Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We had a really nice experience having lunch at The Mongolian BBQ. The food was very tasty but….. it’s as tasty as you make it! Use all the spices to add to your meal before it’s cooked otherwise it will be plain as the chef...doesn’t add anything. So you are the creator of your own meal. Good luck and burn appetite!More

We booked a party of 36 Scouts from London for the late afternoon session. The management organised a separate area for us and made us feel very welcome. A brilliant experience with superb food and great value.

We have eaten at the Mongolian BBQ elsewhere. There were no prawns at this one, but they did have a fish mix. Thought the Teriyaki sauce was greasy and oily.

Disappointing experience. The concept is fun, the choice of sauces and spices is good but the ingredients proposed is not great. N shrimps, no lamb, no interesting vegetables. We eat 2 bowls each and I don’t think it was worth 20€

We went there since it was close to our hotel for lunch. It was our first time trying Mongolian food or this kind of cooking. We were greeted by a very polite gentleman that I guess was the manager that helped us with the sitting....The service in general was very good and everyone was polite and helpful even though they had to deal with a clueless couple lol. They have tw options one with a single serve called the Bowl and one with an ''all you can eat''. Both are reasonably priced. We chose the first one and in my opinion it was enough for us. We were satisfied with the food and the freshness of it. A place we highly recommend since it's both tasty and cheap!!!!More

My husband and I visited this establishment during our trip to Dublin. It proved a warm welcome of a restaurant - especially in the context of soaring Dublin prices at present. We enjoyed two overstuffed lunch bowls (served with a large side of rice) and...a total of three drinks and the bill came to around 30 euros. A helpful hint would be to have an early dinner/late lunch at this restaurant prior to 4:30pm as the food selection is the same as the evening menu but rated at a lower cost. The standard and range of food was also great. The options enable you to completely personalise your meal. I created a red Thai curry with seafood and my husband created a beef Madras curry which were both beautiful. Finally, the service was good - staff were attentive, fast and helpful. Overall, a must eat in Dublin.More

Really good food, chefs are really nice and happy to suggest recipes and extras for you. Some reviews mention tasteless food but there's a whole section for you to season your bowl as you like. Don't blame the restaurant for your lack of seasoning knowlegede....Also felt nice to be at an all you can eat and not be pressured to have a drink or leave after a while. They put water on the table as you sit down and are always nice throughout your stay.More

What a fabulous little restaurant to stumble across and really reasonably priced for an all you can eat. We sat down and the lovely waitress explained what we had to do. In simple terms. Get a bowl and walk round a counter filling it with...meat and veg (or just veg) and noodles if you wanted them. Then on the wall they had a big spice rack with spices you could choose any. Then over to the sauce counter. They had BBQ, Teriyaki, Chilli and loads more. Once you had what you wanted you gave your bowl to the chef and watched him cook it for you. and you can go back as many times as you like. The idea is to just do small bowls so you can try different flavours. It was a really nice dining experience and were not rushed to finish. We will definitely be back again.More

We passed this place while out a on a nighttime walking tour and it smelled amazing from outside. After the tour we made our way back here for dinner, we were a large party of 9, staff were very accommodating getting us a table, we...only had to wait a few minutes. €20 all you can eat Mongolian BBQ. The food was good, a good selection of vegetables, sauces and toppings. However it’s not like previous Mongolian BBQs I’ve visited., The meat selection was only chicken, marinated chicken, pork or a mixture of fish with squid. Foods cooked fresh while you wait. Everyone enjoyed the food, we were all mostly full after one large bowl so didn’t take advantage of the all you can eat, ended up paying €20 for a bowl of stir fry. On the whole it was fine, it was late, we were hungry, they could accompany our party, food was nice but not enough that I’d go out my way to return.More

First time here and will definitely return. You pick your vegetables, meat and sauces and they cook it very quickly. A steaming bowl of rice is included. They cook gluten free dishes in a separate wok which made my friend very happy! Very reasonably priced.
