Delicious food, friendly and responsive service. We ordered the lamb skewer, grilled chicken, and a iron pot. I love all of them! Highly recommended. Will come back next time.

Loved this restaurant! Very authentic Chinese food. There is so much to try. We are definitely going back. We had the braised pork, which was phenomenal! My mouth was singing. We tried a cold spicy dish that had beef and ox tongue. It was a very spicy, chewy type of texture with lots of cilantro. I really liked it. Little FYI, the collagen parts that were chewy are very good for you. The steamed pork and cabbage dumplings were excellent. I recommend trying out this restaurant.

Hi, It’s Stephen. I has been eating at Flaming Mountain for a while. Generally, I love the food here due to its authenticity and local taste. I have ordered: Marinated Jelly Fish Head - With the love for marinated dishes, the Jelly Fish is cut and mixed with pickled cucumber bring me the lovely taste with chewy texture. Garlic & coriander help keep the fish easier to enjoy!!! Fried Potato, and Eggplant - The softness brought by the eggplant covered by the sauce of juicy watery savory. Braised Pig Trotters in Chili Oil - The star of my meal is here. You will never or can reject, even believe. Trust me! The crunchiness of the pig trotter, this dish is cooked and prepared in the amazing way for tasting and order another dish. @foodguy.ste follow me up for more btw, one more thing, I would recommend to order white rice as sometimes the salty will overpower your flavor.

I went on a Sunday about an hour after they opened so it wasn't super busy yet. The server was very sweet and she was delightful. I ordered white rice and a lamb skewer and a pork belly skewer. The rice was so fluffy and delicious. Both the lamb and pork belly skewers were the chef's kiss.... They are incredibly delicious and savory. I would highly recommend trying the many skewers they offer!!

UPDATE 2025: NEW MENU. Used to be good Northern Chinese food, but Changed their menu a bit ago & now they also have sichuan food? At least the northern skewers are still there.. Sad to see some of my favorite dishes gone, but cool menu. Would be even better if there were pictures attached. Very very busy on weekend dinners. I’ve had to turn back because there were no available tables & waits for to gos were an hour long.

Love their sour fish soup! Made of fresh fish that they sliced. We didn’t realize that it was spicy as my mom don’t eat spicy. They were so nice to cook a new not spicy version. Also had their seafood and tofu pot. Wow it was great as well. Both dishes were so good that we took the broth home to cook noodles for lunch the next day. Haha
