What's really annoying about this location is that online orders are ALWAYS prioritized over the in-person line. Doesn't matter if they see a line 10 people deep, they stop the entire line to fill online orders. So many times I've seen the last of dishes I want scooped up and put into someone's online order box. They need to figure out a way to balance this. read more

Nice friendly staff. The Vegan Beyond Orange Chicken was so good. I hope they keep that menu item. read more

So I actually used to work here. It is a toxic work environment, but man, they do a good job and as a customer you couldn't ask for better. The portion sizes are huge and the service is efficient. If you want more than the routine/standard allotment of meat, just throw a silly fit and they will accommodate you, no questions asked. Good times! read more

Extremely busy during our 6 guy and girl drop in around 6:30 on a Friday but well worth the wait for an easy $7 n change filling protein heavy plate and good healthy greens to go. We know there is way too much sodium in these dishes which is not healthy at all but good to see a tasty alternative to typical even unhealthier fast food. Service was very friendly and fast, inside was accommodating and clean, great to have outdoor seating too! Great, easy to access location near 57 and 74. read more

Absolute Perfection every single time! I'm a regular here and Royce, Kyleigh and Ivana I think is her name deliver excellent food and extremely smooth and fast service! Highly recommend! The teriyaki chicken hits evertime. read more

Waste of $25. Threw it away. It looks like you are ordering for the restaurant to deliver. In reality, it is DoorDash. Had that been disclosed, I would not have ordered, as I have never had a good experience with Door Dash or Grub Hub in Champaign. Order was over 20 minutes late because Door Dash changed the address. I entered it correctly per the confirmation email from Panda Express, which also made no mention of Door Dash. I live on Brookshire E. Door Dash attempted to deliver to Brookshire W. Then called because they could not find the house. When the order arrived, the bag was mangled. All the sauce was spilled all over and it was pretty cold. This was supposed to be a plate with 2 different entrees. It's all just dumped together. I don't even know if I got 2 entrees. Total mess!!! read more

Restaurant review If you want freshly prepared Chinese food that's made in a clean restaurant than panda express is the way to go. I've been here a couple of times and over all I have not been this disappointed. Staff is friendly and they greet you as soon as you walk in through the door. My go to entrées are the orange chicken and the broccoli and beef. The food is made rather fresh and you can see the chefs cooking behind the glass. My most recent visit the orange chicken was a little off I think they put too much vinegar in the sauce. Pros: Fresh Chinese food, large portions, ample parking Cons: Still a lot of cholesterol Hidden deals: Call in for the survey with each of your receipts in order to get an additional side with your next order Health code rating: A. I watch them clean the cooking area when it got dirty http://champaign.il.gegov.com/champaign/estab.cfm?facilityID=1239 read more

Panda Express - Three entrée plate - Chinese Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

We can always count on Panda Express for takeout that we really like! We go to the one on N Prospect

Ordered online at 1:15, showed food would be ready at 1:35. At 2pm I was told it would be another 10 minutes. These idiots have no business working in fast food. I canceled my entire order and NOW I have to wait 48 FUCKING HOURS to get my money back! The employees in this place are absolutely pathetic! read more

I have eaten at this location several times a month for 3 years, today will be my last. There is a woman who works there who gives her friends huge amounts of food then rings up total for a fraction of the cost. This happens frequently. Today I waited 17 minutes for someone to wait on me the only one in there working was the cook. When I asked is anyone working here he just replied yes. I asked him can someone take my order he said nothing kept cooking. After 17 minutes of waiting for anyone to show up someone from the back came out. Sweet and fire is what I wanted no pineapple in it and three tiny pieces of chicken is all I got. Unless you know someone who works there expect poor service, poor food quality and poor amount of food. Today was the last straw. Poorly run store, always dirty inside, floors and tables are disgusting. This was 2:30 on a saturday. read more

My husband and I had the orange chicken last night. My side was the fried rice and his was the chow mein. Both of our sides were not good, the rice was really dry and his chow mein had more onions than noodles. The chicken seemed to more fat than meat. did the company change suppliers? We were so disappointed. read more

Nikita and her team went beyond the normal rules of customer service for me and my kids tonight! Long story short we ordered food for our kids through a delivery app. Food was delivered but was stolen from outside their building. Nikita and her team heard about this, remade the order asap and personally delivered the food to my kid. Thank you for taking care of my family, you went out of your way to correct a situation that was out of all of our control. I was beyond thankful for this kind gesture! read more

Not the greatest but it is fast food Chinese food. It was dry, very dry. Will not go back.

Needed a place to eat during Black Friday shopping. Didn't want to eat in the mall food court, so we made our way over to Panda Express since we had to do more shopping on Prospect. There was no line when we got there. My mom was able to try something new. And our dish was served up quickly. My mom and I shared a platter. The only "hiccup" was that they put my water cup inside my mom's soda cup and I didn't notice. So I just filled the cup and had to go back for a water cup. lol. It seems the place really cares about cleanliness - one of the young workers was cleaning while we were there. Food was good and plenty for the two of us. read more

The food is usually very good and the portions are ample. It is the way it operates that really turns me off. EVERY time we go there, they are out of the most basic food. at the time we come in(usually at about 6pm). Tonight it was vegetables and teriyaki chicken . It is always something- almost always shrimp, Causes us to wait around 5-10 minutes waiting for the food. Running out of vegetables? The employees are fine. This is a management issue read more

If you want freshly prepared Chinese food that's made in a clean restaurant then this is the place to go.The food is made fresh all day and you can see the chefs cooking behind the glass. I've never been disappointed. Staff is friendly and they greet you when you walk in the door. The restaurant is clean and in good condition. Makes me feel good about eating inside since it is clean and has a modern look to it. They also have outside seating. read more

A new favorite! Wanting more veggies in my diet, this place is good, fresh - from their veggie portions of kale, cabbage and broccoli; and the fried rice - to the good choices of meats. The best to me are the kung pao chicken - or the more caloric/sugar teriyaki chicken - but also try the Shanghai angus steak- too bad it has mushrooms but most of you may like that. The veggie spring rolls are tasty - they have a light fried crust and good veggies - the typical cabbage carrots onion celery and Chinese noodles. Tastes so good! read more

5 pm on a Sunday- food was disgusting. Cold and dry lo mein and grit on my chicken. Also doesn't help that a woman who must have been a manager or a veteran there was rude. No wonder this place barely had anyone there. My friends and I must have come at a bad time because our food looked NOTHING like what's in everyone's pictures. Hopefully your experience was better than ours! :) read more

Never have had a bad experience here. Good customer service, foods fresh and hot. Great to sit outside on a nice day to enjoy lunch/dinner, like today :) read more

Fresh food on a Saturday night at 8:30pm. Clean tables in the lobby too! Busy but quick service.

The food was ok as expected from Panda Express. Though I felt the quantity here was less compared to the other branches. The orange chicken and the shrimp dish are recommended. Lastly it's ok to eat here for having an economical and ok food. read more

This Panda Express is almost always busy, and I can see why. The food here is so good. My family comes here all the time. I know the food is always fresh because it tastes so good! I would totally suggest the bowl with fried rice and string bean chicken breast!! They have good sized proportions. Highly recommend! read more

Hope you like your food being ice cold after waiting half an hour for an egg roll because apparently that how long it take to cook 1 single roll read more

The employees were very polite, offered samples & took our ordered & served us quickly. The only time we waited was by choice waiting on some fresh beging beef to be cooked. read more

Solid, delivers everytime. I recommend the orange chicken. Its great while you get your holiday shopping done to visit Asia.

Food is hit or miss,,sometimes it s fresh and sometimes its cold and old. I guess it's ok. Skip this if you have a chance to go to a regular Chinese joint. read more

Panda is a family favorite. It is always hot and fresh and super delicious. Can't beat the orange chicken. The noodles are one of our favorites. Have never had anything I didn't like from here. The staff is friendly and helpful. Love this place. read more

I don't usually write reviews but we go here all the time so I thought it was about time.. We always get good food. My husband doesn't really like Chinese food but he loves the Orange Chicken and the Honey Walnut Shrimp. Be sure to ask for the fortune cookies as sometimes they have forgotten but they sure made up for that the next time! read more

Big portions and friendly staff (even when it was very busy). Great place!

Probably one of the best fast food places above Mc Donalds. Have to be careful as I do have a minor allergy to sesame, so I have to ask which things I can have before I purchase a meal. read more

I love this place, the food is always great and the customer service is fast and professional.

Okay just to start, this is a Panda express. It's definitely not the beeeest Chinese food place out there but I can appreciate the food. It is probably the cleanest Chinese fast food I can eat. I have no idea what it is, but I can consistently eat here and not get sick. I don't know if there is MSG or isn't or what but it's just a personal experience and YMMV. Shout out to the Lo Mein for being al dente like I like em. Overall, everything on the menu isn't too die for but definitely good enough for a quick bite. The actual restaurant is clean and in good running condition. Makes me feel good about eating inside since it is clean and has a modern look to it. It's definitely not the best place in Champaign but it is a keeper. Keep on keeping on Panda express read more

Solid fast food choice+, hit or miss service, dirty tables, not enough high chairs.

This Panda is pretty good fast casual. The food's been great every time I've stopped in, and while it's nothing to really impress, it's great if you want to get something quickly. read more

Its not perfect.. Sometimes the noodles are over done. But for fast food, it is one of the best ones in town. If Harry is there running it be sure and say HI, and tell them Fred sent you in ! read more

It was amazing to see 5 employees run efficiently with a dinner rush providing fresh hot food

The food was fresh, and Great tasting!! As always the service was Friendly and Fast. The crew at Panda are very helpful, and courteous. I have been to some Restaurants . Where is was obvious the food had been sitting out , and was over cooked. The food at Panda, was freshly cooked, and tasted Great. read more

Love this place!! Always pleasant staff and quick service. Although I wish they would bring back the pot stickers.

Food poisoning. Ordered lunch at 12:00 and within two hours of eating, (~1:30) I had awful stomach pains, diarrhea, and vomited what I ate. At one point I was in so much pain I was contemplating going to hospital. OMG I felt like I was dying! Was walking in circles trying to feel better. I called to report it to the restaurant, and the manager told me it was not food poisoning, and I would have to wait until tomorrow to call if I felt badly. He proceeds to tell me no one else has called and food poisoning doesn't happen that quick and it could be something else I ate. (FYI this was the only thing I have eaten today.) Never once did he ask me what I ordered or ate, offer me any sympathy of my current condition, or ask how they could make it right. No facts were gathered. He was too busy making excuses and denying it. F#@! Panda Express. NEVER AGAIN! read more

If I would've written this a year ago, it would've gotten 5 stars however the quality of their food seems to have gone down drastically. As a family, we'd eat there once or sometimes twice a week. But after our last few visits, we won't be going back for a while. Also, there is limited seating for larger groups. read more
