Reviews
- sage_morning_gloryGrabbed the two-person set with my friend after wandering around the area, and honestly the portions were huge. The lamb spine hotpot was super tender, falling right off the bone, and you could actually taste the marrow — so good. Broth was rich and warming, perfect for the cold. The hand-pulled noodles on the side had that great chewy bite to them, really hit the spot. Place has a nice old Beijing vibe going on, warm lighting, super photo-friendly. Service was friendly and the food came out fast. Price-wise it's totally doable even for students like us. Definitely coming back next time I'm in the area.
