Flavourful and delicious food! You choose the type of carb, protein, vegetables, seasoning and sauce that you prefer. I like that I can fine tune the ingredients based on what I wanted. The girl who was working there explained how to order and she was very accommodating. I ordered chili oil with the Mongolian sauce, light egg noodles, and lots of vegetables. The normal beef came in with lots of beef. They also gave us extra sauce on the side. Well worth the price we paid. Highly recommend and will be back soon!
After meaning to go for the longest time, I've now been twice within a few weeks! A great "build your own" menu, with staff that will help you with your choices! If you like it spicy, I recommend the jalapenos and hot Mongolian sauce . My favourite local restaurant.
This place is great! The server brings a paper to your table and you check off everything you want on your bowl. 1.5 lb bowl was big enough for me. The Kady serving us was super polite and fast. The restaurant was clean and welcoming. Absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a good Mongolian restaurant!
One of the best place in town for fresh Asian cuisine. Maybe the only place with the concept of cost per weight in the city with varieties of protien and veggie options. Go for the hot mongolian and chilli oil combo. Choose rice noodles. That's my personal fav. The stuff was super friendly and guided me through and through as the ordering process is unique. Answered all the questions and went above and beyond for you ultimate experience. You can customize it as totally vegetarian/vegan if you prefer. They have shrimp as a protein option if you are looking for something Halal. Already went there twice in a row and hoping for many more visits.
My first time experience was very good. Staff is so helpful, the food was very tasty and portion size 1.5lb is so enough for an adult. They no longer offer buffet but you can still pick and choose the ingredients for your stir fry
Delicious made to order food. The server was great and very helpful. It was a small bit on the expensive side for just a bowl of food being around 15 but it was still very good. Outdated interior with uncomfortable chairs.
My first time here and I really enjoyed it. It's a stir fry restaurant that let's you choose your ingredients; meat, noodles, veggies, sauce and more plus you get to choose the weight of the ingredients. I had beef stir fry with Mongolian sauce. It was delicious. If you're a fan of stir fry give it a try.
Hostess always kind and glad to see you, food is delicious and soda is 2 cheapest you’ll find for a beverage
