I'd give it zero stars if I could. There were two cockroaches in the women's bathroom. The trash can was overflowing with food to the point where you couldn't put your food anywhere and the men's bathroom had no soap in both dispensers. ( good to know the men using the restroom at work, had clean hands). read more

Came here almost closing time after driving 4 hours from Norcal. Juan, the manager (I asked for his name from a crew), was extremely kind and very courteous. He let us finish our meal and allowed us fo stay even after closing time. We didn't stay that long though, but we appreciate the gesture and consideration. While eating, I have witnessed how meticulously the staff cleans the kitchen and the dining area and thought this mist be a clean branch. I am not from Lebec, but will always come back when I'm in the area. Thanks for the kindness! read more

Was just denied service. Due to the manager not liking my face covering. My entire face was covered from ear to ear but was told that they would not serve me as i would have to walk through the drive through? Poor management read more

Not fast enough for such a busy place they need to be quicker and bigger, I think they should have it bigger and would get more business read more

Panda Express - Super buisy. It's good food but I hate long lines - Chinese Near Me - Lebec, California

I GOT FOOD POISONING I just gotten my food when I was on my lunch and first off I was eating when I realized there was a hair on my orange chicken. I stopped eating and I felt really sick to my stomach. I GOT FOOD POISONING. I am in bed right now dying of this food poisoning. read more

Customers were being treated extremely badly. Although we bought the food and it is within store operating hours, they refused to let us use the restroom. read more

Wow. Panda Express next to Route 5. If it wasn't for that arguing post-paint ball family reminding you that your are in the Valley, you could be just about anywhere. Bathrooms are clean and the service is speedy. read more

Food was good. I love their orange chicken. Yum Yum Num Num. Employees were friendly. read more

I gave Panda Express another try. I had the chicken eggroll and their Kung pao chicken entree. The chicken eggroll was flavorless. Don't waste your money on that. The food is bland overall as always. read more

Not a lot of food options an hour into opening, customer service wasn't the friendliest. Otherwise this location doesn't stand out amongst other Panda Express. read more

Fast and friendly. Wanted eggplant but wasn't displayed. Mgr Bernardo had it cooked up for us - Very appreciated. Tables were dirty, but overall experience was solid. read more

One star added because of the drive-thru. Other than that, the food i.e., fried rice and teriyaki chicken, was bland and didn't have any taste to it. read more

Food was fresh, warm and tasty. Check your receipt, they added a donation without my knowledge

I am EXTREMELY disappointed with my experience. I have always loved Panda Express but this visit has now ruined it for me... I ordered 4 plates (which totaled out to around $45) and as I was eating my food I physically had to pull out a long black hair out of my chow main noodles. I was absolutely disgusted!! I walked back in and simply asked if there was someone that I could talk to about being refunded for my plate. The manager was rude right off the bat, and was hesitant to giving me my money back even though my food was still warm. She insisted that I needed my receipt and I told her that I threw it away and she gave me a very annoyed look and after questioning me she FINALLY gave me my money back. Very poor customer service and I will NOT be returning to this panda anytime soon. read more

Their safety procedures for coronavirus work really well, especially when compared to how a lot of other restaurants are handling this. We got our food very quickly and it was just as we expected it to be. The employees that helped us were very thoughtful and patient. Thank you! read more

Before I ordered I asked the drive-thru lady, "is it fresh?" She said YES. I believed her because the restaurant was busy. The reason I asked is because I've had the entrees before when they just sat. They become really soggy and mushy and not fresh and crunchy. I recieved my meal and tasted it as I was driving and good thing I did because it was terrible. I went back and got my money back. I was just passing through from Sequoia national park to San Diego but I will never eat here again. read more

this panda gets a lot of i-5 visitor traffic. i thought what was going to be a brief stop at panda to fill my stomach turned into over 30 minutes in the line because they are SO SLOW. the restaurant had a weird stench but too bad i wasn't in the mood for chipotle next door. if you're in a rush i suggest to stop by other "fast food" places. read more

Only been here for quick stops on the way to LA to get a bite to eat. We usually like to start heading out of town and stop at this truckstop area for munchies (usually drive thru different fast food stores). Stopped here and dined in once. Not very busy but there was a short line and it went pretty quick. Service was friendly and efficient. The place is clean. I noticed they have a staff making sure the place is clean picking-up/sweeping the floor and wiping the tables the whole time we were there. I also noticed that they were consistent about asking each customer if they would like to sample anything as you go through the line. I wonder if this is a new spiel the company added for all their franchise. I've been to other Panda Express before but never really heard the staff ask that. I thought that was pretty cool though... in case you want to try something new or different from your usual favorite but don't want to get stuck with an order that you don't really like. read more

Panda Express - Chinese Near Me - Lebec, California

See all

I want the free entree. Their walnut shrimp is better than the pacific one, I also got the beef and broccoli and chowmein on the plate. :)

Do not come here if you have little kids. No changing table, and only 1 high chair. Food is as is always is at panda.

When your only other option for miles and miles on a road trip are McDonalds/Carls/etc.....Panda Express starts to not look so shabby. This place, and the surrounding businesses, are more of a rest stop for the weary traveler than anything else. read more

I like Panda but the Managment here must train the employees to short change the customers barely fill the sections of the Togo container. Greedy owners read more

Order teriyaki chicken. Ended up that they ran out of sauce but didn't bother to tell its customers. When asked for it, was told it would be 3 more minutes. Turned out 30 minutes passed and tbeu didn't even bother to tell us that it's ready but instead offered to another customer. What a bad management! read more

If you're just too tired or frustrated from the slow drive over the Grapevine (not certain why the traffic is slow going down hill though) then you might as well stop here. This is one of many choices at this stop, it's a bit better than a fast food burger. read more

Older hispanic lady is rude, if you can't work with people don't work at all , and don't raise your voice at customers when they can't hear you not because they are ignoring you! read more

Standard "Chinese" food. If you're craving rice in the middle of I-5. Can get very busy during lunch hours. Food is consistent with the other stores. read more

I came here for lunch on my way to San Diego and I enjoyed the food that I ordered size was pretty good size makes it a great deal great value they had TV or you can watch the Raiders game which was nice also plenty of seating it was a little warm outside with their air-conditioning inside was working well plenty of parking outside Will definitely come back read more

I thought it was so good. Hot and fresh!! Right off the 5!!! Chowmein/Fried Rice, Orange Chicken, Broccoli Beef, and Spicy Chicken. It was my brunch, and the first meal of the day..... and it really hit the spot. read more

I've always liked Panda Express, and have been eating there for years. This location is not up to par to their usual standards. The food was horrible, and their reaction to my complaints were equally bad. I would never ever go here again. It was all so gross. I ordered fried rice, general tso's chicken and honey walnut shrimp. I tried the honey walnut shrimp first. It was mushy and gross. When I put one in my mouth it was liked mashed potatoes, literally. So I got back in line and politely asked if they could replace it since it was mushy. The young man serving took the whole tray from me and poked it with his finger, and apparently found it was indeed mushy and gestured over someone who appeared to be in charge, a woman with dark hair. The woman asked me kind of rudely what was wrong with it, and I said it was mushy and inedible, and that I would like it replaced. She made a face at me as if she didn't understand so I said it again, louder. She was not nice, or apologetic at all. She was acting like I was crazy person acting unreasonable. I then had to wait about 15 - 20 minutes for the replacement shrimp. I was thinking, are they hoping I just give up and leave? I tried the other food as I was waiting. The rice was bad. It tasted ok but there were hard unchewable grains of rice mixed throughout, so I eventually gave up on the rice as inedible. The thought occurred to me, is this that plastic rice I heard was coming out of China? Couldn't be -- or could it? I usually love the general tso chicken so I thought, at least I have that and started eating that. Unfortunately, amidst the decent tasting pieces were 2-3 pieces which had chicken that was so tough, I wasn't sure what it was. I pulled off the breading and poked it with my finger. It looked cooked but was so hard my teeth couldn't tear it. I tried to poke my finger through it and could not. Just gross. I can't even imagine how one could make chicken with this texture. It was like hard rubber. Wondering if I should call the health dept. or something on that one, I mean, what the hell was that? Eventually I got replacement shrimp brought to me with a bad attitude on the side. It was decent. It should surprise no one that I felt terrible after eating here. Stomach was upset like crazy. read more

Extremely disappointed by this panda. First of all, extremely slow, went to the bathroom and came back and we were still in the exact same spot in line. We stood there for 15 minutes and the line had not moved. Secondly, I passed out in this restaurant and the employees walked over the top of me. Not one employee asked if I was okay as I laid there on the floor of their so called "restaurant". When I woke up I saw my friends shaking me and an employee stepping over me to get out the door to deliver food to someone eating outside.I don't expect them to get on their hands and knees and check on me but a simple "are you okay" would suffice. I would give them a zero rating if it were possible. read more

Hopefully, the GM @PandaExpress will return rx glasses to owner/customer as promised. After 3 weeks of waiting, sending pre-paid package for return postage, returning in person to pick up glasses only to find empty box. Very disappointed with the integrity of this franchise. Please do the right thing and return glasses. read more

Got to love a drive through panda express. I stop by here on all my roadtrips on the way back to LA. Best place to stop before heading over the grapevine! They don't have any vegetarian options really but the chow mein and fried rice was a tasty snack. read more

Another option while on the 5. Same experience as any other Panda Express you might frequent.

It's pretty crowded here, but I was hungry and I ordered the jumbo shrimp bowl. It was gross. Too much sauce it was just overpowering and I couldn't eat it. The food didn't taste fresh either. It's expensive for chinese fast food too. I should have went to In & Out. :( read more

Stopped by on the way to LA and unfortunately got here right after several buses unloaded. The line was TERRIBLE. Literally at least 30 people in front of us but I give them props because the line was consistently moving and you can tell the workers were hustling to get to everyone as soon as possible. You could also see the chefs cooking up a storm in the back to make sure the food didn't run out and nobody had to wait extra for any item. The food was fresh since it was just prepared. read more

When you are bored on I-5 and craving chinese food, it is the closest thing you will find to it. I got there right in time just before a bus load of Chinese tourists jampacked this place. Tastes the same as any other location but the fact that it settled my craving deserves five stars. read more

This place was so busy! Plan to wait in a long line for food, although it did seem to move fairly quickly. My only complaint is that there isn't enough seating. Eating outside in the summer when temps are in excess of 100 degrees, is NOT an option. Food was just ok. Employees were courteous. read more

Restaurant was clean and good service but was disappointed in the food. The substituted corn for egg in the fried rice. Simply aweful. How can they even call it fried rice when that disk expects egg for flavor. Instead they replace a protein with a starch. And what happen to the sweet and sour pork? No pork at all. So many other options in Lebec that I most likely would not return unless this changed. read more

People can pan this place as just fast food jobut on the long I-5 drive, it's a reasonable healthy place to eat.

I'll start by saying that I'm a Panda Express fan. Their food is consistently fresh and tasty. We had the General Chicken and Green Bean Chicken. Both entrees were really good. The chow mein was disappointing, cold and flavorless. Bummer! Will I go back to Panda? Oh heck yes. I love them. Just not this one. read more
