Fodor's "There's no song and dance performance at this Uygur family-run spot, and none needed, as the solid cooking stands on its own merits." Full review
Frommer's "Located down a narrow hutong alley, this restaurant, with a mosquelike facade, serves some of the best Xinjiang cuisine in central Beijing." Full review
Rough Guide "You can’t really go wrong at a decent Xinjiang restaurant as long as you eat meat."
Frommer's "This perennially popular spot offers the distinctive cumin-spiced lamb kebabs, crispy nan bread, homemade yogurt, and hand-pulled noodle specialties that come from China's far northwestern province." Full review

Be sure to book in advance—and reserve your Peking duck at the same time (it can take almost two hours to cook).
Fodor's "The glassed-in kitchens at this Grand Hyatt restaurant are like theater for foodies." Full review
Frommer's "This is a restaurant we regularly visit, for its fantastic Peking duck and its equally enthralling setting -- a dining room placed in the middle of an open kitchen." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Some say this restaurant in the Grand Hyatt rests atop Beijing’s food pyramid. Made in China's ground-floor Dongcheng neighborhood location focuses on northern Chinese fare." Full review
BlackBook "Super Potato strikes again. Blonde woods, brick and glass once again prove to be the only ingredients they need."

"Made in China has a funky modern design but can feel a little hectic with all the kitchen action and the snuggly situated tables." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Brick walls hung with cooking implements give the impression of eating with the family."
Rough Guide Star
"An element of drama is added to this crisp, modish restaurant by the spectacle of chefs toiling over the giant woks and ovens in the open kitchen."
