We've been ordering from Mandarin Garden for many years. I have always picked up our order and taken home to enjoy. My personal all time favorite is Shrimp in Lobster Sauce. There are many other favorites, but too long to list.

Good food for bunch of hungry kids. Youngest loved their orange chicken and sweet and sour pork, we all loved paper chicken and Mongolian beef. I felt like it could have had more spice, but I'm always bringing in my kids with me who are partial to things that aren't spicy Loved the service. Good people. We will be back to try more things. And the part where we got seated was clean and well kept. Didn't notice the rest.

Everything we ordered from the Seafood soup to Walnut Shrimp and veggie chow mein was very delicious and staff was super friendly! We will definitely be back again when we are in town.

The food was okay, not bad, the portions are a bit smaller than we are using to. the crispy duck was definitely not bad. There was only 2 people running the whole restaurant so they were way too busy. it took a long time to even get our check.

A friendly and welcome dining place whether we take out for home or dine inside the restaurant. Food arrives fairly quickly and the portions are generous as well! Always plenty of leftovers for lunch or dinner the next day. Hubby always orders the sweet and sour pork with pork fried rice. I like to try different items and always a scrumptious treat that comes with a smile.

Great food and better service they treat you like family. If you in Lake Tahoe this is a place you have to go

Every time I've been to this restaurant, they have been nothing but courteous and nice to me. During this visit a lady named I think was Susan had a customer that was legally blind. Seeing that it was dark outside and the customer typically not being on his own outside gave the customer a ride home not knowing this older gentleman. This gesture of kindness is great to see and makes me wanting to come back again. Not to mention how many flavors for sparkling water ha ha. Thank you for treating your customers so well ( :
