This is the best $13 buffet I have ever spent! I was doubtful at first, but it is perfect! You choose everything yourself and prepare it exactly how you like it. You get 4 choice of meat (chicken, beef, pork, and lamb), small shrimp and squid (at the end of the line); at least 20 choices of vegetables and fixing; 10 or more choices of sauces. Tips: don't go overboard and fill your bowl like a mountain! Just get enough (fill to the bowl rim is perfect), so that by the time you finish eating the bowl, the food would still be warm/hot; then go back for second or third. Also this give you a chance to try different meat or prepping to see how you like it. Turn out, I love lamb! They also have a really good crisp/fried (wonton chip?) and egg drop soup as a side waiting for you at the table. Desert is simple - fruit, jello, and soft serve ice ice cream. I don't need a 1000 item of food selection and over stuff myself just because I can, this small selection of Mongolian food is perfect! This is the best $13 I have every spent on a buffet.

I've been to many Mongolian bbq places years ago so when I found Chang's nearby, I was super excited. Straight on the door, they showed you the All-You-Can-Eat price. I was a bit surprised as the price has increased in the past few months (looking from some previous pictures) but no problem as we were craving for dinner. When we entered, one of the staff noticed us. He pointed a booth for us and asked us to go straight to the buffet. They provided disposable gloves to keep the spoons clean. They have thin sliced pork, beef, chicken, and lamb, as well as tofu for protein. They also have shrimp & squid (previously frozen) at the end of the line - after the sauce section. The vegetable looked fresh and there were lots to choose from. I was super disappointed with the sauce. They were all watered down. For the first round, I put a ladleful of each sauce that I wanted but after it was cooked, the food was bland! So, for the second round, I put two ladlefuls of each sauce and still it was bland. For the third round, I basically doused my bowl with sauces and it finally tasted something. Also, the squid pieces that I picked wasn't cooked - was still raw & rubbery. With AYCE, you'll get a big bowl of rice, soup, and crispy wonton chips. The soup was bland. The crispy wonton chips were good. Overall, it was too expensive for the price. The meat & veggie quality were good but the sauce was meh. It was a solid 3.5 stars for me.

Great food, decent prices ($11 for kids under 10, $15ish for adults, add $2 for unlimited) , and great vegetarian and vegan options. Before I came I was wondering if they were going to have tofu, a good enough variety of veggies, and a clean veggie area (with meat separated from the veggies) and I was please to find all are true. Very happy with the options. They also serve free wonton, white rice, and egg drop soup right to your table while you're at the buffet area. Afterwards, there is soft serve for the kiddos and for you. Music was kept at a low enough volume, bathrooms were clean, tables were clean, and the staff was friendly and quick to refill waters. We will 100% be back.

I visited Chang's Mongolian Grill recently and had a decent experience overall. While the concept of customizing your meal with protein and sauces was great, I felt that it would have been even better if they could stir-fry white rice and egg along with the protein and sauces instead of providing them separately. Additionally, the quality of the starter fried chips could be improved. On a positive note, I appreciated the fact that they offer swirl ice cream, which was a nice touch. With a few adjustments, Chang's Mongolian Grill could definitely enhance the dining experience.

NO FLAVOR. NO LIFE. NOT AYCE! What a disappointment. The ambiance is like a morgue. Staff never talks to you. And the food is equally lifeless. The sauces are cheap quality and diluted so far as to lack any flavor. They charge you per plate so AYCE is not true. Lunch costs $18.69 / person for two bowls excluding tip. Chef never took his eyes off his cell phone and we had dirty dishes throughout our meal. Ran out of lamb for lunch and no refill. Booths are filthy. Certainly not to Folsom minimal standards. Sorry, will not return. Keep expectations low.

Absolutely wonderful buffet style stir fry! Great complimentary chips & sauce on the table. Delicious options to put in your bowl for stir fry from meats, noodles, veggies, & different sauces. Atmosphere is cozy. The staff is nice, friendly, & checks in & refills water often. We knew it must be good on our first visit when we happened to arrive right before dinner opening & there was already a group of people waiting to be let in. It's popular & I see why! Chang's is a new favorite place in the area.
