Great food. I’ve been to similar places but I love that this place has recipes on how to blend the sauces to get the flavor you want. The food was great and the prices reasonable. The staff is very friendly.
This is a great place to take kids or picky eaters.

Absolutely amazing value for the price. If you leave hungry you only have yourself to blame.

This was a great new place. There were so many choices and you get a lot of food for your money. It was DELICIOUS, the restaurant was very clean, and the staff were so kind and friendly! We chose to eat outside and it was such a great atmosphere and area. Cant wait to visit again.

The food is very delicious, all fresh vegetables, you can eat beef, sheep, chicken, pork and prawns for free, the environment is hygienic and clean, the service attitude is good, the price is very cheap, there is free rice, free dough, free soup and free ice cream, which costs more than ten yuan It's really good to eat, drink, feel good, cheap and delicious. I give it a good review.

Asked about vegan options at the door, and the staff member happily told me that the cook will clean the grill before me. She even made sure to let the cook know about it, so I didn't have to ask the cook to do it (they will also clean it before you if you let them know you hate spicy food, etc, so it's no big ask for them). Easy to pick exactly the ingredients you want. Tofu and veggies, many sauces, etc. Noodles and soup didn't have a sign saying whether or not they're vegan, but I'm sure they'd be helpful and let you know if you ask.

This is a self served place where you can choose the toppings for your noodles. They have a good variety of ingredients and everything tasted delicious. Your meal includes steamed rice and ice cream.

I always go to gobi and the owners love me and always give me to go wontons and rice and the one time I go with my friends and we are eating happily. My Friend wanted to taste a bite of my meal because I was used to the store so mine was delicious and when we checked out this stupid haired boy insisted we “shared” our meal so he charged ME 10 dollars more, he didn’t offer wontons or a to go plate or anything. I told him it was just one bite but he said that was policy, if the owner had checked me out he never would’ve done that now my friends hate the place and I am not comfortable going back. I am disappointed in the service especially when I’ve spent so much money there already. I understand I was not there at the right time but I am just very frustrated I had to pay an extra 10$ for sharing a “bite” with my friend after I said plenty good things about it.

Parking: It easy to park

I had a very good meal at this restaurant. You start by filling two bowls with all of the items you want in your stir fry. They have wheat noodles, fried tofu puffs, raw tofu and many, many veggies. There is a sauce station with "recipes" for different sauce combos. I went with the Kung Pao style sauce. After you have all that together you give it to the cook and it is cooked on the spot within a few minutes. Before giving it to him I asked that the grill be cleaned and they seemed to have no problem doing that. There is a station with white rice as well as non-vegan ice cream and soup which I just skipped. You pay one flat price for the stir fry. I really enjoyed my meal and will definitely be coming back.
