    Teriyaki chicken with veggies and fried rice
    Bradly P.

    Located in the Las Americas Premium outlet shopping mall lays Panda Express right before you cross into the Mexico border! After a heavy day of shopping and walking throughout the mall we decided to swing in to grab a quick bite before we walked even more. The line seemed long running through the outside of the door but moved fairly quick. As we entered we seemed as if we were being rushed to order without even looking what they had to offer just to get the line going as to get the customers in and get them out as quick as possible. After briefly looking to what they had I quickly ordered my food. The line items they displayed were running low and a lot were out and there was empty slots with no food on it. We ended up paying for our food and sat outside on one of the tables they have to offer facing the border. The food was ok but nothing special as to where the beef and broccoli was cooked right and the broccoli was very green and vibrant while the meat was tender and sauced good. The teriyaki chicken was a little dry probably due to sitting on the cutting board waiting for the next person to order it to be sliced away while glazed with sauce. The rice and noodles were okay but nothing to extravagant about it. The temperature of the food wasn't piping hot but yet not cold but decent. We ended up having to go back inside to try to get a spoon but yet there was no spoon just chopsticks and a fork. Decent fast food for a quick bite on the go but just be prepared to have what you want in your mind before ordering because chances are you will probably be rushed when ordering but overall just A-OK in my books yet there our better Panda Express locations out there with more tastier food and customer service!

    Panda Express contacted me and sent me the free entree card for their failure to provide me with everything I paid for the first time. Although when I go to use it (at the same store that stole my money) for a 2 item plate they tell me it has to be three items. However they're capable of removing one of two items. TL:DR Panda Express will steal your money.

    Your typical American-Chinese fast food go to place.. This location is at the Las America's Premium outlet. Nice and tidy inside but not enough seating.. this isn't the first time I have stopped by for some lunch combo and every time I come in it's a hit or miss with the seating.. either all taken or lucky me I get to sit! They have their "panda tea bar" at this location and I tried their strawberry flavor tea and it was ok.. reminded me of something you can pop open in a can. Customer service is good. Try to get you in and out. Lines can be long if it's a busy day at the outlet.

    This is how their rice look ! Imposible to chew hard disgusting rice

    This is the worst Panda Express i have ever been to , their service is bad and food is old , it seems they don't replace the tray unless the food is 100% done . Food not fresh at all . I now still feel my stomach upset after eating their food . Hopefully they start doing some changes .

    Count your shrimp with this one! Horrible

    No line had to wait 5 minutes until girl gets 5 dishes reset! I'm in a hurry fast food right?? Then she hops me on the $3 extra shrimp. She said it was 7 per serving I had 5!!! Had to get another server to give me 1 more! Please get some customer service training! These girls earn too much!!! Won't be going back there again. Horrible

    Hmm.. What should I say first... Well, I ordered kung pao chicken, NOT kung pao zucchini... I only had 2 small pieces of chicken and the rest was zucchini. I went back in to show them my entree & actually gave me one side of kung pao. Also, my man's Beijing beef was too hard to the point where it was really hard for healthy adults to chew.. Service was good :) nice workers

    Thats the bowl i got.

    Valarie was rude. I usually go to panda for the big portions but I received a small portion of chow mein and i paid an extra 1.25 for the honey walnut shrimp and got 6 pieces. Im very upset Panda Express is my favorite food spot. After trying a bite it seemed like the food has been the same since the morning its 1pm. Try a different store next time

    Arrived on a Sunday afternoon at 1:20 PM. Five other customers, a respectful and quieter place…read more Four staff members working to handle all orders. Check-in ordering kiosk is available at the counter along with being able to order from a cashier. Menu on TV boards above the registers and also menu with photos posted outside. I ordered the mango coconut milk smoothie/less sugar and added boba, which was featured on their seasonal drink menu. Even with ordering less sugar, the mango and coconut made it very sweet so I would recommend perhaps almost no sugar the next time but I enjoyed it and it was still very good. I did not order any food items. Hours clearly posted on the front door with strip mall parking right out front. Comfortable seating with table space inside, would be good for groups, as well as single customers. Wheelchair-accessible entrance and restroom. Nice and relaxing atmosphere with floral tree as decor, flowers jetting over the ceiling of the general floor space and plants throughout.. Very clean with nice chill music playing.

    This was my first time visiting this location, and I must say that the quality of the teas is…read moregreat. Everything tastes fresh, and they offer a variety of options for everyone. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because of the poor customer service from one of the young ladies working there. She made my daughter and me feel very uncomfortable when we asked if one of the teas could be changed because it was too thick and sweet for my daughter's liking. Instead of simply trying to take care of the situation, she immediately said "NO" and made a disgusted face. Thankfully, Jeff stepped in, saved the day, and offered to make us a new drink. As a multiple-business owner myself, Jeff is exactly the type of employee I would want representing my business. He understood customer service and handled the situation professionally. Unfortunately, I can't say the same about the other young lady. Her attitude and facial expressions were completely unnecessary and made the experience uncomfortable enough that even my daughter felt as though she had done something wrong simply for asking. Great teas, and thank you to Jeff for turning an unpleasant situation around.

    I came here after I got my hair done and I haven't had anything to eat. I ordered two Roasted Brown…read moreSugar Matchas. They didn't have any alternative milk, only low fat and whole milk options. I also ordered half sweet but it tasted like full sweetness to me. Drink was powdery, I had a grainy feel in my mouth after every sip. Also the drink was warm, so it wasn't as cold as I would like it and most of the ice was melted. Not sure what was supposed to be roasted but didn't detect any roasted flavor at all. Boba was soft and chewy though. There's so many great boba options out there, I was disappointed with this experience. The cute little ear lid is a nice touch but I'd rather have a smooth matcha drink than cute packaging to be honest. Also, with so many matcha places in SD, this drink really falls short. Service was okay, the cashier seemed confused when I asked for alternate drink options and I had to repeat my order a few times, because he was getting the two matchas confused. Unfortunately, not one of my top choices for boba shops

Didn't get a hello when I walked in girl was just standing there waiting for me to order my drink. Drink was aiteee. I was expecting more flavor options but it seemed like they mostly are green tea and coffee based. Green tea isint really my favorite. Will I come in again? Eehhh prolly not I'll just go to seafood city and order something there pretty upsetting I been wanting to try this place for a while now :'(. I like my sd boba a lot better. And my vantitea on telegraph canyon rd better

I've been twice to the new location including its soft opening weekend. I would skip the somewhat overpriced spam musubi. It tasted good but it wasn't life-changing, which I sort of expected for the price. The couple times I went, I found the tables to be sticky so I'd watch out for that as well if you're dining in. The fruit sandos are good if that's your thing. I always find them to be too rich with all the cream and this place was no exception. I've tried all the savory sandos on the menu though, and they're solid. You really can't go wrong. The bobas are pretty good but don't compete with the elite boba shops like 3cat or momofuku. The corn hojicha is what I liked the most out of everything I've tried. Finally, service is average to above average. The person behind the register is usually a disinterested teenagers or 20-something employee but an older guy in the back, presumably a manager, tries hard to accommodate customer requests. So hats off to him.
