On the west side and hubby requested Panda Express. It's not glamorous, but the food is made fresh in front of you with fresh ingredients. We always get our food to go and have never eaten in, but it stays busy here. Ambiance is typical fast food dining room. It could use wiped down and swept. Anyhoo, the food is hot and good. I got super greens, rice and teriyaki chicken with a side of spring rolls. Delicious! read more

Panda Express on Glenway in western Hills gave me slices of pineapple for a side (I ordered sweet fire chicken, I spoke with the manager she said whatever is in the spoon is what you get. You may get chicken. read more

Clean restaurant, friendly staff that was the first thing that came into my mind when entering the restaurant. I can honestly not relate to some of the experiences other reviewers had since my experience was pretty epic. 4 stars well deserved. The staff behind the counter were extremely nice and explained the different dishes and answered my questions with a smile. I ordered a bowl of King Pao since I love spicy food. Yum! read more

Panda Express - Chow Mein noodles with Black pepper sirloin steak. - Chinese Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

No, very unworthy of two and a half stars. Don't let fool you. It's the guest. The patrons. They don't deserve that rating I to here all the time. This is about the food and the experience. People that don't know how food service works are giving low ratings. And they can bug off. It's busy, busy here because of the Planet fitness that is adjacent. They do what the can considering the location and popularity. Stop giving Panda bad reviews. They're busy and they're tying. The food is delicious every time. It's not their fault that's they're busy. There's reason for that. read more

It was absolutely gross and shocking. I ordered two orders at the drive-through.. I get home 20 minutes husband and I are woofing is so .. noted a little piece of straw wrapping. We disregarded it because we were hungry and panda express is so great.. and we both scooped up the next two or three bites.... It was full of garbage.! Completely shocked. We contacted the local store &corp office. And received no response. Absolutely disgusting/ vile. Additionally, how and pathetic that they could not return any of our phone calls emails or texts And so unfortunately, we have told the world that this location is disgusting! read more

the girl named "lexie" i don't know if that is her actual name served our food fast but had an arrogant and displeasant face while serving our food. its the type of face saying "what do you want, here, now get out of my face". i wasn't offended by the attitude, not at all. just found it funny like come on i only came for my food not you. and fix your face! read more

picked up pandas last night i got something different thank god, panda gave my boyfriend food poisoning. never going back

I love Panda Express. Normally I would 5 star everyday. I tried finding a corporate number. Who ever sees this, please have them check there utensils. This looks like a piece of the metal scrubber. Might be time to replace it. Was in the orange chicken and luckily that was all I found. Anyway food is always great, except this little added exception to my food. read more

Panda Express. You're probably not here by choice. Some cruel twist of fate has decided that you should go to this corporate perversion of a Chinese restaurant instead of the local Mom & Pop hole in the wall. The fates are cruel, but you're here now. Avoid the beef, but the chicken is passable. Side dishes are actually pretty good. Service is very slow as soon as it gets busy, but an absolute breeze when it's not. If I was to give it a grade. It's the C-student of food. It passes, technically, but do not anticipate being impressed in any way. read more

Line management is terrible they served me and my friend before I guy that was waiting in front of us they get backed up so easily and I just don't think they know how a line works enter at your own risk read more

Good food but the music is WAY TOO LOUD. I had to stand outside while waiting for my order to be prepared. You are alienating your customers! read more

Always come in clutch with fresh hot food. My husbands go to whenever we order out. Love how fresh and quick they are.

I have not been here for years. I wanted it so I ordered it online. Online ordering was easy and fast. When I got to the store for pick up minutes before my time. I was greeted with a smile and handed my food. Food was hot and tasted amazing. Portions were good. Will be back. Thanks for the great service and tasty food. read more

I arrived at 2:30 and the food was hot and fresh. The lady that waited on me was very friendly and helpful. I would even say she gave me the best costumer services I've had in the area in a long time. I will definitely be back. read more

Panda Express - Kung pao chicken and orange chicken. Hot, fresh and yummy! - Chinese Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Good as usual but this time they serve our second entree in cups because they had to prepare more. When we got home and open the cups we realized that we didn't get the same amount of food that we usually get if the food was placed in our take out containers. My more little cups for me. I want all my food in my take out container. Trick no good! I wish I would have taken a pic! read more

Cant really complain i suppose its better than your average greasy Chinese restaurant. I got the sweet and sour chicken which was pretty good. The white rice was really hard, should have been more fluffy. They also let you taste all of the different meats before committing to one or 2. overall not super expensive either! read more

This is a chain fast food chinese place with the food prepared and placed on steam tables. The person behind the counter gets you a tray and loads up on the stuff that you ask for as you go down the line. Several menu choices greet you including Beijing Beef, and Orange Chicken, which I tried on this trip. The beef was quick fried and doused in a pretty sweet sauce (with a tiny bit of heat) and the chicken was very sweet with a somewhat orangey sauce. I had fairly bland fried rice and sweet fruit tea, but there are also Pepsi fountain drinks. The space is quite pleasant with booths and tables and large open windows. There were plenty of people there both eating in and getting takeout. This is not gourmet and not really authentic at all, but most Chinese food in this country has been adapted to suit American tastes, and this holds true here. I liked the atmosphere and the food enough to come back again when I needed a quick bite to eat for not much money. read more

Panda Express - Food line at Panda Express - Chinese Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Waited in line for 40 mins only to get the wrong order. Food is typically cold/dry every time we go. I love you Panda Express but I certainly wouldn't recommend this location. read more

I ordered food that came to a total of $28+ the food looked as though it had been prepared the day before or early that morning (I ordered in the evening at about 7/8). The chow mein was DISGUSTING. It tasted as though it had no seasoning, it was DRY and stiff. I will NEVER ORDER FROM THIS BUSINESS AGAIN. read more

Eat here only if you like small servings. Got about 4 pieces of SweetFire Chicken in my bowl. Left hungry. Quality is good, but this location skimps on the serving size. read more

I should have reviewed before going. How do they stay in business. The plate came out in shifts and every thing was cold cold cold. Pick other Asian food and run far away from this place. They are relying on their name. read more

My wife and I come here usually once a week, and it's been inconsistent. Seems to be a timing issue, as the menu options are usually either fresh or not so much, or not in stock or plenty in stock. The customer service is good more often than not, but I do feel a bit "herded" when I order sometimes depending on who the staff is for that day as the layout design is similar to a Chipotle joint and some workers are clearly better than others. The restaurant itself has a nice Asian-inspired interior and the booths are comfy. Other than the consistency with the food, it's a nice place. Pricing is a bit more expensive than Gold Star Chili up the way, but it's understandable when the food is fresh and you do get a lot for your money. Quiet atmosphere, nice bathrooms too. Drink machine is solid. I personally like the Black Pepper Chicken, egg rolls and Broccoli Beef. Occasionally I'll splurge on the Shanghai Angus Steak, but it's a bit too spicy for me. My wife likes the Cheese Rangoons and Mushroom Chicken. read more

We intended to go to a nearby Thai restaurant but they were closed on Monday so we decided to give Panda Express an opportunity again. I must admit that they've upped their game since my last review. The kitchen was busy and all of the food looked relatively fresh. I had the sweet fire chicken and the broccoli beef. Thanks for upping your game with fast and fresh options! read more

So this was my first time having Panda Express in Cincinnati. The first time I ever tried it was in Indianapolis a couple years ago. With that being said, was excited because I loved it when I first tried it. When I arrived I had an order for myself and two others. They barely had any food out and had to cook everything. My wait was at l east 30 minutes, there were at least 5 different people who came in after me and left before me. Even with all that most of the staff was still friendly, and even gave me a drink and an egg roll. But seriously this place really need to step it up. Hire some real help or something because this is ridiculous. read more

Great food, great service! I had the orange chicken, honey walnut shrimp, fried rice, and a spring roll. The cuisine was pleasing and the staff was welcoming and helpful. A great place for anyone wanting delicious Chinese food without high prices! read more

Quality 6/10 Value 7/10 This place is ok, if your lookin for quickly made chinese food thats prettty decent. If you want fresh prepared food, i recommend right across the street at Lins Pad Thai. Lins Pad Thai is the way to go, and its only across the street, they have chinese and thai entrees. What i like the most about Lins Pad Thai is the fact that they food is both high quality and high quantity. read more

Mall food court style basically. Our food had been sitting out a while and was pretty inedible. Will not be returning

Every time that I either eat in or carry out, the staff is always very helpful. They let me sample any dish before I purchase and always help direct me in which way to order to get the beat for my buck. If the wait is too long due to them having to cook more of an item they will give me an egg roll or drink to make up for it. They will cook items fresh as needed. read more

I've been to this Panda Express many times over the last several years since they opened. They used to be much better. The last few times I have visited, they were out of many of the dishes. Tonight the honey walnut chicken was not hot at all and they were completely out of the teriyaki sauce. They said they would have more sauce tomorrow. Against my better judgement, I went ahead and purchased a two entree meal. They gave me an extra large portion of the fried rice, but very small portions of the shrimp and chicken. Without the teriyaki sauce, the meal was bland and tasteless. I don't think I will be craving Panda again for quite some time. Sad to see this place go downhill. The Westside needs a good Chinese restaurant. Also, they failed to give me a receipt, so I couldn't even call the hotline and give feedback. read more

First off, I want to make sure I have the right place. After looking this place up on the map on the Yelp app it was not quite where the map said, this was in a shopping center a little ways East of where the map had it, but there were no other ones that I saw down that way. But anyways... Terrible service. After finally making it to a panda express since there isn't one in Dayton I was so excited for some orange chicken! My wife and I came here after a day at the zoo so we were pretty hungry. We got there and my wife began first and started going through the line getting her food. I went right behind her, got some chow mein, then some Beijing Beef. The woman behind the counter finished up my wife's box and as she grabbed my box the other woman behind the counter, who was helping the man behind me in line, went around and put the last of the orange chicken in his box... So now, my wife's food is done and I'm forced to wait because the person who got there after me got the last of the food I wanted... I informed the woman, Kelsey, that I was in line first and she simply said "Oh, I didn't know you wanted that." Really? No sorry? No nothing? Forget it. We paid for my wife's food and left, way to kill my appetite. Maybe I'm overreacting, but there's an order and a line for a reason. That reason. No I do not want to wait another 10 minutes while you cook food while my wife's food gets cold. read more

Excellent service! I have food allergies and the Manager made me a plate of food that I can eat without fear of side effects. The food was delicious and healthy. I will definitely be back. read more

I went here just before they closed and they were very gracious and let us stay and eat. This is a fast food type place and it was actually very good. I had the orange chicken and fried rice. The portion size was good and the taste was great. All-in-all I really liked it and would recommend it to anyone that wants to get some quick and cheap food. read more

This place gets one star for their crappy service.Manager never speaks to you he just stares at you.

I was totally disappointed. The cream cheese rabgoon and the egg roll were both overcooked and fairly tasteless. The chow main was without any flavor, tough to chew, completely dry and lacking any sauce or broth to make it edible. The Shanghai Angus Steak entree was an incredibly small serving, four small pieces of steak and a few green beans, but although reasonably tender, it was without a robust taste. Price was fairly reasonable, but completely outrageous for the quality and quantity delivered. read more

Place has disgusting food and anytime you want something they never have it or in the process of cooking it... Surprised this place is still in business! read more

Horrid. It manages to combine the worst aspects of McDonald's (premade food without character) and Chipotle (the cafeteria style line). This particular location is especially loathesome because it put the best Chinese restaurant on the west side of Cincinnati out of business. If you absolutely must have your Chinese food 60 seconds faster and you're willing to sacrifice freshness, flavor and authenticity to get it, then this is your place. read more

AWFUL! Unfortunately you can't give no stars. Ordered it as take out. Had Spring Rolls (burnt), Egg Roll (looked like and tasted like a dog turd), Chop Suey (Chop Ewwww-y), Fried rice (rubber eggs with peas and carrots), Orange chicken with bacon (I love bacon but that was just plane rancid and dry like the desert, even with all the pasty goo they call sauce), Sweet fire chicken (ranked highest on our tastings at zero) and Walnut Shrimp (can not even describe the flavor since I spit it out before I had to barf it up!). I would avoid this place at all costs. It's the first and last time we try Panda Express. Hopefully they fade away soon. FAIL! read more

I was exited to try it out, but left with anger and hunger. There were only one person serving the line and doing the cashier. All other employees won't help just doing their own stuff. Finally a guy came out trying to help, was so rude trying to make it was my fault waiting on the food, so I left the store with no food. read more

I would like to comment on the EXCELLENT customer service an professionalism of Alex, Alexis and Ciariah. We have been to many Panda Expresses, but the way they handled the order process, the plating and the checkout was the best we ever had. The orders were correct and they gave proper amounts...not too much, not too little. We felt we received a good value for our money. Alex and Alexis worked well as a team and made us feel at home Ciariah's smile and positive attitude made us happy too. These are great representatives and you do not find people like this every day at Panda. I want to make sure they are complimented. read more
