China Panda

I have ordered food from this place twice now. Although the prices of the food can’t be beat, my first experience included speaking to a young man (presumably the high-​school aged son of the owners) who was quite rude and short with me over the phone. My second experience was much better, since this same kid was less rude. Did I mention the prices are incredibly reasonable? My husband and I had leftovers for days!

New to the area, picked a local restaurant and found this restaurant. It was 15 mins to close, but they took our order and had it ready before close. Food tasted great and was sized to give us extras for the next day.

I ordered 2 lunch orders of General tso’s chicken and the meat was so hard you couldn’t put the fork through it. I was at work and couldn’t go back for another order. I called and asked for a refund — I would pick it up on my way home from work. the man answering didn’t speak any English. he had to have his wife call me back, her English wasn’t much better but she said that she would give it to me for free next time *news flash: it’s not free if I’ve already paid for it & it was disgusting* I don’t want more gross food.

I’m originally from Long Island Ny, so Chinese food is something I know very well (that and pizza). This place reminds me of a place I grew up on. A family owned and run restaurant with fantastic food! Highly recommend. A couple of recommendations: make the egg rolls larger, put bone-​in spare ribs on the menu.

Yummy! The other reviews are right. My chicken fried rice will last me the next 2 or 3 meals. My husband and I were both pleased with taste and quality of our lunches. The only complaints I have are that the sweet and sour soup was nasty, and it took 15 minutes to get our food out. Not a terrible wait, but for takeout next time we’ll call ahead. Oh, and I kinda felt short-​changed with the tiny pieces of chicken amongst the amount of delicious rice.
I still love the food, so I’m keeping it at 4 stars.

Honestly one of the best take out Chinese restaurants I have eaten from. The lunch menu is hard to beat in terms of price and good quality. I have never waited more than 10 minutes for my food to be ready to take home. The crab ragoons are a must try!

This is the good thing about Unilocal.Without it, I would not have tried this great restaurant. The exterior doesn’t let you know this is a serious establishment that takes pride in what it serves. You can watch the experienced chefs cook your order.

Solid option for Chinese. Have not had anything bad and everything is freshly cooked and ready on time.

For price, quality and speed of getting in and out, you can’t beat China Panda. The rice is always cooked to perfection and I haven’t tried a bad dish.
I highly recommend their pepper steak and the beef with mixed vegetables.

My husband and I have lived across from China Panda for two years and they are very consistent. The chicken fried rice and orange chicken are really good. I recently had the vegetable delight with brown sauce on the side. Holy balls… Amazing!

I’ve been to China Panda a few times and all experiences were similar.
Te food is prepared to order, so call ahead or be prepared to wait. The veggies were not cooked through, and were cold and tough. The entrees are big and inexpensive, which is a plus. I ordered sweet and sour chicken and had enough for four meals.
Overall, decent enough Chinese food and close to my apartment. But, probably not worth a trip across town.

Don’t be turned off by the bad reviews. Every place, even the finest dining establishments, have bad days. Just left there and it was great! Hot food, plenty of flavor and the crab Rangoon was delicious! Certainly more crab would be better, but hey it comes with the meal. Great value and tasty!

I went to this place based on the 8 other people that said this place was awesome. My office is directly behind of this place and always wanted to try it. With a name like CHINA PANDA it must be great because that name is terrible.
This shout out is to you 8 people who said this was good. IT IS TERRIBLE. This is my very first review commenting about terrible food. I have commented about service but food was good. I am venturing into an unknown place on how to commit on what i just experienced 20 mins ago.
Check the other reviews because everyone said the General Tso was awesome. WRONG. It was crunchy, over cooked and tasteless. There wasn’t spice at all. It had the consistency and taste of crumbled dry wall. NOW before you come back with a joke about me «eating dry wall» just go with it.
SORRY forgot the appetizer. So how can crab rangoons be bad? You are right, the came out full and looked great. Well first bite, oil was dripping out of the wonton. The plate was covered with oil.
The best part of the meal was the rice that came out. The rice was very sticky but also cold. It wasn’t the coldest thing on the plate because that award went to the ice cold broccoli.
I really wanted this to be great. Reviews were great and it is walking distance from my office. As people walked in, I was whispering for those people to turn back.
Like I said earlier, first review of a place with really bad food.
Joe S, I have to apologize for not listening to your review.

Underwhelming name with surprising food!
We stumbled on this place just from being in the area and the reviews were rather good. They are in a little strip mall with a fairly small restaurant so you can tell they do alot of take outs. The menu was full of your stereotypical items but they had some great cheap specials!
I got the General Tao’s chicken which came with fried rice, egg roll, and a side of soup for under 6 bucks, I believe! My buddy got the orange chicken and they even accommodated our request to make it a little extra spicy.
We sat in a booth watching a Chinese version of Wheel of Fortune while waiting on our food, and when she called our names there was a HUGE bag of food siting on the counter for just us two. You get a typical Styrofoam take out box full of fried rice and chicken, then another for the soups and sides!
The General’s Chicken was definitely the way to go! I was well spiced and not overwhelmingly sweet. The orange chicken was alright and the fried rice was really well done.
So overall great BANG FOR YOUR BUCK, with better than average food quality (don’t be expecting New Peking or anything)

Excellent food. The general tso’s chicken is to die for. Love the mushu pork as well. Awesome lunch specials. The only drawback is that while they claim it will be 35 – 40 minutes for delivery it’s usually closer to an hour, but regardless it’s well worth the wait.

A good take out place. Fast and friendly staff, good menu selection. Food was great.

This place is awful. Ordered Extra spicy generals chicken and it was still flavorless. fried rice was awful, and white rice tasted like bleach.
Crab Rangoon was really good, though its hard to screw up fried cream cheese.

Fast service with friendly staff. LOVE the General So, and Cashew Chicken. You get a great value with the combos (includes rice, soup, and egg roll). Fried rice is YUMMY! Wish they had more choices for kids.

I’ve been on the hunt for good Chinese takeout since I moved to the area. I then discovered China Panda. I got the sweet and sour chicken combo platter, which came with hot and sour soup, pork egg roll, and roast pork fried rice. For $ 7.25, it was plenty of food. This is seriously the best takeout Chinese that I have found in this area for a reasonable price.

Amazing chinese– especially General Tso’s. However, they usually quote 20 – 25 minutes for delivery and usually it’s 40 – 60 minutes. So just plan accordingly. :) The crab rangoons are really full of filling too.
