    I've given the new owners plenty of chances. This time, I decided to dine in instead of getting takeout to see if the quality had improved. Unfortunately, the soup was terrible, filled with gristly meat, and the broth tasted like water rather than chicken. They barely gave any sizzling rice. I didn't even eat the soup. My son said the buffet was decent and ate it, but to me, everything looked unappetizing. I'm done. This was the last chance for the new owners to make things better. Sadly, you can't get sizzling rice soup at any other restaurant in Tehachapi. For really good food, I have better luck in Palmdale or Santa Clarita. 6/9/24

    Food was ok. I went to use the woman's restroom and the hydraulic arm that is supposed to slow down the extra heavy door did not work. I heard the door coming too fast and reach behind me to try and slow it down. Instead it caught my fingertips in the door. I am brining this awareness before some child opens the door and gets hurt.

    Smallest serving I've ever had from any Chinese restaurant. Most of it was hard carrots and veggies. My soup only had 2 wontons.

    All the veggies!!

    Plant based options on buffet! Broccoli, green beans, eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, cabbage, mushrooms, tofu....works for me! Some of these were taken from the meat-based dishes, broccoli taken from the beef & broccoli. The meat-eaters should be happy with the remaining meat-to-vegetable ratio. Red bean sesame balls for dessert. Decent meal overall.

    Food overcooked, had a taste of dirty dishes. Service was pleasant and didn't cost too much for two buffets but we won't be back.

    Panda Express in Tehachapi, CA, is always our go-to stop when traveling to and from Las Vegas…read more Every visit has been consistently excellent. The associates are friendly, pleasant, professional, and genuinely helpful. The food is always fresh, with crisp vegetables, tender teriyaki chicken, and generous, fair portions. It's obvious the team takes pride in the quality of what they serve. This location has never disappointed us, which is why we make it a point to stop whenever we're passing through. It's a great example of how a fast-food restaurant should be run. Kudos to the store manager and the entire team for consistently delivering outstanding food and service. The Panda Express founders should be proud to have a location that represents the brand so well.

    We did not have a good experience at all! We dined in. I ordered the string bean chicken. There was…read morethe bottom of the bowl scraping left in the bowl which was mostly green beans. The gal started to give me that on top of my rice and I said I'd rather wait for some freshly made. She rolled her eyes at me. When the fresh batch was put out, she put barely a scoop on my rice. I said that's it? She says yes, one scoop. There was barely 5 little scraps of chicken pieces - it was mostly green beans. My bf ordered kung pao chicken which he had to wait to be made cause the bowl was empty. I was halfway done with eating my food before his order was given to him - barely a scoop of kung pao - mostly veggies and those red peppers you pick out anyways. They must be using a smaller scoop. We paid $26.85 which included one large drink and we both left there hungry, disappointed and wishing we would have gone down the street to Taste of Siam where we would have received better food and better portions. We won't go back to this Panda Express again.

    Was looking for a Vietnamese restaurant since I was craving pho and came across this place. It's…read morelocated in a small shopping plaza with plenty of free parking. Walking in, they had plenty of booths and tables that can accommodate both small and large groups. You order before you sit down, and they also have a self-serve water station. We tried the Egg Rolls (3 pieces) and Dumplings (5 pieces) for appetizers, and for our main meals we ordered the Beef Stew Soup and the Glass Noodle Chicken Soup. The egg rolls and dumplings were crispy and flavorful, and the sweet and sour dipping sauce paired well with both. I actually thought I had ordered the beef pho, so I was surprised when the beef stew came out but that was completely my mistake. It ended up being a pleasant surprise because it was hearty, full of flavor, and reminded me a lot of sopa de res. The Glass Noodle Chicken Soup was much lighter, with a clean, comforting broth that made for a great contrast to the rich beef stew. Both soups were generously portioned. The customer service was friendly, and the food came out fairly quickly. Overall, I had a great experience and look forward to coming back to try more items from their menu.

The restaurant was clearly overcrowded, and instead of handling the situation professionally, the owner became rude and disrespectful. The owner repeatedly complained that they were overwhelmed and couldn't handle additional guests. Rather than providing good customer service or communicating respectfully, he turned customers away and made us feel unwelcome. Eventually, we were asked to leave despite there being available seating when we arrived. I understand that restaurants can get busy, but there is no excuse for poor customer service or rude behavior toward paying customers. If a business cannot manage being at full capacity, it should have a better system in place rather than taking frustration out on guests. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I would not recommend this restaurant.

I love the beautiful old world decor with the dark rich wood and the beautiful murals that they have kept as well. It's so nice to know one of Bakersfield's traditional restaurants has been kept in tact. Tony was our awesome server this evening. We each started with the tasty wonton soup. Warm and soothing with tender wantons & vegetables in as rich broth. We had the sweet and crunchy walnut shrimp, so mouthwatering! We also offered the dumplings in red sauce. My companion ordered the red sauce on the side. I actually prefer the dipping sauce. So we both got to have it our way.

After we passed the homeless man drinking the green algae water outside, all was good from there. It was 102 degrees when we arrived, and soon as you walked in the delicious cold air hit us. This place is big! Perfect for big groups. We were greeted right away, and our drinks brought to us quickly There are so many options to choose from. I always love a good bowl of sizzling rice soup, so had to get that. My hubby ordered the spicy crispy beef, and I got the coconut shrimp. The crispy beef was so tender and amazing flavor. My shrimp wasn't white cream I expected on the top, it was a different color. I'm not sure why, but I didn't care it was delish. The portions are large, we will be eating the leftovers for a couple days. The owner was so nice, too. Don't let the outside fool you. Go check it out! 8/17/26
