Review from Arsalan M.

The idea behind this grill is awesome but the quality of food is bad. The food was cooked on a super hot 'grill' which caused the noodles to burn. And there was a baseline aftertaste which was very unpleasant. The ingredients themselves looked relatively fresh but not necessarily super appetizing. The staff was super helpful and provided good service.

The best part about this place is the fact that it can accomodate groups and that I have had some great times here with great friends.
If you're looking for good food with flavour, skip this place. It is way overpriced. They are closing in on $20 for the all-you-can-eat stir fry. It lacks flavour, despite the fact that they offer a large selection of sauces to season your dish.
The patio here is nice and the beer is pretty cheap. It certainly caters to the university crowd. I`ll likely be back, against my better judgement, only for great times with friends though, and I just might skip the food. -

This place is a popular place for birthdays, families, and groups. They have a lot of seating and it is quite roomy. They have outdoor seating too, usually popular for events held there.
I always do allyoucan eat here. There is a variety of vegetables, meat, and sauces that you can add into bowls, and you line up at a circular counter around a huge grill that ~3 chefs control. Sometimes the food is a little overcooked, but usually it ends up tasting great. They actually don't have a really big selection of veggies and meats, but they have the essentials.
It gets a little crowded sometimes though in the food area, and there could be some waiting here and there. It's like a buffet, you sit down in a group, but finish your plates at different times, so sometimes, not everyone is at the table.
The service is decent, they have a bar area too. I don't really recall the prices, it's not too expensive though. -

What Waterloo needs most is decent restaurants.Mongolian Grill is not helping this issue. The premise behind Mongolian grill is that you pick out your ingredients/sauces and pass then to a "chef" who operates a teppanyaki of some sorts. There is a large selection of ingredients and sauces to choose from. However, most of the ingredients are lacking in freshness.
Going to Mongolian Grill is usually hit or miss depending on the freshness of the ingredients of that day and the chef's competence at the grill. Overall I would avoid Mongolian Grill. -

I agree with Nokolaos. The food here is sub par. Good for customization if you have a group of people with some fussy eaters, but overall, lacking in pizzaz. In addition to freshness issues, I find the Mongolian lacking in flavor. The sauces for example don't really add much to the stirfry and unless i drown my food in them, I can barely taste them.

Pretty good food and interesting idea, but fairly pricey. The price has been increasing lately.
