"It is quite amusing to see people giving this restaurant a rating higher than three stars. My fiancé and I have turned it into a game to guess what item they will forget every time we order. Whether it's the crab, scallops, or scallions, it's always something. Despite this, we continue to order from here as it is one of the few options in the area. The older lady at the front seems to be unhappy with everything. This is what happens when a rural area like Virginia tries to interpret Italian cuisine. I have never used a veteran's discount before, but jokingly tried at this restaurant, only to be offered a minimal discount despite serving in the army for 12 years. Don't avoid this place completely, as perhaps an influx of money could improve their food quality. Just be prepared to be amused by what you actually receive when they serve you. Please be kind to the waitstaff, who are good people, and who often seem to be mistreated by management."

"I was going to leave this place 1 star but the manager and the chefs saved the day! My family and I stopped here on our way back home from a long road trip. It was family friendly and looked like the food would be quick. We ordered a couple burgers and chicken nuggets for the kids. The food took almost an hour to come out. I also ordered a French onion soup which never came out for some reason. The waitress offered to bring it out after I already got my burger but I declined as I prefer to have soup, salad or apps before my main course, not after. When we walked in, the manager was working the front of the house. It was my wife’s birthday so I snuck away to let the manager know so he can order the Muddy River cake after our food. Not 5 minutes after I have this conversation with him, the waitress walks straight up to my wife and informs her that her ‘surprise’ birthday cake will be out after the food!!! I am still confused why someone would do that! Luckily the food was REALLY good! The cake, the burgers, everything! Also, the manager apologized and bought the desert for us which was really nice. I was going to leave 1 star because of how long the food took, the soup thing, and the ruined surprise but I feel like I can’t do that since the food was actually really good and the manager tried his best to make it right."

"Here’s what happened: about six months ago, I called in a pickup order, was told it would be ready in 30 minutes, but upon arrival, I had to wait nearly an hour for cold food that simply wasn’t good. We decided to give the restaurant another chance on Friday night, January 20, 2023. This time, I was informed that my order would take 45 minutes. I understood it was a busy Friday night, so that seemed reasonable—at least I thought they were giving me a heads up about wait times. As I drove to the restaurant, I recalled my previous experience, believing it couldn’t be that bad again. However, upon walking in, I saw four other patrons waiting with unhappy expressions. I should have inquired about the wait time right then. I noticed a bag on the counter and felt hopeful it was mine, but when the cashier—a young man—processed my payment, he simply told me to wait a few more minutes without any friendliness or explanation. I ended up waiting in the lobby until I received my food at 6:54 PM, after having called in at 5:44 PM. A wait of one hour and ten minutes for Chinese takeout is far from normal, but sadly, it seems to be the expectation here. At least this time the wait was only an additional 30 minutes, but that still feels absurd. Not one person who was waiting received an explanation, apology, or even a discount. If I had been informed that my order would take another 30 minutes upon entering, I could’ve decided whether to pay and wait or just go home. In the end, I paid a premium for food that was neither hot nor good and arrived extremely late. There are limited dining options in Scottsville, and I truly hope they resolve these issues. It would be great for people to want to eat there because it’s appealing, rather than out of lack of alternatives. I won’t be risking another visit. Your customer service needs significant improvement. Good luck, Beijing Kitchen."

"7/23/23 bacon was over cooked on my BLT Fries were over cooked. Mac n cheese tasted burnt 8/6/23 decided to give them another go since it use to be one of my favorite places to eat. It’s something my man I instantly regretted. It took forever for us to receive our food. His Mac n cheese tasted as if it was from a can, his fries chicken fingers tasted as if they had been cooked twice. The service sucked bcuz we didn’t get asked if everything was ok she’s didn’t refill our drinks. Needless to say she got no tip it’ll be a very long time before we ever go there again. I can’t believe that Lumpkins of all places has went onto the list of places that lost us being customers. Food drinks: Service sucked. Food was awful. We hate saying this about on of our favorite places to go but it’s our favorite no longer."

"I also felt misled by the menu regarding the Batteau Burger, which is served with Batteau Fries. The fries are supposed to come with aioli sauce, according to the appetizer menu, but the fries we received did not include this. When we mentioned this, we were disappointed to find out that we could add aioli for an extra charge. The burger itself is already priced at $18, and while it was tasty, I don’t think the overall experience was worth it. In summary, it was an underwhelming experience. We ended up leaving with lighter wallets and less satisfied appetites than we had hoped for. Kid-friendliness: Not kid-friendly at all Service: Dine-in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $30–50 Parking: Somewhat difficult to find Parking options: Free street parking"
