Description

Panda Express offers a varied dining experience characterized by fresh ingredients and good service. Many patrons delight in the flavorful sesame chicken and perfectly cooked beef and broccoli, finding the fried rice particularly enjoyable. However, inconsistencies in food quality and service arise, with some diners reporting issues such as inattentive staff and incorrect orders. Sanitation practices have also raised concerns, despite a posted high sanitation rating. While some visitors appreciate the vibrant atmosphere and quick service, others suggest alternative restaurants for superior flavors and portion sizes.

Wanted some Chinese food. I really wanted to eat something other than burgers, chicken, or fries. After ordering, receiving, and eating the food, I didn't finish all of it, I realized why I don't go to Panda Express. Canton Chinese Restaurant right down the street has the BEST Asian food in town. I'm sorry to write such a poor review, but it's the truth and honest summary of experience.

On my first trip to panda express which was about 3-4 weeks ago, its may 3 now, it was a bit unusal, looked like a buffet, I was standing at the register locking at the menu waiting for someone to take my order, there was a young lady standing at the opposite end of the counter, after a bit of time she ask if I wanted to order something I said yes, you have start down here where she was, she seemed a bit upset, preceded to tell me to choose, I did she wasn't friendly she took a spoon full of fried rice threw it at the container going in every part of the box. Bad first experience haven't been back since. Food was ok but not worth the arrogance of the server.

I was not impressed with this restaurant. The food was not great and the portions were small. I ordered through Uber Eats and did not receive my paid premium upgrade or egg rolls. After driving to the restaurant, they did give me what I ordered and a free drink, but I still paid $35. The food was disappointing, with plain fried rice and mushy egg rolls. I suggest trying Jade Express, Golden China, or Sumo Bowl instead, as they are cheaper, offer more food, and taste better.

My order of honey walnut shrimp did not come close to filling the tiny carton, felt ripped off. Chow mein was mostly huge chunks of onion and cabbage, with a few noodles. Poor value, disappointing experience. Have had much better food and portions at other Panda locations.Food: 2/5

They really need to make the size bigger on the Panda bowls.
