I have been going to Mandarin Cove with my family for a very long time, and the service has always been great. The dishes are delicious and the servers are very accommodating. Some dishes we always order are the kung pao chicken, sizzling rice soup, and Mongolian beef. Although we have our "go-to" dishes, whenever we have tried something new, it has always been wonderful. They offer free parking to their customers above the restaurant, and it is right off Portland's waterfront - highly recommended!…
YUMMY!. YUMMY!!!!!!! I love that place. the service is so fast, the soup is amazing, and everything was so yummy! They even have free parking which is even better! I would really recommend the Mandarin scallops.…
One of the best I've seen so far. The service was fast. I loved the soup. It was our first time there and they made a very good impression. There was free parking if you went after 5ish. The Mandarin Scallops were awesome and so was their orange chicken.…
Best Chinese Restaurant!!.
My husband and I live in Maryland but when we are in Portland we never miss Mandarin Cove! We just love love this place! Not just the atmosphere but the food is amazing! We especially love 'Jentai
Prawn', what an incredible taste. Their 'Mandarin Scallops' are to die for. We also tried their 'Mongolian Beef 'and it was so tasty we wanted to take some home with us if we could. But what we really enjoy the most whenever we are there is their 'Sizzling Rice Soup'. I don't know why but their Sizzling Rice Soup is like no other. We have been to so many Chinese Restaurants and by far Mandarin Cove's Sizzling Rice Soup is the best we have ever had! Not even in the east coast can we find such soup with so much flavor and texture! This place is #1 by far, food, service and of-course $$ ( great price) also.Which is why we always visit Mandarin Cove whenever we are out there. My only complain is that we don't have this restaurant in Maryland and would love to ask the owner to maybe opening one up here in the east coast so everyone can have this wonderful dining experience! Thank you Mandarin Cove! We love you!! From, Julie & Chris Your #1 fan from Maryland! We"ll be back!!
P.S. Make sure you don't miss the ultimate dessert - fried ice cream, Its out of this world!!…
Big Plus: No MSG, FREE Parking for Dinner, Delicious Food.
I'm glad to have stopped by here for our last night in downtown Portland! Our friends took us here for a nice dinner. They could not stop talking about their Sizzling Soup, Mandarin Scallops and
Three Flavor Taster!!! I wanted to see what the hype was about! Everything was so perfect and delicious and this was one of the best soup that I have ever tasted! Moreover, it's their commitment to "NO MSG" which will permanently keep them from ever being authentic. Next time I go back here, I will make the same order for sure, and maybe try their Roasted Peking Duck cos it's one of my favorite Chinese dishes as well.
The service was pretty quick too. We got our food within 10 minutes which was short with the amount of people seating inside (The house was full that night).
Great food, Great prices, A Big plus for their No MSG dine in or take out and FREE Parking offer !!Don't forget to Validate, FREE parking is good for Dinner (after 5) [Always a nice Surprise in Portland area]…
