Ding How Mongolian BBQ

Expensive for a buffet place but it is Alaska. Looking at around 17 per person and the food isn't the best and it is really filling. The only dessert is ice cream but it is really divine. The restuarant is fairly quiet with nice staff and feels very Asian inside. The art work and such is very cool. There are two serving places where you can build a bowl and make a stir fry or just eat at the buffet which is what I did. The buffet is really clean and so are the plates on which you dine. There is a fee of 7 dollars you can be charged with if you leave too much food leftover on your plate that you don't eat. Overall, I wouldn't make this a weekly dine in, too expensive and not the best quality of food.

Easily my favorite restaurant. Very affordable for the portions offered. I have to go here every time I'm in Anchorage, no exceptions.

Really this place deserves 2.5 stars but it wouldn't let me rate it half. I'm from Houston so I've eaten at quite a few Chinese Buffets and Hibachi style restaurants with expansive buffet options. This place had an extremely small buffet option compared to what I usually see but I went with it. The first issue is the $7 fee for wasted food. Already having limited options and never having eaten there it makes you almost scared to try anything for fear of being charged, when did restaurants start using scare tactics to save money? Not too mention the base charge for one person is 13.95 so add $7 for a wasted plate and it can get pricey for chinese buffet. Typically I would pay $9-$11 per person at one of these so it seems a bit exorbitant. Now for the food, the hibachi seems to be the best part though the meats look flash frozen or something, my family still enjoyed it. The rest of the buffet items were debatable, as it was not more than 12 items what was good and what was bad made pickings seem even slimmer. As a noodle enthusiast I went straight for the lo mein, sadly it was bland and sauceless so I couldn't eat it but forced myself for fear of the $7 wasted food charge. Honestly I would not come back or recommend this place for lunch unless you enjoy being bullied by price gouging. You'd probably be better off just ordering in.

It’s a good Mongolian joint, but Twin Dragon is better.

Twin Dragon has better buffet selection and a better Mongolian BBQ selection as well.

The only thing this place has that’s better is the ice cream machine.
