Panda King always delivers exceptional service! When we're in the mood for some cheap Chinese food,…read morePanda King is our go-to. Now, when I say cheap Chinese, I mean like fair pricing, family owned, none of that frilly stuff. What you see is what you get, that's how I like it! The restaurant itself is pretty basic, a few tables inside, but not much decor. We always do take-out and order a lot of it. The food is what you'd expect for cheap Chinese, it's good and it's comforting. We've been here many times and it's always a solid choice for a cozy night in. We visited last night and with our massive order, came extra wait time. We arrived slightly after pickup time and had to wait a few extra minutes after. They gave us free donuts and some pastries. That was such a nice surprise! The customer service here is always welcoming and polite. My husband loves that they give and take with both hands, a sign of respect that we only see here at Panda King. Panda King will always be our preferred choice when it comes to comforting Chinese food. Not sure what to get? Try their fried dumplings, crab rangoon, Kung Pao Chicken, and Singapore Mei Fun!

I'd think for a Chinese dinner meal you'd have at least five. They were not huge shrimp either! My wife had a nearly meal but with chicken. It was good, plenty of chicken and vegetables. Their egg rolls are included with the combo and were good too. Our food order was ready when we got there, about 15 minutes. Aside from the lack of shrimp, it was all a good typical Chinese food experience. We will likely order elsewhere but didn't have many options for Chinese food on a Monday night. We really like a different nearby small family-owned Chinese restaurant at Wakefield Commons but they are closed Mondays.

My one star is going to be someone elses 3 to 5 star. Look, I get it it. If you eat Taco Bell, Little Caesars, Arbys, et cetera, and you actually look forward to doing that, then I would recommend you eat here. There's plenty of goopy sweet sauces to drown-out everything that you can throw down. You can get fried gross chicken with syrup all day and pour sweet and sour over your friend rice and dunk your fried egg roll in duck sauce and chase it down with a 20oz soda. If you don't eat gross food, or you don't look forward to eating gross food, then skip this place. It's just another run-down "Chinese" place that serves slop to anyone who is willing pay for it. Bon appetit!

They will serve you food on flimsy paper plates and make you eat with the cheapest plastic utensils that money can't buy. You can't even order a simple cup of water. You have to buy water. 2. The food is bland and lacks any Chinese flavor. Not even chili oil makes my General Tso's chicken taste passable. The food is chopped so large that it is hard to eat with the plastic forks. My wife ordered Hibachi Chicken, which looked like chunks of boiled chicken. We thought Hibachi Chicken meant that they cooked it on a Hibachi grill but there wasn't a single grill mark to be found. The sauce was bland and the 'Yum Yum' sauce was not that 'Yum' Drive a little farther and find a Chinese restaurant that serves Chinese food.

My BF ordered the fried calamari and shrimp lo mein no veggies. The crab Rangoon's were nice and crispy and the crab filling is so flavorful I wanted more. The shrimp and lobster sauce is just as flavorful and absolutely delicious and the portion is huge for the price and well worth it at that. My BF didn't care for his fried calamari he said to was too tough and mostly breading. He did enjoy his shrimp lo mein and that too was a huge portion as well. Even with him not wanting the vegetables they did not skimp on the shrimp. The customer service was good nothing special since we were getting our food to go. You can dine in as well the restaurant is very clean and plenty of tables and chairs. I will for sure come back when I am in the area. It was very hard to find good Chinese food in Nc and this spot fit the bill.
