Customer Reviews
One of the best Chinese spots in the Bay! Always a go to when in the mood for Chinese & on the southside. I’ve never had anything here I didn’t like! Service is always so nice! Love coming here!! The portions are huge & served family style.
Lunch specials are becoming harder and harder to find so when you find a place that not only has a lunch special but has it available 7 days a week (excluding holidays), it is worth a highlight! Mandarin Gourmet delivers with a 4 course lunch special that has a variety of entrée options. Entrées are served family style so the table can easily share dishes. The food comes quickly and the seating is comfortable (choice of booths or tables). The first course are some fried dough with a sweet red dipping sauce. Chinese chicken salad with a peanut dressing is usually served at the same time, followed by a hot and sour soup. Finally the entrée is served with a choice of steamed or fried rice. A fortune cookie rounds off the meal. On this visit, we had the Garlic Eggplant, Tangerine Beef and Honey Walnut Prawns. All were great!
The place is a dungeon, no windows. This place feels like a bank vault that was converted to a restaurant. We used to go to their Cupertino location, it was better, but closed now. The food items were a hit or a miss. The menu here is also a hit or miss, only the kung pao chicken and a few other dishes are ok, other dishes lack flavor and contain way too many vegetables in a meat dish, eg: Hunan chicken. Worst is the waiter, a chubby guy, there are 2 waiters here, the other guy is very friendly and cordial. The chubby one is always angry and has a chip on his shoulder, maybe he is over worked but that is not an excuse to be unprofessional to customers. He never smiles, in our last visit, he was rude and appeared angry. Avoid this place and go elsewhere for a better ambience and culinary experience. I hope this place shuts down too, it is mostly empty anyway. The lunch special is the only reason people go here. If the owners are reading this, fix your staff's attitude and get that waiter I mentioned some training on communication and customer service. Useless place.
The waiter was sooooo rude. He threw the pen in front of me to sign!!! He was so inpatient and rejected to customize my food. He was so bad tempered!! The food was awful but if they were nice I would not have left this review.
Food was great, came out quick. Service after we got our food was horrible, they never came back to check on us, no refills or napkins. Service was definitely given to the ones chosen, and we were one of the tables that ordered the most food there and still weren't given us any service.
