Friendly staff. Though food quality could be a little unstable, most of the time it’s really good. You can’t beat what you get from Panda for such a low price.

Wendy

Love this branch! Thao was my server and she was warm, friendly, quick, and efficient. The food was just made at 6:00pm and tasty. I will be coming here more in the future.

Great food - warm, tasty, fresh, and an honest price. Service is great, no nonsense. Just not the place to actually eat it - better get it to go.

I visited this place at first time and i definitely will vosit it again. Service is cery friendly and rapid. Place is very clean and convinient. Food is good.

Helen Marquis

Food was great - piping hot and super tasty. I'm a big fan of orange chicken. Sadly the ambience was terrible - one member of staff was on their break and was sat in the middle of the restaurant watching videos on their phone with the sound blasting. As there was also music playing in the restaurant it made for a horrendous noise.

It was my first time eating at Panda Express. I thought it was alright! The chow mien portion was huge. It's not gourmet dining by any means, but with the low low price I can see why there were so many customers there.

Kung Pao chicken is disappointing, the chicken is not fried and and it has no Kung Pao flavor. Otherwise it's too salty and watery. The chefs here need to relearn how to make Kung Pao chicken. Btw the chicken is very very tender, it seems to be not fully cooked, beware of their food quality.

Ordered the Chili Crisp Bowl. Scheduled a pickup at 1:00pm but they had already made the food around 12:55pm, so the food got a bit cold. Also their pick up process is not smooth. They are supposed to put the food out on the stand, but they didn't. So I had to go to the counter amidst lots of people to ask for my order. They just seemed very rushed and disorganized. The food itself was decent. The restaurant doesn't have much seating and all the regular tables are near the door, so when people come in and out, the cold air from outside blows in your face.

I only go to Panda Express for that honey walnut shrimp! Fast take out if you're in a rush to go somewhere and need a quick bite. But if you are looking to try authentic Chinese food, check out my reviews on other Chinese restaurants around the area!

It’s really amazing to see that more and more companies are incorporating plant-based options on the menu! We drove to a specific participating location of @officialpandaexpress in Mountain View as they just started rolling out these Beyond Orange Chick’n in the Bay Area! The nuggets were decently seasoned and has a nice touch of crispiness to them. We ordered ours with a side of greens and had them with quinoa made at home for some extra protein in our grains. Would love to see these become available across more locations! Check us out @vegeatswithya on IG for more vegan and vegetarian eats in the area!

Today I went to this Panda Express and the food was very bad. I think because the friars have a burnt smile and the chicken mushroom is not much good and as well as the Kung pao chicken is too big piece in size But the teriyaki chicken was good. And my concern is, I think, san jose westgate panda express is too good, comparing to other panda express. A

Ratings and Reviews

Tasteless for me. I can’t go to this place again. I waited in the queue for more than 10 minutes and i got this tasteless noodle. Almost missing green veggies, just oil and chewy noodle strings.

Green beans undercooked in string beans chicken dish. Very difficult to cook green beans for you? Do you sample what you sell? I saw reviews with undercooked vegetables for this location. All I got uncooked raw green beans and paid for it - horrible!

tanya elsherif

I’m handicap and had nowhere to park so I couldn’t enter the store. This is the second time this month that they have their trash dumpster blocking the handicap spot. Which I believe is a violation.this needs to be fixed. Put it away !!!!

The Mini Comfort Meal is advertised as a half portion of rice or chow mien and a full portion of an entree. But not at this Panda Express where they fill the box with the side and sprinkle a few pieces of the entree on top. Honestly I think the attitude at this Panda Express is “the more we serve, the more we have to work cooking” Fortune cookie said: “You can only cheat a smart person once” How to detect fake Google reviews; look at the reviews made and if practically every review they’ve ever written is a five-star review, it’s almost certain that it’s a fake review account for the purpose of raising the overall rating or burying poor reviews.

Hi Lo

So gross! A few days every week I see this guy taking his smoke break with his kitchen gloves on! This smoking spot is about a 110 meters from the restaurant doors. If he doesn't remove his gloves to walk all the way over there to smoke, is he really going to put new ones on when he goes back inside? Are those the same gloves he was wearing the last time he came out to smoke? I don't care about cigarettes hands one bit. I do however get nauseous when I think of what this nasty behavior implies. What other disgusting things are going on here?

It used to be good but the portions in all my recent orders have been pretty poor. Also they should re-name their Broccoli Beef... "Broccoli MAYBE Beef"... I guess it's time to look for a new place.

Namit

Entree in Plate was not even in enough quantity for the chowmein. Server was Jonathan. Complained and nothing happened.

Jeffrey Kuo

Fried rice was horrible, I don't know how you can overcook it and undercook it at the same time. Mushy and sad but still bits of undercooked rice... is it that hard to have some quality control??

Zhongyi Tong

Dishonest business. A $7.10 walnut shrimp only has 4 pieces. Same for other entrees. 4 entrees priced over $20 can only feed one person. Shouldn't panda be some cheap fast food?
