Wok on Fire

“ Food, service were both great! I don't know why someone said flavorless, you put your own sauces on the food for them to cook. Smdh ”

“ For some reason, this location is better then the other one. I came here with my husband and we were pleased with the choices and that they had signs up on how they cook with their sauce unless you ask for it a different way. Service is super speedy and efficient and you're never left waiting. The ambience of the location isn't too bad. It's bare bones but gives enough space for everyone to move around. All in all, love going to this place! ”

“ I have to admit, I was kind of worried about Wok on Fire seeing only 3.5 star reviews. But I'm working in the area for a few weeks and the one thing that Seattle/Bellevue does not have is an AYCE Mongolian restaurant. But I gave it a try and I came at least once a week for 4 weeks! What I like about Mongolian BBQ is that YOU choose your items and sauces. So if you don't like it, it's all on you! And service is friendly! As you walk in, just make your way to the buffet line and pick up your bowl. The first set of offerings are egg noodles, and veggies. They offer a lot more vegetables options than some places I've been to. I usually get spinach, broccoli, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts and mushrooms. Then you can choose your meats: beef, pork, chicken and imitation crab. And lastly, the sauces - I really just get a ladle of everything. Then drop off your bowl to have them cook it on that ginormous cast iron griddle. Before you know it, your food is done! They add a scoop of rice if you want and there are other condiments available. A side note, the people that own this restaurant are from Chuuk! It's in the Micronesian Island chain - look it up! ”

“ I really like this place. Been going here for about the last 8 years, and I think they just celebrated their 9th anniversary a couple of days ago. It's a typical Mongolian Style Buffet. You can order one bowl for under $9 or all-you-can-eat for just over $9. So it's a fair value. The vegetables look very fresh and there's a pretty wide range of choices. I tend to love spinach, onions, cilantro, baby corn when they have it, and cabbage. The meat choices are good also. You can get chicken, beef, or pork for lunch. I haven't checked to see if they have a tofu option but probably. It's not something on my personal menu. I think where they fall short a bit is on the sauces. They have several watered-down down sauces that you can add before you get to the grill. But my problem with the sauces is that the garlic in particular is like water with a couple of garlic flakes in it. I'm looking for some real garlic so when I dip my ladle in to it I want to get garlic chunks not flakes. But mostly you get water. The grill is a typical gril although sometimes I don't hear the sizzle so I'm not quite sure if it's hot enough. They will clean the grill for anyone who has particular allergies, specially seafood or gluten. Oh and speaking of gluten, they only have about three seasoning sauces that are gluten free. However they do allow individuals to bring their own spices because they understand allergies. I think that's pretty cool. I always ask them to cook mine until it's dry. Just don't like my meat and vegetables and a bunch of soupy mess. So I definitely go with the requested dry plate. It means it's over cooked a bit but that works for me. When they hand you your plate of food fresh off the grill they'll ask you if you want rice. I usually decline the rice cuz I don't like white rice. Asian people think I'm strange because I eat a lot of their food and I don't eat rice with it or otherwise. Anyway, back to my point also at the end of the line you can add sesame seeds, peanuts, jalapeno peppers, teriyaki sauce, and a few other things. I never leave the end of the line without adding peanuts, jalapenos, and sesame seeds. It just gives it the best crunch, heat, and general flavor. That's about the long and the short of it. This is certainly a typical Mongolian Grill with a decent amount of choices to put in your bowl, okay seasonings, and a fair price. I actually think that when I go there I'm eating healthy because it's all vegetables and very thinly sliced meats. But, I way over do it on the sauces especially the chili oil and the sesame oil. And I know that's not good for me especially in the amounts that I use. Nevertheless I definitely consume far more more vegetables than I eat generally so I do feel good about that. I do recommend this place if you've never been there it's definitely worth checking it out. ”
