This copper pot hot pot restaurant near Longtan Lake Park is run by a seventh-generation descendant of the Niujie Yongli family. Yongli is short for the Li family of Yongan Tang, a shop opened by their ancestors at Yongdingmen during the Qing Dynasty under the name Yong Sanyuan. The owner's father was an apprentice at Donglaishun in his early years. The restaurant uses halal-slaughtered high-calcium lamb from Sonid, Inner Mongolia. They serve Niujie sesame flatbread (shaobing), and the sesame paste dipping sauce is stamped with the character for good fortune (fu). The small shop is full of Beijing character and often hosts film crews. If you don't want to wait in line at Jubao Yuan, come here instead.
Address
: No. 16 Zuo'anmen Inner Street, next to the northwest gate of Longtan Lake Park
65. Yilan Lou
Northwesterners in Beijing often choose Yilan Lou for gatherings. Their hand-grabbed lamb (shouzhuarou) is authentic and tastes just like the Northwest.

The fried lily bulbs sprinkled with white sugar are crispy and tasty.
Address: No. 5 Zaojunmiao Road, Haidian District (200 meters south of Lenovo Bridge on the North Third Ring Road)
66. Dahuozhishang Barbecue
They serve grilled marbled black beef with two types of dipping sauces—one dry and one liquid. Add some Korean kimchi to cut the oil, and finish with a stone pot bibimbap to fill up. It is a very satisfying meal.

67. Muyixuan Lamb Spine Hot Pot
This newly opened lamb spine (yangxiezi) hot pot restaurant on Niujie is very popular. During their opening promotion, you get one pot free with every pot you order. You should try their snacks, especially the chive pockets (jiucai hezi).
Address: East of the Niujie intersection
68. Yangfang Dadu (Post and Telecommunications Center Branch)
I recommend the Yangfang Dadu hot pot restaurant at the Post and Telecommunications Center. The meat is good, and the broth stays clear even after cooking. The dipping sauce is perfectly seasoned without adding cooking wine or fermented bean curd. The environment is spacious, and you don't have to wait in line.
Address:
East entrance of Yiheyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing (near the New Palace Gate of the Summer Palace, the South Gate of the Old Summer Palace, and the West Gate of Peking University)

71. Zitengxuan Restaurant
The Beijing-style meat pie (mending roubing) shop east of the Tuanjiehu Bridge intersection has expanded and renovated, renaming itself Zitengxuan Restaurant. It is still a halal restaurant in Beijing. The taste seems to have improved quite a bit, and you have to wait in line even at lunch.
I highly recommend the meat pie (mending roubing). Be careful not to splash the soup on yourself when you eat it.

72. Changji Iron Griddle Barbecue (Zhizi Kaorou)
Changji Iron Griddle Barbecue is a very authentic old Beijing halal restaurant with only six tables. They specialize in iron griddle barbecue (zhizi kaorou).

The decor in the shop has a cool, confident vibe. Everyone calls the owner Master Chang Si. He is warm and hospitable. These kinds of small alleyway shops are rare now.
The grilled pickled cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, chicken cartilage, beef, and lamb are all marinated before grilling. The flavor is just as good as Kaorouji, but because it is a small alley shop, the price is less than half of what you would pay there.
Address: In the bungalows waiting for demolition south of Guangnei Street. There is a wall built in front of the entrance, so you cannot see it unless you walk inside.
73. Yuezhen Yayuan

The Spanish seafood paella made with Italian fragrant rice and the main dish, "Snow-Hidden Kunpeng"—which is sturgeon baked in a salt crust—are all made by Chef Ma, a Hui Muslim from Dongcheng who studied art and design.
Address: Room 2915, Courtyard 2, Wangjing Qilin She (They do not accept walk-ins; you must book in advance. Reservation numbers: 13581921271/18618375199).
76. Tangdou Conveyor Belt Buffet Hot Pot
This is Beijing's first halal conveyor belt buffet hot pot restaurant. Tangdou Conveyor Belt Buffet Hot Pot costs 59 yuan per person. You can eat dozens of items, including seafood, cooked food, vegetables, peanuts, fruit, various staples, snacks, and ice cream. Drinks are unlimited. A conveyor belt connects the whole restaurant, so you can eat everything without moving from your seat. It is quite a good deal.
Address: North side of the 8th floor, Souxiu City Shopping Plaza, Chongwenmen Outer Street (opposite Phase 2 of the Chongwenmen New World Department Store).
77. Baikui Laohao Restaurant
Baikui Laohao Restaurant is a historic shop dating back to the Qianlong era. They sell traditional eight-bowl feasts (ba da wan) and roast duck, along with various halal snacks. I ordered tofu puff soup (doupo tang), door-nail meat pies (mending roubing), and cream fried cakes (naiyou zhagao). For breakfast, they serve ingot soup (yuanbao tang), which is what Hui Muslims usually call wontons.
Cream fried cakes (naiyou zhagao) dipped in white sugar.
Tofu puff soup (doupo tang).

Their fried crispy rolls (zha gezhi) and fried meat strips (songrou), both famous Beijing snacks, have received official recognition.
The shop sells meat flatbreads (rou shaobing) for 10 yuan each.

Best Halal Food in Beijing: International Muslim Restaurants and Dining Guide (Part 3)
Articles • ali2007fr posted the article • 0 comments • 8 views • 1 hours ago
Reposted from the web
Summary: This third Beijing halal dining guide continues the city’s Muslim-friendly restaurant map, including international halal restaurants, local favorites, and practical dining details.
Continuing from the previous issue: Beijing Halal Dining Guide (Including the Most Complete List of Foreign Restaurants) (Part 2)
64. Longtan Hot Pot Restaurant
This copper pot hot pot restaurant near Longtan Lake Park is run by a seventh-generation descendant of the Niujie Yongli family. Yongli is short for the Li family of Yongan Tang, a shop opened by their ancestors at Yongdingmen during the Qing Dynasty under the name Yong Sanyuan. The owner's father was an apprentice at Donglaishun in his early years. The restaurant uses halal-slaughtered high-calcium lamb from Sonid, Inner Mongolia. They serve Niujie sesame flatbread (shaobing), and the sesame paste dipping sauce is stamped with the character for good fortune (fu). The small shop is full of Beijing character and often hosts film crews. If you don't want to wait in line at Jubao Yuan, come here instead.
Address
: No. 16 Zuo'anmen Inner Street, next to the northwest gate of Longtan Lake Park
65. Yilan Lou
Northwesterners in Beijing often choose Yilan Lou for gatherings. Their hand-grabbed lamb (shouzhuarou) is authentic and tastes just like the Northwest. You eat it with raw garlic and sip covered-bowl tea (gaiwancha) to cut the grease. The meatball soup and spicy diced chicken are delicious; the chili is fragrant but not too hot. The fried lily bulbs sprinkled with white sugar are crispy and tasty.
Address: No. 5 Zaojunmiao Road, Haidian District (200 meters south of Lenovo Bridge on the North Third Ring Road)
66. Dahuozhishang Barbecue
They serve grilled marbled black beef with two types of dipping sauces—one dry and one liquid. Add some Korean kimchi to cut the oil, and finish with a stone pot bibimbap to fill up. It is a very satisfying meal.
Address: Nanheng West Street, next to the Beijing Health Vocational College.
67. Muyixuan Lamb Spine Hot Pot
This newly opened lamb spine (yangxiezi) hot pot restaurant on Niujie is very popular. During their opening promotion, you get one pot free with every pot you order. You should try their snacks, especially the chive pockets (jiucai hezi).
Address: East of the Niujie intersection
68. Yangfang Dadu (Post and Telecommunications Center Branch)
I recommend the Yangfang Dadu hot pot restaurant at the Post and Telecommunications Center. The meat is good, and the broth stays clear even after cooking. The dipping sauce is perfectly seasoned without adding cooking wine or fermented bean curd. The environment is spacious, and you don't have to wait in line.
Address:
East entrance of Yiheyuan Road, Haidian District, Beijing (near the New Palace Gate of the Summer Palace, the South Gate of the Old Summer Palace, and the West Gate of Peking University)
69. Xinyue Zhai
Located next to the Nandouya Mosque, Xinyue Zhai is a traditional Beijing-style restaurant that prohibits smoking and alcohol. They serve lamb offal soup and flatbread (shaobing).
They serve beef noodles in large soup basins.
The thin-skinned, thick-filled Jingdong meat pie (jingdong roubing) is their most popular dish.
Address: Next to the Nandouya Mosque, Douban Hutong, Chaoyang District.
70. Yangfang Shengli, Sanqi Branch
Yangfang Shengli and Yangfang Dadu are both brands from Yangfang Town in Changping. The main difference is the dipping sauce; Shengli's hot pot sauce has a stronger flavor.
Address: South Gate of Sanqi Baihui Commodity City, Jiancaicheng West Road.
71. Zitengxuan Restaurant
The Beijing-style meat pie (mending roubing) shop east of the Tuanjiehu Bridge intersection has expanded and renovated, renaming itself Zitengxuan Restaurant. It is still a halal restaurant in Beijing. The taste seems to have improved quite a bit, and you have to wait in line even at lunch.
I highly recommend the meat pie (mending roubing). Be careful not to splash the soup on yourself when you eat it.
Address: 300 meters east of Tuanjiehu Bridge.
72. Changji Iron Griddle Barbecue (Zhizi Kaorou)
Changji Iron Griddle Barbecue is a very authentic old Beijing halal restaurant with only six tables. They specialize in iron griddle barbecue (zhizi kaorou). The soybean paste noodles (zhajiangmian) and quick-boiled tripe (baodu ren) are absolutely perfect. Next time, I will try the barbecue and the lamb noodle soup (yangrou cuamian).

One Thousand and One Nights Restaurant
This is arguably the first Arabic restaurant in Beijing and now has two locations. The decor features murals based on Arabic myths, and there is a dance performance every half hour during dinner.

Address: No. 13 Guanzhuang Road, Chaoyang District
50
Changying Seafood Barbecue
