    a take out container of food on a table

    I didn't know panda had salads ?? Every time you get chow they don't ever wanna make more noodles so they just load you with cabbage. Had to tell them my order twice and the girl was just all giggly in the back. Zero stars

    All standard to-go doodaddery (fork, napkins, soy, cookie) included without me requesting anything.

    If Austin K from my receipt is the young man at the drivethrough register today, I would hire you! You get a whole star to yourself, sir. Drive through is pretty pokey; nearing ten minutes to get my food behind three cars and there were four more behind me when I pulled out just before 2pm. I like that they cleaned up the display board (if memory serves from so long ago) so the combo choices are clearer. Got a bowl (one entree, one side) of orange chicken with brown rice. Rice was dry like most fast food, sauce was pretty spicy. I don't hate really spicy, I just want to be able to taste the meat I'm eating for more than the first bite unless I'm debriefed beforehand. Cashier asked if I wanted to round up to the next dollar and give the difference to a children's hospital, which I did. He thanked me specifically for the donation at the time and again when he handed me my receipt. He was positive, friendly, so polite. There were two soy packets, a fortune cookie, napkins and a fork in my bag, all unrequested. Thank you, Austin! For seven bucks I am very full with leftovers, and I don't have that post-lunch food coma feeling I sometimes get when I indulge in fried fast food. This experience was better than I expected!

    Water spilled and left. Gross.

    What a mess!! Water all over the floor. Soda machine broke. Burnt food. Customers coming in angry about some smart comments made by employees in the drive thru. No manager on site and it showed. What a disgrace.

    This is NOT Teryaki sauce, it doesn't even taste good. Sad

    Great fast food, workers are always helpful I wish the servings were a little more. I like eating here when I'm short on time.

    Paid $10 for a decent meal...they didn't mention it came with food poisoning. I stopped eating when I tried the shrimp(it tasted like dirt.)

    Drive-through and outside dining are about the only thing that set PE apart from other places where you can get Chinese takeout to go.

    Good food. And the staff is always nice. Which is rare in the restaurant business these days...so it's quite refreshing and filling haha

    Love panda express. But this location was awful. Food was unedible. The only good thing about it was the service. Will never be back.

    Good food generally. Terriyaki Chicken is hit or miss and sometimes the sauce is boiled down and chunky (if it is even offered).

    When it was my turn to order, I was explained the differences between the orange chicken and the Beijing beef.

    Couple things folks. I give 5 Stars for M-F lunchtimes. Weekends it gets busy, it can get a little…read morehyphy in there, little crunk (3.5 star). They are pricey, but if you download the app they give a lot of free burgers/free chicken. Order by app on your way in for no wait. Ask for a cup of ice and they have filtered water, save ya a couple bucks. Eat good on a budget, that's Something Good--for sure. Staff and mgr on point, super nice in here.

    Today is a lovely Saturday. The clouds are wisping. The wind is howling and my dog is nestled up…read moreall at home as I was out on the town in San Marcos Texas. I was driving down the interstate furniture road and I gazed my eyes to the right only to be delighted by the site of a brand new Shake shack. I pulled into the parking lot, which was set up kind of odd. We need to get in contact maybe with the civil engineers who designed this parking lot as I'll give them a piece of my mind however, I was able to find parking pretty quickly. After parking, I walked up to the store as you walk in. It smells like a new house. The building is very clean. The interior is well maintained, though it has been open for a short amount of time to my understanding. One of my biggest pet peeves in today's world is the order yourself kiosks and if you don't like these, do not come here because that's all they have. My biggest frustration with these is that they ask for a tip now why would I tip a computer? The computer didn't do anything for me? Is this tip going towards AI funding? Is this tip gonna contribute to the mass global AI infrastructure building process?? I'm not sure but I do not like them. As I was ordering my food, someone who seemed like a manager came up to me and asked me if I needed assistance. I really appreciated that though I did not need assistance. We ordered our food $47.98 later!! oh my goodness talk about a overpriced hamburger!! after receiving our food I was somewhat disappointed that they do not have a self serve fountain machine because after some extensive research, I found that the operating cost of a self service vending machine machine soda dispensing machine is not that pricey . We received our food. The food was tasty though I was lacking some of my additional onion rings which I added for $1.49 something like that. It only came with like three tiny onion rings. The bacon was tasty. The french fries with the bacon was OK it's kind of heavy. I had to look for a restroom pretty quickly after visiting this establishment. That's typically a good sign though because I ate all my food. It just sat in my belly a little bit crooked. All in all food was pretty tasty. The soda pop was pretty good. The fries were pretty good. I would recommend this place if you're looking to pay a lot for a hamburger, but if you're not in and out is a better choice As always, thank you so kindly and so deeply for reading my very thick review. I hope you have a beautiful day. Today is Saturday so if you're reading this on Saturday, I hope you have a great Saturday. Thank you so much. Have a good day.
