Overpriced deep fried, salty buffet/fast food style Chinese food. Ordered Mongolian beef, wonton puffs, orange chicken, chicken lo mein, egg roll. Disgusting with a big hole in my wallet. I don't know what this type of food is called but it's an insult to authentic Chinese food and it hurts going down. read more

I order food from this restaurant at least once a month or more. I love there gang pang chicken always great flavor and so tastful. My go to place for chinese food that isn't Panda Express ! read more

This place is not right around the corner from us so we don't often think about it when we want Chinese. We will from now on! The food is fantastic and the service was incredible. The owners are there overseeing every aspect of the business and it shows. We had the Hunan chicken and I asked they add beef to it as well. No problem. We also had chicken lo mein and egg rolls. Everything was freshly prepared and outstanding. From now on we will drive by a dozen Chinese restaurants that are much closer to us on our way to Panda Garden. We will become regulars! read more

I ordered the gang pang chicken with steamed rice but only received a container full of battered chicken. I was really looking forward to a jalapeno filled dish that had some zing to it but there wasn't ANYTHING but battered chicken in the container and some sticky flavorless seasoning. Not a single pepper of any shape, size or color :( Was bummed to open the box and find this. The dish wasn't bad but it was a big disappointment based on other reviews and the photos of this particular dish... read more

This place is good but of course not the best I have ever tried nor the cheapest.. extremely high priced. On the inside of this place it's nice and tidy. When I called and placed my order over the phone for take out the person I talked to upped the price of everything by an extra $5-$8 which of course I corrected. The numbers were re-run and sure enough. Smh... but over all it's ok. I have been here 2 times so far.. read more

Absolutely delicious. Great portion sizes. AND- Very pleasant people! Can't wait to order from here again. This is my new favorite place.

We ordered lunch today for three people. We ordered sweet and sour chicken, orange chicken, and a pork dish. Each of the entrees came with fried rice and an egg roll. The fried rice didn't seem to be typical fried rice, more like white rice with an ample amount of soy sauce mixed in. The egg roll was actually a spring role, it was mush, tasted ok but not what we anticipated. The batter for both the shrimp and orange chicken was thick, unseasoned, with an overwhelming flower taste. I love stuff fried, but when the amount of batter exceeds the amount of protein, it's just strange. The shrimp dish came with raw vegetables that were cold and tossed on top, almost like an afterthought very strange. I want to love this place, because it's local, but I just can't. read more

omg this is the worse chinese food in the area......foods has not flavor. was cold.and the worse of them all we found a hair in our fired rice. and the manager or owner said oh it happen.....rude!!!!!!!!! stay away ! CRAP!!! read more

This was pretty good service. I accidentally ordered my food for takeout instead of delivery. I called them to see if it was possible to get my food delivered. They were nice enough to change my order to delivery and I just paid the delivery driver the fee. read more

If you're thinking about eating here....think again. I've never had such nasty chinese food in my life. The fries rice had a strange taste....I can't quite put my finger on it....it was a mix between medicine and some toxic chemical. The second it hit my tongue, I had to spit it out. It was shocking. I just spent 42 dollars on food and I'm still hungry. Most of it went straight into the trash. NEVER AGAIN. I wish I could give zero stars because they deserve none!! Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. Anything would be better than this place. read more

I love Panda Garden! They are so accommodating! If you want a healthier lunch, they will not fry the meat. If you want authentic, they will make you something directly from China. I like the Americanized China food though. The General Two is my favorite. Sesame chicken, and lemon chicken are regular orders from us too. The owners are so sweet. Julie know me by voice and she knows my order. Customer service is a priority there! I love the lunches and the portions are a very good value. read more

Still great food, I have tried many of the menu items. My favorite is the "Triple Delicacy"; it is basically the Mongolian Beef with chicken and shrimp included. I have them add broccoli and carrots to mine. Delicious! read more

This used to be my favorite Chinese restaurant close by. However, the last time I ordered there, the food was horrible. I have tried to complain but get ignored. I email the contact to no response. I have called and been hung up on. I will never eat there again. read more

Panda Garden - This is NOT how fried rice should look. It tasted even worse. - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Finally! I great Chinese Restaurant in ahwatukee! Family owned and operated! I had their Mongolian beef with noodles and my husband had the kung pao chicken with rice! Portions are generous and both orders were excellent! Will be ordering take out again soon! read more

Have been going here for years, it is a great place for date night, the food is always good and the owners are always friendly and love to talk, its great to have a good Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood. read more

I have been coming to panda garden since I was around 7 years old. The owners and employees were always friendly and did a good job, there has never been a complaint there. The food is and always has been delicious. There are so many good flavors in their dishes and it is far more authentic than any other Chinese place that I have been to. The best part about Panda Garden is that you can basically add whatever you want to your dish, they are very flexible with their cooking. For example, if you want to have the orange chicken or the gang pang chicken but you don't want it to be breaded and fried, then you can ask them to make it unbreaded! Another thing, I've seen complaints in previous posts about the sizes of the egg rolls... this is because there are two different types. The bigger more traditional ones are actually the spring rolls while the egg rolls are smaller. In my experience, some of the best dishes at panda garden are: ANY of the Kung Pao dishes, house lo-mein, sesame chicken, Mongolian beef, shrimp fried rice, vegetable deluxe (if you add tofu it's even BETTER), and Hunan Chicken. Everything here is cooked fresh, the vegetables are steamed, they do everything for themselves and they use vegetable oil when they cook, not any peanut oils. Honestly I think that this place is a great find and their food is really delicious. To all of the people who have made bad reviews about it, I strongly encourage you to give them a second chance, there might be something else that you'll like. In my opinion, this place is the best Chinese food place in this area. While the atmosphere may not be the best, the food is delicious and the owners/employees really want to serve you and it is definitely worth it :) P.S-it's not chow mein it's, lo-mein. This isn't Panda Express kids. read more

I love this place! I feel I cannot say good enough things about this restaurant. This is my fav Chinese restaurant in town and honestly, best Chinese I've tried in years! I love their fried rice and their low mein is to die for! This is the only place I order from! read more

Great place, came down from Boston ordered take out (delivery to my hotel) I fell in love with the Cream cheese puffs that today I went there to get some more. The best read more

We moved here in January and were delighted to find an excellent Chinese restaurant! We ordered from here many times in the first couple of months. I have to say that the last 2-3 times the food has gone downhill. Edible, but there is a strange odor and lack of freshness. Quality has certainly gone downhill. Sorry to say we will be looking for another place. read more

Place was great, new spot the family and I tried on Easter Sunday and all the family enjoyed. Certainly will be back :)

We come here for lunch and it's always great. Nice folks and very attentive, big portions and food is good.

I love this restaurant! And they deliver! They are quick, authentic, and tasty. When I need my "real" chinese fix they are my go-to! Their portions are huge... And did I mention they have green tea ice cream? read more

Food is pretty good here! They haven't let me down yet! Love the fact that it's family owned!!

Super yum! The best traditional American Chinese food that we have found in the valley. We love this place. They are super friendly and the food is delicious. We haven't ordered a bad dish yet. The triple delicacy, gang pang chicken, mu shu pork and lo mein are some of our favorites, but I am sure that everything is delicious. Our daughter loves their orange chicken (with no spice) and lo mein. We have been a ton of times and we will return a ton more. Yummy! read more

I'm not from around here but I'm glad I stopped in here with my family for Chinese food. I was kinda worried with all the buffets and take outs in the area as I wanted something good. I was not disappointed. Really good hot and sour soup and 4 entrees could easily feed 5 to 6 people. The tea was good as well. The waiters and waitresses were really nice and the resteraunt was clean and comfortable. When I'm back in the area I will be sure to visit again. read more

Super fast delivery and yummy food! We ordered the orange chicken and general tso' s chicken, both very good. The cream cheese puffs were weird as we are used to crab Rangoon but these were literally just cream cheese. Still delicious but odd. Delivery was fast...only waited like 20 mins which was awesome! Would order from them again! read more

The owner Julie really cares about the quality of the food! Family run restaurant, no franchise here, great Chinese Food, a real hidden jem!! read more

Fast....scrumptious...and great price!! I ordered from here by just picking by name lol...glad I did....from phone convo to delivery it was fast and easy....very poliet staff...i will be ordering again!! read more

This food was so good omg I highly recommend the Mongolian beefIf you are desiring an authentic taste this is it. We were visiting from Texas and this was a blessing in disguise Thank you yelp for the recommendation read more

Some coworkers were going to Panda Garden and I asked them to bring me back lunch. I love trying new places. On a Friday when they went, their lunch special was Empress Chicken where you get rice, Empress chicken, what they call an egg roll and a crab rangoon. The only thing I liked about this dish was the rice. I ended up throwing my lunch way. The chicken were nice sized chunks and they were cooked good but the sauce was just down right awful. It was too sweet and has a horrible aftertaste. What they call an egg roll should really be called a spring roll and I don't know if I would call it that? Like the crab rangoon, there is no filling to it. Honestly, those should be left off the plate. I may try another item from here like orange beef which is my favorite but I won't be rushing back any time soon. read more

I eat here so much I'm actually embaressed! This place is amazing, I never liked any form of asian food before I ate here, I always order the same thing..sesame chicken with white rice and crab puffs. I like how tiny the restaurant is and the fact that it is family owned. The owners are so sweet, there is never a wait either. They have really good lunch specials and the food is always fresh. read more

For casual and takeout Chinese food, I like Panda Garden for lunch or dinner. The prices are great, the food is well above average, and the service is lightning quick. My kids like the soups a lot, and the sesame chicken. Not the best ambiance (local TV in the background), but you can't have everything. read more

I tried this place for the first time last week and I was pleasantly surprised. Wasn't sure what to expect based on location, but the food was amazing. The cream cheese puffs were excellent (and even good the next day when I heated up the left-overs). Had the General Tsao chicken which was excellent and the lo mein. I've been searching for a good Chinese place since I moved here and I believe I've just found it. I walked in and placed my order as I wanted to see if they had specials (and they do have lunch specials every day). Took a take-out menu and can now call in my next order. read more

They did a great job putting together individual lunches for a big holiday family bash we had--14 different selections. Well labeled, tasty food as if we had been in the restaurant. We love this for their lunch specials, the Empress Chicken is our favorite thing. Check out their specials for Chinese New Year. We had some outstanding food there last year, many courses and it was very reasonable. The looong string beans were a real standout. The family is always so friendly and they always remember us, it's just a nice local family-owned and run restaurant, we and love supporting them. read more

Good food and a lot of different lunch options. Price is fair for a quick lunch spot and the service is quick.

best place for lunch in that part of town. They have great food and prices. The service is great too. They have my favorite garlic chicken read more

The food is fresh and delicious and the service is great! I always order happy family. The owners are ALWAYS there and so friendly. It's a great neighborhood family dining experience. read more

I ordered from here when I first moved to Phoenix and the food was delicious!! I got the house lo mein and their pot stickers. The delivery wait time wasn't long at all. I will definitely be ordering from them again! read more

Everything we ordered was just...bad. The General Tso's chicken was overly breaded, mushy and barely seasoned. Mongolian Beef lacked flavor and was a bit of a mess. Fried rice was too oily and lacked flavor. Brown rice was over cooked. read more

My girlfriend and I use yelp to find new places to eat and Panda Garden blew us away. Great food and service. She had the orange chicken which we both loved and I had the Mongolian beef w/ lo mein. Which was also perfect. Highly recommended. read more
