I stopped by this Panda Express inside Glendale Mall because my wife wanted to go shopping here. I looked at the other food options in the food court and knew I would get more for the price here. The line wasn't too bad so I was able to put in my order. I went with the plate so I got Chow Mein, kung Pao chicken and orange chicken. They don't give you a lot of portion as I been seeing from other Panda Express location. I don't know if it's like a company policy now. They have a deal plate deal with a drink so you might want to do that option. I like my plate, I just wish they would've give a bigger portion. If you were to dine here, there might be an issue finding a table because there not a lot.

Just had lunch at this Panda Express at the food court. My server was Luis… I ordered half noodles and half steam rice, vegetables and beef broccoli. The presentation of this meal isn’t so appetizing. The server was rude and he didn’t follow what server always says like Welcome to Panda would you to try our entree of the month or something like. Didn’t try to up sell like would you like some egg rolls with your order or soup etc.

It's a nice cozy place to eat with a pleasant atmosphere. The food is standard to all panda express', which means it is excellent fast food no matter which panda express you visit. Their honey Walnut shrimp is great with their rice and noodles. I recommend a bowl.

Scanned my app for a coupon. For some reason it didn’t go through and I didn’t notice until after I paid. So I asked for compensation or if I could somehow still apply it after the transaction. They said they could and took two minutes figuring it out. They offered two dollars in exchange to removing one of my items… that would not be saving any money and be completely pointless use of a coupon. So I would be losing money if I took the money. They claimed it was our fault we did not show our app but we showed the cashier and scanned it. She just simply forgot to press a button I assume. They were very rude about it too, the manager/supervisor Jose. We let them keep their money. It’s fine if we couldn’t redeem the coupon, it’s understandable but there’s no need to be rude about it. Also he couldn’t even figure out how to open the cash register after the transaction, so took two dollars out of his own wallet…

They do not accept Panda's rewards program.

I was turned on to this Americanized Asian restaurant about a year ago and I have to say that its pretty good grub! It's nutritious, filling and gets served up quickly with little fuss. They are limited in choices due to serving-line counter space but the choices you get are very tasty.

HUGE UPDATE! THEY'RE SELLING PHONE NUMBERS!! I just moved to Parker like a month ago, and got calls just now from a senior living center trying to advertise to me. Exactly three companies have gotten my phone number and know I live in Parker now: Amazon, American Express, and CAFE CHINA!! Not even my leasing office has my number, they have my husband's. They busted themselves by process of elimination! Don't buy here unless you want your info sold!!! As for the service here: Upon pickup, a very terse lady asked me for my phone number, from far behind the counter. I could not hear her, she was not polite. A more polite man found the food and took my payment, he was chill and kind. The lady needs to understand that he can NOT compensate for her, and maybe just stay away from the counter. As for the food: The dumplings are nice, and they were the only thing. That's the best thing I can say. I had an order of orange beef, chicken lo mein, dumplings and egg rolls. I picked it up at the time indicated on my order, and let me tell you: by the time I got there, the orange beef was absolutely soggy and sodden, all the way through. It is downright mushy. Not a single iota of crispness. I believe it was cooked well, as it tasted well prepared (not good though, for other reasons) but they very much need to avoid MASSIVELY over-estimating the ready time, to the point it ruins dishes. Additionally, it is severely too sweet. I know this is always a risk when I order anything from an American Chinese place, but this is one of the worst offenders I've had in a long time. The sauce is basically concentrated syrup. Let's put it this way, there were actual orange pieces, which is commendable, but I was using them to CLEAN MY PALETTE of the sauce. I'm hormonal-hungry right now, and did not finish the dish. My husband got chicken lo mein and allowed me a few bites. But... here's a picture of what it looked like coming out of the box. They stuffed it down and it was stodgy and congealed. It does taste better than the orange beef, and I usually scoff at reviews that say things are bland, especially Chinese, but this was indeed bland. Chinese food that is simple and well prepared is a delight. This was 90% cheap noodles and uninspired sauce. The wok hay is just not there and that's a make or break for me with lo mein. It IS a simple dish, it's supposed to be. I make it better myself and I'm by no means Chinese. Dear owners: You should try these two condiments. Dark soy and shao xing wine. Why are they in my kitchen but not yours? The worst: My steamed rice had a spot of sauce in it, as if a used spoon was used to scoop it. I was going ot give a 2-star, but this is what you did to get my 1. Cross contamination is not okay. Not ever. Period.

We have eaten at the CC since it opened. Always have found the food to be fresh and well cook. One of the best I have ever been to. Especially after the reopening from the summer break. Every thing we had was kicked up a notch. The rice, soup and main courses. Seamed to even better than I remember Keep it up. P.s. when is Tony coming back?

Nasty! Now I understand why the buy one get one! Management please read your reviews! The egg drop soup was the consistency of snot! Egg rolls were old tasting & didn’t even crisp up in the oven the next day. Tasteless . The rice was bland , so was dumplings. We travel & ordered from nearby. Uber Eats Delivery was quick. We do not recommend this restaurant . Food went into trash. I saw the wrong reviews before ordering or we would have never ordered from here .

Ordered takeout. The orange chicken was way too sweet and did not have a good flavor. The menu said it was spicy and it was not in the slightest. The shrimp fried rice was bland and the shrimps had a taste of freezer. The brocolli garnish was inedible (i recognize its garnish but i usually eat it) The fries were soggy and unsalted but the shape was cute. Do not recommend.

Today I had a very bad customer experience after years of coming to this Panda location. This is not the first time. I thought they were going to get better, but their customer service and quality of the food is in decay.

I asked to use the restroom,& guess what there was no hassle 😀,so I was more than happy to purchase a combo plate and boy! was it delicious. The opening manager & his staff are absolutely amazing 🤩, suggested things for me to try& was spot on. I will be returning again & again.... yummy 😋

It’s always fun to try something new! The only other time I had this was during a connection at Kunming airport, but it’s a nice change up if you’re in the mood for noodles. I like the fish but the beef and pork are also good. I also liked all broths. It stays hot for quite a while so don’t expect to be able to scarf this down. Pretty much all “locals” in here so you know it’s legit.

Hearty and warm bowl of noodles. The soup comes up while still boiling! The service was fairly quick as well. Some are commenting about the lack of flavour and that's true! But you don't come to a rice noodle place looking for a flavour punch. You're just looking for a light and wholesome bowl of noodles. And that it is! Nothing to complain about. Had a relaxing and good meal.

I really enjoyed this dim sum restaurant! All the dishes we ordered were tasty, fresh, and notably free from MSG, leaving us comfortable and not overly thirsty after the meal—a big plus. Food Highlights: The steamed chicken was tender and flavorful. The dim sum varieties like shumai and Baked BBQ Pork buns were delicious and well-prepared. The vegetables tasted fresh and complemented the other dishes nicely. Service: The service is friendly and responsive once you get their attention, but there are not many staff members circulating, so you might need to approach them for assistance. Still, their warmth and responsiveness made up for this. Atmosphere: The restaurant atmosphere was clean and welcoming, though slightly chilly due to a lack of HVAC heating. Wearing an extra layer of clothing easily solves this minor inconvenience. Overall, a great place for dim sum, especially for those sensitive to MSG or looking for a healthier dining option. Just remember to dress warmly!

Went in this evening with my partner and only ordered three items, first item(steamed pork buns) came in right away but then second item (sweet and sour chicken) took a while and finally the chow main never came. At this point me and my partner had been waiting for almost 40 minutes and not once did the waitress update on the status of the food. Not to mention a party of 4 came in like 25 minutes after us and were being attended and receiving their food on a timely manner. At the hour mark we told the waitress just to give the bill for the two items, Paid and left. There are better options in downtown San Mateo with outstanding customer service, this place ain’t it, stay away.

Ordered a small pepper steak and got 2.5oz of beef and 6.5oz of onions. I have ordered this before and it has never been just all onions. I called to ask about it and was told that's what it is, if you want more beef you have to pay for more. I have been coming here for years but this is the last time, with the poor customer service and the decreasing food quality.

This place is one of the best around. The garlic chicken is the best anywhere around. People whining about portions when Hunan has barely raised their prices in a decade when their costs I’m sure have more than doubled. Go start your own restaurant so petty people can give you 1 star and cry on a review.

Just want to thank Panda Express for never delivering my orders on time or giving me decent portions till I decided to cook even if tired after work! I made my own version of their dish and it tastes so amazing! Took less time than those 1hr 30min waits for one plate to be delivered! Thank you guys for the inspiration! Turning lemons into lemonade! 🍋

No over the counter samples is whack. Granted it was kind of busy when i went around noon but they made it sound like they don’t do it at all. I wanted to try the new bourbon chicken. Anyway besides that. I got a bigger plate half noodles and half super greens. Noodles were super dry! My entrees were teriyaki chicken (they didn’t even cut) just gave me a big fatty chicken thigh. I had to pick it up and bite into pieces of it. The beef and broccoli had mushy beef, broccoli was good and my orange chicken surprisingly had some spice but was good too. I got an egg roll and spring roll which the egg roll was the highlight of the meal. Update. Came back for redemption. How do you not have teriyaki sauce for the chicken teriyaki at noon?!? Service was slow for all the food to be done. I asked for a bigger plate too and did not get it. I’m glad cause there was no sauce for the chicken 😭😭

We stumbled in this restaurant because Golden Palace was closed ( WEDDING PARTY). THANKFULLY, Cheung Hing restaurant was there for our hungry appetites. The place is newly renovated, looking brighter and very inviting. The menu was extensive, entrees with Cantonese menu specialties. Highlights of our orders were the Barbecue platter, eggplant with shredded pork clay pot style and many more. The food entrees were great, authentic Cantonese food. The restaurant did not disappoint. The prices were reasonable, way cheaper than Golden Palace. Service was excellent, our server was attentive. Cheung Hing Restaurant got its groove back! Keep up the great work and customers will keep on coming 👍 😀 👌!

Order bbq pork takeaway. It was a bit tough and fatty and sweet on the sauce. It tasted alright after heating them up.

Paid $16 for Kung Pao Beef instead they gave me Kung Pao Onions. They maybe placed 3 little pieces of beef with a pound of onion and celery. I’m paying $16 and they still didn’t add beef. Such a rip off

Only This much for $10!! Got a “large” shrimp fried rice assuming it would be enough for 2 people. Got it and see that the box is half empty :/ when I asked if they could put some more, she said that’s the standard amount and that shrimp is expensive (there were 6 pieces of shrimp).
