Friendly service. Clean restaurant. I had the fresh Mongolian BBQ. I chose the veggies and meat and then it was cooked to perfection. So yummy! I also had breaded zucchini and mussels and dessert. read more

Delicious food and a nice quiet atmosphere!! The service is good, and they're very kind!

The service was amazing, very friendly, really fast, helped us out so much!! The place itself its not the most ideal place considering spacing. The food was pretty good, some dishes were oily and some were bland but other options were delicious!! I enjoyed the sesame chicken, beef and chicken as well as the black pepper chicken I believe? Overall the place was great could improve on something but hey what place couldn't use a little criticism? read more

The buffet food is noticeably oily and had been sitting there for a long time. It gets two stars for being open the day after Christmas. Declined eating here it was so unappetizing. read more

Such sweet hospitality and wonderful, flavorful, well prepared foods. So glad to meet you all !!

I moved to Clovis about 6 months ago, my husband and I had been trying to find a really good Chinese restaurant and just couldn't until a friend of mine found this place. Don't let the exterior of the building turn you away from trying this food! The food is great and fresh and offer a variety of things to try and enjoy. It's our favorite place to go now! read more

Though this place has a rough exterior, the interior is very clean. This place is very affordable for a buffet and when something ran low they would fill it instantly, very attentive service. Very friendly service. Though a smaller buffet the options they do have are amazing and I would 10/10 recommend! read more

Best Chinese Buffet in portales. The family that runs the place couldnt be any nicer and the food is always consistent. Sure the place is a little run down but so are 95 percent of other Chinese Buffet in this country. I highly recommend supporting this sweet family for all your chinese food needs. read more

The buffet isn't what's impressive about this place, but the fresh made-to-order stir fry Mongolian grill. You can load up your plate with veggies and they'll cook it then and there. I have rarely liked Chinese buffet places, but this one impressed me, and it's completely possible to have a nutritious meal here. The dessert is usually ok, nothing impressive, but they always have ice cream. Service is typically fast and attentive as well. read more

Food was pretty good but I love how sociable the owners and employees are. Place was nice and clean and everything was fresh. Second place today that charges a flat rate $8 tax included. One day I will find a burger joint run by an Asian family and it'll be the best burger I ever had. Before I left the owner checked to see if I lived here and I told I was just visiting through the week. So she pressed that I would be back tomorrow. That a great business owner who loves her business and believes in what she is doing read more

It's very homie and welcoming, it's definitely a place you shouldn't judge by its cover, the food is super great and the staff makes you feel like you're part of their family. Would gladly go any day of the week with my family. I only gave four start because of the water stains in the ceiling but that doesn't necessarily effect the food! read more

Parking is the only issue you will encounter. Be cautious when pulling in to the right store front side. Pros: Very friendly customer service, 3 row buffet selection, plenty of seating and a Mongolian grill with one solid row of choices. I'm not a big fan of the buffet options, but the Mongolian grill quality and prep time is A+ to me. Cons: Parking. That is my only real complaint here. When the city of Portales decided to waste money on anti-skid high resistance high quality streets, they didn't take all business into consideration. The rub assigned to this business eats close to or more than 1/3rd of the available store front parking space. If you turn in to the far right store side parking, you will get a bumper full of curb. The other available parking is across either street or flush with a burnt out building. Kind of a bummer. This is in no way the stores fault. Which is why I don't apply that to the star rating at all. read more

We love how we can create our own chinese dish with meat or not, veggies, noodles, mushrooms and peppers and then take it to the grill to be stir fried. The chef always asks how spicy you want it, too! You can stand at the grill and watch your dinner be cooked or sit down at your table. If you don't check back in time, the cook will bring your dish to you. They also have the usual chinese buffet offerings. We always find plenty to eat that tastes great! read more

I think this place should be called a Chinese restaurant but they have a Mongolian grill in addition to their buffet. The buffet is decent. The food isn't overly spectacular but it is fairly good for being located in rural New Mexico. The hot and sour soup isn't particularly good. Many of the dishes feature shrimp, chicken, and beef. There aren't as many vegetables at this restaurant. The service is not all that great. You probably will only get one glass of water for the time that you are there so don't drink it all at once. The employees aren't all that friendly either. But if you don't care about the service then it's a decent place. read more

The food and service was excellent! I drank three large glasses of tea and never had to wait for a refill!

The best part of Panda is not the buffet, but the grill, where you can choose what you want cooked right in front of you. Not only is it seemingly healthier than your typical buffet food, but also super delicious. read more

I don't always visit Portalas, but when I do, I eat at Panda. Their buffet has so many good choices. My favorite is the peanut chicken. Favorite Chinese place in NM, if not the US. Funny I never choose the Mongolian grill part, there buffet just has so many good options. read more

I'm always looking for a buffet when I'm on the road after a long day of work. I've seen some sketchy places, this one maybe more sketchy than any others. I almost didn't go in. Inside was very basic, but clean. The food wasn't real fresh but the flavors were good and they had some twists on some of my favorites. Not the greatest, but not the worst. I'f you're just wanting some Chinese give it a try. read more

Most of the buffet food was cold or over-fried. The stir fry was ok, but didn't make up for the other food, and the cake was stale :-( The staff was very friendly and efficient read more

Good food, place looks a little sketch, but the Mongolian bbq was pretty good. General tso's chicken and fried rice were also spot on. Prices aren't bad either, under 30 bucks for 2 with tip. read more

I want to share my experiences at the Panda. Portales has two small Chinese restaurants...both offer good food at fair prices. I have become a special fan on the Panda for several reasons. The owners/servers are among the nicest people you ever could meet. Hard working and always attentive to your needs. The place is always clean an well-kept. The food is consistently good...and even includes a tray of sushi (Caifornia-like rolls) that are quite tasty...Jackie, the male server, was a sushi chef in NYC and Dallas before family brought him to New Mexico. I always have the Mongolian Grill...fresh meats and veggies prepared to my specifications. Prices are very reasonable...three of us just gorged for about $20. Parking is tight...but there is space across the street...only good things to say. read more
