Business Summary what's this?
For three star Chinese, try Mandarin in Bountiful. The menu is flavorful. When you step inside the restaurant, you'll notice a family atmosphere. This restaurant is inexpensive. This restaurant features private rooms. This place is good for groups.
3.0 of 5 stars.
Very popular, very busy, and overrated. Notwithstanding, the food is good if you're looking for greasy American-Chinese fare.

The service is great, the Cashew Chicken is delish and you can count on a good time. Call ahead so you can walk in. Great for a date or family affair. The family style dishes are easy to share and enjoy.

Mandarin is a fusion of greek and chinese. If you like spicy chinese food, I would suggest the Mongolian Beef or Mongolian Pork. If spicy isn't a your game may I suggest Spicy Cashew Chicken.
