    Dinner
    Holland L.

    Food was gross, we got take out and ended up eating a few bites and then throwing 80$ worth of food in the trash. Definitely do not recommend. There were bitter black bits all through my wife's chicken fried rice. Looks like non stick teflon flakes

    Lycheetini

    Mandarin Kitchen was cute and had a nice vibe. We only tried the lychee martini and the bang bang chicken, but both were solid, especially the bang bang chicken. I wasn't overly excited about the menu at first glance, but it's definitely a place I'd come back for lunch or dinner to try more options.

    $1 oysters and happy hour bubbles
    Luciente G.

    I've come here more than a handful of times and always leave happy. One time I didn't like my dish and that dish is now off the menu, so I guess I wasn't alone. Most recently came in for dinner with my dad. We shared a dozen oysters that tasted fresh and delicious, great mignonette sauce. One oyster looked a little questionable to me, and they promptly replaced it. We both ordered the pad thai and it hit the spot. I have been ordering it other places, and it just hasn't tasted right. This time it did, and I am already craving it again! It comes with chicken, tofu and two plump prawns. Love the aquarium and the mandarin decor! Servers are usually hustling around as it has always been busy every time I've been in; however I'm always seated promptly with no wait.

    Singapore noodles
    Melissa L.

    Came here with husband on a Friday night. It wasn't too busy. Love the big fish tank and decor of the resturant. I can tell the owner thought everything out very well. We ordered the tour of Asian, Singapore noodles, and salt and pepper seafood. Tour of Asia was probably the best of the three things we ordered. Dim Sum tasted like they were frozen dumplings. Bao buns was off with meat to bao ratio. Singapore noodles had ok flavor but I think the wok needed to be hotter for a drier stir fry. I was disappointed with the salt and pepper seafood. I guess I should have read the description better. However typically when you order anything salt and pepper at a Chinese restaurant it's deep fried and then dried stir fried also with not as many veggies. I'm not sure we will be back Overall 2.75/5 stars

    Solid packaging.

    This is the first time that we went to Mandarin kitchen. It was a welcoming experience, and the food was ready exactly what they expected. We were welcomed warmly by the staff. The parking in the Montgomery Village shopping center was easy. It was a very relaxed environment and you could even say Zen. We tried to a variety of dishes and I think I may try others in the future. The duck bao was lovely and worth the money. They were presented in a taco shape with a light spiciness in the hoisin, perfectly tender duck, and fragrant and tasty cilantro and pickled veg. The beet salad was fairly standard, especially in Sonoma County. Seems a little strange on this menu, considering the other options that we ordered, but it was nice as I do love a beet salad. My husband ordered the fried rice with barbecued pork. It was fresh and well cooked. It was filled with vegetables and some barbecued pork. The dish was very vegetable forward with a limited amount of meat. Overall, it was a tasty and basic option. I ordered a chicken and peanut sauce with vegetables. What a great option! The peanut sauce had a little bit of heat and a finish of lime. Totally worth it as the vegetables were cooked perfectly. Al dente vegstables are my preference and this dish did not disappoint. My only negative feedback would be that it was quite expensive for the portions. Overall, this was a solid experience.

    I've been coming here for a long time and all I can say is I love this place no matter the day! Food, service and ambiance is amazing! Everything from the decorations of the establishment to the presentation on your plate! Also if you are looking for a good place for happy hour this is the place for you

    I thought?? I'd read a good review for this place and I was hungry and I thought I would get some to go. I was not trying to get their lunch special, it was almost near dinner time and no one asked me if that's what I wanted. I wanted the full size chicken dish that I ordered but apparently got the lunch special? It was half of what I expected plus rice which I didn't need. Way past most regular lunch hours. Even worse in my opinion, I thought it was impossible to get below average chicken chow mein, so I ordered that to be on the safe side just in case but was proven wrong. Their special menu dish was called crispy chicken with cashews. Wow disappointing! I'll show you in pictures and I'm not being a drama queen everything was bigger than the pieces of chicken. I would literally label them shards of chicken. I've never seen anything like this. The mushrooms, zucchini and onion were way bigger than the limited pieces of chicken. Was this what was left at the end of their lengthy lunch hour? Maybe, but that's not an excuse. Also I should've been asked if I wanted the lunch special. The chicken chow mein I would never describe as regular chicken chow mein. It tasted like the vegetables that it's in and again not a lot of chicken- it actually had a strong zucchini flavor to it and I'm not a huge zucchini fan so I added soy sauce which didn't help a whole lot. The woman working there told me their food was amazing and I will be so happy and want to come back for sure! By the way usually my chest is Mongolian beef and they have no beef at all. Anyhow I'm very bummed and I wish them well but I will not be back. Especially for almost $40

    Lunch Eggplant
    Lisa W.

    Another fabulous experience here. All the servers are well trained, professional and attentive. Today our server was Ryan. I enjoyed the garlic eggplant last time so much I ordered it again. My friend loved her pumpkin curry. Very pleasant ambience with nice music playing in the background.

    [SUN ROOM SEATING] has a live fish tank, panoramic windows & phenomenal natural lighting

    On a casual Sunday I wandered into Mandarin Kitchen for lunch & I'm glad that I did. Moderately busy, yet "no wait". I was greeted by friendly staff who inquired about my seating preferences, & then immediately whisked me to my table. I was delighted to observe that the space was very clean, well lit, & offered such a comfy/cozy vibe with clean lines with rich materials used in furnishings. Perfect for a nice lunch, happy hour, brunch, birthday, or date night. There bar seating or sun/moon room seating. Bar seating offer the infamous "THIS MUST BE THE PLACE" fluorescent light, the bar of course, & the kitchen where all the magic is happen. With it being open you can see some of the food being prepare which is always cool! [MY ORDER] Appetizer: Bang Bang Shrimp Entrée: Singapore Noodles w/ Chicken The Bang Bang Shrimp was the best way to start my dish! The shrimp batter was crispy, light, & flavorful. The sauce was perfectly sweet & spicy. This dish was proper above thinly shredded cabbage which I ate along with the shrimp for freshness. Probably enough for two but also perfect for one "craving size" The star of the show, the Singapore Noodles! This dish was phenomenal! I'd order it over & over again! Flavoring of the curry was perfectly pungent yet tamed by the freshness of thick cut bell peppers, squash, & the squeeze of lime was nothing short of divine. I enjoyed every moment of consuming this dish! Plus it never hurts when portions are enough for two or for one with leftovers. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND eating at Mandarin Kitchen of Santa Rosa! I'll be back to experience other dishes most certainly! Thank you for hosting me for my dining experience!

    The interior of this restaurant is so beautiful, I could sit in it all day. Very comfortable seating and the workers were so sweet. We mostly came here for the $1 oysters and they were AMAZING. They were fresh, sweet, and paired so deliciously with their vinaigrette! They're only the small side, which makes sense, but I love the size! I will definitely be coming back here for them. We also ordered the bang bang shrimp, har gow, and pad thai. DEFINITELY order the bang bang shrimp! Crunchy and a delicious sweet-savory flavor. DON'T get the pad thai. It was way too salty and had too much oyster sauce. The har gow was just okay, I would skip it next time. Overall, this restaurant was way better than I expected. I'll be back to try the other menu items! If you love oysters, then I definitely recommend coming here for their $1 oyster deal (Mon - Thurs).

    Bang Bang Shrimp

    Wow! Such a great experience! Stopped by for quick snack with my kiddo. He had the Bang Bang shrimp and we both loved it. ;) I ordered 12 raw oysters ($1 M-Th) and they were fresh and delicious! Also had an excellent lemon drop. Will definitely be back. Special thanks to Holiday, our supreme waitress!

    Outside

    Great personal service, helped with our child feeling welcome, very kind and quick service. Very presentable surroundings.

    Happy hour menu
    Chey I.

    Formerly known as Tony's Galley. Went here without reservation and got seated right away. It wasn't as busy as it was Wednesday late afternoon. Made it to the happy hour too and got to order before it ended. Ordered a cocktail, pad thai and shumai. Wonderful service and has that fancy ambiance with affordable price!

I came in for an earlier ramen lunch and ended up wanting to get all their appetizers. There's a variety of apps but I wasn't too hungry so I ordered mini sesame balls for the table ( 3 for $1!!!) and octopus ball/sesame balls to go. At the end, I also got the homemade sauce just to try bc it was packed in a glass mason jar and relatively affordable. For food, I got tonkotsu ramen and the broth was good. I think it was missing the condiments and some umami flavoring. I'm not sure. It was 3.5 imo. The sesame balls were good and so was the octopus ball. The salmon looked plentiful and came with lots of sides but I'm not sure how it tasted bc I didn't order. All the dishes were cleared out though so I'd say it was a successful lunch trip. They have a long fish display in the front and plenty of seating too! Reminds me to go back to Japan soooon.
