Genghis Grill

My first trip here, but not my last. I have had family members talk this place up and finally gave it a shot. I’ve been to many mongolian grills like this before and usually enjoy them
When I walked in I was greeted by a employee right away. He asked me if it was my first visit, to which I replied «Yes». He than walked me through the process of ordering and how everything worked. The service was great the whole time. Constantly being checked on, water refilled, polite, everything you should expect.
I picked my size and started builiding my bowl. Was nice to see some options I am not use to and the fact that the meat wasn’t frozen like some places I’ve been to. The chicken and pork was already marinated which was nice, theres scallops available and even shrimp (but just for dinner). After you load your meat, seasoning is next which I haven’t seen at a mongolian grill before. Probably close to 12 options with basics like salt, pepper, than going to flavored salts, spices, etc. Next step is veggies followed by choosing what starches which you circle on a card. i chose udon noodles and fried rice and had them add a egg to it.
I waited at the table for it to be cooked and delivered to me which didn’t take long. Everything tasted fresh and pretty good. I maybe overdid the sauce, but thats my own fault. That’s the thing about these type of places you can mess it up yourself by weird combinations or overdueing something. Lesson learned next time for what sauces. I also didnt notice it at the time, but in the sauce section there was spoons to taste the sauces instead of blindly adding them to your meal.
I’ll be back next time and more prepared. Give it a shot and come hungry.

Really disappointed this last trip. It was snowing outside and they had the back door open. It was freezing. Asked our waitress about it and really didn’t understand the reason it was open during a blizzard. They ended up closing it and it than smelt like sewer. So nasty sewer smell or below zero. Need to work out the plumbing and get rid of the smell and make the temperature comfortable.
Not sure why it smelt like sewer but that a little concerning at a restaurant.
Adding a star. Food is awesome!
