  Good filling food served quickly and fresh, tasted intense. Need slightly bigger cups for beverages.

  The Mongolian beef was fantastic. Watching the automated system prepare the meal before my eyes was really cool. I look forward to trying other dishes.

  I stopped in on a whim to check out a new restaurant after an appointment down the street. I was quite pleasantly surprised. I was expecting the 'normal' fast food experience for asian food: one scoop of rice, a protein portion, side item. Instead, I got a surprisingly large container tub that had a LOT of rather well prepped, in my opinion, white rice in it along with a fit-in tray on top with my order (the jade beef and broccoli, ordered on recommendation of the cashier, for $13.99). Since I was dining in, I was able to get the Value Meal, which was $2 for a canned drink and a snack (what iWok calls the appetizer menu: Options were chicken egg roll, crab rangoon, and veggie spring roll. I went with the spring rolls). Came with a set of chopsticks, toothpick, and a spork in a sealed pouch as well as soy sauce, sriacha sauce, and sweet and sour sauce. The beef was quite well prepped, tasted like actual beef (which I despair at having to use as a description these days, as I have run into some restaurants downgrading the cut of their meat in response to raising prices), broccoli was fresh. Everything was well-cooked without feeling overdone or soggy. Veggie Spring rolls were light but a nice side-garnish to the main event of the rice bowl. All in all, quite a fast, pleasant lunch. Filling, left me happy to gush about it online and to the staff (as they'd asked me to tell them how I liked it), and I'll probably be going back again the next time I'm in the area with a craving for Asian food flavors. Aside: Gaifan is apparently Mongolian for 'sauce on rice'. Learn something new everyday. I stopped in the bathroom to wash my hands before the meal, and it was clean and in good condition as well. I think the only negatives I can really think of are that the dine-in area is a bit small (two booths, several two-person tables) and the location is a little awkward (you can only really pull into it if heading down Holcombe/Bellaire away from the Medical Center), but those are fairly minor nitpicks, all things considered, and not unique problems for dining along Holcombe/Bellaire restaurants.
