Panda Express - Alexandria

Everything is fantastic! I can't find a single thing I didn't enjoy.

The food is quite good, and the staff make an effort to keep the bins well-stocked and fresh. Although I don’t reside in the area, I try to visit whenever I can, despite it being closed due to Covid. I've had the opportunity to chat with the manager, who is very friendly and has spent some time in Australia, so he understands English very well. Some of the staff are still working on their English, which is understandable given how challenging the language can be. I know a few words in Mandarin, and they always encourage me, even if my pronunciation is far from perfect.

To make matters worse, about an hour after leaving, all four of us started feeling really sick. When I called to inform him that his food had made us ill, he told me to go to the hospital and hung up on me. Overall, it was a very frustrating experience, and I wouldn’t recommend this place.

I have been here many times the food is consistently good. When the place began to get run down a year or so ago, whoever owns it renovated the place, so the interior has improved. The fried shrimp are good, so are the crab puffs. I actively like about 80% of them buffet items (but that's due to individual preference it's true of every Chinese buffet I go to. The cashier is a nice guy speaks good English (the wait staff is courteous, but they usually don't have any idea of what you're saying if it doesn't involve ordering a glass of iced tea. I recommend eating here if you like Chinese buffets.

We really love this place
