Panda Gourmet would be rocking the culinary scene if its menu, food, and chef were near west side of capital beltway. Truly big kudos to the hard working Chinese family/staff running Panda Gourmet and representing truly unctuous magnificent Sichuan food east of Union Market. The food here rivals m
This is a great place for very authentic Szechuan food. I've been here multiple times and have never had a bad dish. The menu is extensive, but don't expect the food to be "American Chinese." Entrees are typically $15-20, and will be served family style for the table to share. It's in attached to a
A real hole in the wall find in the city. Amazing Szechuan food. Dan dan noodle is out of this world. Spicy pepper chicken is amazing. Egg soup is just right as well
Rumor has it that Xi Jing Ping visits this restaurant when he comes to Washington DC, so that means this place must be legit right? RIGHT!!
I didn’t think much of it for a long time since it sorta looked like another takeout place that serves the local hotels, but my god, this place is delicious!
This place was awesome! It was so good I came back the next night for another dinner here. The menu seemed to be mostly authentic Chinese food but there were a few American-Chinese options like sesame chicken. Definitely get the “Chinese Burger”
food is authentic and tasty. many professionals in lunch time. value for money.
A True Gem! This is my favorite Chinese restaurant. The rabbit is delicious but be cautious of tiny bones. The boiled fish is my favorite. If you like spicy food, you should definitely give it a try. The cabbage dish is very rich, but quite good. Whenever I have a guest seeking good Chinese food, th
It’s good but maybe doesn’t rise to the hype. I think its quirky location is mostly why people love it. It feels like you’ve discovered a hidden gem. The Dan Dan noodles were very spicy and delicious. I liked the scallion pancakes and salt shrimp (though maybe slightly too breaded and not salty enou
Was told of this place by an acquaintance, and thought that it was weird that a great place would be within a motel. I decided to bite and see what the situation was. I was floored coming here. There are many authentic dishes that are wonderful, the service is quick and friendly, the prices are reas
I was skeptical when someone mentioned this place for good Sichuan food…and then more people backed it up so I HAD to try it. Very good! The cold beef and tripe salad, the fried chicken bits, and eggplant were so good! Will definitely be coming back.
Don't come here expecting the usual Panda Express type of fare. Do come here expecting delicious, authentic Chinese food at a reasonable price! The dan dan noodles are particularly flavorful.
Visiting and read reviews so decided to try since we didn't want regular Chinese food. The beef noodle bowl was best ive ever had and the Chinese burger was amazingly different. The pork seasoned and tender and bun soft. Wish we had this place back home to continue to enjoy. The menue is very unique
I rarely give a place a second try, but Panda Gourmet got it and wowed me this time around.
Probably the best double cooked pork I've ever had.
Got four things this time:
hot-spicy chicken ($17.20)
chicken fiery pot ($17.20)
mapo tofu ($17.20)
double cook pork ($18.35)
I asked for "da ma - da la
Definitely worth the hype! Everything was amazing. The staff as well were so kind. I definitely enjoyed my time here and the food.
Unique traditional Chinese restaurant. Do not recommend ordering American Chinese at this restaurant. They specialize n traditional shaanxi and szechuan cooking. If you order their specialities you will have a great dining experience!
Cumin beef Chinese burger- unique beef slices with a cumin marin
I cannot stress this enough! This is the best Chinese takeout in DC proper by a mile. Definitely try it if you are able to, they deserve the business.
Pictured is the Hot and Sour soup and Chengdu cold noodles, both items came out to $13 before tip!! Such a reasonably priced restaurant, they deserv
