I have been eating here for many years. Ive ordered take out just as much as dining in. They always have exceptional food. The owners and staff are kind and attentive. I am always greeted when I come and Im seated immediately. To this day I have not had a bad experience here. Ive heard others complaints and concerns but I have never experienced bad service or long wait time for food. One time, many years ago my mom complained that the lo mein was too oily, but we addressed the concerns with the staff and they fixed it immediately. Now whenever we order lo mein for her we simply ask for it to be not so oily. All you have to do is ask and they will accommodate. Everyone has a preference, but complaining about the problem without finding a solution first is just wasting time and energy. Ive had family members complain that the place does not look nice, but I think its a silly complaint. They have tables, chairs, clean utensils and plates, and always fresh and delicious food. The lunch buffet is worth it, and the food in the buffet is always fresh. Ive had family complain about the price and I think this is silly as well. If you want cheap food, go to a cheap halal Chinese restaurant. I dont mind paying a dollar or two extra for exceptional quality Chinese food, in a clean restaurant, with friendly and attentive staff. The cheap places will give you cheap food, cheap service, and a cheap experience. Ill keep coming back as long as Mandarin stays open.

Tony the MOTHA EFFN TIGER would yell out, " THEYRE GRRREAT" and KOOL-AID man and his gigantic pitcher filled head would bust through the walls screaming, " OHH YEEAAH" after taking a bite of this spicy, saucy, simmering deliciousness they call HALAL. Now you may be thinking, this is a little over the top, but let me just tell you something. There are EIGHT Chinese restaurants within less than a mile from this ONE OF A KIND restaurant. 8!?!?! "How do they survive, and how are they able to stay in business?" you may ponder in you tiny little bird brain. I got one word for you....PORTIONS!!!! DEAR GOD OLE MIGHTY, PORTIONS are MASSIVE!!! Are you a single mother of 12 wonderful children from 8 separate fathers refusing to pay child support and struggling to cook day in and day out to feed these little birds the necessary nutrients in order to grow into the Nephilim of the 21st century?!?! WORRY NO MORE... this is the PALACE for you! Your order comes with a MASSIVE portions of either WHITE OR FRIED rice and your choice of necessary condiments to fill you and your smorgasbord of offsprings dietary needs. BON APPETITE !!!

Noodles were okay but very oily. Started coughing after eating. The fried rice was awful. Beef was very dry. Also, it was very brown like there was too much sauce used. Had to waste an entire meal. Hopefully my brother can eat the leftovers tomorrow : Staff was ridiculous. As soon as I walked in they were sitting around laughing obnoxiously, and there were zero customers. We should have noted that no customers at 830pm (dinner time) means the food is probably bad. Only the staff was sitting around and joking. They only got up after our order was made and we could hear them singing in the kitchen. Very unprofessional and you could tell they do not take their jobs seriously by the quality of their food. Owner should fire them all.

I came here with a group of 8 on a Saturday night, it wasnt busy at all so we were seated rather quickly. Overall, I really liked this place and would come back again, however there were a few things that I did not like. First, the restaurant was a little dirty, even though they cleaned our table it still felt sticky. Second, I wish our waitress would have told us that we were ordering too much food because we didnt realize how huge the portion sizes were. Id recommend the General Tsos, sweet and sour chicken and hot and sour soup. The spicy chicken wings didnt have any flavor,

If I could give a half star I would. Never coming back here tonight after the most horrific customer service experience I have ever witnessed. The owner was extremely rude to me and my family and would not correct the mistakes on the receipt. They would not take accountability for heir mistakes and the owner yelled at us to leave and never come back. I am shocked, appalled, and astounded. Never coming back here if we are treated like this. Terrible! Weve been coming for years. Never again.

Before talk about food lets talk about service, there was lady she could be the manager or the owner! Who is very very rode and bad service. She sounded like she was giving us favor by providing the food. The food was very bad and when i mentioned that to her(the persons who feels she is giving us favor) said, "This is how it is,stop eating this food and order something else"!!!!!! Just to let you know I always go to this place only for that specific dish and I know how it tastes.

My immediate and extended family have been coming here practically on a monthly basis since this restaurant opened. They know us as regular customers. There was an error with an appetizer on the bill so we tried correcting it. The owner came out, called us petty, and told us to never come back. I am appalled. It was a $6 issue on a $200 bill. I will never go back and you shouldnt either.

The food is good, but the automatic gratuity and customer service is horrific. My baby needed milk for her feeder, and they charged $2. I was charged a $4 tip for a $28 bill. Automatic gratuities are not only stupid, but they also disincentivize waiters from behaving on their best. This place has many many many issues - the only good thing going for them is their food.

I had horrible experience in this place. I ordered some food when I took home I found out roach in the food I called the restaurants and let them know what happened but seemed they dont care any more customers. I been going this restaurant since it opened. It used to be good or ok but lately it just terrible and I heard same things all my friends. Never go back.

Dirty, cleaning food to be served right in the eating area. Work area exposed to public. Processing food right on table.Ordered won ton soup and got fried frozen box type wontons in soup. Soup was only warm. Service was sub par. Cant believe this place has a rating of 4.

Service was good but place is very dirty and not decent looking. Also food was not all that considering the prices. I did like the hot and sour soup though.

Its alright halal Chinese food, but they need to improve on making the atmosphere of their restaurant more clean and sanitary.
