Delicious lunch! I had Ahi Tuna Poke and loved it! Good size portion, reasonably priced! Was with a party of 10 and they split the check, no problem and fast friendly service too!

Awesome food and great service! I had the Seared Miso Sea Scallops from their healthier portion on the menu and it was amazing! They were a little understaffed for a busy Saturday lunch, but the service definitely kept up! Must try!

Stir Crazy is your average Asian/Mongolian Wok restaurant. I’ve been here a couple times and the food has never really been much to write home about in my opinion. It’s not bad by any means, it’s just average. I got the lunch special of sweet and spicy chicken yesterday. I was pleasantly surprised that it came with my choice of an appetizer(I selected the crab rangoon) and soup. The meal was decent. I also ordered the Jade martini which was really good. The service I received was kind of strange. The guy seemed a little too laid back to me, like he was not interested in being there. But that may just be his personality. He poured my cocktail at the table and splashed it everywhere. I literally said«I guess I’m in the splash zone» and he continued to dump it in the glass. If Mongolian stir fry is your thing, then give this place a try.

My wife has been talking about this place for months. So i finally agreed to go with her on Aug 29th. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff, but after eating here I had horrible food poison. I will not be dining here again.

By FAR one of my favorite restaurants! I dine at Stir Crazy at least once a month and never had a bad experience. Try Asian Cajun Tuna entrée — it’s amazing! Same meal will cost you $ 30 and more elsewhere. These guys are fantastic and always willing to make any changes or additions to my meals! Luis(the chef) is fantastic!

Let’s be clear this is a chain — but for what it is — contemporary Americanized Asian with an extensive make your own bowl, it’s really always one of our favorite places. The food and wait staff are consistently good. I always love a salmon or tofu bowl and the people with me, even meat people, are happy too. Stuff a lot of veggies in the bowl and frequently there’s enough for an extra lunch. For quality and the type of healthier food that most people prefer, Stir Crazy is definitely an easy choice.

We had great service on a busy Saturday night, and a fun atmosphere. We all chose the market grill, where you fill up a bowl with your choice of ingredients, and loved it — very fresh ingredients, including fresh ginger, garlic, and cilantro. Kids meal was a good –sized portion. We’ll be back!

Went here years ago and it was awful. Decided to get a Groupon and give it another try… I should not have wasted my money! We ordered Orange chicken and Kung Pao chicken. Portion size was good, but all we could taste was slight heat. The sauce had a faint flavor of what it should have been before it was watered down. The server was so aloof that I would almost call it rude. And here is the gross part… the server was eating the fruit from the bar as he was getting my husband a soda refill, still chewing as he came to the table. Ewwww. Don’t waste your money on this place.

Me and my wife both tried the market bar where you chose your vegetables, protein and grains with sauce and the cook cook in front of. I did not enjoy my food although my wife loved her food and thats her 2nd time in this restaurent. First time for me ofcourse. We had a calamri as a starter and that was very tasty. Calamris were cooked perfectly and they use some black seasme seeds which worked with the calamari. I would like to give them a try one more time.

Service was a little slow, especially considering it was lunch time and not terribly crowded. Eating here is fun when you make your own bowl. There’s standing wait time while it cooks, however. If you want to order off the menu, good luck narrowing your selection. There are far too many options, and limited visual aids. This place is a very American style experience trying to be Asian.

I met a former co-worker at Stir Crazy for lunch. It was my first time since I don’t have a lot of meals in these large chains. I went in with an open mind and was pleasantly surprised. This is a well-run operation that is large, bright and clean. We both had the Lunch Market Bar where you pick the style; Phở, Noodle or Rice and then your meat if you desire. I had brown rice with chicken. They provide a bowl with two compartments, one for the vegetables and one for the seasoning sauces. You fill the large one with your choice of vegetables and the small one with your choice of sauces. They cook it for you with your meat selection and serve it with your noodle/rice/phở style. Cooking is done in individual woks and I’m sure the attention to cooking is better than on the typical Mongolian grill. I liked that the portion packet of chicken was not the frozen sliced type that they have at some of these places. I seasoned mine with Mongolian Sauce and Thai BBQ sauce. Ms T informed me that my serious garlic breath lasted for over 48 hours, so beware! While I have had OK experiences at places like Mongolian BBQ, I have never managed to get the right flavors into my dish, regardless of using double the amount of the sauces that they recommend. Here at Stir Crazy, I hit it perfectly the first time, with less sauce. I assume that the sauces are richer at Stir Crazy. I hope I can repeat it. There is no buffet here, but that is fine with me. Much of the food on those large buffets is not very good. Besides, I never need to eat that much. One of these bowls is plenty for me and Stir crazy has a number of interesting things on their menu so you don’t have to do the build-your-own thing. I have not eaten at HuHot or Ghengis Grill, but I call this a notch above Mongolian Bar-B-Que in Chesterfield in quality, in cleanliness and in the feel you get.

Ate lunch here. Waiter was a complete moron. First he brought the wrong meal to my colleague and then when they asked to be comped because that is not what they ordered, he charged them anyway. Instead of making a fuss we just paid for it. I said don’t worry, a review on Unilocal will hit much harder than them giving back the $ 8 or so for whatever it was we ordered. Might be back to give it another try. I really wanted to like this place.

We unfortunately don’t make it out to Stir Crazy enough, it always seems that it is for a birthday or some other celebration. I don’t have a problem with that, but their food is so good that I always want to go here. Recently my wife has been on a strict diet for health reasons and we haven’t been out to eat together since 2 ½ months ago. It was my birth day and we really didn’t have any options that would play well with her diet. She contacted the manager at Stir Crazy and explained everything that she couldn’t eat and he was more than pleased to work with her on all her needs. They set aside Steak that was un marinated and they didn’t add anything to her stir fry that she couldn’t have. They even used a sanitized Wok for her food. They were over the top helpful and it was really nice to see them make such an effort when so many are very secretive and stand offish about working with food intolerances. Altogether it was a great evening and I really enjoyed myself. I got the Crab Rangoon half order and loved them. I also went all out and got the Ultimate meet trio with my Market Bar Wok creation so I got Steak, Shrimp, and Chicken. I also love loading up my Wok with Veggies and a mix of sauces, I love the creations I make here and watching the skill of the guys behind the glass cooking up my food. There is something about seeing flames and sizzling food that makes for an awesome experience. I will hopefully be back more often thanks to their help with our food requirements. :)

After movie, it was already 2PM. We wanted to find a place not too far from AMC12. Luckily, There were still some customers in Stir Crazy. After us, there were even more people come in. Looked like they were just finished their movies, too. We both chose«work your way.» Step 1. Told the waiter I want vegetarian or tofu, $ 9.99. Add meats will be +$ 1.00 up. Step 2. Chose noodles or rice. Step 3. The waiter brought us the bowls. Then we could go and choose our vegetables. Step 4. Gave it to a cooker and waited for the bowl. One thing should be noticed, one spoon of sauce is not enough. It is a real work-my-way thing. They won’t add extra sauce. I kind of like it. It is fun and knowing each other what kind of vegetables he likes. And we learned the portions between vegetables and sauce. Will make a better bowl next time.

Okay I wanted to give this place a review because it’s only fair I do. I’ve been here a few times for my lunch break and usually I go at the times when there is only one server on. I diner stand being a server, but u don’t get the attention. It’s always been pretty divided and slow for me. Anyways, they changed their menu. The food is decent, I honestly would prefer pei Wei. A think a little over prized but not terrible. Staff is nice. I would love to go on a rush so that I can get the feel or atmosphere that it carries. I have tried their Mongolian beef plate, pad Thai and their crab Rangoon. Honestly the food is like any other Asian restaurant. Nothing exciting.

Yet another 3-star, A-OK rating for a restaurant by my work(geez, I feel so sorry for you county people with these dining options). Although slightly overpriced and slightly oversauced, my lunch combo of half pork potstickers and half kung pao chicken was pretty good. Hit a few narly spots on the chicken breast(big pet peeve), but the flavor was good and it had plenty of veggies. They do have a massive menu, service was great, and you can always create your own stir fry, so they have that going for them.

Everyone who I have taken there have loved this place as much as I always do. The market bar is my favorite. I have tried most of the dishes here from appetizers to desserts and they have ways accommodates my no meat option. Their menu suits everyone — vegetarian, slice lover, sweet tooth person, weight watchers and the like. I like the bright ambience of the place and the chopsticks that hold the shrimp on the ceiling =)

Eh. So-so. I ordered the lunch special at the advice of my server, which included an app and entrée for around $ 11. I got the chicken potstickers(which he also recommended) and they were super bland, gummy and chewy. For the main course I had the kung pao chicken with brown rice. Again, the brown rice was sort of gummy. The chicken had good flavor, but there wasn’t a lot of it. I probably should’ve done the make your own grill, but I was sort of in a hurry and didn’t want to bother with it. If I was near another Stir Crazy I’d give the fresh grill a whirl and steer clear of the menu. Service was effeicient and polite.

I’m not someone who is a huge fan of Asian cuisine, but I will say that truly enjoyed my meal here. I had the Garlic Chicken, which had nice size chunks of veggies and just the right amount of chicken. I was definitely wondering if they would skimp on the meat like most places do. I like the fact that for diners of one, they offer certain appetizers in a ½ order. I ordered the crab wontons/rangoon. Perfect amount for me.
