Gobi Mongolian Grill - Pleasanton

This was an incredibly passionate culinary experience. The aromas, textures, and flavors of the steamed and pan-fried noodles were truly remarkable. Plus, it's an ALL YOU CAN EAT menu, and after 7 PM, everything is half price. What a fantastic deal!

The concept of frozen meat paired with fresh vegetables and noodles is fantastic. You can select exactly what you want and cook it yourself. However, the atmosphere inside leaves much to be desired—it could be much more welcoming. On the bright side, the food was delicious. Definitely give it a try!

Unfortunately, due to COVID restrictions, dining inside is not an option at the moment, but that's just a temporary situation. When I learned they were only open for takeout, I decided it was worth the 1.5-hour drive to grab a bite. The safety protocols are well implemented, and the environment is always clean. The food is consistently fresh, and the staff is always friendly and accommodating. Today, I stopped by for a meal after my doctor’s appointment, and I was thrilled to indulge in garlic and spicy chili oil. If you’re not quite sure how to make your Mongolian dishes flavorful, they have a helpful sign by the sauces that guides you on how much to use for different tastes. Of course, you’re also free to mix and create your own combinations! The protein options include chicken, beef, lamb, pork, imitation crab, turkey sausage, cocktail shrimp, and tofu, along with a wide selection of vegetables to choose from. If you're looking for a delicious meal, I highly recommend trying Gobi; you won’t be disappointed. I’ve also visited Gobi's location in San Jose, CA on Brokaw Rd., and I can’t say enough good things about that place either!
