Mandarin Restaurant - Oshawa

I've been to many different Mandarin locations and it's always been the same for me EXCEPT for the Oshawa location.__Although the food in every Mandarin

Still the family's favouritePrompt exceptional serviceFood hot, appetizing and plentifulNew decor is lovely.

Was trying to make a reservation on Chinese New Year Eve as is an hour drive from our home.

Our regular Chinese food restaurant is relocating so we decided to order delivery from The Mandarin tonight. We were told that our order would be delivered within an hour....75 mins later we still had no food. Once it was delivered, we dug in. What a disappointment! The egg rolls were the only good thing about the entire meal. The chicken balls were dry and stale. The noodles were salty. The General Tao chicken was indescribable and don't bother with the "special" Pad Thai...Yuck! Even the sweet and sour sauce was terrible. $113 later and I'm going to throw every bit of leftovers in the trash. How can the food at the buffet be so much better than delivery? I will never order again. What a giant waste of money.

We only had a 5 minute wait (had reservations) to be seated .Waitress arrived immediately and took our drink order. Food was excellent-lots of choices.,especially the roast beef!! Great choices for dessert.
