Food cold. Small portions. No free refills for your drink. 50 cents more for that, absurd. read more

Panda Express, the best part of DIA. Seriously. Their orange chicken at even 6 am in the morning is delicious. read more

Dig this place so much that we had it TWICE! To and from flying to Cali. In Terminal A, this place is as good as it gets for fast grubs. (Your other choice is Mickey D's--I won't set foot in there). NO lines--very expedited service. No non-sense place: you get a plate, chose rice or noodles, then choose 2 (or 3) side items. Actually, side items are where it's at, so I gave the rice to the bf. ;) Def get cream cheese RANGOONS--gawd, can't get enough of those. Orange chicken was also yummy--lathered in sweet sauce like sesame chicken. Eggrolls = eh, I've had better. Ooh, now they also carry Izze soda in Blackberry--a delightful, guilt-free way to wash down those scrumptious rangoons. Did you know that Izze uses no sugar except what's there in the fuit juices? Airport food is like mall food: often an over-priced indigestion with scarce veg. or gluten-free options. Until the glorious near-future day when airports have juice bars and raw meals, Panda makes it bit easier on the heart(burn). ;) read more

I don't know why I do this to myself and get Panda Express every once in a while but I had gotten off the plane and I was hungry. The general tso's chicken was mostly breading and the noodles I got were a bit dry but all that salt made it taste so good. Service was a bit confusing with three people working conveyor belt style and no real line. read more

Why the one star? Any Chinese restaurant that serves what looks like vegetarian options - tofu and eggplant, veggie spring rolls, mixed veggies, fried rice - should make an effort to make those choices vegetarian. They cook all veggie options with chicken broth and don't clean the wok between dishes, which is disgusting even if you are not vegetarian. If you are vegan or vegetarian, stay away from this NASTY food court restaurant. Not that there's much else to choose from, but consider this a fair warning so you don't get sick. Denver - and Colorado in general - are moving in a progressive direction food-wise, at least in certain instances, but you wouldn't know it from the dismal, run of the mill and generally unhealthy restaurant choices in this otherwise lovely airport. read more

Very bad. They ran out of pretty much everything. I didn't get my fortune cookie. Very sad.

Pretty much the only appetizing thing in that part of the airport. It was okay, nothing special, but it hit the spot before my flight.

COCKROACH. Quickly read the reviews before writing this and read "food poisoning" and that makes sense. I was about to pay and I pointed out that there was a bug to the cashier, she asked where and was not in much of a rush since she seemed grossed out. It went from the cash register to the packs of their sauces. As she tried to grab it, it fell between the lids of the drinks. Then as she tried to grab it, the lids fell on the ice area. She threw away the roach with a napkin, grabbed the lids back and placed them back to the stacked pile. That's about four contaminated locations that I saw this bug in but who knows what other items and foods it had touched. She didn't even clean these area or anything. Her coworkers giggled on the side as she struggled to catch it. This sounds like a typical day for them. Absolutely disgusting. You should not be in business if this is the gross environment you work and SERVE the airport. read more

So you're stuck at Denver and you're wandering around for food. There sure aren't many options and paying for an expensive sit down may or may not make sense since prices are already inflated anyways with a captive audience. Stuck between the choices of McDicks, KFC, and Panda Express, I went with the Americanized Chinese food. I've got to say when I came here all the food looked like it was freshly cooked (I suppose I came right at peak lunch hour). I ordered a kung pao chicken, beijing beef, spring rolls, and fried rice. With a drink the total was about $10.00 which is absurdly expensive but hey you are at the airport. I suppose it's better than the $8.00 sad sandwiches I saw at LaGuardia. The Beijing beef was actually spot on in terms of flavor although in a real Chinese restaurant it wouldn't have been these thin strips of beef. The kung pao was alright but at least it had fresh veggies in it, definitely the quality of the chicken was.....sub par. I love spring rolls and I would have to say to definitely avoid them here, the filling was terrible. They were most definitely frozen and fried rather than being made on site. One complaint, I asked for a small soda and they gave me this behemoths 32 oz monster of a drink. Seriously? I ended up throwing away at least half of my drink after I was done eating. So rather than feeling like total crap from eating KFC or McDonalds, I would suggest opting for Panda Express if a sit down restaurant isn't for you. Yeah it's a little more expensive and it may not be a "healthy" option, but at least my stomach wasn't churning afterwards. read more

Why do I even need to review this place? If you haven't eaten at Panda Express, please crawl out of your cave and climb some bamboo. It's one of those places you go to because you crave salt and fat, but not cream. It's cheap, fast, satisfying. Now, there are some quality differences between the Panda Expresses of the world. In general, you want to choose the items that look like it was just cooked. Nothing worse than a Panda Express without any customers, because that food will sit there forever. You should get the 2 or 3 entree combo...best deal. My favorite dishes: - Beef with Broccoli - Orange chicken - Cucumber chicken Where they get you is the add-ons: spring rolls, desserts, bottled drinks. Otherwise, makes for a nice $7 dinner. read more

I keep giving these guys a try because I love the food. However, when I pay the extra for the Premium Angus Steak at least put a full serving on the plate. I am so tired of them giving me small servings of the "premium" and tons of the mushroom chicken and chow mien. It's why I used to eat Panda weekly to just when I'm stuck at a airport now. read more

I generally love Panda Express but this airport location was a HUGE disappointment. During my layover I decided to grab some food, and I wasn't feeling your typically burger or fried chicken so I decided on Panda Express. It was pretty early in the morning, 7:34 AM to be exact, so there is no reason why they're food should taste like it's been sitting out all day. Chow Mein was EXTREMELY oily and had 0 flavor. The orange chicken had no trace of their traditional flavoring and seemed over cooked, hard and stale. Don't do it. Don't eat Panda Express in the Denver airport. It's bad enough being charged a premium due to the airport, but for food this crappy. No. Don't do it my friend. WALK AWAY. read more

Gross location for Panda Express. Their orange chicken was oddly white cracked on the outside like it was old. And the servers were very unkind to an elderly couple asking for a bowl. The server told them, "mam we don't have bowls so don't ever ask for them". How are we supposed to know, put up a sign if you don't want to hear customers ask for bowls. Listen to me DO NOT GO HERE. Look at their rating, it's horrible. read more

It has been an unusual travel week. Between Amtrak, planes and rental cars, there has been plenty of ground covered. In my travels, I have had the opportunity to experience Panda Express at both Albuquerque and Denver airport. While this was certainly not something I planned, it seemed to be fortuitous in my review experience...and I was greatly motivated by the firecracker chicken I experienced in Albuquerque. As expressed in other reviews, it is standard Panda Express...and when the orange chicken is fresh, you cannot go wrong. At Denver's airport location, I tried the same combination of the chow mein, orange chicken and firecracker chicken. Once again, I was anticipating tangy sweet and snappy hot. As I had placed my order at 1 PM in Denver, I was anticipating hot and fresh, as the location was busy. Being handed a styrobox of food that felt hot on all points of contact, I was hopeful. I had more time in Denver, so I sat down outside the restaurant. The firecracker chicken was, once again, the hit of the meal. With red and yellow pepper, onion, chili, chicken and sauce, the only thing missing was significant spice from chili. What I anticipated as a 5 on a scale of 10 was delivered as a 2. Thank goodness for sriracha, once again. After I enjoyed the firecracker chicken, I attempted to find pleasure in the chow mein. The noodles were dry and had very little more than noodles. This was, as previously experienced, a presentation that had time to sit under the warming lights. I endured only 1 forkful and then moved on to the orange chicken. This, too, was a victim of sitting too long under the heat lamps. The breading had dried out to a crunchy consistency on most all of the presentation. The order was $1.50 more expensive in Denver, and between the orange chicken and the chow mein, this location deserves no more than 2 stars. read more

Black pepper chicken hurt my stomach and they refused to exchange it. So waste of money I should've just gotten the bowl if I would have known their chicken was bad. read more

Not overpriced as most airports but food was cooked awhile ago probably 2 hours prior... the staff was nice but the food was just so-so. Nothing to write home about but then again its Panda Express not a Michelin 3-star restaurant... so don't expect much. read more

Chowmein was very Good. Fried Chicken is also yummy. Orange Chicken is too sweety. Overall Panda is okay, but not of great taste. read more

They aren't following the chain recipe for chow mein properly. I eat panda all the time and I am used to the consistency. The manager needs to check on their staff. read more

Got the beef and broccoli. When I opened the container there was only about 2 oz of beef on a small plate of veggies. I went back and the lady looked at it and said "thats alot." They did add more beef for no charge-like 2 oz. more. Watch these guys. I just want to get my monies worth! read more

Panda Express - Where's the beef? - Fast Food Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Extremely rude staff and the quantity served is very less. The noodles were dry and they don't have kids meal. Not coming here again

Before taking off, my gf and I got panda at this location. This one star review is more about the service and not the food. We decided to share the bigger plate (3 entrée, 1 side). At all the other pandas I've been too, they usually fill the whole large section of the container with noodles/rice. But this guy put one scoop of noodles. Leaving plenty of room. I was like wtf. Then he hands the box to his coworker. She's talking to her other coworkers and laughing up a storm. So much so that she almost puts the wrong entrée in our order. My gf had to get this ladies attention to put the correct one in. Since we got the bigger plate we had a third entree and I realize why the first guy was so skimpy on the noodles. It's cause they put the third entree in the same box. If I'm gonna pay for the same amount of food I should've just gotten the regular size. Every other panda I've been to puts the third entree in a small container. Also when we were rung up, the guy seemed offended we didn't want a drink. After sitting down, I returned to the counter and asked if he could fill my water bottle with ice water. He in turn said,"no, either buy a bottle or go to the fountain" I then had to walk to the restroom fountain where they have a bottle filler. Not that far away, but it was more about his response. read more

Got end of the night product,should have definitely been thrown out instead of sold,so disappointed!!

Noodles we're so dry I could barely eat them, and they were cold. orange chicken was overcooked and no real meat in them just batter. I don't expect much from a fast food chain but it be nice if it was edible for $13 read more

Careful when paying, cashier takes your credit card and charges you for more than you ordered. argues with you about how big the portion is and that she needs to charge for more. Ordered plate with two entrees and one side.....she charged me bigger plate 3 entrees and one side....RIPOFF! read more

This place gave me food poisoning!!! Never again eating here. I think they served me old food or not cooked enough, but I just got back from urgent care. read more

Poor customer service, I ordered black pepper chicken, all I got was celery and bell peppers and two tiny prices of chicken. I took it back and the employee laughed and said that's because you ate all the chicken. So never again Panda Express got my last dollar read more

Definitely got sick from eating there yesterday. Considering I only ate a granola bar for breakfast then Panda Express for lunch and had horrible GI issues a few hours later, which are still going on after 24 hours, it's pretty obvious who the culprit is. Will never be eating there again. read more

Do not go here. Most panda places are good. This one isn't. The attached photo is my bowl with beef and broccoli. As you can see there isn't any beef. Mostly rice. Not worth the $10. read more

Panda Express - Fast Food Near Me - Denver, Colorado

No problems at this Panda Express. The food is pretty good and they give you large servings for the meal deals and is probably one of the best deals you can find at an airport. This particular Panda Express is at the Denver International Airport. The staff was nice and, as mentioned, they served a good portion of food. I was appreciative of this since I was stuck at the airport for 5 hours and the meal kept me full until I was able to fly out. I'm a fan. read more

Ok chinese food. Really no competition. The chinese/asian concessions in SFO would be a 5 compared to this Panda Express. I just go there for hot chinese food when I'm traveling thru airport. read more

This particular Panda Express is located at Denver International Airport, not Northwest or Lodo Denver, as described. (Hey, I'm just going by the phone number on my receipt here.) And while it seems silly to do a review of Airport Food Court food, this place is always so reliable and delicious that I just have to break down and do it. Everything I've ever ordered here has been hot and freshly cooked, thrown together by efficient staff. The only problems you might encounter is that, due to the popularity of this walk-up, sometimes they run behind on resupplying the entrees and veggies. Even so, they'll mark your container for what you want and within minutes you'll have your food and be on your way. The food is great. Just don't try hauling it onto the plane, because you'll definitely want to sit at a real table to eat it. :-) read more

Ugh. I hate eating in airports. The food is always way overpriced and the quality is always borderline inedible.....unless you want to pay $30 at a sit-down restaurant and have the time for it. Case in point - Panda Express. How on earth does a Chinese restaurant mess up Chow Mein? I'm pretty sure they just use regular spaghetti pasta, and not only is it bland, but also manages to have a nasty processed flavor to it. I had to add all the sauces they provided just to make it bearable. And why do they advertise serving Eggplant Tofu when they never have it? They always have 8+ meat entrees; would it kill them to provide just ONE vegetarian?? Overpriced, disgusting "Chinese" food. read more

The worst Panda Express I have ever visited. The servings were small and the meat was dried out. Very disappointed

After a night if drinking and an early 3 hour flight, we were looking forward to good greasy food. Instead I'm eating yesterday's left overs it appears. $20 out the window and I'm going to go somewhere else with hopefully better results. read more

Can't expect much from a panda express at a airport, but dang that was gross. The noodles weren't cooked and everything tasted like it had been sitting out all day read more

The guy that got me my food while I was ordering was extremely polite and when I was getting rang out the manager went out of his way to come over and help me which was really cool. The orange chicken was very good as well. read more

Panda is usually one of my favorite! With the exception of this location! They rip you off on the bigger plate the portions are so small they all fit in one plate!! What happened to the extra side on the small box???? Thats false advertisement when the side shows on the menu. You're franchise why are you not the same as all others!! Customer service is awful older women wearing a blue t shirt doesn't even greet the guests, cashier is too busy talking to other employees I'm just there waiting to get charged. read more

One of the better pandas I've tried. The chow mein is awesome and I'm a big fan of the Beijing beef. Some dishes are super greasy and some chicken is fatty, just be sure to look at it before you order it. read more

It's my first time to try Panda Express today. I was starving when I arrived at Denver Airport and being an asian, rice is life for me. It was a good thing Panda Express serves rice! I liked everything. From the fried rice to the entree and side orders, it felt (and tasted) like home! read more

Never eaten at one was these and was surprised. Steak, beef/broccoli, noodles, rice and orange chicken.... nice variety. I gobbled it up. Great for quick on the run. This may fall into my regular rotation at terminal A. read more
