I've been a loyal customer of Mandarin Beijing for quite some time now, and I have to say, they never disappoint! The food quality is consistently excellent, which keeps me coming back time and time again. The customer service is top-notch as well. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and eager to ensure a pleasant dining experience.Now, let's talk about the food. The salt pepper wings are an absolute must-try! They're crispy, flavorful, and addictively delicious. It's my go-to appetizer every time I visit.Recently, I decided to venture out of my comfort zone and try the mabo tofu, and I'm so glad I did! It was out of this world--spicy, savory, and packed with flavor. I've decided that it's going to be a regular order for me from now on.And if that's not enough, my wife absolutely loves the eggplant dish here. It's cooked to perfection and always leaves her satisfied.

Wanted to try this spot out as we was looking for a new Chinese place in Chula Vista. This is how I rate places:1 Star : Big mistake, never coming back 2 Star : Decent but won't come back. Don't recommend3 Star : If we crave this type of food and are in the area, we will most likely eat here.4 Star : Gonna come back and recommend. Would drive if within 15-20 min away5 Star : Will drive out 30+ min to this spot. Would recommend to friends. Will visit once a month Back to this Chinese spot. Not coming back. All good was edible but lacked any flavor. Orange chicken. Bland. No flavor, literally the Costco orange chicken is way better. 2 starsFried Rice. This was probably the best out of all the plates we ordered BUT still lacked much flavor, I would stay maybe 3 stars. Compared to the Chinese spot next to the college, this place is lacking tasteSweat & Sour Chicken. Looked promising but still bland. Not sure if they ran out of seasoning or what. The Sushi House off telegraph has better Sweat & Sour chicken . 2 starsChicken and Broccoli. It's hard to screw this one up. But yet, this place still made it bland. But maybe 2.5 stars. Overall, will not come back and don't recommend. The search continues for a new Chinese spot.

My family and I love this place. Excellent service every time (the owner? guy who always at the register - knows and recognizes my husband every time he comes in to pick up at this point) and salt and pepper chicken wings are always fire!My two little boys also love the cream cheese wontons, and you really can't go wrong with anything you order from here. We've dined in and have taken to-go orders multiple times over the last couple years and we've never been disappointed. They've catered my 1-year-old's birthday party and were a huge hit, and we always change up our order because they have an extensive menu with a lot to offer. The salt and pepper shrimp is so, so good (this is actually my favorite) because they offer it de-shelled, and unlike some other places, they don't skimp out on the shrimp and fill the party tray with lettuce on the bottom to make it look like they gave you more. So we love this place, we are repeat customers, and will be as long as they stay open!

Best place ever to order your Chinese favorites! I have been to almost all Chinese restaurants in San Diego and this is my favorite go to. Kien gives 5-star service knows my go to order when I walk in or just by the sound of my voice on the phone since I have been getting my salt & pepper shrimp and salt & pepper green beans here for over a decade. The salt & pepper chicken is also delicious! Service is always great, waiters are attentive and quick. Ambiance is super relax and clean. I couldn't post my salt & pepper shrimp dish since I devoured that pretty quick.

My favorite spot for salt and pepper chicken. Wish I could take pictures of the chicken but I always devour them before I think of it. Dine in or pick up no delivery.

I was pleasantly surprised, great tasting food. A lighter taste than most Chinese food places, the fried green beans are a must, big portions at a good price.

Best Chinese-American restaurant in Chula. You WILL over order and it's okay because (1) the food is so good, (2) you want to try multiple dishes, and (3) leftovers! My main selections are always the house special beef, the Beijing duck (half -- always order an extra serving of the bao buns), and any vegetable. I don't even like vegetables but they do some magic voodoo Santeria thing and it's deeeelicious. They're always busy. Definitely go hungry.

5 stars!!! Mandarin Beijing in Chula Vista is a gem among the few good options we have in the area. If you're looking for consistency in your Chinese food, then this should be your go-to spot. Their salt and pepper chicken wings are absolutely phenomenal and a must-try. This time, I decided to add an order of their house fried rice and house chow mein, and they did not disappoint. The portions are generous, with huge pieces of shrimp in the fried rice, just the way I like it. They pack your takeout orders to the brink, ensuring you get your money's worth.The food was on point as always! For your Chinese food fix, come to Mandarin Beijing. You won't regret
