Twice, they delivered and there are missing items. 1st a drink and today a whole entree.

Panda Express - most of my super green were the center part of the cabbage. my beef and broccoli had no signs of soy sauce. - Chinese Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

My go-to cheap/somewhat healthy meal. The white rice, teriyaki chicken, and orange chicken plate has me in a CHOKEHOLD. For $10, this is the best post gym meal in a hurry. Staff has always been friendly with me, food is always good, and the building is extremely well kept! read more

Hair in food. Only 1 piece of chicken in my mushroom chicken the rest is just vegetables. read more

Panda Express - There was a hair in my food. Also, I ordered mushroom chicken yet only received vegetables. No chicken. - Chinese Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

Food is tasty. Got my order pretty quick during lunch time. Worker was friendly. Place looked cleaned.

Girl at window literally laughed in our face after telling us half the menu was "out" after we were patient enough to order other things. It got to a point we felt disrespected and left. read more

I've never left a review like this before, but what me and my friend witnessed at this Panda Express honestly broke our hearts and honestly disgusted us. The staff (two girls) were openly mocking and being rude to two customers who were clearly just hungry and trying to order, but didn't speak much English. Instead of showing patience or at least trying to understand, they laughed and made side remarks to each other right in front of them. It was awful to watch and absolutely unacceptable behavior for anyone working in customer service. No one deserves to be treated that way especially for something as simple as a language barrier. It's basic human decency to help someone, not humiliate them especially to the point they the were mocked the guy stated "I don't want it". I hope this location takes a serious look at how their employees treat people. This kind of behavior reflects horribly on the brand and should be addressed immediately. I hope they went somewhere and ate good food and were treated with the upmost respect! read more

Refuse to serve orange chicken past 10:15pm. It's your most popular item yet you're not going to make anymore with 15 minutes left? What a joke. Why you staying open till 10:30 if you not going to serve us anything we want. Just your left overs so you have to clean less you stated. Don't go here. Will waste your time. read more

Food was great, much better than most Panda Express I've had, I got the Orange Chicken with Super Greens. The cashier was attentive and while handling multiple things at once seemed to balance everything really well. The place was clean and there were more people inside than i expected at the time of day I went. Overall pretty great experience for a Panda Express in my opinion. read more

Approximately 8:30pm 8-17-23 The food was great, definitely up to the standard we normally expect from Panda Express. The thing that we were so impressed with is the amazing teamwork and work ethic of the employees. The service was excellent and very attentive to any customer needs. In addition to that, the speed and thoroughness the team demonstrated at keeping the entire restaurant clean was very impressive! It''a been a while since we've seen work ethic like this! read more

If Austin K from my receipt is the young man at the drivethrough register today, I would hire you! You get a whole star to yourself, sir. Drive through is pretty pokey; nearing ten minutes to get my food behind three cars and there were four more behind me when I pulled out just before 2pm. I like that they cleaned up the display board (if memory serves from so long ago) so the combo choices are clearer. Got a bowl (one entree, one side) of orange chicken with brown rice. Rice was dry like most fast food, sauce was pretty spicy. I don't hate really spicy, I just want to be able to taste the meat I'm eating for more than the first bite unless I'm debriefed beforehand. Cashier asked if I wanted to round up to the next dollar and give the difference to a children's hospital, which I did. He thanked me specifically for the donation at the time and again when he handed me my receipt. He was positive, friendly, so polite. There were two soy packets, a fortune cookie, napkins and a fork in my bag, all unrequested. Thank you, Austin! For seven bucks I am very full with leftovers, and I don't have that post-lunch food coma feeling I sometimes get when I indulge in fried fast food. This experience was better than I expected! read more

I didn't know panda had salads ?? Every time you get chow they don't ever wanna make more noodles so they just load you with cabbage. Had to tell them my order twice and the girl was just all giggly in the back. Zero stars read more

Panda Express - a take out container of food on a table - Chinese Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

Convenient location if you are southbound halfway between Austin and San Antone. Easy exit and re-entry ramp from IH-35. Place seemed clean, service and food was ok just like any other Panda Express. The broccoli in the mixed veggies tasted a bit strange though. read more

They ran out of all their food before close and only offered 2 items. Like I could understand being out of 1 or 2 things, but only having 1 entree and wagons available is ridiculous. If you stop having food by 9pm then close at 9pm. And this was 20 minutes before close granted I didn't expect them to have everything and I was ready to be understanding but being out of EVERYTHING like come on don't waste my time and just put that you close earlier if that's how y'all want to run it. read more

Part of the corporate numbness that is Panda Express, bringing Asian-themed food to the tired, hungry masses. The staff is pleasant and there are free drink refills. It's expensive for what you get and the food is not exciting. But it will get you by when you're in the 'hood. read more

Went for lunch I work at Amazon. Our lunch is at 915 waited 10 mins just to be told half of the stuff is out. It was 924 when I arrived! Worse place to come too if in a hurry read more

Two Stars, two-and-a-half at best. I eat here way more often than I should. It is super close to my office, I can eat for cheap, and their chow mein is vegan friendly. As other reviews have accurately pointed out, inconsistency is the downfall of this location. If you're lucky and get a fresh batch of food, it is pretty darn good. On the other hand, if luck is not on your side you get warmed over (or over warmed) food that has an off taste. I cannot place or describe the flavor, but it is bitter and not even soy sauce or hot mustard can salvage it. Speaking of the hot mustard-that stuff is good but HOT! A little goes a long way. Staff has always been pleasant and for the most part they keep the dining room picked up. Not my go-to spot by a longshot, but if I'm in a crunch and just have to eat something, I'm willing to take the gambit, and heck-sometimes it pays off. read more

The last meal I ate before going vegan was the orange chicken from Panda Express. Ten years later, I'm enjoying their beyond orange chicken and I am SO happy. read more

panda express is the best fast food place that I love their food tased the best I would die for Panda Express By:Anthony Gilley read more

This panda never fails! I travel to this panda not because of the location, because I drive by another panda, but because of the CUSTOMER SERVICE and cleanliness. I walked in the other day and was greeted by this young lady. Despite the amount of customers, the line moved really fast. When it was my turn to order, I was explained the differences between the orange chicken and the Beijing beef. The young lady asked if I'd care to try the honey walnut shrimp. I was given a sample and she stated they had freshly made the shrimp. The same lady assisted with getting my order and ringing me up. The above might seem "normal" but I then noticed the color shirt she was wearing. It was black. She was the manager and if I remember correctly her name was Martina. It goes to show the team work and the customer service at that location is on point. No matter if you are at a supervisor position, it's always great to humble yourself and help around instead of barking orders. I will definitely continue to drive pass the other Panda on the way to this one because I know I will be attended promptly and with a smile. read more

This express is poorly managed. I stop by today this the second time that claim that sold out of teriyaki chicken at 1130 am . The teenagers that work there just don't want work I wish I could that at my job read more

Either it's me, or people in San Marcos love Teryaki sauce. They NEVER have any, almost every time I come here. Very disappointing.. read more

Panda Express - This is NOT Teryaki sauce, it doesn't even taste good. Sad - Chinese Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

This location is near my office, so coworkers and I frequently eat here for lunch. I have never had any issues with their food or their service. It's not the best Chinese food in town, but it's a drive-thru. It's fast and convenient, and the food is good. read more

Panda Express - Yummy orange chicken and chow mein noodles. - Chinese Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

Don't go go to another town I drive far to come get this food in they can't even get the Order right I ordered teriyaki chicken and they give me some dry ass plain chicken with some dry ass rice no teriyaki sauce nothing go to another location. All I ask is if the manager could you please do some quality control and make sure your employees are doing their job but please go some where else there not many or in the restaurant here in San Marcos this really sucks that these guys can't get it right read more

What a mess!! Water all over the floor. Soda machine broke. Burnt food. Customers coming in angry about some smart comments made by employees in the drive thru. No manager on site and it showed. What a disgrace. read more

Panda Express - Water spilled and left. Gross. - Chinese Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

When it comes to the restaurant industry, people tend to judge a business by the "big three", food, people, and atmosphere. At this Panda Express you get the great, usually fresh food, the friendly employees, and an underwhelming dining room. I do realize that when you hear "Panda Express" you don't immediately think of five star dining, however in my recent experience here the dining room was freezing cold, the drink station was messy, and the music playing was entirely too loud. If you can live with these vices and appreciate the food for what it is then this is the place for you, however I believe that the food you eat is only as good as the place you eat it at. read more

Panda Express - Dining room at Panda Express - Chinese Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

I'm very disappointed at this location of the Panda Express. They gave a very small protion of Entree & sides that didn't and refused to fill up the empty space of the to-go plate when we compare to other location of Panda Express. We will not come back or recommend this location of Panda Express at all! I will give 0 star if there was a choice! read more

Biggest problem at this restaurant is consistency. I have eaten here almost every week for the last 3 months. There are times when the food is equal to other Panda's in the chain (an I eat at Panda Express vs Fast Food Burgers when I travel all over the US). But there are too many times when I find the quality of food and service at this location leave something to be desired. I've had a variety of problems with their meals including: Over salted Soup - could not eat Cold Entrees Overcooked Veggies - way overcooked. Missing items not in bag at drive thru (this happened twice) When I do eat here, I only order as a walk-in customer. No more drive thru roulette at this place. Overall - This is better than a burger joint from a calorie standpoint, but the lack of consistency leave me looking for something better. Good luck is all I can say. read more

I have frequented this location multiple times since moving. They were all okay experiences until today. I came into the store to get a plate to go. There was no chow mein so I was told to wait and they'd call my name. Five minutes go by and no one was working on my order. At the same time about six people in line behind me had been served. I asked an employee who looked like the supervisor named Martina about my order. Martina was very abrupt and dismissive to me. She mumbled okay walked off and continued serving other customers in the store. I proceeded to watch another half dozen customers get served. At that point I asked the cashier who had been standing five feet from me the whole time and began to get a little upset. He quickly asked someone personally to get my food. When I got home to finally eat, I opened my styrofoam box and found that one entree I ordered was incorrect. The other which was correct beef and broccoli literally had two measly pieces of beef. This has been in the top ten worst food experiences for me. read more

I have been to this location multiple times and it's always great...but today they told me they were only taking cash...like really?? Lol I don't ever carry cash so it was extremely disappointing because I really would have spent my money there. Just disappointing. Now I get to spend my money at another company. Most likely whataburger. read more

Don't waste your time. Clearly if your not in a car at the drive thru they don't worry how long your in line. Worst of all I to add insult to injury even though I was there standing for a while waiting with no one behind me, when they do decide to start paying attention they take the two white peoples order that were standing besides me first. I have to say I've never had this happen ever and this is the first time I've ever walked out of a restaurant. Won't be going back there ever again. Instead went to the Popeyes couple buildings down. Go there instead they are very nice there. read more

I ordered a plate with Beijing beef and orange chicken I only received orange chicken, very disappointed Beijing beef is my favorite part.

I'll never understand why Yelp makes you give at least one star. Zero should be an option. If it was, this would definitely qualify. From the time we ordered on the drive thru until we got home and discovered our order, the experience was beyond unpleasant. First, the girl working the drive thru was clearly unhappy to be at work and unhappy to be helping us. Maybe she should search other career options, because she's doing herself, the customers, and the business a disservice by working there. Second, we ordered a medium entree of the beef and broccoli. Seven. Dollars. And. Forty. Cents. Let that sink in. No side, just the entree. The box was tiny--smaller than a coffee mug! My husband actually went back in to make sure they gave us the right size. They said "some things are tiny." Some. Things. Are. Tiny. Boochacha please. Anyway, see the picture of the box for reference. But that's not all! On the way home, it leaked some sort of juice out of the box into my newly cleaned car. Not. Happy. When we got home, we opened the box, which should supposedly serve two. And THIS is what was in it--approximately three and a half pieces of beef and some soggy broccoli. Well, that was a waste of $7.40 plus taxes. I could buy a head of broccoli and a piece of beef jerky cheaper than that and have more to eat. And to top it all off, my son found a HAIR in his orange chicken. I'm so done. Visited on 6/15/18 at 5:25 pm. Our "server" was Lesley F according to the receipt. read more

Ordered online at 11:42am, said would be done at 11:52, 20 minutes later, still waiting. Unacceptable. Then I still didn't get sweet and sour sauce for the rangoons. Come on man.....dam. This isn't rocket science. read more

Staff is always nice. The lobby is always clean but bring a sweater. They have an open kitchen so you can see everything they're doing. I suppose the cooks get hot so they crank the AC down, which freezes everyone else. Sometimes they have to cook your order so you don't get it as quickly but overall they have freshly cooked food ready to dish up. This is a great place to go if you need some quality groceries in your belly. They have great tea too. read more

Horrible Experiences.....I've tried this place more than once my suggestion not worth the wait....we waited almost an hour and a half for Drive thru then we finally got to the window to find out out of orange chicken AGAIN!!!! And we get our food finally home and it was still cold. Never again!!!! read more

Upon entry to the establishment, I have noticed that the staff where behind in their food selections at the serving line. A count of 4 food items were not available when making my order. I waited approximately10 minutes and yet the customer service attitudes seems to be lacking zest. Basically, the staff looked tired. Also, some of the staff members were not wearing their name badges and one looked read more

I go here about 4 times a year, so close to my work. I ordered chicken and mushroom bowl with fried rice. Got it to my office opened the lid and there was a wire brush bristle about 2 inches long sticking out of the surface!!! What, those things can kill you!! Shot off an email to Corporate "contact us". Although they replied in their 'do not reply' form email,that I'd hear from them in 2 or 3 days, I have not heard a word! They need to strip that place of ALL WIRE BRUSHES!!! So much for customer CARE! What a joke read more
