    Came here with the family to celebrate one of sisters birthday early! Build your own bowl with choice of meats, veggies, noodles and sauces. A regular bowl is $15.95 and a large bowl for $18.95. | September 6, 2025 |

    Regular bowl
    Jillian C.

    Located inside of Serramonte Mall. My family is big on noodles so this is perfect for us. You pay first, they hand you a bowl and you get to freely stack items in your bowl. As long as it fits it the bowl, it counts. I didn't think the portion was going to be that big but even for a regular bowl, once they added noodles it was plenty for 2, maybe 3 people. They do have sauces at the end that you add to the bowl but I wish they would add it during cooking. Once you're done adding items & sauces, they'll take your bowl and dump it onto the cooktop. They add water to the food to steam and cook the veggies. Then they add the noodles & add more water to soften the noodles. This is why I wish adding the sauces could wait until the cooking process. I feel like the flavors get watered down and by the time I get my food, I still add teriyaki sauce & soy sauce to add flavor. Overall, not too bad. I will probably go again because like I said my family loves noodles and the portion is a good size. The mall can get hectic & very busy that parking and seating can be scarce but if you time it right, finding a spot/table can be easy.

    This place is a hidden gem at Serramonte Food court. Out of all the options, I think you get the best bang for your buck here. You pay between $15-$18 to customize your own noodle or rice bowl on the Mongolian grill. There are about 5 different meat options to choose from with many different vegetables. I would recommend stuffing the bowl as much as you can because everything in it gets put on the grill regardless. Because of this, the portion size is generous, capable of feeding two people or having leftovers for one person over the course of 2 days. Once you get your food, there is a sauce station to the side. I think this is VITAL as most of the sauce you select for your bowl will end up being at the bottom of your container. Since all of the options are based on your choices, the flavor will be based on what you pick. I recommend adding the long red peppers to add spice and flavor to the dish. I noticed the difference in taste between the first time and the second time I got a similar combination without it. The line moves pretty quick and the staff are pretty cool about how much you can add to your bowl. If you're getting food from the food court, this place shines bright and doesn't hurt your wallet for what you're getting. I'll choose this place every time hands down.

    You can add as much as you want and the employees even encouraged me to add more! Towards the end, you select which sauces you want to add and I basically got a scoop of every sauce. Despite that, I still felt like I couldn't taste much of the sauces once everything was cooked. There's also another small sauce bar with chili paste, soy sauce, and teriyaki sauce. They definitely helped with the flavor and I overall did enjoy the meat and all the toppings. Great to share with one other person too!

    LOVEEEE THIS PLACE! Always go to when at Serramonte Center. Huge portions for the price & service is quick & friendly.

    Good!!

    Reminds me of the Mongolian bbq in SoCal brea mall. This is pretty close but for some reason they don't offer tomatoes as a vegetable ... otherwise it was pretty comparable and pretty good!!

    Becky V.

    Great fun! Add your own meats and veggies AS MUCH AS YOU CAN Pick from small or large size bowl. However much you think you'll eat, of course large is better value and share your food with someone. If you're light eaters then two people can eat one together They will add noodles and add lot of sauce and cook it for you. Placed in a to go box in the end Set your expectations for food court fast food, you know? Rated for the value and fun of building it yourself Be prepared to wait because you have to stay in line order. Perhaps 15 mins to be done

    BYOB - Build Your Own Bowl! @mongq_serramonte in located inside @serramontecenter where you can create your own Mongolian BBQ with fresh ingredients and meat options! Fun doesn't stop there as workers will help you mix the perfect sauce combo and cook it right in front of you! owner and workers are also very nice! The perfect place to eat after shopping around and walking up an appetite

    Solid Mongolian bbq spot. The place was clean, price was reasonable, and i liked that they added the noodles separately at the end (they let you pile the bowl up without noodles) which is nice. Quick service, I'd come back.

    Diana M.

    Good service and good food with good price. Pack as much as you can and the sauces are pretty great too. Come with noodles! Always a plus.

    Food itself tastes alright. But I ended up throwing away 2/3 of the portion due to excessive amount of blackened charred participles that are unhealthy if consumed. The fryer/griller should do their due diligence to monitor how much charred particles have accumulated on the grill and clean it as often as necessary but they definitely did not do that in my case. I felt that time was wasted, food was wasted, money was wasted and more importantly, it's just unhealthy to be eating this amount of blackened stuff. I probably should've thrown everything away.

    $16.99 for large
    Cathrin P C.

    Okay it's not THAT good as some of the other reviewers are raving about but it's a good option for mall food court choices. To me, this tastes very close to Panda Express or teriyaki chow mein. You have 4 meat options and they're: beef brisket, beef chuck, pork belly, pork loin. They're all shaved very thin and slightly frozen. I would recommend getting the large bowl for $16.99 and the regular is pretty small. Considering that the meat is frozen in round rolls, they take up a lot of space when you try to fill up your bowl. You'll want to make sure you pile your bowl up strategically and definitely fill it up to the max -- trust me, once they throw it on the griddle, all the meat will flatten and seemingly disappear so unless you wanna eat mostly noodles, you'll take my advice. I also added just a little onions, cilantro and mushrooms for flavoring. They will add garlic and all the sauces you need. I can tell they used a lot of msg as seasoning because I was quite thirsty for the entire day afterwards. Service was pretty standard. Wait is fairly quick. Each bowl takes a couple of minutes max to cook. I had a lot of noodles leftover to take home. Give this a try if you're at the mall and need food but I wouldn't go there specifically for an awesome meal.

    Elisa O.

    I love Mongolian bbq and was ecstatic when I saw this gem at the mall! The food was top notch and so flavorful! The ingredients are super fresh and they are generous with their portions. I got a regular but it was enough to feed for two! All the sauces are good and so I get everything cuz I can't decide. With an extra spoonful of garlic and chili since I like my noods with an extra kick! It was delicious and I'll definitely be back!

The space inside is beautifully decorated with a vibrant traditional Chinese aesthetic. They also have a private room available, which is great if you're hosting a larger gathering or special occasion. A super important tip if you're coming here: make sure to pre-order the Peking duck ahead of time. If you wait to order it at the table, it takes a while to prepare. When it arrives, the presentation is amazing, it's served beautifully in a duck-shaped bowl and a nice flower arrangement dish. When you order the duck, they'll ask how you want the remaining bones prepared (either stir-fried or in a soup). I highly recommend opting for the soup! Ordering is easy via a QR code on the table. Since we were doing family style, we ordered 8 dishes in total. Everything we got was really delicious and plated very nicely. A few helpful details for families and diners: -They have high chairs available for kids. -When you're ready to wrap up, the staff packs your leftovers for you. -The restaurant definitely got pretty packed as the evening went on, so reservations are a smart move. -For parking, there is both street parking and a dedicated parking lot, but be sure to check the signs and hours as you'll need to pay for both depending on when you go.

But few realize that the TL is also a cuisine Mecca, a deluge of flavors from every corner of Earth. Case in point, Mongol Cafe, visible from the windows of the 38. I've ordered take out lunches multiple times from here. The brownish burgundy gulyash came with an egg, and had a too-rich flavor in the form of sourness in the sauce, just like my previous Mongolian gulyash experience elsewhere. Not my thing. The Tsuivan is hearty, not noodles the way you'd think, but more like the starchy toothpicks you get when you grate a doughball. Well flavored with the fat of the meats it was cooked with. Very rustic. Very stick to your ribs. The buuz was good. And authentic, filled using chopped meat rather than regular ground meat. Bigger than a typical dumpling. Smaller than a bao. Another basic but hearty dish. Maybe you'll find the flavor bland, but you'll notice it. The huitsai is currently my favorite item from here so far. Having a subtle but hearty flavor profile like the other dishes, you can tell this is a Mongolian soup. The carrots, the fried potatoes, and the sliced beef are nice, but the hot soup with the meatballs made it for me. No buns came with the soup, but the noodles were a really nice and filling surprise. Huurshuur - imagine the Cantonese dim sum 咸水角 AKA fried mochi dumpling, but stuffed with the filling used for buuz. And flattened. The coleslaw is a no-go for me though. By American standards, the chop was too rough and thus the texture too hard. You know what's an item that I didn't think I'd see at a Mongolian restaurant though? Mongolian beef. We Cantonese made that dish but I guess the community asked for it or maybe Mongols do have a similar dish. I didn't ask. Potatoes and carrots instead of onions and pepper. Good but I like the huitsai more. You might notice that the restaurant has a cell phone number. You can and should order your lunch ahead by texting her. She does her best, but it's a one-woman show, and English isn't her first language. The prices on the website are definitely out of date though. Don't be discouraged if the door is locked though. She's there. This is the TL after all. Just give her a minute and you'll get to check out the display case full of Mongolian things. * Translate to Korean.

Everything was cooked properly, especially the skewers. Nothing raw or questionable. My only critique is that after trying several different skewers, the flavors started blending together and tasted the same. But honestly, I came for the things I grew up loving. Chicken skin, gizzards, chicken cartilage and stinky tofu were my favorites. Some people call this "poor people food." I call it a delicacy. These are foods I grew up eating, so there's something nostalgic about them for me. Give me crispy chicken skin and cartilage over a fancy steak sometimes and I'm perfectly happy. Service was fast and surprisingly attentive. Every time something came to the table, the servers explained what it was, which I appreciated. Everyone was friendly and respectful. You order through a QR code on your phone and pay when you're finished. The restaurant itself is clean and nicely decorated.

What makes this even stranger is that I have dined here with my husband before and this never happened. This time, without him, gratuity was added automatically. I don't know why we were treated differently, and I won't speculate about the reason--but the inconsistency made me extremely uncomfortable. If automatic gratuity for a party of three is Mingalaba's standard policy, it should be clearly disclosed and consistently applied.
