    Sesame Chicken

    We ordered delivery through DoorDash, the food was extremely dry and flavorless. I would not recommend to anyone.

    Today I wanted Chinese food, not the typical authentic type, I told myself I wanted the Whitest, most Americanized Chinese food that White people, Hispanics, blacks go and patronize at. And here is the verdict! **Did not Disappoint, Did not Disappoint, Did not Disappoint** This is where I'd go if I went to Bryce Canyon, Zion for the day and came back in town! This is where I'd go if I wanted to sample Historic Hong Kong style Chinese food before China took over the San Gabriel Valley and each town outside of the Coastal China Towns only had 5 Asians in each town. So here I am, in St. George Utah, with a 24 Hours overlay en route to delivering Costco's Kirkland Signature Paper Towels out of Anderson South Carolina ( Your Welcome, you can now search for who manufactures Costco Paper Towels, and it ain't Charmin). So anyways, this restaurant. After getting out of my Uber, I walk into probably what we call a relic-- the signage outside is worn out, it's nowhere located near a main street, but tugged away up hill in the back of a Denny's. As I enter, wow, it's like walking into a Quentin Tarantino Kill Bill time capsule of the 90s, that feeling where you visit Vegas when it had one Chinese restaurant back in the days. Nostalgic! I am greeted by friendly Filipino staff members... Interesting... seated down, and within minutes they take my order, Thai Style Curry Chicken with brown rice and hot and sour soup. Hear me out that's not Chinese food, but ok, I did order the service person's recommendation also: the House Fried Noodles, typically a Cantonese American dish where chop seuy style vegetables, various meats are tossed together in a brown oyster sauce and served on a hot plate. 5 minutes later, everything is served. Talk about efficiency! The Chicken Curry is a blend between Cantonese style and Thai style, and it BLOWS Banana Bay Rowland Heights Panang Curry out of the water! I probably had two servings of rice with this dish. The Fried Noodles Hot Plate, is what some out of state Chinese restaurants call Triple Delight, a mix of broccoli, canned baby corns, water chestnuts, carrots, mushrooms, tossed together with shrimp chicken and beef in a Cantonese brown sauce. And here the interpretation to take it up a notch put them on a sizzling hot plate over Hong Kong Crispy Egg Noodles, and BOOM, fireworks. This here although unauthentic, is what everyone out in Los Angeles should come out and try. It's where the Lakers team members like Robert Horry would sit down and order food such as at the Twin Dragon on Pico Blvd in Los Angeles, and he'd share stories with the old school Cantonese manager there about how Kobe can make any shot he wants. This is what defined America's Chinese Food scene back in the days. Maybe I'm nostalgic, and having worked in various out of state Cantonese run Chinese restaurants in small town America, this is what I'd go to have a meal, if I wanted something more than a PF Chang's and not a low quality China Buffett.

    Beef Broccoli

    We like the food at the panda garden. They offer a variety of Asian foods from all over and the quantity and flavor is always very good. Sometimes they're a little disorganized, but they're always very kind. The food comes out very quickly. We prefer family feast style dining when we come here.

    While waiting for our food to arrive my daughter had finished her drink and notice a roach inside her cup! After showing one of the servirse we walk out and there was another reach on the wall. Needless to say, they are infested!

    War, wonton soup, and cheese Rangoon.

    I can't believe that we had never eaten in this Chinese restaurant! The food was excellent. The service was good. We will definitely be eating there again and again! If you haven't tried it, you need to!

    Crispy Sesame Chicken
    Kelly H.

    Fantastic Asian food in St George Utah! We ordered egg rolls & egg flower soup. Fast, very sweet employees. Phenomenal customer service. The sesame crispy chicken was so tasty and Delicious. And the crispy pad Thai noodles with chicken, beef, shrimp & vegetables was also very good. So glad we found this place on our road trip to Monument Valley!

    A fun restaurant for a Thanksgiving Eve feast.

To be seated, which didn't feel long at all. We sat, did habachi, cook was entertaining, food was good, price seemed reasonable. Check came and we were charged extra for choosing fried rice and noddles. Mind you, menu doesn't show extra charge for this. When cook came he asked, if we'd like friend rice or noodles. No one ever asked if we wanted white rice or brown rice, why????? I asked about the extra charge and server said habachi comes with either white steamed rice or brown rice. Sorry, but I have never been to a habachi spot where the friend rice is an EXTRA charge. Isn't the fried rice part of the show???? This just didn't sit well, it seems like they're trying to sneak this extra charge on you. Server said she would remove it "this time" but not again. Don't worry lady, we won't be back! Be upfront with your extra charges instead of being shady and trying to sneak them in. Also, as soon as show is done bussers and servers are just staring at you so u can get up and leave. Definitely turning and burning. Pick another spot as this place is NOT worth their shadiness.

My husband ordered the Chicken Pad Thai and I ordered the Garlic Chicken & broccoli. We shared an order of Rangoons. If I'm being perfectly honest the food was just ok IMO. I purposely ordered my dish with no sauce bc I don't care for my food to be swim in a sodium, sugar & oil mixture masking whatever flavor the protein & veggies present on their own. I actually WANT to taste them. I didn't expect my mind to be blown by my dish for that reason. I knew what I was getting & honestly my food was very good. The chicken breast was good quality, cooked nicely and cut into small bite sized pieces as was the broccoli. Just what I wanted. Now I DID want to splurge a bit which is why we got the fried stuff too. Now for the not so impressive part. The stuff that was supposed to blow my mind bc it was fried, came with sauce and lots of spice just fell flat. The Rangoons had very little flavor. They were even slightly under cooked it seemed. The corners were the only part that were crispy and the part closest to the middle was barely cooked. Not my fav. I like a very crispy rangoon. Maybe that's just my preference. I sampled my husband's pad Thai, also a bust. Hardly an spice or flavor. He ordered a 3 out of 5 and there was hardly any heat. Maybe my Vegas taste buds have been spoiled or maybe this is a different style of the Thai we're not used to. At any rate I'm only giving it 3 out of 5 stars based on the food itself. The restaurant was in an interesting looking built stone building & plaza and the interior was decorated with a pretty traditional Asian-Thai theme. This place was packed on a Sat night too! The locals must love it. There was a line of people waiting to be seated when we arrived. There are no complaints about the service. We called our order in for pick up. The man who took out order was polite and I believe he was the same host who was greeting people at the door. He was very busy but still gave great service with a smile. Again, this review is not a reflection of him. He was great. The food....just wasn't.

"hmm didn't look like that online and sure looks like typical stir fried noodle.". Took my first bite and yup, tasted like typical soy sauce seasoned noodle dish.... Looking at the basil chicken dish and first thing I noticed was not a single fresh basil leaves in the dish. Tasted the dish and again very blend seasoning with hint of basil flavor. Definitely not like basil chicken or beef dish I ordered from my local Thai or Chinese restaurants back home. Tried the orange chicken. It did have crispy chicken except it was more on the sweet and sour flavor and not orange flavor. Oh well, it is what it is. At least I didn't leave here hungry. I definitely would not be coming here (I mean I don't live here but if I ever pass through here again) and I could not recommend this place.

Great food, ample quantities, superb service and decent prices, plus plenty of parking. Our server, Kate, was outstanding.
