The easiest 5 🌟 I've ever given to a restaurant! NOTE - The restaurant name is different on Google maps. Check photos attached for the correct restaurant. Me and my family come here based on previous reviews, and I have to agree with all of them. The staff were super friendly and helpful 🙌 They made big claims about their beer fish and snails with pork, and they had a right to. The beer fish was beautifully cooked, and the snails with pork were delicious (our first time having anything like this) 🤤 This is day 9 of 10, travelling through China, and this is one of the best restaurants we have eaten at 🤌 Wonderful hidden gem. If you manage to find the restaurant you will have a nice surprise. The food is tasty and the owner speaks English. She helped us order and was a pleasant host. Make sure you go into the correct spot, check our photos for the entrance. I stumbled upon this place and met the owner Sally. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and everything gave me such a home feeling. Staff was super friendly, food was delicious and it was served in timely manner. Highly recommend this place. FYI : Google doesn't accept new businesses in China so the review is added on the business next to it.

This was hands down one of the best restaurants we’ve visited during our three weeks in China! 🇨🇳 Since beer fish is a local specialty in Yangshuo, we were eager to find a place that served it fresh and authentically — and this restaurant absolutely delivered. The beer fish was incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked. If you try only one restaurant in Yangshuo, make it this one! Another highlight was the owner, who speaks excellent English. She used to work as a tour guide for international visitors before opening this restaurant to share the traditional regional cuisine she loves. 👌🏻

We are Italian couple travellers and we use to travel around the world. This is definitely the BEST typical chinese restaurant in Yangshuo. All the dishes we ordered were amazing and so tasty! (We also are vegetarian and It's quite impossible to find something for us around here). Super nice place, quality and variety of food, so kind staff, helpful and also they speak English perfectly (first people met that speak english in all China). Super recommend!!! And wish them the best 💜
