About as good as it gets for everyday Chinese food. You could deduct some for the décor, but the food was good enough to overcome any other minuses.

Consistently delicious! One order feeds two easily. Very affordable. I love the wonton soup. They deserve a newer place though.

The Panda House is still a great place for Chinese food and Mr Ding has improved the restaurant by updating the inside and updating the air conditioning. He’s added carafes for the tea which is really nice. He’s also continuing to come up with ideas for improvements.

I was looking for some good Chinese food on Unilocal when I ran across this little gem. The food here is fantastic. I ordered the Hanan beef and it gives you the opportunity to choose your level of spicy and I chose Medium-Hot. It was delicious! Perfect balance of flavors and heat. The fried rice was perfect. I didn’t care for the egg drop soup. But the lunch specials and fast and friendly service will definitely have me going back again.

Good prices, plenty of food, very nice people that work there. Great for college students since there’s enough to take home for later. We started going here when we were attending UTA and have been making trips up there from Mansfield ever since.

I have been going here for 20 years. Never failed on test or service. Garlic sauce with Chicken is must. I was regular for 12 – 13 years. I would call to place an order, the owner knew who I was by my order. Everyone is friendly. It’s mom/pop owned

My family and I ate here today. When we got there, we were super hesitant to go in. Looks kind of old and ran down. We finally decided to eat there and boy were we glad we did! The food was delicious! Even my 8 year old who is very picky cleaned his plate of sweet and sour chicken with French fries. The portion sides were huge. I had enough to fill me up there plus take some home for dinner. My only complaint was that there was a huge language barrier between the waitress and myself but she was super sweet, polite and attentive. Overall I’d say don’t judge a book by its cover!

My favorite Chinese place to order delivery from. Everything on the menu is delicious. The shrimps are always big and the portions for the other meals are generous as well. But my favorite thing about this place is that you can specify how spicy you want your food! Panda House is definitely worth trying!

Everything is great. Lunch specials are the best deal. Plenty of food and quick service too. Never had a bad meal in over 20 years.

Worst food ever im sure a frozen dinner would have been better than this place. Would have put a negative star if it were possible

Won’t come back here again. I heard good reviews but after going here and ordering I will not do it again. The food was gross looking and tasting.

The restaurant opened almost 30 years ago and the owner are a very nice couple, my wife always order the beef noodle and we think its very close to the real Asian noodle soup.

Okay look this place isn’t going to look like a 5 star restaurant I mean look at the quantity and price. It’s a hole in the wall restaurant but in my experience, those places typically have great food. I’ve eaten here before it’s not as bad as everyone is making it out to be but I usually take it to go majority of the time.

Wtf Unilocalers? How dare you recommend panda house? The food might have been good. I’m actually not sure. How can that be? I was distracted by the fact that the place hadn’t been cleaned since the 80’s, or however long it’s been around. I couldn’t bring myself to choke it down whilst sitting in my sticky booth. If that’s what the dining area looked like, I don’t want to imagine what the kitchen does. Someone contact the health department. I would, but when I think of panda house my mouth involuntarily clams shut. Ew.

Thank you Unilocal reviewers for just wasting my $ 11. I wondered how this restaurant got all these good reviews; now I m thinking ¾ of them are familys’ or friends’ reviews. I love Chinese food, and I have probably tired every restaurant around this area. This was the worst of even the worst. After getting off classes from UTA around 12:30PM I ordered shrimp fried rice and two egg rolls(At $ 1.10 per piece, I expected them to be way above normal; they were super dry and horrible tasting). Fried rice was just the waste of money. Looks like the cook forgot to put eggs in fried rice and I bet there was a total of 8 – 9 shrimps in the whole order. I will upload a picture along this. And Invoice: Fried rice : — 6.00+ 1 extra for shrimp Egg roll: 2* 1.1 Total: 9.10 Tax: 0.751 Grand total: 9.851. How the heck it totaled to $ 11? I so wanna go back and get my $ 1.14 but I rather let them have it then go back there. Not in my whole life I am going back to that place! Ridicules!

Rice is excellent! egg roll. not sure. Food was decent. Sweet and sour sauce stained my fingers. Price was wonderful I will try once more. But so far like the one down the rd better.

I’ve been eating here for years but it’s been over two years since I have been here. The Good: The food is still just as good as ever. I love the chicken with garlic sauce. It’s one my favorite meals and theirs is about as good as you can get. The service is friendly and prompt. If you are there at lunchtime the lunch specials contains your main dish, rice, an egg roll, and soup all for around $ 5.95.(The portions are HUGE) I’m an iced tea snob. I want to taste my tea and not just have dirty water. Their tea is strong and has a bite that I really enjoy. The Bad: This place is a dump. They have not remodeled the place since it was built. If you are turned off by very old run down places you might want to stay away. The Ugly: The reason that we had not been here for over two years is because the last time we ate here my husband and I got EXTREMELY sick. We were completely down for about three days. I know it was most likely a one time thing but when I get sick from a place, even though I love it, it takes me time to return.

This place is absolutely amazing. I have never been a big fan of Chinese food but I could eat this place every day! I always thought fried rice was just fried rice, until I had panda house fried rice. Everything is perfect! Perfect flavor and perfectly cooked and it is perfect every single time. There is just a little old lady and her husband at this place and every time you walk in they are so nice and accomodating! Proves that tiny hole in the wall places are the best discoveries on Earth! My friend is a «pepper steak expert» and he says it is the best pepper steak he has ever had! The sizzling rice soup is amazing and ive never been able to find it anywhere else. Also the orange chicken and garlic chicken is better than any orange or garlic chicken anywhere! They also deliver, and are always very prompt. We order at work(I’ve gotten everyone hooked) and they always arrive quickly and with a smile on their face! I will drive 20 minutes to get food here any day! PANDAHOUSEFORLIFE!
