My FAVE CHINESE TAKE OUT IN TOWN!!!! Never in my life have I tasted egg rolls that are lip perfect and they are more than happy to accommodate you if you ask them to change up a meal for you and they have amazing prices!!!

When this business was open it was good but they are now closed forever. The BLDG no longer exist.

Unfortunately the Panda Garden is now CLOSED. Their last day was January 31, 2020. The building was sold to a car dealer and has been razed. The owner has no plans to reopen at another location.

I eat in this spot a lot since I work in the area. I have to say their service is always excellent and they keep the place well kept constantly. Pricing is reasonable and they serve large portions.

Epic fail! The food was just spectacularly bad! I don’t know how you can mess up fried rice, but this was horrible, tasteless and mushy. The “highly recommended” Panda Chicken was also tasteless, and what little flavor you could taste was terrible. The beef and broccoli was also insipid. The meat in both dishes was very poor quality. Only the egg roll was actually very good, and the hot and sour soup had ok flavor, but was mostly broth. I planned for days to visit this restaurant with the misconception of the promise of delicious Chinese food, only to find upon arrival that they didn't have their card machine running, so rather than get upset or let that deter us, we went all the way to an ATM to get cash out and return again with the false hope of an excellent dinner, and after we went above and beyond just to finally partake in food from here, we have never regretted spending money at a restaurant more than we did at this one, because it was just that bad. The owner and his wife seemed nice (although he tried to get me to buy a more expensive dish just because it was higher priced, with no other criteria than that, and yet we still we didn't let it get to us or dissuade us from continuing), but the food is just horrifically nasty. It was literally so bad that we ended up throwing most of it out once we got home and tasted it, because we lost our appetite entirely, as it was inedible. Please don't waste your money or your time here. Life is too short to eat bad food.

Can't believe they are shutting down! A true treasure after decades of delight. Genuine friendly service every time! Will miss them...

Food was awesome, tasted great, was nice quality, felt fine afterwards, good service, and all in a cheap package. Definitely coming back, and very excited to find a good Asian place.

Sadly no stars to give. I was just here with my family to have dinner and once we sat at the table with our food and I started to eat I realized the food was cold. I told the waitress "the food is cold" she goes to check the temp of the food and advises me she raised the temp of the pantries. As I proceeded to let her know that raising the temperature of the food can cause people to get sick it has meat, seafood, cheese which is worst!! she cuts me off and starts rambling on in her language to another staff member and ended up laughing. I felt extremely offended because although I am all for your primary form of communication, just rude to mock your customers. I decided to leave the restaurant and not pay for the food since we didn't touch a thing!!!!!!! Manager proceeds to say we need to pay for the soda yet the straws were untouched. I went above and beyond and returned my UNTOUCHED ice tea back into her cup from my personal cooler cup. Worst experience I ever had a restaurant. Good luck coming here!

I've been coming here for years and besides the hospitality the food is simply amazing! Loyal customer when visiting family in town.

This place should be closed. It was our first and last time ordering from here. Less than 2 weeks ago, I got a take out for 2, also waiting 25 min, my bf nor me were able to eat the food. That is, vegetable lomain and orange chicken. It looked like it has been tossed all day, NOT FRESH, mushy. We waisted our $20 on absolutely nothing because we ended up throwing it all away. No wonder the place is empty all the time, because all of it is such POOR QUALITY.

Looks shabby, but both the food, and service are excellent. Deserving 5 stars

Very well established local restaurant. The food is fantastic, the panda chicken is the secret goodness. All of the food is well portioned and priced as well. A nice sit down place with great interior, though small.

Nice place. Small, but clean. Menu very extensive, food was good. Service was excellent, served promptly and was very hot. Will go back. Price for 2 complete meals under $17.
