These guys greeted me as soon as I walk in and they keep the place very clean. Their customer service was great and offered me a beverage while I waited for my order. Great team here. read more

9pm, no outside lights, lobby closed to pickup deliveries, and over a dozen cars waiting in line not moving. Where is the manager?

I came to Panda Express just wanting to run in & run out after having a horrible trip to Walmart...lol. There was nobody in line when I got in, which was awesome !! I was out of there with my food in less than 5 minutes. When we ate our food at home it was hot and delicious !!! read more

I wanted Beijing beef, was told it would be 5 minutes. I took the teriyaki chicken. Sat down 1 minute later there was the Beijing beef being put in the food line. The teriyaki sauce tastes like salt. The orange chicken tastes spicy like it was the sweet fire chicken sauce was on it. This is the second time the food has been terrible. Will never go to any Panda Express again. If we want Chinese food we need to go to a real restaurant. read more

Wish I could give less than a one star review. We waited in the drive through fo45 MINUTES for cold, sub par food. That's a bunch of bs 3/24/19 UPDATE I Decided to give this location one more shot Ordered string bean chicken and noodles only to find a piece of plastic in my mouth while trying to chew my food. Now I definitely won't be back read more

This was one of worse experiences had at a food establishment in a very long time. Put in our order went and tried to pay but were told no had to wait for this other gentleman that came in after us. Next they started bagging up our food for him (because we actually were next not him), then got annoyed at us when we pointed out it was our food they were bagging up. Finally we got to pay and another worker who had confirmed that our food was our food started opening up our boxes for no reason when I again said that's our food (contents were written on outside of box so no reason to open) this worker snapped at me saying I know and stormed off...please then explain to me why you were opening it up for no reason. Finally eating spring rolls mushy inside and walnut shrimp so hard couldn't even eat it. But orange chicken was good that's why 1 star. Don't know about other locations but this one definitely over rated! read more

Came for lunch. Total shitshow of workers. If you can speak fluently in Spanish the servings were noticeably larger.

We waited 40 minutes for 6 small pieces of chicken. they lost our order. it's quite simple. two bowls the same. took our order 3 times and were quite rude when finally giving us our food. annoying asf read more

Don't bother ordering online. Better luck just standing in line. What a bunch of crap. 20 minutes past the time it was supposed to be ready and still waiting. I could have gone through the line twice. Turn off your online I'd you can't handle it! Finally get the food and it's wrong. Good thing I already determined no one knew what they were doing and checked it. Think stapling the bags will make people believe you did it right. We aren't stupid. read more

I wouldn't even give a 1 star if that was the option. Person working the drive through was FULL of attitude and very disrespectful after us asking a simple question and asking nicely. read more

It was a very clean restaurant and very speedy service. You have to ask for the code to get into the bathroom, but if you want to skip that, the code is 9595. The helpings were ample, overall, a very good meal, however a bit overpriced. It is a chain though. read more

I LOVE Panda Express so this review could be a little biased. I ate at this location 4 times for lunch while in the area for a week between 1130-1200. The food was always fresh and drive thru time quick. The staff was very welcoming and helpful both inside and out so with that, I have no complaints for earring an early lunch here. read more

haven't been here in a while and the customer service was so good and fast. When through the drive through and it was the easiest experience ever. The guy at the window named esteban was so nice and throughly gave high quality customer service. read more

Asian fast food chain. It is an alternative to the burger/taco/sandwhich choices for fast food in the area. I have eaten here a few times, each time has been similar to my recent visit. However last night, it was worse than usual. The 'server', if you can call her that, was whispering and I could barely make out what she was saying. When I pointed this out, she began yelling like I was deaf to the world. It was very rude. Just speak up. One thing that I have always noticed about this location is that they don't clean the dining area near enough. There is always lots of remnants of prior meals strewn about the floor, and the tables never seem to be wiped down. Every time I go here I have to wipe down my table and find a place where I won't set my shoes in food. Their newest 'creation' is Angus Steak that is stir fried. As far as taste goes, it was MEH. The steak pieces they used were tough and chewy. I won't get it again. I had chow mein, and it was cool. Not cold, but not hot either. If you are in a hurry and want something better than McD's or Taco's...you can always have a mediocre chinese meal here. read more

Meh, it was barely safe-warm and the spicy beef had been sitting for at least 30 minutes but the orange chicken...longer. The girl was so frustrated she actually asked if I knew if I wanted rice or chow mein. LOL, I asked for half-and-half. The peppered chicken was so peppered it made me wonder if it was last week's special and was preserved for tonight's serving. I almost ended this review without mentioning the starter sides. Pretty old stuff and I didn't finish the rice. I go to this place so infrequently so it matters not but I wonder what the kind of food the drive-thru folks get, or even care. read more

Good ole Panda. You are comfort food to me. I come to you when I really don't feel like anything else and have little or no motivation to attempt to cook for myself. Your Orange Chicken and Kung Pao Chicken always hit the spot. The accompanying side of chow mein always way more than I can eat, but I love it anyway. Oh, how I love your little fortune cookies with generic messages of good luck and promises of love and happiness. Not that I've ever had one come true, but one can dream while enjoying the crunchy goodness. read more

This is not gourmet Chinese. It is fast, a good value, and healthier than many other casual dining restaurants. Not sure what the other reviewer was hoping for when he went to a casual dining Chinese restaurant chain. read more

The food is what you come to expect. Definitely better than burgers and healthier too However I have never gotten worse service at a restaurant in my life 3 people behind the counter and had to ask for fried rice 5 times because the kept getting side tracked with either the drive theu or each other . It's a shame they can't train customer service here read more

The lady in the drive thru was super rude. She took my payment and handed my card back without my food, but I didn't hear what she said. So my girlfriend spoke up and asked what was said, but the lady said "I'm just waiting for you to drive off" and rolled her eyes at me. She didn't tell me where to park to wait for my food either. I'm just sitting in the parking lot for 10 minutes now, not sure what to do. The name on my receipt is Yolitsma. Very disappointed in the customer service.. read more

Absolutely disgusting dining experience. Dining area was filthy with food and debris piled high on inaccessible trash cans - blocked by floor mats piled on cans. All tables dirty. Floors with food, spills and debris all over. tables one would think were clean had been cleaned with dirty cloth showing dried smudge marks. I have pictures but don't know how to download. Stay away from this health hazard. Can only imagine what kitchen looked like. read more

Good but not the best. Me and my friend went to Panda to get some lunch. I was sadly disappointed to see that I was given the leftovers of the chow mein with all the VEGETABLES!!!! And everything els was good. read more

Great orange chicken, the server "Elizabeth" made me feel like a high school student facing the lunch line, monotone, hurried, and seemed very irritated to see me there trying to decide which combo to get. Also... THERE WERE FLIES! read more

Workers are extremely rude... they rush you at the ordering spot and never get the order right... this is the fifth time I have felt absolutely disappointed in the service and how shitty I felt after read more

I don't know if I can even leave 1 star. Terrible customer service. Called ahead for hours and told they were open until 9pm. At 7:36 with 5 or 6 cars in the drive through they told each car they decided to close early. All their signs were still on. So sad read more

They didn't return my card when I purchased food through the drive through. I called later and they said they indeed did have it in their possession. We later got a notification that there was a purchase of 249.99 at Best Buy from our card that was still at the restaurant. I called and they rudely told me that it was in the safe the whole time and they didn't know who was making these purchases on our card. When I told them I would press charges they said "go for it" very smug. It was frustrating, and very unprofessional. They've lost my trust and business! Processed a report with Salem Police since they didn't want to do anything about it. read more

Worst service ever. The teenagers who work here have no idea what they're doing and management is a pain. Don't expect any professionalism here. They're always our of what you want and the food is kept out way too long--stuff is stale most of the time. No one seems properly trained here. Place is a mess come lunch time. You get what you paid for and it's not much in return. read more

Probably the worst panda I have ever been to. Everything I come here there is a problem. My orange chicken being so hard it cracked my tooth, my chowmein being cold, only having broccoli sprouts no broccoli heads, the list goes on. Today my orange chicken is half cold and my fiancé got a bigger plate in which they normally do two sides in the plate and one side in a separate box, today they shoved all three sides in the plate and I don't really want all three sides mixed together with my chowmein... oh and he got half the amount of chowmein.... service is never good from the employees. I just can't seem to get a break with them. read more

Okay first of all let's have a lesson in customer service when you Obviously mess up my order of course I'm gonna be irritated all I wanted was some soy sauce and Teriyaki but that's too much to ask for don't cop and attitude with me about how where trying are best here I don't give a shit Apparently it's not good enough read more

We used to love this location but in the past 6 months it has steadily declined in service and quality of food. Today...this was their last chance to redeem themselves...a guy was helping the customers in front of us and at the same time, side by side, our server and this other server scooped into the orange chicken. The guys scoop was way over the top and he placed it next to the rice. The girl serving us had barely a level scoop and she literally knocked it against the container to let a couple of pieces fall. We asked if that was all she was going to Put in and she said "yes, one scoop". Not happy at all. There was so little mushroom chicken that I could see the bottom of the plate. The scoops they are using are about 3/4 inch deep and maybe 3 inches in diameter. They are flat on the bottom. This is not the way it used to be. Flavors have gone downhill. Used to love the chow mien but now it is flavorless as was the mushroom chicken. It is a joke to pay 1.25 extra for walnut shrimp when you only get 6 shrimp. When I asked her about that she said 7-8 shrimp. She did go back and put 1 more shrimp On. You used to have to wait in line to get served here, not surprising that the last couple of times there were no lines to speak of. That is it folks....you had your opportunities and you have blown it. Never again. read more

Great friendly people who greet you as soon you walk in. Making me feel right at home in the first second. Nice open Display counter as well as kitchen laid out for easy description and very easy to order wonderful place to have lunch or dinner with or without your family! read more

Panda Express - Great logo! Makes perfect sense to me now. - Chinese Near Me - Salem, Oregon

I went through the drive thru and the employee that took my order said it would be a wait for the food. I was really happy to hear this since that meant the food would be hot and freshly cooked! They were all awesome for doing that even after I went through the drive thru close to closing time. I had Beijing Beef, Orange Chicken and Shanghai Steak! read more

The food is not really heinous, but the service is. The drive thru is especially bad. Two times I have asked for soy sauce, and two times zilch. They should include it automatically, which they don't, so I asked. Maybe I should have asked in Spanish? A couple co-workers have had similar issues. I will not give the dump another chance. HongKong Phooy! read more

Placed an online order. Was a pretty simple order and they managed to mess it up. They gave me half-fried rice and half-noodles when I ordered only fried rice. When I informed the staff member they made no attempt to fix the issue even though I said I would eat it. They still should have made an attempt to fix it or an offer. She just nodded her head and started helping another customer. No sorry or anything. Other than that the visit was fine. read more

My daughter always wants to come and eat here so tonight I caved and went with her. Their new Garlic Chicken was actually pretty tasty for Chinese fast food. The place needed a bit of cleaning due to the dinner rush just ending but the food was piping hot and served fast. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here (Sushi To Go has them ALL beat!!) but I wouldn't count it out either if I am close by and craving garlic chicken. read more

Last time I left a review, I gave 2 stars. Customer service is only good after you complain

The car in front of me ordered a good 5-8 meals and rather than having them park, so cars behind them could get their 1 item, I sat and waited for 15 minutes. After waiting 15 minutes, I got my food and headed down the road. Going down the freeway, I noticed they didn't put a fork in my bag. My suggestions: If someone has a giant order, have them park and wait. That's pretty standard for any drive-thru Make sure you put forks in the bags before handing them over. read more

Food was ok, but my veggies were so raw that I had to finish cooking them when I got home :( plus my friends order wasn't the right one :(

There is never a problem with the consistency of the great Chinese fast food that they serve, but they always seem too rushed to listen when you are requesting something at the point of sell. read more

I used to love Panda Express... but they no longer serve POTSTICKERS, their chicken is inconsistent in quality, and their chow mein is dry and lacking in veggies. I'll find a new place to get my simple chicken, noodle and potsticker fix. Disappointing! read more
