The Mandarin Star

If you’re curious about Chinese food in Brisbane’s far north, few places can provide an education like The Mandarin Star on Gympie Road in Strathpine. This is a casual, family-friendly Chinese eatery where the length of the menu is reminiscent of the Great Wall. Starting with a host of tempting entrees, through a delicious spread of authentic yum cha dim sum, finger-lickin’ pot-stickin’ dumplings, traditional Chinese soups, an encyclopedia of chicken, beef, lamb, duck, prawn, fish, scallop, squid and vegetarian mains, taking in countless chow mein concoctions, chef’s special dishes and decadent desserts, The Mandarin Star really runs the gamut of Chinese cookery. You won’t find a spread this comprehensive or affordable elsewhere in Strathpine and it’s a place you can easily visit a dozen times and have something different each meal, though if you’re limited to one visit we can strongly recommend The Mandarin Star’s various buffet menus to give you a little taste of it all.
