What to Avoid (10)

Food 9

  1. Baos Net −1

    “Barbecue 2 lamb chops per person? And call yourself “buffet” ? Ridiculous.”

  8. Seafood grill Net −1
    “The seafood grill was a tad salty.”

Tips for a Better Visit

1

Check Allergens. If you have allergies, confirm every sauce yourself; one diner was served sesame after warning staff and needed an EpiPen.

2

Confirm Readiness. For lunch, confirm the buffet is actually set up before travelling; one reservation was promised a 1pm service that was not ready.

The Bottom Line

Mongol Ger is a self-cook hotpot and grill buffet in Palm Jumeirah. You choose ingredients, prepare hotpot at the table and use the BBQ setup; the experience suits groups who enjoy interactive dining rather than a conventional served meal. Reviews often point to the hotpot soup, lamb kebabs, steak and seafood as the strongest reasons to come.

There are some appealing extras. Diners have praised the grilled lamb, chicken wings, scallops, lobsters and London Dairy ice cream, while the restaurant’s view and the Palm Fountain show add atmosphere at dinner. Staff have sometimes been helpful when explaining how to cook the soup, and several reviews describe friendly service.

The catch is inconsistency. Other visits found old or freezer-burned meat, stale-looking vegetables, salty food, limited buffet choices and dishes missing at opening. Service has also been slow or disorganised, and one serious review describes sesame sauce being served after a nut-and-seed allergy was disclosed.

Treat allergy communication as a safety check, not a casual request. Past reviews quote buffet prices of 129 AED, 140 dirhams and 169 Dhs, so confirm the current rate and what is included. Bring the parking receipt if seeking the reported three-hour parking arrangement, and check the final bill for extra charges.
