It was the first time trying duck for some of us. Even with several other parties in the restaurant, the dining room had this odd lighting that made it feel like a liminal space. A strange combo of pink and sage green covered the room and there were mirrors lining all the windowless walls. Since they didn't have the usual buns for the duck, they served it with "pancakes" (basically thin tortillas), which worked as a great substitute while we piled on duck, scallions, and sauce. The duck flavor was good, though it could've been a bit juicier with crispier skin, but not bad at all. We also got the mandarin soft noodles, which had a great combo of proteins. Just those two dishes were plenty for the four of us. Overall it was helpful service and solid food, just a unique setup!

Ick. Now, I'm basing my review on only one lunch by myself, so figure that in as you read…read more This place certainly loves it's oil. Everything I had was laden with this heavy, greasy, fattening stuff. If you're a fan of cooking oil, this is your go-to spot for sure. I had the "gourmet" dinner. That means Mongolian beef, my usual in basic old-school Chinese places like this. I chose won ton soup over the seafood soup choice. The broth was fine, but the won tons were thick and doughy. Not great. The beef seemed of a decent quality, but was absolutely floating in oil. This made the green and white onions too soft and mushy and dripping with oil. Ditto the very messy foil wrapped chicken appetizer, but the egg roll was okay, if bland. There are plenty of excellent choices for all types of Chinese cuisine in the Valley. No need to come here. Again though, remember I only had one dish, but I have an idea it's indicative of the entire menu.​

Mandarin Island is an older Chinese restaurant in Mission Hills. The restaurant itself is…read morewell-maintained and fairly clean. Parking can be an issue, but we usually find a parking spot in the back. We dine there often when we visit the area. The servers are friendly, and our orders have always been served hot. There has never been any wait to be seated, and the wait for our food has always been minimal. Their menu offers a wide variety of choices, and with a few exceptions, none of the dishes we have ordered have been disappointing. The portions are more than substantial. On this visit, we ordered from the "A - Family Dinner" and selected shrimp with lobster sauce, peppered beef with mushrooms, and a side of Kung Pao spicy shrimp. The Kung Pao spicy shrimp was a disappointment because it was not spicy at all (delicious, but not spicy). It also comes with paper-wrapped chicken, rice, and soup of choice. Overall, I would recommend it.

I'm a bit surprised at all the low ratings but, I'm happy I decided to give this small business a try. I placed an order online through their website, and placed an order for pick up. The pick up time was 45 mins, which was a bit high, but we were okay with that because we ordered early enough, and the food was worth the wait. Once we arrived, we found parking in the back, so I entered from there, mentioned my name, picked it up, and went home to enjoy it. The place itself looked a bit dated but was a cute little restaurant. I wouldn't mind eating inside the next time around. We ordered the cheese rangoon for our appetizer, I got the beef lomein for myself, and my boyfriend got the Kung Pao Chicken. It came with rice which was nice. The total was $45 with taxes, which was reasonable given the potion size and quality. It took us two days to finish it. All the food was flavorful, fresh, and delicious. I will definitely be ordering from here again!

This review is only regarding the posted hours versus what I experienced upon arrival…read more I had a long day at work and was really looking forward to treating myself to what's rated as the best Chinese food in the area. I even drove a bit out of my way to come here, only to find a "closed" sign on the door. I truly hope everything is okay with the owners and staff, but it was disappointing that there wasn't any notice or backup plan for unexpected closures. From what I could see through the window, the restaurant looked very clean and well-kept. I'll definitely want to try again another time but will certainly call first!!!!

It is not Frankensteins intention to be negative here today. But wholly Yelp hype Batman! Yes,…read moreFrankenstein can buy into a good hype every so often which the Bride of Frankenstein enjoys pointing out. Especially when Frankenstein is wrong. Frankenstein enjoys braised beef noodle soup. A lot. Frankenstein's heart was yanked out of his huge body and crushed when Mandarin Deli went out of business during Covid. A pain he still feels even today. They had the best Braised Beef Noodle Soup ever! Frankenstein went hook, line, and sinker when he read the Yelp hype about this place. Bottom line, nice people, not as awesome as was described. Braised Beef Noodle Soup- Sorry Noodles Kitchen but it's too chili hot. About a 8.5 to 9 on Frankensteins too hot scale. Beef was okay, not great. Noodles were good. Bride of Frankenstein had one taste and pushed it away. "Mucho Caliente" Orange Chicken, fine. Let's not go overboard everyone. Pan Fried Dumplings, good. Check it out for yourself. 10/11/2025 Update- It saddens Frankenstein to see so many fake reviews over and over again. Really Noodles Kitchen? Please.

Be careful and double-check the prices you're being charged here…read more The menu board clearly lists the Special Bowl for $7.99, but I was originally charged about $3 more than the advertised price. When I pointed out the price discrepancy to the cashier, she lowered the price by $1, but she still did not charge me the advertised $7.99 price. My receipt ended up showing $9.07. What bothered me most is that even after I specifically pointed out that the price did not match what was posted on their menu board, I was still charged more. Just be aware when paying and make sure you double-check your receipt against the prices displayed on their menu. Tengan cuidado y revisen bien los precios que les están cobrando en este lugar. En el menú aparece claramente que el Special Bowl cuesta $7.99, pero originalmente me cobraron aproximadamente $3 más del precio anunciado. Cuando le señalé a la cajera que el precio no coincidía, bajó el precio $1, pero aun así no me cobró los $7.99 que aparecían en el menú. Al final, mi recibo mostraba un precio de $9.07. Lo que más me molestó fue que, incluso después de señalarle específicamente que el precio no coincidía con el que estaba anunciado en el menú, todavía me cobraron de más. Tengan esto en cuenta al momento de pagar y asegúrense de revisar su recibo y comparar lo que les cobran con los precios que aparecen en el menú

I don't think I've ever come here and not been completely satisfied by whatever I ordered. This is…read morecoming from someone that has likely ordered nearly everything on the menu. My all time favorite is definitely the Spicy Chicken but I will eat anything here. The breading on the chicken is so light, yet crispy, yet covered in sauce...I'm not sure how they accomplish that. Everything has always been cooked to perfection, seasoned beautifully, plated nicely, and fresh. Service is always very friendly (sometimes a hair slow but only because there's usually only one server and the place is packed). Food comes out fairly quickly once you order and it's super fun to be able to watch them cook due to the giant glass wall in the kitchen. Place is always clean, has great lighting (you can actually see your plates), and the lot in back makes for fairly easy parking. We've been here twice close to closing and to watch them clean makes me know they take sanitation VERY seriously.
