The food is good and very fresh, and the service is great; I come here to eat every day.

I'm giving this restaurant 2 stars, not because of the food or cleanliness of the restaurant. I've been coming here for several years, mostly on Saturday evening. There are very few people dining. I like the quietness while I dine. The food is excellent, no complaints, you get plenty to eat. My gf usually brings some home. My pet peeve is, the hostess, waitresses are so unfriendly! They couldn't smile at a joke. They barely understand English. They never come and check on us. Tonight I ran out of beverage, no refill. We were not done eating when the waitress brought the check. Didn't ask if we wanted dessert or anything else. At checkout, wasn't asked how was everything. So to sum this up, good food, plenty of it but the service sucks. read more

Have not been here in 6+ years. If you're not looking for the best Chinese food you've ever had, you're in the right place. The buffet food was cold (12:15 pm). The General Tsao's and sesame chicken were floating in watery juice - not thick and sticky - so you know the breading will be very soggy. Stick to the basics. The chicken wings were plain but good. The "fried rice" is not fried. If you need a quick, cheap, bland, low-quality lunch this is it. And the employees are not nice. There's that. read more

It's been quite a while since coming back to Mandarin Garden. The food was excellent 15 years ago....but things have changed over time. I hate to report that the food made me ill...but the food made me sick after consuming their pork egg fu yung. I could not only taste rancid oil, but I could feel it with every bite as the four omelette patties were all oily...a very thin oil, but still it was nauseating. The top patties looked fair...but they covered up the bottom patties which were burned. Burnt eggs also added to why I got ill....mixing taste and textures. The appetizers of crab triangles; egg rolls and steamed dumpling were so much less than expected from this restaurant.....so much less than the former quality and care for customers or their health. Chinese food is a delicacy when done with a bit of care. I think those days for Mandarin Garden is over. For the price....plenty of portion size, but the food was basically inedible. read more

This was the worst Chinese food we have ever had. The cashew chicken was swimming in a watery oily sauce. Very little meat or cashews. The sesame chicken was a soggy mushy mess. The only positive thing I can say is that the egg rolls were good. This was a top quality restaurant but in the last 15 years it has gone from good to terrible. We will not be ordering from here again. ont waste your money. read more

I don't know why I keep expecting to find good "Chinese Food" down south because I keep getting disappointed. What I will say is that the wings were good and if nothing else, I would go back for that. But everything else was a disappointment. This was my second time trying this restaurant and I will have to find another to try next time. I got their appetizer sampler and their shrimp and broccoli with fried rice. They charge extra for anything other than plain fried rice or white rice. I think sometimes I may be too picky but I like good food so don't know what else to say. The broccoli was very al dente which can be good if you like that. Shrimp was cooked fine and a good portion but sauce it was in was very average. I've had better. Also not a fan of the water chestnuts and bamboo they add in. As for the sampler, it came with fried shrimp, way way way too much breading; potstickers, average; egg rolls, didn't think I could dislike eggrolls but these just didn't do it for me; crab angles, a bit too much cream cheese; and some kind of beef, which didn't look appetizing but actually had a decent flavor. I ordered pickup and the service was nice but probably would not return. read more

My son and I went to the buffet at 1pm. There were no options and I asked were they going to put out more food. I was told they were putting food out. By 1:30 there was still no fresh food. By 1:40 they threw a few wings and shrimp out. I haven't been to the buffet in awhile and this was the worst experience ever. read more

This restaurant is in Conyers Ga., not far from where I live. I've driven past the place many times over the years and today was my first visit. Service was good. The place was clean, and well kept. Food was typical Chinese fare. Not bad at all. Nothing exciting, but large portions. Nothing was sizzling hot, including the rice in our "Sizzling Rice" soup. Our waitress seemed uninspired. Not exactly friendly. On the upside, the prices were relatively low. My wife liked the restaurant more than I. read more

Food is horrible. dining room unkempt, food on the floor, run down. entrance with trash and leaves and dirt all over the floor. buffet is quite iffy. rice was hard and crunchy. hardly anything on buffet. service is appalling. one girl working dining room. unfriendly, never checked on us. wont be back. read more

Amazing food every time! They are a family run spot that is always fast and delicious!

No accountability terrible service. Just ordered two large wonton soups from Mandarin Garden on highway 138. Indicated shellfish allergies during my order. Got home and shrimp were in both soups. Called and explained the mistake and said I would be bringing back. Once there I had to ask for a refund as it was not offered and asked for my order to be remade correctly. The male owner laughed and said he would not remake unless I paid for both orders. I will never give this place my money again and will only spend where my money is respected. Shellfish allergies is nothing to play with an as a restaurant owner when such a deadly error was made at MINIMUM i should not have to pay for my order to be corrected. I came in calm and had to ask to be compensated for their mistake. Horrible customer service for what could have been a grave mistake. Just sharing my experience. Male not shown in photo as he walked off to the back after laughing. read more

Great buffet. Get there early and enjoy the wide variety of options available. Yummy and good. Nice staff, clean and reasonable.

While shopping at nearby stores, we decided to give Mandarin Garden a shot.  We walked in, clueless about the place, and got a friendly greeting. After reviewing the take-out menu, we settled on two orders of Sesame Chicken--one with fried rice and the other with white rice. The person taking our order mentioned that the food would be ready in 10-15 minutes. Setting a timer on my phone, we walked to another nearby store and returned right on time. As promised, the food was ready when we arrived. We packed everything up and headed home.  The food itself turned out to be good, though, in my opinion, it tasted more like Sweet and Sour Chicken than Sesame Chicken. One positive note was that the chicken actually tasted like real chunks of chicken breast and wasn't drowned in breading. Overall, the food and service were good.  3.5 read more

Food is always good. Service has been very slow lately. Not enough people to handle current customers. Prices keep going up read more

Had buffet. The food was room temperature and not tasty. Still paid for it but ordered a to go order. Was not offered any adjustment when I told the waiter that it wasn't to my pleasure. Like the seafood noodle soup but the buffet leaves much to be desired. If a good or bad rating is requested, read more

Haven't eaten here in 20 years only because we moved farther away. We did take out a couple of nights ago and I remembered why we loved this place. The food was outstanding and fresh. I recommend this to anyone looking for good Asian food read more

I have been looking for an authentic Mandarin restaurant for a long time and was in search of authentic Almond Fried Chicken. The food was excellent. I took my parents and we all enjoyed our meals. I would recommend this place to those looking for an actual Mandarin meal. read more

The food and service is fantastic. It is one of my top choices to go to alone or with my family. I would recommend going when they have the buffet. read more

The food is inconsistently good. Depending on the day and time is what I have come to discover when dining in or taking out. Back in the days this was my favorite but times have differently changed and so has the food sadly. read more

First of all, the food is decent, but they never cook the green beans enough and they are always hard! The staff are the rudest of and staff around! They always act like they don't want you there and they act like if you ask for anything that it puts them out! They really need to approve their attitudes and be more professional in this place! read more

The food was disappointing. I purchased the chicken lo-mein and it had no flavor. The Mongolian beef, the beef was tough and dry and I don't know why they had those crispy white noodles on the bottom and about 7 pieces of meat read more

Absolute garbage. We got food from Uber Eats - which has inflated reviews btw - and the Mongolian Beef was a gelatinous, salty and yet also underseasoned and bland thing of goo. The chicken broccoli was also bland, cold, and gross. The lo mein was trash, the crab rangoons was trash. We ate none of it. All ended up trashed and now disputing with my credit card because Uber Eats sucks on the refund. I'd give it less than one star if I could. read more

This is mine and my sister's favorite Chinese spot. Many people from local businesses come for the lunch buffet, so it can be busy then. That's what me and my sister usually do is a lunch buffet and it may not be a huge one but all of the food is extremely good. The place is clean. The staff is friendly, and just overall has a comfortable feel read more

Good family atmosphere. Food is good. I've eaten there since 1997. The service is good too. I recommend it to everyone

This is one of my two go-to places for Chinese in Conyers. There are qualities of this place that keep my patronage, the key one being consistency. Food is always hot, ready, and flavorful. (Compared to other places in Conyers). I see all of the not so good reviews, and yes, while they aren't perfect .. their shortcomings still outperform their competitors. I recommend the hot and sour soup and the Singapore rice noodles. If your in the mood for Chinese, give them a chance. And if they've done you wrong before, try them one more time. Also this location uses little to No msg which is great. Another reason why I enjoy this location. Anytime you go to ANY Chinese or restaurant of This sort, request that no MSG be used. *personal choice * MSG enhances the savory, meaty umami(tasty) flavor of foods. MSG is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, an amino acid found in your body and most foods. read more

We have been coming here, as a family for many years. We had not been in a while. We live in Decatur. We wanted some first class Chinese food and we knew where to go. It did not disappoint. Everything was delicious! We had the meal for four persons that included Sizzling Rice soup, Egg Rolls and Crab Angles, Garlic Chicken, Moo Shu Pork, Mongolian Beef and Kung Pao Shrimp. Great service, great atmosphere, and delicious food. We can't wait to go again! read more

Always my favorite quick mandarin cuisine. The food is always good being that I always get the same choices - chicken egg fu young or chicken and veggies w/ chicken corn soup. read more

We have been getting take out because there was no dining in yet. Our family was out from California and we were coming home from the Atlanta Aquarium, we were all hungry. What a surprise that they were open for dining in. The interior was super pretty! There was 8 of us so we had a big round table with a huge lazy Susan in the middle for family style. We all picked a dish we loved and ordered it. We had chicken low mein, fried rice, spicy chicken, sweet and sour shrimp, and so much more. Everyone was so pleased! We had grandkids, 7 and 10, to my 87 year old mom and the rest between. No complaints! All the veggies were fresh, hot food, amazing service. Can't wait to go again read more

So my husband grew up near here and has raved about this being his favorite Chinese place in the area. He brought me here today and already after getting my egg drop soup, I see why he loves this place. Wouldn't think this little place where it's located would be this good, but it is. We are not having the buffet, we are ordering from the menu and we are ordering way more than we need just to take some back home for my husband since we love 3.5 hours away. The egg drop soup is the best I have ever had, from anywhere. We also got the Flaming App Combo and it was on point. We also had 3 entrees, Moogooguypan, Chicken Rice Noodle and Beef and Broccoli with white and fried rice sides. All of it was so good. I highly recommend this little place. read more

I ordered orange chicken and chicken fried rice plus shrimp Lo mein I was kind of embarrass for them, I have never had chinese this bad in decades. The orange chicken was basically batter dip chicken with some type of sauce with pineapple and cherries I think they forgot it is called orange chicken, as for the shrimp lo mein I guess the shrimp were playing hide and seek because it was mostly lo mein noodle and vegatables. As for taste everything was bland. I hope this was just a off night for them But I know I wont be taking any chances again at this restaraunt. read more

PLEASE DON'T EAT HERE! THEY HAVE BUGS IN THEIR FOOD. This was my 1st time trying this restaurant & I am highly disappointed. They overcharged for the food. It was 12 noon & she charged for dinner. We didn't get all our food at 1st. She wanted to argue but she was totally wrong in this case. Get home to eat & the food and a bug was in it. Thank God I wasn't eating fast & not paying attention. It's enough going on out here with Covid now there's nasty, disgusting bugs in the food. DEAR OWNER, WE ARE GOING THROUGH ENOUGH! read more

Mandarin Garden - BUG IN THEIR FOOD - Chinese Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

I went two days in a row because I enjoyed the pork lo mein - spicy. It was good. A little over priced though at $9.95. Today I got the same and friend ordered Mongolian beef. I've only ever had sweet Mongolian beef since moving here. Is this a Georgia thing? Strange, but edible, after all, I locd candy. Service was fine, as we were the only ones in the restaurant. Approximately 2:45pm. Earlier in the day they offer a buffet. I'm not into buffets, generally so I can't comment. I will say that the two dishes I've eaten, pork lo mein and Mongolian beef were good. read more

I wanted some Chinese food but my go to place was closed so I did a quick search and found this place. This is during quarantine time so my order was to go. I ordered Mongolian beef from the lunch menu and at first site it didn't look appetizing. The rice is pretty bland, it had a couple of vegetables at the bottom but just ok. The egg roll is really small, like two bite egg roll small. The beef is tender and flavorful but it didn't have enough sauce. This place wasn't anything to tell anyone about. read more

I used to eat here all the time, but my past two experiences were horrible. The last time I ate here they added on their own $5 tip to the check, though they've never done it in the past so I know what extra charges to expect. I tried to brush that experience off, thinking maybe it was a mistake, but today I found a worm in my vegetable tofu dish. I told the waiter about it, who showed the manager. She told me it was "from the corn" and "not a bug" even though it clearly is. They didn't even comp my meal or at least the dish. I'm never coming back here again. There are way better places to spend your money. read more

Mandarin Garden - Worm found in vegetable tofu dish - Chinese Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

I have been a customer for many, many years and in the last few years I have mainly done delivery or take-out. I have favorites we order all the time. We began plant based eating and the Lo Han Chai (I prefer white sauce, special request - otherwise I think it is generally brown sauce). It is outstanding. I request brown rice and it's healthy and delicious! My weakness is spring roll (not as healthy) but, oh, well! My kids have grown up eating a variety of cuisines and it says something when Mandarin Gardens Egg Foo Yong (vegetable of course) is "comfort food". The takeout window lacks a great deal on friendliness but it is what it is. read more

We ordered chicken fried rice, chicken lo mein, and braised chicken wings. The fried rice and lo mein were relatively bland in taste. In addition, the lo mein noodles had an odd aftertaste. I cannot in good conscience rate this restaurant beyond poor based on my experience. I really don't like writing poor reviews. Thank you! read more

After reading all the good reviews about this place I decided to get some lunch for my wife and myself today. Big mistake the food is horrible, I got the general tso chicken combo, and my wife got kong po chicken combo. The rice was plain and nasty soy sauce couldn't help it, the chicken one or two old reheated chicken, the egg rolls taste like straight grease. Some of the peppers in my wife's food was rotten. Being from New York city where you can go anywhere and get great chinese food this place is not for me. read more
