Mongolian Grill in downtown Lasalle is an excellant establishment. Customer service was a…read morerefreshing experience. The lady at the front desk is very kind and patient when dinning here; an ignorant customer ordering takeout was unreasonably demeaning towards her for a slight language barrier, yet she kept composed. The menu has surplus options with massive portions, especially for the price. The chef clearly takes care with their cooking and plating. The apetizers could alone be a meal! Overall a lovely quaint restaurant.

This place... oh my goodness, this place. The GEM of the Illinois Valley. I could sing praises to…read moreMongolian Grill from the rooftops, and I would if I had access to a roof. Let me state that I have been eating here since they opened, around 2013-2014 perhaps. Everything has stayed consistent, including the pricing, and that's been impressive. When you walk in, you have the option of ordering from the menu or doing the buffet and let me tell you- get the buffet. If you can cook at all, you will enjoy yourself here. You'll get your soft drink, then it's off you go to build your masterpiece. Five separate buffets with two side stations, there's a lot to process. There's two small stations, one for fried rice and one for ice cream. There's a cold bar in the back which features some salad items and desserts, and one buffet table full of ready to eat apps and foods with some soups offered. I did giggle that the one says "eggg dorp soup". It's what you'd expect at any Chinese buffet. Then we get to the good stuff- the hibachi stuff. You have three bars for hibachi: your noodles and veggies, your meats, and your sauce ingredients. You get a bowl and load it up with your choice of noodles and veggies, there are so many options. Tofu, egg, zucchini, baby corns, broccoli, water chestnuts, sprouts... I can't get enough color! Then you move over to the meat buffet, where you select your raw cuts and place the pieces in your bowl. I typically do the beef and shrimp, always good quality. You'll bring your bowl to the hibachi grill and set it on the counter so they can start cooking it. You'll go make your sauce at this point, which is where it could get overwhelming if you don't know flavors well. There are probably 20 sauces to mix and about 25 seasonings and the likes to add flavor, so there's a lot of room for creation with your sauce! You'll bring it up to the hibachi again when you're done, and they'll plate your order and bring it to you if needed. For $10.99 a person, what a stellar deal. So much fresh produce and variety from a family owned business, it's a staple in the Illinois Valley. Although I've moved to another state at this point, this is the one restaurant I haven't seen done this well and one I miss whole heartedly. I visited the IV from Florida recently and ensured I ate there several times because I just can't get enough of the great service and incredible food. If you haven't eaten here yet, you're missing out. Stop by today and build yourself the meal you deserve.

I am from the south and was expecting a cornmeal based batter but was pleasantly surprised when it came to the table. The batter is similar to tempura but also beer batter. While the establishment did forget our appetizer but it was quickly rectified. The food was delicious and the portions are HUGE. A few pro tips: the catfish is served as a steak so it has bone. Also, they only take cash or check. But there are 2 ATM's there.

We'd recommend to call ahead of time, so they can have your order ready when you get there. Many rolls have fried shrimp or salmon (tempura) and some crunch, and some are spicy with jalapeño. My husband and I enjoyed the Alcatraz roll which had some flavor but was not very spicy. They provided wasabi & ginger, but we did not receive soy sauce, so if you like that in your sushi, be prepared to use your own. My husband liked the hibachi fried rice and meats as well, though it had too much salt in it for me. We'll be back to try more of their fun sounding sushi rolls!

Definitely don't judge an establishment based on what it looks like from the outside…read more This looked like someone's house but you walk in and it's a cozy restaurant with an amazing patio. We were seated in their second dining room which was away from the bar and main dining room. We were kinda bummed we got sat there but it ended up being ok. There was a large party seated behind us so it was quite noisy. We ordered martinis which were good. For an appetizer we got the fried pickles and those were delicious. Full of dill pickle flavor and the breading was very light. I ordered the salmon and sautéed spinach which was one of the specials. My dinner companion hit the rib eye and blackened shrimp. Both entrees came with a salad and the steak with a potato. Our appetizer and salads came out right away. The salad was very disappointing. Only lettuce pretty much, no tomatoes or anything else. I think it might have had cucumber. Very lack luster. My salmon and spinach was great!! I enjoyed it and the salmon portion was generous. I had enough to take home. The ribeye was cooked medium rare as requested and it was very good. Shrimp was great and had a nice spice to it. The French fries were cold though. Service was ok. I would definitely try them out again but be warned that they are a bit overpriced. Parking is terrible and you need a reservation. The patio was nice and I loved the fire places. There was live music that night. Overall good place for maybe a special occasion.

We needed a walk after hours in the car. We were seated w/menus in a booth. They serve breakfast all day, apps, burgers, entree salads, sandwiches, and meal entrees with a kids menu and a seniors menu (65+) on the back cover. I went with the taco salad. It's a big portion with sour cream and salsa on the side and comes with soup. You can add quac if you like. My dining companion got the chicken parm which comes with a side salad or soup and, if you like, a bread basket. It also is a big portion and is served with garlic bread. As someone who makes their own sauce this one was not up to their standards. Still, they ate a good bit of their meal. The salad is pre-cut lettuce and I believe the soup is made off site. Salad dressing is served on the side. Plenty of meat in the taco salad. Salsa has a bit of a kick and there are three kinds of hot sauce on the table if you want more. Something I ate affected one of my many food sensitivities and by the time I got back to the hotel my stomach hurt. It happens. They have a private parking lot. Beer and wine and a few liquors are available besides soft drinks. Restrooms are older and in pretty good condition although they could use a deep, detailed cleaning. This was a convenient stop for us but not one we would seek out in future. Prices are very good. Menu is varied.
