guilty_b reviewed Home Plate Barbecue in Dining > American

“The place isn't fancy - but then, it isn't pretending to be. With it's basic, simple interior, very reasonable prices, and decent food, Homeplate is a place that will satisfy - even if it won't 'wow'. We tried the pulled-pork and pulled-beef sandwiches, both of which were tasty and filling. The okra starter was good, and we would go back ...”
jpapish commented on Hot Bean Cooperative in Dining > Beijing
“Just a heads up...this place is moving at the end of this month (02/12) to a location closer to the Zhangzizhonglu subway station. Will update when I know exact location.”

siennapc reviewed Jamaica Blue > Central Park in Dining > Cafés

“Yum yum yum. Had a great lunch here yesterday. Bclassic is right -- the chai latte is awesome. The eggs Benedict are absolutely delicious, and the enormous brownie hit the spot. Seating is comfortable, the venue is clean, service is very friendly and they print fapiao the second you ask for one. Looking forward to going back!”

hwimsley reviewed Grinders in Nightlife > Bars

“Feel like I should follow up on my earlier review as I gave the place a second shot. Much different experience, mainly I would say because the owner and some other guys were handling the service. I ordered a beef sandwich that turned out to be pretty darn good, and had some Rogue Dead Guy drafts. I have to say, ...”
discostar reviewed Tango in Nightlife > Nightclubs

“was there on the weekend to see Sven Vath and although he was dropping dope beats the bar was serving up an all 50 kuai menu with no other beer than tsingtao. so 50 for a tsing 50 for a mixed drink and even 50 for a red bull or a bottle of water! booo!”
discostar reviewed Avocado Tree in Dining > Mexican & Tex-Mex

“Went there today. Noticed they have cheese now great! They didn't have hot peppers though. The meal was over all good. but I wouldn't call it mexican if there is no spice.”

“This address above is not correct; the registration event on Feb 26th is in the Lido hotel, ball room!”
sarafang reviewed Fratelli Fresh in Dining > Italian

“my family and i went there for dinner two weekends ago and was pleasantly surprised. The breads were amazing with fresh pesto and sundried tomato dips. They were not stingy on the breads and dips either. Next we had the lobster soup with lobster panini which was again amazing. our son loved it. we also tried the foie gras, ossobucco ...”
pooface commented on Club Hero > Gongti in Sports > Gyms
“This has been one of the worst experience I have with a sports club in Beijing. I joined last year during the National Holidays where I told the sales person that I will be leaving Beijing this summer. He said he understood and even gave me a steep discount. At first I thought I was happy that I managed to ...”

elonata reviewed Collage Bar in Nightlife > Bars

“Went to Collage Bar for the first time last night and had a great time! The live bands were spectacular and I would go to Collage Bar just for the live music but I don't have to, because the drinks were very good as well. I only had two drinks, the Collage Cosmo and Lovers (which is actually 2 drinks ...”

hksx1987 reviewed Tim's Texas BBQ in Dining > American

“Despite the food, I might say this is a good place for friends hanging out and catching up. Sometimes meeting and talking with new folks. All people I met here are nice. Well, the food is always served with large portion, though. I like the beef brisket. Tasty.”
paulhorse reviewed Miadore in Shopping > Lingerie & Adult

“The absolute best! I totally agree with fongmandy. Me and my girlfriend are toys lovers and we've been to several stores here in Beijing. Quite often to be dissapointed with the rubbish there's being sold. Even though Miadore is online only, they exactly sell the products we like. High quality and designs that are out of the ordinary. You can ...”
paulhorse reviewed Element Fresh > Sanlitun in Dining > American

“i love this place. too bad they only have two resutarants in beijing. I live too far away for their delivery service. please add some more resto's guys!”
hwimsley reviewed 1949--The Hidden City in Dining

“We had duck here last night and the dinner was very good. Service was excellent and the decor is very special. It would be a great spot for a business dinner or to take guests visiting Beijing - as well as just treating yourself! I will be back to try the noodles.”

thelma_tang commented on Le Pré Lenôtre in Dining > French
“My husband and I picked this place for our 5th anniversary + valentine's day dinner. I regret immensely later on.... The dinner went ok, although I did not fancy the duck chest or the dissert that much. What really kills the day was at the check-out. I did not find out until the next day when I received my electronic ...”
bottle_o reviewed The Saddle Cantina in Dining > Mexican & Tex-Mex

“I disagree with the "Second Bite" review from CW. I think the food is much worse and twice as expensive as it used to be. 45 kuai for chips and salsa! You could once get a huge plate of shredded beef enchiladas for 50 maybe 60 RMB. It was always too much to eat with rice and beans, generous beef ...”
bottle_o reviewed Nathan's Famous > Dongzhimen in Dining > American

“we ordered delivery from this place on jinshisong.com just to see if the restaurant would be worth a visit some time. Super cheeseburger, Cheese dog, Chili cheese fries. Absolutely inedible. It was completely cold. It took more than one hour (though this could be delivery guys fault). They gave me one tiny spoonful of meat chili sauce, not enough for ...”
dh8787 reviewed SALT in Dining > Mediterranean

“SALT is excellent - consistent quality, with an imaginative menu. We've been a couple of times and both times have struggled (too much choice!) to choose from a menu which offers some really interesting food. Execution is also consistent. Service is friendly and Gaby exerts a critical eye, constantly checking that customers are happy and that all is going smoothly. ...”
dh8787 commented on LMPlus in Dining > Italian
“Consistently very high quality, friendly, good menu and super food. We love the atmosphere here and in the pizza place: the house red in the pizza restaurant is also excellent - and the pizzas are first rate. In fact, although it's a bit of a hike to Central Park for us, we don't eat pizza anywhere else now. And Massimo ...”
arragonyee reviewed Kura Kura in Nightlife > Bars

“My friends and I order double shots of Lagavulin, costing 300RMB each. It had the color of light urine instead of dark amber and tasted like absinthe. When we tried to tell the manager, his only response was "So what?"....as if daring us to ask for a refund. We're whisky connoisseurs who would easily spend 5000RMB on a typical night ...”
dimsum reviewed Tim's Texas BBQ in Dining > American

“Came here at 6am with friends for Superbowl 10 days ago. It was a shot to see all the waitress were in American color, all cheer-leader look! Absolutely make me feel like back home. Both floors were packed, but we all had very friendly service. Tim was the MC which pushed the party to extra entertainment. At the end, we ...”
hwimsley reviewed LMPlus in Dining > Italian

“I have been going to this place for over a year now. I am amazed that Massimo can consistently put together an amazing meal for me. Not just good, but enjoyable in every way. From the flavor, to the service, the feel of the whole thing is completely satisfying and we always go home with a smile. My wife gets ...”
hwimsley reviewed Home Plate Barbecue in Dining > American

“At last, a bbq place in Beijing with a real smoker and just as important, someone who understands how to use it. The brick smoker is right by the front door, in front of the bar where you can watch them stoke the fire and work the meat. Just as interesting, the kitchen is large, open and well equipped. This ...”

“Best bar b q pork ribs in town. Friendly wait service. It was a very pleasant dinner with the live band playing along some great music!”
gastronome reviewed Panino Teca > Sanlitun Beixiaojie in Dining > Cafés

“I have different feelings about Panino Teca... Bruschettas are great! ingredients are fresh, I just love it! But... Lasagnas are just disguting! For us, it 's not lasagna... Salad should be improved. Paninis are okay but not great, poor in quantity, for example,Crepanini are quite better.”
tamarack05 reviewed Flamme in Dining > American

“While the cocktails are delicious, the quality of food (and service) does not measure up to their prices. Union's food is much tastier and of better value.”
pauroth reviewed Saveurs de Coree - Fine Korean Grill in Dining > Korean

“This best is really one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. The food was amazing and the service was also great.”

weasel reviewed LMPlus in Dining > Italian

“I am reluctant to write this review, since it is getting so tough to get a table for lunch at this fine restaurant. The lunch menu is two or three courses. Unbelievable food for the reasonable price. But please leave me a seat.”
siennapc reviewed Hongyuan Nanmen Hot Pot > Temple of Heaven in Dining > Hot Pot

“I'd heard from my friend that this was the best hot pot in town, but it was just okay. I thought service, ambiance and food were all much better at Man Fu Lou. The restaurant is bright and noisy, with a very local vibe. It's so busy here that service really suffers, and we had to flag down waitresses left ...”
yassa reviewed Tim's Texas BBQ in Dining > American

“I was a little surprised walking in at lunch time to find the place totally empty. I showed myself to a seat, called for a waiter and asked for a menu. I was ready to order, so raised my hand for the waiter (who was now busy texting on her phone) to come over. After repeated failed attempts to get ...”
oreillybros reviewed Elisa's Italian Restaurant in Dining > Italian

“I am going to split my review into to parts (food and service), as I don't want one to bias the other. Food: As others have said it is not the greatest. I have eaten there quite a few times as I used to work nearby. I would say the pizzas are reasonable and some of their salads (although I ...”
mikalafreasbeck reviewed Home Plate Barbecue in Dining > American

“Home Plate met my hankering for ribs and beer (SLOW BOAT ON TAP!) last night. Because the portion (a half-rack) was so huge, I just finished it for breakfast. My fingers are sticky and my mouth feels quite peppery, and it is so, so worth it. Another great thing is that their house-smoked ears of corn are so delicious, not ...”
queeniee reviewed The Bookworm in Dining > Cafés

“The Bookworm would be a brilliant place to hang out, if it wasn't for the incredibly rude service I always seem to encounter whenever I go there, even if you are a polite customer. If the wait staff could throw your drink onto the table without any consequences, they probably would. After ordering, nine times out of ten they will ...”

ubiquitousdude commented on Hello Kitty Dreams in Dining > Cafés
“Just went here tonight for celebrating Valentine's Day and I did not think the food was as bad as the CW reviewer mentioned. Maybe they have made the food better now. It is quite nice environment. But you need to book in advance as they are fully booked. Although today it seemed not man people, and there were empty tables. ...”
pmaksy commented on Obentos in Dining > Japanese
“One of my favorite spots to eat in Beijing! True to their word, food is always very fresh and tasty. Also think the bento boxes are a great value for their price. Their delivery service is great too, miso soup always makes it to my by door piping hot even in the middle of winter!!!”
bendimian reviewed Moment Gastronomy Cafe in Dining > Cafés

“The best sandwiches in the SLT area. Horrible location but good sandwiches. Comfortable seating inside with seating outside that will no doubt be popular come the sweltering months ahead. Worth the trip!”
bendimian reviewed The James Joyce in Nightlife > Bars

“I’m conflicted about this bar. I love the fireplace in the back. As far as I know this is the only bar in SLT that has one. But other than that the bar just seems exceptionally average. Not only that but the clientele are all old brits or euros that arrive around 4pm and don’t leave until their mistresses shoo ...”
bendimian reviewed Black Sesame Kitchen in Community > Recreational Education

“If you’re new to Beijing or an old timer I highly suggest you spend an evening at BSK. That goes doubly so if you have guests in town. Yes, you can learn how to bao jiaozi just about anywhere but here you get to meet, chat and hang out with other interesting people, drink wine and ultimately learn something. Oh, ...”
bendimian reviewed Alio Olio in Dining > Italian

“Excellent Italian food reasonably priced. House wine is the best and cheapest in Beijing. Highly recommend their salt cooked fish and of course the alio olio pasta. Service, despite being open for some time now still has room to improve.”
bendimian reviewed Fubar Peking in Nightlife > Bars

“Despite the management hullabaloo, there isn’t a lot a lot of change from the last time I visited. Drinks still good but the bar is too smoky and dark for me. Plus there are too many college students. I prefer to go somewhere where I can hang out with friends and not feel like I bathed in nicotine. Hotdogs used ...”

fdanicek reviewed El Obelisco in Dining > South American

“Today I wanted to have a nice dinner with friends, but we all left the Obelisco disappointed and we know we'll never come back. To make a horrible story short: After waiting for 45 mins, the waiter brought our food but left it on the empty table instead of serving us. At first my friends and I didn¹t believe, that ...”

pauroth reviewed Panjiayuan Antique Market in Shopping > Beijing Markets

“This place is pretty entertaining. Even though most of the stands sells the same things (stones, crafts, artwork, china etc) you see a lot of beautiful, so it can be worth it even if you don't plan to buy anything. And if you spend some time bargaining you can make good deals!”
pb8 commented on CC Sweets in Dining > Dessert
“Save your money and go elsewhere folks. I ordered a birthday cake for my husband and was thoroughly disappointed in not only the appearance of the cake (which ended up looking like something a 12 year old could have made) but also the taste. I told the bitter shop girl (who acted as if she was doing me a favor ...”
patpong reviewed Kerry's Kitchen in Dining > Global Cuisine

“The buffet dinner at Kerry's Kitchen was a memorable experience of international dining not easily found around this town. The ambience of the place is lovely - sophisticated, but not overwhelming, and the service is excellent. The tofu counter was something to behold, as was the Wagyu beef, oysters and salmon (all imported) on offer. The dessert stand was nothing ...”

“When you're here, don't miss the great food market in the basement! Just like in many other malls you use a prepaid card to buy the food and can then choose from different food stands. Compared to other malls I have visited this was one of the best with the lowest prices and biggest variety of food - and everything ...”

“When I realized I had several black spots visible on my molars, I dove into the message boards to see where I could get a good filling in Beijing. I tried Joinway first because it appeared to be the most reasonable price for the quality of service offered. The clinic itself seems clean, and the registration fee and charge for ...”
