Steam Panda - Chinese Near Me - Wenatchee, Washington

We were starving, and all of our usual places to grab brunch were closed...and then we walked by the Steam Panda storefront and realized that we could get hot, savory bao...it was a great choice. Everyone was super friendly and our food was fast and delicious. It's nice to have homemade soup dumplings, bao, etc so far from Seattle! read more

This place is awesome. They scorpion roll was shaped like a scorpion, seafood soup was amazing, my 8 yr old loved the coconut shrimp, and the steam bao was very good. Overall we were very satisfied. Definitely returning. read more

This place just opened and we wanted to give it a try. First thing we noticed is thr prices. Yikes!! This earned them the two stars right off the bat. We have been to many restaurants like this one. The prices were equal to the high end ones but the food was nowhere near that quality. Wenatchee is growing no doubt about that. But when you charge prices like this in a small town with so many other dining choices your "A" game better be on. This is not that game. It certainly has the potential. read more

Vegan sushi burrito had fresh ingredients and great sauce. Bao and dumplings tasted good, but the cashier warned me they were very small to try to upsell more food... Don't charge entrée prices for appetizers read more

Such a fun place with delicious food. Our kids loved picking items that they have seen on Kung Fu Panda. They thought it was so fun and made for a special family outing. The staff were very friendly as well. read more

Wow! Amazing food and amazing service. Wished I lived here so I could enjoy it more often! We ordered family style- 7 different dishes and they were all amazing! Keep up the great, authentic dumpling craftsmanship read more

went here on a recommendation and glad we did! we had a poke bowl (delicious, fresh), beef shank soup (drank the broth to the bottom), pork bao bun (good flavor and texture), and best of all, the soup dumplings. What a special treat! Staff were very friendly and helpful, too. If we lived in town, we'd be regulars. read more

First of all, I was so excited to see Wenatchee had a steamed dumpling restaurant! However. This restaurant is confusing from the moment you enter. There was no one to great you. The person taking your order was impossible to understand. Not to mention the food is flavorless. Would not recommend. Bummed out. read more

the food is extremely authentic and high quality. what more can you ask for? the ordering is a little confusing at first, but the taste of the food is not. I've been here many times and have nothing to complain about. it's a great spot in Wenatchee. I would highly recommend the scorpion roll! read more

Amazing food. Fast service. Ordered online and was ready sooner than expected. Received notification as soon as was ready. When I picked up the restaurant was very clean, met by staff as I walked in. Very polite and willing to answer all my questions. read more

When we drove by the other day, my wife and I were so excited to see a place touting Bao and hot noodle soup in Wenatchee. We've experienced both in Asia and Seattle, so we made immediate plans to go and have our fill after too long an absence. Much to our disappointment, this was at best, baseline average for these dishes. At worst a middling attempt to fill a promising niche. It's hard to imagine that $40.00 into a basic meal for two without beverages you could still be surprised, but they didn't end there. The lime wedge and bean sprouts appeared anything but crisp and fresh. My soup was long on a less than flavourful beef broth, and short on noodles, beef, or vegetables. The bao did not taste fresh, but instead was somewhat cold and gummy within. We both agreed that we had to try this place, but that we'd never return. The bar for promising new eatery in Wenatchee is set pretty low, but you can always hope a new owner will exceed all expectations. This particular space has a long, and checkered history of failed eateries. If this one is to break that cycle, it will need to do MUCH better than it's predecessors. Oh! Don't even get me started on the horrendously inappropriate for the culture, food, or setting music?!?! Terrible Latin music to accompany my poor meal? Could you drive us out any faster? read more

The steam dumplings were microscopic. I'll never go back., the miso soup was terrible and the Seattle sushi roll was marginal

First of all, the food is good. The service is not. The cashier was rude and made it obvious that he did not want to work there, which is fine whatever. The ordering is kind of complicated but manageable. We got our food and they had given us pork gyoza which our group wasn't sure we ordered, but assumed they just misheard what we ordered. Halfway through all of our entrees, the waitress comes over and says that she had mistakenly given us the wrong order, and that she would bring the check for it. We were shocked that they were charging us food that they mistakenly given us that we did not order when they had plenty of opportunity to notice that they had given us the wrong thing the 4 times she had came over. That is not our fault, we did not order it. That's on them. We went up to pay for the wrong item and it was still full price. They should not have charged us for the item THEY had messed up on, and they did not apologize. I do not recommend eating here after the experience we had today. read more

Tried to order the XLB but they were out. Ended up ordering ramen and a steamed juicy pork bao with a taro boba. Bao was barely warm, soup was ok, Boba... well there was no boba and the cup was packed with ice. I asked where the boba was, they said oh they ran out, and it is a $0.50 charge for boba... The "Boba" tea I ordered for $5.95 apparently doesn't come with boba. Don't worry they didn't upcharge me for something I didn't receive and did not list the upcharge for boba in your "boba"... I can't recommend this. Maybe things will improve in the future but I won't hold my breath. read more

This is easily one of my favorite restaurants in existence. I love everything about it here. You walk in, grab a menu and choose anywhere to sit. Ambiance is always on point, great music playing and really relaxing environment. The menu is large, but don't let that trick you into thinking that some things will be bad. EVERYTHING here is handmade from scratch, never frozen. Highlights from me are the Miso Soup (2$!), and the Tempura Asparagus Rolls. All the food has amazing textures and flavors. One bite and you can tell its all fresh and made from scratch. The owner that I have met (not sure of her name) has been nothing short of kind, caring, and genuine. She spoke to my girlfriend and I briefly, asking us how we enjoyed each thing and taking the time to hear what we had to say. I loved the warmth and love from the staff and the food. 1000/10 in my book. If you are on the fence, jump over it and get in here. read more

See all

Incredibly disappointing. The ramen has zero flavor, we asked for spicy. Grocery store sushi that was fishy, old, and overpriced. The Bao was okay in flavor, but the portions are small. $50 to feed 2 of us and we ended up making an entire separate meal because we were still so hungry. Absolutely not worth the money and the food is terrible. read more

My wife spotted this while we were heading towards our hotel. We decided to give it a try and found it excellent. We shared noodle soup, pan fried dumplings and pan fried bao. They were all good, with the dumplings and soup making the meal. The soup had good depth in flavor, tender beef, and fresh veggies. The dumplings were well stuffed and the sauce that came with them was the star of the show. If we lived here this would be a regular stop. read more

The staff are always happy and friendly and the food is very good and fresh. Great place to eat!

I went here with a friend and I wasn't necessarily wowed by the food but I wasn't either unhappy. I ordered soup dumplings and they were alright I have never had them but they were pretty flat and not very full of soup and a couple of them broke. The seared pan dumplings were pretty good and I didn't see an issue with them at all I would recommend to try this place to try something new. read more

There has been a lot of hype in the valley about this place because it's new. The servers are nice, and the Boba was good, but we were immediately sketched out when our food got to our table. The Bao arrived lukewarm and wasn't flavorful at all. The Ramen was not great. The potstickers tasted like the Costco ones. I've heard from multiple people that they got sick after eating here. I wouldn't suggest it to a friend. I did really enjoy my Boba tea though, so if you stop by just for a quick refreshment I would recommend! It was also very pricey for the amount of food we got. It wasn't filling. This review may seem harsh but I feel pretty disappointed. read more

Great dumplings! It was pretty busy and I was pleasantly surprised to get my food pretty quickly.

Honestly the owners appear very nice, but are mean to there employees. They can't keep anyone. Every-time a Hispanic/Latino come in they ask "how many tacos" it made me feel disgusted. read more

Excited to try but the food was no good. Also served take out in styrofoam. Worst coconut shrimp ever.

Very good ramen and dumplings! The workers were very nice. We will be returning soon!

5 stars serving authentic Chinese noodles. 2 thumbs up! Bubble tea is cool and also a must try.

The food was very good. The place was clean and they had good service to. I recommend eating the dumpling.

Wonderful! Our first visit we ordered some steamed and seared baos, as well as the soup dumplings and milk bobas to drink, everything was hot and delicious! If you stop in you absolutely have to try the soup dumplings if they are available (they have a limited qty day to day), they are amazing! I have had nothing but great experiences from this place so far and I plan on eating here regularly. If you're a fan of this type of food please give it a try! read more

the steamed bao was the worst i've ever had. the soup dumplings, dumplings and bao all tasted worse than what you'd find in a freezer section of the grocery store and that's not even an exaggeration. the bao was a cold meatball in the middle of soggy dough. read more

The boba was good. The food was not. Sorely disappointed with the soup dumplings and the steamed bao. That was all we tried but they tasted like frozen meatballs inside a sticky dough. :( read more

I'm so excited for the menu offerings as it is the only place in town with options like bao, spicy dumplings, xiao long bao and and milk teas. The art on the walls is great, the food arrived in good time and the staff was working very hard. Prices were very reasonable and it is a good location downtown. I will definitely be going back soon and I hope others in town find it as good as I do so it sticks around for a long time. Please check it out! read more

Steam Panda's ingredients are fresh and their recipes terrific. Their Hawaiian Poke Bowl is a combination of traditional and contemporary deliciousness. read more

STEAM PANDA IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!!! If you haven't gone already, you NEED to go!!! The food is phenomenal and the owner and staff are incredible!!!! The Xiao Long Bao we had tonight was the best we've ever had in our life and way better than Din Tai Fung!!! Our favorite dishes are the Xiao Long Bao, Handmade Juicy Pork Steamed Bao, Pan-Seared Pork & Cabbage Dumplings and Bubble Tea!! Thank you Steam Panda for all you do!!!! read more

This place has tasty noodles and buns. The selection is a little limited but everything we tried we liked. I like the pan seared buns more than the steamed ones but they're both excellent. read more

Ordered beef noodle and dumplings, delicious is all I can say. Very casual chill place. Fast service

Very cute place with decently priced food. We hope to see some more vegetarian options on the menu as well as a vegetarian based broth. Will definitely be back! :) read more

Feels good to support a new family owned local business that is doing their best and proving exciting new authentic options to this growing community. read more

Absolutely incredible dumplings and bao! Wenatchee is forever changed with this restaurant!

So happy steam panda opened so close to my work. I go there at least once a week and have had nothing but good experiences. Great food, friendly and helpful owner and staff. 10/10 read more

Soooooooo good! We love going to steam panda. We've tried most things on the menu and they are all excellent. You can tell that they use fresh ingredients in their food as well. The staff is great also!! read more
