Family Mongolian BBQ is an absolute beauty in the Simi Valley, being the only Mongolian spot there. They have various styles: AYCE and To-Go, to accomodate to any and all customers. Both options are super affordable as well. The restaurant is a big place that can accomodate many parties with its homey vibe. My family and I come at least once a month all the way from San Fernando just because the food is that good. They have plenty of meats, vegetables and sauces so that anyone can find comfort here. There are truly infinite possibilites. Of course, someone's manning the grill with two big wooden sticks so the food will always be served fresh and hot! You're also able to get it with a scoop of rice if that's your thing. They also serve complimentary egg drop soup! Romeo and Nana are always roaming, ensuring that every guest has what they need and are cleaning as they go as well. They are super thoughtful and hardworking! read more

I have been here a few times before with my wife and friends. We decided to visit again as we heard they were not closing to a lease agreement. Be prepared it is not the same as the past. Everyone must order AYCE at the table if 1 person wants it. This is a new change. No free refills unless you get AYCE, so water it is. Price went up but I get it because prices for everything has gone up. So the friends decided to do the one bowl dinner. Wife and I got the orange chicken, fried rice, chow mein, and spring rolls. We are still waiting g and we placed our order over 40 minutes ago. The place is not busy, only one other table when we ordered so it's not like it is super busy. After this I do not think we will ever come back. I truly hope that the new changes will not deter any future business. As I was typing this one item ordered came out, the fried rice, no rolls, chicken or noodles. Sad thing is our friends rolls came out when they ordered it but ours didn't....... Ugh. Best of luck. Update. We asked for the status of the orange chicken, 10 minutes later guy came back out for our friends Togo fried rice and asked again where's the orange chicken and he stated we are making it now! Ugh. We already finished the rice and noodles. Now we have to wait longer!?!? FML! Stay away from individual items and just stick with the bowls because you won't have to wait for the staff or the cook. read more

This is the BEST FOOD in Simi! I have already drained my children's college funds eating their All You Can Eat Dinner special on a weekly basis. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME ANYWHERE ELSE. How would I describe the environment at Family Mongolia BBQ? To answer this question, ask yourself this... how would you describe the birth of your first child? There are not words in the English language that can accurately describe how I feel... My brother in-law and I attend this eatery AT LEAST once a week after a heavy Leg Day. This food nourishes our quads immensely. It is possible that ~30% of my body's lean muscle mass is compromised of beef from Family Mongolian BBQ. How would I describe the chefs? For Mozart, his instrument was the pen. For Michelangelo it was the chisel, for the Great Zosimo and Romeo... IT IS THE WOODEN COOKING STICKS. Every mountain of meat I've brought to them has been cooked superbly... it makes me emotional just to think about it. How would I describe the service? Every time I walk into this fine establishment I am consistently greeted by the beautiful and kind Nana. Once while walking to my table with my plate, I tripped and just when I thought all was lost... Nana, in Maguire-fashion, swooped in and caught me. She saved both my life and my dignity. Everyone in the room clapped. I looked up at her with tears in my eyes and graciously thanked her. Ever since that day... she has held a special place in my heart... and my will. In conclusion... to Family Mongolian BBQ.. to the beautiful staff... to the artisan chefs that craft the most incredible stir fry in the world... I would like to extend my most sincere praise and appreciation. Thank you for everything... read more

Family Mongolian BBQ - Mongolian Near Me - Simi Valley, California

I came here in the midafternoon. It was completely empty. It was a large and comfortable dining room. The server, was helpful. I chose, instead of getting the all you can eat option, I ordered ala cart. I got the chicken with mixed veggies, fried rice, hot and sour soup and an iced tea. The soup came out first. It was really, really good hot and sour. The flavors were balanced and you could tell that someone put care into the preparation. Note that they only serve a 2 person portion, so I had to take some home. The the fried rice and the chicken/veggies came. Also really tasty. The chicken was cooked perfectly. I appreciate small, family run places. The entire meal just hit the spot. I'll definitely be back. read more

Went around 3pm on Friday. There was only one other person but we came at good time as at about 4 more people showed up. The place didn't smell like a restaurant. Didn't smell like food. It had an interesting smell that want good or cleaning products. The food was pretty good. We got to pick all the ingredients from the meat, veggies, and sauces. The service wasn't very good... the server seemed annoyed and unhappy to be there. Talked as little as possible. read more

Family Mongolian BBQ - Noodles with chicken, beef, and tofu - Mongolian Near Me - Simi Valley, California

We love this restaurant so much! We've been coming here for many years. Authentic Mongolian BBQ for a great price. The ingredients are very high quality and the service is wonderful and friendly. I loaded up on lamb and beef, both of which were tasty and good quality. They even provide plastic gloves so you can press your meat! I always get turned off at the mall places where there is the nasty sign to not press your meat. My kids love it too - so many noodles! Please support this local restaurant! read more

Good food, nice ambiance, friendly staff. First time I have seen seafood at a Mongolian BBQ. Would come back.

Love this place. This is my fifth visit. No more free egg rolls. Just soup. You can get the pocket bread for $1+. Food still taste great. Service is always friendly and quick. The only thing that I don't like is the garlic. Basically, just water. Maybe have to come early so it's new container full with chopped garlic. I always come around 2. So it's only water. Anyway, still my favorite place and yes, I'll visit again. read more

Previously, we have really enjoyed this restaurant - the food quality is always fresh and delicious. Unfortunately, this last time has really put a damper on our feelings on this place. While the food was still very good they had one poor teenager being the server and bus boy for the whole busy dining room. He was flustered and overwhelmed, didn't write down our orders, forgot several things (including to put in a dish) and was unfortunately not very attentive. It took an hour for our all ordered food to come out (it came in waves and the first dish took nearly 45mins to come out), and we had to ask for it multiple times. It's very disappointing to see them raise their prices, but otherwise diminish. I know some of my party will not be returning. I hate to say that since I do enjoy their food, or maybe will just come for the Mongolian BBQ. Please note that if 1 person in your party wants to do All-You-Can-Eat everyone in the group must, which we found to be problematic since only 1 person in our group wanted to do that. read more

This is a great place to take the family. My kids love the buffet style because they can choose whatever they like. Great value, the food is consistently good, and the owners are super nice. I wish they had a few more TVs and would play sports on them. I also wish they had beer on draft. But nonetheless, it's worth repeat visits. read more

My husband and I have never been to a Mongolian restaurant before and thought we would try it today. First of all I have to say everyone who worked here is very friendly and pleasant. It's large inside with lots of seating. We went for lunch and there was pretty many customers there. You fill a bowl and they cook it for you on this big round flat top. Very entertaining! They have a robot deliver your drinks to the table which was interesting. The lunch special we got was $12.99 and it filled us up. Came with rice and soup. I would go back. read more

It has 2 options, order off the à la carte menu or have ALL YOU CAN EAT. You choose from the proteins, veggies, noodles, sauces on a buffet table, & put your combination in a bowl that they cook for you while you wait for it. Really fresh & delicious. I make 2 bowls-one seafood with tofu & veggies & the other with meats (chicken, pork, beef, lamb) & veggies. White rice & egg drop soup are included. $20 for AYCE is very reasonable. And they are very nice people. read more

Delicious. Service is great. The food is good. you pick your meat, veggies and sauces...they cook it up for you.

I was totally surprised by this place, went in with little expectations as place was empty and towards the back of a shopping center. But I was pleasantly surprised, it's a typical mall food Mognolian bbq but still good. Good choices and good diced to flavor your plate. read more

About once a month my wife and I have a craving for Mongolian bbq and Family Mongolian always hits the spot! They have great options at the veggie bar and the meat is great quality I think the big difference is, these guy know how to cook Mongolian bbq! The place at the TO mall always overcooks the meat and turns it into beef jerky. Everyone here is at family Mongolian is very nice and today I met the owner Romeo, he cooked my meal perfectly and it cured my Mongolian bbq craving! See you next month when the urge hits again! read more

My family and some of our friends have been here numerous times and we're always satisfied with the quality of the food. There's something about jamming as much meat and vegetables as possible into one (or two) bowls and guessing which combination of sauces and oils will be the most satisfying. Frankly, you can follow their suggestions, but I usually wing it; the only problem being I can't for the life of me recall what I did the last time we were there. Regardless, I've never had a bad meal there. In addition to the Mongolian BBQ, there's a reasonably extensive menu of Chinese dishes, many of which I've tried. They're not AYCE like the BBQ line is, but the portions are plentiful and most everything is delicious. The wait staff is friendly and helpful and the robotic server is an interesting (but seemingly superfluous) touch. read more

Family Mongolian BBQ is not charcoal, open flame cooking as BBQ usually implies. It's quick grill cooking where the raw ingredients are stir fried.  Buffet line to get frozen shrimp, squid, lamb, pork, beef, chicken. Plethora of veggies, sauces, chow mein noodles, even canned  pineapple chunks to put in a bowl to take up to the counter where the grill man cooks your food in under 3 minutes. It's here when you can ask for steamed rice.  Complimentary egg flower soup & fried veggie egg roll. Huge space with plenty of tables. About $20 for all you can eat which is a good deal now a days after one year of high inflation. Not sure how Mongolian this food is, but it's a-ok. 3+ stars. read more

My family loved this place! We've been going to a Mongolian BBQ in Camarillo for years, but the cleanliness has been going downhill. Each time we go the place gets dirtier and dirtier. We had to stop going. We're so glad to have found Family Mongolian! The quality of ingredients was great, the marinades are very tasty, and we really liked the added sauces on the counter for after your meal had been cooked. We will definitely be back! read more

Tried this place for the first time and the food is really good, 10/10 recommended for some noodles

Place is a hidden gem. Selection and variety is great with an AYCE option. Highly recommend and would come back. Good friendly staff and service. read more

The Food is delicious and healthy. The variety of vegetables are many and you pick your veggies. The plate includes noodles and rice. There are sauces you can pick from like garlic oil, Barbecue sauce, and others. The service is fast. There is plenty of tables to sit and enjoy your food. !If you plan to take home your leftovers bring your own Tupperware. There is plenty of parking. The restaurant is 2321 Tapo St. This is a nice restaurant. read more

Love this place, never had a bad experience. All you can eat is always good, my drink order is at the table by the time I sit down, and friendly staff. I don't understand the people saying nothing but good things and only giving it 3 stars... read more

A neighbor picked up my former Chinese favorite for me, and texted a few times to let me know that the order was not quite ready. The egg foo yung arrived drenched in a sweet and sour sauce (emphasis on the sour with a burn that seemed like chili oil) instead of the brown sauce I received on previous orders. Very disappointed. If you're ordering from the Chinese menu, suggest you double-check before carrying your order home. On the up-side, portion sizes are good and usually last 2 meals for me. The rice was good. Since I'm on a fixed income, I won't be ordering there again. read more

My daughter and I came here today for lunch. She suggested it when we were trying to decide where to eat. I used to go to a Mongolian BBQ place in Claremont when I was a kid and thought I would give this a try. Overall, the food was pretty good. You get a bowl, choose your meat, add some veggies and other toppings, and choose your sauce. They also have noodles that you can add to your bowl as well. Then they cook it up and add a scoop of rice on the side. The young man that was the waiter was nice. While we picked our food out, he asked for our drink order. After our food was cooked, he had picked a booth for us and our drinks were there waiting for us. They also brought us one mini egg roll each and a cup of egg drop soup. The egg roll was good, very crispy. The soup was okay. It wasn't very hot and a little too gelatinous for my taste, but it was good enough. The restaurant seemed a little rundown and the tables/booths looked like they needed another wipe down. After we sat down, we never saw anyone again until we were ready to leave and pay at the front. Overall, the food tasted great and the topping choices were good. I will definitely be back to lunch here again. It is also good to support our local Simi Valley businesses. read more

I have been here a few times now so I feel like I have a better idea of what to expect. I enjoyed my time at this place once I figured out what my sauce preference was in the all you can eat buffet section. The service was ok, the lady was a little slow on getting our drinks and bread but she was the only one out there so it wasn't too bad. The ambiance is weird, it feels very tiki bar which doesn't match the theme of Mongolian. read more

The place was clean, food was fresh, employees were very friendly, and the price was reasonable. Been meaning to try this place for years and so glad that I finally did. Wish I had tried it sooner. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend it read more
