Food: Bland and uninspired cuisine

With their top dishes being Rice Pocket Bread and the titular Mongolian BBQ, you'd expect a flavor journey but instead find yourself on a bland detour. Many reviews noted the meet and rice quality fluctuating from good to questionable, while others found the variety of meats, toppings, and sauces quite limited. The creativity of the menu itself was brought into question with food visibly crusted on it, suggesting a lack of cleanliness.

  • Great Value

    Customers rave about excellent food quality at affordable prices.

  • Okay Quality

    Good quality, fair pricing, but meat and rice quality sometimes lacks.

  • Bad Taste

    Many instances of food described as bland, flavorless, and downright disappointing.

Vibe: Depressingly outdated vibes

Stepping into Genghis Khan Mongolian Bbq can feel like time-travel, but not in a good way. From its dark, dingy, dirty corners to smelly old furnishings and a downright depressing ambiance, it's hardly a place for a romantic, enjoyable date night. Its excessive noise levels have also been a factor in ruining many potential good nights out.

  • Great Drinks

    Great prices for domestic and imported beer; nice beer selection.

  • Bad For Dates

    Excessive noise, outdated decor, and darkness spoiled the date night.

Perks: No perks to rejoice

Though it does offer plentyful parking and friendly service, its suitability for groups seems debatable with the limited seating room. The once appreciated variety of veggie options has mysteriously dwindled down, much to the disappointment of their regular patrons. The noise levels no doubt negate any favorable points it could garner in this domain.

  • Easy To Park

    Plentyful parking and easy to find, offering a great parking experience.

  • Okay Service

    Varied experiences with service speed and staff attitude noted.

  • Bad For Groups

    Place was crowded, but large dining room helped seating.
