Huhot Mongolian Grill

This was super tough to review. So I have to base it on over all experience. Food is frozen and tastes like frozen food. You have to mix your own ingredients so it can be hit or miss. I made two plates and both came out bad. Yes I know I’m to blame for the flavor combinations but I don’t know how to mix Mongolian to make a good flavor. But for just a walk in customer it can be a bit confusing with bad results. The price was good for a buffet but you have to like what your eating to make it a value. Floor needs to be vacuumed . The buffet area was a disaster. I think I’ll take a pass on this restaurant there are way to many other places to eat in Fargo.

After our family of 8 (6 young kids) wrapped up a full day of shopping for winter gear, we were hungry and exhausted. We chose HuHot as our late night food spot and are so glad we did. We ordered easily and had immediate access the all you can eat buffet and grill. Loads of meat, veggies, and sauce options and a super fast grilling action. For kid who prefer a more normal meal, mac n cheese or chicken tenders are available for order. The staff was very friendly, courteous, and helpful. The table and seating was clean and the atmosphere was both relaxing and vibrant. This is a special dining experience you don't want to miss!! Jason, the manager, is a terrific host and he even entertained our children at the grill! Such fun! And FWIW, kids 3-12 can enjoy the entire buffet for only $3.99.

11-21-20 - We went to the HuHot restaurant today for the first time. It was very easy to figure out. Basically filling a bowl with all kinds of veggies and meats then presenting it to the guys at the huge grill to cook while you watch out all be done. Then you return to your table to eat. The price is for all you can eat so your are allowed as many trips a you would like. It gives you a chance to try different combinations for fun! Attached are photos of our final masterpieces! This was a fun place to eat. The table host was accommodating and friendly! 12-9-21 - We visited this fun place once again! Everything was great once again and there were far less people this time. We were able to have some fun conversations with the cooks and now I can add more photos! We love this place and we will be back for sure!

HuHot is an all you can eat buffet style restaurant where you make a bowl full of noodles, meat, vegetables, and sauce and you watch the chefs cook it on this big circular grill. At this HuHot, the wait staff was very friendly and quick. The line was long, but that expected on a weekend. The prices were surprisingly good. I went with two friends and it was $20 per person. It was an overall great experience and I'd love to come back if I'm ever in Fargo again.

The restaurant was packed. The waitress was very nice. She got our drink orders correct and provided my husband and I a bowl of rice (for me; I don't eat the noodles). Going through the process of making our bowls was kind of hectic. There were children who were pretty much left to their own devices. I felt slightly uncomfortable because people were standing too close to me. I feel like if there are that many people in the line, there should be a worker there to start limiting the amount of people getting in line. Just have a chain or something like the fair to cut off the line. The first round of food was fine, and I wanted to go back for seconds, but even more people were coming into the restaurant. I decided to not go for seconds, as it was so crowded, I wouldn't have been able to even get a bowl! My husband went back for seconds, and I had mentioned during the first round that I wondered how they would be able to remember who had what. Well, my husband got back to the table and he noticed that he was given the wrong plate! I was upset for him because again, there was no one to manage the amount of people who were crowding the entire area. I flagged a waitress down and we told her that the cooks gave my husband the wrong plate. She only apologized and asked us if we wanted to go make another. We told her no, because it would take longer than necessary to even get the ingredients. She apologized again and brought the check. We still ended up paying almost $40 for just the two of us and one incorrect plate that my husband didn't eat. There really should have been some accountability, and the managers should really start having limitations on the amount of people allowed to go at one time. That many people all making their bowls and then being backed up to the point that other people can't even start making their bowls shows that there needs to be structure and limitations. My main point and complaint is that even when we told someone that my husband was given the incorrect plate, we still had to pay almost $40! That's not how it should have been. And they brought him out another cup of pop and he didn't ask for it or drink it! Our first visit to the Fargo HuHot may be our last.

Very happy I stopped here. Awesome concept of a hibachi style buffet. Everything was delicious, hot and fresh. Likely to come back because the combination of ingredients and sauces is endless. It would be hard to replicate a meal twice. Although it could use a little more cleanliness, still 5 stars from me.
