Thursday, Nov. 18, 2025 Approx. 4:30 PM Management served their House Chow Mein with satisfactory servings of shrimp, beef, chicken & pork as you can see in the picture below. Flavor seemed better than my last order of Chow Mein back in September. Maybe they hired a new cook? For the price and volume, today I'm impressed. read more

Everything was delicious. I always leave real reviews. And I must say coming from the bay area. It is very hard to find some good authentic food and this place right here really nailed it. Please don't ever change your thing and thank you for getting my order exactly how I ordered it over the phone. read more

We ordered the hot and spicy chicken, broccoli, beef, fried rice, pork chow mein, lemon chicken, & mixed vegetables. They always give ample portions and we got buffet style portions this time. The food is flavored well. They always give large portions, the lemon chicken is coated perfectly with a real authentic lemon flavor. I felt the spicy chicken was not too hot and flavorful also. The service is always very prompt and friendly. It is most of a to go type order place with I think some chairs inside to sit down after you order & wait but no inside tables. You could get food and sit outside in the patio area, which is covered. Great location and plenty of parking in the Marina Business center. I've been going to this place for years. It is a little greasy sometimes, comfort food, but it's very tasty and very affordable. read more

Ordered 2 Combination Plates with 2 proteins and a side of crab rangoons (8) for $23 total. So cheap! They asked if I wanted soda with my combo plates or eggrolls instead, so they gave me 2 eggrolls for each plate I bought. The orange chicken and general chicken are good here! Tender, moist and not too sweet. The teriyaki chicken was alright, I wouldn't get it again because I felt like the marinade wasn't flavorful enough. The Broccoli Beef had a weird tang to it and the broccoli was a little mushy. Wasn't a fan of the beef in it either because it was super jelly like, had no type of bite to it. The chow mein here is standard, could use some more flavor and more pork pieces in it but will satisfy your chow mein cravings so I would get this again. Crab rangoons were very crispy but the filling was sweeter than normal, still good. Veggie eggrolls were standard and good. Service was awesome, friendly and fast. Prices are good! I'm definitely coming back read more

As I was walking in with my family, I heard one of the men behind the counter, possibly the owner, call a lady that was walking out stupid. She may have been one of those beggars but that was no reason to call her stupid. They were also pretty rude to us, I was not impressed and will not be going back. read more

This is one of my favorite places when i lived in Stockton it's very affordable and way better than panda .

The staff is super friendly and the food is always great. The Crab Rangoon, Egg Foo Young and Kung Pao Chicken are the best around.

Food was awful, lacked flavor! Ordered the 3 item combo- chow mein, fried rice, sweet and sour pork and a piece of garlic chicken. Where to begin.... Sweet and sour sauce tasted like it was made with catsup along with soggy pork pieces. The chow mein had little to no vegetables tasted bland along with the fried rice. Garlic chicken used to really good, sadly not anymore! This used to be my go to place for take out! I'm disappointed with the lack of flavor and quality of the food that's being served! Time to find somewhere new! Don't waste your time or money at this place!! read more

Pretty sure this all costed like $30. Great quality food, great portions, and the staff are always friendly. They even gave us some free egg rolls! Love coming here for quick dinner read more

Mandarin Villa Express - Chinese Near Me - Stockton, California

Mandarin Villa Express. Located off Ben Holt in Stockton, CA. Super long over due review. We've (The kids and I) have been ordering food here since last year. I saw some reviews on Yelp, so I had to see what's up. The bottom line,.we do love Chinese food. So from time to time we stop on by and get our grub on. Here's our latest story: I just clocked out from work and my youngest daughter hits me up and wanted Chinese food. Our go to spot Sherman's is currently closed since the outbreak of Covid-19. So I did my search for places that were still open. Food for less China Express is shut down as well and Panda was going be our choice. But luckily I called these guys up and guess what? They are open for take out. Win win for good ole Dad. When I rolled up, I noticed hella cars. I was like wtf is going on. But there's curb side pick up for the other restaurants that are next door. Right before you walk in there's a sign that says only two people allowed. I was lucky that a couple was just leaving. But then again, you got fools breaking the rules and try to rush in. They got everything on point in here. The food is kept in a steam table. If you ever been to Panda Express. It's set up like that. Some people like and some people don't. I don't trip off those who don't. The have some pretty good deals. We picked out 3 items $5.95 that come with a free water, or Soda or two egg rolls. Our order was for my daughter. Chow mein, fried rice and beef with broccoli. Yours truly fried rice, beef with broccoli and kung pao chicken. The food was on smack. The rice wasn't cooked to my liking. The veggies were soft and the meat had flavor. To be honest the food put me in a food coma. After I killed the food . my inner Kung-Fu Panda straight knocked me the f out.. So if you wanna know where to get some cheap and good eats. Give these guys a try. Stay safe out there Sincerely VD "My three kids are my world and everything else in life is a bonus'© "Enjoying the simple things in life"© read more

Best Chinese food in town and best prices. Can't go wrong with this place. We definitely can't get enough of this place!

Worst customer service I have ever received from a Mandarin restaurant. No place inside of restaurant to eat pick up/order to go and that is it, but even call in orders should wait in line if their food isn't ready. No one not even an owner should make an entire restaurant wait for someone who got in line after everyone else. Only picking up understandable. However, if their food isn't even ready yet why aid in this persons entitlement by allowing them to skip all of those who have already been waiting over 10 minutes to order. Horrible communication with each other with customer. Also, the way they all mistreat that young employee is ludicrous I have seen that old man yell at her more times than I care to remember. Overall, food is overly greasy, any/everything counts as an item, nothing is fresh and you get crummy service. Rice, chow mein, and an order of any type of meat would be considered a three item plate. As opposed to anywhere else where you would get rice and chow mein plus two items. All in all there are better places to grab Chinese food. read more

This place is a Hidden Gem ! I am beyond glad my husband brought me here instead of panda ! Lol I did not expect it to taste sooo good and flavorful! It was plain and simple and your in and out of there in seconds ! Great place - Great Food & Great Prices read more

Mandarin Villa Express - Great food - Chinese Near Me - Stockton, California

Pro tip 3 item combo w/ free egg rolls. I always go beef brocolli, kungpao chicken, or general chicken. I always tip them 30 % because their prices are excellent, portions are MASSIVE and the service is great, down to special requests like 'extra beef', or no veggies in the chow mein. Not to mention in these times great food from good people at great prices that can satisfy a wide tange of pallets is not to be taken for granted; imo they are a neighborhood staple. Shopping for groceries at marina market? Call in your order when you're shopping. Thanks guys. Ps i get extra egg rolls, and they never last the trip back to the house. read more

this is my new favorite place!! :) my boyfriend had told me about this place a while back because he used to go when he was in high school and i finally went with him and it was a 10/10. i've already been back 3 times this week because i LOVE the fried rice. this place definitely beats panda 100% because for our 2 plates we paid $15 and some change and not to mention if you get the 2 plate combo, you can get either spring rolls or a free drink which is really amazing and the portions are another win also. lastly, i believe it's the gentleman who owns the place and he is really nice whenever i go in! read more

My husband and I have stopped her many times to pick up a quick lunch and always find that their 4 item meal for less than $10 is enough for 2 meals. Today we needed to serve dinner to Stockton Yacht Club so ordered a few days ahead to serve 30-35 people. We ordered chow mein, fried rice, sweet and sour pork, broccoli beef and mixed vegetables. Dinner was a huge hit! Everyone commented on how good the food was and price was definitely right. Will definitely keep this in mind whenever we need to feed a crowd! read more
