We are true fans of good Chinese cusine. We ordered 5 different choices and found each to be authentic, or nearly so, Chinese cusine. The hot and sour soup was excellent. The Lemon chicken was a little too sweet, the pork fried rice was a little too dry (old maybe). Am anxious to try other menu choices.

Located on the way up the hill you could look back and see the beautiful hills along the Snake River but watch where you are going. When you get to the Mandarin Pines be hungry. The servings are large and tasty. I am partial to Chop Suey and they have some of the best. Their eggrolls aren't bad, either. The... More

This has to be the best Chinese Food that I have ever eaten. The atmosphere is elegant and the food is great. Best almond chicken that I have had since I moved.

I'm a local resident who has eaten at every Chinese Restaurant in town. This one is probably in the top 4 closer to number 3 or 4. The service is very slow almost every time I have eaten there over a period of 15 years or so. Also, the flavor of the food is very lacking. I've tasted some Chinese... More

I lived in Lewiston for a long time, and Mandarin Pine is by far my favorite chinese restaurant. Sometimes on the weekends they have live piano music too. My husband and I can both eat, with sodas, and the total bill is still under $25. Sometimes the service can be a little slow, but usually it's because they're so busy.

Being originally from Illinois and moving to Idaho, I didn't think I could ever find good chinese food. I found it. Thank God. This food tastes delicious..and I haven't tried anything there yet that I haven't liked. And, the servings are big enough to take home and eat a full meal from again. Thank you, Mandarine Pine. You make my... More

In all my years of visiting Lewiston I never imagined this little Chinese restaurant would have the best food around, but it does! I believe the quality of the food at the Mandarin Pine rivals that of more upscale, big city (and much more expensive), restaurants. The staff was very friendly and again the quality of the food was excellent.... More

I decided to give the Mandarin Pine a try because it was right next to the hotel and recommend by the desk clerk. I was not disappointed. The interior has an upscale appearance with cherry finished chairs and tables. The Chinese decor made the atmosphere even more inviting. I ordered from the menu to go. The employees were friendly and... More
