Panda Express - Ontario

The Bowl has a cup worth of food, not a good value, also the food freshness is inconsistent. Magic is the better value.

When we arrived, there weren't too many people inside. Maybe three families ahead of us, and 2 in the lobby. We went about 6 p.m. on a Tuesday night. The staff isn't very friendly, but they weren't rude either. No Smiles, no small talk. They're just kind of there. For a two-item combo, it was 7.40. But of course shrimp is more. I got the 2 item combo half rice half Chow Mein. I got the orange chicken, which was good, but like any other orange chicken. I also got the Angus beef. That was pretty good. One of those two was very spicy though, I just don't know which one since I was eating both. I have a feeling it was orange chicken though. I'm not a big fan of their chow mein. They're really thin noodles and they were a little bit hard. The rice was pretty good. The portions are pretty small for Chinese food. Basically one scoop of everything, instead of piling it on like the non-chain places do. My husband got the 2 item combo as well, with half and half. He got the mushroom chicken. That was pretty good. And he got the honey walnut shrimp. He said it was delicious. We also got the cream cheese wonton things. Those are pretty good with sweet and sour sauce. But super crunchy. We got two bottled drinks. So with our drinks, 2 number 2 item combos, and two orders of the cream cheese wontons, it was about 27 bucks. Basically you're getting Chinese food like anywhere else for almost double the price and half the serving. While Panda Express is good, I don't think we would be back. I much prefer the little non-chain places with a little bit of better options, serving sizes, and prices.

They didn’t have the food ready so they had me wait in a parking space, they didn’t ask if I wanted any sauces or chopsticks and I didn’t think about it at the ordering speaker, but they instructed me to pull around so I did, when they brought the food out they handed me a bag and ran off, no sauces no chopsticks in the bag and no communication or time to communicate by the runner

I have no teeth from cancer and I was willing to pay extra to have the vegetables steamed a little longer so that I could eat them without teeth. When I explain that to the nice lady I was told I was being rude for a sizing that I was willing to pay and be listened to. I had already informed her that three times previously my wishes had not been followed and I was unable to eat at the same time as my family. Value it for what it's worth. I will not return perhaps they were having a bad day? After the fourth time? who's being rude now? Try living with cancer, my day was blessed anyway. I wish her well in her compassion Journey

This is my second and the last time that I go to this Panda Express. Fried rice had a rotten egg smell, the orange chicken was soggy with no flavor and benjin Beef was 80% vegetables. Avoid this place at all cost!!
