Panda Express

Clean restaurant, delicious food, friendly and no msg!

I love Panda Express. I do. I love that I can go to one down the street or one a thousand miles away, which I did, and the food I order tastes the same. I typically eat at the one close to home so will say about this one that it is impressive how clean it is. Now there are times it may be a little messier than others because of a rush, but generally it is very well kept. The food is always tasty and the staff are nearly always very nice and friendly. The only inconsistency is in the amounts you receive which sometimes feels like you've sorely overpaid. And be wary - there is often a long line which you have to step through to actually get in line and that is just poor layout design. But, a long line to me means this is a place filled with folks who, like me, feel the food is worth the wait.

Your standard run of the mill Panda. Waited an extra 5 minutes for fresh beef and broccoli. No complaints on the food quality. Received what we expected.

The branch in S. Ranch in Antioch, CA is the best so far as other branches we tried. Met the manager, named Daniel. He's quite a guy who himself is a cook or chef also overseas operations. We were very impressed by the way he runs the kitchen.
The food is very warm and crispy delicious. Am not a Panda Express eater but I loved it on first bite. Simply delicious and not overwhelming or overpowering. I did not have the usual headache and back of the neck pressure whenever I eat Chinese food full of msg. Come and try this branch and you' ll be glad you did. Have noticed also there are a lot of people eating there, young and old.

Didn't dine in, however the food was great service was fast and polite. Nice large dining area with plenty of tables. And of course, no review is complete without the bathroom report.
Men restroom was very clean and well maintained. Did not use the women restrooms!
