"We normally go to a very good Chinese restaurant in Benowa, but last week I was having a chat with one of our customers who asked me if we'd ever tried the Mandarin Inn. Obviously I replied it's 15 minutes from Benowa Waters and we love the food at our local Chinese restaurant. He said that he was sure that the Mandarin Inn would be just as good if not better and compared to what we pay in Benowa it would be considerably less. So this afternoon I asked my wife and daughter if they're up for trying a new restaurant that was only 15 minutes from Benowa Waters and the response was a solid yes. When we arrived it was around 730pm and to be honest there was only a couple of tables occupied and I said to my wife and daughter that we were about to experience one of 3 things, either the food was not tasty and fresh or the food was delicious but very small portions for the low price or were in for a great meal at the right price. And boy was that right, every dish we tried was delicious and delectable, not only that the portions sizes of the mains were absolutely fantastic. We had the prawn cutlets and chicken satay sticks with peanut sauce and then proceeded to enjoy the sizzling beef with onions and capsicums, the beef was so tender. We also ordered the salt and pepper king prawns which were crispy and fresh, and we also had the crispy skin chicken which came with the 5 flavour spice that you sprinkle on the chicken before it melts in your mouth. The special fried rice was fresh and full of prawns omelette and ham and my wife and daughter had the steamed rice. We arrived without a booking, being a Monday night we assumed it wasn't necessary, we were immediately welcomed by Sam the manager who explained the specials of the day and turned out to be a wonderful man with 30 years plus experience in the restaurant industry, he was very helpful and polite. We eventually met the owner Danny as he popped outside to visit his guests. In short this review really does prove that living in a wealthier area does not mean better cuisine or service, quite the contrary sometimes going a little out of your area and receive excellent customer service like the good old days and enjoy delicious food for 30% less than you've been paying. We were so full they packed us a few doggy bags to take home, we will definitely be back"

"A great Chinese restaurant. The night we went was extremely busy which made it very noisy and hard to hear what we were trying to say to each other. The 3 young waiters/ waitress were fabulous in the way they handled the customers and all the orders coming in. The place was packed out which is always a good sign of a good restaurant. The food was very nice, well priced, and plenty of it for for of us to share. We will definitely be going back."

"Had dinner with some friends food was amazing. Our fav Chinese restaurant now"

"We had a lovely evening last night. It was a special occasion for us personally and not only did we love the food, (some of the best Chinese food we’ve ever had) and we’re fussy but the atmosphere out side with a nice breeze and fairy light was really lovely. The meal portions were very good for the reasonable price. But what stood out the most was our waitress Ava. She’s 17 and her attitude and beautiful personality made our time there so enjoyable. There’s nothing better than getting great customer service which I feel is rare these days. She really deserves a shout out and is the best waitress I’ve come across in years. Thank you Ava for your vibrant and happy attitude. It makes a difference to people’s dining experience. You’re appreciated and people notice. Please don’t change."

"Nice simple place to have a good meal. Good choices. Reasonable prices."
