Well I'm pretty sure most people have been to a Mandarin location in Ontario and have gorged on many of the items in it's buffet. I always wear my "buffet eating pants". Stretchy & loose. There's something for everyone; from beef, chicken, shrimps, pork, fish and weekend crab legs. I'm not going into the various styles of the items. Just know that some items are traditional & North Americanized. Prices are higher on the weekend as more seafood items are offered. The buffet has a "appetizer/ starter section; a hot soups section; a huge array of hot foods including western foods like roast beef; and of course desserts.
When Mandarin first entered the market in the 80's it was the Best thing ever!
This location is clean and the staff is very good at keeping up on clearing the dishes and are very courteous. My only complaint is the food is not as good as some of the other locations. That's why I'm giving this place a 2.5 out of 5.
