This place will surprise you with how good it is. If you judged it by the exterior you may never stop. Don’t let it fool your it’s excellent! Choose your own stir fry ingredients and they’ll have it cooked in a few minutes. Veggies were fresh, meat variety was plentiful, and the sauces were good! Price is pretty decent as well. Definitely worth every penny. Come hungry!

Very friendly as soon as we walked in the door! Asked about our seating preferences and then asked if we have been there before. We hadn't...she then explained that we pick what we want and hand them the plate and they cook it right in front of us and then bring us the food. They also checked on us to make sure we didn't needs refills or a thing else. My daughter and I both enjoyed our meals...the veggies and meat all tasted fresh and with the sauce we put on it gave it very good flavor! --She wants to go back! Thank you ladies!! ;) - oh, masks are now optional, but they did ask for us to wear gloves when getting our food from the buffet.

Great food at reasonable prices. It is a buffet of raw ingredients that the guests assemble to make a custom dish with the guests choice of sauce. Wait staff were fine.

Excellent service and great food! Small little restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the area.

Place is so dirty. Cob webs hanging on the bathroom ceiling, filth all over the floor (even though it's empty). Butttt. The food is made fresh and tastes delicious! But be easy on the sauce. No more than half a bowl unless you love salt.

The food is awesome, location is very clean, staff is health conscious.Lots of options to make a meal you will enjoy

Excellent food and very friendly staff. I love making my own combination of sauce as you have to pick your own ingredients (protein, veggies, sauce) and they fry it for you. You might have to try a few combos before finding the best recipe for yourself. The desserts are yummy as well.

Love the food, all-you-can-eat Mongolian/ Chinese food. You pick the ingredients, they cook it fast and fresh!!!

I decided to try this place out based on its reviews. The food was sooo fresh and delicious. They have fresh vegetables, meats,seafood and a variety of tasty sauces to pair it with. My food came within 15 mins and it was hot and flavorful. Will patronize again. Server was very friendly and explained how it worked to me as this was my first time. Highly recommend this place.

Not very busy. Must wear mask until you get your food. Employees all had masks on
