The absolute best food I have ever had! We got fried wontons, pan fried potstickers, and the Mongolian beef lunch plate. Definitely the best Mongolian beef I have ever tasted!! The staff members were so nice, the place is small but it gives it more of a home-like feel which is amazing to find in california! Also very close to the beach which is very convenient! Will definitely be back again!

A traditional Americanized Chinese restaurant located in Laguna Beach, established in 1984, it has been a local favorite for years. The lunch menu is affordable around $15 per dish which includes fried rice, fried wonton, and fried chicken wing as sides. I ordered the house special beef and it was tender, sweet and tangy. The service was pretty good. We came with a big group of ~15 people on Saturday and they sat us down in the side room so we can have our own space.

I have been going to Mandarin King since I was a kid with my family and I recently visited again for dinner. We ordered the family meal for 2 that comes with sizzling rice soup, appetizer and 2 meats & rice. It was absolutely delicious. I have zero negative things to say about this restaurant because the food was amazing, the restaurant itself is calm and inviting and every single person working there was SO friendly, kind, accommodating and just so welcoming. I can’t wait to visit my family again next year to come back and eat at Mandarin King. The only thing I would say is to give the fishies in front some plants and rocks 🙂 thank you for an amazing meal and your kindness.

This is one of our very favorite restaurants in laguna beach. We used it frequently during COVID.. my friend Nancy and I lunched there about every two weeks..food and service is excellent. Unfortunately health issues has slowed us down. Nancy is recovering. My daughter takes me on our way back from my dr. Appt in Newport Beach. We love Mandarin King. It’s run by family. Priscilla and her husband and their kids when they are on break from college. The food is delicious whatever we order. The service is A+ friendly staff.

Just amazing, very kind and friendly staff, they knew most customers by name, like friends, hugs and smiles, the food was very good, Mongolian beef and house Chow Mein are delicious. They keep the place clean and there is a relaxing ambiance overall.

Such a rare find these days… Great Chinese food! This place manages to pull it off! So much better than some of the stuff I’ve had in China Town in the big city. Everything is made fresh! And you can taste it! Can’t remember the last time I tasted a freshly julienned piece of ginger in my Chinese food. This is how Chinese food is supposed to be. Their lunch specials are great and come with fried rice, soup and a fried chicken wing. Very reasonably priced. Two people can get out of here with a lunch bill under $25. You can tell the locals love this place and the take out business was booming. The interior is a little dated but the bathrooms are clean and food is top notch. Highly recommended.
