“Almost didn't go here for lunch because some of the older reviews weren't great. Luckily, I went anyway and was pleasantly surprised. There was a line of about 10 people when I got there but the line moved quickly. There were at least five employees working, two in the front and three in the back. The employees in the front were very friendly, especially the one taking orders and making plates. She may have been a manager but she was definitely in charge, making sure that the employees in the back delivered trays of food the front to restock while also serving customers with a smile. It was clear that she was the reason this restaurant was running extremely well. I hope the owner appreciates this employee, good help is hard to find. Food was fresh and delicious (for panda). I'll definitely be going back again.“
“This is actually the best Panda Express I've ever been to. Mark is fantastic and one of the reasons I began to visit Panda Express regularly again. Last night was a disappointment, they forgot the teriyaki chicken portion for one of the Bigger Plates we ordered. We went home and noticed and I drove 15 minutes back to get the missing item. They replaced it, which was great, but unfortunately, Ana couldn't help but make a passive aggressive remark about how I didn't bring the food back. I didn't get it, what was I supposed bring back? Should I have brought back the whole order while my family waited another 30 minutes to eat? Would she have replaced the whole order or forced my family to eat a bunch of cold food?Mostly positive visits, but if you screw up, just fix the issue don't make passive aggressive remarks and make the customer feel bad for coming back to get everything they paid for.“
“You will eat the Beijing beef and you will enjoy it.If you choose not to enjoy that you will enjoy the orange chicken.Parking: The parking you should have seen it. There is so many spots I couldn't fathom a lot such as the one before me.“
“We had our catering order cancelled at 5:10pm for our party but the staff there did an amazing job! Kudos to this amazing team! We reordered and they had all the food ready in less than 20 minutes!!! Thank you so much to the staff there! We appreciate you so much!Parking: Very easy to find parking!“
“I like to go with friends to this place with my highest recommendations. I go to this restaurant often. I get very good feedback from my friends. The the food there is delicious and the stuff is welcoming and cooperative. Whenever we eat in this place we have a cheerful evening. warmly recommended.“
“Placed a carry out order during peak lunch rush this week. The store was PACKED but the employees couldn't have been kinder. I had to wait a bit for one of my items to be replenished which took a few minutes but the cashier was super kind even though she had customer after customer to checkout. Once I got my food, I sat at a table in the back. Each table was cleaned or being cleaned by another employee. The food was delicious, hot and fresh. This location is ran super well and has much friendlier staff than other locations in the loop. Great job to the team at this location!“
“I went to this Panda Express for lunch and they were very fast. I usually have to wait a very long time for the orange chicken but this time they had plenty of it and went literally in and out. I LOVE their orange chicken, I tried making my own at home and it didn’t taste the same obviously lol I have to steal the secret recipe. I will end up asking the TikTok guy that knows all the fast food secrets. But 10/10“
“Very clean. Staff friendly and highly efficient. They all work in unison, like they can read each other minds. The food is ALWAYS fresh and delicious. Never been disappointed. Ample seating but it will get crowded around lunch time. Lots of high school kids from down the street but very well behaved. Great seating layout.“
“Since January of 2024, I have had a few stops for dining at Panda Express #2685 located on Cicero Ave and 65th Street, Chicago, IL.Although the staff is different each time I was there, I anticipated the same superior customer service, calming atmosphere, and the uniquely distinctive Chinese food taste I was craving for. And yes, indeed, I got them all.During my last dining experience on Tue, Feb. 20, Ana was in charge and she effortlessly demonstrated her skills from Spanish to English or vice versa. Meanwhile, she quickly resolved two requests of mine.Kudos, Ana!“
“Stopped by for lunch during work. Luckily, no line. Was greeted the moment I walked in. I got a medium entree of teriyaki chicken without sauce, one of my staples because it's healthy (it's just grilled chicken) and filling! The teriyaki chicken was ready, so I didn't have to wait and I was able to quickly pay and get back to enjoying lunch. Good experience!“
“This Panda Express is located inside of the Ogilvie Station on the 1st floor. I gotta say, if you want to get the best bang for buck, order the Bowls or Family Meals and do a 1/2 of the sides and main protein. It's the only way to get a mix of proteins while keeping calories under 500. My favorite go-tos are: Bowls with half fried-rice and half super greens (brocolli) with Kung Pao Chicken or Mushroom Chicken. This is place is good for an office meal and bowls average under $9 at regular serving size. I wish they offered a loyalty program. But fear not, save those receipts, do their surveys and get free entrees.“
“I love the food @Panda Express! There is usually a long wait here at this location and the food is not always the freshest! I know the worker’s are constantly moving, so I can understand if some things fall behind, especially, when they are understaffed & the line it’s halfway out of the door!!!“
“They must have just refurbished this location looking at the previous pics! Very clean and new.Staff were very friendly (kudos to Laura) and efficient! I had the shrimp sizzling bowl, it was freshly made and delicious like always! Strongly recommend this location.“
“I love the food! There's a great selection to choose from. The service is fantastic each time I visit.Vegetarian options: Customers can ask the staff questions about vegetarian selections.Parking: Parking is not a problem.Kid-friendliness: Selections available for children to choose from.Wheelchair accessibility: No worries!“
“The only Panda Express location I can recommend as food is decently and freshly prepared, excellent staff with a weekly deal of small entree when you participate in survey.Lunch rush CAN get long and slow that I went to another vendor.When Others are closed, PANDA EXPRESS is *still* open. Therefore, more likely ... YOU will eat here. ?PS - I ❤️❤️ my pale fortune cookie. ?“
“honestly not bad!! extremely smooth ordering process and they make sure i order the right servings to get the most bang for my buck. only bad thing is that they don’t give fortune cookies or offer condiments often, and apple pay never works. otherwise, never gotten food poisoning like older other reviews have said, and i’ve never had a stingy unfilled container, and it’s fast and organized, im never gonna stop going here tbh“
“The main building was currently under construction as of the time I visited, but the service was superb.I was literally starving and could barely talk *chuckles *. But the fast response was a life saver, queue was short almost nothing. Waiter was polite and courteous, food was tasty ...what more can a hungry jack want after walking half of the beautiful city of Chicago“
