    Lamb skewer, Sizzling Squid, Enoki Mushroom
    Alekhya K.

    The meats were well seasoned and delicious. But the hot plate really did not keep the skewers warm. I think the tea light went out and no one bothered to check and replace it. The enoki mushrooms were really really yummy. Really enjoyed the squid as well. The edamame could have been better, some of them didn't look fresh. Good experience overall!

    Seafood Hot Pot Combo
    Kenny I.

    Located in the Asia plaza, is this restaurant that's open till 2am, which is convenient for those wanting hot pot or meat skewers, later in the evening/early mornings. The meat skewers had a little tray like box with candles under it to keep it warm, which I found to be cool. The stars in the soup were a little overpowering, but the soup was still good overall.

    It was delicious!!! I loved that the menu is on a bar code and you order everything on the site thru your phone. The interior is so cute with lots of instaworthy backgrounds. I highly recommend the skewer hot pot which had 30 skewers! The broth is perfect! Service was fast and so nice. I'm definitely coming back. Definitely check out their specialty drinks. My favorite was the dirty strawberry milk. I'm definitely coming back.

    Grand Opening Event 2022

    Friendship BBQ had their "Grand Opening" today!! Huge flower arrangements were lined up outside the main door, it made us stop, look and go in for dinner. This new Asian BBQ restaurant offers traditional BBQ skewers. We tried all the skewers for fun, lol, lamb, Wagyu, and squid. It was easy to eat, fresh and a great idea for a 'date night' type of thing! You can order skewers or big platters of food to share. If you're vegan, they have a huge selection of veggie items like tofu, mushrooms, thinly sliced potato, corn, eggplant, and whole chile peppers. Beyond the skewers, there are seafood boils, dan dan noodles, lamb ribs, fried chicken, etc. FIVE STARS for delicious food, exceptional service, and location.

    BBQ and milk tea are amazing. I had a little bit of many things and I truly enjoyed them. They were very flavorful and nicely cooked/made. They served the initial round of our food very fast too (we came in around 3 PM on Friday). One thing that I have to complain about is that it was quite a hassle to order food. They didn't have a paper menu, so at first, they asked me to order food via my phone, then they later offered an iPad for me to continue ordering. It'd be much easier if I got to use the iPad first.

    This place has nice service and ambiance. I really enjoyed their food, especially the spicy tripe and duck blood. Their lamb fried rice was also very fragrant and tasty. Their skewers were also very well marinated and yummy. I haven't tried a dish that I didn't like so far, and would highly recommend this place to anyone who loves Chinese food.

    Always a fun date night at Friendship BBQ. We lucked out and hit them at a nice slow time on Saturday night. There is a good variety of meats, veggies and drinks to choose from. My husband recommended the strawberry milk and it was delish! The meat and veggies have a little too much spice for me but my husband adds spice. So I think it's all about how seasoned or spicy you prefer. Staff always nice and attentive.

    Good food and tastes like childhood!

    The best choice to relax with friends, the taste is good, the ingredients are fresh, the boss is very kind, they will open until late, and you can sing while eating

    Lol this is what you get for 3 dollars a skewer. This has to be a joke. It's microscopic pieces of burnt meat.
    Ben S.

    Youre paying for microscopic pieces of burnt meat at 3 dollars a skewer. You'll need to order about a hundred of these to get full

    Food is awesome, staff is awesome and great place to hang out, eat, socialize and drink beer! Ordered a bunch of different skewers, seafood pot for two and veggies!

To me, the clear winner is the Mac & Cheese with pork Burnt tips. Trust me when I say, words can't describe this heavenly taste and you need to try it for yourself. We got to talk to Tim, the owner and he is just so lovely. You can see how much pride(justified) he takes in his food. I can't wait to go through the entire menu.

We opted for the Beef and Pork Combo B (difference is bone-in prime rib and bigger quantity). The prime rib was fantastic (cooked medium) and pork jowl was juicy. We also tried the brisket but it was on the leaner side so it was a tad bit chewy. We had an array of banchans like kimchi, cucumber salad, steamed egg, tofu soup, corn, daikon, fish cakes, etc. We also tried the Seafood Pancake. Though it wasn't stuffed with seafood, it was perfectly crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Two servers rotated cooking our meats and were so skillful that the meats never burned. They gave us to-go boxes that had aluminum foil lining the bottom so the grease doesn't soak through. That was thoughtful! My only concern was the ventilation system. When we walked in, it was really smokey. I noticed the smoke from our grill not being sucked in by the vent directly over us. Maybe it wasn't on or maybe it wasn't strong enough. Either way, a lot of smoke was filling the restaurant.
