人间烟火小酒馆（Dynasty BBQ)

Came and found parking around the block. Put our names on the Yelp waitlist and seated in about 15 minutes. Despite how busy it was, the tables did not feel crowded. After scanning the QR code and placing the order, food came out pretty quickly and stayed warm ish on the metal plate in the center of the table powered by 5 tea lights. The stinky tofu came out first and luckily the smell did not linger. We were surprised at how affordable it was. The food did end up over lapping but the flavor profile is more or less the same.

I found plastic pieces in my dish. The staff remade it, but the replacement also had plastic pieces. At that point, I suspect they didn’t actually remake it. I really hope they improve their quality control.

Absolutely delicious! The food was full of flavor and cooked perfectly. The skewers were tender, juicy, and packed with that authentic smoky spice that makes BBQ irresistible. The garlic eggplant was soft and fragrant, bursting with umami, and the vermicelli dish added a nice, tangy contrast. Everything was served hot and fresh, and the presentation made it even more appetizing. If you’re craving real, flavorful Chinese BBQ, this place is a must-try!
