    I would have given 5 stars but we went to Wu's Open Kitchen for my daughters 21st birthday because she loves the food and she wanted to have a cocktail. However; eventhough it was her 21st birthday they refused to serve her because, they say she needed to be one day older than 21 years old. That is the first time I have ever heard of that. In fact, she went into a liquior store and dispensory and was served ON HER 21st BIRTHDAY. My daughter did not want to aruge about the laws. We had a good dinner, with lots of food.

    For anyone unsure on whether or not to try this restaurant. I'd highly recommend going! Me and my family have been going to this restaurant for 20 years and have never once been disappointed. This is not only our favorite Chinese restaurant but favorite restaurant period. The staff are always really kind and even have our order memorized. Every time we've gone the service has been very good, they never make you wait super long to put your order in and they usually bring out your order in 10-15 minutes. They're always super attentive and at the end of the meal personally package up your left overs. Speaking of the food its amazing! We're usually a party of 4 or 5 but the portions are still big enough for us to take left-overs. Our favorite appetizers are the Dumplings in hot oil, spring rolls and egg flower soup. The dumplings in hot oil are so warm, soft, and pillowy and the mix of oil and peanut sauce works so well together. The spring rolls are served with the most delicious sweet and sour sauce for dipping and I personally really like the spicy mustard thats also served along with it. Our favorite entrees are the chicken lo mien, General Tso chicken (regular and spicy) and our favorite side dish is for sure the stir-fried green beans. Needless to say, I will come to this restaurant for many more years. I promise this is not sponsored haha i just genuinely love this restaurant so much. To anyone who made it to the end of this review thank you! And please go support this restaurant!!

    Food was great with good vegetarian options, and the highlight for me is the complimentary jasmine tea!

    Old School with 80s vibe mauve pink decor with lots of restaurant supplies scattered within but it's the food that counts in a 'hood haunt, this one next to Petco in the Safeway lot off 99w. Stopped in on a lunch. Hubby gives it a 5* $11.95 Kung Pao Combo of Shrimp Scallops n Chix. Interestingly no veggie crunch which I like but the Hubs is all about the 'meat' anyway but a first for a KP with no garden game, hmm. Sauce is not too sweet, a good thing and barely spicy enough but we also did not state a preference, though visible fried Chiles, next time! Got some Chile oil this time for extra pow. 3/5 Chicken broccoli tasted very clean, thin light ginger sauce but broccoli missing the time in the wok for true wok hei/fire/char flavor was a tad too crunchy and sauce needed some oyster umami, it was a little singular and too light for me. Added brown rice for a mere $1, and came in slightly larger bowl than the white. It was well worth it. At lunch, Hot Sour was quite good, visible shredded pork & shitakes, I like a bit more tart from vinegar and heat from white pepper. Portion sizes for lunch mains were just enough that we didn't have any leftovers, so if you are used to taking a box, it's less likely here. Black tea on the house is served on entry along with iced water. Waitresses (2) are masked up, prompt and courteous. There's also a full full bar, which was very surprising although no menu that I saw featuring cocktails, maybe in PM hours. Bathrooms are nice and clean, seat covers check ;) a bit cold back there though, once you pass the the myriad of yet more supplies, boxes, and veg prep/green bean trimming at the table. Just a heads up on the experiential difference in dining room experience between hood and uptown dining. Fresh produce well prepared, healthier brown rice, full bar, supporting local, it's a stop to keep in mind when a sit down is on the cards and the Panda box isn't. I'm ordering more umami flavors for sure next round though.

    Top notch Chinese cuisine. I especially like their Mu shu pork! And the steamed pot stickers are just the right texture.

    I thought the sauces were way to salty and the meat was over cooked. Probably won't be visiting this place again.

    Good food all around! Lots of variety for fussy eaters too:)…read moreOnly draw back...no dining room some food is meant to be eaten when it comes right out of the kitchen.

    Shocking... I have ordered from them for years. In recent years I discovered a favorite thing to…read moreorder is an appetizer platter because it's a little bit of everything - fried shrimp, spring rolls, BBQ pork, crab puffs, and short ribs. I also order their lobster puffs which are a wonton wrapper purse filled with lobster, crazy good sauce and a touch of shredded carrot. This time I was in shock. All the meat was so overcooked that the pork was gray. The short ribs were almost charcoal cinder... the burned meat was next to all the other appetizers which, well, ruined the entire thing. So, I figured at least the lobster puffs were separate and looked amazing. I bit into one and it wasn't foul... it was just very confusing because it tasted completely different... I looked at the other half and was like wait... that's not lobster... that's a shrimp... so, I thought maybe it was an accident one off... nope, so apparently they switched to shrimp and are still charging for lobster... WOW. Let's say the restaurant ran out of lobster... I could completely see letting a customer know. That was not what happened here and as a customer, I am not a fan of being lied to especially in a world where people have allergies to proteins. Thankfully I'm not allergic to shrimp. I am allergic to being lied to.

Typically at most Chinese restaurants, especially fried dishes, you'll see a pool of oil at the bottom of the dish. This is not the case here, and their sauces also keep their oil usage to the minimum. The food doesn't feel as heavy, and they nail most of their Szechuan flavors well. Their service is always fast and friendly. There is a gentleman in glasses that is always happy to serve and answer your questions. He is always happy to pack your food for you to go if you have leftovers as well, which is a lovely gesture. They have very cute decorations inside, from lucky cats with fortune cookies in their mouths, or a painted wall with a Panda cooking delicious food. I'd steer clear from their soup dishes, most of them lack flavor. I highly recommend their Chopped Pepper Fish and their Jade Tofu items though. Very flavorful and not very heavy! Plenty of parking is available which is lovely for eating in Portland, do not let this spot be missed if you've never tried it!
