Food was way too expensive the egg rolls had a funny aftertaste our family did not enjoy this meal at all. The place appeared to look kind of dark and dirty I will not go to this place anymore no thank you read more

I'm a fan of Panda Kitchens history, they've been in Carson for almost 20 years... but their food makes me wonder how they've managed to pull off such an impressive feat. I've eaten here a handful of times and have always been disappointed. The staff is friendly, service is prompt, the prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere is nice, but the food is some of the lowest quality Chinese food I've eaten. I do not recommend eating here with so many other great options available in the Carson City area. read more

Panda Kitchen - The sweet and sour chicken had way too much sauce. I couldn't even taste the chicken! Look at the plate, just swimming in sauce. - Chinese Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

The food was absolutely delicious. The best Chinese food I've had in years. The portions are huge and the service was great. The sweet and sour pork was fantastic. Anytime I want Chinese food this is where I will go . read more

The serving size was no more than one large table spoon and the rest was fried rice. WAY over priced for such scant serving. Will NEVER RETURN. Go to China East instead where the serving size is comparable to price. read more

Discgusting food. Sorry to have to say. I went in for the new Vietnamese menu offered as of 8/1/21. Please do not bother. No self respecting Vietnamese person would claim this greasy food as their own. I had to throw my dinner away. #2 Fresh spring rolls #18 Beef sauteed served over noodles with lettuce and pickled onion ... vegetables? bottled peanut sauce? Please, do not wast your money on this very disappointing food. read more

Excellent service and great food. So many favorites, but the crab rangoon is the best.

I have been eating here since I was a kid. I tried to stick it out after Steve sold it but it's just gone so far down hill it makes my head spin, The food is not even close to the same quality it once was, Bottom line there expensive and not satisfying, they are no better than China east at this point so save your money and go there. I'm disgusted by what u call egg rolls quit being cheap and bring back the old ones!!! And only a fool would take royal shrimp off the menu!!!! read more

Took the wife last night and was disappointed :-( Service was slow, how slow? So slow that when the food got to us it wasn't hot but barely warm. Walnut shrimp wasn't crispy, it was soggy and yep, you guessed it barley warm! The only dish hot was the pork chow mien which was above average. Hope the owners will read and correct these issues! read more

Under new management as of fall 2019. We loved it before and we love it even more now. Awesome food, friendly service, massive portions, easy parking. Dinner specials are our favorites, come with soup, egg roll, fried shrimp, fried rice, and noodles. Clean restaurant, big comfortable booths, classic kitschy decor. Our favorite restaurant in Carson! read more

Service was slow and not very warm or welcoming. They weren't busy and had two servers so that wasn't an excuse for the slow service. The appetizers tasted like they were fried in old oil. Although the Sweet and Sour Chicken was slightly better than what we experienced last week at another restaurant the Kung Pao was alright. We had to flag down our server a couple of times as she never came by to see if we needed anything and when we did get her attention she forgot our request promptly and we had to ask again. All in all, not an experience we will be repeating any time soon. read more

I used to LOVE Panda Kitchen under the past owner. Ever since ownership changed, I have given it chance after chance. Every time the quality gets worse. It's just not like it used to be, and that is such a bummer. Bad quality meats, changed many recipes-so it tastes like all other Chinese restaurants. Under Steve's ownership it really stood out, now it's as good as Panda Express, if not worse. Bummed! I won't be back. read more

From 5 to 3 stars. Went back for the first time after owner decided to sale the place and it sucks now. Customer service is very bad. Lady had me wait for my order and OK that's fine but brought me chow neon instead of fried rice. It was to go so I'm glad I checked my box. She did not apologize or anything. She did not except her mistake. They no longer serve seafood. Will not be returning at all. The vibe is different in there to. read more

Panda Kitchen - This lady gives really bad customer service. Got my order wrong and did not even apologize or acknowledge that she had messed up. - Chinese Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

The service was great, but the food had zero flavor. Tasted like oil and water. We had high Hope's but even China Express tastes better.

What happened? You used to be so delicious, you used to have generous portions and you used to serve Moo Shi pork already wrapped and ready to eat. Instead, we received smaller take-out boxes, (same price of course) Wor Wonton soup that was mostly cabbage with 3 pieces of pork and 2 wontons, and Moo Shi that wasn't put together. Totally disappointed! Also, no fortune cookies, soy sauce or any extra goodies like every time before. Was it because it was on Saturday night? Are you under new management again? Different cook? Whatever the issue, I will be spending my $50 elsewhere. :( read more

This place has always been good. I've eaten there at LEAST over fifty times, because it was my favorite chinese food restaurant in town. I felt it was very authentic, not americanized. Americanized is peas and carrots and grease. Okay they do use carrots in their soup but they're cut very nicely and well done. The staff has always been very friendly and polite. Steve is very very cool. I've never had any problems with the staff, and they always remembered my favorite dishes when I came in. The place is really clean, and has a great eating environment, the food is great, and the tea is wonderful. If indeed it did go out of business, it would be a horrible shame. I miss the place alot. read more

Very good food. Nice place to bring a date. Be careful of parking. Cars seem to be coming and going in all directions.

I gave Panda Kitchen 1 star only because I couldn't give it a Zero! We used to love this place when Steven owned it. Now, it's blah. I ordered General Chicken and Vegetable Fried Rice. The General Chicken was bland, no flavor, no heat. The Vegetable Fried Rice had NO vegetables. Unbelievable but true! We WON'T be going back. read more

Yum! My husband and I were looking to try a new Sushi place in Carson, after frequenting the usuals, and decided to stop in Panda Kitchen and Sushi. We were overwhelmingly surprised with how fresh and good their sushi bar was! We had an experienced and personable sushi chef that made some of the best sushi we have ever had. The lunch special can't be beat at $16.95 for all you can eat and I highly recommended the 49er's hand roll! read more

Too expensive for what it is. I was there to get take out and they were very nice, but got my order slightly wrong. That wasn't a huge deal, but the quality of the food was not great. Literally I would rank Panda Express better. Would not recommend. read more

well..since it has been under a new management ...the food is really good I ordered orange peel shrimp and it was very good and very crunchy...chow mein was good too. .I will definitely come back.... read more

Food is fresh! Sushi great price! Services 5 stars would recommend this places to all my friends and family

Don't waste your time. Everything had zero taste. Deluxe chow mein had like zero veggies in it. My crab rangoons were tiny and put on a bed of lettuce for take out so they were nice and soggy by the time I got home. There is much better in Carson and I will just go there next time. read more

Lunch with the boss to go style. He had chinese vegetables, white rice and egg roll. I had special chow mein with pork fried rice and won ton. So much food I was able to share! Totally delicious and great price! read more

Team BunnyRanch used to go there every sunday night and loved it. We had not been there in a while since they close on sundays, I took madam suzette for her favorite Asian chicken salad, its was super and way cheap! like $6.95, I had the Egg flower soup and we shared some Won tons, we walked out full and happy for $12, WHAT A BARGAIN. I support small biz and the owner Steve is a great hard working guy, I LOVE HIS TV ADS, NO MSG!! The fresh orange at the end is a nice touch. read more

We had not visited Panda Kitchen for a little while, but we ordered take out last night and it was absolutely terrible. I asked my husband if Steven was there. He said no, he didn't see him or his Wife. I said that was very unusual, as Steven and his Wife always oversaw every single dish, before it was ever served!!! So on further investigation I found out Steven and his Wife sold Panda Kitchen to another couple... OH NO!!! Sorry, but the food is absolutely nothing compared to when Steven and his Wife owned it. It has gone to the dogs!!! Our dog liked it, but he will eat anything!!! The chicken and shrimp were so tough you could hardly chew and swallow them, the egg rolls were greasy and tasteless and their great hot/sour soup also has gone bye-bye too. This was the very, very best Chinese food anywhere around, but the key word is WAS!!! Never had a bad meal in all the years Steven and his Wife were the owners. We were customers of his, since he first opened, almost 28 years ago!!! This business will be lucky to stay in business now!!! For us, it's so long Panda Kitchen, we will miss the great chinese food you used to serve!!! Miss Steven and his lovely Wife!!! UPDATE: After writing this bad review it got even worse. Were trying to eat some of the stir fried rice and we found a 6 inch long sliver of metal in our food!!! Yes, A 6 inch piece of metal!!! Now, we are reporting them to the health dept!!! Photo of metal included!!! A visit to Panda Kitchen may now cause a medical emergency trip to the E.R.!!! Stay far, far away if you value your health!!! read more

Panda Kitchen - The 6 inch sliver of metal found in Panda Kitchen's Stir Fried Rice!!! - Chinese Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

We ordered a take-out feast; basically half the menu came home with us. Maybe it would have been better a little fresher because we ended up with greasy noodles, questionable meats, bland vegetables, and in general, not the best Chinese food. The sesame beef, however, was sweet and tasty, however Americanized. In general that may be the problem: there's no taste for authentic or traditional Chinese food in the area. I understand a certain amount of customer loyalty because the food's not at all revolting, it's just... I've had better. I'll give it another go, maybe eat in, and hope for a better experience. It's not your fault, Panda Kitchen, I've just had better. read more

I haven't been here in 8 years but I knew I wanted to stop by when I was in Carson yesterday. Now knowing that the establishment has changed ownership explains some of the changes I saw. I ordered my staple of shrimp with lobster sauce but the shrimp was not as big and succulent as I had remembered although the sauce was just as great. My MIL had some chow mein that was passable and my preschooler had the pot-sticker appetizer. The breading to that tasted off as did my egg roll that came with my meal. Flyers outside advertised sushi but I didn't see that on the menu nor were we handed a separate menu for that. We had come after 3 PM, well into the hand-the-customer-a-dinner-menu hour. My tea was also extremely bitter and required a sugar packet; unusual for me. Our meals had a bland fried shrimp that tasted pre-frozen, the off-tasting egg roll and egg drop soup that was tasty. I think it's time to find a new Chinese restaurant for me to enjoy when I go to Carson. read more

Had dinner here last night and found out the owners have changed. Steven and his wife are gone and the quality of the food is not what it used to be. I also believe we were over charged for our dinner but paid the bill and left. We won't be back. Drove in from Yerington to eat there as we have since Steven opened in 1986. Will eat local from now on. read more

I've been coming to Panda Kitchen for over 20 years. Went today for a pick-up order. FUBAR Apparently, there are new owners. While the kitchen staff in the back appeared to be the same, the husband and wife in the front of the house could not accurately take my order even after several attempts. The have added a sushi counter, cramped and no atmosphere but I'm not ready to try that. Got my food home--not what was ordered. I think I'll look for a new Chinese place. read more

Fast food prices but restraunt quality service, food, and environment. Stopped here passing through on vacation. Was looking for a cheap fast food place on Yelp and thought I messed up. We were greeted by the owner in the parking lot, we enter to a very nicely decorated restraunt where we were accompanied by a hostess to choose a table. We were served excellent soup as an appetizer, red tea, and the main dish itself as a lunch special for $8/each. The food was very good and the waitress helped us choose our dishes and gave us an assortment of sauces to try with our egg rolls. I was even surprised to find the bathroom to be nicely decorated and of course clean. Was extremely satisfied with the restraunt, my only complaint is that I live so far away. read more

I consider myself somewhat picky when it comes to good Chinese food. I like my rice fluffy, the veggies fresh, and my chow mein flavorful and non-greasy. Panda Kitchen accomplished all of the above and then some! The pork in the fried rice and chow mein was lean and flavorful. I tried my friend's cashew chicken and it was terrific as well. The restaurant was very cozy, clean, and the service was good. And something you don't see much anymore is the chef (owner?) coming over to check on how we enjoyed our meal. Kudos to Panda Kitchen! read more

Meh. Friendly and fast service, but the food was mediocre. I had the orange chicken which had a lot of garlic on it. Those just don't mix well, in my opinion. The water tasted terrible, which made the tea taste terrible. Not a fan. read more

My favorite place to eat Chinese food in Carson! Whenever I pass through the Carson City from Lake Tahoe, Panda Kitchen is where I must stop by to fill my Chinese food craving. Great food, and great service! Family style portions and can feed a hand full of people. Love this place! read more

Great food, all around very good authentic cuisine. The generals chicken is the best!!! read more

Panda Kitchen - Great food. - Chinese Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

See all

Long time business- good food and good service. While perhaps not "authentic" Chinese food, it is authentically American Chinese food. We love the Wor Won Ton soup. read more

My meal at panda was a major disappointment. Soup was not eatable, smelled terrible. Shrimp in lobster sauce was ok but sauce was broken and looked bad. Sweet and sour pork was burned. Total cost $29 - I have never walked away without paying but I did think about it - will never go again read more

Secret Family Recipe????? Well you had lousy cooks in your family. I spent most of my life traveling all over the world and this one of the farthest from traditional chinese food I have ever experienced. We don't have many choices in Carson City but there are several better than this. Won't be back. read more

Love, love, LOVE it! We moved away from the Carson area for seven years and seriously one of the things we most looked forward to is coming back to Panda Kitchen. I have yet to eat anything there that I haven't loved. I stick with things I normally like, so I'm never surprised or disappointed with something new. But I've tried at least 10 different dishes and they are ALL delicious. My favorite dish by far is simply their deluxe fried rice. Yum. Steve and his wife are the best too. It will be a sad day when they retire. read more

Great food and very fair prices. Everything was very clean and everyone there was extremely nice. Will definitely be back.

New owners equals . poor service, waiter hard to understand and harder to order food from. Ordered simple dlx rice dish and have had digestive problems for two days. One worker was cleaning under fake plants while I dined exposing me to dirt and dust. Not the same place. Horrible experience read more
