As usual mandarin did not fail to live up to my standards. The selection wide and all delicious it s the perfect place for a cozy meal that everyone can enjoy. We came for a birthday and enjoyed the community type environment you feel at mandarin. Our lovely waitress Lanie took extra care of us and made our experience pleasurable and smooth. She took extra length to make it a very kid friendly environment! She sang a birthday song and we were pleased to see everyone join in along with us! Overall a great time! Parking: For the lunch hours the parking lot was fairly empty and accessible.

Impromptu family dinner at Mandarin Kanata. We were very happy with the exceptional customer service from Lanie. She was friendly and asking if we were content. Special anniversary drinks were delicious and the food was fresh and delicious too.
