I had the Kung Pao Chicken and Broccoli Beef. Both of these dishes are my favorite. There is always a lot of chicken in the Kung Pao. The Broccoli Beef always melts in your mouth! read more

My brother has a shop in Solvang and we often meet here to eat because the service is great and the Orange Chicken is AMAZING. We always order the Spicy version and the flavor is just perfect. I have tried many other dishes and we have not found something we haven't liked. read more

The first thing you see when you walk in is a green algae infested fish tank. The service was really good and the food was good also. It seemed a little over price for the small portion of food I got. read more

Ordered delivery on a weekday and it took an hour... we live across the street. It was decent food, but nothing special. Unfortunately there is not a whole lot of options in the Valley so you're kind of stuck if you're craving chinese food. read more

A Chinese meal in the heart of ebelskiver territory, yea why not? Decent ethnic food in an absolutely clean joint. Ample, booth seating with friendly and welcoming hosts, servers. Great menu! No msg, and the chef will customize dishes to meet diners palates. I recommend China Panda, for the staff is welcoming and the eats will fix your yen for some good tasting Chinese! read more

From the huge aquarium at the entrance to the green tables edged with gold foil under a beautifully sealed finish, Chinese Panda offers atmosphere with touches beyond the norm. Seated quickly we were given a plate of fried wontons with sweet and sour sauce which was a nice touch. We ordered a large bowl of wonton soup and a po-po platter of appetizers. Everything was piping hot and so fresh! Although I would have enjoyed more spice in the soup, it was fresh and zippy with lots of fresh vegetables. I'm not shy when it comes to seasoning things to my satisfaction so by the time I added some more chili, soy sauce and a touch of hot mustard, I was in happy camp. Our po-po platter of appetizers was excellent. the foil chicken was far from the tiny little thing you are often served and was delectably hot and tasty. From the lovely atmosphere to the tasty food, it was a wonderful experience. read more

kungPOW! I lived in SB for 39 years and thought China Palace had the finest Egg Fu Yung around. To my pleasant surprise, China Panda's is just as good! Rich sauce, plenty of fresh veggies and crispy/soft inside patties. Huge portions and sticky rice too. Can't speak for the rest of the menu, but I assume it's just as good. P-----Ex------ opened right across the road, but this is barely Chinese food. Support the old school Chinese restaurant-go to China Panda soon! read more

Loved it!!! The food was delicious and the workers there were super friendly and kind.

Blah...this is the only Chinese place that delivers anywhere in the valley, and so I've had it a few times. Their twice cooked pork is pretty good. Other than that everything is very Americanized, and on the bland side. And, keeping with the trend for the SY Valley, this place is over priced. Delivery, for 2, runs around 25 dollars with a modest tip, and the food comes cold to Solvang. Not worth it, I'd rather go to the (Mandarin) Touch in Solvang and deal with putting pants on once in a while. They used to have a website - www.chinapanda.com. However it's now gone. After the site went down I did order, so the place still exists - at least as of 6 months ago. read more

I can find no reason at this place to give less than 5*s. I stay overnight in Buellton now & then to ride at Zaca Station track down the road, & this place is my dinner spot & so glad I found it via Yelp! Had the War Won Ton soup & Garlic Prawns with EXCELLENT service twice now with great consistency on both trips!!! One thing of important note is the cleanliness of this place, very rare to find such clean floors even under the tables, as I personally witnessed a worker on hands & knees cleaning under tables on the nice wood floor instead of old nasty carpet found in many noodle houses. Location is back in a small center not easily visible, yelp took me right there with help from google maps. I HIGHLY recommend a trip here, & Buellton is a nice little town to spend a little time in too! Time to hit the track, Zaca Station is motocross paradise!!! read more

Honestly we didn't eat here, couldn't get past the filthy, algae filled fish tank in the front. Ambiance really has so much to do with a restaurant and if they can't maintain their filter what else is lacking? People eat with their eyes. read more

One of the best place to dine in when you are in the area. Very friendly staff! A 9.5 out of 10!!!! Would come back here for sure when we go to Solvang and Chumash area in the near future! read more

China Panda - Nice ambiance and good food! - Chinese Near Me - Buellton, California

I've lived In solvang my whole life and I got to say that this is the best Chinese restaurant. My boyfriend and I go out to eat at this place every Sunday. The employees are really polite and always remember what we like to order. The chicken chop suey is by far the best one I ever had. And to top it all off the prices are affordable :). read more

This isn't the first time I've dine here. Whenever we drive up to Monterey, we usually stop by Solvang to gas up and have lunch and the last couple of times we came here the service has gone down. Our first times here we were fortunate to have the manager here. He was very accommodating and smiles, but the last 3 visits has been a disappointment, especially since I kept telling my friends to stop here as well when they drove up North. They too have complained to me that it's not at all how I described it. I have no qualms with the food. I think it's good, but it's every time I walk in here. The waiters are too quiet and every time I come here It's not really busy. After the initial greeting at the door that would be the last time I would hear them. So the guy with the "hair" who I'll call K pop, the young lady with glasses, and a new face, a young Hispanic lady were the ones today. As I put the menu down all K pop did and Girl with the glasses did was stare at me. I tried to flag down the young Hispanic lady, she saw me then pretended she didn't and proceeded to help girl with glasses with 2 more settings on the other table. Eye contact and flagging down with hand gesture didn't work. The reason for the nick names, they were not wearing any name tags. Already a bad sign. So as I'm happy most folks are delighted to dine here for me it was a no choice. It's the only Chinese restaurant near the 101 exits. Will I be coming back? Perhaps. Like I said I have no qualms with the food. read more

Great service! Food was delicious too! We had orange chicken with so much flavor, probably best one I have ever eaten. We also had the almond chicken. Also very good, all white meat read more

Visiting Solvang for the holiday and needed to eat something quick and near our hotel (that wasn't fast food). China Panda was perfect. We ordered wor wonton soup, BBQ pork fried rice, chicken and mixed vegetables, and egg rolls. Prices were good and so was the food. It was a little hard finding the place for us out-of-towners, but overall the food was good. read more

This is a good Chinese restaurant with friendly staff. I'm surprised that there is not much yelp love! I usually order the egg foo young and hot and sour soup. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are very big! read more

The food was good and we also had chicken and sizzling rice was pretty good. First time eating the soup

The food here was authentic, delicious but a little bit over priced, considering the fact that the servings were not big enough. There were two things that I didn't like about this place. Firstly, a 20% gratuity was added automatically, but the service was not good enough to make me believe that the waitress deserved it. Secondly, this restaurant didn't provide printed receipt. They only had the hand-written one instead! read more

AMAZING FOOD! The only place that I know of that delivers Chinese food in the area and it's surprisingly good for the price. I love the staff and will recommend this place to everyone! read more

There are not many options for Chinese food in this area. We chose this place rather than the Panda Express across the street. This place is huge but there were only a few tables of customers during dinner time. We saw most people were ordering take out. We ordered five dishes and they were all okay although a bit on the salty side. Service was good. read more

I was going to try this restaurant and was coming from afar. I was going to spend some good money for a pickup. It was a halfway Mark to my long drive and was relying on being allowed to use their restroom for my pit stop. They told me the restrooms are not open due to COVID ... WHAT?!?!? Restaurants like this should be closed if they do not allow PAYING CUSTOMERS to use their facilities. Good luck China Panda BUELLTON on staying afloat to treating a paying customer to be like that. SHAME ON YOU!! read more

This is my new favorite Chinese place when I come visit the area. I've had one of the best Chinese food meal of my life. The rice is fresh and not greasy. The shrimp sizzling rice soup is delicious! The Mongolian beef and Orange chicken are very tasty and not too salty or greasy. Highly recommended, especially when you need a break from all the deliciousness of the nearby bakeries and danish food! read more

The BEST Chinese food I have ever tasted! Everything was delicious I am from LA but I'm going to come down more often and always stop by

Don't bother ordering through Yelp (the restaurant doesn't receive the order), so better to call them if you're doing takeout.

Pretty good place to eat! The staff were extremely kind and patient with us. Thanks to them, we were able know that we couldn't finish one of the dishes because it was too big. The dishes are very delicious! If you ever see this place, I highly recommend you to go there! read more

Food was average at best. Person who took our order made us feel dumb when we ordered. We had a large order ... she said we ordered too much ???? Isn't that a good thing for your business? Tell you the truth, the portions were small, minimal amounts of meat in the entrees, mostly vegetable fillers. Never again! read more

We are consistently happy with everything we order here. The employee who delivered our order on 8/1/17 was so incredibly friendly and made a lasting impression that has made us loyal customers. read more

The food here is delicious. I loved the BBQ Pork Fried rice. I have never been to a Chinese food restaurant where they add a lot of meat to their fried rice. I throughly enjoyed this. Some places don't like doing that and I'm happy China Panda did this. The staff was nice and greeted me when I walked in. They had smiles on their faces and were personable. I definitely will come back here again. Food tastes great! read more

This is the best Chinese place i have been to so far. My wife and i ate here for our honeymoon and its wonderful. the staff was friendly and even late at night they gave us time to order. I ordered a family meal includes wonton soup, egg roll, fried dumpling,... and a kung pao chicken with white rice, and a separate fried rice. Everything was good, especially the fried rice was really tasty. Family meal costed $15 each person, so it's reasonable. We will come back here again when we visit Solvang again. read more

The menu is expansive and the quality of food is on par with larger cities. Pricing is reasonable for quality/portion size and the service is great. It's always clean and there are plenty of staff available to refill water, bring extra siracha, whatever is needed. read more

Edible but they are the smallest portions in the world ! Not even close to family style . Come if you eat like a bird only.

The food is very good and delicious! They cook very good Sichuan style dishes! If you can take spicy then you must must order mapo tofu! read more

Lompoc folk!! It's is great! Come here! Tasty food, good size dining room, and just on the way home for take out!

Good spot to stop by and enjoy lunch specials they have on t he menu. Service was good and it was pretty quiet when we went In but picked up a lil later. Defentiley a place to try out if in the area read more

The food is pretty good and it's nice they deliver. I wasn't too stoked on the styrofoam container, but I just know how harmful it is to the environment and our health. They don't have msg, so that's a plus. The prices are pretty high- $20/per minimum and the portions aren't huge. I'll order again from them, but only because that is the only option on town besides pizza that delivers. However, I really like the lunch special. The restaurant is really clean too! I met the owner and he was really nice. I'll go back! read more

Yelp menu had different pricing than restaurant menu. When AO brought up the discrepancy of $2, the lady up front just noted that their online menu has been updated. Not the case since small hot & sour soup is reflected as $7.95 & not $9.95 per their menu. Never paid $10 for a small hot & sour soup. Ridiculous & almost misleading to not honor the pricing noted on line or make sure they up date it. read more

The China Panda is a top Chinese food restaurant. The staff is very friendly, the food is hot and it tastes great and the price is very reasonable. I will definitely go there again when I am in the area. However, it was rather hard to find. read more
