It is mass produced, fast food Chinese, so it is about what you would expect. I went between giving three and four stars but went with three simply because of the inconsistencies in quality and service. There are a variety of entree options and you can choose one, two or three entree meals. They also have family meals (honestly, these are a really good value). They do let you sample items to see if you would like it. One thing I've noticed is that a lot of the items have a very similar flavor. Not bad by any means, but just not that distinguishable from other options. If the food is freshly made, it is usually pretty good. Decent amount of sauce and juicy. But if it has been sitting around, it shows. It can be really dry and lack flavor. If you order in store, they can and will make a fresh batch if it is really low or old, but if you order through the drive through, you have no idea what the quality might be. Overall, not a bad place, but with several locally owned options that can usually have meals ready in 10-15 minutes, I recommend going to one of those instead of here. read more

They were out of mushroom chicken. Got pepper steak it tasted like beef jerky. The chow mein noodles were extra al dente. We had to douse them in the soy packets. read more

Friendly service and delicious fast food Chinese. sadly they were out of a few things when I arrived but the quality was still good and filling. I love the honey walnut shrimp and Beijing beef the most, but the orange chicken is another great option. Newer establishment and lots of parking available. read more

Panda Express - Plate Beijing beef and honey walnut shrimp - Chinese Near Me - Monroeville, Pennsylvania

Mall Chinese. Fast American Mall Chinese at its finest. The OG of Fast American Chinese. Panda Express has been in Pgh for decades BUT was only at the mall at South Hills Village until the stand alone stores opened across the suburbs. And as long as you know exactly what Panda Express is - this place is perfect except that they are always understaffed. This store is clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. Food is loved by my kiddo. And for a Panda Express, they are on top of getting meals prepared fresh and out the door in 10 minutes. Anyone who knows PE understands they make fresh food constantly. Sometimes there's a small wait. 5 minutes to make something. My kids LOVE this stuff (and the little one "hates" Chinese food) We have regular items that are favorites. Depending if the entire family is eating or just 1-2 people, our orders vary. My kids like the kids meals that are a main, side & come w a drink & sliced fruit. It's a deal for $7.00 . I'd it's just myself and a kid. I get them the kids meal and get myself the build a plate w 2 entrees. It's $10. And is a lot of food. I usually get the super greens with pepper chicken and string beans chicken. Or will get the $9 bowl that comes w 1 entree and a side. I choose noodles and teriyaki chicken. My husband varies in what he likes. He likes everything, truth be told. Orange chicken is probably the most popular item amongst us all. On family nights- I get take out. Again, the wait is always long here. The one downside. The prices are moderate. Bowls are $9. Plates 11. And the family meals under $40. It's a lot of food & I can't get take out Chinese for dinner for the entire family anywhere close to their prices. Some might think PE is not authentic- it's not. It's perfect for what it is. Fast Americanized Mall style Chinese. And for that- it is amazing and done well. My tip- plan ahead. They have a mobile app. I order 20 minutes before I need to pick up so I'm not stuck waiting. read more

To wait 15 after in the drive-through had me park in parking lot for fast food?? I don't know if it's these new little 14-year-old but they need to get all their shit together. There's no way I had to wait that long and I could've went to the Fortune star across the street and got my food quicker unbelievable and then they come out and get no discount get no fortune cookie no nothing like just unbelievable horrible won't be back read more

I love a good Panda Express but they are hard to find! Like all others, this one said I had to wait 5 minutes to get my order so I ordered something else as I did not want to wait 5 minutes for drive through food. I ordered Broccoli Beef and of course the broccoli was soggy! read more

Panda Express - Soggy Broccoli Beef. Just a little beef and lots of soggy Broccoli! - Chinese Near Me - Monroeville, Pennsylvania

Went for dinner takeaway. One of the items we ordered was being refilled. We were asked to wait for 7 minutes. The staff checked us out and after the payment, they conveniently forgot about us. We waited for more than 30 minutes and left without food and no refund. The staff was unapologetic and indifferent. Will never go back. read more

Undercooked chicken. Made me wait for 10 minutes for "fresh chicken" and food was warm and undercooked. Threw it away immediately.

Post-convention meal in the area and Vog wanting some familiar fare - we settled here. Last time it was decent, this time much of the same but still tasty. If you are looking for gourmet food - might want to save the sub-3 star reviews. Inside was fairly clean, ordering process was pretty straightforward, as i ordered a plate with white rice, beef broccoli and an egg roll. The egg rolls weren't ready yet - but they brought me out one upon them being done frying. Was kind of pricey for what I got - and really the beef broccoli was just ok. It is just what it is set up to be - fast Chinese food and pick what you want fare. read more

Panda Express - Chinese Near Me - Monroeville, Pennsylvania

The food at this Panda Express was the best looking food I've ever seen at a Panda Express. It sounds exaggerated, but I got a bigger plate so I could try more things. Food tasted great and the staff was very friendly! I travel the United States for work and this is the best location I've ever been to. read more

The last time I had Panda Express was inside an amusement park years ago. That is because, until recently, Panda Express was not available in the Pittsburgh area. That all changed recently and they have popped up all over the area and people I know were shouting their praises. But much like Chipotle, I waited to try them out. Because that experience years before was not the most pleasing...but again, it was inside an amusement park. I have been trying to try 'new to me' places when it comes to my lunch for work. Those places could be your regular run of the mill national chain, such as this, or your local favorite hole in the wall. Since I drove this way for work, I decided just drive through Monroeville and see what's available. A lot of the fast food fare joints had lines for the drive thru and I just wanted something where there was no wait. Honestly, there was no one in line here, so I just drove right up to the menu and literally had to ask them to give me a minute because I had no idea what I wanted. Do yourself a favor here, get yourself a plate. That way, for a little bit more money wise, you get to try two things at once. Or go for the bigger plate and try three at once. I got the plate and went with the Original Orange Chicken and the SweetFire Chicken Breast. Also decided on the fried rice. A decent size portion of both and the rice was just the right amount. I got myself the large drink, which to me was a bucket. I did not get a side, wished I would have, but I wasn't in tune with the menu and just skipped over that part. But I do have to say that I enjoyed the bit of a spice kick the orange chicken had and the mix of vegetables with the sweetfire chicken breast made it feel like and well rounded meal. As far as my bucket of a drink, that took me a while to finish. I know it's fast food, and it's the American twist to Asian cuisine, but it was actually a decent meal. read more

WORST FAST FOOD EXPERIENCE IVE EVER HAD! People in there horrible . knew it was gonna be like that as soon as i got there but still gave em a chance. drive thru was insane too . never had bad panda express til today . read more

Nice, convenient option when the normal fast food options are not desired. Entree choices are plentiful, and taste samples are kindly offered. Most of the choices are far from qualifying as healthy eating, but you might find a few basics. I observed heavy usage of deep fryers . Some of the entrees come frozen and are then dumped right into the fryer. They list caloric info next to each item. Some of the entrees were very dried out and needed to be rescued from the heat lamp. Supportive staff, and a comfortable dining space contribute to the postive points. Lots of "thank-yous "and "pleases"were heard between each staff member. If given the time, choose going to a buffet since the price, quality, and entree options certainly outweigh a meal here. read more

New stand-alone chain restaurant in Monroeville on William Penn Highway (US 22) where the Sunrise Inn stood before being demolished for this new building and parking lot. It's clean, has plenty of parking, staff is friendly. As with the other models for this chain, you go through a line, pick your items from the selection along the line, the staff places the items on your plate and you pay at the end of the line. I chose a 2 item entrée with white rice -- angus beef and veggies and a spicy peanut/chicken dish. Please note the smaller print on the white board -- the prices all state "STARTING AT". I found that bit of a surprise and irritatingly so when the staff let me know that the angus beef was more than 1.00 extra from the "Starting Price". I wonder what one gets for the "Starting Price". Just a Customer Relations issue that comes across negative to me, the customer. Just price each dish individually if that's how you're gonna play the game so there are no surprises to me, your customer. Anyway, the visuals of the dishes are good -- very colorful and full of veggies. The taste was decent, as well. The price? Eh, ok -- $12.18 total bill for 2 items, rice, and a medium drink. And, it IS good to have a new option for fast-food dining in Monroeville. read more

First visit to Panda Express. The first person at the counter taking our order, was friendly and very nice, we told her it was our first visit and she offered us a sample of a main dish if we wanted. Not to many places offer that. The second person as our plate was passed down the line was just as friendly. I enjoyed the Teriyaki Chicken, fried rice and spring roll on the whole. They serve PepsiCo products, so I was able to get my raspberry ice tea ! Ok negative ... it wasn't the best part of the chicken. I cut away most of the ends. I will try something different next time. I will return, but I won't go out of my way for fast food Chinese. I am glad we stopped, I am glad I had a chance to try it. read more

Good experience all around. The restaurant is clean, the food was hot, and the staff are kind!

I have 2 words for Panda Express 1. Why For those of you who recall the Nancy Kerrigan incident.... I find myself screaming the word WHY WHY WHY over and over again in distress and agony. Why is what they have to offer called Chinese food.... Or food in general because it's NOT! My food was sour, cold, offputting and all around horrid. And my 2nd word is 2. DON'T Save your pallet and wallet and just Don't patronize. Not even for convenience. read more

Quick and tasty. Friendly Service. My first visit ever to a Panda Express. Team work evident As someone who works a lot and has limited time to cook this made a great choice for to-go food to eat at work or at home with no mess no-fuss. Will definitely be back. read more

3.5 stars...rounded up. I've always been a fan of Panda Express...nor sure why as most of them are usually found in mall food courts, or the like. This one is clean, quick, convenient, and reasonable - given the portion sizes. Plus, it's a "stand alone" store, which makes it different than the others. Quite simply, it's Asian fare served swiftly with a good set of choices from mild to spicy. There's a choice of entrees and sides - all priced according to your hunger level (one, two, or three entree portion sizes). It's by no means fine dining, but it's a solid alternative when shopping in the Monroeville area and you're looking for flavorful food but not looking for a traditional sit down meal that takes some time. It's worth the stop...and it won't take long to order and chow down. read more

Panda Express - Good size portions with the two entree selection! - Chinese Near Me - Monroeville, Pennsylvania

First of all, the employees here are helpful and friendly. That being said, the food was not up to par with other Panda's. I ordered chow mein and brown rice for my sides. These are my usual side choices. The chow mein was not the same. It was dry and there were hardly any vegetables, it was just noodles. Weird. The worse part was my first bite of brown rice didn't taste right. Then I smelled it and it smelled like mildew. I had another bite and it tasted rotten. I stopped eating it because I didn't want to get sick on my road trip. I shouldn't be eating carbs anyways but it was a disappointing visit. read more

Food was fresh and very yummy, not sure why other reviews say that the staff is "unfriendly" One of the workers was kind enough to give us our food that was ready while we waited for them to make more orange chicken, he also brought us soy sauce and was very polite. read more

do not come here if you want white rice after 4 pm because they never have it. i am not joking when i say, in the last month i have gone here 5 times and every single time they said they didn't have white rice, which is the only side that i enjoy there. one wonders if they ever even have the white rice in stock. an honorable mention is a different time, when they actually did have white rice, but didn't have utensils, only chopsticks, but didn't let us know that and threw chopsticks in the bag as if we wouldn't notice. read more

So my food was extremely overcooked. I was not given sauce for my egg rolls. They forgot my fortune cookies I had to return for and women told me she did not charge me for these. The 1.50 item fortune cookie I'm assuming is the change for the fortune cookies. Just extremely rude service and terrible food. read more

Don't know why I keep tormenting myself by going to Panda Express. I like the food, but they are always out of the honey walnut shrimp and the 7-9 minute wait. Also out of Kung Po Chicken and the greens looked horrible. I settled for the orange chicken and lomein. read more

Just opened my order. Unfortunately I got 2 vegetable rolls instead of crab rangoons. Bit of a bummer. The sesame chicken I order was good. It's spicy though so beware if that's not your thing. It was quick but not sure if it would be my first choice based on the mess up of a two item order. I live to far from it to want to trek back out there. read more

Two bad experiences in less than a week. First time, I went in for a pick up and was completely ignored. Like two people walked right by me without DOING THEIR JOB. I was the only customer in the store, so they can't say they were busy. Second, came for another pick up just before 8:30pm but the doors are locked, drive thru lights off... what are the store hours? This isn't covid related so what's going on haha read more

The food was very underwhelming although the restaurant was clean, it was also empty we went around lunchtime. The only thing that was enjoyable was the orange chicken. Service was good. read more

Don't bother placing an order using their app. Even if you set it to be picked up at a specific time you will be forced to wait there because they didn't bother putting the order together. read more

This was by far the worst Chinese food I have ever eaten. I truly do not understand how you can make food taste this bad. You almost have to intentionally set out to do it. The chicken tasted undercooked and was just terrible. Everything was bad, just avoid this place. I'm not even going to get into the service. It's obvious everyone there hated their job and just wanted to leave. But if I had to be around that terrible food all day, I would want to quit and be snarky with the customers as well.... read more

I wanted to try Panda Express because of all the hullabaloo I've heard about it...but I should start by saying I am not to any degree typically a "fast food" kind of guy. My 10 year old son is anti-fast food. We just don't do it. But hey, we just got in town from a 3-week vacation, had to food shop, got haircuts across the street...I was in no mood to cook...so we gave it a try, seeing the new location and given what I'd heard about it... ...and it did not disappoint at all. Pretty darned good, actually! What is up with that Chow Mein? That stuff is banging! Heck, I'm so tired right now I don't exactly remember what we had specifically...oh! - but they do offer samples! Chicken with green beans, some other chicken thing...the boy had chow mein, rice, some beef stuff he devoured with broccoli. Hey...nice staff, the place was clean, the food was really good (I want like six pounds of chow mein to go...)...yeah...we could make an exception and do this again. Goes well with haircuts...lol! read more

I know it's fast food American Asian but I still love it. This location is clean and people are friendly. The food is your regular panda, but oh my do I love love love the orange chicken. The crab Rangoon are a favorite as well. Good value for the money. Thumbs up. read more

Really, really bad. Chicken and Beijing beef were greasy and overcooked. Fried Rice was beyond dry. Tasted like everything was sitting for a while and I went for lunch or a Monday. Definitely not recommending going here and I doubt I ever will again. read more

Food was pretty good. Service was interesting....they really didn't know the menu or the ingredients of the dishes. We ordered at the drive-thru, which I don't recommend. It appears there is a greater selection if you go inside. I'm not sure of that-but, it seemed we've seen other items that we didn't see on the outside menu. We'll try it again before I give my final verdict. read more

Went there for the first time today. The lines were backed up and although there seemed to Be probably 8 persons on duty it was still understaffed. The workers seemed miserable as though they were working during the super bowl. I wasn't warmly welcomed and I didn't get a smile from anyone. I ordered the largest plate but was given a medium. I had the lo mein, mushroom chicken and the orange chicken. The food seemed dry but my biggest complaint is that me and my friend were both sick afterward. I don't have a weak stomach, as I like to go to fortune star maybe once every 2 months. I've never been sick going to fortune. I really won't be back read more

Bad news first: 1. Confused on the portion size and didn't get enough. 2. Not the best selection during the dinner rush. 3. A rather hectic ordering experience overall. 4. I was really looking forward to Chow mein and it wasn't like I expected it to be, noodles were very dry (maybe it is supposed to be like this, not sure) Good news (!): 1. The main dishes we got were pretty tasty! The meat seemed like it was a very good quality and cut. And the spring rolls and cream cheese rangoons were great as well. 2. They gave us tastes which was great since we've never been there before. 3. Fast service I would come again since the food was good, but I will probably get rice instead of chow mein. And I would definitely come during a different time of day to avoid a rush and to get a better selection. read more

Food is delicious! This is the first time trying a Panda Express. The guy at the front counter taking food orders was extremely nice and let us each sample something on the menu. The bowl was more than enough for me! They give the perfect amount in portions. We got the orange chicken. It was very good, little bit of spiciness, and no fatty parts! I am usually very weird about chicken in general and especially Chinese/Japanese (or any kind like this) food! Food was hot, fortune cookies were good, service was quick during lunch on a Friday! They were busy but quick, so they never had a line. Dining room was clean and well kept. Will be back!! read more
