My family and I have been coming here for 20+ years. And is always a solid choice for good chinese food. The food quality has gotten better recently after raising their prices. Now the food reminds of my childhood again. The food is good, well seasoned and when asked has a good balance of protein to vegetables.

Great food at a great price. I can't believe how much food you get for the price. If I didn't know better I would think they sale by the pound! It takes me a couple days to finish my plate. I especially like the garlic chicken and add potstickers and chili oil & vinegar, I'm about to drive there right now but there not open yet I'll be going there tomorrow or this weekend. So far my favorite Chinese restaurant! Can't wait to grab some food there.

Mandarin Chicken or beef have the best taste ever!. I would recommend beef chao fen and walnut prawn too. The waiters there are super nice and handsome. I really enjoy spending time there with my friends while I work downtown San Rafael.

They may be sweet and nice but they are watering down what we pay for. I dont want my meals to include white rice but they come with it... Its a waste of food and money from customers. Its like diluting what you actually expect to get. We specifically asked for just the meals. No white rice. But they told us the white rice comes with it by default?! Thats the smartest way to get customers to pay more for less of what they expect! This place has always been hyped by kids in the past. But I do not recommend any chinese food in marin county period. The East Bay-- Oakland Chinatown is where its at. Not coming back to order ever again! Do not water down my food with white rice! Do not water down my coffee! Do not water down anything! You will lose customers and may be like the rest-- shut down!

Everyone I know that is from San Rafael including me knows where the best Chinese food comes from and this is the spot. I've been coming here since I was a kid. The OG dish is the Magnolian Beef with white rice, just wow! The food from this place just has so much flavor no wonder they have been in business for so long. Plus the lady that's been working there for years is really sweet and nice (maybe she's the owner). I've been to many Chinese restaurants and have had plenty of take out to know good Chinese. Also it's not like other Chinese restaurants where some folks are just mean . My go to for Chinese oh and bring cash because it's cash only.
Little Mandarin is one of our go to places when we don't want to cook. The dishes we order are consistently good. Thank you Alice and Denise and your entire family and crew!

No pow in kung pao chicken. In fact no spice noticeable in anything we ordered: Mongolian beef& pork. Vegetables over cooked.. don't accept credit cards. Would not recommend.

I've been going here since high school and I'm in my early 40's now. The food is so good, I always get the mongolian beef and chicken chow mein. The owner is always so nice. She would always remember my mom when she came in, even though she had moved away and hadn't been there in over a decade. I've moved to the East Bay but I always stop in when I come to Marin.
