Food Scene

This restaurant is right around the corner (Less than a 5 minute drive). For those who are looking for a healthier option I recommend the fresh Mongolian grill as it's great for customizing your meal, especially if you have any kind of dietary restrictions. The grill offers you an array of raw veggies, meats, sauces and toppings to choose from which they grill up fresh for you. I recommend staying away from the already cooked food in the buffet as it has MSG (Note: ask about the sauces with the grill because a couple of them may also have MSG)
