About Mandarin Restaurant
Mandarin is Canada's best-known all-you-can-eat buffet chain, and the Kanata location is Ottawa's largest buffet restaurant. The menu rotates through more than 100 dishes — Chinese classics like General Tso's chicken and chow mein alongside sushi, pizza, a carving station, salad bar, fresh seafood, and an overflowing dessert counter.
The dining room is big, bright, and chandelier-lit. It's the kind of place families book for birthdays, graduations, and holiday dinners.
