I've been searching for simple decent Chinese food for a while. We went here on Christmas Eve since everything else was closed. I ordered cashew chicken combo plate, husband got orange chicken combo plate, and we got kids beef broccoli combo and side of lo mein noodles and fried dumplings. Food was amazing for prices and amount per plate. I loved pork fried rice and cashew chicken was great but I could do without carrot chunks next time. I've been back few days later since my kids ate my leftovers and I wanted to enjoy it myself. Def going to go here from now on. read more

The food is poor. The service is poor. The ambiance is somewhat acceptable. I do not recommend it.

Expensive!!! Really good beef fried rice. Crab Rangoon's need more filling, egg rolls are smaller and $2 each. read more

The prices went up, sucks. The food is always great Good friendly workers, Always hot and fresh read more

Customer Service was great. Value and quality for the money. Small area to eat in restaurant which is what we always do to enjoy the food fresh and hot. read more

While we have ordered takeout from this restaurant for years and have always been very happy with the food we have noticed a decline in the food quality the past couple times we have ordered, and are wondering if the current owners are new? Yesterday's takeout order was not good at all. In particular, I had an order of fried shrimp and the shrimp were not cleaned - after biting into the first one it was full of "shrimp poop" and upon checking the other shrimp, they were all the same. I threw the order in the trash. We will have to reconsider ordering from here again - not sure at this point. read more

Food was just fine. Haven't found my favorite dish yet. Service was friendly and the food was ready on time. We've ordered a few times.

A pretty decent place. Very average on the inside, and right now (December 2021) they do not offer indoor dining, only pickup. The food was good but slow. They said my order would be ready in 15-20 minutes but it actually took almost 30. It was a bummer because we chose this place because we were in a rush and this made us late to our show after. I got the cashew chicken which was really heavy and deep-fried, I was really hoping for something lighter. Also, I think they rushed my meal and the carrots and celery were basically raw. Bottom line, if you're not in a hurry and hankering for Chinese food, this might be a good spot for you. But I'm not in a rush to go back. read more

Standard utility Chinese takeout. Its nothing to write home about, but will certainly hit the spot if you're looking a for a quick takeout staples. There are appropriately priced meal specials that hit the spot. read more

Always great. Always OnTime. Always friendly. Consummate professionals. We've been coming here for many years. For us, it's the one Chinese restaurant where everything is consistently solid. Great stuff. Very nice family owned and ran restaurant. Defiantly worth trying if you have not already. read more

No, just no. Save your money and go some place else. In fact, drive the extra 30 mins and go some place else. Food is disgusting and over priced. $15 for beef fried rice that tasted like steamed colored rice. read more

The food we ordered were not as good compared with other Chinese takeouts. Not even the fried rice. The serving was not that much either. Ample parking lots because of the location (along with other resto and coffee shops). The to-go foods were well-packed though, complete with napkins and plastic utensils. read more

We have been ordering from here for over 20 years and have loved watching the family grow up. Food is consistently good and ordering and pick up are efficient 10 minutes. Our favorite dishes are the Lake Tung Ting Shrimp with Vegetables which we share, Crab Rangoon which is very crispy and fresh, almond cookies and Egg Drop Soup. The combinations a great way to get fried rice and egg roll with your meal. We love the way the vegetables in the entrees are cooked. They have a few tables at the brightly lit restaurant and we have eaten there a few times, but we usually order carry out. read more

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant around! I have tried many but this place has the best egg rolls, Rangoon's, and entrees. I need all three to be excellent to be happy. I've moved 20 minutes away and still make the drive periodically for their food. Combination Plates are a great deal! read more

Ordered chicken fried rice. Not cooked enough and on taste. Also ordered orange beef. Over cooed and beef tuff as shoe leather

Nice local restaurant with great service and fresh ingredients. I usually get the beef and broccoli which is outstanding. The inside is very small and I would get my food to go. Ambiance needs improvement. read more

they changed their portion size and now all food comes in BPA plastic containers, has a weird taste now. Can't dine in as they have a player for their grandkids and only take out. I recommend going anywhere else! They won't last another six months read more

This is a solid, if unspectacular Chinese takeout joint that uses quality ingredients, decent portions, and is family run. I'd say all the dishes are good and what you would expect, but their lo mein is better than most. I'm not a fan of their dumplings, but that is more of an argument about thin wrapping vs. thick wrapping, of which I prefer thin. The dumplings themselves are good if u like thick. Also, big fan of their Singapore style curry noodles. read more

We love Panda! Amazing rangoons, big portions, always ready in 10 minutes and delicious.

Stopped in last night. This is a family owned storefront a few doors down from Jewel. It is very clean and has seating for 20. I was there around 6:00 on a Wednesday night. I ordered dine-in. Everything is cooked fresh to order (not prepared ahead of time and sitting on a steam table). You order at the counter, they cook it, and bring it out to you. I had General Tso's chicken. It was damn good. The broccoli was very fresh. It came with an egg-roll and pork fried rice for about $8. Fair price for a generous portion of good food. I was probably there about 30 minutes. That entire time I was the only person dining-in. But I was shocked at how much cary-out business they did! They had a constant flow of people stopping in picking-up take-out. Seemed like a lot of regulars, (repeat business is a good sign). Service was swift yet friendly. read more

Wanted to try this place out since I was in the area. I didn't know they existed until I was passing by coming from another business across the street. It is a very small place and looks more like they get more people ordering for take out. I looked through their menu online on yelp while I was in the car and went in to order. I was surprised when I was told the total amount for my orders. I wasn't expecting the price to be amounting to that total. I looked at my receipt and looked at the online menu and compared them. I guess they never changed the menu prices online, it wasn't like a $1-$2 difference but more like $5-$7 more. I guess never trust the prices people post on their online menu. I went there thinking it was a good reasonable price for the items I wanted but ended up costing me close to $100. The food was okay, I ended up throwing them away as I didn't have anyone else to eat them as I had to be out of town that very early morning. Just a piece of advice for the restaurant owner, please update your prices online. People are getting lured into your restaurant thinking they would be spending certain amount of money and end up paying way more than they wanted to spend. I could have had went somewhere else and dined in with a glass of wine with a meal for the price I ended up spending for on a take out meal. Transparency, honesty, and accurate info means a lot to me. I don't like businesses who doesn't practice those things because we all know we work hard for the money we spend and don't mind spending it if it was upfront and expected. I'll continue to support small businesses as they are the heart of the community. I'll be back but this time I'll just come in and look at the accurate menu and prices inside the restaurant. But please do remove the old menu and prices online and replace them with the accurate ones. read more

We love Panda. They are quick, clean, everything is super fresh and piping hot when you get it. They are also very accommodating with special requests and rarely make a mistake on your order. I wish they had more appetizer choices, but otherwise the food is good. Great go to take out place, always big portions and love they use big shrimp. read more

The food was really good and flavorful. You could tell they used high-quality ingredients. The service is and friendly. The ambiance was typical Chinese restaurant in a strip mall, mostly a takeout place. read more

We ordered last night - General Tsao and Cashew Chicken. Both were very, very good! Will definitely order again very soon!

Good soup, potstickers, and crab rangoon. I didn't get to try an entree, but will try again the next time I am in the area.

Panda Chinese Restaurant is an outstanding restaurant located in Grayslake. I frequently order the General Tso's combination plate for takeout. Typically the order only takes about 10 minutes to make if you order from home. The service is friendly and quick. They have a lot to offer on their menu, so if you are in the area I highly recommend! read more

I love Panda. My kids and I have been enjoying the many delicious dishes and the wonderful family that prepares and serves them for 20 years. We plan to continue the tradition! read more

1 of the better Chinese takeouts in Grayslake. Tried it the first time, and I was pleased. Mongolian beef, pork fried rice, and soup was on point. Not like your China town Chinese restaurant/take out, but it's close. read more

Very good and fresh food. The service was very good also. The only complaint is that they give you super cheap plastic forks and that makes it hard to eat the veggies and chicken. read more

The food is good. Unfortunately, they are always out of many entrees. Not to mention, because of staffing issues, they close the lobby, they open late, run out of food and the online ordering isn't working. This has happened at both locations near me. Not worth the effort! read more

I've seen how the owners have worked tirelessly to deliver the tastiest and delicious Chinese delicacies. Don't bother with the other chain Asian restaurants. This is truly an original and dedicated to feeding their customers wonderful quality food to make you return again and again. I especially love their large won-ton soup. Delicious! They've made a permanent customer out of me for past 20 years!!! Cheers! read more

Very good. Good portions. Egg rolls just so so. Had egg foo young. Different than I had before but very good. Would go back.

Food is authentic and tasty. Service is always quick. Perfect place to pick up dinner for the family.

Super expensive tho. The prices on the menu in the pictures are not accurate. Good food tho!

Was looking for a new Chinese restaurant to eat from and this one was really good. I'll be back

We have been eating here for years. We have loved the food every single time. They have the most amazing dumpling sauce. They are always so nice. read more

A great, family-owned restaurant...primarily a carry out location (very few tables), but we've supported them from the beginning!

The place was clean and the food was your average Chinese restaurant grub. I don't know if the prices are higher now (Covid thing) but I was shocked that 3 entrees, 1 fried rice and 1 side of fried dumplings was over $70. Fast food take out should not cost as much or more than a decent sit-down restaurant. read more

Very solid place for Americanized Chinese food. Menu is standard to typical carryout places. Service is quick, efficient and most importantly...accurate. Had to update review because this place is a lifesaver. Went to the bears game on christmas eve and had a bit too much to drink. Did not feel the greatest so christmas day spent at home and not visiting family. By the evening, felt much better and hungry. Family lives in Indiana and i did not feel like cooking. So i went out on a limb and called Panda and they were open! So Xmas dinner was Panda. Best Xmas dinner ever! read more

The food is good... comes out quick and has the typical menu. The Crab Ragoon's at this place are outstanding! The dinning area is a no thrills type of place and is limited seating. The primary business for this place is carry out. We've tried a good number of items on the menu and we have been satisfied with the results. read more
