    Panda Style Curly Fries
    Kelly L.

    Had previously tried Panda Sal's double smash burger and curly fries and thought it was good. Came back yesterday for the Argentina game and ordered the Panda style fries and was completely blown away by how delicious they were! I asked for ranch on the side, but no extra side sauce is necessary! I shared and was still stuffed after. The ambiance for the game was such a thrill of a vibe. Thankfully service has always been top tier! Thank you guys. If you don't know what to get, get the loaded fries!!

    Yo, this is fusion done right. Smash Burgers + Filipino flavors. I wasnt sure how it would work out since Pandesal can be a bit dry by itself. But they sauce up their burgers nicely, leaving you wanting to take another bite. I had the Single with a an order of the Oanda fries with an egg on top for the chefs kiss. Staff was super nice and helpful, took the time to explain the menu. Def looking forward to trying out the longaniza and corned beeg egg & cheese breaky sandos. Panda Sal's is located in the Steel Craft food garden in Bellflower. FYI not all the Steel Crafts have the same vendor lineup. They have adjacent public parking, usually not that bad on weekdays, not sure about the weekend.

    I tried the ube sliders, curly fries, and Panda fries with corned beef. I ordered everything to go and was surprised that the sliders were individually wrapped. I thought that was a really nice touch. Each order came with three sliders, and they were actually a good size. I got full after eating two. The burger itself was very tasty. I know pandesal bread is supposed to be a bit thicker, but I personally wish it had been softer and a little more dense, more like a regular hamburger bun. The curly fries were good and stayed crispy even by the time I ate them. The Panda fries were tasty too, but a little on the salty side. The corned beef came in a patty form, which made it harder to spread throughout the fries. Overall everything was delicious, but it did feel pretty heavy after eating. The restaurant is a stand inside SteelCraft, so it can get crowded and parking can be a bit difficult.

    This place is located inside Steelcraft Bellflower. There are plenty of tables and seats if you get there before the meal rush. We ordered ube sliders with smash burger and pandasal fries with longganisa. Ube Sliders with Smash Burger- You get an ube brioche bun with a burger patty, cheese, house sauce, pickles, and grilled onions. The meat was cooked with a nice sear and it was bursing with flavor. Cheese is gooey and creamy. Overall a delicious bite! Pandasal Fries with Longganisa- Crispy fries with longganisa pieces, house sauce, and an over easy egg on top. Every element works with the dish beautifully. I especially enjoyed the sweet and savory longganisa pieces. So filling and tasty! Great experience overall!

    Not a huge burger person but I love the smash burgers here. I usually get the single cheese burger and add an egg and it's perfection. The pandesal buns are so soft and fresh. I've also tried the loaded panda fries which were pretty solid as well! Keep in mind it's located at Steelcraft Bellflower and the parking is limited but not terrible

    I have to admit that I found this on a social media reel, and usually those are paid "influencers" that say whatever the business wants them to say (as in.. it's never usually as good as they say), but this one was GOOD. I wasn't expecting it to be in an outdoor food hall area. There was ample parking and seating, but I wish I could have just grabbed and gone because everything else was so tempting to try!! As for the food.. it was way better than I expected. I tried the spam burger and an ube slider. So good! The fries weren't as good because they just didn't hold up well and got cold right away so they were hard. Canned drinks keep this simple. Service is friendly and quick. The taste is worth the price. I just wish I had a reason to visit Bellflower more often.

    Panda Style fries with longanisa and egg

    I was craving Filipino food with a twist so I went to check out this place. This place is worth a try! I ordered the Egg n Cheese sandwich with longanisa, along with their panda style fries with longanisa and an egg. The presentation of the meal looks amazing. But, I did not like the taste of the longanisa. The flavor is more dark and harsh, and less sweet. The flavor is too strong and overpowering, maybe if I balanced my order with another meat choice instead of everything longanisa. I wouldn't have this "feeling" towards the longanisa flavor. Other than that, this place did satisfy my craving and surely piqued my interest. The service was great as well, the cashier helped me order and it was ready within 10 minutes.

    Been wanting to try this place for months, only to be disappointed. :( Took us almost 2 hrs to drive here because of the awful LA traffic, parking was nice, they have a decently sized lot and it's free for 2 hrs. We walked into this huge food hall, beautiful space honestly and plenty of tables and seating. I guess we entered from the back side and couldn't find their location which was hidden from facing the other side. We walked up to order, no line, menu was very hard to read since the screen is inside the window and had SO much glare but we managed. Ordered a classic burger, curly fries, and the Ube sliders which we were very excited to try. There was another customer on the side, complaining about how their buzzer still didn't go off but the lady worker said it was going to be a few minutes, turns out they were waiting for almost 30 minutes, I should've taken that as a sign. We got our buzzer and found a table, 20 minutes passed and still no buzzer going off. I gave it another 10 minutes for a total of 30 and just walked up to now a very busy, long line spot. I waited on the side till she noticed me, she paused taking the order of the guy and turned around and grabbed my food tray from the back. She apologized and asked if my buzzer didn't go off and I told her it did not. She apologized again and said if the fries are cold, to let her know and she'll remake it. Odd that she only called out the fries as if they wouldn't remake the burgers if those were cold. I walked back to the table and my bf's drink was missing and I didnt even realize because I was just so tired and hungry. He went back to get it while I settled down. Food was room temp and I basically lost my appetite. I ended up eating one slider and took the rest home for later. The buns were not a great texture, definitely different and odd for sliders and probably won't order again. We both agreed that their pickles were delicious though lol. They were almost subtly pickly and more cucumbery like the kind you find at Korean markets. Otherwise I don't think we'll be back. IG: @ammysalamii

    Panda Sal Single Burger, Corned Beef, Curly Fries
    Marlo Y.

    My girlfriend and I came across this place from an Instagram reel calling it a "Filipino In-N-Out," so we decided to check it out. It's located inside SteelCraft, which is convenient for parking, and there's outdoor seating in the courtyard if you want to eat outside. Service was decent -- nothing stood out, but everything ran smoothly and we got our food without any issues. We ordered the Panda Sal single cheeseburger, the corned beef egg & cheese, and a side of curly fries. The food was tasty, but I found it a bit overpowering halfway through. The dishes were quite salty and oily, and I would have appreciated more veggies or something to balance out the flavors. I'm not sure I'd compare it directly to In-N-Out, but it was fun to try something different and flavorful. Overall, a decent experience for trying something new. The flavors are bold, but the richness can get heavy fast. I'm glad I tried it, though I'm not sure I'd come back regularly.

    Ooo we wanted flavor and we got it at Panda Sal's. Been hearing that this is comparable to the Filipino inn n out and with good reason. Their ube sliders were incredible, just perfect size for little ones but this time it was just us parents indulging on some great comfort food on date day. The prices are not bad and we came right when they opened so service was quick. I can imagine it gets busy on weekends but since we came on a Thursday morning we got lucky. Their sauce really is what brings all the flavors together so keep up the amazing work behind the scenes. And the warm pandesal was toasted juuuuust right, my burger didn't get too soggy and we all know how discouraging that can be so I don't know how they are doing it... but they are! Looking forward to coming back to support as we love love Filipino food

    My wife, daughters and I have been wanting to get here for months. We finally made it. Samir the owner treated us like family got us all dialed in and I tried one of all three things we got and I'll tell you what it's worth the drive. great ambience for eating. The food is just totally amazing love it! We will be back. Appreciate you, brother! Looking forward to "The Mike" haha!

    Stopped by with a friend and just wanted something small, got the "small" slider which was three mini smash burgers with Ube Pan de Sals bun (basically sweet bread). Honestly this was reaaally saucy (called their special panda sauce) and had pickles and caramelized onions. It was really flavorful and satisfying. ($12) This place is located in steel craft, they have parking in the back but I'm sure super packed during weekends. I went on a Wednesday afternoon and had no issues.

    The only bad thing I can say about Panda Sal's is that it's too far from me waaaaaah. I honestly dream about the Ube sliders and fries. It's probably a good thing that they're not near me or they would take all my money! The pandesal buns are the perfect soft and bouncy bread. The special burgers are so tender and juicy and I can't choose which is my favorite. I absolutely loved the corned beef as well! The fries drizzled with their special in-house sauce is so addicting. Topped with a fried egg and you have the perfect umami flavor. Luckily I also got to try The Royce sandwich and must say that it's even more special that it's named after their son. The team is so friendly and welcoming, I cannot wait to stop by for my next fix!

    Decided to try this place out again since I didn't have a very good first experience…read more I ordered the liempo again (since last time the meat was inedible). And this time I ordered it with salad. This time around I really enjoyed the taste. The meat was very tender, easy to bite. It has good flavor. You can definitely taste the seasoning and marinate of the meat. I had some of the liempo by itself and I actually paired it with salad (salad which is the side I got). Although upon first glance the salad looks bland, it did have toppings on it. And the dressing was so good. Service was good. I was suppose to claim a free voucher (from the manager) but the worker said my name was there. But she was very friendly in assisting me. Ambiance was okay. It was a Sunday afternoon and there were a lot of people there. And I just got my food to go.

We got a side of rice (two scoops) and a side of salad and shared those, too. Each plate came with a little slaw of marinated veggies. Good portions and reasonable prices. Since it's like a food court you sit outside but it's a very nice area. Service was good! They don't take cash so plan accordingly. Soft drinks by the can and bottled water.

It's nice that parking is accessible in the front on Bellflower Blvd. and in the back parking lots. There are areas where you can sit on stools or on picnic benches. Also several corners where there's shaded trees and a swing bench. It's nice to have the eating area in the middle of the courtyard, but I really don't like the dirt area. But I get that it's probably easier for spills to be soaked up so people don't slip and it's less maintenance. If you're a fur-parent don't worry, there's even a couple bowls from which your pet can get fresh water from their drinking fountain. Or just bring your own bowl and fill it up at the water station. It's really a pet friendly place. We brought our Shih Tzu along and saw another dog sitting on the bench. Food choices are good, you can enjoy a beer and burger, tacos, Filipino/Korean fusion, Coffee, Boba, Argentinian food. There's also a big screen which they televise sports games. Price wise it's about $15-$20 per person for a complete meal.
