Gobi Mongolian Grill - Foster City

Basically the same Mongolian BBQ from the Midwest. I have not eaten Mongolian bbq since college in over a decade and the taste is exactly the same. It is what it is. It's pretty good if you're hungry as you can pile on a lot of stuff.

I 've missed a good Mongolian BBQ place and this was a great accidental find in foster city . People, go try it if you like or have not tried before . You should not be sorry . It 's all you can eat for under $20 fresh cooked over this huge bbq grill by their cooks . You put all the ingredients together ... from shaved chicken, 'pork, lamb, beef to all sorts of vegetables and then create your own marinade over the meat . They do the rest. Side dishes include egg rolls, hot soup, rice, sugar donut dessert and self serve soft ice cream . I do feel this restaurant needs better outside signage and perhaps photos of the food etc. I see so many people go into the restaurants on either side of Gobi after short glance at somewhat drag looking Gobi entrance and interior . The workers are very friendly .

Great place for lunch, I try to go every time I am near Foster City!

In terms of presentation, it wasn't very impressive, so don't expect it to look like the pictures displayed outside the restaurant. The noodles were a bit too soft for my liking, but the flavor was good. Communication can be a bit of a challenge since the staff speaks very little English, making it hard to convey your needs. You can get a soda with free refills for $1.99. They still have Mongolian dishes available for all-you-can-eat as well.

The selection of ingredients is excellent, and the sauces are absolutely delicious!
