And then they have lovely ice cream and pancakes for dessert. Well, you can imagine how I rolled out the door of this place - never eaten so much in my life! Just goes to show this is really tasty food and an all round good experience. Watch your plates pile high, your food cook and laugh with your friends as you enjoy a competition of who can eat the most plates of food. Just be careful the chefs don't give your masterpiece to someone else - it's hard to keep up with who's who on a busy night!

At Gengy's you grab your dish and heard around the obstacle course popping whatever you want into your bowl. There's meats, salads, sauces, oils, spices galore. Then you take this over to the awesome 'cooking pit' where someone slaps all your selections onto a hot plate and cooks it for you. This is an opportunity to see how good of a chef you would be. Personally I found it took me a few times to get the hang of it. My first few plates were such a mish mash of flavours it was hard to know what was going on. After you have stuffed yourself to the brim with mains there is desert. Pancakes and ice cream and chocolatey sauces. And again... all you can eat!! Wear your elastic pants and go with an empty stomach!

Being able to pick and choose your vegetables, meats and oils are superb, especially since you get to try different combinations each time. I usually go for mixed meats, as i find its the easiest way to have a bit of everything and it tastes really good. I like that they've got a few recipes/options on what oils to have with your meal, makes things a little easier for indecisive eaters. They cook your food in quite the timely manner here, so the wait isn't usually long and they cook several plates at a time. They have a good selection of salads and other dinner options like fried rice, chips, springs rolls and such. Great to nibble on while you're waiting for that long line to quieten down. The bar at Genghis Khan is also great and you can order carafes if thats your preference- not many restaurants offer this now so its another great option for bigger groups and families. The dessert is ice cream and pancakes, and though limited, tends to hit the spot after a big main course! Genghis Khan is good value for money and I'd suggest booking ahead so you don't miss out!

I went here years ago (back when I still ate meat) and I wouldn't go here now because there…read morewouldn't be much for me to eat. This is a meat lovers dream, with a 'help yourself service' starting at a big extending service area where you select your foods and then they cook it all up for you in front of you. It is an experience, and I know people that still want to go here becouse of that interactive environment. There isn't much service though, because you are on your own for food selection mostly, but the staff are still friendly. I would not go here again though because the main items on the menu are meat or meat related.

I personally believe it is a great set up, particularly for fussy eaters and meat lovers. Did I mention it is ALL YOU CAN EAT?! There is also a selection of salads, buffet style, and a few small options for dessert to top off the meal. It is well worth checking out if you have not gone already.

I probably would never have come here had it not been for a soccer team dinner where someone else…read morechose the venue. What a pleasant surprise. Buffet eating is not really my thing but the kids LOVE IT. So much so that I found myself making a booking for 22 people on a Friday night for my son's 10th birthday. Unfortunately we were seated outside in the covered courtyard which is so loud you can't hear yourself think. Add 14 kids and get yourself several large alcoholic beverages. The pricing here is amazing value (those other buffet restaurants could learn a thing or two), with adults costing $25 and kids $5 plus $1 for every year i.e. a 10 year old costs $15. The food on offer here is actually really good and as a semi-vegetarian, I never imagined I would be saying that about a Mongolian BBQ restaurant. There's always two soups, usually meat-free and really tasty. Garlic bread to go with. Mmmmm. The salad bar is fresh and includes everything I would want - boiled eggs, beetroot, pickles, olives, red onions etc and a good choice of dressings. There's also pasta and potato salads plus a few other as well. Then there's the hot selection: fried noodles, a really oily but delicious fettucine, various veggies, tortilla chips, mini spring rolls, pastries..... see what I mean? A LOT of choice here. Oh yeah, and that Mongolian BBQ thing. True, you have to select your ingredients and wait in the line but this is all part of the fun (Jesus it's a FIIIIIRE! Somebody IS barbecuing). There's everything you could want for your barbecued meal and it's all really fresh looking and again, serious value - shrimps, chicken, beef, pretty much every kind of animal you might want to get cooked and put on your plate. You can also wait in line for fresh pancakes for dessert and my only gripe is the manky water the ice cream scoops sit in. There's probably no way to avoid this as I know they do replace it regularly and being able to scoop their own ice cream and add their own assortment of toppings is another reason to bring your children here. It's noisy, busy and there will absolutely be kids underfoot that are perhaps a little over-excited, but just look at their little faces - they are having the best time! You can't be grumpy about that. Just go, it's reeeeeeally good for what it is.

I had never been to Genghis Khan before my cousins invited me. We went sometime after the turn of…read morethe New Year, when Auckland was dead and you never knew what restaurants were going to be open. The place was kind of quiet, which is apparently not usually the case. Genghis Khan in a nutshell, is all you can eat buffet. There's a selection of raw meats and vegetables and asian style sauces which you pile into a bowl and take to a chef at the back of the room. They fry up your meal on a giant hotplate, and dump it back onto a plate for you to consume. In addition to this 'cook infront of you' experience, there's also a selection of other odd buffet items - fries, noodles, macaroni and cheese, cold boiled eggs and salads, broccoli soup and bread. It's a real mix of cuisines. The dessert consists of made to order cook infront of you pancakes with a bunch of toppings you can chuck on. It's relatively well priced (considering you can eat as much as you want), at $25 a head. But don't expect anything too flash. It's a bit dirty feeling in there, very family friendly and very 'cheap eats' feeling.

From meat, vegetables, sauces, salads, breads and soups, to pancakes and ice cream, the buffet…read morespread at Gengis Khan has got to be one of the most extensive I have seen! As the name suggests, it's named after the Mongolian warrior, Genghis Khan. The food itself isn't Mongolian, but apparently this is how Genghis Khan fed his army after a brutal battle. Fun fact, huh? The basic concept of the Mongolian BBQ is simple. First, you fill a bowl up with raw meats (namely chicken, beef, lamb, and seafood), vegetables, sauces, oils and noodles. I'm not too much of a meat expert but I thought their meats were of fairly good quality. Then, you take it up to the chefs manning the huge hotplate in the middle of the restaurant, and watch them cook your selection to perfection (hey, that rhymed)! There is also fried rice and white rice available, as well as garlic bread, baked root vegetables and soups. For the vegetarians out there, not only do they have a wide range of vegetables that can be cooked by the chefs, there are plenty of fresh selections at the salad bar. To round your meal off, you can get the chefs to dish you up a pancake. If you ask nicely, they might even be able to make you one in the shape of Mickey Mouse. The pancakes are probably my highlight of the dining experience - super fluffy and they also have a variety of toppings and ice cream which you can put on them. The downside of this place is that it is quite small and it does get very busy. There will be times where you have to wait a while for the chef to cook your meal - my longest wait was nearly 30 minutes! Overall, the atmosphere of Gengis Khan is exciting, although a little noisy at times. Considering that you can eat all to your heart's content, the price is quite reasonable. It is a casual, family-friendly restaurant, so it's definitely more suited for family gatherings. I frequented this place quite often during my high school years, but I feel like I've 'grown out of it'... mainly because most of their patrons are either families or large groups of teenagers. Just make sure that you go hungry!

Let me start off that I am not a Chinese food fan so take that into account (add a star if you…read moreare). With that said, the fish & vegetables that I ordered was very bland and did not come with rice. The chicken and fried rice that my wife ordered was only slightly better but still bland. There was only one waitress who was not very friendly but I blame it to how busy she was - I.e., service was not quick. Like I said before, it may have been better if I liked Chinese food more or order something different but I will not be going back again.

As I entered the…read morerestaurant, I was greeted by a very sweet Chinese lady who sent me down and offer me a pot of tea. The tea was really good. I asked her what was her favorite soup and she said the shredded duck soup. the aroma smells worse, correct, duck! I ordered have a duck, and I ate the whole thing and it was delicious. If you're ever in Auckland, New Zealand, and you feel like having authentic Chinese duck, this is the place.

Travels need to stop here and try this place!…read more We found this wonderful gem by the airport on our trip into Auckland. We had a wait for the rest of our group to arrive by plane and we're starved. The food was fantastic and everything on the buffet and brought to our table was superb. The service by Manish and his service was even better. Clean, wonderfully unique and overall a great experience. Here's the best review overall. My 70-yr old mother was with us and an extremely picky eater. She ate everything served and went back for more. Don't get any better than that.

We came here as my other half's work was having thier Xmas lunch here. There was so many of us…read morethat we took up the majority of the tables in the restaurant. Bad aspect of this was that they ran short of plates actually sitting out by the buffet for you to take for your food so you had to ask eventually when you needed one. Good thing about it being so busy was that they cleared the tables of any dirty plates very quickly, but not return so fast... The selection of food to choose from was really good , both cold and already cooked,and though plates could be lacking there was always ample food to choose from when you went up for 2nd's or 3rd's...etc.. A couple of grills , as there is, per table is good enough for a full table of people The atmosphere is good within ,plenty of parking outside and it is kid friendly if you have them. Amongst all the Korean BBQ places i have been into in Auckland i would reccomend this one first. There may be better out there, just i have not been to them yet. Enjoy!!
