Went to HuHot Mongolian Grill on Olive Blvd. last night for dinner. I have their rewards card (and a free grill meal coupon from the rewards), so I decided to revisit after a long break. The restaurant itself is located in a strip mall west of 270 on the north side of Olive (due west of the huge AMC theatre complex). Inside it is set up like an old Ponderosa with a hostess stand and areas of the room bracketed off by low walls. After seated with a menu, a server came around shortly to take my drink and appetizer order, to find out if I wanted hot and sour soup or a salad with my dinner buffet, and to see if I would like white or brown rice. My complete order consisted of a grill meal (you ca...
We went on July 5th at lunch. The location was not staffed to handle a small lunch crowd. They were running a 20 minute wait even though half the tables were open and nobody was seated. When we did get seated we found out why, the cooking staff could not keep up. If the dinning room was full they would have been in even more trouble. As we were going through the line the guy filling the line up was trying to fill a sauce and he threw it across the bar and missed the vat, causing a huge mess all over the place and almost getting all over my family, his comment was i normally don 't miss Well buddy i don 't think you should be throwing liquid, especially when people are right there. As we were...
After 2.5 years, HuHot is open again in Creve Coeur! They opened a few weeks ago. Not mobbed yet, but business appears to be picking up! So, many things are the same here. You go up and select uncooked items you want in your dish (like noodles, protein, veggies, etc) and then pour over a combination of available sauces. They cook your food while you watch, and then you go back to your table and eat! Rice is provided at your table, and you get an Asian salad, or a garden salad or egg drop soup. What is different? Well, no eggs, unfortunately. I thought the Asian salad was actually better than I remembered it. Overall, this is a fun experience and very good for families. Very good!
We were in the area and craving Asian cuisine, so we decided to try the Mongolian flash fry style at HuHot. Having eaten this type of food at other places, we approached this experience with a point of comparison. Overall, we would rate it as average. The all-you-can-eat stir fry allows you to create your own dishes with various food and seasoning options for around $12.50 per person. However, we were disappointed that shrimp wasn't offered as a meat option. The staff was generally efficient, but not particularly friendly. Given our experience, we’re not likely to return.

Here you choose like what you want to have in your bowl ,put everything from variety of options add some great sauces from available options and and few more extra taste makers : , pass to chef they can grill it for you on huge grill, this grill is common for all,so you have have someone else's food is being grilled next to your. Over all ok experience. I choose to go with veg options,so got many veggies with brown rice. you can choose noodle also if you want. Its unlimited so you can do as many time and combinations as you want.
This is definitely one of my favourites. I went with my Hubby couple of times and for one of the Ladies nights!! Love the way the buffet is placed They keep all veggies, Meat for meat lovers and their sauces so that so you can pick, mix, match your own choices. They list ingredients in sauces as well The only thing you have to say after filling your veggies and Sauces is tell them you are Vegeterian and clean the space and spoons for you before they make your food!!
On a positive note, I have a gluten allergy and the worker who helped me was super friendly and helpful. The rest of the experience was ho hum. Food was so so, cooks looked unhappy, disgruntled stomach following, My dish was supposed to be hot and wasn't at all. Ridiculously small bowls to fill -You need at least 3 (which is not easy to maneuver) to make a small plate of food in the end. Pricey and wouldn't go back.
This place us awesome, used to come here every year on my birthday before they closed. wish you guys would reopen, id probably spend all my savings to eat here again, i really dont wanna have to go all the way out to Colombia :

They are extremely clean and the staff is very helpful and friendly. Great prices or all-you-can-eat Mongolian grill type food! Will definitely be back any time I'm in the area
My mom and I's favorite lunch spot. This place is great for a family on different diets. Food is always great and the drinks are pretty darn good too. I visit once a week!
