PLEASE READ!!!! VERY IMPORTANT FOR YOUR HEALTH AND WELL BEING. I’ve been going to Mandarin since I was a child, I’m not sure how many owners there have been but it was the best Chinese Restaurant in Rockland at that time. NOW.. DO NOT GO HERE! The food is NOT EDIBLE ,and HORRENDOUS!! threw it out! the owners are nasty and the place is dark and dirty, he gave me a dirty look cuz I asked for another duck sauce. I Ordered mixed veggies in garlic sauce, for lunch and veggie Lo Mein. The MIXED VEGGIE DISH HAD 3 pieces of Chinese celery , that’s it ! NO OTHER VEGGIES, maybe 1 or 2 mushrooms. and UNDERNEATH that …WAS PORK FRIED RICE! Which is not stated on menu ,, on the menu it says choice of soup , egg roll, OR RICE. I don’t EAT PORK ! I almost threw up ! LOOKED LIKE DOG FOOD! And WAS LIKE RUBBER. THE LO MEIN TASTED 4 days OLD, WITHOUT ANY VEGGIES , AND VERY DARK, as though they took 4 day OLD LO MEIN AND SMOTHERED IT WITH SOY SAUCE. I TRIED TO PUT DUCK SAUCE ON IT TO KILL THE TASTE, and the DUCK SAUCE TASTED LIKE RANCID VINEGAR!! I CALLED THE RESTAURANT AND ASKED To speak with the MANAGER… and the man hung up on me. Called back 3 more times, he picked up and hung up. I wish I READ THE OTHER REVIEWS before I ordered from here. THERE’S no way this place can stay in business, I hope it closes soon! Even the fortune cookie was stale and tasted like dishwater ! RUN AWAY !!!!!!!! Let’s hope for...
Read moreI wish I could give this place a better rating but I cannot. The dishes I ate steamed shrimp and vegetables and tofu and broccoli with brown rice was good. I enjoyed them. The vegetables were fresh and that’s important. My father had the sweet and sour chicken was clearly frozen and terrible. I mean the chicken was processed with a bread coating so was all bread deep fried and served with the sauce on the side. Just dreadful. They liked the spare ribs. I never saw such small egg rolls. Anyway our server was so nice and accommodating. There was a new server and it was her first day. She brought over the chicken and we asked what it was. She had no idea and neither did we. The decor was terrible. The new owners have put zero money into the appearance but since it was my first time there I wouldn’t know. It really how could it have been worse? Put some plants in there? Pictures on the walls? Set up the tables nicely?In the bathroom they left the pail with the mop in it! A dirty rag was on the sink and the garbage pail had something that wasn’t a garbage bag in it. Overall I guess for takeout it would be fine if you ordered the right dishes but that would be hit and miss. Although it...
Read moreI am in totally disbelief of the service and the food in this establishment. I ordered a very simple dish since I have never been here but I've had this dish elsewhere. First off walking in the place I was wondering were they going out of business. There were boxes all over the place in chairs on tables open closed boxes the counter was cluttered as.well there were no other customers so it was a bit odd but my husband and I were hungry. I ordered chicken egg foo young I ve had numerous places in the past so.i figured it's simple, well what a disgrace. The etiquette is horrible for customers to dine in. The egg foo young arrived looking like dry hockey pucks w a tiny bowl of what was to be gravy. Clearly whoever made it was a amateur I had no intention of eating I broke it open with my fork out curiosity. Wow unbelievable I advised I did not want and the waitress got offended and I told her I've never seen this dish look this way she got very rude and told me I had to pay for it regardless even tho I did not eat it. The tables are NOT set for indoor dining very unorganized I asked for soy sauce for the rice was given 2 packets. Can I tell you this is the worst establishment I've ever encountered...
