Rancho Cordova used to have an excellent Mongolian BBQ spot more than a decade ago and I haven't seen any open up since so my ears perked up when I heard a new joint was opening up in Rancho. I could tell as soon as I walked through the door that I was going to have a fantastic experience. The restaurant was clean and the ingredients bar was well maintained. The staff was courteous and of course what mattered most was that the food was delicious. I almost forgot to mention that the prices were reasonable. A welcome addition to Rancho community. I look forward to returning and testing out different combinations. read more

Love Mongolian bbq! When you enter your pay for your meal first. I came at lunch which was $15.50 for a bowl. It includes a bowl of white rice and your choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup. I've seen other places offer fried rice and wonton chips but they don't here. For Mongolian bbq you grab a bowl and fill it with your choice of noodles, meat, veggies and sauces in a buffet style line. Then you hand it off for them to cook for you. I was surprised how clean they kept the food area. It would be nice if they had sauce recommendations. Definitely takes time to figure out how you like your bowl made! read more

M Grill Mongolian BBQ - Asian Fusion Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

I enjoy this place and it reminds me of my old favorite mongolian food spot in the bay area from 20 years ago. Here they have Fantastic customer service. The coldbar and condiment table has what I need to make a tasty lunch! The food is great. It comes with white rice and soup. If you order a soft drink, you get free refill. I hope great sucess for this business in rancho cordova. We want to continue to enjoy it. I wish some of the customers behaved better and weren't messy due to over-piling or using the line backwards. read more

Oh hell yeah. Was pumped for a new AYCE restaurant, but Mongolian?? I'm a fan. Place was really clean, had just opened up a few days earlier (basted on our visit, which was mid Jan). Lots of protein to choose from: chicken, pork, beef, shrimp and I liked the noodles but they were really hard to separate and were really long. If they had just chopped the contents once or twice for smaller noodles it would have been easier to fill my bowl. Veggie choices weee similar to other places I've visited, broccoli, carrots, bamboo shoots, onions... The sauces are pretty standard but we did notice that there was no teriyaki! Like I said, this draft has been pending since idk when. Tipping is optional but recommended when the guy is grill it up. Overall the I thought it was great but those missing sauces were noticeable (they may have expanded by the time I posted this but if not, please add: ) Also missing from other places was fried rice & an egg roll. They did have white rice and soup but nothing t read more

M Grill Mongolian BBQ - Where Zin & Olsen meet, off 50. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

My husband has been craving Mongolian food lately and came across M Grill Mongolian Grill, which just so happened to be only about 10 minutes from our house. Perfect timing! Because the other closest Mongolian spot that we like is all the way in Roseville which is a bit of a drive for us. According to our server, they opened about a month ago and are local and family-owned, which we love supporting! The restaurant is in a somewhat quiet plaza, but it's right next to Chipotle off of Zinfandel, so there's plenty of foot traffic and lots of parking, which is always a plus. Walking in, the space is extremely clean with plenty of seating. Check-in and the menu are immediately to the left when you enter, making the process very easy and straightforward. My husband and I were especially excited that it's AYCE for $18.50 for dinner and weekends. Such a steal! The price also includes an optional bowl of rice and soup (egg drop or hot & sour). We opted for rice and two egg drop soups, and wow... we were both very impressed. The egg drop soup was flavorful and comforting. We liked it better than other places that offer egg drop soups. Definitely a must to get when coming here! The ingredient bar had a great selection of proteins, veggies, and sauces to customize your bowl before it's cooked on the Mongolian grill. Everything looked fresh and well stocked. The servers were also very attentive, constantly checking in to make sure everyone had drink refills, rice, soup, and anything else they needed. The only thing I think would elevate this place even more is a sauce guide that I've seen at other Mongolian grill places. Something that shows how to combine sauces for different flavor profiles (sweet & sour, spicy, etc.). That would be super helpful, especially for first-timers. Overall, we're thrilled to finally have a local Mongolian grill spot close to home. We're already telling all of our friends and family to check it out, and we'll definitely be back! read more

Their price for an all-you-can-eat place is extremely reasonable. I really liked both of their complementary soups. The servers were very attentive to refilling water and also new customers that had just walked in. They were also really attentive to make sure that the buffet line was stocked. Be sure to say thank you to those that are running the grill. I left stuffed for a very, very reasonable price. read more

M Grill Mongolian BBQ - Bar - Asian Fusion Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

A new family run Mongolian BBQ opened up right next to the chipotle on Zinfandel. I decided to try it for lunch, and it was very good, with just a couple of small glitches. The price is very reasonable, lunch is until 3 PM Monday through Friday, and then the rest of the time it's the dinner menu. Lunch is one serving, dinner, which is just a few dollars more, is an expanded menu, and is also all you can eat. One bowl at lunchtime was enough for me. With lunch, you also get a small bowl of rice, and a choice of either hot and sour or egg flower soup. The egg flower soup was very good. It's your typical Mongolian BBQ, where you go down the buffet line, selecting your meat, veggies, and then your sauce. The meats were good, and the veggies were very fresh. Unfortunately, the meats on the line were not labeled. I obviously knew which one was the beef, but I wasn't able to tell whether the others were chicken, turkey, or pork. They also had hot dogs on the meat line. I tried the hot dogs, but they didn't "do it" for me. To me, hot dogs just don't go with Mongolian BBQ. I'm glad I tried it, but I will skip them next time. When you get to the grill, the sauces are labeled, but there are no instructions. Other Mongolian, BBQ places, for example, they will have like a little recipe card, saying if you want this type of sauce, do a ladle of this, a ladle of that, etc. There's none of that here. Just the sauces that are labeled. Also, when he cooks your food on the grill, afterwards they put it onto a plate. I prefer my Mongolian BBQ in a bowl, because it's easier to eat. These are all small things that I did notice. Overall, the meal was very good. Quite a few restaurants have cycled through this space over the years, I really hope that this place makes it. Thank you for a good meal. read more

Tried out the new Mongolian bbq place Price is good. $15 weekday lunch (1 bowl) $18 dinner and weekends (all you can eat) Staff is very nice and friendly. Food: Overall for the price. It's good. But all in all it does miss the mark. Carbs include noodles. Protein: pork, beef, imitation crab, sausage and small shrimp. There's a variety of veggies as well. Sauces: garlic, ginger, hot oil, soy, Mongolian bbq. The shrimp was covered in ice so it's annoying to try and scoop a bunch only to get 1bshrimp and a spoonful of ice. The sauces are very liquid heavy so you want to get multiple scoops just to have flavor. And when the chef cooks your food, he uses water so that dilutes the flavor more. The sauces are salt heavy so you're missing anything that will balance out the salt. No sweet sauce, no thicker sauce, and the hot oil doesn't have enough spice to offset either. So that's the big con is lack of balance in flavor palette - for comparison. If you've been to the hibachi grill and buffet on sunrise, they use a house sauce while cooking so it adds flavor on top of the garlic oil. read more

M Grill Mongolian BBQ - Asian Fusion Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

I have been looking for a new Mongolian bbq restaurant as all the other ones around the Sacramento area have gotten really expense and quality went down. This restaurant was refreshingly clean and had all the ingredients we like to put in our bowl. Instead of an eggroll and fried rice, this restaurant offered soup (egg drop or hot and sour) and rice. I was use to more sauce options when trying to come up with a mix for the bowl. My first bowl was a little bland but second was too salty. Overall it was a decent price for AYCE and I would come back if I'm in the area. read more

M Grill Mongolian BBQ - Asian Fusion Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

Plenty of meat, vegetable and seasoning options to create your bowl. Once cooked it's served back to you on a plate, a nice change. Inside is very clean and the staff is friendly. Dinner is all you can eat and comes with soup and white rice. Sauces are not watered down so you can taste what you put in your creation. One of the better Mongolian places I've tried since the Great Wall closed in Arden years ago. Heavy sigh. read more

First time visit. Pretty good. Very nice service. Food was great. You pay first, they assign you a table, then you load up your bowl and hand over to the person cooking. I got the pork and lamb, some tofu, diff veggies, variety of sauces. The staff was attentive, asked how my food was and refilled my soda. I went in when it wasn't too busy, but I imagine it gets packed during lunch and dinner. I will visit again. read more

M Grill Mongolian BBQ - Plate with pork, lamb and tofu - Asian Fusion Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

Great value in the Rancho Cordova area. Who would've thought that a Mongolian BBQ restaurant can be charming, delicious, and fairly priced? Unlike other AYCE restaurants, M Grill priced their lunch and dinner with consideration in today's economy. Meat selections of chicken, beef, lamb, and pork. We were surprised to see shrimp, imitation crab, and chicken sausage amongst the selections. The service is fast and efficient. The food is cooked quickly and efficiently. The ambiance is no-frill and utilitarian. They did not increase prices to pay for useless decors. Now that we've discovered this restaurant, we will be back frequently and telling everyone about it. Great job and keep up the excellent work! read more

M Grill Mongolian BBQ - Stir fry - Asian Fusion Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

This Mongolian BBQ spot just opened next door to Chipotle, and we were pleasantly surprised. My husband ordered a to-go bowl, which came with a small side of white rice and a choice of soup (miso or hot & sour). He chose the hot & sour, which was flavorful and comforting. The portion size was generous for the price ($15.50) and definitely filling. They offer clear and reasonable pricing, which I appreciated. Lunch (Monday-Friday, 11am-3pm) is $15.50 per bowl, with kids pricing available, and to-go bowls are priced the same. Dinner and weekends offer an all-you-can-eat option for $18.50, which is a great value if you're really hungry. Drinks are $2.99, and kids' prices are clearly listed by age. The concept is simple and fun: you build your own bowl, then hand it to an employee who cooks it fresh right in front of you on a large flat top. There were lots of protein options, and the noodles were thick and hearty. I tried the food and really liked that it was very flavorful without being overly salty, which can sometimes be an issue at places like this. Service really stood out--everyone was kind, friendly, and welcoming, especially for a brand-new spot. There's a small seating area inside with tables and chairs if you want to eat there, but it also works great for takeout. Overall, great value, solid portions, tasty food, and friendly service. We'll definitely be back. read more

Might be the best mongolian bbq i've ever had. I was really impressed. We went in for the AYCE option which I believe was around $18 per person. They offer rice and two choices of soups to start with. My husband ordered the egg drop while I got the hot & sour soup. Both tasted pretty good. Everything was honestly really good and easy to curate. The noodles were perfect. I usually like to eat and gravitate towards more protein but I couldn't get enough of the noodles read more

The staff was nice, and the food was fresh. It's nice to have a Mongolian BBQ is our part of town. I felt like there could have been a few more offerings for sauces to put in the bowl before cooking. I'm also used to a few more offerings of meats/veggies. But, I would still go back read more

The foods and service were excellent. We purchased the all you can eat but was full after the first course. Ambiance might have been a little better. Over all I would still rank it a five and would recommend it to friends and family. read more

M Grill Mongolian BBQ - Asian Fusion Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

I don't write reviews often, but M Grill Mongolian BBQ absolutely deserves one. Let me start with this--I'm not a big fan of Chinese food, and Mongolian BBQ has never really been my go-to. But this place completely changed my perspective. The food is exceptional. Everything is fresh. The vegetables are crisp and vibrant, the meats are high quality, and while they may be lightly frozen for preparation, they're nothing like the hard, low-grade cuts you find elsewhere. You can taste the difference immediately. And for those who love seafood--my wife especially--the shrimp is a huge bonus and just as fresh and flavorful. The noodles? Incredible. Perfect texture, rich flavor, and they bring everything together in a way that honestly surprised me. Every little detail that I usually don't like about Mongolian BBQ... they got right here. And I have to say this--the egg drop soup is amazing. I mean really amazing. Rich, comforting, and full of flavor. That alone is worth coming back for. Now, let's talk about the ambiance--this is not a place you go for a romantic dinner or a quiet, personal experience. It's simple, straightforward, and no-frills. But that's not why you come here. You come here to eat. And if you're hungry--really hungry--this is the place to go. The portions, the flavor, the freshness, and the price point all come together perfectly. The prices are very reasonable for the quality you're getting. What stands out the most is this: every complaint I've ever had about Mongolian BBQ... they solved it here. This place didn't just meet expectations--it exceeded them. If you think Mongolian BBQ isn't your thing, give M Grill a try. It might completely change your mind like it did mine. read more

The food was great and ambiance good as well. You have all your typical add ones for your plate with chicken, beef amd shrimp and plenty of vegetables to choose from.

I initially noticed the cleanliness of this establishment (there was also a green PASS inspection sticker prominently displayed, which I found reassuring because I read the restaurant inspection results every Friday). Upon arrival, there were only two other tables occupied, but during my meal the entire restaurant filled up with other customers. The food choices were fresh and did not have that 'picked over' look when a buffet is untended too long, and the bowls were delicious. I went on a Sunday, so I had two bowls and couldn't finish the last three bites. Great food at a great price! read more

First time experiencing there I didn't know what to do, the cashier was helpful and my bowl turned out really good

A new mongolian bbq grill has opened up and it's family owned! The pricing is super reasonable and the restaurant itself is clean. Our cashier was super sweet and explained to which sauce ratio was the best. We got a togo bowl and it came with a complimentary soup/rice! The food was absolutely delicious I would recommend adding more sauce for more flavor! read more

So happy to see this new Mongolian BBQ near where I live! Our go-to was all the way in Folsom, but now we've got a new option! Ordered through DoorDash. I've never tried any Mongolian BBQ through DD before but their DD set up made it pretty easy with just a couple of minor glitches. I don't eat noodles with my Mongolian BBQ. I prefer cabbage and bean sprouts as my base, and I was able to order it that way. I selected my favorite veggies and meat and asked them to add pineapple if it was available because it wasn't an option included on the DD menu. That was minor glitch #1. Minor glitch #2 is that although my order did come with a small container of steamed rice I would have liked to have the option to order a full side of rice. I got about three lunch- sized portions out of my order but only about one portion of rice. I made it work and the food and flavor were delicious. I was worried it would be too salty since I didn't know their sauce profiles at all and had never been to this location, but it was not too salty at all. I appreciate when I can add soy sauce to my own liking rather than having the food arrive over-seasoned. I will definitely order DD from here again. Loved it. I kind of wish there was an option to order soup with DD like they have for in-person takeout but that's okay. Suggestions I have for them: - include pineapple on the DD menu choices - if you offer fresh ginger on the buffet please also add to DD menu choices - if you offer chili oil on the buffet, add that to DD menu choices. - consider adding the option to order a side of rice. Can't wait to try them in person next! read more

The customer service is great. Friendly, and chill vibes. Great conversation! Very clean, set up easy and fantastic quality of food. Add what you want, but definitely add veggies. Great cook, and overall first impression. Been in Rancho Cordova for a week, and this was hands down the best place I've ate. The food is delicious, and best part is you chose the food so the if it tastes bad it's because of you! lol. The exact type of food and service I want when I'm on the road away from my family. Thank you! read more
