Mandarin House

I have this delivered every time I travel to Madisonville. Everything is always hot fresh and tasty one of the better hot and sour soups that I've had. I make special request and they always get it 100% right. I feel like if you have health or dietary concerns, they would do a great job to meet your needs. Plus, just tastes great!

Delicious foodFantastic serviceBeautiful, clean placeStaff is always refilling the buffet line!

The food is very good for a buffet. Tremendous selection! Great value! Very friendly staff with prompt service. The soups are very good and there are several dessert selections including ice cream. Also a good selection of sushi with wasabi and other toppings. You can also special order from the grill at no extra charge. The ambience is lacking a bit but the restaurant is clean and organized to serve a lot of people.

Cheap eats!Mandarin house has a surprisingly large buffet selection. While the Chinese offerings on the buffet are somewhat mundane,, there are a number of less common Chinese buffet selections, including crawfish, "stuffed crab" (really more of a crabcake on a scallop shell), salmon, mussels (?) on the half shell. Everything sampled was good, especially for a buffet. my vegetarian companion ordered tofu and mixed veggies off of the menu, which was delicious and a huge portion, for $7.50. As another reviewer has said, the prices are more than reasonable. An imported beer was $3.50, for example. Our four star rating is the result of very credible food at an extremely reasonable price. We would happily return.

Passing by, ordered carry out on spur of the moment. It really hit the spot. There was even enough for great leftovers the next day.

The food was very tasty fresh and hot. They also have good service! The Restraurant is very clean and has good ambulance.

Great food and the waitress is always friendly. Sushi bar is fresh and the buffet is the largest in town.

We have now eaten here 6 times with family on some occasions, still a 5 star and the best Chinese and seafood buffet we have been to in the surrounding area!!! We drive 60 plus miles about once a month since we found this place to eat here and have only been slightly disappointed once because of low amount of sushi on that buffet side and being seated by some trashy heathens!! otherwise it's A++. It amazes me the price is so low compared to other subpar Chinese joints. They actually could raise their prices and I would still come.

Ok I am just going to touch on the Restaurant and focus on the Mongolian side of the food. Service is excellent, we all normally just drink water but our waitress came by several times to fill our glasses. Seating is comfortable the food selection is more than enough. Since this was my first time here I sampled a small amount of everything. All the dishes I tasted were good, the Chow Mein noodles were a flat style not bad but I was not a big fan of them. But since I am a big fan of Mongolian style of food I thought I would try theirs out. This is not a Mongolian Restaurant so your not going to get choice of 10 different types of sauces nor the bread nor a wide selection of meats and mass quantities of vegetable choices.However their meat is fresh not the thin flash frozen type you would normally get, there was chicken,beef,what looked like steak there might have been one more item but I just took the beef. There are just flat dishes (plates) not bowls to put your food on so spillage may be a problem. Get 2 plates if you like a lot of meat and put your veggies on another dish. The vegetable selection is not enormous but there is enough. They did have eggs and rice which I have never seen, but you can make a great fried rice or try to make an killer Egg Fo Young if your the daring type. But you might want to tell the chef what your trying to accomplish so they can try to achieve your goal and not look at you like your nuts.They offer just 3 sauces which was good enough, spicy, not so spicy and mild, I choose the middle ground and it was just fine, in fact I tend to go a bit overboard on the sauces so this kept my insanity at bay and not go nuts and ruin a meal. They apply the sauce so I did not see how it was applied as I was walking around a bit looking at the desert dishes that were nearby. They cook on a flat top and the chef sort of moved the food around teppan style if you know what I mean. He did a good job cooking the food nothing was over cooked or soggy the veggies were as they should be cooked and the meat was surprisingly tender and cooked perfectly. I like rice with my dish and there was a rice cooker nearby with white rice so I just got a plate of rice and added as needed to my meal.I will go back again and just do the Mongolian side the next time as I enjoyed it more. I think the lunch was $7.99 I was there for dinner which was a few bucks more. But if you time it right you can have a late lunch and be so full you won't want dinner, and this is much more low cal than a burger fries and a coke and healthier for that matter for about the same cost. I am sure if more people start to go this route when they walk in they may increase the veggie selection.Since this is not a full blown Mongolian grill and there are other food choices so I think your safe bringing the kids they will just have the noodles and rice anyway. You guys need to use Yelp more often the last review here was 2016. Hopes this helps.Oh and always put a buck in the tip jar just good practice. And dam I did not see the ice cream until I walked to the counter to pay the bill. If you like ice cream do not make the same mistake I did.

Fast and a wonderful selection of food. The general Tso chicken is very satisfying. And the food is always fresh.
