Otay Mandarin

Chula Vista staple. This hole in the wall is a gem. Nestled inside an old plaza, the food here is delicious. You can't go wrong with the salt & pepper wings, beef broccoli and chowmein. It gets packed here and I can see why. The staff is super friendly, warm and love what they do!

Best salt & pepper wings! Always delicious! So few places know how to make these. Can be an entree or a side fish with your Chinese dinner!

Prices online are outdated, and the pricing on their website is wrong. Such a waste of time, they need to update pricing so customers know up front rather than a bait and switch. Everything is double the price of their website, so you pay $20 for salted pepper wings, $20 broccoli beef, $6 for TWO EGGROLLS. Very outrageous pricing, not worth it.

Bought a party tray of chicken for a party and everyone enjoyed it! It was the first to sell out lol. I ordered through the phone and did an easy pick up.

I made a reservation over the phone for a party of 8 people for a fasting dinner event for Ramadan. They are always very patient and kind. Customer service here is very fast and don't wait to long for food even if they are busy. It's not a long wait and you get the food on the table within the 10 minutes. I usually order some vegetable soup with a lot of side items like the noodles with shrimp, beef, and chicken. The salt and pepper chicken wings is a must order. Love the seasoning they put on the chicken and always is freshly cooked . I have been coming to this location for 8 years and will keep coming back. It's very enjoying place to have a delicious Chinese food dinner highly recommend.

Food and service was great. Prices were reasonable. I'd gladly go again when I'm in town.

Decided to come here New Years Eve during dinner time. The take out line was about 40 people deep. It was crazy. Ate inside because there was no wait. The portions are huge. We got our food really fast and the service was great. The food was good too.

This place has really good mandarin Chinese food. The chicken Cantonese is delicious

I consider Otay Mandarin the Royal Mandarin of Chula Vista. This is a solid option if you're in the area. The quality and quantity of food is comparable to the best of Chinese food establishments. On a side note, I can't believe how all Chinese restaurants have raised their prices to about an average of $18.00 a plate. Inflation sucks! On this particular visit, I only ordered the salt and pepper chicken wings and Mongolian Beef. The chicken is on point. Great crispiness and spice. They don't skimp on the garlic, red pepper and crispy goodness. I really liked the Mongolian Beef as well. A must for every order. Tender beef with onion and green onion...delicious. Both dishes were filled to the rim. I love how they give you your moneys worth. I was eyeing some of the dishes being served in the restaurant as I was picking up my to-go order. All of them looked appetizing. Otay Mandarin has been a staple since I moved into the area years ago. You can't go wrong with anything you order.

Hard to find something open on new years day. Happy they were open. They have an extensive menu of chicken pork seafood and vegetables and lunch specials. So even picky eaters would be able to dine here. I settled for the sweet and sour chicken with fried rice. I think this would be a good place to order for house parties. Good options at least. Prices are reasonable and tastes pretty good.Mel MYelp 23:01
