I come here all the time. This is my favorite place in Bakersfield. I live in Taft and I drive an hour just to eat here. The food is AMAZING, always fresh, the staff is nice and the portions are enormous.
When I do the ordering the portion sizes are great!!
For how busy this place gets, they really get you in and out. I love the thai boba, orange chicken and lo mein (might be chow mein i forget the differnce. Servings are plentiful and i’ve never had a complaint in regards to any of the food i’ve tried. The vibe reminds me so much of my days living in the heart of The Mission in SF, the line goes right through the center of seating in the restaurant but there it plenty of room to get around and the bench booths are quite spacious.

Mandarin Express, a hidden gem in East Bakersfield, offers delicious Chinese cuisine with massive portions and low prices. The food is always packed with flavor, with standout dishes like Kung Pao Chicken and Chow Mein. Many customers appreciate the dedication to getting their orders right, especially when ordering in advance. However, the customer service could use some improvement in terms of staff engagement. While the restaurant's sanitation has been questioned due to some concerns, the overall dining experience remains enjoyable. The atmosphere may feel slightly sticky at times, but it does not overshadow the amazing flavors and value. Mandarin Express is a must-try for those seeking an authentic and satisfying Chinese dining experience.
