Love Panda Express. Go twice a week Stated going back in July 2015. The place is very clean and the outside is nice. They did a great job. Great manager now. He’s doing a great job. Very friendly. Staff are friendly customer service excellent

Consistently good and affordable Chinese food! However, I pulled in last night at 8:58 and ordered my my favorite walnut shrimp and Beijing beef. They didn’t have either of those entrees. The person taking my order told me that it was because they were closing soon. They close at 9:30! That was disappointing! I don’t think that’s a good sales strategy and I doubt anyone above the store manager level knows that’s happening. I personally don’t want to go back because I don’t feel like they want my business. Companies should realize how little things like this impact their revenue. Give me my walnut shrimp!

Love panda, though this one was a little bit of a let down. Noodles were old and dry, orange chicken was being held to long, really hard!

For a fast food Chinese restaurant, it is ok. It’s Americanized, so the interior is a lot cleaner and the people that work here are friendlier than most Chinese takeout places. It’s kind of similar to those places in the mall where you pick what you want from a buffet. Service is kind of slow sometimes. They usually only have two people working the front (one on drive through and one for the customers inside). Sometimes they are out of a food item you want, so unless you’re willing to wait for it, you’d better order something else!
I normally order the orange chicken or the Beijing beef. Both are consistently good in flavor and are readily available to order with no wait. I’ll sometimes get their monthly specialty item, which is normally good too. Fried rice and noodles are bland. I add soy sauce and sriracha and I’m good!
So not the best of places to eat, but it’s right by my job and a lot faster than the couple of other Chinese places I’ve ordered from in Largo area.

I absolutely love Panda Express but this one really disappointed me. We stopped and got food to go so I can’t say much about the dining experience but the food wAs not good. The orange chicken is usually to die for but it was all dry and crunchy and gross the chow mien was tasteless and the noodles were rather hard too. The fried rice was not good either tasted like nothing, I decided to try the spring rolls this time and they weren’t too bad but nothing exciting. I won’t let this experience ruin Panda Express for me though!

I was driving down the road and got hit by a Chinese food craving. First appropriate place I passed was this Panda Express. I’d never eaten at one nor even knew anyone that said they did, and thought, what the heck, I’ll give it try, just in case it turns out well.
The décor is pretty typical of a fast food restaurant, but it was clean and neat. My order for orange chicken with vegetables was taken promptly, and a few minutes later they announced my order was ready.
The meal was about what I’d expect from a mall food court Chinese place… in other words, not very good. The vegetables tasted frozen, and the sauce was very bland. Chinese food should taste much better, and there are some number of alternatives in this neighborhood. I won’t return.
