I know what you are thinking.. Has Dana gone KRAZY? What is she doing writing a review about a Mongolian Grill? Here's the deal - I accompanied a few co-workers to check this place out with the understanding that I would just play the role of delightful company and would not be partaking in any of the dining portion of our excursion. I was familiar with the whole giant slab of wok concept having seen it first hand at the Green Valley Buffet but this place is something special and you will be shocked at the twist coming up.
Let me walk you through the process. When you walk in you immediately see said giant wok thing and it smells really good inside which is always a good indicator. Then of course you find a seat in the dining room and you are greeted by the kind folk who take your drink order and provide you with a bowl. So as my friends took their bowls to the bountiful buffet I came along just to see all the excitement. They had I believe 4-5 proteins to select and a whole bunch of veggies and other things I have no idea what they were. Well the stars must have aligned and my chi was in the right place because something came over me and I went back and grabbed a bowl! (This is where the shocking twist starts!) I began placing items in the bowl.. nothing too crazy just samples of chicken, beef, ham, pepperoni and some noodles that looked orange. Then you are supposed to give them your bowl to cook and I was prepared to do so when our server stopped me to advise I must put some sauce on it in order for it not burn and not get stuck (probably common sense for most people but not for this kid.) At that point I almost lost it and wanted to cry because there was quite the selection of sauces and I was scared it would ruin my bowl. He was very patient with me and assured me that the sauces would evaporate and all would be well and he was right! And you wait there for all of like 30 seconds to get your food.. Super-fast.
The cool thing about this place is that if you are unlike me and enjoy most foods, they have little signs above the buffet that give you "recipes" for you to create the ultimate bowl of goodness. Also they have a ton of sauces at are made fresh every day.
So in conclusion I know I am not the most credible to recommend a place like this but they are a new restaurant and are currently running grand opening specials where you get all-you-can-eat dinner for like $13 dollars and lunch is even cheaper (but not all you can eat)! My friends' bowls were so big that when they put it on the plate, along with the complimentary rice, it was quite a meal. And think about it, this place got the pickiest eater you know to try something new.. that has to say something! I want to bring my husband to try it out and so should you. The End.
