Pleasure to see the family owning and working together. My friends and I felt like we just visited some one's home and where we would be always welcomed.

I love everything about this place. I've been here twice for dinner. The food is absolutely fantastic. It is fresh, delicious, and clearly served with love. The service is so friendly and there is real pride taken in the food. Many reviews speak to the authenticity of the food - I myself have no idea what Mongolian should or should not be, but I can say this place is awesome! Highly recommended.

Very quiet and extremely authentic takes a little longer for the food but you know it's being made by their hand and not fast microwave

Amazing food with even more amazing service. Mazalae has delicious authentic Mongolian food at great prices, it has become a weekend routine for me and my friends and it’s a hidden gem we bring friends/family from out of town to.The food is cooked to order so it is always fresh and absolutely worth the wait. The service is exceptional; kind, welcoming and they will answer any questions you may have about the menu. Dishes are big and perfect for sharing so you and your party can enjoy multiple things in the menu.
Great service, even better food. The place is so cozy and feels like home, the food is super delicious but very affordable. Best way to order to share as the plates are quite big.

Good home cooking Mongolian food. Having never been to Mongolia, nor eaten Mongolian good before, my experience here is exactly how I would describe it, good home cooking. The restaurant has nice heavy tables that seat about 20-30 people. We went for a weekday lunch and there were 2 other tables at the time. The waitress and owner was so kind and friendly and helped us decide what to order, telling us what the popular dishes were. We ordered the Buuz, Khuushuur, Huitsaa and Bin. Everything was delicious. The Buuz are steamed dumplings, 9 to an order. The had beef inside and the filling was similar to the Khuushuur filling too. The Khuushuur was their beef empanada, but the dough was not as flaky and crispy as an empanada but still tasty. The Huitsaa was not like any kind of stew I've tasted- it has meatballs and different kinds of veggies in it with also clear noodles. And it also had dill in it too. The Bin was their fried bread which is like the Khuushuur dough. The owner also gave us some of the milk tea to try- not as salty as I thought it would be, tasty and went well with the fried foods. A fantastic visit to this restaurant and we will be back to try some other things.

I loooove this place. This was my first time having Mongolian food. I've been back so many times since, and I look forward to it every time. I wish more people knew about this place and its food. Run, don't walk!

Great hospitality and good home cooked food. Great portion sizes good value, will return. You know that great feeling you get when you feel welcomed to a meal at a friendly auntie's home? That's how I felt with this experience was. The owner is so gracious and kind. We felt loved and welcomed. She walked us through the menu and helped us select a few key dishes that stand out for us first timers. (Not a first timer anymore and I'll be back for sure!). She served us hot steamy milk tea - Mongolian style which is a tad saltier side (goes well with cold weather and the food we had). The beef pastry (6 large dumplings) was excellent, freshly hand-made that day (they were making more as we were eating). The beef patty inside is moist, flavored with onion and the shell was nicely fried, good texture, not too greasy. Soup came out next which we shared amongst our table. It was definitely hot and steamy, a hint of dill, roasted potatoes meatballs. Heart warming for sure and the slippery glass noodles were fun to slurp. Flatbread came out and it was light and fluffy, a bit of crunch went really well with the soup. The dumplings came out and I was amazed at the plumpness and the serving size. Very happy, served with a dipping sauce on the side which brought out the beefy flavors of the dumpling. Really enjoyed our time there. It's a small shop, and it's like the owners family inviting you over for a meal cooked with love and care. I'll be back to try the noodle dish I saw another table have. Three tables were active while we were there on a rainy Friday lunch,and seems like the other table ordered exactly the same as we did. Parking on the street non-metered.

It's my first time having authentic Mongolian food. Kind need to add / adjust to your taste with salt / flavor. Rich in broth. Very friendly owner and service - explain the whole thing about their homemade everything dishes. Yes - I recommend this place especially if you have not had real Mongolian food.
