GK Mongolian BBQ — Restaurant in California

I'm giving this rating 2 stars because we like the food. Otherwise it would be 1 star for the following reasons. Staff was pleasant not out going or positive but just pleasant. With that said the cleanliness...we should have left once we walked in the door. Keep in mind there were 5 customers in the establishment at the time. Our family wont be eating at the Manteca location again if there is food droppings all along the food bin aisle floor, the sauce counter was not appealing- droppings of food as well as sauce all along the counter. We tried looking for a high chair that looked whipped down at the end of the day but found none. You have 3 teenagers working that day and the place looked as if it hadn't been clean in 2 days. The manager should make an effort to TEACH the staff how to properly clean. If the establishment is not at the very least clean what makes the owners think customers trust the handling of the food...

For food quality and taste this place is in the negative - The people who work here are very friendly. My dish tasted old. Almost like they needed to clean the round cook top. The tables were set for us. The the chilies sauces were really dirty. Underneath the lid was black mold stuff. The potstickers they gave us were tasted old like if they were reheated. Some were even burned bad. Soup tasted old as well. And how in the world to you mess up white steamed rice. I have no clue how that happens. The rice cooker does the work. Most likely that was reheated as well because it was hard and very dry. They cups they served our drinks were greasy. Ya no not going back here ever. Not good food by any means and the price is way to high for the quality of food. I believe the owners keep a close eye through the cameras that are in the restaurant. So I hear. They should know that the quality is in the trash....

When I got there there was two people in front. One was cleaning the tables and the other was cleaning the spot where they cook the noodles. They had no bowls and no chicken and noodles. Additionally the food area where you go to fill up your bowl was completely filthy. I specifically asked for them to refill the chicken and the refilled the beef instead. They were well aware that I was standing there for a while waiting on them to refill the chicken, veggies and noodles. I would understand if they would have been busy, but I was the only one there. I saw them go to the back and joke around for a long time, did not reassure me that they were bringing everything out. I have gone there for the past 6 years and have noticed it getting bad over the years. Nothing compared to the recent encounter but sadly was one of my favorite spots to eat here in the 209, but can't say the same. So ended...
