小楼门钉 Hu Tong Sizzling Meat Bun

A canteen I often go to! Northern Chinese flavor, traditional Beijing-style snacks, Mending meat pie, fried noodles, meat pie, porridge are all very good. No tips are accepted, but you need to pick up your own tableware, tea, and paper towels

Place is small so it's pretty tight, especially when it's busy with people buying takeout as well. Food is great, loved the egg zucchini sizzling bun, the doornail beef meat pie, the multi layers meat pancakes, and the pork stew with flat bread. Pork stew has not just pork intestines and flat bread (which tasted a bit dense), it also has pork stomach, stewed fried tofu, and minced garlic which you stir into the stew. Delicious! Though like the other reviews said, there's no tip but the price is a tad expensive for the portion size. But still worth it, in my opinion.

Very nice little restaurant. They serve delicious pan fried beef or pork buns. The wrapper is not too thick, while the meat is super juicy and has plenty of soup inside. Food is served pretty quickly and everything else is self serve. At checkout, they have a sign that says no tips needed. Which is the complete opposite to the recent dreaded trend of mandatory tips. I definitely will visit again and have already recommended this place to friends.

We visited 小楼门钉 Hú Tòng Sizzling Meat Bun on a Sunday afternoon for dinner. There was no waiting time and had around 3 tables empty when we got there. You can scan the barcode on the table to order. It was first time visiting so we ordered the ones that people recommended on the Internet. We got Pork Stew with Flat Bread, Doornail Beef meat pie, Multilayers Meat Pancake(beef), Traditional Fried Pork and Soybean Sauce Noodles and Fried Starch Sausage. It was more than enough for two people and I highly recommend you eat the beef pie and the beef pancakes when they were hot. All foods were served within like 3mins we ordered and the rest are kinda like self-service where you can get the disposable plates, chopsticks, different sauces, garlics, spoons, bowls, water at the self serving station which I don't mind at all because they have the sign saying NO TIPS! There's even no tip option on the POS machine. Will definitely come back again!

This restaurant is very small with about 5 tables only. There was no air conditioning inside, so it was a bit stuffy and hot. They do not accept tips, and the pricing of the food reflects this. Everything is basically self served as you would have to get the utensils, sauces, and napkins yourself. You order from the QR code on the table, and they will bring the food and drinks to you. We had the doornail beef meat pie, which was pretty dense. The meat inside was good, but the wrapping lacked flavor. The chives, egg and shrimp sizzling bun were okay, there was only 1 small shrimp inside. The traditional fried pork and soybean sauce noodle was good, however there was barely any pork. The spicy seaweed salad was good too.

Decent Beijing street food, not at all healthy, but rather a taste reminiscence. Some of the dishes were not freshly made, prepared and warmed up with a microwave. Self served, no tips. It was at lunchtime on a weekday, pretty busy.

Today I'm going to share with you a little doornail that you can try in Richmond hill and even though I got a taste of their food on the go I wanted to share this experience with you The doornail Patty is really a sight to behold! It's a little pricey, but it's huge, and every bite is full of gravy, super juicy! Although I am not from Beijing, I do not know what the taste of authentic doornail Patty should be, but this bite down, feeling the taste is very good, the skin is crispy, the filling is rich, and every bite is a feeling of happiness I am the point to take out, specially only ordered the doornail Patty to taste the fresh, feel the taste is also fine. The portion of each Patty is very sufficient, eat one already feel very full, especially for meat lovers. But the patties seem to be freshly made, so it's been a long wait. Next time, I plan to go to the store to try more dishes and experience other tastes of their home Although the store looks small, there are a lot of seats inside, and the decoration is also very distinctive, giving people a warm and comfortable feeling. The waiter was also warm, which was really sweet The small house door nail is really a place to share. Whether it is the delicious doornail Patty, or the atmosphere and service in the store, it feels OK. Next time, be sure to go to the store in person to punch in, try more food, and look forward to more surprises

Authentic Beijing dishes. Worth to try. The range hood might not work so well, there is frying smell inside. Came when they do soft opening, some menu items are not available. Not sure how they did now but will return try other dishes and update.
