| - Not my favorite Mandarin location, but Mandarin is absolutely the best of the Chinese buffets in Toronto.
Price is high but so is the quality, keeping in mind this is a buffet, and you should never take the last spoonful of anything from a nearly empty tray, and focus on the freshly-filled dishes.
Some faves include the prime rib, crab legs (cold better than hot), spicy chicken, bbq pork ribs, wings, dimsum, fried fish w Tartar, scallop cutlets, the hot waffles with strawberries and whipped cream, the macaroons, and the creme brulee for dessert.
I find that if you want a big feast and to please a large group of people, Mandarin is the sort of place that some of your guests will find fancy and exciting, and those with more refined palates who don't, won't hate it. So it's always a safe bet.
As Chinese mega-buffets go, Mandarin is a good one.
