that they use candles to keep the skewers warm.

We also got the garlic enoki (very flavorful another highlight) and the clam vermicelli (delicious as well). We also ordered the Le Shan Qiao Jian Beef (Small) pot. The beef was good very tender but it was light in taste which is why they provided a sauce that went well with it.

We ordered the 3 wine combo which was basically 9 shots of osmanthus, lychee and plum wine (3 each flavor). I like the representation but it didn't really go with the food we were eating. They also provided water in a large jug which is a plus cause I don't like to keep asking for refills.

Lastly we ordered the Black sugar fried rice cake for dessert. It was interesting but I don't recommend. The crust was a bit hard but googy on the inside. Overall one of the better skewers place I've been to. Portions on the skewers are small but that's also why you get so many for each order.

By the time we left, the place was packed. Parking is street as well as they have a small parking lot shared with another restaurant.

I will definitely be back. It's a good place for a group of friends to hang out, eat, drink and chat.

I was attracted to this place based of the décor. Its essential a Chinese BBQ, Bar and karaoke lounge? They have a self serve barsnacks bar(sunflower seeds, popcorn and canned fruits) as well as a Chinese dice drinking game customers can play. I came with my parents and we essentially ordered a little bit of everything. Prices were adequate given the portion sizes but some items were definitely hit or miss. Service was also very friendly and attentive if we needed to flag them down. The stand out dishes are Le Shan Qiao Jiao Beef, Aus. Tiger Prawn, Chicken Gristle and Oyster while the disappointments were the scallop, beef and lamb skewers. Though the 20pc little skewers may be plenty, they're not of great quality and aren't worth it. Get any listed as 10pc instead. If you aren't into alcohol or are the DD, get the 12 shot plum juice instead. Apparently its a traditional drink with this type of food, though I must warn it has smoky taste to it (normal). Also take time and look the art/décor, they're pretty cool. I would definitely come back.

Wonderful skewers, plum and fruity wine. Wonderful service!

The food was delicious! The service was great! We were a group of 10. Everyone left the restaurant full and happy.
We ordered a lot of different meat skewers. We also ordered the baked oysters. The Mango Durian pizza what a surprise to see that on a menu. It was also delicious. We will be back!
