    Tokyo Mandarin

    Always solid. Noticed there wasn't any menu photos online and I was having trouble locating the…read moresushi items they had on site. Posted for future reference.

    PERFUNCTORY .... you can choose two definitions. One is the Oxford Oxford Languages Dictionary…read morethat states "perfunctory is an action or gesture carried out with a minimum of effort or reflection" or you just have to order take out at the Tokyo Mandarin and their service and food preparation defines perfunctory as clearly as any dictionary. I debated visiting another restaurant in this plaza but somehow sushi called as if often does so I grabbed a menu from this take-out only restaurant obviously impacted and changed by the times we live in (Once it had what appears to have been a nice limited seating dining area but now the entire place is pretty much trashed so that window service only can be provided. Their fish tank up front looks like it longs for the old days as the golden fish swim through algae colored waters.). The lunch menu offered the expected and I went for the universally common two rolls plus soup or salad. I always opt for the soup choice and chose their tuna roll and yellow tail with scallion; soup was miso. The woman upfront on the other side of the wall's approach to me as a customer gave hints of their goal to have TOKYO MANDARIN become a new definition of PERFUNCTORY in any and all published dictionaries. She acted as if she was talking once again to a wall not a human. TEN MINUTES she said in an almost inaudible tone ... oh wait it was a monotone there was no tone nor emotion nor interest. So, I return to the same dour woman who merely points to an extremely dirty credit card reader when I hold my card up in the air. I immediately feel sorry for my credit card and consider offering it a bath when we get home .... definitely spraying it. Of course no thank you but again TOKYO MANDARIN will never become a dictionary definition of perfunctory if it starts to spend time thanking customers or smiling at them or cleaning credit card readers, fish tanks, or front end counters. I did give them silent credit for putting the hot soup in a separate bag from my sushi as I carried my lunch back to my car. Drum roll for the unveiling .... by now the word perfunctory was firmly affixed in my mind so it should come as no surprise for those of you still engaged in reading this review that the soup was bland, nondescript but I could tell that it was Miso Soup not Clear Broth. The temperature was still almost hot so it had made the car ride home in ready to eat condition. And, now the sushi rolls. Two very simple rolls because after all most lunch specials at sushi or Japanese or pseudo-Japanese joints do not include their high end rolls as lunch specials. Tuna and Yellowtail (aka another tuna) with scallions. This is where perhaps the performance sinks below the perfunctory standards but I will always refer to TOKYO MANDARIN as perfunctory in the hopes that they will make Merriam's dictionary one day. For those of us who indulge in sushi and pay attention to standards of the art there are two essentials after of course freshness (You are after all eating raw food so it needs to be fresh!!!): exact cuts and perfection in the roll. TOKYO MANDARIN's sushi chef must have adopted a perfunctory (See definition at the top of this review or just say out loud TOKYO MANDARIN) approach to cutting the fish for my rolls. Perhaps he or was it the bland she who waited on me may have used a butter knife because the cuts were the exact opposite of precise and identical. Some pieces almost had a torn look to them .... if an Itamae was to spot a roll like these coming from a restaurant serving sushi I am sure he would scream to sue them for misusing the food name sushi. Perhaps he would scream out loud Ikagenna, which is Japanese for perfunctory. Sushi is to be an art not the mashing of raw fish to fit inside rice and seaweed. And as for number two ... at least half of my rolls were not sealed. They were falling open. When picked up in my chopsticks the interior consisting as noted of chopped fish and rice poured back onto my plate. When a chef does not prepare a food item to completeness what might one say about that chef? PERFUNCTORY of course or now as a reader of this you can say TOKYO MANDARIN! Now, there also were a few pieces of rice that appeared discolored in a way to indicate that they were either ancient relatives of the majority of my lunch's rice or they had at one time come in contact with some liquid on the chef's table and not properly disposed of but rather as a TOKYO MANDARIN or some might say PERFUNCTORY sushi chef they just shoved the discolored rice in with the white rice. So two stars not one. I feel a tinge of compassion due to the continued impact of COVID on restaurants. Will I go back???? Would you go back to a place that defines perfunctory? I didn't think so and neither will I.

While were there, many Chinese-speaking people came in to eat and order out, which is always a good sign. It is a no frills, non-fancy place to eat (kiosk ordering, self serve plastic utensils). We focused mostly on the noodle dishes for this trip, and want to go back to try their other dishes (many which seem to be more geared toward the American palate, e.g, General Tsao's chicken). Deep fried dough sticks (you tiao) - 5*/5, I love these and have not found dim sum places in Chinatown that serve the light, easy to tear apart version of this anywhere and Sang Kee Asian Bistro does not offer this on their otherwise wonder dim sum menu. I am SO happy to find this and will be back again and again just for these. Along with some hot, sweetened soy milk to dip them in, this will be my special treat/snack go to item at Taste of Chang'an. Hooray! Pork & Chives dumplings - 5/5, these are very good dumplings and although I like the filling I make better, I am unwilling to make my own wrappers so I can imagine ordering these for takeout in the future as an appetizer for a party. Hot & Sour soup - 4/5, good overall but could use more hot and more sour. I appreciated how the broth was actually not broth and not as gummy as some hot and sour soups can be. Changan Biangbiang Noodles - 4/5, I appreciated the hand pulled noodles but found the ratio of pork belly pieces to the amount of noodles to be too low so after eating my way half through the bowl I had only noodles left. Flavors are good, but the next day I did not want to eat my leftovers which is a sign. Pork Ribs Noodles - 4/5, my son had this and he and I agreed the pork ribs were more flavorful than the pork belly pieces in my noodles. He also had many leftover noodles with no more meat, and did not want to eat the leftovers. Sauteed Spicy Chicken Noodle - 4/5, my husband had this and it looked more like a chicken/green pepper dish on a bed of noodles. Leftovers had a good ratio of all items in the dish and I did eat these the next day for lunch. When I go back, I'd like to try their zha jiang noodles, pork buns, scallion pancakes, and their other dishes. And I am so happy to have found somewhere on the Main Line where I can pick up fresh, hot you tiao!
