Review :
STAY AWAY! We were there on Mother's day, we found the food TERRIBLE. The soup tasted like a dirty old mop had sat in it and the rest of the food wasn't anymore palatable, there was a long pause in between dishes also we had to ask for our fried rice which came long after our dinner was over, it was dry, hard and tasteless. It certantly was not worth the price for what we received. Also the wine glasses came to the table dirty and had to be changed twice.The servers had no manners nor personality to be working with the public, also they do not have a proper system we had to wait quite a long time for our bill we asked twice and no one brought it to us we eventually went to the cash to pay and there also had to wait a good while. All in all it was a very bad experience.In all honesty it was not worth our time and money to eat there, our party of 6 will never go back and neither anyone else we know.WE WILL NEVER GO BACK TO ANY MANDARIN RESTAURANT.

Review :
The dim-sum is pretty good, albeit pricey and slow.
The regular menu is OK, but not as good as Chinatown and a lot more expensive.
The service is horrible all due to one server. He is male, short, stout. He also orders the other servers around so I think he is either part of the ownership or a supervisor.
We came there during the tail end of their lunch-hour so it wasn`t even terribly busy. They were serving dim-sum, but we also wanted to take a look at their regular menu. We asked him for one and he walked off without saying anything. When we asked another server for a menu, he grunted something at her. Eventually he came with one menu for our entire table.
So far, not the best of service from him, but nothing worth complaining about online yet.
After we looked over the menu, I put the menu under my arm. He came over and grabbed the menu from under my arm and walked away .... without saying anything and without taking our order!
I asked another server to grab us a menu and I placed our order with her.
But before she could write down our order with her, he rushed over and pulled her away. She said something to him in Chinese (I`m guessing explaining that she was taking our order) and he yelled something back and waved us off. That`s right, he wouldn`t take our order nor would he let anyone else take our order. That`s the first time I ever went to a restaurant where they refused to take my order!
Unbelievable; and unfortunate for the owners (if he isn`t one) and other servers because Mandarin Ogilvie has just lost myself (and those with me) as a customer. And I will complain about Mandarin Ogilvie to everyone I know.
... not that it matters, but I was there to see if I wanted to book a party there. Obviously I will not.
