Mandarin Restaurant is an all-you-can-eat Chinese and Canadian food buffet that offers a wide variety of options to cater to everyone's tastes. The buffet features four main stations: a salad bar with ingredients to create your own salad or pre-made options like macaroni or potato salad, a hot station with traditional Chinese dishes like fried rice, sweet and sour chicken balls, and lemon chicken, as well as American/Canadian options like meatballs, French fries, and baked salmon. The sushi and grill station offers different types of sushi and grilled meats, while the carving station features prime rib with all the fixings, including mashed potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, and au jus. The dessert area boasts a large selection of pies, cakes, puddings, fresh fruit, and ice cream with toppings.
Many guests appreciate the excellent service, with staff like Mia and Ashish providing attentive care. The owner creates a welcoming atmosphere that makes visitors feel comfortable. Customers often enjoy the variety and freshness of the food, along with friendly staff and thoughtful touches like hand towels and water refills. The restaurant is popular for special occasions, such as a 60th Anniversary, where staff members are praised for their friendliness and attentiveness. While the food quality is generally superb, some vegetable dishes may lack flavor occasionally. Pricing varies based on the time of day and day of the week, and reservations are recommended for dinner or weekend visits, as it can get busy. The free birthday meal policy requires a group of four or more adults, which some find frustrating, but overall, many guests continue to love visiting Mandarin Restaurant for its great food and welcoming environment.
