The best thing about Mongolian BBQ is getting to enjoy a big, all-you-can-eat stir-fry meal without having to chop anything. Just grab a plate, pile on a wide assortment of meats and vegetables, add sauce (we recommend spicy hot Szechuan with extra garlic) and hand it to the stir-fry chef. Minutes later, your steaming hot plate will arrive at your table along with a stuffed dumpling, a ball of steamed rice and sesame pocket bread. It costs extra to go through the line more than once, but we doubt you'll need to.
