on Judys Book Sep 21, 2011I was told by several people that the Mandarin was THE best Chinese restaurant around, but the wait would take forever. My husband and I decided to go for our 11 year anniversary. It was on the Saturday of the big... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 09, 2008The ONLY good place in Utah to get good Chinese food. It's only a 15 minute drive from downtown Salt Lake City. Take out is not as good.... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 08, 2008The service is great, the Cashew Chicken is delish and you can count on a good time. Call ahead so you can walk in. Great for a date or family affair. The family style dishes are easy to share and enjoy.... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 30, 2007This place is the bomb! They have wonderful dishes to choose from. Try the lamb, wonderful! My husband and I go there all the time and we are never disappointed. I don't understand how some places can even be in business... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 18, 2007I don't know what happened to those that thought it was greasy or had way to much batter. The 5 taste shrimp, which is the best ever, has almost no batter at all, and I haven't had any two things that tast alike. Maybe the... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 24, 2007Ok... I understand that there are not a lot of dining options in Bountiful Utah and I appreciate the enthusiasm of the locals for one of the few in that community that is not a fast food chain. I'm sure that if you grew up in... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 08, 2007I have lived all over the U.S.A. and I have NEVER EVER had Chinese as good as this. It is to die for. Get there early on the weekend (by 5:00) or you could end up waiting a very long time. If you have a group of 8 or more you can... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 14, 2007I work at the mandarin as a server, and I thought i'd give my recommendations for avoiding a line: -Come on a tuesday. You won't find a line. If you do, I'll buy you a beer. deal? -Come later on weekends. You'd be... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 22, 2006One of my favorite places to eat! The people are nice and the food is good. You have to wait if you don't get there early, but it's well worth it. You get more than your money's worth of food and the experience is simply... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 21, 2005I have been going to this place for 18 years. It never fails to please me. This is my all time favorite restaurant. I have never tasted better Wonton soup. I really doubt that anyone will be unhappy with their experience... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2005The Mandarin is an absolute must if you like Chinese food. Even if you don't, you will after visiting the Mandarin. The food is truly fantastic, and the prices are quite reasonable. The atmosphere is always... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 31, 2005For all the hype and awards I read before going to this resturant, I was expecting a gourmet chinese resturant. Instead, imagine your local chinese american resturant except one or two steps above in food in... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 13, 2005My wife and I moved to Bountiful about 4 years ago and have heard non-stop about how we "have to eat at the Mandarin." We finally tried it and have confirmed what we have thought for a long time- a full parking lot in... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 09, 2005My parents live in Bountiful and have been going to the Mandarin for years. We have family dinners there often. The food is good if maybe too American and it is very nice inside once you get inside. The problem is that... (more)

on Judys Book Aug 20, 2005The Mandarin restaurant is amazing, absolutely the best Chinese food in Utah. It's always bustling with people, weekdays or weekends, due largely to the fact that their food is amazing. The pricing is relatively... (more)

on Judys Book Aug 05, 2005Chinese food never tasted so good. This place is famous, and not just because I am telling the world about it. You must plan on a wait, to be able to eat here and it is really worth the wait. My favorite Chinese restaurant,... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 26, 2005Having lived near the Mandarin for years, it was hard not to eat take out every night once the cooking begins and fills the neighborhood with its aroma. Nothing plain or average here except the prices. Authetic... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 08, 2004Arrive early. Wait patiently. Have the best Chinese dinner in Utah. Get the asparagus beef and anything else the waiter recommends as the special of the day, this includes desserts. Avoid the scallops. They are... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 11, 2004This place is such a local favorite - you have to line up at the door 20-30 minutes before they open at five. If you are not in the first "wave" - you wait until 6:30 to eat. Request the "patio" - newer and with a better view.... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 02, 2004It is laughable what this glorified Greek diner is successfully passing off (with loads of attitude) to Utahns as authentic Chinese cuisine. All dishes were bland, similarly flavored and extremely greasy, with... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 13, 2003<b>The Scene</b><br>You'll find a crowd waiting for tables almost every night of the week. Fringed lanterns and detailed paneling on the walls create an authentic feel. White tablecloths and colorful plates add... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 23, 2003Great, unique chinese food. The only downside is that they treat all their guests like cattle. Not taking reservations results in 1-2 hour waits for a table. It would be nice if they weren't quite so greedy and took... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 07, 2003Sorry, I love PF Changs, but not even close. Best Chinese i have ever had, and I have had a lot. Only negative on the whole place is waiting in line for up to 3 hours. Pay a visit, you won't be sorry!!!... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 03, 2003I don't know who posted the most recent reviews, and I wouldn't put much stock in the pizza delivery guy's angry vent against the Mandarin owners. Whatever the case, try your luck searching for better Chinese in Salt... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002You do have to stand in line if you don't arrive early, but it is well worth the wait. They are great at getting you seated asap even with the crowds they get. The food is wonderful, the service is great. I recommend to all... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002This is my family's all time favorite restaraunt in Utah. Go early and order your dessert at the beggining of the meal before they are out of your favorites. The creme brulee is excellent!... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2002Too greasy and Americanized--PF Chang's is a million times superior! The Mandarin is not by any means in the top "10". (more)
