Joel's Asian Grill - Mooresville

Waitress brought out the wrong order. She then proceeded to argue with us that we were wrong. She did eventually bring the correct item out, but charged us for the incorrect items that were much more expensive.

Mr Joel has retired to the Philippines. New owners have kept the place about the same.

All around, good. Expansive menu with options that would satisfy all. Great service. Comfortable atmosphere.I had the bento box, which was quite satisfying as I was hungry for a little bit of everything.

Food was incredible. I’ve already recommended to two friends to go and eat there

Hadn't eaten at Joel's in quite some time. Decided to give them a try since I was craving Mongolian beef, and it was prominent on their menu. Ordered this with some pad thai. The pad thai was pretty good, although the usual sesame topping was something inedible that I had to spit out. But the dish had a decent flavor. The Mongolian beef, on the other hand, was the worst I've ever had. In fact it didn't look like or taste like any Mongolian beef I've ever seen. This is a pretty consistent dish in most restaurants, but this version seemed more like Szechuan beef than Mongolian. Stir-fry veggies with tough pieces of beef and spices that are nothing close to traditional, along with steamed rice that was overcooked (near mushy), left me deeply regretting this order.Joel's is great for sushi, and even noodle dishes/pho, but the Mongolian beef was a huge miss. This is not their forte.
