No line and plenty of empty tables during a weekend lunch. My friends and I came here for a quick meal and to try it out. We got various skewers and some of their side dishes. Highlights -- * Lamb skewers were pretty good. Moist and flavorful. Could use more seasoning but it was cooked well. * A choy skewers was very flavorful and this was my favorite. * Corn skewers were interesting -- each kernel is skewed on and it's chewy, different from the usual sweet corn that bursts with juice. * Tin Foil + Quail Eggs -- Enoki mushrooms and soup were so flavorful! Lots and lots of quail eggs included What's okay -- * Shao bing skewers (my friend liked them) * Beef Skewers * Beef + pineapple skewers Wouldn't recommend -- * Chicken skewers are overcooked so it's dry and tough * Sesame lettuce -- my friends liked this but I didn't. It feels very simple to make -- raw, chopped up lettuce with sesame dressing. I felt like the sesame dressing also tasted slightly off too and was too much Chairs are folding chairs, so it's interesting! We walked by 5 minutes after leaving and found that they had immediately closed after we left. However, funny enough, our table wasn't cleaned up at all! read more

Food is excellent in taste, quantity is up to you to decide as it's priced per serving if skewer. If you decide to eat primarily skewers the price would obviously stack up. I recommend you get an actual dish, as they're very affordable. Many people are afraid to come eat at bbq skewer places due to the price, but if you order an actual dish, which they are very good and filling, with just a few skewers, you can easily manage to eat under around 30 dollars per person comfortably without feeling hungry after. The service is quick since it is a smaller building, the ambience is very similar to these kinds of places in mainland China, it's clean, televisions mounted around and a comfortable environment for eating. read more

After a long day of shopping I decided to let someone else do the cooking for me. Since Beijing BBQ was near by,I decided to give them a try. The restaurant is in a small strip mall and kind of unassuming. The interior is somewhat plain with a lot of stainless steel ...yet still has a welcoming atmosphere. The staff was really helpful in helping choose selections and were quite accommodating on how much "heat" to add. We ordered skewers of lamb,beef and pineapple the potato tornado (which was the bomb). All had a very nice blend of cumin,smoked paprika,black pepper and hints of cayenne and garlic...really delicious, For the most part,the meat was very tender with only a couple of fatty pieces. We also shared a bowl of Beef Brisket and Rice Noodles. Super yummy...again meat was really tender and well seasoned but there were a few fatty pieces. Overall,the meal and service was pretty good...and the prices were fair. I'd stop back again for more skewers and perhaps try something new. read more

There's plenty of parking in this plaza. Service is quick and friendly. Fried pork and tornado potato was nice and crispy with perfect seasoning. Cold noodles were refreshing and I loved the textures of the crisp apples, kimchi, and cucumbers. All skewers were delicious with a perfect amount of seasoning and spice. Very easy to order more and receive attention as this restaurant is pretty small. read more

It was a good experience. The service was really great! The waiters were super enthusiastic and they were really nice to recommend items. The food was decent, I definitely thought it could have been a bit more flavored, but it was still decent regardless. The restaurant itself is pretty clean and spacious. read more

How can food taste this satisfying? The textures, the flavors, everything was spot on. We might have just ordered the right dishes but eating here was one of the most satisfying culinary experiences of my life. I'm Eastern European, and I probably have a slightly different taste palette than most Americans, especially when it comes to meat preparation but for me it really hit the spot. I still dream about this place. The service was quick and good, though we were the only customers - we came sort of off hours. It's a rather small and casual place. Nothing fancy, just simple, good eats. read more

Yikes, be very careful what you order here, because the skewers range from the tasty to the inedible. The roasted fresh lamb skewers and the roasted beef tendon skewers were good. The meat was chewy and with gristle, but very tasty and easy to eat. I'd have them again when I want something to gnaw on vigorously. The chicken skin skewer meat was impossible to chew. And not at all crispy. Totally unlike the fine chicken skin you get in Ashkenazic or Southern US cooking. The roasted seafish was even worse. Rather than chunks of catfish strung along the skewer in the manner of the lamb and beef, as the menu description had led me to expect, it was a full-body small aromatic fish, of the anchovy/sardine variety, impaled upon two skewers. There was the skin, the bones, the head and tail, and all. As a result it couldn't be eaten, except for a few chunks of (hopefully) boneless meat you'd pull off. The roasted corn kernel skewers are a bunch of individual kernels lined up on a skewer. Well roasted, but the corn wasn't fresh (it was January, so I guess that's what I should have expected), so it became unpleasantly tough and chewy. read more

I've been here twice - first time I had a great experience, second time not so much. Basically, do not come when it's packed, they don't have the manpower to accommodate a full house currently. When they're not busy, the skewers are cooked perfectly. The recent time we came, most of the skewers were either undercooked or overcooked, unfortunately. Chicken skin is on the chewier side, not crispy. Chicken wings are good and a massive size. Potato tornados were popular and decently good. Beef and chicken bites skewers were good fresh. Intestines were pre-marinated before grilled, so they were too salty. Service was okay, but they're very overwhelmed. I saw other customers getting really angry because the food was taking so long to come out. Our food also came out slowly (second visit), so we just ate slowly as each skewer came out. It didn't make for a very cohesive dining experience, but it is what it is. We also asked our server to make sure our items were coming a few times, and he went into the kitchen to check for us and then the item came out. All in all, the flavors are decent. Not very spicy at all though. Good when they're not busy, but otherwise - would not recommend coming at a busy time. You'll be waiting to eat for a long time. read more

Originally I planned to have Peking duck next door but it didn't work out so came here instead. TLDR, order the BBQ items but skip the other non BBQ items. Chinese BBQ is a popular street food or late night snack and it seems it's becoming more popular in NorCal finally. This is one of the better places in terms of taste when it comes to the BBQ items. First, as I stated earlier don't order the non BBQ items such as Hainan chicken which is cold and not tender at all. The chicken rice is also way off. I think they put it on the menu just so parents can order for their kids while they themselves can order the BBQ. The beef tripe casserole is better but still I think BBQ is where the restaurant shines. The BBQ items such as lamb kebabs are really good. It's a good mixture of fatty chucks along with lean meat that's done properly. The spices are not overbearing and can be a little grainy so I suggest the restaurant go lighter on the sauce. The chicken heart is a little too well done and doesn't look like the photos. What I do like is that there are items such as lamb tendon which is rarely offered in other BBQ restaurants. The corn is also interesting because they didn't cook the whole cob but instead put individual kernels on the stick. The restaurant is surprisingly popular among families with young kids as I saw many families came to sit down. The parking in front of the restaurant is small and hard to find but just go to the other side of the McDonald's and you should be able to find some. Overall a decent addition to the Chinese BBQ restaurants in the Bay Area. read more

Been here a couple times, I was happy to find a place that actually serves this type of skewers! I always see these at festivals, where the skewer stalls have super long lines, so it's nice to be able to get it from an actual sit-down restaurant. I went during lunchtime on Sunday, there weren't too many people there so the food came out pretty quickly. I ordered beef, chicken heart, cauliflowers, and stinky tofu. They were all pretty tasty. The beef is a little fattier than I like, but it's just personal preference. One note - I ordered with "normal amount of spice", but I didn't really taste much spiciness. Also, the server was nice and helped me figure out a good amount of food to order. Overall a pleasant place to get this kind of skewer bbq meat if that's what you're craving. The restaurant itself is bright and clean, not much decor but I'm not here for that. Will keep coming back when I have skewer cravings! read more

It is a good Chinese style BBQ skewer place. I ordered lamb, beef, chicken heart and etc. It is slightly too salty for me but the service is fast. The general environment is chill as well so it can be a good small group get together place with friends. read more

Food 4/5: solid beef and lamb skewers. Chicken skin could have used more time cooking so they're crispier. Depending on personal preference, skewers may need a bit more seasoning. Good service and vibes. Would go back. read more

Average toilet. The mirror has strong ambient light that you can see well if there are meat or veggie on your tooth. Food is very ordinary compared to other BBQ skewer places around. Don't get the chicken skin, it is saggy. They need to cook for longer time. Chicken heart is little bit over cook. I think their bento is pre-cook heat up. Quality is average. Not all the food on the menu are available which is kind of weird since the restaurant opens such as duck blood Toilet 4/5 light mirror is a plus Food 2/5 read more

Looks like the folks from Taste Good Beijing a couple of doors down have a new place. This was a subway at some point (I've not been here in a while) before covid. Now it's a late night skewers place with sone sort of astronaut theme. Regardless of decor, neat cooked over fire on sticks is my jam. Unfortunately my mandarin translator was out of town but their menu has a ton of pictures. I think I had all things lamb, sone chicken hearts and sone squid. All really tasty though , personally I'd like a touch more salt and the hearts to be less well done. Otherwise super friendly folks and strangely the majority of folks in the room did not speak mandarin so I wasn't totally out of place! This area has been getting all sorts of different Chinese regional cuisines but it looked like Beijing just doubled their game read more

We came in on a Friday night, food itself is actually pretty good (lamb tendon skewers) but we waited probably 35 mins for our first skewers to appear and then probably another 20 mins for the rest. Wait staff were also very overwhelmed but trying their best. Would be back for skewers but only on a weekday. read more

Beijing BBQ - red willow lamb, lamb tendon, beef, shaobing - Chinese Near Me - Cupertino, California

Food was good and quick. Nice spice. Good amount of Szechuan flavor. You can ask for a chili crisp for more spice. Very clean space. A little more direction would be nice. There was a metal candle hot plate in the middle of the table and a cylindrical bin we did not know what it was for. But we figured it out eventually. Decent price too. Very a la carte style. read more

You know how they say Sunnyvale is the Beijing of America? No? Well, they should start saying that. The food and atmosphere here at Beijing BBQ felt just like the late-night holes-in-the-wall I've been to across the Pacific pond. From the glass bottles of 北冰洋 to the complimentary sunflower seeds, everything was as authentic as it gets. The Keep Running clips and assorted kpop music videos on the TV only added to the vibes as well. Aside from the well-seasoned skewers, the entrees were equally appetizing. read more

I wanted to like this place but it didn't stand out in the category of BBQ of western Chinese style. The BBQ flavor was average. It wasn't spiced enough to have the significant kick in the mixture of flavors. Western Chinese (xing jiang region) barbecue consists of mainly cumin and chilli pepper. The cumin flavor was lacking. The roasted pig trotter showed two pieces in the menu but we received only one. Mostly bone not much meat, not worth at $7. Useless food warmer lit by candle was brought to the table but the hungry gobblers cared less. Spent over $100 for four, I wasn't full even though I am not a big eater. The girl said there are many other items you haven't tried yet. Ok? You gonna pay to feed me? Haha. Cramped space but overall clean and newly renovated. The moon wall design was absurd. Chinese characters were on top of the kitchen indicating their target customer. I read Chinese and they don't make sense! Stick back to Chef Yang even though I strongly dislike their service. read more

The food was so so. My friend and I went in for Hainan Chicken Rice on their menu, but they didn't have it. What really annoyed me was their lack of flexibility on their one credit card policy, meaning one table less than $100 has to be on one credit card. I was on a business trip, needed to use the company card to pay for my meal only. It was the first time I ate at a restaurant that does not provide this basic service. read more

I love coming here for a late night snack. Their a la carte BBQ is the best! I really like their lamb and pork skewers.

Wasn't sure what to expect since this place wasn't on Yelp and I couldn't find a menu. Turns out the menu is pretty heavy on offal which isn't really our cup of tea. We tried a few different skewers, but nothing wowed us. (I think they all had the same seasoning.) The skewers did have some good flavor, but they needed more salt to really make it pop. read more

The service was terrible -- the chef was unbelievably lazy, the dishes came out super slow, and they stopped taking orders even though they weren't closed yet. What the heck? If they don't want to grill after 9 p.m., then they should clearly say they close at 9! Isn't that how other places do it? Is the chef some kind of big shot or what? read more

First time coming here since a few friends wanted to try it. We got here about 5:50pm, and ordered at 6:00pm. We didn't even start to get our food until 6:55...NEARLY AN HOUR after we ordered!!! They didn't update us on what the timing on our food was and basically ignored us for the most part. They had a FULL cup of sunflower seeds on the table when we got there but the food took so long we finished them by the time our food got to the table. We got no apologies or explanations when we asked about our food. Even when the food started to arrive it was staggered like (1) item at a time so our group of (4) were waiting for items to come out so we could eat together. By the time stuff came out some of the other stuff was COLD. The food doesn't taste bad but honestly the OVER 1 hour wait to get your food is NOT WORTH IT! read more

Pretty quick service, friendly staff. The prices were reasonable. I was surprised how busy it was all things considered.

Great customer service, food came very quickly! Went on a Saturday night and there weren't many people which was nice. Skewer portion sizes are s, but that's ok since you can always order more. We tried the beef & pineapple, fresh lamb, tornado potatoes, and bun skewers. All had great flavor. Looking forward to going back. read more
