Fried rice tastes like school quality lunches Orange chicken I'll admit taste pretty good. Has a very subtle crunch, like VERY SUBTLE, tastes good, has a nice chew. But I could buy one from the frozen section in Safeway and make better orange chicken thats also more cost effective The amount was surprising. He asked me for my entree, told me my options, I just said fried rice, I didnt know you could pick 2 entrees. (On the receipt, it said 1/2 fried rice + 1/2 fried rice). He gave me a lot of fried rice and when I said orange chicken, he gave me so little I had a physical reaction. I think my face tweaked a bit seeing how little orange chicken he added (I was under the impression that panda express would overflow your bowls so much that they cant even close it). Probably more worth to buy a plate, I think thats when they overflow it, but who knows, maybe its inflation again. Lots of workers, I was surprised, the moment I walked in, there were like a group of 6 all hovering next to the food section. The worker I had was very good, he was quick and my order went pretty smooth for my first time at panda express He asked me if I wanted any drinks, I said water, asked me if I wanted any sauces, theres soy sauce, hot sauce, I said hot sauce, he also asked if I wanted a to go bag, I said yes, the fortune cookie came without needing to say anything. I was surprised how comfortable the chairs were, they got pads. Also since no one provided the menu, I took some pics of the menu read more

Very disappointing experience. When we arrived, there were no customers inside and only three cars in the drive-thru, the guy doing the drive thru acknowledged us and proceeded to get drive -thru orders but didn't come back to help helped us. We waited without receiving any service and eventually had to leave. Customer service definitely needs improvement. read more

Food has no flavor like before. Noodles are too dry! The wait was also very long. Took 30 minutes to get food with only 3 people ahead. read more

Prices very adequate for quality and quantity of cuisine you're attaining. A lot of employees bumping into each other, but they got it figured out and are super friendly! Loud environment if you eat there, I suggest drive thru, movie or book at home by the (or under cozy blanket) in winter. By water (with sunscreen of course) & eating ice-cream in the summer. Enjoy! At least the staff aren't cussing and smashing head on counters like at Dinomart, the gas station by Walmart. read more

Fresh right when I got in. It was perfect, I'm happy that I came to this panda. What can you expect for a fast food chain. It scratches the itch for sure. read more

Okay I real do like Panda Express but I will now have to draw the line. I order the chow mein but please I would like to have more noodles. I got for the last time more cabbage then noodles. Please make the chow mein with more noodles!!! read more

Panda Express - Fast Food Near Me - Chico, California

We had to wait a bit for one of the items to be cooked and refilled but after we got our order the Manager, I think She was, gave us 2 spring rolls for our wait. By waiting we got really hot food too. read more

This restaurant is located in a place near which I frequently find myself, thus I come here at least once a week, and well...here's what I think. First, the employees and some customer service. The employees are for the most part friendly, they greet you upon entering, take your order and make you feel welcome, sometimes, however there are those who don't want to take your order or just want to argue with you when you ask if you could have a little more of a certain menu item. There is one woman there who is like that, and, for that reason, I don't come here when she's usually working. Now, let's talk about the food! I love the Teriyaki Chicken and Black Pepper Angus Steak. Those are what I normally get as my two entrées and then White Rice as my side. I also like to get the String Bean Chicken Breast, but almost every time I come here and order it, I have to wait 10-20 minutes, one time almost half an hour! And then I have to get up and check, because no one keeps me in the loop of its status and eventually they forget about me and I end up with my food being cold. They don't seem to be as organized at times here. Maybe look into that is my advice for them. As I mentioned above, I come here frequently and I'll probably still come here, but I better not have to wait 20-30 minutes ever again for a menu item here or I'll just go somewhere else from now on. This is supposed to be FAST food. read more

Panda Express - Teriyaki Chicken, Black Pepper Angus Steak and White Rice. What I usually order. The servings could have been a little better if you ask me. - Fast Food Near Me - Chico, California

So went to panda for ea lunch today and was not super excited with what I got as far as portions. They were very small and I literly got one of each sauce packet that I asked for. read more

The food is subpar. Chow mein was dry and hard. Sesame chicken was cold. Fried rice was the best part and that wasn't fresh it tasted like a microwaved meal. Huge disappointment. We had the meal delivered and several items weren't delivered. We will not be ordering from them again. read more

Panda Express - Dry, hard Chow Mein - Fast Food Near Me - Chico, California

Don't eat panda. There buy 2 plates get 1 half off is a joke. You have to buy 3 get 1 half off. Don't fall for it

Good food but hella small portions. And cost is high for what your given. The window person was nice and did give me the sauce I asked for usually they don't they are skimpy on the packets . And didn't offer me a sample of anything read more

This review is because I have never felt rush to order/purchase. I don't know who the lady was. I've never seen her in there before she had this weird looking makeup on. I usually get my chow mein and maybe something to drink. And, I did get my usual. But, This time I got the vegetable egg rolls deal and one whole piece of teriyaki chicken. The only thing is that the chicken to me it was stringy to me and I didn't like that. The ambiance was relaxing. read more

We went to have some dinner and the person in front i think her name is Selena was really mean and rude, she even rolled his eyes at us, it was a really bad experience, you should take care of it. read more

Overall, I give this panda Express a 3.75. It is popular so expect lines, drive through and inside. Atmosphere: 4 star. The inside looks polished and was mostly clean. There is outdoor seating and all on all, it looks pretty good. One note though, the men's room only has a toilet. I had to double che6i didn't go to the ladies room. The mens room is missing a wall urinal. Customer service: 5 stars. I received excellent attention and friendliness from employees Shong and Ka. My order was done right and fast. Value: 3 stars. The drinks are standard price. The food is filling however. I ordered the bowl and got Angus beef which was an extra $1.25. Came out to around $8. Quality: 3 stars. The Angus beef was tender and good but I didn't like the oil they used. The rice was a bit dry. I imagine they have a schedule when they put fresh food in and throw out the old. I dont know how many hours it is but the rice was not fresh. I wouldn't order it next time. The noodles (mein) was good though. read more

The strawberry blond/redhead gentleman told me to make a review as it helps them. I strongly believe that. I thought oooo maybe he heard me right when I got my condiments before pulling away. No, I requested enough sweet and sour sauce for 2 orders. There's 3 packs in the bag. 8 would have been enough for 2 cream cheese ragoons. So here I am leaving bad review and not helping. Please whoever see this please be realistic with packets if anyone on shift hasn't eaten them please do so you can see why I stated enough for each order. read more

Ordered the bowl after a long day of work came home opened it and only had 4 pieces of chicken in it. Jokes on me I guess read more

Manesa served us and she was professional and helpful with the choices. She was refilling the dishes and fulfilling our plate orders at the same time! read more

Usually pretty fast. Food quality is low. Portions are lacking for the price. Occassionally, you will hit a surprise disgusting bite of something that was at the bottom of the pan for several cycles that finally made it into your dish. Staff is usually impersonal which is fine but most recently they were needlessly rude. I'm sure if I behaved that way at my place of work they would have something to say about it. read more

Panda express in Chico is pretty clean. The staff is friendly. They will make eye contact and ask if you have been helped or if you are there to pick up an online order.They are pretty quick with online orders. Sometimes the food runs out during dinner and lunch times and they have to make a fresh batch, but it doesn't really take that long. read more

When I am in town for work, I go to this Panda Express. They are incredibly cheap on the portion size. That's why I ask for both entrees to be honey walnut shrimps, which costs extra for both entrees. You will never get what you pay for. The picture attached is an accurate representation of how little the staffs put in the plate. Also, yesterday I went through the drive thru and they gave me the wrong order. Good thing I checked my order before driving off, because I ended up needing to go inside to get my order corrected. read more

Panda Express - Fast Food Near Me - Chico, California

First time at a Panda Express. I pulled up in the drive-thru 30 minutes before closing but didn't feel like I was holding the store up by ordering. I ordered the "Bigger Plate" in which I picked Beijing Beef, Kung Pao Chicken & Honey Walnut Shrimp. I chose Chow Mein as my side and was handed my order within minutes. The woman taking my order had a pretty witty sense of humor. I appreciated that because sometimes people on the headset can be pretty mono-tone and not very exciting. As for the food the Shrimp was very good, the Beijing Beef was also something I enjoyed. The Kung Pao Chicken seemed a bitttt spicy for my liking but hey it's all in the name so I did expect it to be spicy. I enjoyed my meal and would definitely return again. read more

Panda Express - "Bigger Plate" Kung Pao Chicken, Beijing Beef, Honey Walnut Shrimp with Chow Mein - Fast Food Near Me - Chico, California

I like to chow mien I like their compound chicken pretty clean good customer service.

Garbage. They forgot a large chow mein from my order, were essentially illiterate taking my order, and gave 4 prices of chicken on my bowl with a ton of hard rice. Trashhhh. read more

Chow mein is always raw!!!!! Idk why I both to give this location another chance I feel robbed every time I take a bite and it have a play dough like consistency. I will say every time I go there's a little Asian girl with lash extensions who always gives me my food asap when I'm in the drive thru but that's the only good thing about this place, the speed. read more

Their portion control is cheap for what we pay for ... I asked for extra honey walnut shrimp and got legit 8 shrimps and charged full price. I just don't understand . read more

Service in the drive thru was fast and the order was correct. Chicken egg rolls tasted like chemicals. Yuck. Other than that it was ok. Not really any good options in town. read more

This was our last trip to this Panda. We ordered 2 plates and a bigger plate. Got home to realize one entree was missing. Called them and talked to Aisha or something)had to suffer through a 10 minute interrogation with no apology! Went back to get the missing entree (while the rest of our food got cold) the gal filled the entree container, then went to the office to get the stupid log book! Now my entree is sitting behind the counter. My guy asked her what she was doing and she said she had to "log" it. So he asked if we have to sit here and wait for that or can we get our damn food! She practically threw it at him and he asked three times if we could at least get an apology. That was a big fat No. Rude as hell!! Then... for the cherry on top of it all we got home to find that we didn't get the sauce on either of our teriyaki chickens!! We will be going to Tong Fong Low from now on! read more

Just a FYI, don't order the Bowl. The one i just got, I ordered the white rice and the Kung Pao, was 9/10ths white rice and 1 tiny scoop of Kung Pao that didn't even cover the surface of the rice. AVOID THE BOWL! read more

Love this place. The employees are fast and friendly and the food is pretty good most of the time. I really like that you can see inside the kitchen so that your able to see how clean it is. read more

The one star rating has nothing to do with the food or the business itself.. It goes to the customer service I received tonight from an employee named Syneka when I went through the drive through (at 9 pm). As a person who works in customer service myself, I don't appreciate feeling like I'm inconveniencing someone simply for receiving my food. She opened the window and stated my total with an annoyed tone and look on her face as if I'd done something wrong by being there. When she handed me my food I felt like it was practically thrown at me and she slammed the window shut immediately, so I had to wait several minutes to ask for sauce myself, and when she opened it finally she didn't say anything, looked at me with a very irritated expression and when I asked for soy sauce she grabbed a handful of about ten and sarcastically said "this enough?" while handing it to me and shut the window immediately again before I was able to even respond. I am very disappointed in the experience I had and I regret even buying my dinner there tonight at this point because all it did was ruin the good mood I was in. I love Panda Express but think some employees may need an attitude check because in no way does that experience make me want to come back anytime soon, honestly. :( read more

Chow Mein was insanely dry, asked for soy sauce and got sweet and sour, line was insanely long and the staff didnt even seem like they wanted to be there. The steak tasted old and they lied about having teriyaki sauce at the window, even though my other plate got teriyaki sauce on it. read more

The food Is good it's just the customer service that needs work. Louise in the drive through is rude. Not very friendly. I ordered teriyaki chicken and expected the sauce, which they forgot sometimes, so when she asked if I wanted sauce I said just the teriyaki. She still neglected to put it in my bag! Had to go in and ask someone else for it. read more

Place requires masks and yells at people who happen to walk in without them, despite the fact that there is no mandate and masks don't work anyway, let alone the fact that most people are vaccinated. Would be nice if the website specified as such for online orders so that people who don't want to wear a mask for nothing can stay away. They don't bring food out carside, so I had to go in without a mask, not knowing that they required them, and then got yelled at and told to put on a mask. My food was already ready and waiting, so instead of just handing it to me so I could leave, I got yelled at and told to out on a mask otherwise I could not get the food I already paid for. Saw multiple others get yelled at for not having a mask on while I was waiting in line for my food that was already done...Won't be back. Oh, and the food sucked. Ordered a two entree plate and it had 4 bites of chicken and 4 bites of what I assumed was beef, the rest was 2 pounds of chow mein and giant chunks of onion. It all tasted like salt water. The veggie rolls and cream cheese rangoons were stale as hell. I ordered all of the sauces and was only given spicy mustard. This place sucks. read more

Panda Express - Mostly veggies - Fast Food Near Me - Chico, California

Always fresh food. I've been to other Panda Express restaurants and the food is sort of stale. Not this one. Service is great as well!!!

I've been here a handful of times now and I've never had a bad experience like some Yelpers. The food is the standard fast Chinese food. The service is quick and friendly. The dining area is pretty clean. It's great they have a drive through. Most Pandas don't! If they are out of something they have no problem yelling at the cooks to make it. No big deal. The only thing that bothers me about all Panda Expresses in general is that it's so pricy for fast food. What are we paying for? Is the chicken free range? Is the beef grass fed? No HFCS? Are the employees paid excellent like In N Out? I'll research this later but for now Panda Express is a pricy fast food treat every now and then. Yum. read more
