Panda Kitchen - Belhaven

The combination plates are very small. The food used to be quite good, but since the new ownership took over, it has been a disappointment. I ordered chicken with mixed Chinese vegetables, but all I received was chicken and onions on my plate. I am extremely dissatisfied.

The food is consistently delicious, made with fresh ingredients every day. The crabs are the best I've ever had—they're much larger than those offered at other Chinese restaurants.

I dined there again today, and it was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant!

I was just once in panda kitchen, on my one and only trip to bellhaven, so I have limited information to report. I was pleased that they had a nice soup, I don't know any other Chinese restaurant that it does. it tasted good, no complaining. I don't know if this is a franchise because I see the name elsewhere. most Chinese restaurants with takeaways are independent. obviously independent is preferred because it has more flexibility with the menu to make the dishes they are expert, or have more demand to adjust the menu. finally a general commentary about Chinese restaurants. the dishes they serve are not eaten by chinese, they were burned out from the remains in 1849 for the hungry gold miners who burned for gold after spending the whole day. the Chinese themselves call it cheating Chinese because it has nothing to do with the Chinese cuisine, and is only for the lo fan (barable). Why can they not actually serve Chinese dishes instead of this fake Chinese cuisine? give us a chance, we might like it! at least it would distinguish a Chinese restaurant from all others in the region.

I have no idea what happened to Panda Kitchen but the food took a hard hit. One time it just tastes bad, another time its way too salty. It used to be decent, considering Belhaven is limited on takeout restaurants, as far as Im concerned, they lost another one. Blah
