I recently visited Panda Paradise on North Riverside Avenue in Rialto, and unfortunately, the experience was anything but paradise. Upon walking in, the ambiance felt uninviting— tables were visibly dirty, with remnants of past meals scattered around, which left me questioning the cleanliness standards of the kitchen. Given the unsatisfactory environment, we opted for takeout instead. We ordered Fried Rice, Chow Mein, Orange Chicken, and Kung Pao Chicken, hoping to salvage the evening. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to expectations. While it was edible, everything tasted quite ordinary, lacking the bold flavors and fresh ingredients that one typically anticipates from a Chinese restaurant. To top it off, the prices seemed steep for what we received, making it hard to justify the spend. I would love to be able to recommend this place, but the combination of a messy dining area and underwhelming, overpriced food left a lot to be desired. Hopefully, Panda Paradise can work on improving both their cleanliness and culinary offerings. For now, I’d suggest exploring other dining options in the area. Not coming back to this place anytime soon!

I had an exceptional dining experience at Panda Paradise! The ambiance was warm and inviting. The service was top-notch - our server was attentive and rhe food was outstanding, with each dish expertly prepared and presented. The highlights of our meal were the spicy wings, which was spicy and savory. The egg rolls were crispy and delicious, and the fortune cookies were a lovely touch at the end of the meal. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the generous portion sizes. Overall, I highly recommend Panda Paradise to anyone craving authentic and delicious Chinese cuisine. *Favorite dishes:* Kung Pao chicken, beef and broccoli, egg rolls *Price range:* Moderate ($15-$25 per entree) *Will I return?:* Absolutely!
