My daughter and I have been coming here for years, and we absolutely love it. There are booths and tables, and the selection of meats and vegetables are very appealing and fresh. The decor is cozy and inviting, nothing fancy. Theres a simple charm to the dusty decorations that adorn the shelves and walls. The service is fast. Although there are other menu items, the primary focus is on customers who grab a bowl, fill with good food, and have it cooked up piping hot. The longest weve had to wait was about 10 minutes, as the line moved along. It takes about three minutes to cook a bowl of food, and during the rushes there are two cooks on the grill. Do the math. Its family-owned and all hands are on deck. For dine-in, they offer a selection of beverages and will bring your check to your table. They also provide a to-go container. You can ask for a bag too. They dont stop by your table and engage in chit chat, so if you need something youll have to speak up. Id consider this more of a fast food experience than fine dining. Dont forget to try the free ice cream for dessert before you leave.

I dont understand why this place is still open let along why it has any good reviews. First of all im vegetarian and my bf is vegan so weve been to a bunch of Mongolian restaurants. I walk in the grill smells horrible. Counter by the food was grimy the cook sighed and pouted like a child when he was asked to clean the grill and he did a bad job but we let it go. Soup was horrible and rice wasnt as bad. Other people eat meat i asked him to clean the grill just quickly with water he refused. We walked out. The waitress was lazy and non existent. I will never go there again. Ever

This place is a whole in the wall but those are the best places to eat. The decor was a little dated, but really, the food was excellent so who cares! The veggies were fresh [ no mushrooms :-( ] and the meat was nice an frozen. The owners were very friendly and they had our soup and rice at the table before we had seated down with our hot food. It is not all you can eat for lunch (only for dinner), but it was well worth the $6.75 per person. The bonus is that they have GREAT soft serve ice cream. All in all, I will be back for more.

Its not good like other Mongolian places Ive been to. I agree with Christine Mitchell. The service was pretty bad. They speak in another language when they are helping you to their coworkers which made me feel awkward. The soup was not like the usual tofu soup you get in other restaurants. This one was goopy and gross. The rice wasnt fresh and the noodles werent cooked that well. I also used the Sriracha there and I think they use the good brand bottles but refill it with cheaper product. Will not go back again.

Heads up folks, walked in-the place was FILTHY!!!! Garbage all over the floors. The cook sneezed and wiped his hands over his pants without washing! I saw this and was just so grossed out, we walked out the door and ate next door to a peking restaurant. It was ok, but very $$$. Wont go back but had no complaints. DON GO THERE. I am actually going to call whoever inspects- this place needs to go away.

A bit hard to find, but we went with friends and enjoyed it. Not super top quality, but the meats were good, they had lamb which is a must for me to like a Mongolian place, and the veggies and sauces were good. Definitely better food than most Sacramento area Mongolian places Ive been to. Also, dont listen to Google, they really are open on Sunday.

This location is a little hole in the wall place and the decor and furniture is a bit outdated. But, the food is quite good, the service was very nice, and the price was equal to most other places. So, if youre looking for some Monoglian BBQ and dont want to drive far, come check this place out. All in all, it was a good experience.

One of my favorite mongolian bbq places in town. Quiet but very effective service. Soft serve included in the deal, and always smells clean. It looks like and old place, but dont let your wear and tear fool you... they clean here.

Food is really good, big bowls, I would add 4 scoops of the sauce you pick, makes the noodles more juicey. Only thing I wish is that they had chocolate soft serve , but other than that I would go there again. I love the noodles!

I have been eating here as long as I can remember. Tonight, I came in more than hour before closing, and I was pestered to hurry up so they can get ready to close, no explanation. Too bad they just lost a life long customer...

Small little place youd easily pass by, but the food is absolutely amazing. Though simple with the picks, it is a great place to go for a personalized noodle bowl without breaking your wallet.

Great place to get some mongo AYCE. Owners are super friendly and they have yummy soft-serve. This place is hidden in the back area of the parking lot and may be hard to find.

Food was pretty good and the people were super nice. One star off for the interior though. Lots of elbow room for the occupants but many areas could use "refreshing" I guess.

Been coming here for years. Absolutely fantastic! Although there arent as many ingredient choices as some other mong bbq in town, I always make the best tasting bowls here.

Décor isnt the greatest, but the food is awesome. The veggies are fresh and THEY HAVE LAMB! So many places have gotten rid of lamb, which is tragic. I will be back.

So glad I read the reviews about it being a hole in the wall but great. It was just that. Looks ran down but soooo good. Dont be scared by the way it looked.

Good food on the cheap. Customer service is nice and the free soft serve ice cream is my daughters favorite! Vegetables and meat are always fresh looking.

Been going there since 1986. The interior could use an update, but the staff is always nice and the food is always good. Love their rice biscuits!

Small, little, dirty hole in the wall. Service was TERRIBLE. Food is subpar. Worst Mongolian BBQ in Sacramento. Dont waste your time or money.

Lots of space in the parking lot and its usually quiet. Food is good as well as service and they even have ice cream cones for dessert.

Food is good and prices are reasonable. Service is hit or miss and the place could be a bit cleaner but it has hole in the wall charm.
