This place is a joke. The food is terrible. The inside of the restaurant is filthy. The service is a joke. Avoid it at all cost. It's sad when Panda Express is a better option. read more

Mandarin Garden was our favorite restaurant in California, but the same food choices at the Mandarin Garden in Logan were awful. The tiny bits of meat were so encrusted with a glob of way overcooked batter as to be unrecognizable as food. Plus, the building itself has been maintenance deferred for a long time. read more

Ordered #2 tiny spicy chicken with ham fried rice & low mein with 1 shrimp & hot & sour soup Tiny spicy was great Low mein was great Rice was made last week (dry) Hot & sour soup was great Shrimp was so dried out I tossed it in the trash . I think they've sold the restaurant to other than Asian people and the quality of the food has really gone down hill . Oh it was a dinner take out order .... lunch take outs have been really good. Place kinda sucks for a well known restaurant..... You know low grade DOG FOOD Do yourself a favor and eat elsewhere read more

I have been going here since I was a little girl with my family. Their sweet and sour soup is to die for and their tiny spicy is a must have each time. read more

Overall it's a decent place to stop in for a lunch special. For just $7 you get an entree fried rice, egg roll, and a soup. The service is quick with the food, but the waiting service is very slow. It took a while for our drinks to be filled. The ambiance is ok, inside a lot of plants and Asian decor everywhere. Whenever my wife and I go we get the Tiny Spicy Chicken, which tastes like a hot sesame chicken. The chicken is what you normally get from any other Chinese place, over breaded and a tiny piece of over cooked chicken jerky in the middle. The flavor is quite good however and the sides make up for it. They have really light and fluffy fried rice, and delicious soup with the meal (try the hot and sour soup). I do not recommend the wontons, they are just fried wonton wrappers without filling. It made for a very greasy and gross appetizer. I definitely will not be ordering that again. If you are Logan and want to try a decent Chinese food place I recommend coming here. If you claim to really like authentic Chinese food then this isn't the place for you. read more

Pretty good food .Mongolian beef not a lot of meat but flavor was ok .. got chicken it was delish . Over all a good experience.. egg rolls no meat . read more

I had placed a pick up order with 3 combo meals, two with rice and one with ONLY "noodles" (lo mein) which I repeated multiple times because my boyfriend does not like rice. When he came home he opened up his food to find half chow mein & half fried rice. He quickly went back to the restaurant and asked if he could get only noodles like we ordered. The lady working up front was very rude. Didn't believe him, and not once did she apologize. She charged my card $1.50 again for the cost of the noodles. When he got back there was now half rice, and half noodles even though i had now paid twice for ONLY noodles. It was fine considering we didn't want to go back again, up until while he got to the bottom and found the remains of the chow mein underneath everything. It was super frustrating just because it felt like they didn't care at all. But on a positive note their food is very good. Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend this restaurant if you're looking for great or even good customer service. As much as I love the food, dealing with the workers isn't worth it. read more

Mandarin Garden - Chinese Near Me - Logan, Utah

It's the best Chinese food in Logan and I don't think much has changed in over two decades. The menu doesn't have many ingredients but they combine them in endless variety. Typical of similar such restaurants. Food arrives quickly, drink refills are there before you know you need one. Hot and sour soup is great. Tip: ask for the tiny spicy chicken to be served with the sauce (ask for extra spicy) on the side. That way the chicken stays crispy (and leftovers are pretty decent that way). read more

Mandarin Used to be such an amazing option for Chinese food. I have no idea when they switched management but who took over made this beautiful restaurant a disaster. Food is old, and reheated and you can tell by the look of the food. The employees a disaster. I see no reason to ignore phone calls for takeout orders if you only have 2-3 tables taken. I will now rather travel out of town for chinese. read more

Mandarin Garden is delicious!! I crave their Tiny Spicy Chicken. I live 2 hrs away and drive to Logan just for their food. Today wasn't any different. I drove up to Logan for a quick trip and stopped by and grabbed some Tiny Spicy to go. I'll be back sooner than later for some more. read more

Rude service. I literally asked for hot sauce and the girl at the front desk gave me an ugly face and sarcastically told me to ask my waiter. Then smirked at her coworker and reluctantly gave me soy sauce instead of hot sauce. Im not even from this area. Disappointed. Nothing further to say. read more

My wife and I are big Mandarin Garden fans. However, we got the family dinner with the tiny spicy chicken and fried rice today and it smelled AND tasted like cigarettes. Im not sure what happened or what is going on in the kitchen but we couldn't finish half of the meal because of this. If you're gonna smoke, that's fine, just don't make the food smoke too. read more

My husband and I decided to order the beef and broccoli and the vegetable dish. Both dishes were very good. They even cooked the vegetables longer for my husband who cannot eat them unless they are cooked until very tender. My dish was flavorful, the meat tender, and the broccoli cooked perfectly. We had enough food leftover for our dinner. read more

Just moved to Logan and wanted to try a new Chinese spot so we went here. The server gave us a hard time for wanting a child seat and made us switch tables in order to let our baby have a seat, which took me off guard to start. We ordered two lunch specials and the portions were extremely small. They gave about 75% vegetables to 25% chicken, which is supposed to be the main entree. The server sat at the table directly next to us, leaving no privacy. Not impressed with the food or the service at all. read more

This review is a combo of my last two experiences at Mandarin Garden, which I used to quite enjoy. The service, at least during dinner time, has become absolutely unacceptable. During my last experience, I waited up front to be seated for at least three minutes. There were two tables in the restaurant. I could hear staff laughing around the corner. One young man waiter peaked his head around and saw me, but then went back behind the corner. In general, I take this as a sign that a restaurant doesn't want my business. The time previous, the restaurant was packed, but it seemed there was only one person -- not one waitress, one host, one busboy -- one person doing all the work. She was working her butt off but had no help. Meanwhile, a group dining in the rear of the restaurant -- I assume either employees or family of owners -- stood with the back door open for a few minutes, making the place freeze. Food is fine. Service has gone downhill. Will try again in a few months. Hopefully they get it together. read more

I really want to like this place. It's a local staple and has been here probably longer than I've been alive - but I can assure you it probably hasn't been cleaned in about that long either. The bathrooms are terrifying and smell horrendous. I had to take my toddler in there twice during our meal tonight and it absolutely killed my appetite. After the first trip, I got to looking at nearly every other surface in that establishment and the grime is deep. I figure if this is what they present, the behind-the-scenes probably isn't much better. Sorry to say I will not be back. I can throw $20 in the garbage and eat a TV dinner. read more

My wife and I ate here some time back, and will more than likely be our last time. We both got sick after eating their food, and it wasn't even that good. The quality of the food really needs work. The only thing they have going for them is that their staff is pleasant. read more

Mandarin Garden has the best authentic Chinese food in the valley! While Panda Express is very similar, the ambiance is nice and the overall feel of the restaurant is comfortable. The staff is always on top of water refills and makes sure that you're having a good time. To start, I always have an egg roll that is always fresh out of the oven. For the entree the cashew nut and tiny spicy chicken are my favorite dishes because of their excellent flavor and tenderness. The tiny spicy chicken isn't actually that spicy and is fairly comparable to Blue Bird chicken. The rice compliments the entrees especially well and is sticky enough to be eaten with chopsticks. At the end of the meal you are brought a fortune cookie and can take whatever food is left home in a to-go box. It is a wonderful restaurant and is absolutely satisfying. The food is always freshly made and does not have the greasy fast-food feel that Panda Express has. -Addison read more

This is my wife's favorite place to eat. The staff are very friendly and always helpful and let us substitute things even if the menu says no substitutions. I think the food is okay, nothing to brag about but the price is pretty good for what you get. They have punch cards and you get one punch every ten dollars so we fill them up pretty quick. Sadly you can't use them on certain days but the punch cards say nothing about that on them. read more

I came to Mandarin Garden last night with a friend. It was pretty quiet and we were seated immediately. The server was friendly and was quick to bring us drinks. However, our order came out less than five minutes after we placed it, meaning that our food was either microwaved or had been sitting in a warmer in the back, and was definitely not fresh. We ordered crab rangoon, Mongolian beef, and orange chicken. The rangoon was okay, the beef was okay, and the chicken was good. There was actual charred orange rind in the chicken, which was interesting. They serve jasmine tea at Mandarin Garden, and I really liked it. I'm not often in the mood for Chinese, and given that we were served old food, I'm not in a very big hurry to return to Mandarin Garden. read more

Everybody has a friend who will show up at a rib joint and order pasta. That is akin to showing up at Mandarin Garden and not getting the Tiny Spicy Chicken. I have had the dish at several different restaurants, but these guys have perfected it! Great spice, tons of chicken and crispy! Most places serve it more on the soggy side. We also had the sweet n sour chicken, which was also very crispy and delicious. The house special lo mein is excellent. Service was great, and very quick. We will definitely be back! read more

I enjoy their extremely rich tiny spicy chicken and kung bo shrimp especially, and their hot and sour soup is spot on. But I do not care for their outdated dining room and even worse, their chicken made me sick last visit. I've hesitated to eat here ever since. read more

Mandarin Garden - sweet and sour pork - Chinese Near Me - Logan, Utah

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. The lunch prices were great, the food not so much. The vegetables were canned, our cups looked dirty, they put a lemon in our water that most likely hadn't been washed. Our wontons were very dry and very crunchy all the food was Very sweet, and very oily. If you want cheap Chinese food this place is for you. We had 2 waiters asking us the same questions. We probably won't go there again. Once was enough. read more

TERRIBLE REPULSIVE INEXPLICABLY GREASY SOGGY FOOD. Poor customer service. After two times dining here, never ever again. This second time was only because Formosa was unexpectedly closed, next time Formosa is closed for a day I'll be going to Panda Express or simply not having chinese food. I will never subject myself to this barf ever again. read more

I'm not sure why people love this place. I decided to try it after reading the good reviews. I ordered Combination B with the tiny spicy chicken, which several people raved about; the sauce was good, but the chicken was really dry. The ham fried rice was enjoyable, but the chicken lo mien was slimy and salty. I'm really disappointed. I was hoping I'd found my go-to Chinese place. read more

Food tasted a week old tbh. Didn't like the attitude of one of the servers. They kept staring at me. Also the owner is a creep

This is like the only authentic Chinese to go around here but I wasn't super impressed. My meal (The lo-me in) was WAY over cooked....but the Bo-Bo appetizer was freaking amazing! I would ONLY go back for the appetizer!!!! read more

Mandarin Garden - BO-BO appetizer !! AMAZING !! - Chinese Near Me - Logan, Utah

Mandarin is the best. You can't beat their lunch specials. An entree, egg roll or wontons, fried rice, and your choice of soup all under $7 is incredible value. Tiny Spicy Chicken is their money maker. I've never had a dish like it at any other Chinese restaurant I've been to. It's the best Chinese dish I've had. My wife loves their Ham Lo Mein, my parents love their shrimp dishes, but if you're going to eat at Mandarin you've gotta try the Tiny Spicy Chicken. read more

We are in Logan for the first time and after traveling, our family of 6 was in the mood for Chinese food and saw this restaurant the right away. After seeing 4 stars on Google, thought we would try it. We came in about 3:15pm and were pleasantly surprised that the lunch menu went until 3:30pm. Meals were in the $6.50-7.50 range and comes with ham fried rice, a small egg roll or wonton and choice of 3 different soups or salad for $0.50 extra. Several of us ordered the tiny spicy chicken based on review recommendations and it did not disappoint. Large serving meant we all took home leftovers. Kids ordered chicken and pork lo mein and liked it. Fried dumplings also went over well. Service was really fast. Only downside of the visit was the women's restroom which needs some handyman work (stall latch issue and tile trim). Other than that, excellent food, service and especially price. Cost us less than fast food and was much better food. read more

Went there for the very first time this week. Ordered their "Sesame chicken". The food came in very less time. Kudos to them on that!! But the food was okay. The vegetables (broccoli, baby corn, etc.) had some kinda smell. I can tell it was not fresh; maybe the chicken was but the veggies weren't. I usually don't waste my food even if I don't like it. I just don't go to the place next time. :) My biggest shock came when the server gave me the check, after I asked. I put down my credit card and waited, maybe more than 10 minutes. Then I turned my head around and bam!! she is having her own dinner at a nearby table. Haha... I mean, I understand my hard-working server also needs to feed herself. But at least run my credit card so I can sign and get the hell outta there, right? Or, reassign the task to one of your peers so they can continue. I mean why should I wait for you to get done with your dinner before getting my card swiped? That was ridiculous. I then walked over to the counter, paid the cashier, and left. Didn't tip much, given the circumstances, of course!! Maybe I'll go back one more time, after the pain alleviates in about a few months to give it another try. But I'm not very hopeful. Thanks for reading. read more

Great food. Love the Tiny Spicy Chicken! Try to avoid busy times as there is always a big line and wait. But it's usually worth it!

Across from our hotel, we zipped over for dinner. Quick glance at the menu before we sat, we gave the approval at the vegetarian options. And our server let us know that there's plenty of veggie options, even some spring rolls he had rolled himself. Thankfully the rice was free refills, as well as the spicy mustard!..which we couldnt get enough of. Despite the lack of garlic in the said sauce, it was all still tasty. Huge portions, as usual had to take leftover back to hotel. Day after, read more

Was told to come here for lunch and try the tiny spicy chicken. So we went and got that and some Kung pao chicken. It was an excellent lunch and only $14! Highly recommend! read more

If there's a restaurant that makes me REALLY excited to come home for the Holidays it is Mandarin Garden! I have been coming here since I was a child and let tell you after eating at Chinese restaurants all over the world, this place is just incredibly delicious!! The quality of the ingredients is superior than most Chinese places, the service has always been wonderful, the decor could improve but my review is all about the food and service. I find their vast menu to be delicious though can make it hard to choose just one item at dinner! I recommend sharing with your guests to try a little of everything! Broccoli Beef is amazing, Happy Family, Orange Chicken, Seafood Soup, the fried rice is delicious!! This is definitely where I go as a guilty pleasure. Sure it's not that healthy but when you can treat yourself after a workout this place is a winner!! read more

Still the best Chinese food! Get the Broccoli with Garlic Sauce. Best thing on the menu and I know that sounds boring. This place was the first Chinese restaurant I lived in walking distance to. I have moved many times since, to other states and cities and traveled lots too, and I still have not found a better version of Broccoli with Garlic Sauce. This seemingly simple dish tastes the best here and it is majestic. Order it, you won't be sorry. The server told me the recipe is over 30 years old and very special. read more

Service was horrible. Took about 10 minutes to get us seated and took another 20 minutes to take our order. We chose not to order in the end due to being told by the server "I don't know how long it'll take to get your food", seemed like he didn't care. Bummer because the lunch special is great. Was super bummed in the end. read more

This place was recommended to us and now I wish I never spent my money here. Mediocrity at its finest. Over cooked and tasteless. You get a fair amount on their combination plates but who wants to eat it? Pass. read more

Food was lousy, service was worse. One drink refill the entire meal. Rice looked like it was cooked on Tuesday of last week. This place used to be so good, but like many restaurants in Logan it has all gone downhill......sad. read more

Pros: I didn't get *as* sick after eating from here than from other Chinese restaurants in the area. Cons: Everything else. We had a carry out meal that included two combo platters, one was Tiny Spicy Chicken, the other was Kung Bo Chicken. The Tiny Spicy was overcooked, the breading was tasteless and fell off of the sad white meat, and it was not spicy in the least. The Kung Bo Chicken was also not spicy at all, and weirdly had dark meat which I have never had in this dish...and I do consider myself a Chinese-American cuisine aficionado. The combo comes with mixed chow mein and a choice of soup or salad. The chow mein noodles sit below veggies and chicken covered in a gelatenous, tasteless sauce...so when you carry out, the noodles become soggy and inedible. The soup we chose, Hot and Sour, was actually really good. I should file that under "pro". Would I recommend this joint? Absolutely not. read more

I've lived in Logan my whole life (40+ years) and going to Mandarin Garden has always been a sort of tradition for our family. As I've grown up I have realized it's basically mediocre but with several things that do stand out. The Beef Broccoli is certainly a favorite. The broccoli is always cooked consistent and the sauce is probably the best one on their menu. The ham fried rice is always good and the fried wontons are exactly what they should be- crispy with delicious sauce. Like most people I love the Tiny Spicy Chicken but I can honestly say it's unusual that it's done right. More often than not the chicken is dry/overcooked and the batter they dip and fry the chicken in is soggy and nasty. But the level of service has gone up the past few years. They have some really good, attentive servers (that look overworked) and the guy with the cool glasses at the front desk is polite and courteous although some people may mistake him as aloof. One other note that has nothing to do with anything Mandarin Garden can control is that over the years I have consistently noticed how arrogant, condescending and dismissive local residents of Logan speak to the staff here. Even some community leaders and prominent church leaders.... read more
