Hollywood Mongolian Grill

Bleck! Pretty gross. Extra, extra generic mongolian spot with limited veggie options. The noodles are thick and chalcky. The place is indoors with three other food spots, so dining in isnt too special.

First I would like to say there were bugs all over the plates where we were trying to get and we just see ants!!! They had no intent to clean eveb after I said you have bugs on the food!!! The customer service doesnt exist! The one guy serving the noodles took the playlte from my coworker becaude he thought she was stealing! What tha??? Stealing noodles??? I hate it there!!!

We came here last night and seriously I’ve had better Mongolian. We just ate that and not the Chinese. I don’t like how the sauces weren’t out. We paid a lot of money and we walked away hungry. I don’t think that’s what’s suppose to happen.

The sign for the Grill is posted over the bathrooms and I used to think this was a mistake. After eating there I realize this is exactly where the sign belongs. The food is greasy and inedible. The ‘meat’ is almost completely fat and the vegetable selection awful. My fiancé ate at the cheesestake place next to it and said that was alright, he fell sick an hour later. Seriously, in Hollywood there are so many good places to eat (that don’t cost an arm and a leg) that you should never have any reason to eat here.

If you want to eat garbage from an unclean kitchen, in an unclean environment, maybe you should come here.

Not as many veggies as I’d like to choose from, but still what I’d expect. Same with the sauces, few maybe 5 kinds. It wasn’t anything to rant and rave about but for $ 9.21 I would have expected a little more from Hollywood and Highland. If you’re looking for cheap get a taco or pizza, if you want a lot of food (pending your balancing skills) go here and bite the $ 10 bullet.

Disgusting food and very rude customer service. The people working there are not interested in your satisfaction and experience which is why it explains the horrible tasting food they serve. After this experience I’ve had I would never recommend this place to anyone not even my worst enemy.

Gawd this place is awful! worst than the one in 1000 Oaks, horrible tasting I had to drown my noodles with cock sauce and even that didn’t help much.

The team here didn’t seem very happy for my business. Even though noone else was there, they seemed troubled by my being there and placing an order despite me being friendly. They also charge $ 3 for a 20 oz Snapple, which is unusually high.
People visiting the area might come by here once for a quick bite and be fine, but as a local I’d consider the dozens of other nearby places, before going back to Hollywood Mongolian BBQ.

haha. This place was a little nuts. When I arrived with my girlfriend a bus of Asian tourist had been dropped off seconds after we got there. The place was empty (It was New Years Day). So we got to look in bewilderment at the vague instructions for about 20 seconds before a mob of about 30 – 40 Asian tourist shoved us aside to jump into line. It was hard to get an objective opinion about the place or the staff. They were bombarded all at once by shovey tourists who knew exactly what they were doing. We didn’t seem to follow the procedure exactly how it was meant to be but we got it. Food was ok but it seemed like a VERY small amount for the price.
Pros:
–Decent food
–Quick
–Cooked fresh right in front of you
Cons:
–The place has an almost conveyor belt-​like system of producing food which isn’t always best for quality (but that’s just how these places do it)
–Small amount of food for the price.
— I almost wasn’t going to mention that the seating is dirty. It’s basically a cafeteria. You should expect that when you walk in

It was alright.
Less than $ 10 for a plate of food. The food wasn’t spectacular and the utensils provided was less than adequate. Overall the experience was acceptable. It was the really lively extrovert behind the counter taking the orders that made this place okay. I had the chicken kabob, you get your choice of side dishes.
There’s indoor and outdoor seating, it’s in the little food court area that is all the way out in the boonies past the sandwiches place. Keep walking make a right, go down the passageway and on the outside opposite of the Dolby complex on the 3^rd floor you’ll find this place. Who was the architect for this place? Anyway, the Great Steak and Potato is down there also.

Good one… both the guys were very helpful… a bit expensive.

Disappointing at best. For the cost ($ 21 for two people, one egg roll, and one drink) the quality was vastly underrated. My boyfriend couldn’t even finish his orange chicken. The rice was palatable however the peas were weird and solid. Would not go back :(.

1) Place meat in bowl.
2) Make a fist.
3) Press meat flat into bowl.
4) Add more.
5) Repeat.
6) Add veggies. (They take care of the rest — get everything: garlic, spicy, everything.)
7) Throw a buck into the tip jar for the cook.
8) Enjoy!
lol @ the reviewer talkin’ about the dirty looks. I only get them from the lady. Whatev, though — I want my money’s worth.
She was taken completely aback once when I ordered kimchee. She’s like — it’s spicy. I’m like — okay (it’s not, anyway.) Then she watched me to see if I’d eat it or maybe to see if I even knew what I’d ordered.
You know what this white boy did?
He ate it!
With chopsticks, no less!
That’s right — I ate the kimchee! I swear I did, I did, I did. I ate it with chopsticks — heck, I ate my whole meal with chopsticks! Fork be damned!
Hope they don’t put up a «No Fisting» sign now.

Yum Yum! This place is the bomb! You get a huge portion cause you pack it and prep it youself. They flavor it the way you want it. I love it spicy! You gotta have it when your in Hollywood.

We were starving after we got off the tour bus and saw this place and went in. For about $ 9 you get a relatively small bowl and get to fill it with frozen meats and a few veggie selections… they only had one type of noodles to choose from. Turned out it was enough food but it wasn’t the best tasting thing. If you’re really starved this will do, but you can probably do better in so many other places.

it was a good choice!.. i felt dumb pounding the meat down,…but in the end its worth it
you start with a bowl then u choose ur meats then ur veggies then the noodles and sauces. its like teppanyaki… sort of. lol its good… u can pack ur bowl with a whole bunch of crap! and stuff ur face afterwards…

The biggest drawback about a mongolian bbq joint is exactly the «small bowl and having to stuff the meat» part. Every second of your hard work, the guy across the counter and that lady at the cash register is giving you the dirtiest look on the face of the earth. I just don’t get it. If they want everybody to walk in there and eat like 12-​year old school girls (gently toss in 5 pieces of meat and the rest of the vegies only to receive a dinky pathetic plate at the end), why in the world do they even serve such food? I’d pay extra 2 dollars to be able to get a full plate without having to deal with the dirty look. But no such option. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. It takes the fun out of making your bowl and eating mongolian bbq. Dirty looks… make me not wanna go back… And trust me, no i did not stuff it to some incredibly gigantic heap of meats and vegies.

I work at Hollywood & Highland and get sick of the food choices quickly as they are mostly fast cheap and greasy. This place has been around for years and is hidden away next to the bathroom on the 3^rd floor of the mall. Small bowls means you have to STUFFFFFF the frozen meat down with your fist. Pound it baby until it’s overflowing with meat. Then add the veges until they are spilling over, then the guy adds the sauces and noodles. Ask for it spicy, trust me, you need as much possible flavor as possible with this stuff. It turns out pretty good. For a dollar more you can get rice and soup — I pass on this option. If you have to eat in this area, try this place sometime, it’s better than quiznos and all the cardboard pizza joints

One of Hollywood’s best kept secrets, it is one the best places to eat and the best mongolian I’ve ever had. I used to work in the mall and I would eat regularly here. It can be a bit pricey for a plate and a drink, but the food is so amazing that it makes it worth it. Like at most mongolian places you choose your own ingredients and they cook it on a round grill. They have a great selection of meats and vegetables, and what ever they use to cook it in gives it it’s signature flavor. I highly recommend eating here.
