The New Mandarin Garden has been consistently prepared with high-quality ingredients, and no mystery meat is present. The ownership has undergone a significant transformation, resulting in a significant improvement in the quality of the food. You won't be disappointed. Delicious and generous sized portions.

The Google listing is incorrect it reads that the establishment is a buffet. This is no longer the case.
I'm not saying I'm disappointed with the food it was great.
Although I was looking forward to a buffet if I'm ever in the area I would definitely come back

We have been dining at New Mandarin Garden for the last twenty years through the two changes of ownership. It is on our rotation for meals.

We felt that a couple of our favorite dishes were not as good under the recent new ownership. However, we dined there last week and the food was great and better than ever!! Their portions were very generous also.

Our favorite dishes to order are:
-Pan fried dumplings
-Honey Walnut Shrimp
-Cilantro Chicken
-House Special Chicken
-Moo Goo Gai Pan (Chicken with mushrooms)
-Beef and Broccoli
-Sizzling beef
-Moo Shu Pork
-String beans with meat sauce
-Baby Bok Choy
-Chicken Fried Rice
-Singapore Rice Noodles (curry flavored)

I ordered the mushu pork with no sweet sauce. It was swimming in it! On top of that the guy didn't repeat my order and it appeared as though I was bothering him. Live local, last visit!

We really love the food, we order Wor Wonton soup, Beef wontons for appetizer, the kung pay chicken, shrimp with lobster sauce and chicken fried rice, all the food was well served and tasted excellent! The service was also excellent. We will definitely come back.

Glad I didn't listen to some of the reviews. I was impressed by the flavor and quality of the food as well as the quantity. Being from Los Angeles where Chinese food is king, this place rates among the top 3 in my favorites. I highly recommend this place if vacationing you will not be disappointed

Great food for over 33 years. Great Sunday brunch

We ordered directly from their website. EXCELLENT. Mushu pork and egg rolls were so good I thought about ordering massive quantities and freezing them for future binges. Really good..

Visually tired uninspired Chinese restaurant. Looked like an old Denny's. Why can't there be nice Chinese restaurants with traditional food? If it's nice, it's gourmet. The quantity was great, but the flavor could be improved - the kung Pao needs more veggies.

What happened? This was our go to place for Chinese food!
Our still large steamed dumplings were stuffed into a small container all stuck to each other and the pork was tasteless.
The Mongolian beef was usually served in large tray but now was half the size. Still tasty.
I suggest going back to the way things were or the customer base will disappear quickly.
