Panda Express

Cheap Chinese food on the go here. I love Panda Express. It is very good for what it is. The food is tasty. It’s fresh. There are lots of options. The price is right. What’s not to like about this place. I recommend using the app to get points and to order ahead so you don’t have to wait in line. There is no drive through here either.

Panda Express is a well established franchise with its own take on Chinese food. There is a love-hate relationship with this chain due to it’s inconsistent food offering and I can second that thought. I’ve been to this particular Panda Express quite a few times now, mostly for to-go lunches. My typical order consists of rice and 2 entrees (a plate) and most of the times it would be string bean chicken and kung pao chicken (since they are wok smart options, more on this later). However, I’ve also tried some of the other options; sesame chicken breast, orange chicken, grilled teriyaki chicken and honey-walnut shrimp. All these other options are high on calories, so I’d consider balancing entrees with one wok smart at the very least. They also server plain rice with super greens (broccoli) which would cater the needs for a few. Talking about the restaurant itself, it’s decently big with plenty of seating area. The ordering process is simple and you can try on the entrees before ordering. The food quantity is abundant, they have wok smart options (which are less calorie dense) along with appetizers like spring rolls and drinks (fountain drinks mostly). One thing to note, they tack a premium on the shrimp so please do taste it before ordering it, it has this sweet flavor which won’t appeal to the masses. The inconsistency comes from the fact that sometimes there is a lack of quality control; instances being half done rice or the lack of flavor in some entrees or the meat being extra chewy, which is disappointing, but I guess no restaurant is perfect. Panda Express is a casual Americanized Chinese food restaurant with plenty of options. They try to serve people from both sides of the table; healthy, calorie conscious folks with their wok smart foods, to the ones who simply want to enjoy some delicious sweet-savory food. The staff here is great and the restaurant is clean and spacious. An easy restaurant to recommend.

I’ve been here a few times. This location is the closest to me. Staff is usually friendly and fast. Today’s cashier was extremely attentive. Food is always good. My only reason for giving them four stars ⭐️ is that I wish they had more vegetarian options. They’re plain veggies are... well plain. I’ve asked for sauces that they’ve used to season other foods, and they say no as well even when Inoffer to pay extra. I like it when people are “yes” people.

I come here for my lunch break a few times a week. Food is always good and Staff are friendly. Shout out to Kayla who always remembers my order
