The food is usually pretty good, however they seem to always be out of what I want and the wait is 15 minutes or more for it to cook. They also take forever in the drive thru; they tell you to wait a second and about 7 minutes later they are finally ready to take your order... low and behold what you order they are out of! Plus when you do get what you want they always forget something (like the teriyaki sauce). They also can't seem to keep the same amount of food in their bowls and it's either full (which is great) or it's barley halfway full with mostly lettuce and hardly and noodles or meat! I would definitely say choose another restaurant if your in a hurry and if your not just make sure to check your food to make sure it's all there and correct before you leave their parking lot. read more

Just had a very great experience stress drive on the road. At the front counter was very kind. Food was fresh and just come out of the kitchen. read more

Panda Express - Ordered orange chicken bejing beef with fried rice got no orange chicken and half chow mein - Chinese Near Me - Kilgore, Texas

4:30Pm on a Thursday, people in side sitting and at the line ordering food. Doors locked not letting people in. Drive through still open, no sign or employee cared to let us know why we weren't allowed in. read more

Waited 10 mins in drive thru for them to take my order when they finally took my order she let me know it was gonna be 10 more mins for one of the sides I ordered. I guess the panda IS NOT XPRESS ANYMORE. read more

Wentt in...Very disappointed with appearance of food and choice's.... walked out no food?! Family hungry

I will echo the other reviews that this location is consistently out of things. Today we placed IN ADVANCE a large order for a meeting group and when we picked up the order all the brown rice requests had been substituted with white rice because they were out of brown rice. REALLY? I have often experienced a "we are out of that right now" when going through the drive through. Not a good representation of a chain restaurant where customers expect consistency. read more

I don't know what it is but last two times I've gone through the drive thru (because you're still in fear of opening dining room) I'm told it's a 15-20 minute wait for an item. One time it's super greens and then chicken teriyaki. It's suppose to be fast food, This last time I just told them cancel my order. Don't think I'm ever going back. It was good when it opened, but service had definitely gone down. read more

Service is terrible. Had to wait for my order to be taken, during the order the girl could not remember what I had just told her. Wasn't complex. When handed my drink it had foam from the root beer all over it. Must have overflowed when she filled and just handed it to me dripping. When I asked for a napkin she was highly inconvenienced by the request. My seven minute wait has exceeded its limit. I'm still waiting... can't even mention the food because I haven't received it yet. Update. Received my food finally. No apology for the wait or asked if I needed anything. She didn't even speak. read more

Maddie was truly awesome, from the cal phone call to the presentation of my order. This place is truly amazing . I recommend this restaurant to anyone and everyone. read more

Panda Express - Teriyaki Chicken Honey Chicken half and half noodles and rice. Awesome - Chinese Near Me - Kilgore, Texas

See all

Every time I come here I never get what I ordered. I swear it's like they go out of their way to mess your order up. And if you have to get a receipt be ready to wait for an hour, because they can't find it or their system is conveniently down. Staff's friendliness leaves much to be desired. Overall disappointing. read more

Worst Panda Ex I've ever eaten at. All of the food I ordered was burnt. Very slow service and to get a bag of burnt food after all of that was VERY disappointing. read more

Panda Express - Chinese Near Me - Kilgore, Texas

Delicious as always. The plate is $7.60 and comes with 2 entree and a side. It's enough to share with someone with some left over. The chow mein had a lot of celery in it, but it's not always that way. The honey walnut shrimp was not the best, honey chicken is on point, the portion for Shanghai Angus steak is unfair... Especially since they charge extra for it. Very clean! read more

Panda Express - Chow mein with double orange chicken plate - Chinese Near Me - Kilgore, Texas

They are always out of something and the last cashier ignored something I ordered because she had to let me know there was going to be a wait on something I ordered before that, so thanks a lot for paying attention! read more

I would give less than one star if I could. Called yesterday at 4:00. No answer. No one was at the restaurant and the drive thru was closed. Can't order on the app or the website trying to feed a hospice patient who wanted to eat this for dinner. Thanks Panda Express. You're supposed to be open at 4pm on a Friday. Worst location ever!!! read more

On 9/21/2019 around 3PM I arrived at the store with a smile to pick up an order that was called in 30 minutes prior. There were no other customers in the store. The clerk said he has the ticket and would get to it in a few minutes but then walked away. After this the staff didn't look at me or speak to me. Over a 20 minute span or greater there were 4 customers that came in about 5 minutes apart and were served promptly as I continued to stand, sit, pace. After the 4th customer got his order I asked the clerk does he have my order ready. He lifted up a receipt from the counter and said "yea, I've got it right here, we'll get to it shortly." At this time I became furious and told them to just cancel my order and I left. I need an answer to why I was treated this way and if this is standard business practice to not honor, respect, or prioritize pick-up orders. read more

COVID has nothing to do with this review. This location is THE WORST Panda Express. Do not waste your time or money here. If they aren't making you wait 15-20 mins for an item then they will mess up your entire order. Last 5 times I've been here I've had to send something back or ask for a full refund and go somewhere else. I had a coupon for my meal and she still charged me full price on my card and had to give me cash back for the difference. Just lack of caring for the customer and making sure to fulfill fresh orders. They literally DO NOT CARE HERE. Absolutely HATE Kilgore location. Terrible management and they NEVER answer their phone. They must know it will be a complaint. read more

Food wan not cooked all the way. It had 0 sauce on it. Let the manager know and she seemed to laugh it off.

The last 3 times I have been there, in the last 2 weeks I might add, the rice is HORRIBLE. It was under cooked, hard, and evidently when they fixed my togo plate the scraped the bottom and corner sides for my service of rice. I had clumps of hard rice the size of a golf ball, 4 of them! The noodles (i always get half and half) were very dry.. no moister at all. I need to call them, because I can not be the only person experiencing this crappy hard rice! The egg rolls are super great... to bad they quit serving the dumplings... read more

This is the first time panda express has disappointed. I have never previously eaten at the kilgore store and never will again. The green bean chicken was tough and old. The orange chicken tough and old. I will not be visiting this location again. Worst dinner. read more

My first time eating at Panda Express. Clean bath room and restaurant is always a good sign. Greeted by young lady at window to order. They were out of what we wanted ( shrimp and steak). Order was placed quickly and came in short order. Food was Correctly seasoned and good flavor. Since this is a first chain Asian inspired restaurant for me to try I was surprised that I enjoyed the food. Will eat here again. read more

Food is usually good but small portions for what you pay at this location. Ordered family meals twice in one week and the first order was surprisingly spectacular! The second order was smaller than the first. No sauces, silverware, or fortune cookies were added even though requested. Also all the box tops were torn and open so food was cold when I got home. When I called in no one answered the phone. I also tweeted but only got we will do better next time. I don't eat out often and this is why! I spend my hard earned money to get a fair deal and this was far from it. Definitely a disappointment read more

Service was good. Had to wait for mixed vegetables again. Seems to happen every time I order it. Was offered free egg rolls though. When I got home I realized that there was almost no beef in my broccoli beef bowl. One decent sized piece and a few shreds. My boyfriends Kung pow chicken had the same issue. Not happy at all! I called and spoke to the manager. Said they would replace the entree. I'm still hungry!!! read more

It is ridiculous to go to a restaurant at 4 pm and they are out of food. The last 3 times I have been in there has been terrible and very small portions. Not at all worth what you pay! We keep going to Longview. The food is fresh and you get what you pay for! By the way, they were out of white rice and will not make more....really a Chinese place out of rice? read more

I get off of work at 8pm and try to pick up food on my way home in the drive thru. On 3 recent visits, there has been an issue with getting the menu items. I was told on the first visit, that they were out of fire chicken. The 2nd time I was greeted and given the limited menu items available to choose from. This 3rd and final time, ever item I tried to order (except orange chicken) was going to be a 5-7 wait. This included fried rice, eggs rolls, fire chicken, and sesame chicken. I talked to the drive thru staff and expressed my disappointment and asked about what has happened recently that menu items were limited. He stated that because Kilgore is a small store, they stop cooking items toward then end of the shift so that there is less food wastage. I appreciate that concept. However, my expectations are this as a customer: I expect the complete menu to be offered during business hours-especially 2 hours prior to closing. I understand that incidents occur on occasion that food may be delayed but the habitual practice of limiting the menu is just poor business. I would prefer to go somewhere where I know I can get what I ordered. I would like to add that I asked if ordering the food online might guarantee the availability of the food I wanted. He stated "possibly". read more
