If you don't know anything about Panda Express, it's a franchise that is dominant in California and many other western states. When you think of Chinese food, forget the mom and pop ones that pop up everywhere and has horrible sanitary practices. Panda Express is far from that and does exceptionally well on health inspections.
This restaurant is very clean and modern, as are most Panda restaurants I have been in. The food is fresh and cooked in front of you. It's more of a fast food environment and not a sit down restaurant with a waiter. You walk down the line and pick your food. Check out my photos.
I ordered the 2 entree plate. First you pick rice, chow mein noodles, or a combo of both. For the rice, they have white, fried or brown. I usually go for the noodles.
Then you have a plethora of choices. If you're not sure, ask them for a sample. They also have wontons and eggrolls if you desire such. I picked orange chicken and teriyaki chicken with sauce on top.
You get a decent portion, but for some reason, today wasn't my day. Plenty of chow mein noodles, good helping of orange chicken, but really stingy on the teriyaki chicken. I only received about 6 pieces. Far less than the normal amount I receive from any Panda across the country; hence the one star deduction.
All in all, good place to eat. Being from California I'm familiar with Panda. Give it a shot if you have never been here. It will be worth it. Check out my pictures. The food tastes just as good as it looks. read more
