I don't go to any other Chinese food places now. After years of feeling like I was eating more salt than food at other places, I was so happy to have flavorful dishes without the huge amounts of salt. This is the best Chinese food I have had. I highly recommend!! 11 out of 10 stars.

This place used to have a fair quality prior to Covid. Now it is awful. For $16 you get a box of house Chow Main with mystery meats. Dark dried up left over re-purposed lunch meat sold as beef. Microscpoic 2 shrimps. And white cube shape mystery meat aka chicken. Tastless with overcooked noodles.
I am surprised this place is still in business. No sauce, no utensil. Not even a pack of soy sauce. NOT EDIBLE AT ALL. We really think they are taking left over lunch specials and make it into so called House Chow Main. All is dried, tastless....please call it mystery Chow Main Not House.

This place is absolutely fantastic with delicious authentic chinese food and best service! I felt home and eat with a peace of mind just like my mom cook for me years ago! We ordered a beef chow fun and hunan lamb with spicy sauce. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Chinese comfort food. Even if you’re new to Chinese food, you will be surprised with the quality and variety of options available! Give this place a try!

I was here for lunch and had the Mongolian Beef, Fried Rice and an Egg Roll. All were good.

Because it is Chinese New Year, we want to eat Chinese food to celebrate the New Year.
Found this 4.5 starts on Google view, so came to try it out since it's very close to us.

This should be American-style Chinese food, which is sweet, even the soup is slightly sweet.

Maybe because it’s run by family, there were a lot of to-go orders. Even though there were only two tables, we still had to wait for 30-40 minutes before our food was served.

Three dish + one bowl of rice $57

Excellent Chinese food!!

First time here. Ordered takeout. Food tasted good but the beef chow fun was too saucy imo. Pleasantly surprised to see the atmosphere welcoming and decently large considering the restaurant didn’t look that big from the outside and was at the corner of the plaza. Would come back again to try other items on the menu.

Food is good. Can’t complain. Friendly service.we eat here twice a week.

I ordered mango beef. Disappointed. The chef cannot handle even basic cooking. Beef needs to be sliced cross-grained and be cut into larger pieces. It ends up like eating rubber bands.

Fresh, Authentic & Delicious! Three key words to our experience/first time dining at Mandarin House. The Spicy Chicken House Special ?️ was not a disappointment at all and don’t get me started on the chicken chow mein and shrimp fried rice, a must try! Will definitely be making my way back when my Chinese food cravings kicks in!

The young man at the register was not a happy person and seemed like an other place would have been better than this job.
The orange chicken was so tough and dry. Not even the sauce helped it to be edible.
The vegetable fried rice was so salty I couldn’t add soy sauce to help with the dryness.
The green beans were so greasy, you could almost not taste of vegetable itself.

Really bad food. It somehow managed to be both bland and too salty at the same time. The fried rice was completely white with no seasoning. The green beans were far too greasy and tasted old. Will not be back. Restaurant had a sad atmosphere and the staff clearly did not want to be there.
