So happy to find a good Mongolian restaurant near me! Originally, we came here for the Korean food,…read morebut had to try Mongolian food! We got their goulash and bento box! Both amazing! The goulash was full of flavor and the beef was tender! It was my husband's first time having Mongolian food and he loved it! I love how the bento box had a little of everything! So if it's your first time trying Mongolian food, a great entree to get! The service was great! Water was filled and questions were answered! The restaurant was clean! I love their Christmas decorations and their music selection! Definitely will be back to try other dishes and their milk tea!

It also has a great seasoning taste to the food. I love seeking local shops. The owner was very kind to let us which dishes were popular. I read a couple comments saying there was a language barrier between the customer and owner but I don't think there is. My husband I understood what the owner said and explained. I really encourage you to try this place if you love to explore like we do.

This was my first time at the Happy Lamb location in Naperville. I've been to other locations in…read moreChinatown and Bridgeport, but each location has its own appeal. This one's building looks like a beautiful lodge. While there is an online Yelp waitlist (that goes up to 6 people), we had a party of 8 so I called the restaurant and they were happy to put my name down for a reservation. We came to celebrate my dad's birthday. We brought a cake to share, and when we arrived, our server was gracious enough to store it in the fridge until we were ready. We had 6 adults and 2 kids. Kids under a certain height (I forget the details exactly) are free. So we didn't have to pay for the little ones, and not like toddlers appreciate hot pot anyway. It was more, "how do we make sure they don't touch the pot?!" which went totally fine. It's to position the high chairs the furthest away from the knobs/hot surfaces. On our end of the table, we got the half-half broth of classic marrow and the gold cabbage marrow. The golden marrow was SO GOOD. I would get this again and again, because it's hot/sour; the flavor of pickled cabbage and the spice of Szechuan peppercorns. Our server said the spice builds over time, and it did. It was so flavorful that I barely used my dipping sauce. If you like hot/spicy and sour, choose this broth, it is DELICIOUS. The sauce station and the prepared food buffet was located in the middle-back of the dining area. It's a little packed and cozy in there, especially during the dinner rush, you may need to wait a little longer or keep an eye on the area to determine when to get out of your seat. This same area has self-service personal ice cream cups, soda, additional toppings/veggies/proteins, buffet (fried rice, fried chicken, egg rolls, fried buns) AND the sauce station. What I did love is there was a gentleman who was making balloon animals/hats/characters for sale near the front of the restaurant. He says he does this occasionally when he doesn't have other gigs like parties or weddings, etc, so my kiddo and my niece each got a cat and a bunny, respectively. This made their day! And it was nice for them not to be strapped into a high chair the whole time, and have something to entertain them. Overall, 4 shining stars! It would have been great if they had private and semi-private rooms like the Bridgeport location, but I think this wasn't possible due to their building. It looked like they took over a from a Mangia Bubala Roadhouse (Italian and Jewish fare) which took over from a Connie's Pizza. This place has gone through some changes, but it looks like Happy Lamb will be there for the long-run.

First of all, this restaurant is a good time. I saw the owner and he has tons of energy, will greet…read moreyou upon arrival, and is always smiling. However, I feel like they've completely branded it the wrong way. This is clearly a tiki bar in the middle of McHenry, Illinois. I would come here solely based on their drinks and appetizers. Classic dishes, such as Pork Chop Suey or Shrimp in Lobster Sauce were not listed on the menu. I think the menu was designed to cater to the McHenry County palate and not necessarily Chicagoland masses. The classic fried boneless chicken pieces tossed in sauce and placed over rice were available. To be specific, General Tszo's chicken and sesame chicken seem to be popular. There are also chicken and steak dishes which I thought were sorta appetizing. I ended up getting the chef's pot stickers, an eggroll, and the Bird of Paradise meal. It's true, the eggroll was pretty delicious. So were the potstickers. My meal seemed to be very carb forward, and the beef was generally tasteless. I took my meal to go after having maybe two bites out of it. Today I took about half of it and reheated it in a large pan with scrambled eggs. I also added the hot mustard and stirred it into the dish so it could spread out. Paired with soy sauce, it really made the dish have so much more flavor. I'm used to eating at restaurants in Chicago that are really challenging my pallet. This place is very safe for people who are generally not adventurous eaters but do want to get an introduction into Chinese food. Again, I can't stress enough that if you're home from college for the summer break, or you are a 30 something working individual looking for somewhere to let off some steam in the middle of McHenry (when it seems like there is nowhere to go) -- come here. It has the best vibes. The Staff and the owner are super friendly and very accommodating. I got everything necessary to package up my food to take home. Although most places operate this way, it was nice to be able to just give my card at the table and have it run through while the waiter was standing right in front of me. Come here to party. This is the perfect venue and the tiki drinks are fire!
