I really enjoyed my visit to Panda Express! The food was fresh, hot, and flavorful. The staff were friendly and quick, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. My favorite dishes were the Orange Chicken and Chow Mein — both were delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back again!

I’ve never been to a Panda Express be so damn skimpy on everything they serve. They gave me 5 honey walnut shrimp, gave me one tongs of chow mein, 7 pieces of Beijing beef! Like what the hell! I know we’re in a recession but how can you charge this much at a neighborhood restaurant during a recession? Corporate greed will always ruin the long time customers! I will never ever be coming back and I’ll be sure to let everyone know. I’m also posting this to my 39k followers……. Also the food tasted like it didn’t have enough seasoning, like it was all bland.

Not sure why everyone doesn’t like this location. First of all they made it so much more special from architecture to interior design and food and the rest is as good as other places

Rice dry and tasteless, noodles dry, honey shrimp tasted like vinegar, no sweetness, teriyaki chicken had no teriyaki flavor with no grill marks. I’m not sure what this meal was but it was nothing like I I’ve gotten at any other Panda. I choked down the noodles and shrimp because I was hungry. I couldn’t eat the chicken and rice.

Pulled up to the drive-thru, which only had about 4-5 cars ahead of us, and figured it wouldn’t be much of a wait. Ordered a family meal and then sat stuck in the drive thru for at least 30-40 minutes with no warning. Finally make it to the window and then are told after we already paid that they are out of broccoli beef. We were asked to park out front and they would be out with it shortly. Sat in our car for another 15 minutes before finally going in to see what’s taking so long. Stood at the pickup area for another several minutes being ignored and watching everyone cater to the entire line of people inside, serving them the broccoli beef we had been waiting about an hour for. Finally someone comes up and asks us if this is our order and says nothing else, not even an apology. Get home with the food. Food is hardly edible. My walnut shrimp is undercooked, breading is thick and gummy like blubber. Had to peal the breading off to even stomach it. Worst Panda ever.

It is very clean and well stocked. Everyone is nice and helpful. The food is the best from any panda I’ve visited! I know they just opened not long ago (April?), I make the good little drive to come here. Thank you all.

The young lady helping me at the window about 4:00 9/20/25 was very nice and truly tried to keep me happy…I didn’t have the heart to be mad, but nothing was ready everything I ordered was not there she offered for me to wait in parking lot and I didn’t have the time so she pieced together a meal with a little of this and a little of that nothing I came for. If they don’t hire enough staff/ or capable staff (I don’t know the situation) then know one will come to this panda Express. There is actually other businesses opening down the road soon. Good luck to the sweet girl helping me today!

We had to wait for some of our food to be prepared and the manager comped us drinks for the inconvenience. This beats the time they completely forgot about our catering order at a different location.

I never really liked panda before, the food wasn’t great. (Not that I expected much). But, at this location the food always tastes fresh, even 30 mins prior to close. The workers are super friendly and professional and always take care of us. If we don’t cook at home, this is our new spot for sure. Great team here!

The service was good, Ben S. was great and quick with our orders. The cook, Abraham, did an amazing job cooking the orange chicken, hot orange chicken and chow mein. Panda express is usually a hit or miss for me but the food I ate here was probably the best panda express food I’ve eaten in a while. I was a bit surprised honestly. I would come here again in the evening.
