Panda Bistro — Restaurant in Sugar Land

The worst Chinese food experience I’ve ever had. First, the lunch specials are all essentially the same dish. Chicken, chicken, and more chicken. I felt like beef, so I substituted the chicken in the “Mongolian” Chicken with beef. I got the hot and sour soup with the crab puff. I will say this- the food came quickly. The hot and sour soup came first and it was, by far, the best part about my order. Next, the “Mongolian” Beef came with the two crab puffs and a tablespoon of fried rice. The crab puffs were worse, far worse, than anything you can get from the frozen food section at WalMart. Being generous, there was maybe a teaspoon of puff material inside, surrounded by a soggy tasteless glob of batter. They were awful. The rice portion was tiny and tasteless, some was even still white. Now, to the beef and the sauce used to make it “Mongolian”. I counted four pieces of thin beef, small, and without any flavor of their own. Uncooked onions and a few peppers and such were there as well. The main issue was the sauce. I tried hard to like it, but I was left feeling that it was really just bbq sauce that was thinned out a bit. It all tasted waaaay to sweet for the dish it was supposed to be. Honestly, I’ve had mall Chinese food that blew this away. Coupled with the tiny cramped seating and the hanging light globes overhead that I hit my head on three times, and this is in the never again...

EDIT BELOWThe food is great. No doubt. Its a very small place-not a restaurant by any stretch but good for a lunch bite there. Otherwise, take out mostly. The only reason not giving 5-stars, is, all the times I've visited, the one constant is the dry, short and unfriendly woman that works there. The man is nice and cordial, and there is another older asian female that acts more like a super-sweet grandma, but the middle-aged asian woman is very unfriendly. You think she's thanking you for the food or asking you a question about what else would you like, but she's actually talking to the person on her bluetooth ear piece. Just could do a little better with customer service. Again, food is great. Customer service could use a bit of tweaking.*EDITI've came back to this place several times after this review, as recent as 6/4/2018 and I have to say, the front help is extremely friendly now. Today a young woman with a cross necklace was the epitome of joyful and helpful service. What a great change. The food is good as always and now the staff is as good or better. Thanks for making...

I dropped by one day because my sister suggested this place . I tried from their regular menu... it was fair and authentic. Then, the gentleman at the counter suggested the Spicy Juicy wings . These wings are like kissing a jellyfish. My lips had swollen, and I couldn't stop devouring these delicious wings . Ok, so in comparison to Wing Stop flavor on High and Buffalo Wild Wings in size. I ordered a second time before I left . Take my advice on this one, eat them fresh .(They lose a little bit of freshness if you wait) Come in if you claim you like hot and are a wing snob. No Ranch needed here all flavor without the help of a dipping sauce. I also recommend the white rice it is an excellent compliment to the wings . My tummy is grumbling, just wanting more . Come by , try and feel the...
