| - This location was better a year ago before they turned it around to make it like all the other ones. I remember back in the day, Happy Hour was all weekend and all well drinks were $2!! They didn't have all the perks, like the appetizers or "large" bowl option, or even the little ordering cards.
I keep going back though, and the food is still tasting good, so I am acclimating. I really like the build-it-yourself philosophy. Perhaps I am a control freak, but I like to decide how much spice and sauce and broccoli goes into my bowl. I like a lot of broccoli, moderate amount of sauce, and a little spice. My husband goes the complete opposite route with no broccoli, tons of sauce, and too much spice. It just would not be a complete experience at Genghis Grill if it does not include him pondering that maybe his bowl is too spicy.
Getting back to those appetizers, I suggest skipping them. If you shove down all the contents of your bowl as you go through the line, a regular bowl is enough food. We got the edamame last time because it was included in a coupon, and it was mediocre. We also got the ice cream since it was also included in the coupon, and it was also mediocre. Envision two very small scoops of vanilla ice cream in a small dish, lightly drizzled with chocolate sauce. That is the sundae. No whip cream, no sprinkles and no cherry on top.
The servers are always friendly and the people watching is usually acceptably entertaining. Sign up for their mailing list because you get good coupons (although then you wind up with boring edamame and cherry-less sundaes....). Kids eat free on Tuesdays!
