Stopped by just before 5 pm on a Sunday. There was a line but it moved quickly as they were very well staffed. Food is also fresh because of the busyness. Ordered a plate with fried rice and double orange chicken. $13 with tax. Portions were generous, more than some non-airport locations. Fried rice was missing any vegetables, was just rice and egg. Orange chicken was fresh, crispy, and sauced well. read more

I got the bigger 3 meat combo plate for $15 plus an eggroll for an additional $2 Hands down the worst eggroll I've ever had in my life. The fried rice was terrible, very dry. Of the meats the least offensive was the kung pao chicken, which had zucchini in it. The Beijing beef and orange beef were both way too sweet. The line was very long at dinner time (6pm) but the staff worked efficiently and were all very friendly I don't think I'll ever eat Panda Express ever again in my life. May this review serve as a reminder to me read more

Delicious fresh orange chicken hit the spot after a long day of Denver delays from the glorious weather

Airport food, limited choices and you're a captive consumer once you pass security. Even fast food is twice as expensive inside the airport. I'm not a big fan of fast food but Panda seemed to be my best bet. There was a line and they were moving through the food fairly quickly; so it was being refreshed and restocked with fresh product often. Even though there was a line it moved quickly and the staff worked in a synchronized, conveyor belt fashion. The food was as expected and as it has been at the many other Pandas before. read more

Panda Express - Fast Food Near Me - Denver, Colorado

You will find the only Panda Express in the airport located at Gate A (first stop after the TSA terminal). The line was very long, but it delivered on that classic Panda taste. I had the spicy orange chicken and the kung pao chicken. Both were cooked excellently and gave me the heaty kick that I craved. Service runs smooth for an airport location, tons of employees working. This place absolutely kills Big Bowl and City Wok ( and probably a few others) in pricing. I recommend stopping by for a meal if you have time to spare. read more

We all know what panda looks and tastes like. Because the airport traffic the dishes are slightly fresher. Be prepared to wait at time. Not sure if I am a fan of the new hot orange chicken. Portions are generous and prices are reasonable considering the airport premium. Wish they had more fortune cookies... they always happen to be sold out when I swing by. read more

This is a very good Panda Express location. The food met my expectations, and the staff were very courteous and accommodating. read more

Although the line was long, the food was just terrible. How can you overcook the orange chicken? The beef and broccoli was overly salty! Don't let the late night opening fool you. Great marketing tactic! read more

This is the one in the Terminal A middle area, it was busy and their prices were ok, similar to what I pay in NJ. They didn't have mushroom chicken (sign, but nothing cooked), and if trying to avoid nuts and fried food, there wasn't much else (kung pao and walnut shrimp, the fried orange chicken, chicken w/ honey sauce, and spicy beef). Orange chicken had too much soy sauce making it taste weird and wasn't crispy like it should be. Beef broccoli was ok, though. I've had better! Also, no panda reward points here. read more

Panda Express - Terminal A location - Fast Food Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I like Panda Express at airports because they don't charge exorbitant prices, and service is fairly quick. Today I ordered on the Denver Airport app, and one of the selections offered was Beyond Chicken, the plant-based option. There is an upcharge for the Beyond Chicken, which I am happy to pay. I ordered a bowl and received an order confirmation. When I went to pick up my order one of the employees told me "We don't have Beyond Chicken at this location so we'll give you regular chicken." I said I didn't eat chicken, which is why I ordered the plant-based Beyond. So she said she would give me vegetables. The vegetables were fine but I was really looking for a meal with protein. They need to update the Denver Airport app to reflect the correct menu items. I would have ordered from another restaurant had I known they didn't have Beyond Chicken here. read more

I love Panda Express. Their food quality is very consistent across all restaurants all over the country....yes, there have been 1-2 that are not great, but this particular one at the Denver airport was really good. When I got to the restaurant around 10am there was only one person in front of me and I was able to order quickly. Unfortunately they did not have the teriyaki chicken dish, which is my favorite, so I had to settle for other dishes. I got half and half (fried rice and noodles) to give my mouth a nice sensory experience....yes, at any Panda Express, you can always opt to get 1/2 and 1/2 of any of the starches as well as the steamed vegetables. You have to ask for a fortune cookie, they don't give it automatically. read more

Last week, I was on a 2 1/2 hour layover here at the Denver Airport. There are several choices, but I chose this one. The line was a little long, but went quickly still and was well worth the wait. Both lady and guy helpers were very nice and gave good service. Since this restaurant is in the airport, it is shared seating with all the other restaurants in the area. Decent seating, comfortable enough to finish your meal and go. They do seem to keep the front of their restaurant very clean. Their store front gives you the inviting and welcoming feelings. Now to the food! Everything looked really good! At this type of place, I always pick items that look fresh, have ample amount, if I can even still see steam coming, and when you actually see them put in a fresh bowl. So, my choice combo from here was Orange Chicken, Beijing Beef, and Chow Mein. It was all so fresh and yummy for my choices! Both main meats had little excellent spice kicks to them. They gave me enough to where I ate it all and was very full. I also did get the most humongously large drink and an order of 2 crispy spring rolls. Perfectly complimented my meal and even kept me full the rest of the day! Highly recommend! It's also my daughter's and my favorite when at the Denver Airport together!!! read more

Stopped today, and Carla helped me out with my order, she was so kind helping me paying. More people like her.

I got scammed! When I was at Panda Express I was with my starving children after a long plane ride. We had nothing to eat so we went there. First, we ordered 1 bowl and 1 plate of food. The lady there charged us for 2 bowls, 1 plate, and 2 waters that we didn't even order. Then she said my credit card didn't work so I payed in cash. 5 minutes later I looked at my phone of what I payed for. Guess what! She said my credit card didn't work but it did. I had to pay about almost 100 dollars when it was worth like 20. The food wasn't even that good. The beef and broccoli was salty and dry, and the fried rice tasted like pure olive oil. If I could rate Panda Express 0 stars I would. read more

Hot food that's ready to-go, makes this a quick on-the-go that you need if you're in a hurry. Four stars compares this to relatively the same restaurants read more

Panda Express - Fast Food Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This spot is quite a good find in the Denver airport. The price is still reasonable - for a combo with 3 sides, it's $12.xx dollars. That's much better than a lot of other overpriced options in an airport. The line was loooooong when I got there. But at least the food is readily there and no need to wait for them to be cooked by order. read more

On everything that is good and holy, NEVER EAT HERE IN LIfe!!! They serve the nastiest food I have ever consumed. They gave me Wontons with expired cheese and i felt so sick. The workers there did seem vert friendly and accomadating, but this is absolutely bad. I would suggest a conversation be had about washing hands as well. read more

Being gluten free is not my choice so when I walked up to Panda Express and saw rice and broccoli in the choices I felt I had options. Yet just to verify, I asked the server what gluten free choices she had. She said nothing was gluten free. They put wheat in their rice and broccoli? They had shrimp in bins. They put wheat in their shrimp? Ambiance is 0 because we're in an airport read more

Long line and confusing pricing at best. I'm a fan of Panda Express and needed lunch to fuel as I flew back home. Of course, I picked Panda Express...it's not so much authentic Chinese/Asian food..but after you had American Chinese food for a while...you would probably crave it like I do some time! I had just 30 min flight transfer/connection and decided to grab just a bowl of food (1 entree + 1 side). I chose lo-mein and honey walnut shrimp..but honestly didn't now what the prices were. There weren't receipt and the guy didn't ring the cashier...so I had no idea what the breakdown was. The total came to a lil more than $10 total. The food was ok. Of course, it is not the healthiest option. The food was sort of cold/lukewarm...and not anything too memorable. Hey, but it's my guilty pleasure...so I'm ok with those choices. If you are looking for healthier option, probably best to go elsewehre. But if you just need a guilty pleasure for oily Amerian Chinese food like I did...this will do! read more

Between McDonalds and Panda Express I'll always choose the latter. The line here was longer than other restaurants, but of all food options in Terminal A... this is probably the most acceptable. Overall, the service was quick-ish and prices were reasonable given it is DIA. Decent portion size for protein but not a lot of rice (and they were out of brown rice). Food tasted ok if you don't count the strong vinegar smell from orange chicken and honey walnut shrimp that hits your nose as you eat. read more

Location is in A Gates for the Denver Airport. I'm only here for vacation. This location is understandably pretty busy, I had ordered 2 Bigger Plates. (1/2, B5 Beijing Beef, F4 Honey Walnut Shrimp, C3 Kung Pao Chicken) + (1/2 -chow Mein with mixed veggies, C1 Orange Chicken, CB3 Honey Sesame Chicken, cream cheese wontons) The Manager on site took order, I asked for mixed veggies & they had none but I let her know I was willing to wait. She seemed a little annoyed, it was a very long line and a rush but I was okay with standing aside to wait. The first plate was prepared, I waited for my second. She told me just to pay now and then they would get it out as soon as it's done. When I'm about to go to cashier, a man rushed in front of me and told another older lady who was handling the food on the second end of the food display, that his plate was incorrect and there was a language barrier. He seemed frustrated and walked away. (I think that's important to capture, it's already been chaotic experience then) At this point, I go to the cashier who seemed irritated as is, and already had my order rung up. (Her name was Andrea, per the receipt. For better description in case I'm wrong with the name, she was in her early 20s, has glasses, and braces. Working along side was this pretty girl same age range with good make up) Andrea asked if I wanted anything else. I told her a small drink then said never mind because the price was already $26.68 (assuming it was a high from having 2 bigger plates) After I stand to the side, I read my receipt and realize they charged me incorrectly (I've been charged 2 regular plates, I needed to get the 3rd entree to complete bigger plate) so I go to the girl w good make up n let her know because Andrea was cashing out another customer. Andrea then takes the receipt and says "no I asked her if she wanted anything else and she said no" The Manager then steps over and Andrea repeats it again in Spanish to the Manager, and at this point it's become a bigger issue than I imagined. I let them know I'll just take the order as is, because it was busy and charging me for the two other items just seemed like a hassle. Andrea makes another comment stating "it wasn't her fault." At that point I said that I understood it is busy and maybe that's why you rushed to put in my order for the plates so it's whatever. The entire time, Andrea was being very rude and never once spoke directly to me. Just comments to manager & coworkers. I stood to the side and waited for my food, as I watched the manager and 3 employees (ones I've stated previously) look over towards me, giggle, and whisper. I expect that from the employees but from the Manager is wild. Once I got my food, it was still wrong. I got fried rice instead of chow Mein and Manager did throw in a small entree.. but it's the principle at this point. I wasn't going to do a review but seeing as this is an ongoing issue with this location, it only seemed fitting. Food was fine, they didn't have everything that is labeled out on the line. Seems to be a common thing here, again looking at reviews. Service was terrible. Really bad way to represent not only Panda Express but the impression of how Colorado hospitality is too. I've also tried leaving a review on Panda Express direct site but it does not look like I have all information I need for it on this receipt. read more

Panda Express - Timestamp of receipt - Fast Food Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Having a 3-hour layover at Denver International Airport, I asked myself, "What is the most filling yet affordable food around Concourse A?" Enter: the Panda Express plate. You choose 2 entrees and 1 side item for $8.30. Not a bad deal! Beware, though, certain entrees will upcharge you a buck or two! The fried rice is fair, and the Kung Pao chicken leaves something to be desired, but I love that they both contain vegetables. And although the kung pao chicken doesn't taste great, it has chili peppers cooked into the mix, providing some heat to my taste buds. The spiciness is necessary, considering your overall meal will be lukewarm. I have become a fan of the Sweetfire chicken! It doesn't offer up much meat due to the thick breading, but it tastes yummy and is easily the best part of my meal. If you're stuck at Denver International in Concourse A, looking for an inexpensive meal, and not in the mood for McDonald's, KFC, or pizza, then get in line at the Panda! read more

I mean, it's a Panda Express... inside an airport... Airport food is not known to be cheap or healthy, even if it is fast food. And the global COVID-19 pandemic collapsing air travel hasn't helped. Even as it recovers, not all of the airport operators have, leaving those still in business with long, long lines. But if you want a fast food option that at least has some sort of vegetables on the menu, and aren't deep fried, and you don't want to feel too ripped off for your semi-healthy meal, aaannnddd you don't want a crazy crazy long wait... well, it'll do. Even if the chow mein at this location is kinda weird, the noodles are too thin?!? read more

Located near A gates. Yelp says it's temporarily closed, but it was open both when I arrived and departed Denver in late July 2021. It's airport food, so what can we expect? The fried rice was bland and the lo mein noodles were very thin (not what I'm used to). BUT The staff is nice, the line moves fast, and the orange chicken/Beijing beef was okay! Good option for actual "fast" food. read more

For a quick and easy option at Denver International Airport it isn't too bad. I ordered some chow mein and Orange Chicken and it kept me full until my late-night flight. Many of the restaurants in this airport are mediocre and super expensive so this isn't a bad alternative. It'll run you around $10-12. The line moved quickly. McDonald's is right next door, but I will usually avoid McDonald's if there is not a toilet close by in the near future. read more

No choice here inside departure area my fried rice is half cooked and somehow it made it to the front counter and manager has no clue about the quality of the rice. Not a glorious way to finish the meal read more

I had a bad experience once with the wait and quality of food but customer service took care of it and answered to my concerns.

Fast and convenient. Line was long but it went by pretty quick. The food itself was really bland. Like everything was super under seasoned.

Will never return to this location. Just spent $9 on this horrible small red pouch of broccoli. I asked for beef and broccoli and they skipped the beef. They kept speaking about me in another language as they pointed at me and the food. I felt like I was being set up from the get go. read more

As always, the food was DELICIOUS!!! We love Panda Express! However, we've gotta say the Customer Service here is barely even one star, probably zero stars. The gal who took our order was bitter, short and hostile. So we thought - she must be having a bad day. But every successive employee we talked to, right on down to checkout where we paid, matched with the same bitter, curt, mean tone. Annoyingly so much that I took the time to write this review. Something's going on at this Panda Express. Not a single employee is happy nor friendly. I'm guessing it's poor upper management, usually is when all employees are unhappy. read more

When I am in DIA I will eat here. The food is almost always on point for a Panda. You run the risk of it not being quit e up to par when the restaurant is in an airport The price is not bad either. If you have time to kill and need a quick lunch or dinner bite I would go here. read more

No veggies. Very few options. And the options they do have look old and dry. They guy claimed it was because it was almost closing time. They close in TWO HOURS.

We didn't have a long lay over in Denver so our choices were somewhat limited. It is kind of nice that they have some fast food options all grouped together so if you are in a group everyone can kind of do their own thing. My fiance and my opted for Panda Express. To their credit, service wasn't that slow. Just like any Panda Express you select from pre-cooked items and they load you up. This location probably didn't have as many options as an actual walk in restaurant, but they had all of the standard favorites you would expect to find. We each went with the 2 entree and a side. I had the fried rice, black pepper chicken and an egg roll. Overall the food wasn't as good as we were expecting. It definitely tasted like it has been sitting out for awhile. The fried rice was pretty fresh, I'm guessing that they rotate in fresh fried rice on a pretty regular basis. Overall, the price isn't too bad especially since it's in an airport. The speed that they were able to take care of us was a huge plus as well, since we didn't have a long lay over. For these two reasons I would add a plus one to my overall review score making it a 3 out of 5 stars. If the review was only based on the food, I would have given a 2 1/2 out of 5. read more

WARNING: THIS PANDA EXPRESS DOES NOT ACCEPT PANDA EXPRESS GIFT CARDS. They don't have any vegetables available. Their steak entree has little to no steak in it and the steak hiding underneath the oily vegetables are fatty, chewy, overcooked cuts. I paid $17 out of pocket for this. The employees couldn't look less happy to be there. Go to McDonald's next door. At least they smile. read more

It's Panda Express, and it's in the airport. My expectations were not high stepping into line. Still, they were the food option that sounded best at the time, and I was starving. The line was out the food court area, and seemed to stall a bit when we first got there. I think I can blame the lady ordering food for a group, though, because when we got up there, the workers were all efficiency and quickness. The food was meh. About what you'd get at the mall, but at airport prices. My noodles weren't very fresh-tasting, there were more vegetables than chicken in the scoop of Black Pepper Chicken, and the Beijing Beef was a bit too cold, but it was sustenance, and it didn't make me sick. My standards for airport food are so damn low... We ended up dropping over $22 for two two-item combos and two bottles of water. They didn't even give us fortune cookies! Not that I eat them, but isn't that supposed to be a given? read more
