We love the food from Mandarin and the service from Ling Ling, the woman who works at the front. It’s been our go to place for Chinese food for quite some time. Consistently delicious and usually fast for takeout. Highly recommend! We love the lo mein, Orange chicken, eggplant tofu, mapo tofu, egg rolls, and beef with broccoli.

Tried to call to cancel my order since they were closed. They did not let me speak. Order number 132920070. Please refund me….

Case update: I reached out to Menufy.com and got some help. Hopefully for my money back. Woman on the phone from the restaurant was super rude not letting me speak or be heard to ask for a refund or alternatively an order but for Wednesday night when they would be reopened.

Was quick to hang up too, did not get to speak to her at all. Would not recommend spending money here unless it is cash and you hand it to the cook in person.

Do not order delivery from this restaurant. The delivery driver will not give you your food unless you pay him extra cash as a tip beyond what was paid online.

Ordered shrimp fried rice and crispy chicken wings. No complaints. Everything was cooked and seasoned well. Customer service was attentive, quick, and efficient.

This place is just incredible. Exactly what I’ve been searching for in LA for years now. Just some good, MSG-filled Chinese food. It tastes exactly how you want it to taste. It’s not 5-star cuisine, but it tastes like your childhood when you were able to convince your mom to get Chinese takeout on a random Thursday because she had a long day and didn’t want to cook. The portions are big, the prices are incredible, the quality is what it is at that price (my chicken lo mein didn’t have much chicken which was too bad).

Highly recommend this beautiful hole-in-the-wall Chinese takeout spot that will fill every single one of your “I need Chinese food right now” cravings.

As others have said, takeout only.

awesome food, nice clean shrimp in my fried rice w extra egg. they’re never open anymore though in the middle of the day— chronically understaffed? really unfortunate

The food here is great! The lunch special is a deal and you get a good amount of food. It's cooked fresh to order so nothing is dried or soggy.

Its only a pick up place. Cannot dine in. The first time I ordered food (rice and lowmein, the food was delicious. I could not wait to go eat again! But then the second time when I bought more food to share with my fam.. it absolutely sucked. So maybe its a hit or miss place ??‍♀️

This place doesn't look like much, but this hole in the wall is my go-to when it comes to pineapple & shrimp fried rice, and the other dishes never disappoint. It's a great little place. The only thing, it's take out only, unfortunately. Besides that, there s nice women to take your order or call and pick up. Oh, and they hook it up pretty well for the price. Enjoy

Looking at the menu, I first thought it was a real gourmet Chinese food restaurant.
Once I got the food and start making my plate, I realize it looked more like dollar Chinese food. The food tastes more like Chinese food I will find in a shopping center. And it tastes like it was old and not fresh.
This is not Chinese food like PF chain, Wolcano or any other high in chinese food That's out there. Would I go back? I will have to say BIG NO!!!.

Great tasting food, and reasonable price. They don't over cook the vegetables in their entres so the have a bit of crunch
