Mandarin am großen Saatner in Hildesheim

Super dear waiter, great food (Peking duck) - even with an explanation! We'd love to come back!

Delicious food and drinks at fair prices. The young staff is extremely friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is modern and appealing. You feel comfortable here! Went to the Mandarin again after a long time and were just as enthusiastic as before! I would like to point out once again the top price-performance ratio given the large portions! My tip as a starter is the tomato soup!

A very pleasant evening in a cozy atmosphere… the food was, as always, very tasty.

If you don't want to eat in "peace" it's okay, otherwise it's too loud. The staff is very friendly.

Unfortunately we had to wait an hour for our food. The service was hardly visible, so you couldn't even order drinks. The tea came without a teacup. We also had to request this. Then it was very loud. You could hardly have a conversation. The wine I ordered wasn't the right one either. And the bill only came after 20 minutes. When we received it after 15 minutes. Demanded again. Unfortunately, it was an absolute disaster overall. The three of us had time to clear, clean and prepare a table. Sorry, next time we'll go somewhere else.

Yes...it's nice there. Good portions. So if you don't get enough there, it's your own fault

We have been here for many years and have never been disappointed!!!

Great restaurant, good food and friendly service, we would love to come back

Very nice restaurant and very tasty food. We'd love to come back😃

Super tasty food with good and friendly service. We'd love to come back!

Unfortunately it took a long time to get the starter. Service tries very hard to make up for it. Ultimately, the wait was worth it. It tasted very good.

We were greeted and seated very friendly. Unfortunately no dish or aperitif was recommended. The restaurant is a bit cold and the service was severely overwhelmed due to the reservation situation. Drinks were forgotten, even at the neighboring tables. The dishes lacked Chinese authenticity and the duck was a little dry. The dessert, the baked banana, was still unripe and quite firm. The service team apologized sincerely, but the first impression remains.

What can I say? Here you will find, in typical German fashion, complete overwhelm and incompetent staff. The service was friendly at all times but completely overwhelmed. We waited 1h40min for food. Some tables already received their food even though they arrived after us. After asking several times and finally being more assertive, the food finally arrived. It was forgotten. We were offered drinks to make up for it, but it ruined the entire atmosphere. We will refrain from eating there in the future. Disaster! However, the food was very tasty. 5 minutes later we would have left.

Great service, smooth process and excellent quality of food for a group of 18 people. The Family & Friends Menu was a perfect fit, it's nice that there is a separate room for such occasions.

Food and service were top notch! Price for the food is completely okay. Drinks slightly overpriced. The only drawback: It was a bit cold and pulled. Definitely again and next time please close the entrance door when the temperature is below zero. There is still plenty to try from the extensive menu.

The food was excellent, the service was very friendly. Unfortunately it was very cold there at 12 noon.

It was once again a feast for the senses. If we want to do something particularly good for ourselves, we go to Mandarin!

I've eaten there several times now and it's always delicious. The service is very friendly and attentive. I always enjoy coming back to eat

Nice staff. Plenty of food. Furnishings very comfortable. Were very satisfied

We had arranged to meet for a family dinner. My siblings didn't know the restaurant yet and were totally thrilled. Both the service (very nice waiter), the food and the ambience made for a successful evening.

The food was once again excellent. We had the Classic Menu for 2 people. The quality is very good. The staff attentive and super friendly. We'll definitely be back.

Super delicious food in beautiful surroundings with very good service!

Very tasty food, large portions. Service very friendly and attentive. Nice atmosphere. We will definitely come back.

Large portions with good taste and good quality at good prices

Great staff. Great food. Greeting

Super delicious food, highly recommended!

We went home full and very satisfied. Extra requests are always catered for here. The service was very attentive without being intrusive. The food was great, enough sauce, crunchy vegetables, juicy meat, very seasoned. A pleasure. We also accept the price as such.

Once again very friendly and very tasty. Cool operation, very good service and lots of delicious food.

As always, it was a successful evening at Mandarin, great Chinese food that was second to none, friendly, warm staff and a great ambience. We are always happy to come to you.

Always friendly and cheerful staff, despite the very warm weather as always BOMB!!!!!!

The friendly welcome and the support throughout the evening always make the stay a wonderful experience. The food was excellent again and we look forward to our next visit!

We really enjoyed it again! Food: delicious!!! It may be worth choosing the small portion instead of the normal one: this way the starter and dessert fit together 🙈 The portions are real and the selection is large

Not your typical, traditional Asian restaurant. Modern and atmospherically nice furnishings. Very friendly staff. Dim sum were tasty, but not as expected. More like filled balls. For 5 stars, some work would have to be done on the delicacy of the food, which is almost expected given the beautiful ambience. Good wine selection.

We ordered Peking duck. Peking duck must be ordered a day in advance. The food was very good. It's always an experience. We would like to thank you for the nice hours in the Mandarin.

We (4 people) had dinner on Wednesday, November 27th, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. - a table was pre-booked via the homepage. When we arrived there were only a few tables occupied due to the early hour. We were warmly greeted by the staff and shown to our table. Although the restaurant was hardly busy at the time, it took 15 minutes for the waiter to come with the menus and take our drink order. It then took another 20 minutes until we received the drinks. After we placed our food order, we had to wait for a very long time again - after 15 minutes, each person was given a “greeting from the kitchen” in the form of a samosa (which was very nice and tasty); Another 20 minutes later, the starters (chicken soup, samosas & spring rolls with a very tasty sweet/sour, slightly spicy dip were served warm (with large pieces of pineapple, bamboo); then we waited again for almost 30 minutes for the main courses (3x duck with Hennessy -chanterelle cream sauce, 1x duck with 8 treasures). The food overall was very good - everything was hot, really freshly prepared and very tasty. During our stay the restaurant filled up so that by the time we left around 8:30pm it was about 3/4 full - which I find very surprising for a wet and cold Wednesday evening in late November. This speaks for the quality of the food and the restaurant. The waiters were very unobtrusive, friendly, helpful (good advice on choosing food and drinks) and nice. It was a bit cold and drafty where we sat. When I asked the waiter about it, he immediately checked and adjusted the heating so that it became pleasantly warm shortly afterwards. Overall, it is a young team that runs a modern and contemporary Chinese restaurant - this is reflected not only in the menu and the arrangement of the plates, but also in the design and decoration of the guest rooms. Conclusion: The Mandarin is a modern Chinese restaurant where most of the dishes are really fresh and prepared a'la minute. The price/performance ratio is consistent and fairly calculated. You can spend a lovely evening there alone, as a couple or with a larger group - table reservations are recommended. The only negative was the long waiting times. We will definitely come back.

A nice and relaxing evening with good food.

The food tasted very good. We stuck with the traditional Chinese dishes offered, but the kitchen also offers other Asian dishes. Although the restaurant was almost full, there was a pleasant atmosphere and the service was very courteous. I can only recommend the Mandarin.

From the welcome to the great service to the delicious food, it was once again a lovely evening at the Mandarin. We'll be back soon.

Not quite like it used to be. The prices in particular have now become very high.

The restaurant offers a great atmosphere and the staff is very attentive and forward-looking. You feel very comfortable there. The most important thing and also the highlight is the food. The quality and taste of the dishes is phenomenal. My absolute favorite restaurant. Thank you for the great time every time with you!

Very nice staff and delicious food. We felt very comfortable. We were a bit cold.

Tasteful furnishings, service is really nice. But, a lot of people and very little parking space. Guys, I wish you bigger buildings and big parking lot!

Had dinner for two yesterday. It tasted very good. We would love to come back. Very good service and it was very cozy, a good reason to repeat. 👍👍👍🍀😉

That was worth a visit. Not that typical Asian restaurant with questionable quality. Here you get top quality, top taste and great service. This was also noticeable because there were many regular customers there We'll be back

Friendly staff, food served quickly. With a normal portion, enough to really fill you up. Minimal deduction, due to the sauce on the plate, which was mild to spicy depending on the position on the plate. We would like to come back.

Service very warm and super nice. Food was excellent. Really recommended.

We really liked it and it tasted great too. You're doing great! Keep it up!

Best Asian restaurant in the Hildesheim area!

Very courteous service! Quality top!

Too expensive. No Chinese atmosphere. Parking spaces inadequate. For every bit of additional payments.

Really delicious food, nice atmosphere, good service! Highly recommended!

The best Asian guy I've been to so far! The ambience, cleanliness and service were very promising but the food topped everything! The selection on the menu goes beyond the standard dishes and what we ate was simply brilliant in taste and quality and worth the price. Absolute 5 stars 😊👍

Service was friendly, food was tasty and plentiful, prices were reasonable - recommended!!!

The food was plentiful and tasty. Would love to eat there again and again.

Best Chinese in Hildesheim. No matter what is ordered, I have not received any complaints from my family so far. 😊 Service and prices are both absolutely fine. Recommendation from me 👍🏼

Very hospitable, absolutely delicious food, highly recommended. We will definitely be back.

Delicious food, nice service, everything good and would be happy again.

How nice that the Chinese restaurant on Großer Saatner, which has been around for decades, is still family-owned. The portions are noticeably generous and very good value for money. We felt very comfortable and always enjoy coming here, even after moving to another city.

This was the second time we were there and the food was all very good. The food was delicious, the service was always attentive and even though it was busy it was pretty quick. There are many choices for dishes and drinks. We will come back.

As always, it was very good here at the Mandarin. We love coming here several times a year. The new menu has turned out very well. The food was, as always, very good. However, today I didn't like the fact that there were several dogs, including large ones, in the dining room. Anyone can have dogs, but you have to take them to the restaurant for 1-2 hours. I find it very unhygienic, for example when they shake out their fur. Maybe we could think about that.

Very nice restaurant, super delicious food. Wasn't there for the first time and would love to come back. The food came quickly, the service was very nice.

The two duck dishes tasted rather bland. The soup, on the other hand, was good.

Very good food, friendly service, nice atmosphere, everything exemplary!!!

Accidentally made a reservation at this restaurant and didn't regret it at all! There is a choice between large and small portions, which I was unsure about at first. Is big too much and small too little? Yes, big is a big portion but they pack the food for you without any problems. Super great service and the food was SOOO delicious! Will definitely come back!

Actually great recipes but unfortunately totally bad and “German”. Unfortunately, price for performance is not appropriate. There is definitely more! Very nice service but still a very loud restaurant.

Today we were able to enjoy another tasty dinner at Mandarin. Delicious, freshly prepared food, very friendly service, it couldn't be better 👍👍🤗

It's been a long time since I felt like a welcome guest. All the staff were very friendly. The food is of excellent quality and without a long wait. In short, perfect quality with an all-round great feeling of being in good hands.

Food very tasty and first class service.

Everything was great as always, the food was delicious, the service was friendly and on point. Special requests are no problem at all!!!

As always, the food was very tasty, as was the attentiveness of the kitchen.

I was there for the first time on Saturday. The staff was very friendly. I was probably unlucky because the cook was sick. The duck was fried until crispy, but unfortunately it wasn't seasoned. The sauce looked and tasted like brown water. It was all over my meal Not a crumb of salt or other seasoning. So I was disappointed with the food for the price.

Everything was great as always!

Nice service, fast service, delicious food!!! We like to drive 40 km to eat!!!

Very nice atmosphere with the aquarium. Great service.

There is very tasty Asian food, apart from the all you can eat buffet

Good food, good quantity, very friendly staff

Attractive atmosphere, good service, sweet and sour duck delicious

Great team, very friendly and very tasty food 😊

Attentive service, very tasty food.

As always, very good food and friendly service. I have been a regular guest for several years and appreciate the friendliness and the very good food

Chinese variety, fresh, different, very good

By far the best restaurant in Hildesheim! Friendly staff and very good food, I'll come back every time!💕👍🏼

The food was very disappointing for us and the prices are outrageous for this quality. We definitely won't visit the Mandarin a second time and can't recommend it. Sorry.

The food was very tasty and freshly prepared. I can only recommend the Mandarin.

Was very good. The price is on the higher end but it still fits. Very fresh vegetables good ingredients. It didn't look like much, but that's deceptive. We didn't even manage to get the rice. The offering is changing and new things are being tried out, so it's not a run-of-the-mill Asian restaurant. I found the drinks a bit overpriced. There was a little more going on than the service could manage in a timely manner. There was a greeting from the kitchen. All in all a positive experience.

We have been eating here relatively regularly on special occasions for over 10 years now and have never been disappointed! Service, quality of food and drinks and whether you sit inside or outside... top! Addendum from July 18, 2024.... Dear Mandarin team, tonight was absolute nonsense!!! And as you seem to have written more often recently: "You can do that (or you used to be able to do it) much better!!! After more than an hour and a half we drove back without eating our dinner and were extremely disappointed. Unfortunately you have lost us as guests!

Food freshly prepared, service attentive and friendly, large portions, we'll be back!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mandarin Restaurant and it was an outstanding experience! I was particularly impressed by the Peking duck, which was perfectly prepared and served. The skin was crispy, the meat tender and juicy – ​​simply a culinary delight. The service was equally excellent. The staff were very attentive, friendly and made sure we felt completely comfortable. The atmosphere in the restaurant is pleasant and welcoming, ideal for both a leisurely dinner and special occasions.

The restaurant has been completely redesigned and has given it a new, great look The food is very good, very good quality. The prices are slightly higher

Unbeatable food and first class service!!! But it also has its price Outside could be a bit more decoration for the ambience

Very tasty fresh food, attentive and very friendly staff, cozy atmosphere. We had a lovely evening.

Reservation went very well. The food was delicious. It's nice that there are also smaller portions. Unfortunately it took a very long time, so the child had already drunk almost enough

One of my favorite restaurants. I recommend the menus!

The Aperol Sprit was watery. This still needs improvement

The food was simply amazing👍...we had to wait a bit long, it felt like it was just because we were hungry, the atmosphere was very nice, the service was great👍

Food is great and has quality Service is nice and competent

As always. Great service and delicious food 😄

Very nice restaurant, and very tasty food with a surprisingly modern menu. Portions are huge, if you want the rest can be packed into a box to take away. Fine. We will come more often now. And it's best to make a reservation.

THE best Chinese restaurant in Hildesheim. Sit well, eat very well and great service. Simply great!

I have known the restaurant for over 25 years and always enjoy eating there. Really delicious and sometimes unusual Asian dishes with great service. There's still a bit of room for improvement in the ambience, but it's still 4 stars and if the food & service each have 5 stars and the ambience "only" 4, then it's still 5 stars overall. ;)
