This Panda Express location is in a shopping center with adequate parking, although since Im not from the area, I have no idea how it is in peak times. We decided to visit the restaurant on Chinese New Year, which might not have been the best time since they were very busy. However, I noticed that the people at the service counter were quite efficient and kept the line moving quickly. I thought service was actually pretty good despite their workload. They did forget one thing when packing my order but they corrected it quickly when I brought it to their attention. I thought the food, at least the entree items I picked, was not bad. A few items in the steam trays seemed too mushy and too similar to distinguish but they did have a few novel items, eggplant tofu and soup, that werent at my local Panda Express yet. The dining area was way too small for the evenings crowd, so thank goodness most of the customers had takeout orders.

Use to go to Panda Express at this location, Food not bad at prices then. Today in 2015, specific 3/24/15 I went and the menu changed as well as prices change for worst. I got the smallest food (1 entree 1 side) for just under $7 however quantity of food was 1/2 of what it was. Lunchtime server told me they were not cooking whats seen on menu & what I inquired about for at 1pm. Again food not bad but its change not for consumer but for $$$ gains of business. I vow to not ever go there again, Ill also inform few friends at companies to think twice about going to Panda Express for lunch. Not what it use to be, Dissappointed!

Rude and unprofessional staff. Incorrect store hours posted on the building, no attempt to explain the lack of signage update. No attempt to apologise for the inconvenience, instead I was told I "should of checked online, everything is online nowadays". On our way out a young male employee made extremely rude remarks about my friend and I allegedly smoking illicit substances; "maybe you would read if you didnt smoke so much weed". My party and I walked out, gathered our thoughts and walked back in. Apparently the young man "was kidding" and made no attempt to apologise for his actions. No manager on duty during this time, apparently they left early and when asked whos in charge there was no accountability. We walked into the store at 9:20pm on a Wednesday, the door has posted closing time of 10pm.

Its a nice restaurant its usually crowded during the lunch hour on weekdays which is 12 - 2pm and weekends after 1pm. Its just standed cafeteria serving system with basic American Chinese food I usually get the low mein with a side of orange chicken and a chicken egg roll its pretty good. There is a nice mixture of indoor and outdoor seating. They also let you order online and pick up if you use their app or website. They also have very clean restrooms and the restaurant overall is very clean

This restaurant has the best Chinese food ever! The next step to true Chinese food is by going to China. I love coming and eating here especially and the portions are good sizes and filling. We also have catering from here each year and get party platters of food and they give us so much with the platters like sauces, napkins, utensils, fortune cookies, etc. Overall, this place is highly recommended to visit for the best Chinese food around and family friendly hospitality!

Tip: Save the receipt after your purchase. I always fill out the survey to redeem a free side for my next visit Pro: always cooked fresh in a wok, so it never tastes like processed fast food. The service is fast and feels like Im in college when picking my food choices. There are many healthy choices, especially if youre looking to lose weight. Con: The staff is at times hard to communicate with but usually there is never a need to have lengthy convo with them.

Love this place. Cannot say I have ever been dissatisfied with any experience here. The staff are kind and patient. They inform you (when you are struggling to choose between the variety of meal items) that you are more than welcomed to sample any. The portion sizes are always generous and the food is always fresh.

Panda Express is an Americanized Fast Food Chinese restaurant. Despite that it is delicious, and their Orange Chicken is the best thing on the menu. Your guaranteed to find something here youll enjoy. A nice open kitchen along with a staff who keeps the location maintained is a huge plus too.

The food is ok, but they need to be more consistent in the serving size, sometimes you get a good proportion of rice and entree other times you get a lot of rice and a very small serving of the entree. I dont go there as often as I used to.

Not your typical chinese take-out in a strip. A little bit pricey but food quality is decent. Been here many times for quick bites. Sometimes its crowded at lunch hour with no vacant seats.

This is my kids favorite take out spot. They do change up the options for chicken & beef but they never change the tofu vegetarian option... Quick & tasty take out option

The staff is really sweet here. Come during busy hours and the food is hot and fresh, other times you will find food that has been sitting on the line for a while
