What are your hours of operation?
See individual restaurant information pages.

Can I make reservations online?
Reservations are done by calling the individual restaurant of your choice.
Is the buffet the same at all times and at all locations?
Most items are the same, but a small percentage of items vary by location because of different tastes and preferences perceived by the managers. Mandarin recognizes that patrons seek different choices in food items. As a result, menus are changed throughout the week. The items offered may also change during special promotions.

Guests at Mandarin generally wear casual or casual business attire, but some guests like to dress up when attending our restaurants for special occasions. (Tank
tops or bare feet will not be allowed in the restaurants).

Has Mandarin’s food been analyzed for allergens like nuts, gluten, corn, etc.?
