Panda Express

Always run out of something and you will always need to wait for like 5 – 10 mins to have it. Like every time.

Panda is not Chinese. We all know that. However, it’s usually pretty good. This one in particular is the most greasy Panda Express I have ever been to. And I have a little brother that drags me to a LOT of different pandas.
Food is good. Oddly enough, the lunch rush is usually the only time they actually have the line fully stocked. When it is slower, they usually don’t have stuff out there until people order it. So it isn’t exactly express. The greasy part is the worst though. And the lack of soy sauce without having to request it from a cashier, which requires stopping them when you realize it isn’t available with the chopsticks. They are always very busy and don’t like the interruption. All of the dining centers order free soy sauce packets, not sure why panda doesn’t.

Cheap, fast, and salty American-​Chinese food. Tastes good but may give you a headache if you don’t drink enough with it. You’re better off going to a real restaurant unless you’re in a hurry

This Panda is far and away the worst I’ve been to. Echoing Cathryn’s comment, the counter people here are terrible. They act as if serving you is a pain and the least important thing they do. They’re always out of certain items, and the portion size is the smallest I’ve ever seen. Also, no stars off for this, but Corvallis has finally started enforcing their idiotic bag ban, so unless you bring your own, expect to clumsily juggle your order trying to get to your car.

we’ve twice now I a really don’t want to go back. Everything and I mean everything is loaded with sugar, even the beef.
My wife, an Asian, doesn’t even want to go there any more.
Why would you put sugar coating on beef???

This Panda Express is next to Buffalo Wild Wings, and it is great! I’ve eaten there 3 times and it’s a «good» Panda Express. It’s been my experience that as a chain, Panda Express varies allot location to location. Who ever is running this place knows what they’re doing. The food is fresh, and wok’ed to perfection. All 3 times I went there, an older woman was working the front counter, and her customer service skills need improving. But I’ll put up with her to get me some quality fast food Chinese food!

Really not too great. The orange chicken was not really too flavorful. They went a little cheap with the sauce. The noodles were a bit tough and not prepared very well. Scorched and black in spots. The chain is going downhill fast.

Two words: Orange Chicken. It doesn’t matter if it’s fast food, when I’m craving Orange Chicken I need me some Panda. It’s greasy, filling, and stimulates the taste buds. Occasionally you’ll feel sick after eating too much of it.
At the OSU Panda, sometimes things are slow. Really slow. They’ll have to stack up orders while they wait for more food to cook. If it’s loud the people serving may have trouble hearing you or vice versa.
And if you’re getting a soda from Panda, don’t get anything larger than a medium. Even the medium is about the size of an extra big gulp, or whatever they’re called.
