The place was busy during dinner rush, I expected the orange chicken to be fresh and crunchy because of dinner rush but not the case, orange chicken was chewy like it had been sitting there since lunch. The chow mein ran out so I had to wait 5-7 minutes for them to cook it. Kung pao was okay.

Cheap, fresh, delicious! Exceptional service every time I come in, whether they are dead slow or super busy. Expect a bit of a wait if they are slammed-- that's the price for the remarkably fresh food. Crisp, perfectly cooked veggies every time, a growing rarity. The spring rolls invade my dreams, and the orange chicken is majorly drool-worthy. When I want something a tad healthier, I go for mixed veggies instead of rice (somewhat bland fried rice anyway) or chow mein, with Kung pao chicken or string bean chicken. I got a mushy serving once, but usually delicious. I eat here often enough to make my other half complain, but I never seem to get sick of it. Love love love!

Staff is always friendly and quick, even during rush times and having to deal with some, ahem, less than ideal customers ahead of me. Food is what you would expect, a little salty, but the flavour is there. Happy I can get a massive dinner for 350 calories thanks to their meal builder online. Always nice to not have to cook. And hats off to the single chef tonight cooking up what I counted to be SIX different dishes at once. Impressive! It's good, cheap, and can be quite healthy if you pick and choose. I'll be back.

Mall Chinese food of the burbs. Mediocre even for fast Chinese food. Stingy portions and way over priced. Chicken with string beans had thigh meat with tons of fat, wasn't trimmed well. Beijing beef was better. Staff unfriendly. Not coming back. What can you expect from fast Chinese food? With that in mind it's about right. Oh and cheap ass plastic fork the broke when stabbing broccoli.

I stopped at a lot of Pandas when I'm in a hurry and traveling through the city. I always get the same thing a half scoop of this the half scoop of that and I try 4 or 5 things make a meal out of it and let them charge me what they want. At this particular location I told the server I wanted a small portion of a lot of things and I didn't care what it cost and she promptly put a full overflowing scoop of the first item on my carton. I repeated I preferred a very small portion of a lot of things not one large portion of one thing and she promptly put a full overflowing scoop of my second choice on my carton. She kindly reminded me twice it was going to cost me extra. I ended up with enough food for a week but I got tired of explaining to her what I wanted. At checkout I asked for some chili paste which she must ask the cook for. I get a little container of it at every Panda Express I have ever been to. This woman tells me I can't have it and its only for the cooks. Explain to her that the cooks can put it in that little plastic container and they they do it at every location, she told me no again until the cook intervened. The food here is edible not fabulous and certainly not worth going through all of that to get a mediocre meal.

This panda express must be doing well, as they have three Subaru outback cars for catering. Hmm. Anyway, I came here for lunch, very busy. The line was very long, it actually wrapped around the lobby. Food however was fresh and even though there was a piece of bacon in my steamed veggies from their new bacon and orange chicken I won't make too big of a deal. The parking sucks. Its labeled for compact but there's too many suv double parking and its really not easy to get into.

Sometimes I wonder if the staff are forced to not smile... Only reason I come here is because I'm on my lunch break and its a step up from fast food but just barely. The food is barely warm and rice is dry.

I pick up take-out food here occasionally for myself and my young children. The portions are generous, so I can usually get more than one meal out of the combo meal options. I like that they offer healthy side items at no extra charge too. I typically select the brown rice and steamed vegetables as sides. I do wish they didn't charge more for the steak and seafood entrees, but I can understand why they do. Some of the entree sauces can be heavy, and quite sugary, so I avoid those selections. It is helpful they offer a sample taste of any item to help you decide on your meal. However, one complaint I have is that I often feel rushed by the server to decide quickly and move down the line. I don't like to feel rushed. I go here when I desire quick Asian food, with a variety of healthier choices, for a reasonable price.

I've had better service at this location than most other Panda Express locations i have been to! The staff is quick and friendly (with the exception of one guy who i think may be a manager or franchise owner....fortunately i have only seen him in there and endured his rude service twice, he never seems to be around). On occasions when the food under the heat lamps has looked a little wilted they always ask "Do you want to wait __ minutes for it to be fresh?" Usually they cook a new batch really quickly, in about 1-2 minutes, it seems like they are really on top of keeping product fresh and well stocked. The food isn't really authentic Chinese and the sauces all kind of taste similar, but i feel like it is really fresh, fast, and healthy compared to a lot of the other quick food option in the area. Though they don't immediately offer it you can get steamed veggies as a side instead of fried rice or chow mein, a good way to cut down on the calories and carbs.

I'm always very pleased with this place. It doesn't pretend to be anything other than quick, fast, Americanized Chinese food. The staff is always courteous, and the food is quite tasty for what it is. I can also feed myself, wife and two kids for under $25 here. Compared to other fast food joints the cost is about the same but I feel like the quality of the food at this happy panda is better than any McDonald's or Burger King.

3.5 stars If I'm in need of some quick decent Asian-ish food, I go here. I like the option of getting mixed veggies instead of rice/noodle, make it feel healthier. They always offered if I wanted to taste anything before ordering, nice touch. Food seems fresh. They only cook more if the one is running out, I always hear the server note to the kitchen which one is running low. Place is clean, quick, friendly and plenty of parking.

Okay, as far as Panda Express goes, this one is exceptional. We came here after our ill-fated trip to the one on Pacific Highway. We come to this one when we make the long journey out to Beaverton. No I did not drive all the way to Beaverton just to go to this Panda, it was on the way! (Or so I tell myself). There is always a line that seems off-putting at first, but then you go inside and see how fast that line moves and it is not an issue at all. The food is fresh and well stocked at all times. And they post all the different fundraising opportunities as well as the free kid's meal night on Wednesdays. If the other locations participate they don't have it displayed so prominently. Alright, that's it, no more Panda reviews :)

It is okay for a Chinese fast food place. It is like expecting to have good Mexican food at Taco Bell or American food at McDonalds. It is a fast food joint but maybe a little healthier for you. The portions are decent and the service is quick. If you're hungry and in a hurry not wanting to call a head to your local Chinese restaurant to make an order this is a safe bet. The food is good, hot and good portions. A safe backup for when you just have to have some Chinese food on the run.

Maybe it's the location because the food is not very fresh. I usually get it around 630pm, which one would think is busy time so the food would be fresh, but it just isn't the case here. Too bad too, it's the nearest one.

Great service!! Staff went above and beyond. To be specific, I ordered broccoli beef and the manager gave it to me for free because it had been sitting for a while. I just like that they are looking out for the customers. Also, the food is tasty.

I've been eating here for a long time, can almost walk in and say, "The Usual." and expect to get what I want. The people are friendly. I like to eat a lot of vegetables, but I want them fresh textured, not overcooked. If something looks a little weary, I can ask for a fresh batch, and it will be prepared. How's that for obliging? There's enough meat and sauce for taste, but no gumminess. As a low carb person, I especially appreciate the mixed vegetable option instead of having to take rice or noodles. It's not "gourmet" Chinese but is fast, fresh and tasty. I'm a happy visitor!

I stopped in for a late dinner with a coupon I received during a previous visit for free Firecracker chicken. The servers were confused by the coupon, and the sample was barely lukewarm. They did offer to make some fresh for me when I asked. I ordered a side of vegetables, for which I was quoted $2.50, then charged $2.70 at the register, but only given $2.00 change for my $5 bill. I don't care about the extra cost, but the lack of knowledge is a bit annoying. Doesn't seem like it should be that difficult.

Last three times the food has been tasting worse and worse. They don't care if you don't like it, and want it fresh. you literally have to argue with them if you want them to fix it. Tell me why should I bring my business back. So warning to anybody who is thinking of going there. I gave them three chances to many.
