Been here done that will return. While in Andover at Walmart we were craving some Chinese food. And found Panda Garden Buffet! Great place in this strip mall dont get it mixed up with the other ones. While looking for the review I accidentally found one in Brooklyn Park too! But long story short, the colors are complementary which made me feel very welcomed, the staff greeted us quick and service proceeded as soon as we brought our food back. We came towards dinner time and it was great - plenty of room at our table, food was fresh, and they had a pretty cool habachi type grill. I do think the fish tank in the front could have been cleaned a little more cause of the stench it caused. But after acknowledging it to the staff they took it on and ensure it would be cleaned overnight. Ill be back!

Man, I dont know which way to go with this one...their Mongolian grill is awesome because they dont hose the food down with oil while cooking, making it a somewhat healthy alternative in a buffet. I frequent their lunch for this reason only as the rest of their buffet is mediocre at best, and at least the food then is fresh. However, going there at dinnertime I noticed nearly all their food is not turned over. Congealed and burned meats, "skin" on the surface of the soups. That is a health hazard, plain and simple. I still eat there once in a great while for the Mongolian, but I will never eat there at dinner again for fear of food poisoning. If you are not interested in the Mongolian grill, avoid this place and go to any of the other local buffets.

Great food, fun atmosphere, and theyve got T.Vs! Food selection is bigger than most other buffets I have been to, for a Chinese Buffet Id say theyre one of my top 5 favorites. I initially tried the Mongolian Grill (included with your buffet), so lo mein noodles, fresh beef, fresh vegetables, a bit of seafood mixed along side some teriyaki sauces. Went on to the regular buffet, usually in the evening they have a little different selection but I go for my regular things, crab legs, chicken wings, coconut shrimp and my favorite hot and sour soup. Always been a good experience with couple friends. Staff are quick to refill drinks and clear your table. Clean atmosphere and neat pond by the front door.

I love Chinese food, and I usually take a lot when I go there. I especially love their orange chicken, Ive only had it once because every other time I seem to go there they dont have it. They might have honey, and or sesame chicken. Or General Tsos chicken, which actually might be Orange chicken but I honestly have no clue. All I know is the food is good, but it would be great if they made orange chicken more.

Place got new owners and the food is horrible and not much section anymore. I went Sunday and was charged 14.99 because they serve crab legs but there were none, he brought 2 out that looked like they were on the floor for a month. It used to be my favorite place to eat but after that experience and stomach issues I will never go there again..so sad it used to be the best..may it rest in peace and go away!!

Will not be back. Prices have gone up and the food Quality has gone down. Not that it was great before but even now theres less food especially in the salad section. And your Mongolian stirfry...forget about that it cost extra. Pay the extra 3 dollars a person and go someplace else and have more variety. I gave this place three chances since the new owners and each time it got worse. Bye, bye Panda.

My husband and I went to the buffet on a Saturday evening. The Mongolian Beef grill was not open. Steamed dumplings were cold and the rice pudding was so thick it was not easy to push the scoop into it so I walked away and fortunately did not taste that dish. Beef was good but we will not be repeat customers. Server was very nice and that was the only real positive thing I can say.

Never again - price keeps going up, service no longer exists. Tonight after paying i noticed that all seafood was gone from buffet. I asked and was told now you must pay extra and they bring you a portion. Quality way down! Lots of noodles and breading and low cost low quality items Food looked old and dry My money will be more wisely spent almost anywhere else

This place sucks. The cheesecake tasted like hardened vanilla pudding on a graham cracker, the topping on the cheesecake tasted like Robitussin cough sirup. The brownies tasted like cardboard. The pork, and shrimp tasted undercooked. And the Hibachi Grill person was slow as molasses... Never go here, ever again. #Gross

I have to give this place a star but it deserves no stars, they closed down the grill where you pick fresh food and they cook it in front of you. Well we walked in and walked straight out. They lost all the people I was with plus all the people I know. They suck, their food also wasnt good anyways. Its a no go place!!

First time here, filled a plate at lunch buffet and there were bugs in my white rice! Gross! I told someone who worked there and all they did was give me an apology and not charge me for my meal. But my friend still had to pay for his. Will NOT be back ever!

They have a lot of food options here, but I question their practices after I saw an employee "cleaning up" the veggie area by putting the dropped foods from the counter back into the containers. Im pretty sure that is not allowed. Yuck.

Food and service seemed good. Wondered why there were only 5-8 tables with customers at them on Saturday at lunch time. 4 hours later my stomach answered that food poisoning I assume. First and last visit.

Food here is great, but watch your receipt, we got take out and paid with debit card and they decided to add a $5.00 tip to our order! I do not tip a cashier! Very bad practice for repeat business.

Have been coming here for years!!! Not the same. Way more expensive, way less quality. Zero service, no Mongolian BBQ (unless you pay extra) I advise not coming here again. I will not be. Sad to say

Been going there for years. No more. All downhill under the new ownership. No seafood, no rice pudding, no Mongolian barbecue, no fortune cookies, no more TVs, and REALLY bad music.

Its a nice place with good food (when you eat at peak times). I would not recommend eating here after 7pm due to food sitting out longer. Love the coconut shrimp.

Had much better. Poor selection. Only 2 types of sushi, cut too large, squeeze bottle wasabi. Not worth the money you pay. Go somewhere else.
