There were 6 of us total, 5 adults and a baby. We shared two orders of the cream cheese wontons, a chicken lo mein, two sesame chickens, and a ham fried rice. It was plenty of food for all of us, and we even had leftovers. The food here is seriously so yummy. The sesame chicken is so crispy and I loved the lo mein. The fried rice lacked flavor to me, but my husband loves it with some soy sauce added. Their cream cheese wontons are good!! They have a Pepsi soda fountain, and their Diet Pepsi brew is good. I did feel like I was annoying the man by asking for a refill, and he didn't even fill the cup to the top. The service overall was intense and almost felt like I was in trouble. The inside is cute, and they have a good amount of tables. My only complaint is that some of the tables are filled with cleaning supplies and other restaurant items. Kinda ruins the vibe having those out, but I get it if space is limited. Overall, I highly recommend checking this place out. From what I've had, the food is great!

Their lunch is awesome and served with cup of soup, 2 dumplings, and your entree for ~$12. Besides the food items pictured I'd recommend the lo mein and Mongolian beef Red 8 will always be in our rotation.

"Potstickers". Really just fried dumplings. Dumpling sauce is a must. They should serve it EVERYWHERE.

As for the Spanish Fork Panda Express location, I think they do a pretty solid job! First, is there some kind of contest going on with the city to see who can design the worst parking lot? If so, can I nominate this one? There are some pretty rough parking lots in the area but I can give a plethora of reasons why this one should take the cake. For one, the drive through splits through the middle of the lot. This means, 87% of the people that park in the Panda Express parking lot, will be trapped in the lot for longer than they want to be. When we have went to this Panda Express location, it has always been popping. Good news, you can park in the Department of Workforce Services lot! Just kidding, no you can't. There are signs that threaten some kind of punishment if you do so. Getting in and out of this parking lot is like playing ring around the rosey but it's not nearly as fun as I remember it. It's more of a stand off and a bunch of Austin Powers' 97 point turns. In the times that I have visited this Panda Express, it has always been super busy and the line has been at the door. Honestly, I am a bit confused on how the line is supposed to be set up. Some people go through the doors to the right, other people hang out in the foyer, in line. The good news is, the line always goes by incredibly fast. I like their chow mein and their fried rice, but I typically like the fried rice more. The last time I got the fried rice, it was a bit chunky. I love that we can get 1/2 and 1/2 as an option. I always get the orange chicken, but if I had an all-time favorite, I would get the beyond orange chicken. I am so sad they took it away and I would be so happy if they brought it back. It was out of this world good. This Panda Express location does a great job saucing up the chicken and it was pretty great last time I had it. All in all, this is a pretty good Panda Express spot. They are great about putting the "express" in Panda Express and I have never had any issues. This is a great, quick spot in the area!

I have to second the other review on here on their take out packaging. It was very bad, 3 containers and 2 soups smashed into one flimsy grocery sack. The sauce from the lo mein leaked all over everything until the bag had a pile of liquid at the bottom and the egg rolls were mush. Seriously guys, work on your takeout game. The food that wasn't smashed, had leaked out or mushy was really very good and it's a pity they take so many cheap shortcuts to save a few cents on packaging. read more

They have four basic soup broths for your choosing, chicken, miso, pork bone and traditional Chinese hot and spicy. They have your usual proteins of beef, pork, chicken, fish, fishballs, meatballs, vegetables and noodles. Drinks were included in the price for dinner. They had a variety of ice cream bars for desserts. The family running this place seemed to be really nice people. They were happy to hear my broken mandarin. Anytime I needed something, they would provide it to me. There is a potential of cross contamination of the foods here. But, since this is Chinese hotpot, you will be fine if you cook everything to well done. Four Season was a good find for me in Provo. I wasn't expecting to find a hot pot restaurant in this city.

I went in after the typical lunch rush time around 2:00pm. Overall good ambience. The food could use some improvement for sure, though there are some alright qualities altogether I wasn't too impressed. For my order I got the Regular combo which includes 2 entrees + a side with the Mongolian beef, orange chicken, and Lo mein. Pretty common staples in take-out Chinese food. The Orange chicken tasted good and had some nice crispiness to it however I guess the heat lamps they keep it under aren't super strong or perhaps I just happened to arrive on the tail end of a previously made batch because a few of my pieces were lukewarm while some were barely hot. Liked the pineapples though. The Mongolian beef had an okay flavor but it was drowned in far too much extra oil and sauce. The thick cut vegetable in both meats were very pleasant tase wise but could be sliced a bit thinner to cook more thoroughly. I'd say tone down the oil and sauce to help crisp the beef/veggies better + slice the veggies a little finer and it'll have good potential. I was certainly not a big fan of the lo mein. The noodles had an okay-ish texture, chewy but also slightly soggy (again maybe I just got the last of the older batch). It also had the same problem as the orange chicken being pretty low temp by the time I got it. The main problem it had was it was far too salty. Every bite wasn't overly greasy but the salt flavor was way too strong. I barely got through about half of it before I called it quits. Normally I'd be a little more upset about the food quality but it was only $10 for a pretty full container of food so while it wasn't best food at least I got a good amount of it which for some people is part of the Chinese take out appeal. Not the best but cheap. I think I'll give it one more try and get a full plate of different entrees and try the fried rice but the dishes I got could use improvement. The service was nice, polite cashier/server who brought out my order with fresh Mongolian beef even though there was probably just enough left in the pan to fill my entree spot. Explained the menu items alright but could probably use just a little practice. She also offered me my drink options (fountain or bottled) and explained the sauces. At the end of the day Dragon Express hits the common bases of Chinese takeout but doesn't stand out for me in my experie
