Panda Express — Restaurant in Northfield Center Township

This is a real review - most of the other 14 look like employee/shill reviews. First time trying a Panda drive through. The ordering experience was easy enough, clear menu, staff were courteous, if not overly friendly, and accurate.

I got a "plate" (styrofoam box, unfortunately) with orange chicken, beijing beef, and fried rice. The Beijing beef was legitimately good, pretty tasty. The orange chicken was also tasty but consisted only of a bunch of tiny pieces, nothing like the pictures. Both portions seemed very skimpy. The fried rice was a larger portion (odd that the side was much bigger than the entrees), and seemed fresh but was utterly flavorless and didn't seem to be prepared the same way as in traditional American Chinese restaurants.

Overall I'd call this pretty average food, at an average value, at best. Not bad, but certainly nothing to rave about. The fried rice was really disappointing, and the entrees were visually underwhelming because of the small portion sizes. And I try to avoid using styrofoam, in favor of materials that are compostable, recyclable, or somehow reusable, and most companies avoid styrofoam these days, thankfully. I ca.n think of five mom-n-pop Chiense restaurants within about a 10 minute drive of this place, all of which have better food and bigger portions, and way more choices for the same price, so I probably won't be back here much - consider my...

I had never been there before and they were advertising their hot orange chicken. I went through the drive-thru and asked is the hot orange chicken, spicy hot or are you referring to it not being cold? They said it's spicy hot. I asked if they had a not spicy orange chicken and they said yes so I ordered that. It turns out that their hot spicy chicken and they're not hot spicy chicken are both hot. There is some sort of red flaked pepper in the not hot chicken. I'm very sensitive to heat so I was told I had to come inside for them to replace my order. Their honey sesame chicken, which was not hot. So when you order either of their orange chicken, you get just the orange chicken. If you order the sesame chicken it comes mixed with yellow pepper and green beans so your portion of chicken is much less.

Almost all of their entrees are spicy. There aren't many non-spicy entrees to choose from. These dishes are all pre-made and are held hot in these meal bowls. You can't...

1st time and last time going to this location. The store was very unprofessional. I witnessed a lead or manager mistreating an employee as she was trying to help me with my order. Embarrassing an employee instead of pulling her to the side and having a discussion with her would of been the best thing to do. Everything this lead or manager found wrong she pointed the finger to the same employee as if she was the only one in there. The facial expressions that was being made at this employee was sad. Employee even made a comment saying this may be her last day because of the treatment she received from her coworkers. Wasn’t a lot of customers while i was there and they were behind on fulfilling orders. I don’t recommend this location to anyone. Food wasn’t good for the wait time we had. They need to change the soda machine also the pop has no...
