Review from Suze D.

What a great way to fill up on good healthy food at super reasonable prices!
We've been back several times because it's just so fast and easy and inexpensive. Ten bucks gets you a nice big bowl of veggies and meat. Soup and salad is also included. If you're starvin, you can go back for more.. the all you can eat price is 14.
I agree with the previous review, nothing special about the ambiance but whatever, good healthy food, and you don't have to clean up after yourself,... and it's cheap!
I really enjoy the creative side of it as well.. trying new combinations of sauces/veggies/meats every time we go.
If I worked nearby I would probably be there every day for lunch! -

Could be a lot better....
Hanugin Mongolian BBQ is a decent place to have lunch, but if you've been to Great Wall on Denman you realize that this place is clearly second rate.
Like all Mongolian setups you pile vegetables, meat and sauce into a bowl BUT:
The problem is the configuration and organization of the food trays...
It's way too packed in there AND in the wrong order as meat is at the end of line not the beginning. When patrons arrive they go for the meat and sauce first and inevitablely you get chaos with as little as 5 people lining up.
Another problem is that bowls are shallow and narrow as opposed to wider and flatter. This causes an inordinate amount of spillage and mess as patrons try and fill their bowls and things drop into other bins. It can truly be a mess.
Management is telegraphing that they are just overly cheap. They give you a shallow, narrow bowl and at the end after they've fried up what you selected they give you a shallow, wider bowl. COME ON PEOPLE!
Also surprisingly, they offer you a bowl of soup or salad - the salad looks cross-contaminated and disgusting during the course of lunch. The soup is always unappetizing. Why offer this at all?
They have some quality toppings such as shaved beef, chicken, lamb, mushrooms and water chestnuts, but they lack tomatoes!
Management here need to get some decent bowls - deeper and wider - yes patrons will be able to get more toppings but there will be far less wastage and frustration and mess.
Also instead of offering a communal disgusting soup bowl and a mediocre salad why not serve each customer a soup bowl from the kitchen. The offering of a side salad is also not quite right as you end up stir frying everything anyway. Why not add better items - i.e. replace croutons (who goes to Mongolie for croutons) for tomatoes... -
Review from J G.
You participate in the creation and preparation of your own delicious entree. You select the meats, add the freshly prepared vegetables, and choose the sauces. Your special entree is ready to be cooked right in front of you, as you watch, just tell the chef how you like it.
Not sure you are ready to create solo? Ask the chef at the grill for advice. You won't regret it. The food is tasty and worth the price. I've been a few times and will go again.
Room for improvement: The restaurant layout is awkward and the vending machine in the middle of the dining room is distracting. The servers are inconsistent and generally seem inexperienced. Paying for a meal is more difficult than necessary.
