I lived in the area for more than ten years - we often came here to eat - it NEVER disappointed. So when my son got stationed in the area I took him to eat here. The food had a burnt taste because the staff didn't take the time to scrape off the old food and clean the surface after... More

Went here twice, with the last time being in March of 2011. Good quality food - kind of hard to justify now, though, since my wife and I no longer care for all you can eat restaurants. More

Looking for adventurous food in Norfolk, we stopped here when in Norfolk on a business trip. The decor is tired, but the food is what you're here for - and it's a good value. You assemble the ingredients, and they cook it, so you're in charge of the flavor and spice. It was perfectly acceptable, but unless I'm on a... More

Have been here many times and a good meal every time. First time I thought it was bland but that was because I didn't take their advice and add all the sauces. Very importantly, they seem to keep their meats cooled when others don't. For lunch, you only get one visit to the buffet line. For dinner you go back... More

The price is 8 dollars a person, you get unlimited flat bread and rice. the price has not really risen since I started coming here, unbelievable value for what you get. As such I would recommend this for anyone who has not been here before. as a matter of fact I will be heading here tonight. My mouth waters just... More

If you live in Norfolk and you've never had Mongolian Barbecue, then you can have a fun, inexpensive introduction to the experience by going to Genghis Khan. It's in a stand-alone building just south of the intersection of Military Rd. and Virginia Beach Blvd, near where I-68 runs into I-268. Other reviewers have described the process well, so I won't...

Don't let the rather ordinary looking building and dated decor deter you. This place is authentic, clean and the food is excellent. Friendly and inviting the staff seat you nearly immediately and take your drinks order. Then go over to the ingredients bar and fill your bowl with as much of the many fine ingredients as you wish. Learning the... More

I love this place. Good price and *fantastic* tasting food. The place does look "lived in" but it's clean all around and I've never had a bad experience. I crave their food days after eating there! The wait staff are friendly and accomodating. Drinks are refilled promptly and we are usually seated the moment we walk in (if it's not... More
