Mandarin Restaurants is celebrating Canada Day and its 45th anniversary in Canada by offering free buffet meals at its Ontario restaurants, including Newmarket, on July 1.

Admission will be honoured on a first-come, first-served basis during seating hours from noon to 8 p.m. Customers will also receive complimentary soft drinks, tea, and coffee in addition to their meal, according to a news release.

No dine-in reservations will be taken for July 1.  

Canadian tradition for 45 years

Mandarin’s success story began 45 years ago when its founders came to Canada to start a small, à la carte restaurant in Brampton in 1979.

Millions of meals later, Mandarin has grown to 30 locations across Ontario, with more than 2,500 staff and 150 managing partners who will open their doors to welcome guests on July 1 for this tasty event.

“When our family started Mandarin more than four decades ago, we built our business on providing delicious meals for everyone in a welcoming space, for guests to create special moments in our restaurants,” says James Chiu, president and co-founder of Mandarin Restaurants.

“All these years later, we are honoured to see new generations of families make special Mandarin moments and we want to thank everyone for contributing to its success with our free buffet event this Canada Day.”

The July 1 free Canada Day meal will include the award-winning Mandarin all-you-can-eat buffet, featuring the best in Chinese-Canadian cuisine.

Guests can enjoy more than 100 dishes, including exclusive Celebrate Canada promotional dishes – from Maple Glazed Salmon to Canadian Pizza. Mandarin favourites will also be served at the hot foods and grill table, soup and salad bar, prime rib counter, sushi corner, desserts counter, and ice cream sundae and frozen yogurt bar.

Line-ups are expected to begin early in the morning.
