Cheap lunch specials and it's quick. A lunch will get you fried rice, your entree, and an egg roll (they can sub for soup if you don't want an egg roll). Definitely recommend if you're looking for quick and cheap Chinese food. read more

China Panda - Chinese Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Not a fan of this Chinese food. The pork fried rice was bland and unappealing. I ordered dine-in and yet the food came in a to go box, so I just rolled with it and slid into a booth. No napkins or utensils or seasonings were in the bag, so I helped myself. So much for service. The "iced tea" was undrinkable. Unless you want to head straight to the dentist office, avoid this disgustingly sweet beverage all together. I tossed it. Wasted my moolah here. Typical plain seating, virtually no ambiance. It's a "no" for me, dawg. read more

We always order through Beyond Menu. Normally we don't have an issue. Sometimes, we do. Tonight was the last time we will be ordering g from them. I put in my dietary restrictions and when the order showed up, it was all wrong. When I called to just get the rice replaced (I can't do fried and can only eat white), they said nothing but someone would call me back. This is NOT the first time this has happened. Also, egg rolls were DRIPPING with oil. Used to love this place. Not anymore. read more

Have you ever noticed that you can get a great meal from a complete dump? Aside from the bus station ambience, this place has excellent food! The prices are reasonable, and the portions are very generous. Give them a try.... read more

The place was very clean when I went to get my food and the staff was very nice! The girl who took my order was kind and very friendly, id definitely go again. read more

Used to be the best cheap Chinese place in town, but they've swapped out ingredients and their chef quit or they have new owners or something. Went from delicious dumplings to frozen garbage dumplings, great meat to stale tough meat, worse sauces, the food took a nosedive across the board. I ate there for years, it's a terrible shame for the place to decline so badly. read more

My favorite go to place for Chinese food still The food is amazing Service is amazing Delivery is FAST it's also cheap asl What more could you ask for from Chinese take out read more

I decided to stop by this establishment during my work shift; the appearance leaves nothing to be desired. Boxes of fortune cookies and condiments fill a quarter of the restaurant, and the woman taking my order was hard of hearing; I guess the thick Plexi glass didn't help either. I digress, I ordered the fried chicken wings and fried rice combo for an exasperated price of $9.50, but I was hungry and on a time crunch. After a ten-minute wait, the server handed me a bag with my order; I took my order to go; I discovered later that there were no utensils nor napkins with my food, annoyed I tried the fried chicken wing, which wasn't bad but not worth the price this restaurant was charging, the rice was okay but a bit bland. Overall I would avoid visiting this establishment unless you're desperate for Chinese takeout. read more

Beware if you order the teriyaki chicken, they use the fattiest, slimiest most gristle infested chicken they can find. Couldn't even eat it, took it back and got a refund. The place in the mall has better chicken teriyaki and it's cheaper!! If you like slimy chicken flavored chewing gum then this China panda is for you! read more

I ordered Meo Fun , special and the Mei Fun Chicken, and the first impressive thing was that they cook on order. Nothing like the fast food precooked stuff. The food was fresh, delicious, and plenty! The prices were fair and customer service is excellent ! This is a great place to dine outside or have a casual date launch . The lobby was clean and tidy and they have those cozy leather seats, read more

China Panda - China Panda never disappoints! Stellar food at good price open until 11pm! A life saver - Chinese Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

The service was very good. The woman at the counter was sweet and didn't do anything wrong. The mock sesame chicken was absolutely delicious. The recipe is nice and sweet with the perfect combo of savoriness. And the mock chicken was crispy, but chewy at the same time. They also gave me some rice with a fortune cookie. read more

I wish this place wasn't so far from the city. I travel from near downtown out to this location when we want really good chinese food. This location has the best chicken on a stick. I do not know what they do to it, but it taste much better than any other local place. The people are friendly, and were willing to change my order when I arrived, with no issues or attitudes. I will continue coming out here when we are having that hankering, but just sad its so far away from me. read more

I purchased food from here a few months ago and me & my entire family had stomach pain and diarrhea for two days. I wasn't sure if it was because of the food we ate from this place, but I am pretty sure it was. Yesterday, we ordered Orange Chicken & Steamed broccoli & a few other items. The chicken was barely cooked and had an awful smell to it. The broccoli was barely steamed. I will NEVER order from this place ever again. read more

Lots of veggie options. Very friendly staff. My favorite is the mixed veggies with garlic sauce.

The service was mediocre at best, the food had NO flavor, the Lo mein was dry and tasted old, the "fried rice" only had onions in it, and to top it off, my egg roll sat in the little bag in a pool of grease. I hadn't been that disgusted by food in a very long time! Never ever will I go there again! read more

China Panda - Greasy egg roll! - Chinese Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Not great but certainly good enough. China Panda does a good job on the basics (especially Hot and Sour Soup). Plus I can place my order on-line and swing by for pick-up on my way home. read more

I popped into China Panda last week to get lunch carryout. First things first: I had to use the restroom. It was built and/or designed by a man. No hook to hang your purse, and no fixtures with a flat surface to set it on. Having taken care of the basics, albeit awkwardly, I went to the front counter and ordered the Pepper Steak lunch special. Pretty basic: Tri-sectional clam shell. Egg roll in one pocket, mediocre rice (something between white rice & fried rice) in another pocket, and the pepper steak in the larger section. Back at home, lunchtime: It was good... I ate every bit, but there was nothing to differentiate it from dozens of other Asian bistros in the same ZIP code. The store was clean; parking was easy; and the man at the front counter was very pleasant. read more

My wife and I LOVE good egg drop and hot and sour soup. Our "regular" Chinese carry out was closed today (Monday) so we decided to try this restaurant. We both had a taste for egg drop this time so gave it a go. It was HORRIBLE! It was like water, and it tasted like it was topped off with hot water in order to make it full. The egg should be somewhat suspended in the water, but the little amount of egg that WAS in the soup water was sitting on the bottom of the container. I do not think we will be trying this place again in the future. read more

China Panda - Egg drop water. - Chinese Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

I am quite surprised at the reviews because I do not understand how I can order two completely different dishes and they both taste the same. We ordered the Szechuan Beef and the Hunan Beef--neither one of us could tell the difference. I am one of those types who loves spicy food so when I realized that the Szechuan didn't have a drop of spice to it I wanted to throw the whole bowl away! The Hunan was just bland and sad tasting, like they must use a basic brown sauce and believe that adding different veggies will make it better. It really doesn't. Fortunately adding my own seasonings salvaged the meal but if I needed to do that, why bother ordering from there again? The saving grace were the sugar donuts because I have been craving some of those things for a while. They tasted fresh and chewy, just the way I like them. I would go back for the donuts (only because the location is convenient), but not anything else honestly. read more

Customer service appears discriminatory, we ordered from this place previously. We asked for vegan selections due to allergy restrictions and shrimp was in the egg rolls. Not to mention the delivery driver opted to deny service for waiting 5 minutes at our location. Our community is a new development and is pretty large. Despite there error we opted to take the loss on that order and give them another chance but China panda on Quiocasin rd. refused to deliver because we didn't answer a random FaceTime number. We even tipped the driver to no avail the courtesy wasn't returned. read more

We accidentally ordered from this China Panda instead of the one in the fan and were dismayed that we had to drive so far but when we got the food we were happy we did. It was all so good and tasted incredibly fresh. My family especially loved the mock beef and broccoli. The broccoli was cooked perfectly and the sauce they had the beef in was incredibly comforting. Now when we really want to treat ourselves we make the 30 minute drive to this China panda. read more

I used to love this place. The lunch menu offers good food at decent prices. But since covid, they have set up a system at the front of the building which prevents any kind of contact between them and you. This is responsible in theory and I have no issue with it. But the woman you have to deal with is really unpleasant and impatient. She doesn't speak fluent English and makes gestures at you to order you around with the new process. It's honestly kind of stressful. I will try them again after they are back to normal but until then, I'll go to Tiki Tiki or Panda Express. read more

If you're in the nabe, this little place does a good job on the basic Chinese take-out oeuvre, with a few ruffles and flourishes that make it worth the trip, or the call for delivery. Their hot and sour soup is consistently good. Anything with broccoli in it never disappoints. They take special requests like "please no green peppers" without batting an eye, and you get it how you asked for it. It's not blazing any Asian-cuisine trails, but neither is anyone else who leaves menus on your apartment door. These folks do a good job, and are my neighborhood go-to for Chinese food. read more

On the path towards sampling the Chinese Restaurants in RVA, I stumbled across China Panda. It had been roughly five years since I visited this location for lunch, but I when I did I remember that the restaurant had good food. So how did my experience this time go? To find out, read below. The Good: Online Ordering- Because I despise involuntarily alerting my coworkers that I am ordering lunch, I truly appreciated the online ordering feature for this restaurant. Taste of Chicken Wings- Chicken wings were cooked nicely and had a nice crunch to them when consumed. Taste of Won Ton Soup- Won Ton had a good flavor, nothing extraordinary or terrible. Prices- The order of 8 chicken wings was $5.20, small chicken fried rice was $4.95 and won ton soup was $1.50. Those prices are very reasonable considering that some Chinese restaurants in RVA charge $1-$3 more for the same items listed. The Not So Good: Delivery Minimum- The delivery minimum is $13. Its not an outrageous minimum, but as a frugal spender, I would be more comfortable with a $10 minimum, especially if the restaurant is less than 2 miles away from me. Speed of Delivery- Delivery took roughly an hour. For a restaurant that is less than 2 miles away, its hard to imagine why the delivery had taken so long but it was still inexcusable. Taste of the Chicken Fried Rice- I hate being a stickler on chicken fried rice, but its my favorite dish and I like my rice to be greasy but flavorful. This rice was slightly greasy and lacked much needed flavor. The Bad: NA Overall- I wasn't a big fan of the time it took to get food delivered to me and the taste of the chicken fried rice, but the other menu items that I ordered had a good taste to them and I could definitely see myself getting carry out from this place if I was in the area again. THREE STARS. read more

Amazing vegan selection. My favorite is mock sweet and sour chicken. Spring rolls are great, too.

Local place, great carryout, lots of vegetarian options. Our favorites are Szechuan shrimp, shrimp lo mein, mock anything and they make wonderful three mushroom soup. The service is very fast and always friendly. Love this place. read more

I'm not sure if it was just an off day, or whether the quality is starting to slip. I've been a long time patron of China Panda - while it's not amazing, it's usually a decent choice for Americanized Chinese food. I've been craving Chinese lately, so I stopped by today for a late lunch. My entree was nearly flavorless - the "garlic sauce" I'd ordered tasted like watered down sweet and sour sauce with some chili flakes tossed in for "heat". The majority of the dish seemed to consist of green peppers rapidly approaching past-prime freshness. The steamed white rice was either on the old side, or undercooked, as it was on the hard and chewy side. I also ordered fried vegetable dumplings, which are usually fantastic. The dumplings today were just OK, with soggy filling that squirted liquid everywhere while attempting to eat them. I'm pretty disappointed with this visit, but I'll give them another try. read more

I have ordered delivery about five or six times, everything has always come exactly in the time frame they've told me. I live in a townhouse with a unit number that's hard to read, and every other delivery I've received has had to call me to figure out exactly which house, but they always have gotten it down. The food quality is exactly what you'd expect. I have enjoyed every meal. Prices are pretty straightforward and are at a norm of what to expect. They are good with me about providing "extra this and that" as well. They've never forgotten anything, misplaced my order, or been anything but punctual. Very reliable! read more

We've been ordering delivery from China panda for almost 4 years since living down the street. They are so friendly on the phone and my order is always perfect, quality of their food is awesome, they are fast and reliable even on busy weekend nights. I have to say again, the quality of their Chinese food is better than the others. They use nice containers the portions are big. I also have to give a huge shout out to their full time delivery driver. He is literally the sweetest man. He holds my door for me and closes it for me since my hands are full. I really enjoy China Panda. You will too. read more

Wow, I am really impressed. Friendly service, great portions, fair prices, and the quality is excellent. They even had a nifty safe to go takeout system. Awesome. read more

Oh wow. Moved out of the area and thought they did not deliver at my new address but decided to call one evening because the take/delivery places in my area just does not live up to a good standard. China Panda DELIVERED to my address and they didn't fail me. Thank you !!! read more

Hands down the best Chinese food I've ever had. Everything was delicious. Even the next day warmed up it was good, I am gradually going to try everything on the menu because this place is pure gold and I can't think of enough good things to say about them! read more

90% of the time, we are overjoyed with our food from here, though recently that has fallen to about 60%, and we are puzzled as to why. Still, they are friendly, deliver quickly and have a decent selection of items. They will get a fifth star if they pull out of their slump. read more

After tonight, I would never order from them again. Took them an hour to deliver my food and it wasn't even the right food! When I called back to let them know that I wanted to get money back instead of waiting for a remake, I was told that I had to come into the restaurant to get my money back even though they made the mistake. They hung up on me when I was trying to explain to them that I wanted my money back, suffice to say, I want to the restaurant to get my money back even though it was their mistake and I will not be ordering from them ever again. One of the most HORRIBLE customer service I have ever experienced. read more

I love love love this place! I don't live close by anymore and will still sometimes make the drive to get my fix! The staff is always pleasant and food is always cooked in timely manner! I have not eaten inside but the restaurant looks very neat and clean! Food is always great! read more

Tonight, the Hot & Spicy Soup did not have a lot of ingredients or the other stuff in it. I order this every week & it is always good. Tonight it was not good. And the broth was not like it usually is, either. Very runny & thin. . read more

Delicious food. And service! Clean restaurant and friendly staff! Been here only once. Just discovered it last week!! Our food was hot and fresh! Had excellent flavor. read more

The best place for Chinese in the west end. The order is always correct and the food is always delicious. I've never been disappointed. There is nothing unusual about their menu...most Chinese places have the same offerings for around the same price. But China Panda is quality and great service you won't find at most places. It is the ONLY place I go when I want Chinese. Their Lo Mein is incredible! read more
