This restaurant is very quaint only about 10 tables. The staff is very tentative. They have a lunch special Monday through Friday, but not on Saturday or Sunday. We came on Saturday. My friend had the Mongolian beef which she said was excellent and I had the sweet-and-sour pork which was very good. Then I had the hot and spicy soup which was very good. They do a lot of Pickup service here I definitely recommend this place read more

Very impressed with this place. I have been here several times and always receive very friendly, prompt service with excellent food. A small restaurant in a strip mall but you walk into the place and feel comfortable and welcomed. I have had several different dishes with consistent good quality and taste. Today, I had a chicken egg roll, hot and sour soup and combination fried rice. The food was delivered promptly, hot and fresh. And very tasty. Love this place. Even though I have several Chinese restaurants closer to me, I will drive further for this quality food and service. read more

Great service. 15 mins from order to table. Love that you can hear and smell your order being prepared. The Mongolian beef was spot on- onions still crunchy and layered in sauce. Teriyaki chicken was a very large portion, served on cabbage carrot mix. The sauce is not too sweet- great balance. We get our massages next door and then grab a bite to eat here.. read more

Wife and I continue our search for a true Chinese restaurant, no big bell peppers or yellow onions in every dish . Well, this had both. But were really friendly and accommodating and left them out upon request. The waitress was exceptionally good. Waters and tea were kept full and we were checked on regularly. The ambiance was beautifully decorated and very clean. Food was better than average but our search continues. read more

I've ordered take out a few times. On a scale of one to 10, it's a solid 6.5. Good food, but nothing exceptional or special to write home about. read more

My BF wanted to grab something quick for a late lunch. We went to Mandarin Kitchen and were greeted warmly by the woman working. It's a nicely decorated and inviting place and we commented that we would have enjoyed dining in because of the aesthetic vibes. We were in a hurry so just ordered a House Lo Mein to go. We love these noodles! The Lo Mein had so much flavor and a good portion size as well. It was really packed in the take out container. We kept commenting how we wished we had this place back home. Definitely recommend! read more

Small dining room, nice and clean. Compact menu compared to most Chinese restaurants, but I'd rather they do a few things well (they do) than do lots of things poorly. The staff is exceptionally friendly. Our waitress must've spent 15 minutes talking to us! Portions are large and exceptionally well executed. I had the beef chow fun noodles and it was absolutely perfect - flavorful, tender beef, just enough sauce, and a good number of bean sprouts which really make the dish. Two of us had the house special kung pao which they both said was excellent. One had the orange chicken which looked beautiful. 3/4 of us had enough to take home for another meal. Highly recommended - we will be back for more! read more

Stopped in here after seeing a movie tonight and was super impressed. The Mongolian beef had a really great sauce that was slightly sweet but also spicy. The Orange chicken was crispy, sweet, and spicy and our entrees came with a big old bowl of rice. Everything was delicious! Our server was very friendly and made sure everything was good for us. The restaurant is small but they fit a good amount of tables in there. It's also super clean! Definitely check it out and get the Mongolian beef! read more

My friends and I ordered takeout while we were staying in Arizona. All the meals came with fried rice. I got the chicken lo mein which tasted really good. I like they have chilli oil instead of just soy sauce and duck sauce. The thank you note was so sweet. I only took a star because the fried rice wasnt the best. It didn't taste like a fresh batch at all. If that was different, it would've been a perfect meal. read more

Not sure why this place doesn't have better reviews!! Partner and I were visiting AZ for a tournament and we were craving Chinese food. Though there are very few in the Tempe/Scottsdale area, this place definitely hit the mark!!! Employees are super nice, food is amazing and the portions are huge. We ended up here 3 times within the week and a half we were here. I've had the beef broccoli, the beef with mixed vegetables and the pepper steak with onions, all 10/10 would recommend!! read more

Ambience nice & clean. Waitress very nice. Lunch special was delicious and large portions. Sweet & Sour soup was very good.

Really enjoyed the lunch special of Szechaun chicken with fried rice and cream cheese wonton for $12. White meat was good as was sauce. Only improvement needed was the egg roll, which was more like a spring roll. read more

I had a pleasant experience at Mandarin Kitchen. The menu offers a good variety of Chinese dishes, and the food arrived hot and flavorful. The portions were generous, making it a great place to share with family or friends. The staff was courteous, and the restaurant had a comfortable, casual atmosphere. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that service can be a bit slow during busy hours, and a few dishes could use a little more seasoning. Overall, it's a reliable spot for satisfying Chinese cuisine and one I'd be happy to visit again. read more

I can't comment on service or ambiance because our food was To Go. But the place is clean and the service attentive. My wife had the orange tofu and my gosh, although I like tofu especially the silky type, this tofu must be hard skinned given this dish's construction. I couldn't stop eating it. She ordered it with mixed vegetables instead of broccoli and it was delicious. read more

My group and I traveled from California to attend an event and to celebrate my birthday. Following our meeting, we conducted a local food search on Yelp and decided to dine at Mandarin Kitchen. This establishment boasts a compact location with friendly staff who exhibit warm smiles and pleasant personalities. I have a particular fondness for Thai Milk Tea, especially when it is expertly prepared to achieve a perfect balance of sweetness. The Thai Milk Tea at Mandarin Kitchen is indeed flawlessly balanced. For lunch, I ordered the Chef's Special Kung Pao Delight and Edamame. The vegetables were crispy and cooked to perfection. The Kung Pao sauce was flavorful and not overly spicy. I am thoroughly enjoying my birthday celebration at Mandarin Kitchen. read more

My daughter wanted some egg drop soup so we came here. I typically do not like Chinese food. However this was beyond delicious. The orange chicken was by far the best I've ever had and the fried rice was outstanding. They give you a cream cheese wonton and spring roll with every lunch special. The service was quick and easy and the food came out fast. read more

Went on Friday night to try out this place at the behest of a fellow yelper. I do not know her but she indicated that the food was very good and we should frequent such a good place for fear of it going out of business. She said that the staff previously worked for Jade Palace and that was enough for me. Jade Palace has great food and the only complaints I hear about it is pricing. Here's how it went. The place is not super attractive, very perfunctory but I'm not here to eat the decor. We ordered chicken egg rolls as appetizers and my companion didn't touch his because of the overwhelming grease. The egg roll had opened somewhat and the grease entered the filling making it worse. I dried mine up with a napkin as best as I could but the grease persisted. Not good. I wanted shrimp with lobster sauce and I downloaded the ingredients that Jade Palace puts in their sauce for this dish. It showed that they add minced pork to the sauce. I asked if they could duplicate the sauce by adding the minced pork. The server then asked me if I knew how to make it. I asked her, "are you asking me for the recipe" to which she replied yes. (If I had the recipe I would make it at home myself!). I told her that I did not have the recipe and she quickly said, we can't make it without the recipe. My god, just add minced pork to your existing sauce I thought to myself. At this point I asked her who on her staff worked for Jade Palace in the past so that perhaps they could make it. She said the owner was the former staffer and she was not there. Exhausted I said, just give me your version of shrimp in lobster sauce. My companion ordered the chicken with mixed vegetable (how adventurous) because he wanted to keep it simple. He was not getting a good vibe after the egg roll The chicken was average tasting, nothing you would call delicious. a 7 of out 10, maybe. The shrimp with lobster sauce came with 9 small/medium shrimp which is a fair amount. The sauce was not flavorful and intercepted with lots of peas and carrots. The lady server was dressed kind of slovenly with an outfit that I would use to do my laundry and not to greet customers. She may want to upgrade. So all in all my rush to patronize this restaurant so it doesn't go out of business was moot. They will do that all by themselves. read more

Very clean. The food was good and came out fast for a quick lunch. Very friendly waitress. We recommend for a reasonable price

Quite remarkable take-out experience. Orange chicken, orange tofu and pork fried rice were all perfect. A strong recommendation. Great customer service. Ready on time. read more

We have ordered multiple times here and the food is less than edible. The Orange Chicken has hardly any chicken and will break your teeth, as it is so overcooked. The teriyaki chicken is all dark, fatty chicken. They don't have basic offerings like green beans (what Chinese food doesn't have green beans??). The dumpling dough is so thick, there is no room for filling and the prices are crazy high. I am from San Francisco where i grew up on the best Chinese food this side of Beijing. It's not that difficult make good Chinese food. I am so disappointed in the Asian food here. Tottie's Asian Fusion is the best thing I've had so far but because of their high prices, I can only go occasionally. I'd really like an old school , proper yet reasonable Chinese place I could go to on nights I don't have time to cook. read more

I love this Chinese restaurant. I pick up from here every week. I either order from the "health conscious" menu and get the steamed chicken and mixed vegetables (ideal if you are wanting something healthy, nutritional, and tasty. Or, I order from the main menu : chicken and mixed vegetables (in a house brown sauce), and the Mongolian beef. Very nice staff/owners as well! read more

It is so cliché but true... I have been searching for delicious Chinese food since I came to AZ 5 years ago and have not found any place I have wanted to visit a second time. Until now. This is hands down my go to place for this cuisine. Thank you Mandarin Kitchen!!!! All the positive reviews speak for themselves. This place is excellent. Most talk about how it reminds them of New York Chinese food taste. I grew up in San Francisco Bay Area and I am saying the same thing but for the Bay! The Bay Area has a large Chinese community who have honored their culture and food whether they just arrived in the States or have been here for generations. This place reminds me of the mouthwatering Chinese food that this folks so proudly and graciously shared with us in the Bay; the food I grew up with! read more

Egg rolls - Amazing flavor and crispy. Beef and broccoli was phenomenal. Beef was super tender and the sauce was incredibly flavorful. Quaint space (6 booths and two tables) that was clean. I would definitely come back! read more

They don't use real chicken. (I rarely if ever leave reviews but felt it was nesessary) I got their sesame chicken. It tasted great at first... but the chicken was like mush. I split it open and it was like a string texture. Which tells me they aren't using real chicken. This has been coming up in food stores lately. So, if you're someone who wants to know when you're going out and ordering from a restaurant -- this place doesn't use real chicken. Was super bummed because the flavor was great, and I couldn't get myself to eat the rest of it so had to throw most of it away. It was exceptionally clear it wasn't real. So, heads up! read more

We ordered the sweet-and-sour chicken and the Mongolian beef. The sweet-and-sour chicken was all batter and maybe a little nibble of some part of the chicken. I could barely taste it. It was terrible! The Mongolian beef had a good presentation but again there was hardly any meat in the dish. Will not be returning here. read more

Food was subpar. No traditional hot tea, just a coffee mug with a tea bag in it, really not what I expected from a Chinese restaurant of any size. read more

All I ordered tonight was a large Wonton ton soup. Flavor was good. Plenty of Won Tons. It smelled appetizing, and the people that were dining seemed to really enjoy their food. I willl go back when Im hungrier and update my review read more

Delicious food and big portions! Kung pao delight (beef, chicken, shrimp) is tasty, not too sweet not to salty. We love the tasty peanuts they put on top, not mix in. Singapore noodle is wonderful. It is dry, not soggy, and the flavor is on point. I want to come back to try other dishes. read more

We've dined in and ordered delivery. Both times, the food was fresh, hot, and tasty. Definitely our favorite Chinese restaurant since we moved to Arizona which says a lot since there's so many of them. Prices are on the higher side, but they're located in Scottsdale, so that's pretty common. Nothing special about the ambiance. The one time we dined in, the service was great, but we were also the only ones there. read more

The food and take out were A+!! It was beyond fresh and the girl that took our order was a doll!!

I love Chinese cuisine and this Chinese deserves applause! Just wonderful, so fresh food!

I usually enjoy cooking for my guests while entertaining in my home. But because of a recent compression fracture, I decided to have a Mandarin Kitchen cater a recent event for me. I was so pleased with everything. The presentation and the quality of the food was A+ Tiffany the owner went out of her way to make sure everything was spot on. I will definitely use them again and I am very pleased with this experience. read more

Every thing we had here was made fresh. Even the won tons were hand made fresh. We knew when all the locals were coming in for takeout we had found the spot. The service was quick and friendly. The dining room is decorated nicely and the booths were like new. Definitely worth the visit. read more
