Love this place! The food is delicious & it's a great price for AYCE. Make sure you come on an empty stomach. Highly recommend!
This is my go to place for Mongolian! So good!! I'm always greeted when I enter and then taken to a table. The staff is very friendly and always aware when your drink is getting low & brings another without asking. On the tables it reads you have to ask for rice but they also give bread. All pretty good comes pipping hot. The place itself is a decent size has a few T.V's and a busy street view. When you're all done eating they will bring you the bill. The station has gloves to put on so you don't have to touch the bowls your food goes in & utensils with bare hands to pick up the items you want in your bowl, it does help to stop spreading germs and such. There are plenty of items to make a plate this time I saw shrimp and that was a new item to me. I even ask for my broccoli to go a little longer to make it soft and they do. I always give a tip when I'm done because they work non-stop it does get busy. Overall I love it and I keep coming back!
Atmosphere: Clean, inviting, spacious. Staff: Very friendly and quick. They kept re-filling our water and brought out rice lickity-split. Food: This buffet is awesome. You can be super-healthy, not-so-healthy, or go bodybuilder style. For example, you can do some chicken and all veggies (like I did on my second helping) and feel great about your life choices. I saw a guy with two bowls of meat only and I asked him if he was a bodybuilder. My first plate was noodles and veggies with chicken and it was awesome. Price: didn't break the bank and was well worth the cost. I went to the buffet twice and didn't feel like I was cheated at all, very fair pricing. I will be back.
The Baseline: For Mongolian BBQ restaurant the grill meats must be quality, the buffet item table set up must be functional, and the chefs must cook the food well. Food: I love Mongolian BBQ and the only thing that would make it better is if they were cooking on a shield. Big ok is a big food and big flavor establishment with a great selection of meats and veg that will go great with the pile of noodles you give the chefs to cook. Pour on the garlic and ginger water to make your pile of tasty selection marry each other in flavor. It is all you can eat and worth the price point to eat here. Service: Great service and water refills were made several times. Ambiance: Busy at an All-you-can-eat level. The chef put on a show for cooking your buffet selections and it is a fun experience to watch you meal get cooked on the massive cooking flat-top grill.
The food was alright but wasn't that flavorful, even with the variety of oils/waters available. My big complaint was the cost. I was there at lunchtime on Saturday and was charged for dinner. When I asked, the woman said on weekends they didn't have lunch prices, though it didn't say that on the menu. Then there was a tip jar by the grill that said they don't split tips between the seaters and cooks. With an iced tea, my total was a little over $34 f or just me.
Nice sit down All You Can Eat Mongolian BBQ. Everything is always clean, and the service is prompt. There is a lot to choose from even if you don't eat meat!
This concept is just like at the mall where you get whatever meats and veggies you want and they grill them for you except it's ayce. For the price of ayce I think this is a great deal. You get seated when you first walk in and then you can go to the food bar where they have different types of raw meat and veggies. After you get the foods you want you can add various sauces for your food to be grilled in and then you wait in the line around the wok where chefs take your food and cook it for you. There are only one cut of each meat (i.e., one beef, one chicken, one lamb, etc) and they aren't the best quality but honestly still really good for the price you pay. They have a wide range of veggies and I can't see how anyone would have trouble finding something they like here. The chefs rotate around the grill, cooking the meat and veggies together first and then adding in things like noodles so they're not overdone. They'll also clear a part of the grill to make vegetarian dishes or portions for kids so it doesn't cross with other people's dishes. I made my dish after someone who used a lot of chili flakes so my dish came out pretty spicy but the nice thing is they'll allow you to make a new dish without charging you for the leaving the last one. You can also order rice and Chinese buns at the table to eat along with your stir fry. Inside is pretty spacious but it can definitely get to be a longer wait to get your food if it's busy. Everyone has to get their food cooked on the same wok and there were up to 5 chefs working when I was there. I would recommend getting two bowls each time so you don't have to wait multiple times in the line. I went in the line twice and was stuffed by the end of my meal. This restaurant wouldn't be the best place to go if you're trying to enjoy someone's company over a meal as most of the time you're waiting in line but the price and the amount of food you get is a steal! One thing I wasn't a fan of is the chefs don't get any of the tip you leave on your check. If you want to tip the chefs you have to leave a separate cash tip at the grill and in my opinion the chefs deserve the most tip. The table service is good but they just come around and give you rice or water refills, while the chefs are moving around the hot wok and actually making the magic. I definitely would come back here and would recommend this for any big eater.
Review #956 2026-020 Rates: Dinner, Weekends, Holidays Pricing: $23.95 served with Rice & Chinese Biscuits $22.95 vegetarian & senior $16.95 ages 10 - 12 $13.95 ages 6 - 9 $10.95 ages 3 - 5 Free ages 2 & under Lunch Weekdays Pricing: less $3 from dinner pricing We have this annual girls lunch/dinner to celebrate our birthdays, & just stay in touch. B picked Big Wok Mongolian BBQ as a midpoint between the 3 of us, & Winnie said it was AYCE, which was a good thing because I got our dinner date mixed up & didn't really eat lunch beforehand. BWMBBQ is located in Manhattan Beach, off busy Sepulveda Blvd. & 10th St. I was apprehensive driving through residential streets directed by navigation, thinking that there's a restaurant here until I saw the moniker's bright lights. A moderate sized parking lot is shared with 2 other restaurants out back. There's no front entry off Sepulveda Blvd. so you enter from the parking lot. Process: The diner selects from a buffet of proteins (chicken, pork, beef, lamb, shrimp, tofu; meats are frozen) & fresh veggies (onions, mushrooms, shredded carrots, spinach, bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli, cabbage, bamboo shoots, tomatoes, green onions, baby corn, corn, cilantro, water chestnuts, celery, bean sprouts), & of course, noodles. There's a sauce station to season your bowl(s): House Special, Spicy Sauce, Ginger Water, Dragon Hot Sauce, BBQ Oil, Teriyaki Sauce, Curry, Garlic Water, Lemon Water, Serrano Chili Hot Sauce (with a 3 sauce menu suggestion); along with condiment jars at the end: vinegar, minced garlic, red pepper flakes. There's bowls on the left with disposable gloves (kinda wasteful) to mashed down the ingredients, just get an extra bowl & don't overfill. Our plates were pretty loaded so we didn't ask for rice even though it's included with the rice. My 1st round was chicken, tofu, spinach, onions, bell peppers, broccoli, green onions, bean sprouts, & noodles; sauces: 2 House Special, 2 Spicy Sauce, 1 Garlic Water, 1/2 Ginger Water, 3 Dragon Hot Sauce. I was surprised at how much food I had even after cooking down the chicken & spinach. The grill was clean so I kept my intended flavors. I love their fresh, hot shaobing (燒餅)... flaky, nutty aromatics, & soft. It seems kinda hollow, so I bit along the length edge to create a pocket & stuffed it with chicken & veggies. Damn... it made for a great mini burrito! But I didn't want to fill myself on carbs, & not be able to finish my plate. I eventually clean it & went back for a refill with less noods, more tofu & veggies in 1 bowl. I was so stuffed after grazing about an hour! I needed a walk (I did) to get rid of my food baby. I also had GERD driving back (yikes!) & took a pause to purge for relief. Whew! To think I wished they had dessert (ice cream macarons or pudding) like in their olden days, but then I would have kept to 1 plate. Like most AYCE restaurants, food must be consumed on premises & no boxes will be provided for leftovers. What's different was that we were not charged for my pregnant friend's leftovers, which was nice. Not sure if they have a policy to charge for food waste, though it would have been nice if my friend could box her plate instead of wasting it; it looked like there was a full serving left. Decent price point for AYCE with select options, & how much can you really eat? Price point is a bit high for the kiddos, at mine wouldn't be able to even eat close to that value. Service was friendly but not readily available; need water & shaobing refills. There's a separate tip jar for the cooks, so the receipt tip likely goes to the servers & possibly back kitchen. Big Wok Mongolian BBQ was even mentioned in Eater LA (09/2023) as possibly the last remaining Mongolian BBQ buffets in S. CA. They're not; there's Mongol King (Torrance), Caesar's Mongolian Bar-B-Q (Cerritos), Genghis Khan Mongolian BBQ (Westminster) just to name a few. BTW, did you know Mongolian BBQ (蒙古烤肉) is a Taiwanese novel dining creation inspired by Japanese teppanyaki & Chinese Beijing-style BBQ, & marketed by comedian Wu ZhaoNan? He couldn't call it "Peking BBQ" after his hometown due to political sensitivity & ended up with "Mongolian BBQ," though the restaurant does have their version of its history. Would I come back? Maybe. If I do, I have a plan to minimize the noods & stuffed the shaobings instead. Nom, nom, nom!
Food is great, people is very friendly and fast service. Love this place! Using plastic gloves to choose food is ok , but it's more trash to our planet. Wouldn't be better hand sanitizer hands? Just an opinion here. Love their orchids!!
Every time I come in here I get better and better at making my bowl bomb! Recently I've only had to go from here and I'm hyped that it's still warm by the time I come home. It's hard to take the whole plate down cause I always end up with 1 plus pound of food so I make two meals out of them. Pro tip: add sauce generously for the best flavor.
Big Wok is a solid choice for Mongolian BBQ. I appreciated the quality of the ingredients and the variety in offerings. You make your way down the line and fill your bowl with as many meats, veggies and noodles as you desire, then finish it off with one of their plentiful sauce options. They suggest 1-2 scoops per bowl but I would go with around 6. Meat options are chicken, beef, pork and lamb. If you go during prime time the grill may be a little backed up but the cooks are working as quickly as they can over that hot grill and you shouldn't be waiting too long. Bring some dollar bills to tip them. We enjoyed the sesame bread provided at the table and washed it all down with a crisp beer. Come hungry to take full advantage of the AYCE.
This is an OG spot of mine. I love BBQ in general but something about Mongolian BBQ hits different! My usual order consisted of noodles, chicken, veggies, and topped with sesame seeds. I went around 6pm on a Monday and it wasn't crowded surprisingly. It's always a vibe and the workers are very fast paced and friendly. I love coming here to have dinner.
Big Wok Mongolian BBQ is such a great spot! The food is fresh, flavorful, and you can customize everything just the way you like it. Portions are generous and the pricing is very affordable, especially for the quality and variety you get. Free parking is a huge plus and makes it super convenient to stop by. The staff is friendly and the overall experience is always satisfying. Definitely a go-to place when you're craving Mongolian BBQ!
We went to the beach and decided we wanted to go have dinner near by. As we were driving the smell of Big Wok was absolutely delicious and we had to drive back and stop by. Boy it was a treat for my family and I, it was all you can eat to my surprise. You can choose your proteins, veggies, add your noodles and sauces to complete your dish. You can hand your plate to the cook and watch him cook it for you and smell your epic dish come to live with all these amazing flavors from your sauces. The line went fast, the service was awesome and so was the price. We will definitely come back! read more
Whenever I crave Mongolian BBQ Noodles , I think of Big Wok. Very good selection of veggies and Meats - Noodles are great and lot of options to spice it up with some very good and flavorful sauces. Service is always quick and efficient and the dining area is spacious with lot of tables. I love this for a quick lunch and always tend to over eat here. Haha read more
Good AYCE Mongolian Bbq. The was place was decently clean and had some traffic on a monday afternoon. They have a variety of meats (pork, beef, lamb, chicken) and various vegetables, sauces. For carbs they give you sesame bread, noodles, and/ or rice! This place has endless hibachi for a great value (compared to typical hibachi plate)! The food was also delicious. However, in terms of service though it was not great- the server initially to check on us and filled our water. However, I only had two bowls of food and the server kept pushing the check while my friend and I chatted. They were getting impatient. The place was not completely full and there were lots of empty spots. We were there less than an hour! Good food but do not expect good, kind service 3.6/5 read more

In a small shopping center there is parking in the back of this establishment which is also where you enter. It's an all you can eat Mongolian bbq spot with lots of options for your plates. We loved it. The Staff from the grill to cashier / server were all very welcoming and friendly. Tip the cooks separately from the server / cashier, fyi. We were first time visitors but saw others who had a system down. We ended up getting 2 servings each as we'd gone during lunch it was only $22 a person and wr were stuffed for the rest of the day. We will definitely be back in the future. read more

ive always tried places next to this restaurant and the amazing smell coming from big wok is what lured us in!! we came during lunch on a thursday around 11:15 am and there was a lot of space and seating. when you come in, they get you seated and you grab bowls (you can grab more than one at a time) to fill in with the food. then you wait in line around the chef's area and you can watch them stir fry the food you got. a lot of my coworkers filled one bowl with meat/toppings and the other with noodles, since the raw meat rolls take up a lot of space. my biggest advice is to put a LOT OF SAUCE. i put around 3 spoons of house sauce, and 2 of the spicy sauce but didn't really taste any of it so it came out a bit bland. when i came back for seconds, i doubled what i did plus a little more to make sure i could taste the flavor, and it tasted soooo much better - too bad i was already so full. for lunch it was about $20 per person for all you can eat! they don't let you bring any leftovers home (sadly) so it's definitely worth it if you have a big appetite. my coworkers packed on a ton of meat and you can definitely get your money's worth from this place if you can eat a ton in one sitting. the servers are very sweet and i'm glad that we got to try this place since i was craving mongolian bbq. read more

This place was so yummy! I came here with my mom an hour before they closed since we craving for Mongolian bbq. The place was pretty packed! A lot of families dinning in. They had a lot of options for meat, veggies, and sauces. At the end you can choose noodles or rice. They also had complimentary bread that was good too. I would come back again but earlier since it was rushed and we weren't allowed to go boxes if you dine in. read more

Came in on a weekday for lunch very excited for the $10.95 AYCE, but was surprised the prices have raised to $18.95. And don't get me wrong - that's absolutely acceptable, but they don't give you menus and the price isn't shown anywhere so a bit of a surprise when the check arrived. That aside - great selection of fresh food made to order with great service. Sesame bread and rice are served along with your entree and they have sambal to complement. Restaurant is big and getting seated is easy. read more
Love it here. Food is fresh. Service is great. Please tip the men grilling your food. They do a phenomenal job at cooking and standing in their feet all day without a break. They're amazing!!!! It's always busy but a great time each and every time I come here. Good for when you have a huge appetite!! read more

This place is a large, clean, and modern. This is an all you can eat Mongolian BBQ place. You can also order to go and make a plate to go as well. I used to go to their old location all the time and when I saw that they were open I was in disbelief! They apparently only closed for a few months and then reopened in this new place. The meat, veggies, and noodles are so fresh and delicious! I think it was about 30 dollars a person, and I feel it was well worth the price. I would recommend just making one bowls worth of food at a time since you can go back multiple times. I would also say for the sauces try just putting enough sauce for one bowl so you avoid it being too salty if you use multiple bowls for one plate. The service was good! We got there close to the ending of their lunch service. I cannot recommend this place enough! Make sure you have a healthy appetite when you get there! Also bring some cash to tip the cooks! Definitely come out, even out of your way to come and eat at this gem! read more
Food: The food is your average mongolian BBQ WOK. I love Mongolian food, and I think the process is so cool. The flavors are incredible. However, i was unaware i had to create my own flavor with all the sauces to mix together so my first plate wasn't the best and lacked all flavor. I couldn't get the flavor I was looking for even after I asked for help. They did have a recommended mixed. However, it doesn't say what flavor it would make so tonmy fault I made my own flavor. My second plate was much better as I tripled all the recommended mixes. The spicy sauce is not spicy. They also don't have shrimp or fish. It's chicken, beef, or Lamb only. And it's all you can eat. The only thing that makes it not so great is that you have to know your sauce mixes. Otherwise, the food doesn't taste great and you can't enjoy it. Service: The staff is nice, the cooks ask you if it's to-go or stay and they will separate your food so nothing is overcooked which is great. Everyone is nice. Atmosphere: It's a really cool atmosphere, and everyone seems to enjoy themselves. It's a casual place with plenty of seating. Price: The price is good for all you can eat. Location: It's located in Manhattan Beach off Selpulveda Blvd. Great location with good views. read more

My favorite Mongolia spot in LA. Always clean and I usually only get one plate but that's all I need. Lamb, veggies and noodles baby. Mmmmm mmm read more
Great place for all you can eat Mongolian food. There are tons of options you can choose from and the cooks make your food right in front of you. Service is great. The venue can become a bit loud due to the amount of people dining. Plenty of indoor seating. I definitely recommend! read more
Amazing food, fantastic service, and a touch of Mongolian chaos! Big Wok Mongolian BBQ is the perfect place to channel your inner Genghis Khan and conquer some serious hunger. The food is fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection right in front of you on that massive grill--it's like watching a Mongolian battlefield, but with veggies and noodles instead of horses and swords. The only hiccup? The veggie assembly station could've been a little cleaner. I mean, I wouldn't have declared it fit for a Mongolian emperor, but hey, the heat from the grill probably annihilated any potential invaders. Consider it survival of the fittest--culinary edition. The wait staff? Absolutely wonderful. They were friendly, attentive, and didn't judge the towering mountain of noodles I brought to the grill (Genghis would've been proud). All in all, Big Wok delivers hearty, delicious meals that are perfect for winter or any time you want to warm up with some sizzling stir-fry. Just don't forget your inner warlord and a sense of humor--this is Mongolian BBQ at its finest! read more
