Among the best options for great Chinese in Westchester. You will likely need to wait during peak times (would you believe we waited 20 mins for a table on a Tuesday night!), but it's worth it. Hot & sour soup was spicy yumminess, General Tso chicken was light and crispy, and the garlic pepper shrimp was fresh and delicious. The scallion pancakes are great too!

Very pleasantly surprised at the delicious meal we had at O Mandarin, in white plains. I found this spot through good yelp reviews and decided to stop by for lunch. I was a bit sad that they did not have the lunch special menu, which I did see in other reviews as being available on Sundays too. However that is not the case lunch specials menu only for weekdays. When we walked in, the decor is very nice. The service was quick and attentive and oh the food came out lightning speed! I was so surprised. However I learned from our server that today was a slow day and that usually on a typical Sunday lunch there would be a 40+ min wait! I was shocked! albeit the restaurant was very full. We ordered the Dan Dan noodles to start, which was so spicy it made me numb. I would not order this again. And then we ordered the eggplant, basil chicken and the thousand tofu layer. I asked for all the dishes to be no/ low spicy. Which they were able to for the mains. But not for the Dan dan noodles which numb my tongue! Overall great service. No lunch menus on the weekends, portions are large and had to take home. Good flavors and lightning speed food arrival !

Went here today for their lunch special after hearing good reviews. Truly beautiful interior and excellent service - about half full at lunch today. Stand out dish was the Wild Pepper Beef (can have Chicken or Shrimp also) - Was noted as very spicy - did not find the spice level hot at all. Smoky flavor and was really different. Also had the Kung Pao Chicken - excellent as well. Won Ton soup was very good also. Strongly recommend - a real winner!

Our first time at this restaurant! We had made a reservation and were seated right away. Most of the tables were filled upon arrival. Our waiter was lovely and very knowledgeable! We had a corner table, which was a tad dark, but otherwise fine. We requested the dim sum to be brought out first for the app. We asked for the pineapple fried rice to be brought out with the main dishes. When it wasn't, we were told it's made by a different department. It was delivered approximately 10 minutes after the main dishes were served. Next time, we will ask for it to be delivered earlier with the apps. I love that you can have any lunch special turned into a dinner dish!! Highly recommend the eggplant & general tsos chicken! We will be back!

I almost want to rate O Mandarin lower because of the well-known, peer-reviewed theory by Freddie Wong that the best Chinese restaurants have 3.5 stars (https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYG5yt51/) but I can't because O Mandarin is just too good!! And also, I did take out so I can't comment on the service. It's been a while since I've ordered Chinese food because normally I'm disappointed but not this time. If you order one thing it's gotta be the eggplant. It's so flavorful I could eat an entire bowl of it (and if it weren't for sharing it with others, I could have because the portions are generous!) The thousand layer tofu was also delicious and unique (to me). Seemed similar to Aburage- a Japanese tofu preparation with thinly sliced fried tofu, that was then stir fried with veggies and a tasty sauce. The chow mein was pretty standard and great to round out the meal. It all came with two portions of rice, on a whim I chose the brown rice which was shockingly delicious. I've never had brown rice that I liked and this was perfect. Anyway, O Mandarin will definitely now be my go to in the area! Can't wait to go back!

O Mandarin was an excellent find. I haven't been having much luck finding good spots in the Westchester area for a satisfying lunch with my parents but I had a good feeling about O Mandarin on account that it shares the same strip mall with an H Mart. (Here's a secret to sniffing out a worthwhile joint - look up the various H Mart locations and see which restaurants are next door. Chances are, the food should be pretty good for hungry shoppers who want something besides the food court.) The inside leans hard into the kitschy, made to look like the interior of an ancient Chinese temple. If they were also playing twinkly flute music to complete the atmosphere, I wouldn't be surprised. But lots of Chinese families eating there, and so again, I was optimistic. The menu is diverse, with a Szechuan influence, but there are also buns and dumplings if you want to scratch a dim sum itch. We ordered the following, all of which I'd order again, except for maybe the tofu and veggie clay pot: 1. Beef rib: By far my favorite. The rib was (as the cliche goes) fall off the bone tender, no need to use the accompanying knife. I loved the cubes of fried taro hidden in the sauce. 2. Deep fried whole fish in black bean sauce: A dish that my family will almost always order if we see it on the menu. This was a fantastic rendition, fish was fried well enough to preserve the flaky white meat. 3. Chongqing chili chicken: I'm not the biggest fan of the spicy, numbing part of this dish but my husband loved it and was inhaling the peppers whole. 4. Tofu and veggie clay pot: I would go with another vegetable dish next time. I loved the cut-up tofu but everything was slathered in that super thick, indeterminate brown sauce that made everything taste one-note. Dishes come with your choice of white or brown rice. Given the weekend lunch hour, it was a little hard flagging down a waiter when we needed extra utensils or a refill of the tea, but otherwise no complaints. For about $180 for four people, we left very satisfied and with leftovers.

I finally found a dine in Chinese restaurant with great food and service. My son and I decided to try this place for lunch and I'm so glad we went. We started with apps, spring rolls and soup dumplings which were piping hot and very fresh. My only complaint is that we really wanted regular dumplings but they come with pork and shrimp combined (my son is allergic to shellfish) so we settled on the soup dumplings. They were delicious as were the spring rolls. We then ordered sesame chicken, shrimp and broccoli (for me) and we shared an order of beef fried rice. I don't think I've ever ordered shrimp and broccoli and was given more than five shrimps - my plate was full of large size shrimp, fresh broccoli and it comes with white rice. I also tasted my son's sesame chicken and it was just as good too! It was so much food we couldn't finish it all and took the rest home. The one thing I noticed is that when I reheated my food the next day it was just as good as the first day - that's a rarity in my opinion. Our waiter was very good and very attentive to our needs and the decor is really nice. While it isn't the cheapest restaurant it isn't the most expensive and the food is definitely worth it. A must go to if you're in the area and I can't wait to go back!

I loved it here. I've ordered from here many times but the last time I was craving OM I stopped in. I love the ambiance and cozy vibes here. The food was amazing. We ordered several dishes including noodles, dumplings and chicken. I loved everything we tried. I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for delicious, authentic food.
