This place is HUGE so I've never once had to wait for seating. What I love about this local, family run Mongolian spot is that it's all you can eat, so you don't have to stuff your 1 bowl like at the mall Mongolian spots. You can get 2 bowls if you want, one for noodles and veggies and the other for the meats. Best of all, when you are done, you can get more! The noodles are amazing, but what's equally as good is their side dish bar, which has pocket bread, egg drop soup, rice, spring rolls, and the BEST meatballs in gravy I've had in a while. The meat balls are so soft and flavorful. Lastly, the BEST fountain soda I've ever had is here. I usually drink 3-4 full cups before I leave. I come so often the main guy up front knows me, and always says "see you next week" when we leave.

Growing…read moreup there was a solid AYCE Mongolian BBQ spot we used to go to, but they closed several years ago and we've never found anything even close to comparable...until now. The offerings are quality and the staff are efficient and warm. Definitely a solid find in the area. RC Mongolian BBQ Buffet is located in a strip mall off of Foothill Boulevard in Rancho Cucamonga. They have plenty of free parking shared among the businesses in the shopping center with several spots close to the front of the restaurant. The establishment is a good size inside. Plenty of tables, spaced out comfortably. They have a small area of hot food/appetizers to complement your mongolian bbq creation. The offerings included soup, rice, egg rolls, meatballs, sesame roll, and a fried donut. The mongolian bbq options are diverse. We came for dinner and they had several proteins to pick from. I was excited they had shrimp which, I gather, is a dinner option. There were also lots of veggie, sauce, and garnishing to truly make a noodle dish that you love. The price was a little higher than anticipated, especially for our baby who barely ate a palm-sized amount of food. They still charged us the lowest child's fee. Other than that, we did have a nice meal and would return again in the future.

The food was fresh and everything looked well maintained. One thing that really stood out to me--and I'm not sure if I was meant to see it--was that when food had been sitting out too long, they actually threw it away and replaced it with fresh food instead of recycling or reusing it. I really appreciated seeing that because it gave me confidence in the freshness and quality of the food. My personal favorite was the salad bar. Everything looked and tasted fresh, with plenty of options to choose from.

There are two menus you can choose from with plenty of options on each. There were plenty of fan favorites on the Menu A ($29.99) for AYCE, so we opted for that. Everything was marinated, mouthwatering savoriness. Well, except the corn. That's was a carby cheesy dream. Meats were portioned well for each plate and weren't gristly or too fatty. Veggie sides were replenished when asked and tasted crispy-fresh. We all made happy grians of protest over our very filled bellies. Our server and/or runners came around a reasonable amount of times to keep us piled high and drinks refilled. Our grills - ever so important to a pleasant experience - were changed out before any burnt campfire smell invaded our space. Venting was good. Used plates were cleared away whenever they walked by. Overall, a fun dining experience with vibrant flavors for our party of 4.

The best thing I would say about this place is the people. I have been there a few times, and they don't really remember me or anything, but everyone is very helpful and nice. This pizza is really good, especially if you get more than just pepperoni, but it a bit over-priced in my opinion. The lunch buffet is great. They take requests on pizzas, which I have never heard of before. It can get really busy, as it is a very family friendly restaurant, but again, the service stays top notch, so it's fine if you don't mind the noise. The mojo potatoes (with nacho toppings like ground beef, salsa, guacamole, cheese, etc) are to die for! read more

The restaurant owner was warm and friendly and the atmosphere was fantastic. The restaurant was well maintained and clean. The selection and amount of pizzas put out for the lunch buffet was overwhelming. The selection and abundance of food we have never experienced at any other Shakey's before. We have decided that this will be our Shakey's from now on. Thank you for making our visit memorable. read more
