The hostess/waiter who greeted me explained the process perfectly. Pile up everything you want into a bowl and pick your base (fried rice for me). The chefs cook everything in your bowl along with the sauces you choose. The wait wasn't long at all for my to-go meal and my bowl was delicious.

Plenty of spices

We really like Genghis Grill. Especially when the birthday bowl perk arrives in the mail. It's worth it to get the app and sign up because it's a BOGO. You get a little stainless bowl and walk down the self-service food line, helping yourself to the raw proteins, veggies, spices and sauces. The goal is to pile enough on to make a meal that Henry the Eighth couldn't finish and have enough leftovers to take home for tomorrow. I've seen some creative construction done in that food line. I did allright by picking vegetables that I like but don't usually have on hand, like water chestnuts. I concentrate on a good mix of the basic food groups. Beef, chicken, pork and seafood. Sprinkle seasonings on them and get a couple of cups of sauces to suit my palate. After handing my bowl to the chef, who deserves a nice tip (for with he might bang the gong), he will cook it up for you and have the server bring it to your table. So, if you don't like your meal, you really have nobody to blame but yourself. We'll, unless the cook overdoes or undercooks it. The server has an easy job, but ours was nice, so he gets his gratuity, too.

We hadn't been to this location in years. My daughter wasn't in double digits...she's almost an adult now. She wanted to go so we went. The location wasn't busy. The location looked clean and the environment was nice. We were greeted and given the instructions on how to get our food. We got our protein, veggies, sauces, etc and gave our food over to the grill people. The good was prepared in about 5 minutes or so. I enjoyed my bowl; my daughter, not so much. I think she mixed too many things as well as her noodles were a little burnt. I'd visit the location again and I think she would too, but make better & have less options in her bowl.

This is a bowl with cabbage. They're only a mile away from my house and this is how it came.

Never again! I could see why they only got three stars. I'm not sure why I would order a bowl that's filled with a bunch of juice and then they put the fried eggrolls in the same container where they're soggy as hell called and spoke to the manager. He wasn't too interested in no apology or anything Never ever ever ever again.

I have always loved the Genghis Grill concept! Was happy to find one still open in the DFW market. Both of the two units near us (Grapevine) closed in the last several months. This location is clean, well maintained with a nearly new appearance! Everything was well stocked and looking fresh! As you likely know, it's a Build-Your-Own Bowl place. Bacon, sausage, beef, chicken, pulled pork, shrimp, salmon, calamari, and more for proteins. Literally every vegetable you might imagine as well as an incredible variety of spices and sauces to create your perfect dish. Our waiter was very good, as was the grill master. We always get the Medium Bowl as it nets us two meals. Best GG we've dined in, absolutely will be back!

The food was not good rice was very soggy and mushy there was a fly that would not leave us alone it was definitely giving very dirty vibes and there was gros stuff on my cup including a fly in my drink

Yummy

Super casual spot. Went on a Friday around 6pm. Plenty of parking, convenient location, staff was nice & helpful. $26 for unlimited bowl and they have a lot of options (proteins, veggies, sauces) to choose from and they serve adult beverages. I'd recommend & I'd go back. You just have to keep telling the cook what type of base (white, brown, or fried rice) and add-ons (egg) every time you go up to make a new bowl.

a menu for cocktails and desserts

Whew! When I tell you this old favorite was everything I needed after a super long day. Came to this location for an impromptu date night. We were sat immediately and drink orders taken. I got the Blue Dragon and it was so refreshing, yet strong, made me feel like I was in the islands. Once in line to make my large bowl, I loved the new variety of proteins available. I was able to try something different than normal, the salmon addition was spot on! I also love that now the broccoli is cut up instead of those huge florets, that made it hard to keep them in the bowl back in the day. Lol love love love what they've done, it will definitely be back in my casual dining rotation again! @MissMo2323

Our bartender/waitress Shontique was very attentive and personable. She made our experience perfect. The bowls are fairly priced and I always just go with the medium. It's enough for me. My girlfriend gets the small. She gets full with that. We sat at the bar. They have two TVs. Only downfall is they have NO beer on tap. If you are a beer lover this is not your place. Aside from that, the food was delicious, and cooked well. They have a lot of protein choices and veggie choices for the bowl. I recommend the new carné asada it's delicious with the udon noodles. Those noodles are awesome. They also do not have a patio at this location so just a heads up. Thank you shontique.

Brought my mom here. Three friend's recommended this place. She wanted a build your own stir fry. Sad to say this did not satisfied me. Got my order done with the wrong base. The bowl to grab protein and ingredients was super tiny for a large portion. I think they should think about making it a bigger plate or something. For $50, because we went large & I had a coronarita... I should bill them for my time I guess, being Asian, I expected way too much. I should had knew from the photos and that we were the only Asians in this place. Next time, I'm sticking with Panda

I hate giving these types of reviews. They just earned it. I can confirm the negative reviews of this location. It was dirty. The service was horrible leaving people to just stand in the doorway while servers were writing down notes on paper then proceeding to enter the information from the paper into the wall POS. There was a $2.50 small bowl special for today only. I waited over 15 minutes and couldn't just go sit at the bar as I was a solo tonight. I had to wait in the line to give my order first, yet three other parties in front of me were seated and provided menus. The "host" came back and said that I could now go sit at the bar and he would come back and take my order. I sat at the bar and used the menu that was sitting in the corner. And looked it over. Host came back over and I showed him I wanted to get the special. I showed him the app. He tried explaining email to me. Frankly, I've been using email decades before he was born. I explained to him that their system was not sending out the confirmation emails and showed my Inbox and Junk mail. Other emails were being received. Nothing from GG. Then, Mr. Customer Service told me that without the coupon I would have to pay the full price, not the 50% off special. I asked if he was serious. Even after showing him the app, the confirmation request, and the message stating an email had been sent (just like I did over 20 minutes earlier). Showed email again, refreshed, and waited more for delays. Refreshed again. Mr. Customer Service said I would have to pay the full price. I left. The food hasn't been as good since before the change and pricier offerings. Not worth further waiting. I'm going to save GG from ever having to read a review like this on Yelp from me. I don't care if someone from GG offers me free Bottomless Bowls for the next 5 years, they will not see me again at this or any other location. This was the second strike. They are not getting a third. Obviously, the problem with poor management and failures in training the staff. So, here's GG's famous flying finger of fate award. Wear it with deserving self-admiration.

I'm a big fan of Chinese mustard, but beware: it will make you cry, both from enjoyment and from the pain of your sinuses lighting on fire. Worth it anyway. If you like egg rolls, they're a must. They're enormous and packed with the freshest ingredients. I always regret loading up on appetizers because I'm full before the real food shows up, and I do it every single time. I've had a lot of the noodle dishes and each one is better than the last. If you're a tea drinker, they have a huge selection. I'm sad to report that I ate too fast and only snapped pictures of the desserts. They were as exceptional as everything else. Service is A+. I just wish I lived a little closer. Or maybe not, because I'd gain 20 pounds. It's a must try. Trust me, you'll be back.

When I spoke to George, the owner, he said "so sorry" and swept it off. I honestly don't expect to pay these prices for such horrendous service and low quality food. I know many will disagree with me but for your money go elsewhere.

And wow, the taste is the exact same. The decor is the exact same. The people are the exact same. It was truly a feeling of nostalgia that's hard to describe. My favorite dish has always been, and still is, the bamboo shoots with pork. It is so fragrant, umami, and simply delicious. The west lake soup is also a classic done so well - pro tip to add white pepper to give it a little kick. The steamed pork belly was okay - sauce is flavorful (a touch salty) along with the preserved greens but the pork wasn't as tender as I had remembered it. The fish filets are fried to perfection, full of salt/pepper flavor, and pairs well with the jalapeños. If you don't like fish, you can get the same flavor with the pork version of this dish, which I also really like. The service can be a little slow because it's just 1 chef and 1 waitress who own the restaurant - same people that have run the show since I first came here probably almost 30 years ago! Incredible to see them still working so hard and serving delicious food. They'll never know how much their restaurant and food means to me!

Great flavor and the pork didn't have that weird pork taste some Asian places have. The crispy smoked duck pancake was awesome and worth the steeper price. I wasn't a fan of the sauce alone, but in the pancake was excellent. The eggroll was a decent eggroll and the duck sauce that came with it was the best sauce I've had with an eggroll. The lady working was sweet and was working her butt off with the 5 tables she had. Felt great to support a local business. The restaurant itself is out dated but the tables and utensils were clean. The atmosphere added to the experience and the background music was just perfection.
