Panda Express
Description
Located within Riverwind Casino, Panda Express offers a fast-casual experience that evokes a mix of delight and disappointment. While many patrons rave about the flavorful dishes, like teriyaki chicken and walnut shrimp, others criticize inconsistent food availability and service struggles. A dedicated staff member has garnered praise for her hard work, yet reports of long wait times and limited menu options persist. Clean surroundings and quick service enhance the dining experience, though frequent shortages leave diners wanting more. Ideal for a quick bite, this location remains a lottery of gastronomic enjoyment.

This is a Chinese fast-food restaurant, and it's important to note that they don't actually serve panda—it's just part of the name. The food is tasty, the service is fast, and the staff is friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is tidy and clean. I really enjoy coming here.
I try to visit this restaurant at least once a month. The main dishes are delicious. However, they often run out of the super greens. I am eagerly anticipating the arrival of the wok-seared shrimp.
We were disheartened to discover that there were no steak or shrimp available, and we were informed it would take an hour for it to thaw. When we returned after an hour, we noticed that the same thing was communicated to the woman in line in front of us. The restaurant made no effort to resolve the issue. We won't be coming back.
Typical Panda Express fare located as a franchise inside Riverwind Casino, its ok but just a notch below the larger brick and mortar stores. As with the larger stores the meal is selected from precooked bins by the server. Pricing structure is similar to the bigger stores as well, meals are tiered by combos of entrees and veggies. The veggie choices are usually limited to chow mein noodles or rice, entrees are the typical Chinese buffet selections of pepper chicken, broccoli beef, orange chicken and similar. My particular favorite is the Teriyaki chicken, these are served in large pieces that the server will slice before serving; the sliced teriyaki chicken seems juicier than the other battered and deep fried choices. The counter is handicap and wheelchair accessible as is the common Dining that serves all the food court franchises. Note: all the entree items are high in sodium, so it may not be the best choice for those with sodium restricted diets.
