Food wasn't spectacular, but it wasn't bad either. Good place for a cheap meal but don't expect the world.

Fast service, although somewhat intimidating staff with the speed they are looking to achieve. Good food though! Up to Panda... Express standards Read more

There is some serious issues keeping track of stock here. I get that most Pandas will typically be out of some items, but this... place had no idea what was going on. Some items that were taped over on the menu I could see in stock in the display, and someitems not taped over were actually out of stock. On top of that, they didn't properly manage their white rice levels, and ranout when I was up to order, causing them to spend quite a bit of time to make and get more... Food was still alright though. Read more

My actual score would be 3 1/2. I?ve been here multiple times and I can say tgat there are up sides and down sides. The good... thing is that the food is always good. It?s amazing. The downside would be if they have the food you came for. Several timesthey didn?t have steamed rice. So much so that I stopped coming for a bit and went to a different one whenever my mom is intown. But since it is on campus, it makes sense. Today, I got the steamed rice and amazing food. I also got a drink and I haveto say that the drink was the downside. I?ve onky ever gotten a drink here once before and I remember it being subpar. I am ahuge fan of rootbeer. Not only did I dump the rootbeer cuz it was unusually light in color, i also ended up throwing away thewhole cup of Dr. pepper. I didn?t have time to check it cuz I had a bus to catch, which I ended up missing, so I just trusted itwould be okay. It was also low on syrup. I would say that the staff is friendly and the food is always amazing and you reallyjust need to know the busy hours if you want to get through quickly. The only downside is something is always lacking/missing,rather it be the sides, entrees, or drinks. It?s because of this that I give it my rating. Read more

I eat here for lunch everyday and truly appreciate the hard work everybody pits in at this store. I am greeted and served with... much kindness every time I arrive. Eva thanks me every morning for coming and she is always bright and happy to serve. Read more
Literally every single time I?ve been to this place wanting the beyond orange chicken I?ve had to wait for them to make a new... batch. Don?t come in a hurry if you?re vegetarian lol Read more
