| - I've been to Genghis three or four times now, and each time it was delicious.
I feel I have to address a couple of the reviews that have been posted here. First, there is Nadia's odd review about how "gross" for raw meat to be bloody. Well, last time I checked, meat has blood. Apparently she prefers frozen meat over fresh meat. To each her own, but it seems a bit absurd. Second, Jennifer "reviewed" the place without having actually eaten there, which strikes me as a bit closed minded and presumptuous. I don't have the intuition to be able to judge a restaurant based on bowl size alone, but maybe she is just more talented than I.
On to the actual review... Genghis Grill is great. Like I said, the meat is fresh, and there are several options: steak, chicken, turkey, pork, sausage, scallops, shrimp, cod, calamari, and probably some that I'm forgetting. Oh, and did I mention that none of it is frozen?
After the meat, you are hit with a wide array of seasoning selections (Ashley mentioned that she would prefer sauces. Apparently she didn't realize that there are also sauces at the end.). Seasonings are necessary because they enhance the flavor, which is something that YC's could use. My favorite is the Cajun seasoning.
Next you hit a wide variety of vegetables and other knicknacks. There are almost too many choices; I have a hard time narrowing them down. It also allows for different combinations; not all of your bowls have to be exactly the same each time.
Finally, you get to the sauces. These sauces actually have flavor.
You also get a choice of what you want in the bowl with the stir fry; options include noodles and fried rice.
They also have strawberry lemonade, one of the rare restaurants with such an offering.
It is true that this place costs a little more than YC's, but it's worth it. To those who say the bowl is small, sure, it's smaller than YC's, but when you add the rice or noodles, it fills you up, and you are limited at YC's by how much crap food you can stand to stomach. There might be better Mongolian BBQs which I don't know about, but this place is legit.
