    The food at Mongolian BBQ was decent, but the customer service? Not so much. I asked for a to-go box for some leftovers and was surprised to see a $2 charge on my bill just for the box. Really? It's not even about the money--it's just kind of ridiculous to charge for something that most places give out for free.

    Really delicious and fresh food with great service. Use any of the sauce combinations on the sign and your food will turn out great. This the best Mongolian bbq place we have ever visited.

    One of my favorite place to eat when I was stationed at Beale AFB. We always make a point to come and eat here whenever we are in the area. Food is delicious and service is great as always.

    I haven't had Mongolian BBQ since I was overseas in the Navy. You get your bowl, put everything in it you want: meats, veggies, sauces. It's neat to watch the guys cook your food on the ginormous skillet. Wish we had one in my area!!! One of the ladies who worked there is actually from the Bay Area and we were talking about that there used to be one in the area. You also get soup, rice, and wonton pieces. Everything was very very good! Also, the employees are all very friendly and seem to love their job!

    Ask the Community - The Mongolian BBQ

    How much is the all you can eat dinner bowl?

    It's about $11 after tax. Very reasonable and includes a drink, rice, soup, bread, wontons, and the BBQ.

    Seems like it's not all you can eat all week, is this the case or not?

    It's an all you can eat dinner, but one trip lunch.

    Is this all you can eat?

    Yes or you can pay for 1 bowl/to-go box

    Is this the same owners of the place that burnt down in yuba? Sorry been gone awhile.

    Yep! Same family, new location.

I grew up eating Mongolian bbq at malls and was so excited to see a stand alone restaurant! We came on a Sunday lunch and started moving along the food counter right away, starting with meat then noodle then veggies, then toppings, then sauce. We had lots of fun with our different strategies to fill our bowls as much as possible. The staff was pretty attentive and refilled any stations that were running low. I love how customized the noodle bowls are and was able to adjust my sauces to my taste. I appreciate that they have a few recipes posted for reference. Our noodle bowls came out so delicious and we had fun creating them! The restaurant itself was clean and it's nice that the staff helps to seat your party, especially once the place gets a bit packed. We notified constant flow of customers while we were there.

One of the best parts is being able to customize your bowl exactly how you want it, with tons of great ingredients and sauces to choose from.

After two decades of coming here, it's still one of my favorite places to eat. Highly recommend!

    All You Can Eat-ish... Bar-B-Que…read more.. I was excited to find out there was a Mongolian BBQ in Auburn. For weeks, my coworker and I have been trying to get our schedules lined up so we can go try it out together. Finally, tonight was that night. We parked in a large parking lot around the corner and noticed it was not busy. One of the employees was sitting outside (outdoor seating is available) on his phone, but he was so welcoming and opened the door for us. He took us to a booth and gave us the run down. Sit. Order your drinks, and go get food. Go back for more, because it's ayce... Tony was really nice and had a great smile! He told us how it works - The server would be over to get out drink order. Then, she brought us some crispy wonton chips with some sweet & sour, a cup of soup each, and a small bowl of rice to share... although there are signs that say "do not share," lol. I'm not sure why you can't share if everyone is paying the same price and eating almost the same exact thing... especially, if it's ayce for everyone... It was exciting to see what they had to offer. After finishing the soup, we walked around the wall to fill your bowl with meats (choice of pork, chicken, beef, or lamb), noodles, vegetables, and at the very end, the flavorful liquid. These liquids make your dish. You can put on a simple teriyaki, but that will make it sweet. There is a house sauce, sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, wine, vinegar, and kung pao sauce. If you aren't sure what you like, there is a "Sum's Sauce Recommendation" recipe up for your convenience. **Be sure to tip the grill cooks!! The best way I have noticed to do this is to grab 2 bowls. One of for your food and the other, you will want to fill to the at least half way with your liquids. The saucier the better with me! I spoke to the cashier in the front... who told me it's $21 to dine in, and $17 to take it to go since the person taking theirs to go wouldn't be ayce.... (never mentioning the extra charge.) When we sat down, it felt like something in it was missing... maybe a little salt? Usually, I nail my own sauce recipes. Good amount of soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger... garlic, chili oil... a little kung pao... Since we weren't too happy with the flavor of our first bowl, and finished just over half... and this was an ayce... we decided to go back and tweak our creation. This one had better flavor (I added A LOT of soy sauce, ginger, and sesame oil), but I seriously could still not taste the sesame oil and this trip, and I used a lot (is there such thing as sesame water?). Then, I wondered if they were using low sodium soy sauce (i asked, and it was regular). I'm wondering if all these sauces are watered down since the soy sauce and ginger sauce were lacking major flavor. The sesame oil couldn't even be detected... so either it is old or a not so good brand. I figured I would just take the rest home and fix up the flavor... and since I overheard a server offer to box someone's meal up...I thought that was neat that we were able to take out food home...turns out... we had to pay to take home the rest of our bowls(extra$9), or pay extra to not take it home... a "waste" charge(extra$8). When we first walked in and we asked how this Mongolian BBQ worked, they left out the part about paying for waste/ or taking home the rest of your food for a charge. If we had not gone back for a 2nd bowl, we would not have had to pay the extra charge because we would've just not finished it and left. I felt a little ripped off. Of course, after we were ready to pay, they pointed to the sign on the wall that we did not see... in fairness, we did ask how they operated and we were told to go get more... but we were not told about the extra charge. I felt cheated. Over all, it was not bad, it just was not good. It was edible, but definitely not worth the extra charge.. i didn't even want to bring it home, but with the extra charge, I figured I would fix it up at home to make it taste better. This brought our bill to close to $60... $30 split each. Not worth it. I feel like a great honest business that is confident in what they serve would have been up front about the charges before springing them on you in the end. They even brought us the bill without the extra charge when they noticed we were close to finishing, but then took the check back to add on the extra charge. The signs should have been pointed out. Service was great. Food was not anything to be excited about. Day after, I warmed up my food with a few drops of a sesame oil that I have.. it added 10 times more flavor than the 2 ladles of soy sauce and 3 ladles of sesame oil that I added at this restaurant.

    Date of Visit: 07/27/2026…read more After visiting the Folsom area we happened upon this gem! I had not visited a Mongolian restaurant in a long time and took a chance having dinner with my family here and boy was it the right choice! Upon walking in, the decor is a bit older, but is is clean and neatly presented. The staff was very friendly and seated us right away. There was a good amount of people in the restaurant so the line to get your food was a bit long, but it moved swiftly and fast. The food bar was well organized, stuffed with various meats (chicken, pork, lamb, beef) and vegetables of all sorts. When handing your bowl to the check to cook, they put on a little show while you wait for your food which makes the wait not seem as long and at the end it is cooked to perfection. Our waitress kept our glasses full with ice cold beverages. Soft drinks are free for refills, however if you get lemonade, it is not. There is a soft service ice-cream bar for dessert after you've eaten. Makes for a nice touch although we decided to get dessert elsewhere. The tab for all 5 of us was about $128. I would definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for fresh food, with great customer service!

He was excited I was a little hesitant because this is a very low key smaller Mongolian barbecue. We had a fabulous lunch the white staff make sure everything is kept tidy because it's such a small quarters that if you drop a little bit of food, it shows up quickly, but they are on it. They have most of the regular items and then extra items like two types of noodles, which I always appreciate it. Husband likes the fat ones so I like the thin ones. What really surprised me was that I have to get to the normal selection of proteins like pork, beef, chicken, and lamb and through the veggies selection area where they also have tofu and pineapple, and pass, they make your own sauce, they have CALAMARI and small SHRIMP on ice right before the cooking station! When you sit at the table, you get great service if you order sodas they're constantly refilled. The dinner service also comes with soup a bowl of steam right rice, some crunchy wonton strips and sweet-and-sour. I was also pleasantly surprised to find out that not only do they have Sriracha, but they also have traditional chili oil that you can order with your meal for flavoring. They still have their soft serve ice cream for afterwards with sprinkles and chocolate strawberry Hershey's syrup. Lunch is a few dollars cheaper than dinner. We went at 4 o'clock, so it was dinner our but dinner you can go and get as many refills as you want. The only caveat is if you do get a refill, you cannot take home leftovers. Which seems fair. Super low-key not fancy but a very, very decent Mongolian barbecue and I will be back!

Watching the cooks hard at work and mastery of Mongolian bbq was like a well-oiled machine. Watching the cooks and seeing staff continuously refill the food, toppings, and sauce containers for customers, while also putting out more bowls and trays, was like watching a flawless production! As for our food, the price of lunch is bang for buck because of how much you can fill your Mongolian BBQ bowl and the soup, rice, and addicting wonton chips with sweet and sour dipping sauce that come with your lunch meal. I gave 4 stars because the garlic and potato soup was super salty. My friends and I agreed this soup would have been perfect if it didn't taste like salt was poured into it. In addition, watching the cross contamination of some diners touching the raw meat in their bowls then touching the next tongs, like for the veggies, was a big health risk concern for me. With this, I keep in mind that I don't even know if this can be prevented due to the way Mongolian BBQ works with customers serving themselves, like a buffet. I understand it would be hard to control and prevent the cross contamination from touching the meat, especially as customers try to make room in their big bowl. In the end, the number of people dining, then seeing more people entering, shows how popular Hula's is!

Here's my pro tip -- don't overdo it on the noodles. Go equal parts protein and green veggies, and throw tons of sauce on there! And if you get there before 5 p.m., the lines are way more manageable. Get some!

We arrived around 12:30 on a Friday before the lunch rush, but it filled up quickly while we were there. There was a great selection of meats, including beef, chicken, pork, turkey, and tofu, along with plenty of fresh vegetables, sauces, oils, and cooking wine to customize your bowl. I especially liked that they had bok choy, and there were plenty of ways to customize everything. I tend to add a little extra sauce when building my bowl so everything stays flavorful while it's cooking. The service really stood out. The host was also serving, cashiering, and bussing tables, but still took the time to walk my mom through the process since it was her first Mongolian BBQ. She asked if there were any low-sodium sauce options, and while he explained most of the sauces are soy-based, he suggested using garlic, ginger, cooking wine, and oils instead. I appreciated that he took the time to help instead of just pointing to the sauce bar. My husband likes spicy food, and they even offered to have the cook add extra chili oil that's kept behind the counter. I also appreciated that they cleaned the grill before cooking the next customer's bowl and that leftovers can be taken home, since not every Mongolian BBQ restaurant allows that. Lunch also came with a bowl of rice and a pot sticker, and the portions were more than enough for all three of us. I'm glad we gave this place a try and will definitely be back.

Felt safe to sit and eat at 11PM, especially because multiple families with kids came through to enjoy, many did the to-go option too. We'll be back for late night eats again.
