At one point I had thought this place had closed down, imagine my delight when I found out it was still open. I have been going to this restaurant for 15+ years. There is no place better, that I have been to, if you just want simple Mongolian styled Asian cuisine. The place is retro to the point that it almost looks dive-y but I still enjoy it. The wait staff is extremely nice. I met one of the managers on our last visit. Nice young man whose family has owned the restaurant for 30+ years I believe. The prices are good compared to other "Mongolian" style restaurants Ive been to. The all-you-can-eat is around $15 and you get soup and appetizers included. The shaved meat variety is straight forward: Turkey, Chicken, Beef and Pork. There could be more variety of veggies... but what they do have there is classic and fresh tasting. Ive been to other "Mongolian" styled restaurants, and they were good, but I think this place is the best tasting for the money. When I go to a "Mongolian" restaurant, I want MONGLIAN Asian style food... I dont want to be tempted with Italian, or American or other style cuisines all done on the giant cooking surface. 5 Stars

The food was okay, nothing out of the ordinary when it comes to Mongolian bbq style dining. The pockets were a nice touch but not enough to save the graces for all the things lacking in this restaurant. First off the soup they serve, might as well not exist as it amounts up to a BIG nothing. The crispy won-ton and the egg roll were not up to par with their names. The ingredients to choose from are very few and not well stocked at all. When something goes down to absolutely nothing, they add a little bit, but I think this is because they have a cooling problem at the buffet they are serving them from. The place looks very dingy and the decor needs an immediate upgrade. Floors are perpetually dirty and other than the old lady, who seems to be the owner, nobody pays attention to the floors. The servers are very friendly but one goes to a restaurant to eat good food, not to chat with the staff. I dont believe I will be visiting this restaurant any more.

i have been coming here for years. Its well priced delicious, Mongolian BBQ. All of these people that dont like thus restaurant have no idea what they are talking about. You make the food yourself, and if its to oily, to spicy, or not flavorful enough, thats your own fault. During lunch they bring you your choice of meat and you take it to the vegetable and sauce bar, at dinner they just bring you a bowl and you get the meats and vegetables both at the bar. Sauce it, they cook it, you eat it. Its delicious.

I have been going to this place for my whole life! If you know how to make the food its really fun! You push all the meat down till its completely compressed and then you make a barrier with the carrots and zucchini and then you put garlic and what ever else you want in the middle and then you put noodles on top and press the whole thing down with the napkins provided the one with the least in their bowl pays for the one with the most in their bowl! :D great place great service great fun!

Terrible. Ive been to wonderful mongolian bbq restaurants, and can tolerate no atmosphere if the food is good and the place clean, but this place was so dirty I wondered how they got city clearance to operate. My feet stuck to the floor, and the booth seats were so old that my chin rested on the table before I asked to move to a table. the grill didnt look clean, and its located next to sinks, etc., The meat was frozen, and the selectino of vegetables scanty. mh

The food was ok. Over all the entire experience was bad. Service was aweful we almost walked out and went to the place next door. The lady saw us walk in and turned away to go do something else. The interior was dark and drab and the system used to get your food is just plain gross. I should have gone to the mall to eat if I just had to have mongolian. The only person I would recommend this place to is Restaurant Impossible.

This is the bombest spot for mongolian grill cuisine. Lunch prices are an amazing value, and at dinner you can literally pile as much meat as your heart desires. Almost a unnoticeable hole in the wall type place. Staff are all super friendly, I have been coming here since I was too small to even see the cooks over the wall. Also spoon soup onto your pocket biscuit stuff with your bbq. (Thank me later)

Found this place through yelp monicle. Good value. Not fancy but good if you know what to expect. Frozen meat heaped into a bowl and then you go get the things you want cooked in. I had more of a selection at my college cafeteria when we did Mongolia bbq on Friday. When you order the meat you pick the extra side plate of food stuffs. Pocket biscuit was good to heap food into.

This is a no frills joint. Straight from the 80s. The food is great! Mongolian BBQ with lots of choices and optional sides like rice, egg rolls and this super, awesome pocket bread you have to try. Come as you are and bring your whole family. Excellent value for the price.

This place is amazing. I went here for the first time about 4 years ago with my fiance and i absolutely loved it. However, it is a little dirty but it is still amazing. I just think it needs to be upgraded but dont change the food. :) Would recommend it to anyone !!!

Wow, I have been to 3rd world countries that had better food and was a hell of a lot cleaner then this dump! I walked out after I got my plate. I cant believe I wasted my money $13.00 way over priced. They should close this place down then blow this place up!

This is our favorite place! Deliciois and healthy choice plus the pocket bread is to die for! They have the best fried rice also. Came here as a kid and now we have moved an hour and a half away and still come all the way here when the craving hits us!!

Been coming here for 20 plus years. Same decor and same serving style. You order and you make, season and pickup your own bowl. And thats what makes it awesome. Rice pockets made fresh and served hot. No other Mongolian place has rice pockets.

This place has been a favorite of mine for many years. A while back ownership changed and with it some of the food changed but its got some of the best tasing Mongolian BBQ around. All of the servers are very pleasant to boot.

I tried Mongolian barbeque for the first time in my life here. Since then I havent found another place that can match the quality and service this place provided. Great place, great food and very authentic experience!
