It wasn’t terrible, but I wouldn’t recommend it. The food was not great and had too much salt. The service was slow despite the restaurant being 1/3 full and it took a long time for us to get our leftovers boxed. It sufficed, but I most likely won’t return

Stopped by The Mandarin Chinese while hoping for some great Chinese food in town. The location was convenient, and the space itself is quite nice, with the added bonus of upstairs seating. Service was smooth; we came on a Friday evening, got seated right away, and dishes arrived in a steady flow.
Unfortunately, the experience was a bit mixed. The sizzling rice soup was disappointing; it came out lukewarm and didn’t sizzle at all, with a watered-down broth....

Such a nice restaurant, with incredibly professional and attentive staff. Their food was so amazingly delicious!! We got pork and bell pepper, Mongolian beef, dan dan noodles, roasted green beans, scallion pancakes, and pork potstickers. They were all sooooo good. The inside is also very fancy and nice, there's tablecloths, and two different floors to eat at. I highly recommend it!!
