About Little Panda

Little Panda is a Chinese Restaurant located at 523 Havana St in Aurora, Colorado, operating on a "by the scoop" service model. This allows customers to choose the variety and quantity of dishes they desire.

The service at Little Panda is described by one reviewer as friendly. The environment, however, has seen some changes according to a more recent review, which mentions the presence of dusty soda boxes near the entrance, potentially affecting the initial impression. This suggests a possible decline in overall cleanliness or upkeep in the customer-facing area.

As a scoop-style Chinese restaurant, Little Panda's main feature is the ability to customize meals by selecting different dishes. Pricing appears to be around $2.50 per scoop, with variations depending on the specific side or protein chosen. One customer found the food to meet expectations, with a solid volume and better-than-good quality, expressing satisfaction with their visit and intent to return. However, a more recent review expresses disappointment due to perceived smaller portions, higher prices (such as $3.50 for 3 cheese wontons and no drink included with a $13 combo box), and a decline in food quality, with descriptions of tasteless, stale, and dry food that seemed to have been sitting out for an extended period. This suggests potential inconsistencies in food quality and value over time.

Currently, there is no specific promotional information available. Based on the conflicting recent reviews, it's advisable for new customers to be aware of the varying experiences reported. While one customer had a positive experience, another's recent encounter suggests a decline in value and quality, indicating a need for potential diners to assess the current standards for themselves.

Great by the scoop spot. Friendly staff. Food met my expectations; volume solid and quality better good. Glad I stopped in and if I’m in the neighborhood again I’ll pay them a visit. Note: seems to be $2.50 a scoop depending on which side/protein you want.

I used to have such good memories of this place. Now there's soda boxes living by the door as you walk in (with dust on them, meaning they've been there a While), smaller portions, higher prices which no longer offer good value, ($3.50 for 3 cheese wontons?? No more drink included on a $13 combo box??), and a staff that seems like they just no longer care how anything looks or tastes... I ordered anyway, and the food was tasteless, stale, and very dry, as if it had been sitting on their buffet all day long (it's the evening now). I am saddened, because I really used to like this place, and now I won't be back...

Have been coming here since before I moved into the state! Always loved the food, and still do, even with the reasonable price increases its still a cheap place to order from! Thank you for this amazing local restaurant

The food is tasty and the portions are generous. I got the teriyaki chicken, sesame chicken, chow mein, 3 rangoons, and 2 eggrolls for just over $13. Little Panda is a great local spot, better and cheaper than Panda Express.

If you like seafood, this is your place. But make sure everyone in your party likes seafood. It is not worth $20 to someone who can not eat seafood. We would have gone some place different had we known.
