GK Mongolian BBQ Modesto Reviews
I had the fish and chips. Great flavor and huge portions. Place is a little small, but there was no wait.
KICKASS SPOT! You build your own bowls, so the chef is always amazing. Staff’s so friendly, you don’t want to leave. **Add your noodles last, and smash your ingredients down as you go to fill it up as much as possible because cooked food shrinks, and you’ll want more than an appetizer portion. Unless you’re into that.
We recently celebrated a few birthdays here, and every time was great. For a party of 8 we spent about $135 with purchasing drinks as well. So under 5 is free. After 3:30 is all you can eat I’d recommend going at these time. You basically choose from a buffet of meat, and vegetables they cook it for on a high wok it’s worth it!! And with my daughter being sensitive to shrimp, they cleaned the wok every time, and we’ve had no reactions like with other places!! They do delivery with DoorDash, but they stay packed cause the food is amazing!!!
I love going to GK! Every time I go, the vibe is amazing! The guy came and asked if we needed help and explained how to make our bowls, even offering us free drinks for our togo order and providing conversation while we waited. The cook that made our food was really awesome as well, as always! Make sure to go show them some love!
Had dinner here tonight for the first time. Was thoroughly impressed with all the staff. They go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need or want. The manager visits tables to check in and the server was so sweet too and had us all set up before we got to our table, including drinks waiting for us. The cooks work unbelievably hard while being kind and accommodating to every single customer. The food is just as good as the service. You choose everything that gets cooked into the bowl they serve it in including the sauce, which they probably have ten to choose from. It’s not a fancy place which is another thing that’s so great. We will definitely be back.
This place is my go to every weekend! I love the staff all very polite and smile when u walk through the door. They treat you like family 👨👩👧👦. Raul and Dan, I love these guys they always make me feel like I'm a valued customer. You gotta try this place . I do half Teriyaki sauce and half house sauce,and lots of it.
⚜️😋🍚🍜🍲Whoa!!! whoa!!! This place really is a place you do not want to miss. Let me tell you why.👍⚜️ ⚜️Kassandra the Waitress comes to greet you right at the front door with her soft voice she asks. Is it for here or to go?⚜️ ⚜️If it’s for to go then it will be picked up at the front Counter, and if it’s to eat in, she normally says with a nice smile. I will get you set up.⚜️ ⚜️The Cooks there are skilled to the fullest, and is so fun to watch them go around cooking the food on the Round Grill🍜🍲🍚🍜🍲🍚⚜️ ⚜️Yes I do Recommend this Place not only because of the warm welcome, but because the of the delicious food⚜️
Quiet evening, last minute decision that was quote fruitful. It wasn't top busy, so it didn't take long for i to be put on the grill. I appreciate all the fresh veggies and meat. The board between even tells you where everything came from. Of note, the overall maintenance on the grill as far as keeping the surface clean was spot on. The cooks are mesmerizing to watch, the food is great, the service was top notch. Definitely will be visiting again.
First time trying this place. Came with a potsticker and drink for $16 & some change. Mixed meats , beef chicken and pork. The noodles are cooked differently from what I'm used to in the Bay Area, where everything gets thrown on the grill, noodles get removed after a quick separation to cook meats and veggies. Then everything get mixed once meats are cooked. Here everything is cooked at once. Noodles are cooked perfectly but my beef slightly over cooked. But still feasible. Great selection of oils and veggies. Meats are as follows: beef, chicken, pork and turkey. Would have loved to have seen lamb. Still highly recommend the place. I was definitely hungry as you can see. Hope this helps you!
As with many places, the bathrooms could use some attention and we're tagged. There was a great selection of fresh local foods and the staff cleaned their grill frequently. Well worth the visit if you're into stir-fried type foods. If you're expecting traditional Mongolian foods, there was no mare's milk, camel, or other traditional Mongolian fare.
Vegetables were just to undercooked for my liking. And all the rules were confusing by word of mouth instead of a sign or a menu with prices.
My daughter and I both got food poisoning from here. We went last night and it was packed. I love the place I just got sick from it. Maybe they need to make the meat stay cooler.
GK Mongolian is one of those places I really want to love, and when the food is done right, it’s excellent. The problem is the inconsistency. Sometimes the food tastes fresh and flavorful, and other times it feels rushed or off. The staff experience is also hit and miss. Some employees are friendly and attentive, while others act like they don’t want to be there. There also seems to be a constant turnover of workers, which makes me wonder if it’s because of pay, management, or ownership. I find myself always letting this place go for a few weeks, sometimes even months, before I give it another chance. It’s always hit and miss, but when they get it right, I really enjoy it. I keep coming back because I do like the concept and the food when it’s prepared well, but I really wish the management would focus on consistency—both with the meals and with training and retaining good employees. This place has the potential to be great if they can get those issues under control.
It's a great place to grab a bite to eat, while getting to choose your ingredients and watching them cook your food in front of you. Would have given it more stars, but they either need to catch up with keeping the restaurant and the food area a little more clean and tidy, or perhaps need to hire more staff.
