The mandarin in North Bay is not the place that your minds probably all conjure up when you hear…read morethe name. When I think of the mandarin I think of buffet lines, Asian antique decor, and beautiful oriental waitresses. This is not the case in North Bay. The Manadarin in North Bay (who; how they got rights to the name still baffles me) is a locally owned and operated restaurant which has a sit-down area and also offers take-out. The food is nothing more than your typical Chinese food. I'm not sure how my Mom ever fell so deeply in love with this place since it really is nothing special. The one waitress they do have (the times I've been) is an older woman (one of the owners). Which is not any problem I'm just trying to make it clear how it differentiates from a real Mandarin restaurant. She has always been very pleasant though (I'll give her that much). The food is always good. The place is always clean. We have never had any disgusting surprises(unlike some other Chinese food places). But like I said, cliché, boring, dissimilar from what you expect out of the Mandarin name. Indifferent on whether you should make the effort to visit this place or not.

Great food, decent price, what more could I ask for?…read more My dad and I ordered their "dinner for 2" deal that went for basically $20 + tax. It was more than decently sized, as it came with two wonton soups, two spring rolls, a plate full of chicken balls, a plate of stir-fried rice, and a plate of sprouts with I believe pork. Had plenty left over to take home as all-in-all the size of the meal was massive. Drinks were extra as expected, and the pop can in pop cans for the price of $1.25 each. I'd definitely return again. This place does take-out and eat-in, and they seem to have a buffet, however the time we were there was in between lunch and dinner, so their buffet was empty. It looked pretty small, but I'm sure the price was right based on the rest of my experience with this place :-)

Compared to the "Asian" noodle dish I had at the office's cafeteria, it was glorious. Sometimes, it's all relative. Would I come back here if I find myself back in the area...yes - to get my Asian food fix. They also serve alcohol, which is a huge plus after a long day. I'm not sure which parking lot we should have parked in, but there was plenty of parking in the lot either side of the building. One lot is for a hardware store and I think the other lot is for the medical center. I was just glad to see our car was still in the hardware store lot after dinner. The place was empty when we rolled in. I think a lot of people opt for pick up or delivery since the ambiance isn't that inviting. There were plenty of tables to accommodate large groups of people. They had a chalkboard displaying display specials by the entrance to the dining area. It was a couple bucks off the usual price of the dish. I went with Thursday's special - Poon Ped with rice for $11. It was a chicken dish with onion, celery, broccoli, baby corn, and green peppers in a spicy sauce. It was spicy, but not overly spicy. The sauce was good, nothing exciting. All the veggies were fresh and crunchy. Although they have mixed drinks on the menu, they only offer wine and beer. The lady working here was very nice. Our check came with fortune cookies and Little Debbie Oatmeal Creme Pies. I thought it was a nice little end to dinner.

Tai Pan China Cafe in Mattawa is one of these places. We always like to start with a Won Ton soup. It seems to be the best measure of how much a restaurant puts into their cooking. Called Wong Ton soup at Tai Pan you will get a piping hot bowl of delicious broth with about four won tons. It is an obviously home made soup. With lots of chopped green onion and special ingredient chopped lettuce. This soup pulled up the rating of everything else. We also each had an egg roll, and shared a BBQ Pork fried rice, Hunan Beef and General Tao Chicken. We were asked if we wanted medium heat or hot. My wife answered medium. We should have ordered hot, it was a little bland for our tastes. But they were both good with lots of meat in each dish. The service was excellent, the woman serving us was in constant motion. They were making a lot of take out orders (on a Sunday night). The restaurant is old and worn but overall seemed pretty clean. We will certainly stop for this won ton soup again next time through Mattawa.

Not only was everything delicious, the service and presentation was amazing. The very polite and efficient server brought the tofu out and placed it into a cast iron serving pot with sizzling onions and poured the (delicious) sauce over it in front of us. The four of us (two Montrealers, a Sudbury guy and a North Bay girl) all turned to watch her prepare this for us. Honestly, it was one of the yummiest Chinese foods we've had, and we were so happy to get delicious vegetarian food in Temiscaming. Just great. (Also the portions were huge! We had leftovers and we even brought a growing boy!)

Asked for the woman who owns the restaurant to come out so he could show her and he started figiting with the food some more and surprise surprise another hair. She brushed it off saying it was some spice. I ain't ever seen no spice like that. Anyways, we simply asked her if he could either get a new plate or he wasn't going to be paying for that one. She refused and got hostile with him, grabbed the plate out of his hand before he could do anything and basically said get out. She is one of the rudest managers I have ever met. Most certainly wi not be going eating there again anytime soon.
