Mandarin House in San Juan

Horrible service and rude disrespectful people run this facility. After waiting over 15 minutes to order drinks and our food the server didnt provide water or the drinks for over 30 minutes. Even after ordering they waited over 10 minutes to tell us some things arent available right now. HORRIBLE SERVICE

Their crab Rangoon was fresh and tasty...The staff was sweet and kind. She modified the regular Mapo tofu which normally includes pork to make it vegetarian friendly..

Excellent customer servicelove their foodRecommended

Open late, great combo platter, and a nice spot for a quick bite to eat. Chinese joints in Puerto Rico carry a different flavor so if you’re a tourist don’t be expecting the same thing as where you’re from.

Excellent food , prices and service, one of the best in Condado

The Best Hot and Sour ever!

Horrible horrible service! I’m vegan and asked for fried rice without egg repeatedly but was still brought rice with eggs. When I let the waitress know she got extremely upset and started speaking in a condescending manner as well as ranting in her language. I ended up just getting the bill for the 2 spring rolls I had and left. Never going back & wouldn’t recommend.

The staff is very nice and its in a great location .. the food didn’t have much flavor very bland . I think the building could be nicer in the inside it didn’t look that clean I took my order to go I did the chicken and broc and the chicken fried rice

Affordable standard Chinese, good if you had enough of heavy and thick mofongo and need some rice for a change.

Despite the place often looking empty ironically their food is actually Really Good!! As good if not better that neighboring Chinese restaurants. Dont be swayed by the look, the food is great. This from a new Yorker. We know our Chinese food.

It’s a very authentic Chinese restaurant. Really good!!! Not sure why it ranked low before, but I highly recommend.

Perfect place for a takeout. The staff has problem understanding english, and might need you to repeat your order several times

Food was good, staff was very attentive.

Completely horrible service hair in my food and then they yelled at me the whole time because they couldn’t manipulate The receipts food was discussing what a waste of time in space in Puerto Rico

(DISCLAIMER I DIDNT PURCHASE ANYFOOD)I quickly stopped by to ask for a few packets of soy sauce. Which I offered to pay for upfront, but all I got was two rude NOs. I’m not sure if they don’t have packets or refuse to serve anyone who hasn’t purchased food but damn it was an icy experience.

We were out and the only place that was empty at peak business hours was this one. Now I know why. Didnt look very clean and the server could barely speak English or Spanish. Then they brought us the food which in my case was teriyaki chicken with fried rice. The rice was absolutely horrible, tasting old and brittle. The chicken was even worse, as one of the vegetables on it had a price sticker still stuck to it. Thats without counting all the awkward stares from the staff that was looking at us for not eating the food.

The service is not that good😑, the waitresses were constantly starting and their attitude was a little rude. As for the food, it’s not so bad. Tasted pretty good ngl.

This place is amazing. Authentic food. Every time my husband and I come on vacation we come and buy food here. Amazing

Food is cheap and decent - so it’s a solid 2/5. We were in a pinch for a late dinner and this place worked well for that but I would not go back if there are other options around given the quality of the food, service and decor. That said, if nothing else is open and you need dinner - this is a good option.

I have to say that I do agree with some of the reviews in here. We were the only customers in the restaurant. Place doesn’t seem to be very clean. Waitress was not friendly at all. No music in the restaurant. While eating the two waitresses would be standing really close to your table and stare. Made my whole family uncomfortable. I really do understand is why the place is empty with no customer. Overall food was good but would not be back.

I got rice and chicken and the rice and veggie rolls. The rice was a bit undercooked but the chicken and rolls were delicious. As we were sitting in the restaurant there was a dried up sponge sitting in the self like three inches away from my face. I recommend being more sanitary and not leaving cleaning supplies where the customers eat. Other than that it was fine.

I got the chicken and rice combo with house fried rice and French fires and the 2 pc chicken wing combo with fries. It was delicious. I also got an iced tea which was very good. Great prices great portions!

Great service and amazing food. The orange chicken combo was the favorite at the table.

Older woman waitress who clearly doesnt like people and has some of the worst manners / customer service Ive ever seen. She had on a uniform that clearly hadnt been cleaned in days. We were the only customers to come in and it was very clear why this place was empty. Thank God the lady behind the sushi bar was clean or I would have had to walk out. The waitress unfortunately should be swapped out with a younger person who really needs the experience and may actually like thier job.

Very unwelcoming, server had major attitude, dishes were dirty. The sushi roll avocado cucumber was excellent, the baked salmon was also excellent. So food is 4.5 Las Vegas is better and it is not even next to the Ocean. Service 1-1.5. So I give it a 2 star.

Average yet flavorful menu but at a cost above what one would get anywhere else.

A bug was found in the drink and it very bad service. The drinks were tangy and the chicken was salty. I don’t recommend going unless you want horrible food and service.

Food was very bland. Customer service was not great at all. I wouldn’t come back.

Easily the most authentic Cantonese restaurant in the San Juan metropolitan area. Tasty dim sum. Huge portions and great overall value. Extensive menu options might be a little intimidating but do not hesitate to ask the friendly servers for assistance

Very empty, but service is quick and decent selection menu viewed from the street. Even has dim sum choices.

Unfortunately not a good experience. Starting from dirty everything all around to tasteless, dry food, weird teriyaki sauce, and (I assumeowners constantly staring at you. I felt like it was the worst restaurant experience I’ve had so far.

Awesome and authentic Chinese food.Came here two days and been having PR foods, but we were very craving for some authentic chiense/Canton food. Found this place, and we were all satisfied! 中国胃还是吃这些比较下的了口。

We ordered from here since it’s across from our hotel. Bad decision. The food here is gross.. the beef & egg rolls taste like they went bad. The fried rice is ok but definitely you can get better food on the strip. Everything else was absolutely Disgusting. The Rolls were hot & tasted like they had been sitting all day. Do not waste your money. Not worth it. Should have known better-10:30pm on a Saturday night & the place was completely empty when I walked in. Gross. Gross. Gross..

Tastes funny...chicken tastes like its been marinated in something. Maybe to lengthen life? We got 2 chicken dishes and both tasted funny. Almost like it was fish... Fried rice was good tho. Prices are reasonable.

I had amarillos sushi and piña colada. Food was great, service was ok. Waitress talked in an extremely low volume and the cook was the same. Maybe Im deaf or something. It was a nice experience except having to watch the waitress staring at us the whole time while we were eating, very awkward, I wanted to leave so badly. I thought I wasnt eating sushi the way Asians do or something but no, she just stayed staring the whole time. As soon as we finished she brought the paycheck, its like she was telling us to leave. It was very uncomfortable. Anyways, next time Ill just order in advance and eat it somewhere else. P.S. If you like Chinese soap operas then stay and eat, focus on them and not on the waitress.P.S.#2: Check the pictures of other people who have posted pics of this place, youll see the waitress staring at the camera in one of them. For real!I was gonna give this place 5 stars but the waitress was just too damn awkward, she even looked mad. Shes nice though. 😊

I love that its mostly empty most times but I guess its not good for their business. Its quiet and the vegan sushi is great. I was told that waiters were staring at us while we ate but I didnt notice and enjoyed my dinner anyways.

Ok service terrible food. Warm sushi rolls Japanese fried fish seemed like frozen microwave fish! Totally disappointed and who serves French fries with fried rice!

The cuisine is Cantonese style and food there is fresh and delicious. One thing I wanna say is that the staff there are very friendly. The man there are very helpful.👍He gave us some local information and useful Suggestions. Really a accommodating person!

This was right across from our hotel so we decided to give it a shot. Needless to say, don’t. The first sign should of been that we were the only people in there at noon on a Friday. Prices are absurdly high. I had beef and broccoli with the house fried rice and it was practically inedible. The fried rice was burnt and tasted disgusting. The beef was possibly not even beef but rather a series of rubber bands melted together. No flavor and an incredibly cringe-y texture. Oh and they just throw a side of fries in there too. $30 wasted so don’t bother.

Decent Chinese-American food + sushi at expensive, tourist prices. Great, friendly service. The inexpensive menu posted outside does not match the menu inside. Ask for the combo menu for a sparse selection of lunch and dinner combos.Hot and sour soup was tasty, the broth not too thick, and filled with goodies; mu shoo pork was incredibly tender and had good flavor; house fried rice was bland.

Food was good except for the onion soup. Host was great and accommodating. Not the prettiest but food was good.

Overpriced standard menu, meal specials posted on window but not included in the menu. Sushi rice was warm. Rolls tasted terrible-even the California roll. How do you mess up something with 3 ingredients?! Orange chicken was not orange- its a sugary syrup. No free refills on drinks, found that one out on the bill but was not informed ahead of time that we were paying $2.75 per soda can. Automatically adds a 15% tip to bill even when your dinimg party is 2, which is non adjustable and way too much considering you will only see your server 3 times during your visit: to place your order, to get the food, and to collect the check unless you count the time that the server stands by the exit watching and waiting for you to rush through your meal. Dont waste your time or money- I love Chinese food and sushi but this one is worth 0 stars. Too bad google reviews wont let me go that low.

I ordered via phone and when I walked in to pick up my order I was seriously alarmed as there was only one table seated and the waiter was playing on his cell phone when other businesses had waiting lines. The Orange Chicken wasnt the worst I have had but it was close, no orange flavor at all. I had to let the Hot & Sour soup sit open for 20 minutes before it cooled off enough to taste it. It was the exact same flavor as the Orange Chicken and they use canned mushrooms (very easy to tell).

This place was horrible and the waiter stared at us the whole time and I felt so uncomfortable every time I would take a bite she would be staring at me. The food was so overpriced for the quality, the chicken tasted like I was eating bubble gum it was so chewy. Highly do not recommend this place!!!!

This place was horrible!! It cost way to much and the creepy lady watching me eat in the door way was the weirdest thing ever. I think she was our waitress but I couldnt tell because she only came by the table about two times.

Soup and Dumplings were top notch.Kung Pao chicken not so much.Service is a little slow.Restaurant is a little outdated, needs a little TLC.

The food was amazing and pretty unexpensive. Friendly service and food was ready fast!! Love it and will come again.

Food was mediocre prices were extremely expensive! Worst sushi Ive ever had. We ordered two rolls (mostly rice and had a burnt tasteboth $16 and beef broccoli (beef was chewy and had no flavorwhich was $20. Our bill was $65 plus they add gratuity already on the bill (just 2 people!!Will never go back! Horrible Horrible Horrible!!!

Its okStopped in as it was a blackout so they had power from a generator... They were quick to seat us the place was ok.. Had an Old feeling to the place though,the staff were kind... There food was average nothing spectacular but ok not bad, but not awesome either... The bathroom was ok and clean. Have passed here on many occasions during previous trips but never came in... Only this time because of the black out. The food was reasonably priced for what the portions are.

I just moved from southern China where I lived for two years. Until now I was unable to find any restaurant that compared to the freshness and deliciousness I experienced there. The service was impeccable, and the food more than satisfying. This is now my go to Chinese restaurant experience, I hope its here to stay!Try the steamed fun ngor, my absolute favorite from the dim sum menu!
