Reviews
- massive_pegasusTucked away in one of those old hutong alleys, this little spot is super low-key. I actually went solo and didn't feel awkward at all, which is kinda rare for me in Beijing. I ordered the beef tendon skewers and the grilled oysters — the tendon had a really nice chewy bite and was packed with flavor, and the oysters were so fresh, like crazy fresh. The owner was really friendly and actually came over to chat and explain some of the dishes, which was a nice touch. Inside it's cozy and comfortable, great if you just wanna chill by yourself. I grabbed a couple drinks and it was the perfect vibe. They have a solid drink list too, goes really well with the grilled food. Honestly gonna come back.
