Panda Express

One of the nicer Panda Express locations. It has lots of Orange Chicken available at a time and there is never a big crowd. The Mira Mesa one is okay but it gets crowded during dinnertime. Good location across from the car wash and candy shop. A better choice for fast food dining.

Love love love their fried rice! I could eat it all the time! Their dishes have lots of flavor and always taste fresh. Excellent place for fast food Chinese and the prices are good considering they give you enough for lunch and dinner most times! Generous portions for sure!

Here’s the deal… the food is usually pretty decent but the people that work there annoy the living snot out of me. The usual routine when placing an order is «I’ll have a two item with Angus Bee…» then I am interrupted with «that’s $ 1.25 extra». OK, fine, just let me finish my damn order before you decide to interrupt me. It is rude, it is annoying and it is unnecessary. By the way, it is prominently displayed on the sign by the bin where the Angus Beef is. Most of us can read, OK? Then, when paying there is always a pitch to donate my change. WTF? Donate my change? What you ought to be doing instead is thanking me profusely for spending my money in your damn business instead of trying to extract more, OK?
I’d go more often if I didn’t have to endure that crap.

What else can you ask for. Great Food, Great Services, Best Price. Thx PX… #Ballers

Man right away this service has been by far the nicest, most welcoming Panda we’ve ever experience. We don’t eat here much ever so coming here after a long weekend was a great end.
The girls are super nice and welcoming and I definitely recommend coming here versus any near by or closer to you.
This place is super new or just kept in excellent shape.
All the food was utterly perfect and hot.
We got in and out in less the 5 mins.
The interactions of the girls working was awesome, they switch off but let you know who’s gonna handle the rest of the order.
I dig the way they work things, it makes you feel like your being taken care of.
From the moment we walked in to the moment we left they were full of smiles & good energy.

I walked in and many of their choice of food trays were empty clean. I asked why and they said they would make whatever I wanted which is great, IF I HAD THE TIME TO LOUNGE AROUND!
What makes Panda Express great is the food quality at EXPRESS DELIVERY!
And the walk through door windows were nasty dirty…

Let me start by saying that I love chinese food. This garbage does not count in my book. Dried out flavorless fried rice, heatlamp burned entrees with misc chicken parts, over priced. No need for a long review here as this food speaks for itself. I would steer clear

Yummy Surf and Turf! New item on the menu. I think the employees at this location are very friendly. :)

One of the better locations, food is never dry\stale, service is prompt. They’re never empty at this location, and for good reason.

Super quick! Went in one night not knowing they were soon to be closing. I told them i would leave and go somewhere else so they could get home to thier families. They told me no and that they would cook my order on site. They were so nice and generous. Have been going there frequently and will continue to come back for those eggrolls and cream cheese wontons!!!

I was in and out in less than 2 minutes!
Super fast service.
Super friendly workers all around.
$ 5.99 for 2 entrée combo is not too high in price.
Food wasn’t sitting there too long because food was still warm.
Can’t go wrong with the orange and mandarin chickens.
Some entrée spots were empty so I couldn’t order my normal mandarin chicken.

Panda Express has upped their game in the past years and their entrees taste a bit better, are less greasier, and are priced better.
The new shrimp options (honey walnut and shrimp treasure?) are favs of mine, along with the ever reliable orange chicken and beef with broccoli (trying to get those vegetable in somehow).
Of course, nothing compares to a traditional Chinese meal but for a quick soy sauce fix, I can rely on Panda Express.

The kids and I went here to grab some lunch and while it might not be the most authentic Chinese food, it is fresh and quick. I find that it fills the needs of what we were looking for.
They offer many different options/​combos to choose from and my kids tend to go with a rice bowl with either beef and broccoli or orange chicken. Way more food then either of them can handle. I opted to go with a combo plate with chicken and mushrooms served with fried rice and chow mein. I was able to finish it off however left feeling extremely full. I had an exhausting morning so I needed to load up on my carbs.
The restaurant itself can get very busy and parking can be a little tough as the spaces are rather small. The inside is clean and even with the crowds the do a nice job of keeping the place spotless.
There is not an over abundance amount of seating inside and the way the layout is, you always feel as though someone is eavesdropping on your conversation. Ok, perhaps that is the paranoid side of me coming out. :-) Seriously though, the tables are close to each other but it is a fast food restaurant and I guess that is expected.
Panda Express is a good fast food option if you’re looking to get away from the regular burger type restaurant

Great food and a clean location. This panda express gets a lot of business so the food is rotated on a regular basis which is good because it’s more freshness. My only concern is this particular location has given me diarrhea a couple of times which I haven’t gotten at other panda locations eating the same stuff. Could be coincidence. Great food though!

I come here for the orange chicken. This place is not authentic but it’s good fast food chinese. Make sure you come during lunch or dinner hours so that the food is fresh. I’ve gone in around, 3:00 and it tasted like old stale chinese food that has been just sitting there. Their fried rice is bland, needs more soy sauce. I like how they allow you to get half fried rice and half chow mein. The chow mein is really oily though. The sweet fire chicken is pretty good too. They have a new beef dish — kobari beef. This has is good too but the portions are more vegetable than beef. Service is always nice and quick.

you’ve all been there, what is there to say? orange chicken.

EXTREMELY Rude people behind the counter.

This review isn’t so much about the food as about the service. Pretty much all Panda Express’ are the same: yummy, fast-​food chinese; but I received better service here then I sometimes get at «higher-​quality» restuarants.
I stopped here one night to pick up some dinner and all I wanted was an order of orange chicken. The didn’t have enough to fill my order and said it would be about 8 – 10 minutes wait for a fresh batch. I had no where to go and didn’t mind waiting, when I told them they handed me a cup for water, which I thought was really nice. I got some water and sat down and a minute later the same person brought me two eggrolls and sauce on the house to make-​up for the wait. I was super happy, especially since I already had no problem waiting.
On top of this, when my order was ready and I went to pay they gave me 10% off my order because I had to wait. Really excellent customer service here. Other businesses could stand to learn from these people how to properly treat customers.

I like the beijing beef and orange chicken, I believe the guy above this post is racist because even if the owners chinese he never works the cash register so whats the point? You sound like you attend this joint as much as me and if you do than you would know that only mexican girls work the register. Well to think of it, there all mexican working there.

Located in a tiny strip mall with a tiny lot with tiny spaces. Don’t bring your big SUV here or it’s DING DOOR CITY!
Once inside you’ll notice the food has been sitting on the heaters for quite a while.
That’s during dinner time.
During a typical lunch hour the dudes on the woks can’t keep up and the food seems to always run out.
There’s a lack of communication here.
Well it could be due to the fact that the Chinese owner/​manager can’t speak Spanish?
