Ayce, it's a great concept! I just think it needs to be executed a little better, and this place could catch on. First..the staff: Very welcoming. Showed us the set up and explained the menu and cooking process. Seated us with menus. There are also menu items and great variety of adult libations to choose from, besides the make your own stir fry. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's very casual. Has a fast food joint feel with booths and small tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] In conversation with the manager, the owner has all 3 establishments made up from the former friendly's location in middle island. Crazy Crepe (awesome), Meltology (also very good) and now this new concept which has yet to take off, probably because of location. I will say, I am definitely coming back another time for drinks and food. Rest of our experience..[[HIGHLIGHT]]tables were clean, but floor was sticky in spots.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food selections in the food bar didn't look very fresh. But they were delicious. (Yes we took the chance..we were there and all in) Salad bar is free with meal, but it looked like it hadn't been touched all day so we avoided it. Amazing variety of spices and sauces to make your creation. All up to you! So if you read a review that says the food was flavorless or bland..it's that persons fault for not jazzing up their meal. They only cook what they are given by your own selection. Proteins available include chicken, pork, beef and meatballs. You can add shrimp or scallops for $5 upgrade. There's no rice in the food bar, but if you ask when you get to cooking station, it's available. There's also a soup of the day included, which was tomato. Looked and smelled good, but didn't have any. My main disappointment was the food selections looked like alot of canned vegetables and fruits. Except the bok choy & onions. And the proteins looked like they were sitting out a while, and we were literally only people there. Granted it was a very rainy Wednesday late afternoon, and we were inbetween work meetings. I hope the manager takes our feedback to the owner, and the food selections improve to impress. I would definitely come back. And plan on it at least for drinks, which are always 2 for 1!

What a unique experience on Long Island! The Experience: 1. Pick your proteins, veggies, noodles, sauces... 2. Bring the raw items and sauce to the cooking station... 3. Watch the cook stir fry your creation in seconds! For a small upcharge, you can add seafood. There are delicious appetizers and desserts as well (shout out to the UNPASSABLE items: Spinach Rangoons and S'mores Crepes, WOAH!) Can't forget the cocktails or milkshakes! Ingredients were fresh, and everything tasted great, the rice was hard but it happens, everything else was perfection. Staff: Staff is super friendly, and they all do an awesome job. The business was opened by the same people over at Meltology. *Please tip! We made sure to give a tip to the stir fry cook in addition to our waitress.... everyone works so hard to make sure there's a great experience for all! Seating: There is indoor/outdoor seating and plenty of room at that. I do enjoy the comfortable booths that felt kind of separated from everything around you. Btw, they do have tvs, so if there's a game on, I'm assuming that's what they are there for (caught them while taking pics of the large space). Before I forget! Tons of parking (this is a large shopping center).

Absolute worst buffet I have ever been to. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My family and I came at 6pm on a Saturday night and we were the only customers there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There were only a few employees working but they were hopping back and forth from this restaurant to the crepe shop next door so most of the time, my family and I were completely alone. The employees were even wearing the shirts from the other store so it felt like this Mongolian grill was just a side business for them. Our family opted for the seafood add on for $5 so our total for dinner was $27. The salmon was inedible, definitely frozen and the scallops were so tiny. All the meat options were dry and chewy. Surprisingly, the best meat I had wasn't even meat at all - it was the imitation chicken. That was flavorful and not dry. None of the options were fresh, even the vegetables! The broccoli was soft but somehow no flavor was absorbed into it. The sauce options were really good so it made for a good stir fry but for $27, it was just an overpriced plate of noodles.

My boyfriend and I came here for dinner! This spot is shared with Meltology. The entrance is on the right! There are clear signs that state this, so you won't get confused! We were welcomed and brought to our table. The process was easily explained as we haven't been here before. You can go up to the buffet as many times as you want. Pick your noodles, veggies, protein and sauce. Bring it to the grill table and wait. Seafood is a small $5 upcharge. There is also a small salad bar and tomato soup available. I don't see how tomato soup goes with stir-fry, but it's still available. We ordered our drinks. My boyfriend chose a long island iced tea and I had some banana cocktail. I don't remember the name. He didn't like his drink at all. It said it tasted like it was from a mix. My drink was okay..a little sweet but okay. We also placed an order of fried green beans. I enjoyed them! Sorry, I do not have pictures of the buffet, but lots of options are available for you to chose. I did the seafood option, so that was primarily my stir-fry dishes. Shrimp, scallops and salmon! Tilapia was also a choice. The seafood is located near the grill. You have to show the chef your seafood card and they will add it for you. Lots of veggies to choose from and sauces! My favorite sauce was the spicy honey garlic. It paired well with everything. My boyfriend enjoyed as well! We did notice that depending on which chef cooks your stir-fry, your meal will taste different. For example...my boyfriend said that the first time his steak was over cooked and the other times it was perfect. For me, the first time I only got a few pieces of shrimp and other times I got a lot more. Also the first time the sauce was a bit burned for him as it was on the grill too long. We definitely preferred one chef over the other. That's really the luck of the grill though as to who will cook it up. We both went up 3 times. I started small and increased as I went, my boyfriend did the opposite. There is something for everyone depending on your preferences. Even for the kiddos. Overall, we did enjoy our dinner. We agreed that we would come back.

This place recently opened in the same location as Meltology. The space got split in half with Meltology on the left (entrance is in the front) and AYCE Mongolian BBQ on the right (entrance is on the side). The restaurant shares the beverage area. Keep in mind, the restaurant recently opened so it still has kinks to work out. Not sure if it's soft opening or not. We were welcomed and brought to our table. They asked if we wanted any beverages and explained the process. Pick your items: salad, meats, noodles, vegetables then pick your sauce or condiments, wait for the employee to grill your food on the round grill top (basically stir fry). Due to the constant usage, the tongs needs to be maintained (it was a bit sticky). 1) Salad (2 types of greens + 7 ingredients) + salad dressings 2) Limited meat options (4) + Tofu 3) Noodles (4) 4) Vegetables (21) The service was good and the servers checked in and ask if you would like a refill. At the time, the refill is free though double check first. Have to come back and see if they will have more ingredients in the future.

Lunch $17.99 11AM - 3:15PM AYCE! (All You Can Eat) Dinner $21.99 3:30 - Close Carry out $17.99 *one trip or take out* Since buffets are on strike; I'm hyped this place is open! We stopped in for lunch had 2 serving go arounds, soup & salad- see the photos they speak for themselves! The sauce bar is my favorite I wish I had one at home. The drink menu is welcoming to a "sit & stay a while" vibe. I will have to bring my mom to enjoy one of those fishbowls. Deff a game changer in the area & I'm looking forward to trying all of the sauces!

I was surprised and delighted to find this restaurant in my neighborhood, and decided to give it a try. It was my lunch on Friday, and there was very little customers inside. I've had other Mongolian BBQ before, and I assumed this place was run by Asian people just like any other Asian restaurants. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see young American guys running the shop. They were very friendly and attentive. I could see they were trying to make customers happy. I want them to be successful, but the food was just OK. Some items were empty and some looked too dry. I've tried 2 plates, and I kept getting the black residue from the grill. It looks like they need to clean the grill better after each serving. And their cooking skill needs to improve. I hope they get better, and do well.
