Nice Meating You BBQ
Inside Nice Meating You BBQ
Nice Meating You BBQ in Coquitlam offers a vibrant spot for those who appreciate intensely flavored, casual barbecue skewers in an unpretentious setting. This restaurant leans into the lively, somewhat bustling atmosphere that comes with a compact space filled with stools and shared tables, encouraging quick, energetic dining rather than a long, leisurely meal.
Centered around a menu rich with a wide assortment of grilled skewers, from lamb and beef cuts like tongue and throat to more adventurous choices such as tripe and lamb kidney, the focus here is clearly on delivering bold, savory tastes served piping hot. Each table is fitted with a hot plate, keeping skewers warm throughout the meal—a practical touch that fits its communal, hands-on dining style. Alongside skewers, cold dishes like spicy chicken and mixed vegetables provide a nice contrast, and dishes like garlic grilled wings and spicy fried clams add to the variety.
This place works best for groups eager to share a variety of flavors and explore different textures—think of evenings with friends looking for something casual yet flavorful. The pace is quick, with food arriving rapidly, which suits a more lively or spontaneous outing rather than a slow sit-down dinner. While the seating isn’t designed for lounging (the stools can be tight for long hangs), the energetic buzz makes up for it, especially on weekends or later nights when the crowd skews younger.
Regulars seem to appreciate the flexibility with spice levels, starting mild and adjusting seasoning individually, which helps cater to different heat tolerances. The casual vibe combined with solid drink options, including beer pitchers, reinforces its role as a local spot to dive into bold barbecue flavors without fuss.
Visiting Nice Meating You BBQ late in the evening fills the space with a lively crowd, making it a convenient choice for late-night bites. It’s not a restaurant for a quiet date or intimate gathering but for social groups and food explorers drawn to authentic, richly seasoned Chinese-style BBQ skewers in a straightforward, energetic environment.
