What Customers Say About Panda Express
Boardwalk BBQ at Knott's Berry Farm receives mixed reviews. Many enjoy the tri-tip, rotisserie chicken, and boysenberry BBQ sauce. However, some customers have experienced dry meat, cold mac and cheese, inconsistent quality, and long lines.

Panda Express Buena Park Reviews
Definitely a stop on the map. They have this new thing the macaroni and cheese loaf. It has bacon pineapple corn other things it's really good. I have the all-season dining pass so I've been here a couple times and it's worth it.
First time here, food was really good. I got rotisserie chicken, wifey got sausage and potatoes, and the kids got ribs. Everything was really tasty and delicious. Price was above average,but well worth it..
Wow! The food here is amazing. The second you walk in the door you can smell the BBQ. I got the chicken wings with a side of cornbread and Mac n cheese. It is on the expensive side but the service was fast and there is plenty of seating outdoors.
Honestly a great replacement of the previous location. A lot more customization options for your meal and a heck of a lot more than the old pizza/burger/fries. They’re still pretty new, so portions and platings are changing a bit day to day (I visited on day 1 and they hadn’t yet priced Cornbread a la carte) but this is a great place! Also, if you have a Season Pass, this is on the dining plan 🎉🎉🎉 They also have Boysenberry BBQ sauce!!!

The lines are terribly long beyond reason to get your food. However, once we got the food the experience was great. The gourmet berry salad was amazingly fresh and topped generously with assorted sweet, ripe berries! So light and healthy. The beef brisket was juicy, the corn was average, but the corn muffin was scrumptious. Very good for theme park counter service food.
Lines were short and quick at the hour I went. Meatballs had boysenberry bbq sauce…mild and good. Mac&cheese wasn’t very creamy. Cornbread was soft and fluffy. Numerous drink options including a Freestyle machine. Wish I had found this place earlier on my trip.
The Tri-tip was well seasoned. The meatballs were a little dense but were full of flavor. The mashed potatoes had a good texture. The seasoned veggies were well cooked too. The spicy bbq had a really good kick! The boysenberry bbq sauce was not as sweet as I was expecting and was yummy! The mac and cheese was delicious. The cornbread was dry but had pretty good flavor. For being a cater style restaurant most of the food was pretty good!
Very delicious Mac n cheese and tri tip. Very good deal if you get the meal pass for the day. The meat was pretty juicy and tender
This is my favorite place to eat in Knott's Berry Farm that takes the food pass. The Tri Tip and the Rotisserie Chicken are really good. Also the Boysenberry BBQ sauce is really tastey.
Took my partner in crime to Knott's for Thanksgiving. We had the teriyaki steak, meatballs, turkey sandwich, side of veggies, and the kids mac and cheese with potato wedges. I'd skip the meatballs but the steak and sandwich was yummy. Mac and cheese was a bit cold, but my wingman was happy. Would return.
This restaurant inside Knott's Berry Farm actually has really good BBQ. They offer tri-tip, ribs, pulled pork, spicy sausage, wings, and chicken. The plates come with choice of a side and corn bread roll. They also have salads available and serve boysenberry beer. During their Christmas season, a turkey dinner sandwich is on the menu (pictured).

I usually ordered their pulled pork BBQ and get their corn on the cob or potatoes this time I tried their mac and cheese. this time their pulled pork had a lot of fat mixed with it. but its usually doesn't. the cornbread muffin that they make is extremely good. I love their corn bread muffin. the mac and cheese wasnt that good. kinda flavorless. their potatoes and coleslaw are so far the best sides that I have tried that they have.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3/5) We also tried Boardwalk BBQ during our visit to Knott's Berry Farm. The restaurant had a few selections available, but overall the choices felt somewhat limited compared to other dining spots in the park. Unfortunately, many of the food items on display didn’t look very appetizing at the time we visited, which made it a bit harder to decide what to get. The selection also seemed smaller than expected for a BBQ-style restaurant. The location is convenient inside the park, and the service was fine, but the food presentation and variety could definitely be improved. With more options and better presentation, this place could offer a much better dining experience for guests.
Purchased the all day dining plan at Knott's Berry Farm and tried out Boardwalk BBQ. You can get one entree and one side. I got the tri tip and vegetables. The tri tip was really dry and tough to eat. It was probably one of my least favorite things to eat while I was at Knott's.

They changed their menu and took away the tri tip and the potato wedges. They also switched from corn bread to corn casserole, with whole corn kernels. Used to be the best place to eat at Knott's and now they swapped out most of the good stuff for stuff I don't like
I never leave reviews but me and my partner were looking forward coming back here but we were EXTREMELY disappointed. As you can see from the pictures these plates do not look like $20 worth of food. We got way more last year when we came. We waited in line for 30 minutes and asked them when a new tray of the brisket would come out since we didn’t want the last of the burnt fatty scraps but they said “ we aren’t allowed to put a new tray in until this one is finished” we didn’t want anything else there so we got the brisket and were hopeful it would still be good. There was a couple of good bites in the brisket but not worth $20. Mainly fat and burnt parts. Also the sides were SO little, it should be two sides. Mac and cheese had barely any flavor. The cornbread was fine . Won’t be coming back here though.
Was great food this summer, so I decided to have lunch there today and to my surprise the food items available are different and far less quality, they weighed the food. Very little portions. Brisket was super thin and fatty. The girl serving the food had a bad attitude. 2 stars was me being very generous.
The barbecue pork was dry. The macaroni and cheese was dry, and it was cold. We went around 4:00 on a Monday and $50 for 2 three entree platters and $20 for a mac and cheese with BBQ on it. Probably some of the worst barbecue and mac and cheese we ever had! Dry, poor quality food! Gas station food is better!

I am disappointed with the service of the drink station here. They should say first that theyre out of most machine syrup before having us purchase a cup. Not after.
Drinks are always out. Try to get peach tea and end up with either water or flat diet coke. Staff doesn't care or fix it. There's no bbq sauce like there used to be. Pretty crazy that you can't get bbq sauce at a bbq restaurant. People don't control their children. I got kids running circles around my table, running into my chair. Park staff doesn't do anything about it and the parents don't care that their children are terrorizing other guests.
Terrible quality chicken strips and fires! Even ranch dressing was the worst Ranch in my life! Congrats to its manager to manage to buy the worst quality food to see here
