** SORRY FOR BEING RUDE, BUT UNHAPPY WITH UNEXPECTED BEHAVIOR*** First time here at friends recommendation. Food was good but we were told to leave and eat outside as my mother just took few bites from my food as she was not hungry and was new to canadian taste. Not happy at all with what the manager/lead at site told. They provided the container and advised us to eat outside. It is not a buffet nor we are allowed to refill or something. What is the point to eat inside or outside the resturant. The manager literally came and refused and told to eat out as they will not allow my mother to take few bites. I paid the amount, it's on me if I need to share with 1 or 100 people. I paid for the food and portion can't go beyond what it can hold. UNHAPPY WITH THE SERVICE AND ATTITUDE OF WORKERS. Felt this attitude of workers ruined my brother's Wedding Anniversary as well as my mom's last meal of Canada before she leaves. No apologize or compensation of anything. Without questions I paid full amount of our order and packed my stuff and left the site. Have to eat at home with such kind of attitude at this place.

Nice noodle story fry place where you choose your own topping and ingredients "salad-bar style" . Add your own sauces and ingredients truly make this very customized to your personal taste and preferences. The staff is also cognizant of allergies and does everything they can to accommodate the customers. Faster than a typical restaurant so customers have a great custom meal in a shorter amount of time.

This is a great location, it's definitely different than the Ajax Mongolian but both have their undeniable charm. The thing you need to know about this location is that you are allowed to stack your bowl as high as you can carry, this is important to know when you're considering whether you want the one bowl option or endless bowls, as if you think you will fill up after one stacked bowl, then no reason to spend another $10 on the endless option. The offeringa here are extensive and if you like to eat a variety, then definitely shell out the extra 10 and have different bowls each time.

My buddy brought me here for lunch before flying back to Alberta. Lisa took good care. for us, explained everything well and was very friendly and accomodating! The food tasted really good. You pick up your ingredients from the buffet, veggies, meats, sauces and more and you take everything in the middle open kitchen and they will cooked it right in front of you. That is amazing! Just look at my photos!

This spot definitely gave chain restaurant vibes. It was clean, and we went early, like at 11:45 or so. It was my first time there, and there's specific balancing skills I didn't know I'd need to tap into. I loaded up on the meats and sauses and tried to make space for my veggies, lol! The cooks were attentive and flexible with our changing requests, and we were so thankful for that. It's a lot of food, folks, so go on an empty stomach!

Not only was the meal a unique and delicious experience, the staff were very helpful and there was a lot of choice for vegetables, proteins and sauces. You can fill the bowl as much as you can. You can mix different sauces and they have suggestions for how to do this. As a vegetarian, I chose tofu, edamame and chickpeas for protein but there were several meats as well.

Great Experience. Went for my Birthday Lunch. First time visiting the restaurant. It was my new experience for trying, picking my food and sauce and grilling it infront of us. The service was really great and price was reasonable too. Since it was my first time i couldnt explore a lot. But their choices was pretty good.

I am a stir fry guy. There is no conceivable way that I could give Mongo’s Grill a rating under 5 stars. The server could spit on me and call me names and I would still rate the maximum amount of stars. All the ingredients you could ever want for a stir fry is at your COVID free fingertips. If I end up being underwhelmed with my stir fry, that’s on me. Maybe I should have a better strategy when building my creation, you know? Gussy it up! The staff are very good at what they do. Also very friendly while they’re doing it. I enjoy the process of building my meal, then watching as the cooks maneuver around the big grill frying up multiple stir fry at the same time, tossing eggs around and having a good time. They will make your stir fry into a wrap or provide you with other additional options like egg or rice. Never disappointed or hungry when I leave.

The food is good but the service is pathetic. We were 4 people including my mother came first time and she just visited the place first time to see this restaurant and was not willing to eat. She is just accompanying us. The manager and staff was so rude they asked us to leave the place because it was their pathetic policy and they will charge us for 4 bowls. They gave us packing boxes and sent us outside.

Love Mongos, my mom and I always stop there when we re in town. I love all the different fish options they offer and the variety of toppings is amazing, you get the chance to really customize your dish just the way you like it. I m also a huge fan of their fried rice, it s just so savoury and a perfect pair to my stir fry dish Vegetarian options: Lots of veggies and non meat options to chose from, can make your fish however you like Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs, all on flat ground

The dining experience at Mangos Grill was exceptional. The unique concept of serving an entire meal on a single small plate was innovative and delightful. Each dish was perfectly balanced in flavor and presentation. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every detail was taken care of. The cleanliness of the restaurant was impeccable, contributing to a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend Mangos Grill for anyone looking for a fresh and memorable dining experience. Its a true gem in the city!

Great place to go fill up when you re with your family or on a date. We brought our boys there while in Thunder Bay for a hockey tournament and Dino was so friendly and welcoming. Really made our visit enjoyable! With 2 boys it s more than enough food to take home for leftovers! My boys also love the free refills of iced tea!

Stopped here for lunch with some work friends, it was great. They were able to accommodate our party of 10 when we walked in. Staff were very friendly. I have an allergy to fish, they were checking at every step to ensure that my food had no contact with seafood. It s a set price to fill your bowl so you can pile it up as high as you d like from the buffet of ingredients. So many veggies and proteins to choose from! You also choose your own oils and sauces, I asked the staff for recommendations since the selection was overwhelming. Each dish comes with 2 free sides (rice, eggs, wraps) I skipped that and had mine on its own, it was delicious. Great price, I will definitely be back! Parking: Lots of free parking out front in the plaza

First of all I have to say Im surprised at how good this experience was! My friend recommended the restaurant awhile ago and I happened to stop by today. First thing I noticed is how popular it mustve been around the neighborhood. Its only 3 minutes after the opening hours and theres already two tables, after finishing the food after an hour the number went up to 7. The waitress and the cook are super friendly, and answered all my questions with extreme politeness and a big smile. Food is exceptional too. All ingredients are freshly cooked and prepared right in front of me and they taste delicious. The amount of customizations you can have is a bit overwhelming for me but I liked every bite in the end. For an Asian international student like me, the food wasnt too spicy. Four spoons of Szechuan sauce, three little spoons of spice and a bit of chilli sauce at the top gave me a spicy level between oh I just ate spicy and I need some water. So yeah really not that spicy. In short, 10/10 would come again. Vegetarian options: Tons of vegan options including sauce choice. Kid-friendliness: No shortage of mix of green veggies and proteins to let your kid eat healthy

The food was great, tons of choices. Lunch price is till 4pm, we paid $18.99 each. My dad is diabetic so when he asked about the best sauce options, Dino and Adam were so helpful. They got out the nutritional info sheet and went over the sauces with him to pick the best combination for him. Vegetarian options: They have tofu as a protein option Dietary restrictions: Staff were very helpful!

Simply put - amazing. The ingredients are so fresh and the veggies are cooked perfectly; tender crisp. Highly recommend the cheddar wrap. Huge portions. Well worth the price. Memo to me-one scoop of hot sauce is enough Update: Takeout here is well worth it. You choose your ingredients and Mongo s puts it together for you. Very generous portions. The large bowl is enough for three meals for me.

The food was great, but I cant justify $22 for one tiny bowl of stir fry (I cant have rice or noodles). The bowls they give you fit almost nothing, and then when it cooks down its even less. If you want all you can eat, youre looking at $30 a person. Everytime Ive gone back, the prices have gone up and its just not feasible anymore.

Excellent service, I went in not knowing how it all worked and my server brought me on a guided tour around the various tables of ingredients and explained the process start to finish, he also asked about any food allergies and pointed out where to find information about ingredients and told me what to avoid in my allergy situation. The options are great with lots of proteins and fresh veg as well as different types of noodles and lots of different sauces and spices. It was cool to watch the cooks fry everything up for you on the big grill and the price is not too bad considering the amount of food that you can fit into one of those bowls. I will definitely be back!

Oh how the pandemic has deteriorated one of my favourite restaurants in the city. Prices of course, like everywhere have gone up. $23 for one bowl, add $9 if you want a second - and of course you cant take leftovers home if you get the Mega Mongo. Server failed to mention that. A lot of food was wasted this night. Theyve gotten rid of their Birthday bonuses (free bowl) - the waiter stating that no restaurants did this anymore (which I know is false as Ive been to three restaurants in the last month and a half that both did something for the birthday party - La Casa Nostra, the Keg and Montanas). Now you dont even get an icecream. The food was fine, no issues there. I think the fact that bugged me the most was the removal of the salad bar. Why? You literally prep EVERYTHING for a salad bar except for the actual salad and salad dressings (and maybe croutons). How expensive was that that you found it necessary to remove part of the menu? The building hasnt been updated since it originally opened and the wear and tear is really starting to show. $35/person average for a party of five, where 2 people didnt get the Mega and 2 people only had water - ridiculous. This is why people stay home.

The art of stacking your meal, and then watching it being cooked. I make sure I wash my hands before going up so I can press down on it lol first the veggies then the meat usually chicken then pasta. Sauces I like is quite a bit of garlic and satay sauce I add I scoop of sesame oil they cook it with an egg I add nuts and sesame seeds to it. The best and the staff are great.

This is not the Mongols from 2 years ago. I dont know if there was a change of ownership or just management, but this place is a mess now. Slow service, dirty, and the buffet was a disaster. Food and sauces all over the place and contaminating eachother, if there was anything in the tray at all. There used to be a manager that took great pride in keeping the buffet clean and orderly, I miss his efforts. The current staff doesnt care.

Dont like that I wasnt allowed to take my left over stir fry home. Just because I had the salad bar too. I paid for both so if I have left overs should be able to take it home. Its not like I was on my 3rd meal for all you can eat, thats understandable but when you only have your one stir fry you should be able to take it home.... I paid for it so I should be able to. The rules for taking home leftovers are absolutely terrible!!! But just my opinion

After reading the reviews I thought I would give it a try. I went around 5 pm on Tuesday and it was not to busy so I thought the service would be good. NOT! I waited at the front as two servers walked passed me without a word. Eventually I got seated. Service is a 1 star This is my first time here and will be my last.

If youre in the area and are fed up with fast food and burgers, heres a healthy alternative. The Mongolian is similar to our Chinese restaurant, only here you pay per plate. A little creativity is required here because you have to build or stack a tower. Then put the pasta on top and put the right sauce on it (3-4 ladles more here, because the pasta is very absorbent). Hand it over at the grill table and wait, takes about 5 minutes. I got full, but Im also a good eater. Full 5 stars because fresh, healthy, filling and relatively inexpensive!!

Went in with two friends (one of which is celebrating thier birthday) they no longer do thier birthday free bowl, no big deal. Got the dinner bowl for 19.99 and then a single soup and salad trip for 5.99 . After was told that I couldnt take home ANY left overs since I went to the salad stand unless I paid an extra 6 dollars. They charged me an extra 6 dollars for left overs, food that I paid for that would be thrown out. Will not be back.

I was excited for my food but my vegetarian bowl has pieces of meat and other products I didnt request and I asked for all my sauces on the side and instead one was in the bowl and they others were the same. The rice wasnt very good either. Poor quality for such expensive food that is cheap to make. Great idea, poor follow through. Big portion at least.

I waited so long to have a meal at mongos grill, so I went for a dine in with my friend and they said they had no servers until 4pm, so they refused to do dine in and offered a takeout while they had already seated two customers in front of us.

I have always been ordering kids meals from here because adult meal is too much for me to eat-by-myself,you guys always gave me kids meal on a white bowl filled to the top. But this time i only got half of the bowl. I was at wrk doing night shift hungry expecting to get a good meal. Really disappointed

Before covid it was good, after covid it just went downhill, started getting extremely cheap with meats and not set up in a good way for the way the world is right now

The process of choosing the ingredients by ourselves, then watching them to be cooked on a huge stove, on its own, was a unique fun experience. They helped us to select the proper sauce for the ingredients we already chose. The stir fries we got were scrumptious.

I m a bigger stir-fry guy than Mark, but I agree, this place slaps. Walked up to the veggie bar to start building my fry and was paralyzed by all of the options. When you think it can t get any better you make it to the sauce bar. Spoonful after spoonful of hot sloppy sauce. Then the dudes at the circle grill toss in on the piping hot top and shout out straight UPPP followed by beating the pile with weird metal bars. 10/10 would go again.

Love the whole experience. It took me about 3 visits to figure out what flavors I liked, at first I just followed the recommended advice on the recipe page you are given and was happy with that, everyone is helpful and very pleasant.

With some fore thought and the understanding of food engineering you can and will stack your bowl wide and high for a massive bowl that people will look at and say how did you do that or the odd finger point. Stand tall and enjoy it in a wrap or just plated. Fun place where playing with food is part of the game!

Mongos was actually pretty disappointing if I must say. Our server was not very nice, barley came around to do a table check and never once asked if we wanted a refill. She was also kind of rude. The veggies are extremely fresh but the food in all was alright definitely not worth $53 for 2 people at lunch time and we still arent full!!!!

Mongo s is definitely a family favorite when we visit Thunder Bay. Excellent food. Huge portions. Friendly staff. So many options you never have to have the same meal twice! The owner, Dino, recognizes my family and makes sure we always feel welcome and appreciated. This is a small business well worth supporting!

I tried to order on Skip the Dishes as their website said to use that. Then Skip closed an hour before the restaurant, but they took my takeout order when I called..? Confusing. I also wish there was some suggested premade bowls, as the sheer number of options was overwhelming, and when it came to selecting spice as well as a sauce they did not really go well together. It also was per dry for having supposedly ten scoops of sauce, but the ingredients were exceptional, fresh and well cooked. Great portion size for the price, and nice to have a healthier option that s quick.
