Grand Panda - Entrance - Chinese Near Me - Newhall, California

Good service, nice variety of dishes and very flavorful. Cozy small mom and pop feel, not a bad choice for Chinese food in this valley

The Panda has its own parking lot. We came here n a Friday night around 6 pm no problem getting a table. We order Hot Sour Soup for two Mushi Chicken and a chicken with eggplant. The hot sour needed both vinegar and spice in other words bland. The soup was hot. We ordered multiple soups at our table which all arrived at different times. The Mushi had a hard flavorless pancake and came pre rolled but we're not packed. The chicken with eggplant had a nice flavor to it. Service was good the wait staff is stretched thin. They do have good prices on their lunch menu. You can find better food elsewhere. read more

In our search to find good places to grab lunch we rediscovered Grand Panda. It had been several years since we were last there. The place had been remodeled and the décor looked pretty good. What is important was the prices were still ok considering the recent reound og inflation and the serving sizes were good . I really enjoyed the Kung Pao Three Ingredient ($13.25) It had more than a few juicy shrimp with a compliment of chicken and pork. It also had a good level of spice and if you want more heat you simply break open some the hot peppers and sprinkle the seeds to your taste. It was a good version of the meal and the eggroll was crunchy and not greasy. My wife had Mu Shi Pork ($11.55), also a decent sized portion for the cost and tasty. The service was friendly and warm, especially one lady who was so bubbly and upbeat it was impossible not to smile and feel the positive vibes. Hopefully you run into her on a good day if you visit. We will swing by again to try a few more things on the lunch menu. read more

We typically do take-out so we ate in the restaurant this time. I like the decor & vibes. Our server was friendly & attentive. We each ordered lunch specials which seem to be a good deal as it includes a drink, soup, side salad, & an egg roll. I'm a sucker for the fried "chips" with sweet dipping sauce they provide upon being seated. I ordered the Curry Chicken Lunch special with fried rice. I liked it & would order it again. We also got the Paper Wrapped Chicken because we always do. We will be back for both take-out & dine-in. read more

Grand Panda - 14. Curry Chicken Lunch Paper Wrapped Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Newhall, California

This grand panda SPECIFICALLY in Newhall is the best Chinese food in SCV! The owners are so welcoming and nice, whether that's walk-in service or placing an order over the phone. Quality food, and gives a family atmosphere. I'd rather support a family business than any other business. Huge fan of the hot and sour soup! Please try it out! read more

The worst Chinese food I have had in a long time. I ordered through Postmates. TASTELESS. No seasoning at all. Beef is so chewy and mystery looking. Like what is it really? The portions were huge but they went right in the trash. I had horrible indigestion also. Had to be bacteria related. Don't waste your money. This food is complete trash. read more

Recently, I purchased five orders of house fried rice without eggs and the folks got my orders wrong. I make the same every time but less in quantity. Unfortunately, It wasn't until I got to the destination in Torrance when I realized the orders were wrong and had eggs in them. I called back and lady on phone said bring back the orders. I was explained and asked that I freeze them and bring back next day. Her explanation was that g the hey could thaw and used the next day. I asked not to be charged the full price because I said it over and over "no eggs". I even asked again twice at the counter. This restaurant is not very honest, and cheat customers whenever it get the chance. The lady at the speak a very little English. I do not recommend this restaurant because when there is an issues they runaway and do not own up there mistakes. read more

Great food. Great service. I love the cotton candy machine, it's what my kids look forward to.

I was surprised to see the reviews, so I decided to give my support. I love this restaurant, they have been our prime spot for Chinese since we've resided in Santa Clarita. Their dishes are consistent in flavor and I always have enough left over to take home and enjoy the next day. Service is great, the restaurant is beautiful. The vibe makes for a great experience when celebrating any occasion. read more

I love small family owned places like this. It was 2 hours before closing and the place was pretty busy. Upon walking it, we instantly felt welcomed and greeted with a smile. The servings are family sized and perfect for sharing. We ordered a dinner combination for two people and we're completely stuffed! The Szechuan Shrimp was really good. Very well cooked with a lot of flavor. The Kung Pao Three ingredients was very flavorful and have a generous portion. We didn't eat the chili peppers so it was relatively mild without them. We really loved the fried rice, it wasn't dry and it had great flavor. If you are ever in the area, give them a try. I loved the fact that all of the food you can tell that it's freshly made to order. I will definitely be coming back to try more new plates. read more

OMG! Finally I have found somewhere in the SCV with mu-shi (shu)!!!!!!!!!! I've been dying for some for the last 3.5 years since I moved up here. My good friend recommended Grand Panda and I'm so glad she did. We ordered via DoorDash and my food arrived quickly, they listened to my special instructions, and the food was piping hot. I'm so incredibly impressed that I'll be bragging about this place for a long time. I can't wait to go in-person and enjoy their amazing food. The to-go portion was enough for an army. I'll be ordering again and again and I cannot wait to go there myself. Thank you so much for exceeding my expectations and quenching my taste for mu-shu! YUM!!!!!! read more

Had a small won ton soup today. Was unpleasantly surprised. Just not appetizing. The won ton was under cooked and the broth lacked for any rich chicken broth flavor. Had the soup here previously, and was decent quality. Hope this was just a bad draw. Service was otherwise friendly and attentive. Atmosphere comfy. Portion size was commensurate with price. read more

Grand Panda - Small Won Ton soup - Chinese Near Me - Newhall, California

Delicious traditional Chinese food at a good price. The lunch specials are well priced for the large amount of food that you're served. Ambiance is calm and follows the theme of a traditional sit down Chinese restaurant. Service was also really attentive and refills and service were quick. I would highly recommend. read more

Grand Panda - 5. Beef Chop Suey Lunch - Chinese Near Me - Newhall, California

Let's just say, I'd never go back! Finding something in my food that would have sent me to the hospital is unacceptable. I made no scene and kept it cordial with the staff and owner - at least I think she was the owner. Told her to not even bother giving me the check and she agreed. I'll leave it at that. read more

Been coming here since they opened. The staff watched my kids grow up. Although many have moved on since COVID, we continue to frequent Grand Panda. We've probably ordered everything on the specialties menu. Portions are large and the food is all good. Service is fantastic. They do a heck of a lot of "To Go" business. Food is prepared and packaged efficiently and served hot. read more

Customer service was not the best. Had to wait More than 40 minutes for our food. And it wasn't busy at all. They didn't apologize for the wait.. food had little flavor. I won't be returning. I do not recommend coming here. read more

Good, decent Chinese food. I brought my grandma and brother here. We waited a reallllly long time to get service. Even to start with our drink order. (Just water... lol). It was a Saturday evening and the restaurant was probably half-full. Not sure what the deal was but everything took hella long. To be seated, to get water, to order, to get the check... PLUS, my grandmother spoke Chinese to our server so it wasn't like they outed us because we even made a connection. Generally if you speak their dialect, they vibe a bit more... If you know, you know... maybe we'll return but we'll prob try to the location first. read more

I have never been here, and hearing about this location being worse than the one on seco and copper hill, I came here expecting it to be less than great. I will have to say I had a good experience. The food portions are big, food was good and came promptly. The staff here is also very friendly and the prices are better than I realized they would be. I need to come back here again, love the ambiance as well. read more

We have been loyal customers for 30 years. The food is always delicious and the service is so friendly. Thank you to all of the GP family!

This Grand Panda is an institution. I am so happy they made it through the pandemic. I have been going here since the early 90s. The staff is always smiling and friendly. The food is tasty and is always served warm and fresh. They serve huge portions so keep that in mind. This restaurant has remained consistent even through the pandemic. I can't say the same for some other restaurants. When I want Chinese, whether eating in, take out, or delivery this is my go to and am never disappointed. read more

Good place. Enjoyed everything we had. Their hot tea was great. Got general Tso and it was great (comes with steamed rice) Also had their sizzling rice soup which was AMAZING. Very flavorful. Enjoyed it the most. read more

Grand Panda - Chinese Near Me - Newhall, California

I arrive at the establishment at 2:50 and was told by the waitress I could not order the lunch special which runs until 3 o'clock. Strike #1. At the conclusion of my meal, I asked if I could have a to go cup for my hot tea and she told me no "because I might burn myself". Strike #2 After paying my bill I went to my car to get more cash to leave a tip. The waitress assumed that I did not leave a tip and literally followed me to my car yelling at me asking why I did not leave a tip. Needless to say, I will not be returning. F'ing unreal! Strike #3 read more

Food is pretty good, although a little pricey. Service was very friendly and atmosphere seems to be nice as well although we're new to the area and have not dinned in. read more

Really great food. Pretty authentic too! Will go there again when in the area. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend their hot & sour soup! It's a must! We are faithful customers because of this soup. For entrees we usually always order the Mongolian beef plate which also is a hit! We always order take out and food is prepared very fast which is a plus. The reason I give it 4 stars & not 5 is because of price and personally I did not like their orange peel chicken. Was not the orange chicken I expected/ am used to. read more

Never had bad food or service....everything is fresh. Veggies are crisp and flavorful. All the staff are always friendly, and they take special requests ( my kids ). Been coming here since late 80s & even though I live nowhere close, when I visit the area, I try to have a meal at Grand Panda read more

We have been dining in at the Grand Panda for many years. This is our "Go To" Chinese Restaurant! THE GRAND PANDA on Lyons Ave, in my opinion is The BEST Chinese restaurant in the SCV. "Flavor Town!" The staff provides excellent service, the restaurant is clean, and the food is delicious and full of flavor. Fresh, Zesty and Delectable. Money well spent. This visit we ordered Chicken Lettuce Wraps, Sweet and Pungent Shrimp, Szechuan Chicken and Fried Rice. The only thing amiss, why no veggies or egg in the fried rice? It's hard to find excellent service and fine quality ingredients at a modest price. I hope you'll love The Grand Panda and enjoy the experience! read more

Walked into a nearly empty restaurant at lunch time . The air conditioner was barely squeaking on. I did ask if it was even on considering the outside temp was 105. Soup: hubs loved the hot & sour. It was pleasantly filled with healthy bite sizes of vegetables. The egg flower soup was extremely googy thick and salty. Shrimp in lobster sauce: huge shrimp but overly salty sauce. All of the "salads" on our plates were of a bit of shaved cabbage drowned in rice vinegar. The fried rice was just rice in soy sauce that looked burnt and lacked flavor. The mushi pork was almost as salty as everything else. The pancake was old and needed a knive to cut through it There was just nothing special to validate the prices. read more

Better than average Chinese food, lots of menu options, competitively priced and very friendly staff. The décor is impressively custom and expensive-looking, if a bit 80s, but that's part of the charm. This is one of my two go-to Chinese places despite it being a bit of a drive. read more

So good and hit the spot. War won ton soup with the good fat crispy noodles and a bao bao tray for two with a pot of hot tea. No room for the mu shu pork we planned on getting read more

I am very annoyed with this restaurant because I ordered 150 dollars of food by phone and when I came to pick it up there was a man arguing with the person who charges because she only put a couple of packets of soy sauce and two packets of hot sauce. When it was my turn to pick up the food, he told me that everything was inside and he didn't want me to check my order, I ignored her and she hadn't put utensils or soy sauce or hot sauce, I told her to give me what was necessary for 5 people because my order It was 150 dollars and she only wanted to give me three small packages of soy sauce and two packages of hot sauce. I also got angry and told her that if I had ordered food for 5 people she should give me what is necessary for the same number of people, she did not want to give me more and they asked me for extra money to give me more hot sauce and I told her I would not order from that restaurant again. They are really stingy but they want you to leave them a tip. read more

Grand Panda - 150 dollars order and the restaurant only gave this hot sauce and when I asked for more they did not want to give me - Chinese Near Me - Newhall, California

Everything tastes the same...regardless of what you order. It's a great restaurant but we will probably go elsewhere

I love this restaurant and is my preferred go-to when craving Chinese. The service is great, ambiance is peaceful, and portions are generous. My favorite items are their pepper salt pork chop, walnut shrimp and for fun crispy noodles. read more

One of my favorite spots in town! My family and I are so picky when it comes to Chinese food and this is the best! Great portions, the sauces and flavors are amazing, the prices are great too! If you're looking for something new to try, I HIGHLY recommend the paper wrapped chicken and fried wontons. YUM! The best part of Grand Panda is the staff. Whether we order dine in or take out, the staff always is so friendly and overall amazing! We love you Grand Panda! read more

Great food as always. This place is extremely consistent and FAST. I ordered two entrées and some stuffed wontons and I couldn't believe how heavy the bag was. Can easily get four servings per entrée. They don't skimp on the portions. Always kind and friendly. Been coming here over 20 years + and will continue. Try it for your self and see. Great Chinese and heavy portions. read more

This place has gone down hill it used to be my favorite place. I had a poor experience with the food and the employees. The owner acted like he cared and asked me to email him privately which I did I never heard back. Too bad this use to be a great place. read more
