Got take out that we picked up. No Chow Mein (and they were not making any more, even though 2 other customers wanted it, not including myself), No Fried Rice, Undercooked Steamed Rice, No Soy Sauce, Portions Were Small Compared To Usual

This is the cleanest fast food restaurant that I’ve ever been in and this includes the ladies room. I couldn’t believe how clean the restroom was and everything worked, there was water in the sink, soap, paper towels and the floor was spotless. This is also the busiest location I’ve ever been to especially if you go around dinner time. They run out of items pretty fast but they are constantly cooking new food and refilling to keep up with the crowd. You can always be sure that the food is fresh and very tasty, if you don’t want the end of what’s left in the pan they’ll make it fresh and it only takes about 6 minutes.They were also fully staffed and kept the line moving. Kudos to the Management team and also the entire staff for doing such a great job!

Let me start off strong, this is one of the best Panda locations there is. People like the lady Anita will treat you with kindness and like family. The food is also very fresh and great! If there is only little left of something like chow mein, they will gladly make you a fresh batch. Thank you so much Anita for the best experiences you have given us each time we go there.

I’ve been eating in Panda restaurants going back to 1980’s to the Panda in Pasadena in the days when Andrew use to walk the restaurant floor and greet the customers and say hello. Over the years, living from California to Virginia to Texas and back.. I’ve been a “regular “. Tonight at the Carlsbad location, close to 8:30pm and “Kat” was the most negative employee I’ve ever encountered at any Panda or Panda Express. I was indecisive, every time I asked it was “no I can’t, no we don’t,”.. negative negative. She offered no alternatives. I always get a bowl when I carry out because the white container exploded all over my new car a few months ago. The bowl never leaks. I wanted half broccoli half string beans. She offered no alternatives, she never offered an ala cart or side .. just no no no. Real bummer negative person. Understandably the green beans were starting to wilt.. it was closing time. There was a new vegan type chicken I was so excited to try but nope Kat says I can’t try that she had to throw it in the trash (don’t let the last customer of the night sample a new entree! Maybe I’ve just outgrown the Panda scene. I know it’s hard finding good help but geez..the thought of Kat behind the counter .. I’d rather put needles in my eyes than have to deal with her attitude. Corporate office is closed but I’ll be placing a call on Monday morning.

Terrible fried rice and chow main . We tried multiple locations before deciding to never visit again.

I have never really considered the food at Panda Express to be anything other than fairly ordinary. With that said it’s a good place to get a quick lunch which was what I was in the mood to do. Their new menu item the “greens’ was very bland. My suggestion would be to add a stir fry sauce or some seasonings. For this reason I gave it three stars.

Today June 8th I placed an online order for my daughter to pick up. There was a miscommunication between her and I that I needed to cancel our order. When I called I was worried it would be an issue and I would have to drive across town when I wasn’t feeling well. The gentlemen at the store was very kind and told me it wasn’t a problem to cancel. I received an email that my order was adjusted with a nice little note to feel better. Thank you for your kindness. Since covid it seems people lost their compassion and I’m grateful your employees still showed some.

I walk here everyday for my daily order. Clean, fast, great-tasting food. Don’t mind the other reviews – long lines are a great sign and they help you out fast. Your food will only be cold if you order pick-up and don’t pick it up for several hours lmao.

I eat here often, at least once a week and I am alway disappointed. Very basic selection of dishes and agonizingly slow service every time.

What can I say …. this is a panda express. Fast service. Food is okay, workers were friendly but you could tell they just wanted the day to be over.
