| - When I was much younger, one of my absolute favorite things to do was to go to the long-since closed Mongolian BBQ at PV Mall. It was kind of like a sport to figure out how to jam as much food as humanly possible into that tiny bowl. Well, it has been at least a decade since I've tried Mongolian BBQ, but it is still as fun as I remember. I mean, who doesn't like to watch their food sizzle on the grill?
I like how Genghis Grill really streamlines the process. Recipe cards for the newbies (I ignored them and created my own, but I later wished that I had tried one of their creations instead!). My bowl consisted of sliced beef and pulled pork, cabbage, carrots, bean sprouts, peppers, green onion, and cilantro. I didn't fill it nearly to the top, thinking that I would order a bottomless bowl and return for a different flavor combination. However, I ended up being pretty pleased with my original creation and plenty full, so I didn't go back for seconds. All of the ingredients seemed fresh, and there was a solid assortment of options. I particularly liked the quantity of sauces provided. My advice with the sauce - don't use a whole cup unless you really like saucy dishes. A half-cup was plenty for good flavor and no dips. I liked the friend rice that I chose as a starch, and the rice noodles that my man ordered were really tasty too.
The service was fantastic. Even though it is a fairly casual restaurant, we had prompt, courteous service, were check on by a manager, and our server had a great sense of humor.
