Mongo Bongo Mongolian Grill

Food is ok, though not a super wide selection of components. No seafood components. Nice that there are screens with sports-kids liked it. read more Food is ok, though not a super wide selection of components. No seafood components. Nice that there are screens with sports-kids liked it.

The noodles we ordered were very saucy and salty. Didn't get my money's worth. Perhaps what we ordered weren't good. May try something else next time. read more The noodles we ordered were very saucy and salty. Didn't get my money's worth. Perhaps what we ordered weren't good. May try something else next time.

You fill your bowl with veggies, meat, toppings and sauces then label it with your table number and name. The stir-fry Chef Will take care of everything. This sounds all easy but in reality depending on the chef, meat can get overcooked beef was so tough! . This is especially the case when the chef is dealing with a line up of stir-frys. Meat selection consists of thinly sliced beef, pork and chicken; veggies are bean sprouts, cabbages, julienned carrots, broccoli florets, spinach, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, zucchini and corn. Because this is the stir-fry heaven , I have to grade this place of its stir-fry quality. Stir-fry meat and vegetables may look easy but it 's very hard to perfect. Meat gets cooked at different rate than veggies, and pork being most forgiving, chicken and beef both gets dried and tough if over heated. If you pair a hard to cook veggies like broccoli with beef, most likely the chef just throw them all on the grill and by the time the broccoli is done the beef is over cooked mine was . Pork and cabbage is the best combination since the sugar juice from cabbage soften the pork. The sauces are mostly yummy high sugar variety: Bongo House sauce, black bean garlic, bbq, teriyaki etc. for diabetics and keto people, go for plain sesame oil and bring your own sugar-free sauce I brought my own Everything Chinese Stir-fry seasonings with sesame, gluten free msg free sugar free soy sauce and sesame dipping sauce . After I ate three big plates I did not feel a bit tired or sleepy like other reviewers mentioned. My husband did feel the MSG hit immediately so skip all the sauces if you are sensitive to that stuff. When there are lots of people it takes a while to get your dish cooked so the smart thing some people do is to use two bowls: one for veggies and one for meat when queuing for the stir-fry none of the regular bowl piling rules apply to AYCE . Overall a very good value AYCE in terms of quantity of food but lacks variety. Could use even 1 simple dessert like orange wedges or simple carrot cake from Superstore. Service was excellent! The young man serving us was super courteous, and honest when I asked him about msg in sauces. He was observant and always fill out water glasses and replace my luke warm water with a hot cup without me asking. I am a regular dineout person and from a health and value perspective this AYCE meal is one of the best that I feel about and I highly recommend it to people on Ketogenic diet or other low-carb diet. Tips: arrive before lunch to avoid the crowd and end up spending lots of time waiting for stir-fry. Food freshness: 5/5 Food variety and taste: 3/5 Stir-fry skills: 2/5 Decor and ambience :2/5 Service 5/5 Total: 17/25

For the price point, I think it's quite fair. Service was very fast, and as a bonus you could watch them cook your food on the circular stovetop they have. The restaurant interior is fairly run of the mill, nothing good or bad to say about it. Overall I would go back here, the food was good and I didn't leave hungry.

I usually get the bowl when I am not very hungry. It is still very filling though I wish I know how to stack it to have more spinach. The leafy greens always seem to disappear after cooking. When I do not want to deal with piling on the food, I will do the AYCE. It just means I can get more vegetables and try different sauces too. So far I keep adding the Mongo Bongo sauce with a bit of szechuan sauce and ginger and garlic sauce. I will want to try the thai coconut sauce, black pepper, hoisin, and korean bbq sauce too. The variety of food is quite standard with thinly shaved frozen or semi frozen beef, pork and chicken. Then there are 3-4 types of noodles. Vegetables and other aromatics. I like the beef/chicken with broccoli, zucchini, bean sprouts, carrots, onions and sauce. I am always amazed by those who can really pile on the food, especially the noodles without them toppling over. I saw a table ordered the wings and they smelled really good, I will want to order that next time too. Oh, the meal comes with rice and soup (it changes).
