Okay, after scoping out all of the other Chinese takeout places nearby, this is our go-to place. We've tried a decent amount of the menu at this point and our hands down favorite is the Mongolian Beef (quality steak with scallions AND white onions.) We also like the Hot & Sour soup, but it's no different than any other place. We've haven't opted to dine in, because there's not much in terms of ambiance. That being said, if you call to pick up, it's always only 15 minutes before you can pick up a piping hot dinner! read more

I want to start this review off by saying that the service is extremely friendly! Additionally the food was ready for pick up in about 10 minutes. Super fast. Aside from these things the quality of food provided was less than satisfactory. We got a large order of chicken fried rice and a large order of orange chicken for pick up on Friday at about 4pm. The chicken fried rice was just okay, not bad! The orange chicken is where it got really disappointing. The orange chicken pieces 80% breading 20% chicken. What little chicken there was in each piece was super... hard? Perhaps chewy would be a better word, and dry? Despite the sauce. It was almost undeniable that I was eating yesterday's, or even the day before that's leftover food. It was not fresh. I cook at home everyday, so when I do decide to treat myself to a break from cooking for the night, its really disappointing when I don't even wanna eat the food I spent $20-$30 on because its so bad. So I won't be ordering here again. read more

Great place for some awesome Chinese food. Service quick and attentive. It is in shopping center but worth searching for.inside not much to look at but clean beats ambiance. read more

Food is good and the to go service is super fast. Workers are polite! Never ate in the restaurant before.

My friend and I enjoyed lunch at Panda Gourmet today. We were welcomed as soon as we stepped through the door and seated immediately. I wasn't sure what I wanted as local Chinese restaurants haven't been as good lately. I ordered the shrimp lo mein lunch special. It was very good as was the service! My friend had chicken egg foo young and she said it was delicious. We will definitely return to the China Gourmet again!! read more

I used to go the emperor of china on Brady street , no more . I ordered chicken noodle soup to start , they used lo mein noodles , delicious, then the moo goo gai pan with two extra shrimp egg rolls , with a crust that melted in your mouth, handmade bliss. The portion was of a generous size made with fresh chicken containing crisply cooked vegetables in a thick white sauce, the restaurant was spotless with a very brisk takeout service. The dinning area while plainly decorated was pleasantly full of contented customers who were constantly fussed over by the efficient staff, this is my third trip of many planned for the future read more

One of the best spots in all of Milwaukee. My go-to spot for ordering take-out. Highly recommend.

Customer service is excellent. The sesame chicken has turned into breading or whatever they use to coat what is supposed to be chicken. So, the sesame chicken actually has very little chicken in it. Terrible, will probably not order from here again. read more

I've been here several times. Crab Rangoon is great! General Tso chicken was sooo good. Unfortunately my Chicken Fried Rice was not the best, it was hard like it was under cooked. Very disappointed. read more

Some of the best Chinese food around, especially around my house. Great and friendly service. Sitting here at home waiting for my wife and daughter to go there. read more

I've been meaning to review this place for some time, because it really is a hidden gem. It's at one end of a small strip mall. It seems to be a mom and pop kind of place, and some of my favorite Chinese restaurants have been that kind. I've mainly had their beef broccoli or some sort of lo mein, but my wife has been more adventurous and shares my high regard. We don't get that way too often since we live on the lower East side, but we do make a point of including a stop here in any plans that take us down 38. Like many similar restaurants, they seem to be mainly a take out place, but they have a nice row of booths and some tables, and the service has been fine. It's a very unpretentious place but worth checking out. read more

Panda Gourmet - Chinese Near Me - Oak Creek, Wisconsin

The service at this location is horrible. Lost my order. After 2 hours I never did see it and " they didn't know what to tell me". Will not deal with this location again. It's in dire need of some maturity to handle things better. Will not order again. read more

Edible = yes. Good = no. As someone newer to Oak Creek, I've been trying lots of local restaurants to find my "new favorites". Yelp rarely stars me wrong so seeing the 4 star average, felt Panda Gourmet was worth a try. I foolishly ignored the reviews referring to the fried rice as "rice-a-roni". Ease of ordering online was nice. My order was ready on time and was accurate. However, the food was not very good. The chicken fried rice was awful. It should have been called "onion rice". Where were the eggs, peas, carrots, etc.?? I've never had fried rice like this before and I hope I never do again. All you could taste or smell was onions. The only other vegetable in the dish was bean sprouts. For entrees, we ordered the General Tso's chicken and Orange Peel chicken. They were just OK. The breading was not very crispy or flavorful. The sauces were both sweet, which was expected. Even though the Orange Peel has peppers and is advertised as spicy, there was no spice to be tasted. They just missed the mark. Overall I will not be back to Panda Gourmet. Too bad because I really wanted to like them. read more

I'm editing this review because our visit today was somewhat flavorless. The price has gone up and the flavor has gone down. Not sure what happened. Also they did not restock with food with any urgency so bins were empty during our visit. The staff in the eating area was the same gal and very pleasant, helpful and attentive . But overall we were not as impressed as with precious visits. read more

Great service all the way around. Best experience I've had at any panda location! Food was fresh and place was clean.

I had high hopes for this place because it was one of the busiest Asian places I can remember in a long time and people kept coming in all for the buffet and I was the only one to grab a lunch combo to go. The place is nice and small that looked very clean with a friendly staff to greet you as you walk in. The buffet is either cheap or the best one in the area because everyone was eating it. I ordered the General Taos chicken lunch special with pork fried rice that has a choice side and I ordered the hot and sour soup. The General Taos chicken was not hot or spicy at all with the puffy dark meat style of chicken, thick spongy breading by the time I got it home. The pork fried rice was average at best with bean spread, half cooked onions and tiny pieces of pork mostly with al dente rice, not over cooked. The broccoli had some crunch left in it that I liked. Overall it was a solid average lunch combo but not one of the really great one and I thought it would be better judging by big lunch crowd. read more

Really nice food. Seemed fresh and stayed hot for our drive home to Bay View. And the portions were generous! We'll be back!

Their food is pretty delicious and hit the spot. This is probably enough food for at least a couple of meals. I like that the sweet and sour chicken has a hint of garlic in it. I am still on the hunt for sweet and sour chicken with green peppers, onions, and pineapples in it though. The vegetable fried rice had a nice variety of fresh veggies mixed in. The wonton soup broth was perfect, but I wish you could opt for an appetizer other than soup with the lunch special. Feels a little crazy eating soup in the heat lol. I'll likely be ordering from them again. read more

Always great food and service! We enjoy their combo dinners, especially Mixed Vegetables with either chicken or shrimp, the pork fried rice and egg roll! read more

I went here for take out to try a new Chinese place closer to home and I'll definitely be making this my new spot! I got a selection of my favorites to try (sesame chicken, fried rice, shrimp lo mein, and crab rangoons). Everything was warm and seemed to be cooked fresh. Flavor is good for Chinese take out. 10/10 recommend. read more

We seriously order from here at least once a week and we love it every single time! Our favorites are the fried chicken dumplings, crispy beef eggrolls, teriyaki chicken on a stick, and beef lomein. We quite literally have never gotten anything we didn't like--best Chinese in Oak Creek. 10/10 from us :) read more

Good staff and good food. Will be coming here again. The pork lo mein was extremely good. The noodles were nice and the sauce was good. Next time I come I will get more food to try more of what they have, what I did have was extremely good though. The restaurant was extremely clean and had enough spaces between the tables and booths to walk around without discomfort. read more

I was craving lo mein and Panda Gourmet hit the spot! For starters, the covid precautions they have taken are great. They've put up a plexiglass to protect staff and customers. We ordered the shrimp lo mein and Szechuan shrimp. Both dishes were delicious! I was worried that the Szechuan shrimp would be too spicy for my tolerance level but it was perfect. The variety of veggies were great and they were all very crispy. There was a good amount of shrimp in the lo mein, which I loved! The noodles were cooked perfectly. Definitely check this place out next time you're craving some Chinese food! read more

Panda Gourmet - Szechuan shrimp and shrimp lo mein - Chinese Near Me - Oak Creek, Wisconsin

We have stopped here and had carry out several times. Every time it is the same, great food. I am a stinker when it comes to 5 stars, but this one came close. The restaurant itself, it simple, not large, but it is in a strip mall so the size fits. The servers are very nice, and the food comes as fast as it could considering it is made to order. If you want the mustard sauce for your egg roll, just grab one from the to-go items near the door. Since Tai Ping closed in South Milwaukee it has been hard to find a good Chinese restaurant near our home. My sister referred me to this place and I am so glad she did. We prefer the combo plates, as it comes with an egg roll. You get your choice of white rice or fried rice. read more

I prefer to go to panda gourmet over the other Chinese restaurants in the area because I like the food better and they are family owned. Great food at a good price! read more

tl;dr would give it 3 1/2 stars because good service and decent selection for the price My parents absolutely love this place for it's lunch buffet. It's very reasonably priced. We usually go on Saturdays and are always greeted and helped with excellent customer service for the woman that greets and seats everyone. Although the place is smaller, it's always very nice and clean. The food is a fair variety - soups, appetizers like spring rolls, crab rangoon, lo mein, egg foo young, fried and regular rice and then all of your main proteins/entree dishes are also available. I usually like the sauteed mushrooms, the seafood/chicken combo (chicken, shrimp, baby corn, celery and more in a white sauce), sesame chicken, kung pao chicken and these little meat dumplings that come with a flavorful soy-based sauce. Definitely great portions for what you can get at the buffet, they're also bringing fresh product (check out the donuts!) out during the busy weekend hours. I wish they would have spicier options, but I realize may not appeal to the masses. Get yourself a fresh, hot sugar-covered donut and check it out. read more

My boyfriend and I ordered for our first time today. I ordered the Szechuan Chicken (pictured) and he ordered the General Taos chicken. this plate is comparable in taste to the kung pao chicken at panda express but without peanuts read more

Once upon a time they had buffet style dining. The food was fresh and bountiful. Great selection. I've gone once since they closed the dine in buffet. Food still good, just not as great a selection now. read more

It is amazing, friendly staff, the owners are so sweet and welcoming. I tell all my friends about this place. The food is fresh and delicious and huge portions for a decent price. They play peaceful music when you dine in, which I really like because music bothers me when I'm eating out with friends and family. I eat here often and my family gets get carry out as well often. (Btw The restaurant is also always clean the times I've been in that includes the restrooms) read more

This is the second time I've ordered takeout from here and after my most recent visit I decided it was time I write a review. I ordered the a large beef and broccoli, crab Rangoon, kung pao shrimp, and the crispy beef eggrolls. I placed an order right around noon and even with a large order they said it would only be about 10 minutes and it was! Everything was really fresh and tasted great! I think my favorite was the beef eggrolls, there's actually just ground beef on the inside of a thin crispy spring roll-though they are on the small side-more like mini spring rolls but SO good! The crab rangoons were a bit larger than normal, but also fantastic. The kung pao chicken was a little bland but unfortunately I forgot to specify "extra EXTRA hot" as I normally do. read more

For an take out style place the food was fresh and tasty. The service was quick and the prices were reasonable. Lots of good food for the money. Not much atmosphere to note but the tables were clean. read more

Never been disappointed with this place! Our go today are beef with mushrooms, wonton soup, chicken moo goo gai pan, sweet and sour combo and any of the fried rices. The almond cookies are a must as well. read more
