    After my terrible experience at the panda express in Dixon, I was still hankering for some panda, so I just continued onto Vacaville Anyhow, the food looks much fresher, like it been cooked in the last hour versus the Dixon location, and the staff was super friendly Generous portions, which were not part of the Dixon location make this my future stopping place when I'm on this route

    Apparently you can make over $100k working for Panda Express!

    Ordered through their App on the drive over from across town. Ordered a 2 item plate (chow mein, honey walnut shrimp and orange chicken). It was ready 5 minutes before the expected time. When I got there the restaurant was pretty busy with dine-in and drive-thru customers. Had to wait a few minutes for a diner to pay for their food and another person in front of me who was picking up an order. The lady who helped me was very nice. Order was ready as the App told me. Pretty good experience this visit, but overall service and food quality is hit and miss at this location.

    Line is crazy long

    We ordered the Family combo that came in a box and it was good. They got the correct items and it was a good amount for a good price. It was also ready on time when we ordered in the app.

    Sorry excuse of food

    Make sure you keep an eye on how much food they give you. One of the workers there makes sure they give you less than a full scoop of the orange chicken... THE ORANGE CHICKEN. I just opened my box and this is what I got. How goddamn ridiculous.

    Normally Panda is a great go-to for tasty Chinese food with fresh vegetables. I often order Kung Pao, and was happy to find their King Pao sauce sold in the grocery store. It makes for a great addition to takeout and is good for stir-fry too. Unfortunately, the location on Monte Vista has been slipping a bit lately with online orders, and tonight I brought home a meal for two and one order was completely missing an entree. Unfortunately, this is the second time. Not sure if the broccoli beef ticket is not printing correctly, or it's being missed by staff, but because this is the second time I came on to bring it to management's attention. Otherwise keep up the good work. Panda is a great restaurant franchise and I look forward to returning soon!

    Don't know why this Panda has such low ratings. This is my favorite stop on the way to Sac from the Bay. Perfect midpoint for a snack on the long drive home. I normally go through the drive through but this time I decided to go in as I had to use the restroom. Everything was cleaned and all the food looked fresh. There was a little crowd but everything went rather smoothly. I sat down and eat a little bit of my food before I went on the road again. I'm glad I left the Applebees earlier because I really enjoyed my meal. Place is located right off the freeway so it's easy to get back on. Would definitely say to come visit this location whenever in the area. It's clean and chill spot. Always a good meal for me.

    Service was good, the quality was ridiculous they put the old food from the warmer on top of the fresh cooked food! Had to tell the server to please serve me the new that was just made‼ Look at the old food on the top right hand corner, can't missed the difference. Can't be upset at the server they're instructed to do that

    Sorry to say I am reluctantly done eating at In-N-Out restaurants…read more After a lengthy drive and stopping for a hopefully pleasant casual lunch it turned into an absolutely awful experience. Finding parking at this location was a nightmare. It's similar to other In-N-Out locations. Not enough and the layout is impossible to navigate. Plus the line for the drive up window blocks many of the available spaces. We, like others, had to park in a parking lot across the street... no doubt that business loves that spillover??? First using the restroom was disgusting. It was filthy, not maintained and way too small for the volume of people. As a model they should know better by now. Does any staff check it occassionally? It was 1:30 on a weekday and they just couldn't keep up with the orders and the lines didn't move and it got incredibly backed up. Folks were getting super irritated. Then the bedlam of finding a place to sit and eat. People hovered over tables waiting for that last bite to grab a place. Children ran around unruly, screaming and yelling (OK, that's a parent issue, but staff should be trained as they walk around to tell them that's not acceptable). Then, the most disappointing part- the food. I'm sorry it's not what it used to be. The volume is apparently sacrificing quality. What happened? Even the fries were soggy and greasy. I should give it one star, but this has been a long standing mainstay for quick quality fast food. Sorry, no more. I left this experience upset and with a lump in my stomach. They had a model that worked but didn't expand the corporate 'mold' to meet the demand.

If you park your car in the drive/in spot, you can place your order through the menu kiosk which is available at each spot. If you rather order at the building and eat at one of the few table inside or outside, there is an order kiosk inside and one outside. The food is delivered to you by an employee. They used to roller skate out to your car to deliver your food, but I noticed the 2 people delivering food that day did not roller skate. I got the Double Sonic Smash Burger and it was very good with nice seasoning. My son got the Supersonic Double Cheeseburger and Strawberry Shake (my son really love their shakes). Overall rating: -Food: 4/5 -Ordering: 3/5 easy ordering through the kiosk, but the one inside the building was missing the menu, so unless you know what you want to order, there is no reference. -Service/Food Delivery: 2/5 because they lost the nostalgia of the roller skater delivering your food.

They are attentive and treat you nicer than you expect at a business. The food is served in very generous portions and they make a good, house made, horchata. I recommend ordering some. If grandkids are listening, I say the food is pulled up a bit by you're hospitality. Pico de gallo? A blended maybe cooked tomato chili salsa? Freshly chopped onion and cilantro? The rice is a bit bland, but when combined with the red wet burrito sauce, it is fantastic. I think a drizzle of that sauce should be on the inside of every burrito.
