Panda Express

I actually enjoyed eating here even after swing reviews. I did come at lunch time so that may have accounted for part of it. The food was good and servers were nice.

Worst panda express ever the manager the female one is the rudest person you could ever meet their chow mein taste like it’s been sitting in rancid oil for 3 days. Like they need to change their oil! Uhm the orange chicken is not fresh and hard … Super dry. The beef with broccoli is super over cooked and the broccoli isn’t even green it’s pale and slimey. Their food is NEVER fresh or cooked right. I don’t know what’s wrong with Idaho but every chain restaurant here is horrible compared to anywhere else!

All I have to say is I have only had one good experience here and that was during rush hour. Every single time I have gone at a time that might be a little before dinner or a little after lunch the food has been stale and old. This has happened many times to me. I’ve given up on this Panda Express. I only go to the one on Utah Ave.

Worst Panda Express ever. The food was terrible. They forgot to give me my cream cheese rangoons and overcharged me. It was such a waste of money and I want to throw it up.

I simply cannot get enough of their Teriyaki Chicken! I usually don’t eat much for lunch, but every time I go there I get a double order of Teriyaki Chicken and steamed rice and absolutely stuff myself.
The food is always fresh. The service is always fast and helpful. I only wish they sold bottles of their Teriyaki sauce like they do their other sauces. Love, love, love it!

Waited for our food for 45 mins and learned that the food was ready and they just kept serving other customers. Asked for our food 3 times! This is the worst Panda ever. None of the bathrooms worked either. Every Panda I’ve eaten has been great except this one. Super disappointing. Don’t stop eating Panda just don’t eat at this one.

The portions are big, big enough to share with a child. I love that I can get Half chow mein and half veggies as my side, which gives enough chow mein for my 4 year old’s entire meal and then leaves the veggies and two entrees for me. Everything we’ve tried has been good and fresh. The service is fast and the restaurant clean.

I loved panda have ate at ones all over the country. This one is horrible. Pot sticker are always burnt. Noodles are soggy and it’s just a bad food experience in general the food is just not made with care like it is at other ones. Will not go back.

My kids love the Orange Chicken and Fried Rice. It’s all we get here. Yes, it’s fast food (though it is always a really long wait in the drive through) but you have to admit there is something about that Orange Chicken flavor. The chicken pieces are breaded, and chewy, and sometimes you get a chunk without any meat in it at all! But it’s still a good meal for a once in a while treat on family night or whatever.
It’s on the expensive side though, for what you get, so we really don’t go here that often. Cheaper to get the kids a pizza from Little Caesars and faster, too. But we mix it up every once in a while and bring home a Family Feast from Panda & they go bananas. I can’t eat it anymore due to the breaded stuff, but my husband still enjoys a big plateful and leftovers the next day.

After the rave reviews I’ve heard about this place, I thought I’d give it a try. Now, you have to understand, I know a thing or two about Chinese food. My best friend had a foreign exchange student from China staying with her family, and she cooked for all of us several times per week. It, Was. Amazing.
This food is not amazing. Most of the time their breaded, fried items are more chewy than crunchy, and the meat is always dry. I was severely disappointed in the quality of the food, especially considering how much my other friend raved about it. But, I guess that’s what I get for having high expectations, and for not realizing that this was a fast food chain. Shame on me.

I am upset with this Panda Express. I grew up loving it when I would go to fairs or the mall in Boise and what not. But when this opened, it wasn’t that great at all. And I came to also give my friend support since he worked there. He ended up quiting himself because it wasn’t that great.
The service was bad. We felt very rushed. I know its a «fast food» type but we didn’t even really have time to decide what we wanted since they were pretty much glaring at us. The food wasn’t that fresh either. I went in around 12 for lunch so you would think it was fresh but… no.
Their spring rolls tasted old and like it was ordered online or something!
The rice was meh. I had the fried rice, my husband had the steam rice. It was kind of dry. Not that bad but not that great.
Haven’t gone back a 2^nd time and probably wont anytime soon

I have been waiting for the past four years for Panda Express to come to Idaho. I was so happy when they built this in Idaho Falls that I was one of the first people they served on the day they opened. I have since been here a couple of times, and the quality of the food seems consistent. Strangely, it is some of the better Chinese you can get in the region, which speaks volumes to how bad the Chinese food in Idaho can be. It’s just like any other Panda Express, no problems here.
