    Me and a friend decided to do some take out Chinese cause it's way too freakin hot to do any real cooking at her house. She lives near this Panda South Chinese Restaurant, so this is where we went. Service was fast and efficient in placing our order, we actually went inside instead of a phone order, just so there won't be any miscommunications with what we wanted. We got some pot stickers, beef chow fun, and cause Yelper Howie S. mentioned they had Tomato Beef Hong Kong noodles, we got that. They packed the crispy noodles separate, so they didn't get soggy with the toppings. All the food was still very hot when we got to her house and unpacked it all. The pot stickers lost some temp, but no biggie. The noodles of the chow fun were tender and not chewy and there was plenty of beef. The tomato beef over crispy noodles was very good with the sauce having the proper amount of vinegar for that little zing and not too sweet. I'd get food from here again.

    Wish I could give no stars. Yesterday, I ordered hot and sour soup along with other entrées for pickup. I ate most of the food last night and saved the hot and sour soup for lunch today. Unfortunately, when I opened the soup, I discovered an unwelcome "extra protein"--a roach. Understandably, I was horrified. I immediately contacted the restaurant to inform them. While they offered a refund/ replacement, I declined. I explained the severity of the issue and urged them to address their food safety and cleanliness standards urgently. This experience was deeply unsettling, and I now regret eating the rest of the food. Taking laxatives for peace of mind shouldn't have to be part of dining out. I hope the restaurant takes this as a wake-up call to prioritize their customers' health and well-being.

We ordered from the Lunch Special menu, which was from 11AM to 3PM everyday. The entrees came with Soup of the Day, Egg Roll, and either Steamed Rice, Pork Fried Rice, or Chicken Chow Mein. We ordered the Chicken with Snow Peas with Steamed Rice for $11.75, Vegetable Bean Curd with Steamed Rice for $11.55, and Beef with Oyster Sauce with Chicken Chow Mein for $12.55. The Soup of the Day was Hot & Sour Soup. The soup was really good, delicious, and not spicy at all. The Egg Rolls were crispy and too oily. The dipping sauce for the egg rolls was good. All the dishes were descent, but way too salty. We were told you can request the dishes to be light on the salt. We wouldn't mind returning next time as the flavors were good, but we would request the dishes be less salty.

Eating out is pricy these days but decided to splurge and soooo happy we did. The restaurant is in an area with lots of one way streets but worth the challenge of getting there.

Our server Chris was great, super friendly and attentive. So what went wrong. The greeter was absolutely rude and unprofessional. I was about to walk away but we were tired from hiking that day so my family wanted to stay. The greeter refused our request twice to sit at a corner table for a party of six. We opted not to sit on high chair as none of us liked it. She basically rolled her eyes and questioned us twice of why and refused our request. The food is absolutely beyond typical. We are from Hong Kong and we expect nothing authentic at the place, as long as it tastes descent. For the atmosphere, it may score a point or two. But for the food flavor, save your money, go to any chinese fast food place, you will enjoy it as much and opposed to dining here.

    Few weeks ago, we took a drive to visit Burney Falls near Redding, on the way back to the East Bay,…read morewe found this restaurant and we're so hungry. There are plenty of parking in this shopping center. The restaurant is very clean and airy, quite a huge place. The price is very reasonable for all the foods that they have. There is everything for any taste, it's like the Newark Buffet near our home. We got the senior discount automatically which was nice, enough for 2 drinks. The soup bar is excellent, seafood soup, hot and sour, wonton soup they're all good. The sushi bar has all the pre-made sushi which are ok. Every buffet, I would try every dish a little to see what I like, I did like the chicken wings, the scallops, salt and pepper shrimps, actually, all the fried dishes are great, hot and tasty. The hot foods come out very quickly as soon as the trays look low on food. I tried all the soups and they're quite delicious. The service is very attentive and quick for a buffet restaurant, everyone is quite pleasant. The dessert and salad bar are plentiful with fresh produce, jello and I love the almond cookies and coffee cakes. It was a hearty meal for us after a long day hiking in the Burney Falls loop. We'll stop by here next time we're in this area, definitely.

To pay him back I asked him where he wanted to go for lunch, he said that Chinese buffet. OK, I know what place he's talkin about, the Grand Buffet, On Hilltop Drive just off the 5 off of East Cypress exit. East to find and lots of parking. Looks like it's been over 2 years since I was here. The price for lunch now is $17 bucks plus tax and some tip. We get there and the place looks about the same as the last time I was here. They have these big Koi fish that seem to be an attraction near the front. We get seated and drink orders taken. We got here close to opening at 11 am. so all the food was nice and fresh and hot. Don't get here half hour before closing and expect there to be all hot fresh food, it ain't gonna happen. Some of the things I love here are those ribs! Yeah, Chinese can make so damn good ribs! Not Texas style though. Chicken wings are another of my fave here. My friend went wild and ate a ton of food, all kinds of noodles, ribs and wings. I pretty much skipped the carbs and filled up with shrimp, wings and ribs. They even have french fries if you want! Service is the usual just clear the plates and fill the drinks with minimal conversation. I gotta remember this place is here!
