Panda Express

Average… not always staffed to keep up w/​lines and demand. Out of white rice and brown rice in middle of day yesterday.

This place is pretty good for quick American Chinese food, but don’t get the chow mein. The noodles are tough to eat, covered with a thin layer of greese, and are pretty much tasteless. The mixed vegetables were fresh and crunchy however, I liked those.

You have to take into consideration that this is a Panda Express… aka…its not real chinese food.
So on top of that note, this Panda (compared to all other Panda’s I have been to) is a-​ok. The workers there are pretty friendly, but nothing extra ordinary. And it is located in BU’s George Sherman Union, which has been renovated and looks amazing!
P. S. get the honey walnut shrimp! DELICIOUS…

Horrible service, pricey for fast food.

One of the worst Asian food purveyor, and «Asian» here is loosely defined. Very generic, and way too much seasonings. Also way too much sugar. On top of all those defects, those food made my stomach upset. Everyone knows Panda Express is the farthest thing from authentic Asian food, and it’s just bad

Another not even really good bad American Chinese place. But, as my friend who’s part Chinese and from Hawai’i and should know better about Chinese food says, «ORANGE CHICKEN, DUDE!»
It IS good (though nothing to shout about). And, thankfully, you can get it for each entrée. I love the pork spareribs, though.

the Panda is delicious

BU opened this Panda Express at the very beginning of my senior year, replacing a very mediocre Burger King. It was the happiest and saddest food moment of my college life, as I was ecstatic to finally have an option for decent, Chinese-​ish food in Boston (and I could pay with it using my dining points, to boot) but sad they hadn’t opened it sooner! Plus, I was tiring of Aesop’s, Cranberry Farms, and cold, soggy BK «chicken nuggets» being my only food choices in the GSU. (Current students, you don’t know HOW well you’ve got it.)
So, basically, it’s a Panda Express. It’s not real Chinese food, it’s mall Chinese food. But it’s still stir-​fried-​rice-​and-​noodles-​with-​fortune-​cookies-​and-​chopsticks, and that made me a very, very happy student.
My favorites were Orange Chicken (pretty self-​explanatory,) Mongolian Chicken (chicken with mushrooms and other veggies,) and my all-​time-​fave, Mandarin Chicken (which is in a light gingery sauce.) I often switched between Panda Bowls of these with fried rice, which is fluffy and not too greasy, and the chow mein, which is closer to lo mein, really. It goes well with those Lipton Real Iced Teas they sell in the drink case.
Anyway, I ate here once or twice a week during senior year thanks to the fabulous 9-​Plus Plan. I still get random cravings for it, and I still have mad chopstick skillz as a result.
It’s less greasy than the chopstick-​free one in the Pru, too.

I am probably going to die sooner or later because of how much of their food I eat. All that american chinese can possibly not be good for me. BUT, I still love it. Its cheap and 100% oily junk. It has made surviving in school without knowing how to cook easier. It has, of course, also made me ** pounds heavier.
Sometimes I think I am the only person who loves them so much. Their food is un-​authentic (you know it!), but its still decent. I like their chicken dishes a lot.
