I had dinner here and I ended up losing one of my new Samsung Buds pro 4. 2 amazing employees took the time to care and help me find my missing ear bud. They found it in the dirty linen that was ready to be sent out for cleaning. They went above and beyond for their distressed customer. I am so grateful and they gained a forever customer. Hope Panda Inn appreciates Matt and Kayla as much as I do! ​ read more

My son and his new bride had their wedding dinner in one of the rooms. It was a small intimate gathering. The service was perfection from start to finish. The food was flavorful and served hot. The staff worked effortlessly as they brought in the food and made sure to remove unwanted dishes. Penny the manager greeted us as well as made sure all guest were happy upon departing. This is my 3rd visit to Panda Inn. The staff is attentive, always smiling, wants their guest to enjoy themselves. read more

Went to Panda Inn for the first time and it was really good. We got the Kung Pao Chicken and shrimp fried rice, and both were solid. The chicken was tender, flavorful. The fried rice was fresh and had a good amount of shrimp in it. Everything came out hot and tasted fresh. The portions were good, the service was on point, and the overall vibe was nice and relaxed. Definitely better than your average Chinese spot. I can see why people recommend this place. I'd for sure come back and try more off the menu. read more

panda inn was honestly disappointing for me. i went in expecting an elevated version of panda express, but the dishes didn't really feel upgraded at all. a lot of the food tasted pretty flavorless, and many of the dishes kinda blended together flavor-wise. for the price, i expected a lot more. the panda rice especially was way too saucy for me and ended up feeling kinda heavy/icky. if i came back, i'd probably only order the orange chicken and walnut shrimp since those were the standout dishes. that being said... the chocolate covered fortune cookie was SO good genuinely one of the best parts of the meal and lowkey tempting enough to make me come back just for that alone. i also wanted to try the milk tea, but they were out when i visited. read more

Wowwww I did not expect to LOVE it! Can't believe I didn't come here earlier! Inside is clean and well kept gives you a fine dining experience. Their tables are covered with table cloth! Employees are attentive and even the manager checks on customers waiting to order for take out asking if they have been helped. They have regular and family sizes for most of their dishes. For a party of five we got five dishes regular size and it was plenty. They also give you rice which is a plus! Lastly, their white chocolate dipped fortune cookie is a great surprise as well! Will definitely be back! read more

Had such a great experience at Panda Inn on Easter Day. We came in as a party of two and were seated within five minutes, which was amazing for a holiday. Our servers were attentive the entire time without being overbearing. The atmosphere felt very family-oriented with nice white tablecloths, giving it that classic, comfortable dining vibe. We ordered the shrimp fried rice and kung pao shrimp, and both were delicious with generous portions--we even had leftovers for the next day. I also tried the cherry blossom drink, which was a perfect, refreshing touch. Overall, everything from the food to the service made this such an enjoyable visit. Definitely coming back! read more

Had a great experience at Panda Inn! The food was savory and satisfying--especially the honey walnut shrimp, which was perfectly prepared with a crisp exterior and just the right size. Prices were reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. This spot always feels festive--it's clearly a go-to for celebrations, including my own family's birthdays. We were even able to get semi-private seating this evening, which made the experience feel extra special. Service is usually good. Food was served quickly even although they were busy. Oh and their fortune cookie was dipped in white chocolate which was delish. Definitely a place we'll keep coming back to again and again! read more

My experience at panda inn surpassed my expectations. I only recently became a fan of Panda Express, so I was super excited to find out that they had a sit down version! The interior was absolutely beautiful, huge restaurant and each room was meticulously decorated. I really appreciated all the panda themed frosted glass. My partner and I arrived for a late lunch so it wasn't too crowded. We got seated right away and was taken care of by a wonderful woman. Everyone had very positive and polite attitude. As for the food, the portions were HUGE! This is definitely not a spot to come alone to unless you plan on taking out over half your order to go. There were all the options from Panda Express and more on the menu, which made me feel like I had to come back and try all the other options. Most of the selection looked to be the typical Americanized Chinese food you'd expect. We ordered the upside down fried noodles, orange chicken, and panda beef. All the food had a similar taste to express, so no huge surprise there. The textures of the batter was definitely a bit different but still delicious. I'd definitely recommend checking this spot out if you're a fan of Panda Express! read more

Today we decided to stop by Panda Inn before heading to Knott's with the family, and honestly it was the perfect way to kick off our day. I had been here before, but last time my daughter was way too young (and wild lol) for us to really enjoy a sit-down dinner. Fast forward to today -- she's 4 now, my son is 2 -- and we actually got to have a peaceful family meal. We arrived early enough to grab a booth, which already made things easier with the kids. We started off with the Honey Walnut Shrimp and they were amazing -- not overly sweet and had just the right amount of crunch. We also ordered the Beef and Broccoli, which is one of those dishes that's usually good anywhere, but here it just felt more elevated and flavorful. We went with the fried rice and chow mein combination that comes loaded with meats, and also added the Kung Pao Shrimp which had a ton of flavor and a really nice savory kick. The biggest win though? The table was quiet for a solid 15 minutes... which if you're a parent, you know means the kids were actually enjoying their food. My daughter kept it simple with white rice and was locked in. Valentine's brunch for us is family style now, and we couldn't complain one bit. My wife and I both love Asian food and she truly enjoyed her meal. This visit honestly made me realize Panda Inn walked so Panda Express could run. They also give you these white chocolate dipped fortune cookies at the end which were fire. Great spot for a family meal -- next time we're bringing a bigger group so we can order more and share more. read more

This is my go-to place whenever we want to host a big event or want a private room, and are wanting good Chinese cuisine. As everybody may already know, Panda Inn is the upscale, sit-down predecessor to Panda Express. Interesting enough, I don't order their Orange Chicken because I know it'll always hit at a Panda Express. I always start with their Minced Chicken Lettuce Wrap and Sizzling Soup. The chicken wraps comes with a side of hoisin and hot honey mustard, which is a nice touch to the wraps. The Sizzling Soup has crunchy rice, shrimp, scallop, chicken and vegetables. For main, I like getting a beef, chicken, shrimp, and veggie dish. I've had their Mongolian Beef, Beef & Broccoli, Kung Pao Chicken, Cashew Chicken, Honey Walnut Shrimp, Sweet & Pungent Shrimp (love the sauce!), Fish in Black Bean Sauce, Mapo Tofu, Braised String Beans, and Panda Rice which has scallops, shrimp, egg tossed in garlic oyster sauce. I love how all dishes are served on a rotating round table so we can just turn the table to get the dish we want. Staff is always attentive and makes sure that hot tea is always refilled. After every meal, they provide white chocolate-covered fortune cookies, beautifully wrapped in vibrant, colorful foil! read more

Panda Inn - Lunch Honey Walnut Shrimp Lunch Orange Chicken - Chinese Near Me - La Palma, California

I've had this place bookmarked for a while and always wanted to go and I had a good experience going my first time. Panda in is where you can get very size-able portions and good quality overall. My personal favorite was the garlic noodles and the Mongolian beef. My mom and grandma ended up getting the family sized orange chicken and regular order of the panda beef respectively. The Mongolian beef was very good and tender and I did like it for my first time trying it. While the orange chicken was amazing as always. While I wasn't a fan of the panda beef. The service overall was very solid with our server coming around frequently to check up on us to refill our drinks. Finally the white chocolate fortune cookies were very good at the end. read more

I drive by Panda Inn all the time and finally decided to give it a try. My boyfriend and I arrived on a Saturday evening, and although the parking lot was packed, we were seated immediately at a booth with no wait. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill from there. No one came by to take our drink or food order for nearly ten minutes. A family seated after us received prompt service, which made the delay even more noticeable. The couple behind us complained and asked not to be served by the same waitress, but we decided to take our chances. That was a mistake. We ordered shrimp fried rice, honey walnut shrimp, orange chicken. Rice and orange chicken arrived lukewarm. The shrimp had not been cleaned properly and still had fecal matter attached, which was disgusting. My boyfriend refused to eat any of it out of fear of food poisoning, and I didn't eat mine either. We decided to trash the entire meal. The server never checked on us, despite passing our table multiple times. We eventually had to stop her just to ask for the bill. I never asked for the waitress name but on the receipt, it says employee team 8. Overall, this was a one-and-done experience for us. The food was nasty and the service was even worse. We won't be returning, nor would we recommend this location to anyone. read more

10+ years ago when I worked in Bellflower, I was aware that Panda Inn was the OG Panda Express. I always thought of picking it up to bring home for dinner, but never did. Then I stopped working out that way and forgot all about it. Husband recently watched a YouTuber reviewing local Chinese restaurants and was excited about this place, so we decided to come for lunch ASAP. So glad we did! We got there right when they opened, no wait, super fast service. Everybody here is so happy and friendly! Hubs ordered their Maple Old Fashioned and really liked it. I stuck with plain iced tea and it was tasty. For lunch we got an order of Veggie Eggrolls, Mongolian Beef, Orange Chicken, and Shrimp Fried Rice. Everything was excellent! Great quality meat, fresh veggies, large portions, and very flavorful. After tip this was a $100 lunch, which is a bit much, but we were able to eat the leftovers for lunch for 2 more days, so it was worth it to me. Wish I lived closer, cause I would be ordering from here often. He said he wants to go back and try more dishes, I hope we do soon! read more

Panda Inn - Deliscjous Wonton Soup &&& sweet Lunch Orange Chicken with rice bowl &&& Vegetable Egg Rolls - Chinese Near Me - La Palma, California

Serving a focused menu of classic Chinese Mandarin dishes, Panda Inn in La Palma served food as good as my family was hoping for, with service that exceeded my expectations. The Panda brand got created in 1973 in Pasadena as a local Chinese restaurant serving Mandarin dishes, catered to American tastes. It then became the first Chinese fast food chain, opening the first Panda Express as a mall food court restaurant in 1983 in Glendale, serving up prepared food kept warm on steam tables. Growing up in the Midwest, I was shocked at how popular Panda Express is in California across various groups. And I'd come to appreciate how easy it was to stop in for take-home dinner after work, if Chinese food was the choice. The food was almost always pretty mediocre, but felt if I could get lucky to get food right after it was prepared, it would be a lot better. So decided to go to the nearest OG to see what it would taste like prepared to order. We came about 15 minutes after it opened on a Saturday and it was already quite busy. The parking lot has a lot of spots, so would assume it would get full due to the popularity of the restaurant. Inside seating is varied, and the three of us got a circular booth. This location opened in 1989, making it over 35 years old, but it still looked very well maintained and elegant inside. I had signed up for their loyalty club beforehand, which gave us a free order of mini pork dumplings. I wanted to order enough food to sample what they are famous for, wanting to take home leftovers. Homemade mini pork dumplings ($10 for ten pieces) - boiled dumplings, served on top of a dashi soy sauce. It was good, great texture on the meatballs. Three Flavors Sizzling Rice Soup ($14, enough for 4 small bowls). Came with plenty of seafood (bay scallops and large shrimp). The chicken broth was very light, OK but not great. Orange Chicken ($20) - tasted like Panda Express, except they included baby corn, which went great with the dish. Good for folks who don't mind a lot of crispy batter...because it was served immediately after prep, it tasted really good dining-in (confirmed the taste went down significantly after bringing it home). Honey Walnut Shrimp ($26.50) - jumbo shrimp, lightly battered and doused in a sweet mayo based sauce, topped with honeyed walnuts. A classic American Chinese dish, well executed here with quality ingredients. Upside Down Crispy Noodles with choice of shrimp ($20) - a clear winner, this dish is something I've not found at other menus in Southern California. They use egg noodle 'bricks' that are deep fried in-house with the noodles being very thin...it's almost like instant ramen noodles. It then mixed together with the other ingredients table-side. They give plenty of vegetables and protein, with the entire portion being quite large...we only made a dent in it. Our server, Jesus, was excellent: accurate, timely, and friendly while doing tableside work like dividing up the soup into bowls and preparing the upside down noodles tableside. I learned from him that many things (but not all) on the menu are made from scratch on-site. I confirmed that the breaded chicken chunks from the Orange Chicken is premade (tasted just like what you would get at a Panda Express), but that the same sauce is used on the Phoenix Chicken dish (which uses house breaded white meat chicken). Will absolutely get that next time if somebody in the party wants Orange Chicken. Oh yeah...the fortune cookies at the end of the meal were unique: individually wrapped, white chocolate dipped. There is something to longevity in the restaurant business...restaurants that survive (and thrive) this long give people what they are looking for: great tasting food in a comfortable environment with great service. Panda Inn does that very very well. read more

I've dined here a few times, and the food is always good. This restaurant is a sit-down fancier version of Panda Express in my opinion. The food is definitely more Americanized Chinese food, but still really good!! Our most recent visit, we went on a Saturday night around 6:15 pm. It was pretty busy with people waiting outside the restaurant. However, the wait wasn't too bad. We waited around 30 minutes to get seated (Party of 4). After we were seated, it took another 30 minutes for the server to take our order, which wasn't the greatest experience, but I understood because it was busy. We ordered the Three Flavors Sizzling Rice soup, Chow Fun, Beef with Oyster Sauce, and Sweet and Pungent Shrimp. The food took quite a while to come out (45+ minutes -- it was almost 8:30 by the time the food came out), at a certain point I thought they had forgotten about our order, but they gave us egg rolls on the house as an apology. The food itself was amazing. The sizzling rice soup came out first, and since we ordered a bowl of it, the server poured it into four small bowls for each person in the party. It was good, and the chunks of chicken in it were flavored well. The chow fun was solid too, and had a good amount of chicken in it. The beef with oyster sauce was DELICIOUS. The beef was so juicy and marinated in oyster sauce perfectly. The snow peas were so crunchy and satisfying to eat alongside the beef. It had a generous amount of mushrooms and bamboo shoots as well which brought the whole dish together. Lastly, the sweet and pungent shrimp was my favorite dish. The breading was so perfectly crispy, yet coated in the sauce well. The flavor of the shrimp itself was sweet, spicy, and tangy. It is garnished with szechuan pepper flakes, but it isn't too spicy at all. Overall, I'd definitely return. The service is good, I'm not sure what happened for the food to take so long this visit , but it was the first time I'd experienced this in the few times I've been here. The food itself is always top quality and I always leave with leftovers! read more

Really nice interior. There are nice decorations all around and the sound of silverware and plate clanging makes for an authentic Chinese restaurant experience. The reason I bring that up is because of the obvious connection to Panda Express, which is usually unfairly judged as an "Americanized" place. I love Panda Express and was looking to see what this different concept had to offer. The wait was decent. They kept saying how they weren't busy but I felt like the wait seemed a bit long, but they were nice and accommodating. At one point they almost gave us the wrong meal but then took it back, and they were really efficient about it. We ordered the Orange Chicken, the Assorted Fried Rice and Chicken Upside Down Crispy Noodles. The orange chicken was really tangy and sour. Super good. It also had baby carrots, which were a nice refreshing bite. The Fried Rice was my favorite, and the rice was fluffy and not too greasy. The Upside Noodles were okay. I thought they could've had a bit more flavor, but the vegetables were super crisp along with the noodles. Altogether the meal was fantastic, and I especially enjoyed the fortune cookies dipped in white chocolate. Really pleasant end to the meal. They waitress packed our food for us and was on top of refilling our waters. Overall good experience and I'd definitely come back for a nicer occasion. read more

BIRTHDAY MONTH=BIRTHDAY COUPONS=HAPPY RODNEY Free White Chocolate Dipped Fortune Cookies for Rewards members Free mini Dumplings welcome promo for Rewards signup Panda Express' sit-down cousin, Panda Inn is a longtime tenant at Centerpointe La Palma. Out of all these years, I recently downloaded their app and signed up for their Rewards program. Having both promos available, 2025 seemed the time to pay Panda Inn an inaugural visit. Mini pork dumplings- Juicy! The mini pork dumplings were a great welcome promo. They came already sauced, of which I added chili oil to kick things up a notch. Wonton soup- Chicken, shrimp, BBQ pork, chicken wontons, water chestnuts, mushrooms. I quite enjoyed Panda Inn's wonton soup. It was chockful of protein, and the broth was satisfying. What I didn't like? The actual wontons. The mixture inside was full of filler ingredients, and the wontons were a tad tough to bite into. Definitely not freshly made. Still, the wonton soup had tasty & ample cuts of chicken, BBQ pork and shrimp. Good stuff! White chocolate dipped fortune cookies- I could not stop eating these addictive fortune cookies. I generally avoid fortune cookies, merely cracking them open for the fortune inside, but when dipped in chocolate (milk/dark/white), it's game over. Service was great. The attendants were quick with seating and providing assistance, when requested. The restaurant has an interesting layout, reminding me of an old timey schoolhouse or, dare I say, inn? Instead of a large open dining area, the dining rooms are semi-private. One in the front left corner, another in the rear left corner, etc. A small bar area is located in the center of Panda Inn. Parking is via a private lot. I'm a fan of Panda Express, and now I can definitively say, I'm a fan of Panda Inn, as well. The food was solid, ditto for the service. Having both promos really made for a positive dining experience. I look forward to coming back in the future. read more

5-Stars here. There are so many Chinese Restaurants I've been to in OC but this is the BEST - best food and best service. Even though they've been in business for years - the place still looks so new, so clean & feels upscale compared to other Chinese restaurants (definitely NOT a 'hole-in-the-wall' type establishment) and all that combined just makes the food taste even better than it already is - TOP NOTCH. Friends took me here for my Birthday and the entire staff was so nice, welcoming & friendly. Our Server was Matthew and he was on top of it - he made me and my guests feel so welcome and he answered all our questions took care of us - made my Birthday feel real special and he didn't forget about regularly checking up on us throughout the evening (unlike other restaurants) - I'll definitely be a loyal customer from now on. read more

We arrived with a reservation so thankfully, we were seated right away. However, the service was VERY slow. While our drink orders were taken promptly, it took about 20 minutes for someone to take our food order and another 40 minutes or so for the dishes to come out. There were only about 3-4 tables occupied at the time we ordered and most of them were already eating, so I'm not sure why it took so long. The servers were not attentive and it took a while for us to flag someone down whenever we needed anything. Even for the check. The food was okay and the fortune cookie was unique and delicious but I'm not sure if I'll be coming back due to long wait and lack of attention from staff. read more

Not bad, not great. The best dishes from this experience were the honey walnut shrimp and the braised string beans. Even then, the shrimp was too heavily salted. I felt that the scallops were also too salty. Unfortunately, the Panda Beef and Phoenix Chicken (orange chicken with broccoli) was comprised of mostly crumbled deep fried batter. The sauce was enjoyable, but left me wanting a better meat to batter ratio. The Phoenix Chicken we ordered was family size, but only came with several pieces of broccoli. I anticipated more broccoli according to the menu description. Service was absolutely spectacular from start to finish. The hosts and servers were all so friendly and welcoming. Not feeling rushed whatsoever. Our server definitely took the time to take care of us, from pouring our soup bowls for us to packing up our food in takeout boxes. Overall, it's nice to say I've tried Panda Inn, but it's a one and done for me. read more

Everyone knows about Panda Express; however, Panda Inn is the upscale restaurant in the Panda Restaurant Group family. I used to go to their Pasadena location when I was a kid and I remember the days when they had their Sunday brunch buffet. Like Panda Express, they have Chinese American Classics like Broccoli Beef and Orange Chicken. They're comparable to what you'd get at their fast-food cousin, but the dishes are freshly prepped to order here, which does make a difference. The thing about Panda Inn is that it's an upgraded experience in service, ambiance, and in their preparation. While they have the classics, they have dishes exclusive to the branding like Panda Rice, Honey Walnut Shrimp, and Short Ribs, which take the concept to the next level. People complain about "authenticity" when they talk about Panda Restaurant Group and their brands; however, that's not a problem for me. Their iconic classics are simply delicious and that's why people buy them. In California, we're lucky to have representations of many Chinese and Taiwanese regions; however, this is one that provides approachable food with Chinese techniques for the American audiences. And if you want more "authentic"-adjacent flavors, then simply don't order orange chicken and broccoli beef and choose mapo tofu, scallop in black bean sauce, or gingered fish in scallions. For a family gathering amongst picky eaters, Panda Inn is a place where almost anyone can find something they'd want and, I feel, that that's worth something! read more

My mom and I came in here yesterday 4/30/26 for lunch. We had a reservation so we were taken right away. The restaurant is beautiful with stained glass adorable pandas on it. I have health issues and cannot have anything high in sodium. We ordered the vegetable soup with no noodles, no mushrooms, no tomatoes and no tofu. It came and was just a bunch of spinach in a flavorless broth. I've had vegetable soup at other Chinese and a Thai restaurants that have had flavor. Then we ordered the chicken lettuce cups very low to no sodium. It came out with no flavor so my mom said you could add just a touch of very little soy. When it came back it was a lot darker and tasted sweet and smoky which we knew had to be hoisin sauce which I can't have. Again at other places they could do this. I will say though the food was not up to par with us the hot jasmine green tea was extremely hot and tasted so good. The service here is incredible. Everyone was polite, accommodating and understanding. If you do come here I'm sure you will receive wonderful service as we did. read more
