Panda South Chinese Restaurant - chow main and Orange Chicken and fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Redding, California

Didn't know this amazing place was here!! I've been craving tomato beef chow mein since leaving the Bay Area, no one does it here, or so I thought. I was told about this place by someone at my nail salon and was so excited to see my tomato beef on the menu. It did not disappoint. Food was GREAT and so was service. I will definitely be back, even though it's out of my way. It's worth the trip!!!!! read more

This is our go-to for Chinese takeout. The restaurant is very pleasant and clean. Portions are generous. We usually order on line and drive the 1/2 mile there and it's ready almost immediately. read more

Super adjacent to Dollar Tree Great food and instant service Lunch special sesame chicken with rice and soup was tender and cheap; but really worth it. Certainly dining here again when I visit Redding, CA eventually. read more

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. read more

Wonderful food here. Everything went great! Food was delicious and not too long of a wait.

My 5 yr grand-daughter likes Panda, Teriyaki Chicken and noodles, I don't get it for myself.

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. read more

Panda South Chinese Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Redding, California

This is a hidden gem. The people were wonderful. The food was great. The portions were big. It's a little dated on the decor, but if you can get past that, you will have a great experience. Really want to rave about the food. Wish this was near my house. read more

I'm picky about Chinese and I'm from the SF Bay Area. The BEST Tomato Beef Chow Mein, Hong Kong style noodles anywhere. The Beef Chow Fun with or without gravy is also excellent. I can't comment on anything else because I ALWAYS order the above. Be sure to order the Tomato Beef with Hong Kong style noodles. They're thinner and crispier than regular noodles. read more

Food is amazing and good service was fast and easy nice workers and good lunch specials

The food here is some of my favorite in Redding. It's our weeknight go to when we're looking for Chinese food.

We decided to eat here as our other restaurant was closed for a couple of weeks. We were not disappointed. The food was hot and fresh. The sauces were very flavorful. We had the Chicken Garlic Sauce and Chicken Egg Foo Young. We usually split an order and have leftovers but we finished the whole order! White pepper at the table was another plus. Service was very friendly and prompt. The restaurant needs a bit of "updating" but was clean. We will recommend Panda South and visit again. Oh, no bugs or roaches in our dishes! read more

My husband and I both ordered the orange chicken & were not happy. There were two things wrong with the chicken, it was spicy, and there was not nearly enough sauce, it was dry. We won't be back. read more

I haven't tried any other Chinese restaurants in Redding. This is my first. I can only compare this place to restaurants in the SF Bay Area. The food is not greasy and caters to people that don't want too much sauce or salt in their food. The service for a take out order was fantastic. Olivia was so incredibly helpful and charming. Definitely a breath of fresh air. The owner came out to greet us as well and was very friendly to my daughter. I would say that the food is good but if you are looking for more sauce then ask for it. I will most definitely use this place as my measuring standard towards other Chinese restaurants in the area. I recommend Panda South. read more

I found this place via a sushi chef at another restaurant. So glad I tried it. My favorite at another restaurant that has closed was War Wonton soup. It didn't disappoint. Delicious comfort food at its best. Also ordered potstickers. They were HUGE and delicious. Same for chicken chow mein. I was also impressed with the super friendly fast service. Highly recommend this restaurant. read more

I had the chicken with snow peas. It was tasty but I have had better. It also had some bamboo shoots and some other mushy veggie which I could not identify. The sauce was flavorful, and not salty. The egg drop soup was tasty and with the added chili pepper oil had some heat. read more

Panda South Chinese Restaurant - Chicken with snow peas - Chinese Near Me - Redding, California

Unexpected find traveling through Redding, worth the stop. Would definitely return! Great food, more than generous.

Favorite Chinese restaurant. Accommodating to allergy needs. Great food. Always consistent. Nice clean atmosphere.

Food doesnt taste good. I ordered orange chkn, beef veggies & chkn chow mein. Everything tasted bland!! The orange chk sauce did not taste like orange at alllll!!! Chow mein noodles are BIG theyre more like udon...it had a weird plastic like taste to it. The beef vegetable had an off taste to it too....a very subtle odor that just threw the whole dish off. Rice was good. I'll probably never recommend this place to anyone who stops by Redding area. It is very pricey & pretty disappointing. THE GUY AT THE COUNTER...he was nice & friendly. Our food was also ready a few mins after the pick up time. read more

If you want the most amazing fresh Chinese food don't hesitate to eat some Panda South. Try their sesame chicken they're unique thin cornstarch batter will leave you wondering why even tempura. read more

Highly recommend! Our family came into town to celebrate our grandmas birthday. We wanted to have a really nice dinner for her so we decided to order to-go. Everything was closed due to the pandemic but this restaurant definitely made every effort to keep their business going. It wasn't hard for them because the couple who owns it are extremely nice and we got the food in quick time We were very satisfied with the experience overall. Would definitely order from here again if/when we decide to come back to Redding area read more

Had lunch today at Panda South, Lake Blvd, great food, excellent service, very friendly staff. Nice atmosphere.

The girl at the counter was beautiful and the food was so good the wonton soup is the best I ever had and the sesame chicken was so good the fried rice was delicious and the egg rolls was delicious I will come back every time I past through Redding mos def my go to spot when i go to Redding read more

The portions here are enough to feed a small country. We ordered the dinner combo (supposed to serve 3) for the four of us and only managed to eat half of what was brought out. Great servers. Super friendly. read more

Solid D+ for Worlds "Okayest" Chinese Restaurant. The Walnut Prawns were half veined, overcooked, and had a soggy fried batter (not the most enjoyable texture or experience). Redding really lacks quality Chinese restaurants, this place being one of them. You're better off buying frozen Chinese food in a bag and cooking it at home than wasting money and disappointing yourself with this restaurant. read more

Panda South is so good! I absolutely love their General Tsos chicken and they have a great lunch menu! They also have really good soup! The only thing I haven't loved is their potstickers and that is why I gave them a 4/5. Highly recommend. read more

I was looking for something good but yet bang for my buck and let me tell you this place is it! The server we had was a real nice guy and was super on his job! He helped us navigate through the menu with it being our first time. The food was forsure worth coming back for and one way you know is if you can warm it up the next day and it is still that good! read more

I order lunch here very frequently, as it is within a close proximity to my work. I always order the same thing from their lunch menu, Sesame chicken with friend rice, that also comes with an egg roll. The prices are fair and the portions are hefty. I have tried a beef dish with veggies, but was a little disappointed. From then on I stick with my regular, which I am always pleased with. read more

Got an order from this restaurant to go got back to the hotel room it was all wrong I call and she calls me a liar I think it had to do with that our bill was over $100 and she didn't want to replace her mishap besides that what food it was which wasn't what we ordered was terrible it looked like there was a hair in the sweet and sour chicken never will I come back to this restaurant it was awful read more

I ordered fried rice it was rice soaked in sweet soy sauce it wasn't fried rice they said that's how they make it ... they offered my money back.... I will never eat there again read more

This restaurant is amazing! They go above and beyond in their customer service AND their food is quick and delicious! If I lived closer, this would be my go-to spot. I highly recommend their Hong Kong style chow mein if you're interested in a noodle dish. Support this local business! I promise you won't regret it! read more

do not eat here they have roaches in the food!!! this is discussing! My dad went here today and got orange chicken and there was a cooked bug in the food read more

Panda South Chinese Restaurant - Bugs in the food - Chinese Near Me - Redding, California

Great food, reasonable price, and friendly service! Hot and Sour soup is tasty! Make sure you ask for a bowl with your next meal!

Okay now I'm really happy the Sailing Boat does not have it together for call-in ordering. Fortunately Panda South was on the Entrée Express menu. Both my wife and I loved the food and will definitely order again from Panda South. There was a bit of a language barrier ordering but other than that, we cannot wait to eat their food again. We had egg foo young, broccoli beef and almond chicken. Yeah that is a lot of food but we will get 4 more meals from our order. We also noticed that the food was not salty and it took the soy sauce well. I look forward to ordering different items on the menu. Maybe next weekend we can get another order. MANGA! read more

I'm not normally a huge fan of chinese food but theirs is one i make the exception for. Their sesame chicken and chicken& broccoli are easily my favorite. They have some of the best wantons/crab rangoon that i've ever had. Only putting 4 stars because their menu on the BeyondMenu app could be a little easier navigate. I would recommend adding descriptions for each platter to describe what does/doesn't come with it. In all, it's just much easier to order over the phone read more

Panda South has a quick take out service. I work down the street so I get take out orders at least once a week (or more). I have never had to wait for my food because they are always ready in ten minutes or less. Most places will tell you the pick up time is ten minutes, but in reality it's twenty or more minutes. In this case, I am giving them extra stars for their quick service. Their food, on the other hand, is inconsistent at times. It's not that it doesn't taste good...but when I order something, I expect it to taste like the previous times that I ordered it. Overall, kudos for always providing great service. P.S., I would recommend trying the Salted and Pepper Shrimp. read more

My husband and I have tried Chinese food from many places in town, and we feel this by far is the best! Not only is the food good, but you get a lot for an AMAZING price! We love the chicken chow main, fried rice, egg drop soup, Mongolian beef and the sweet and sour pork. The food is always delivered on time and it's always nice and hot when it gets here. We always order the dinner for 2 and have leftovers for about 2 meals for each of us. read more

Horrible food. Anything we had with beef, was fatty and chewy. Shrimp dish my husband had tasted like it was drowned & basted in vinegar. Very disappointing experience. read more
