Panda Palace

I was very impressed with this restaurant, I would say this is the BEST CHINESS restaurant in Lake Elsinore, not only is the food fabulous, it’s Fresh, Tasty, they give you enough for 3 days, and it is under $ 10., the place is really Clean, I was truly impressed, 1^st time I ever been there, and I am going back on Wednesday this week, and taking a friend… Thank You sooo much for a Great Experience, and Great Good, the staff is also very friendly also :-)

I recently moved out to Elsinore and decided to give this place a chance. We got the 2 item lunch special. The rice was dry and tasteless. Chow Mein was not much better and had a odd color compared to what I’m used to. My 2 items I chose was, Orange and Teriyaki chicken. To me the quality of meat was poor, the Orange chicken not great at all. I’m disappointed, looks like if I want good Chinese food I will have to drive farther to Golden Chopsticks. Too bad they are 2 mins from my house.
What good are big portions if you don’t finish your lunch due to poor quality and gross food.

I Love this place. I have been coming here for years now. There very clean, friendly, and attentive at panda palace. The food is always being added to the trays to to keep things fresh witch is a good sign due to there always seem to have people eating here at all hours of the day .
This is the only spot for BOBA in lake Elsinore !!! So yes I’m Always here for the BOBA. There’s a really great lunch special deal here too. 2 items W /​rice/​chow-​mien/​16oz drink for 6.99 $!?! Always filling the to go tray full of food in till it almost doesn’t close. So generous here.
For the people who posted they had a bad experience here. Remember. You can’t please everyone all of the time. Lake Elsinore does have there share of cheap ass’s and it seems all they do is complain. I’m here to reassure you this place is on point … Give them a try you won’t regret it.

Moderately priced, generous portions, clean restaurant, great tasting food, love the Thai tea.

Get there early or you may miss out on the BBQ Pork, it is the bomb.
Also; if you are a Hot & Sour soup fan you won’t be disappointed, but be aware it can be on the spicy side.

I decided to give this place a second chance. This time I went at 6:30 pm, right in the middle of dinner. I got Teriyaki Chicken and Orange Chicken in a combo along with egg rolls and fried rice.
The egg rolls were good, unfortunately noting else was. The fried rice was still dried out and tasteless. Both chicken dishes should have the word «jerky» added to them because both were extremely dry, tough and nearly impossible to chew.
I’m not sure if they just overcook the food or it’s been sitting out so long it’s dried out. In fact none of the dishes looked very appetizing, they all looked a bit dry, which was strange since there were quite a few people in there and the food should have been fresh.
Suffice to say, a second chance did nothing to change my opinion. Just plain bad. Sorry I went back.

Seriously the best chinese food in lake elsinore. My sister and i go at least once a week.

Large portions for the price and tasty food. My fave is the teriyaki chicken bowl with steamed rice and veggies. The servers are fast, friendly and pretty freakin cute (that last bit doesn’t really affect the food, but, well, doesn’t hurt either). Also, TV!
Thumbs up!

I don’t know about you guys, but there orange chicken is the shit. Cheap and convenient.

Great food, and big portions. Good prices. It’s a fast food place so don’t expect anything healthy the ladies are very nice and the place is always clean.

Great option for dinner on the area. Plentiful portions, Boba drinks are a plus and the special order items such as hot and sour soup, garlic shrimp and Mongolian beef are worth the wait. Service is always great. Friendly workers too. Our Friday night go to favorite! Oh, and the $ 25 family meal feeds an army.

China Palace is consistently good. I use them for a lunch run after I’ve had my Chiropractic adjustment from Raskey just the block before. Makes for a quick lunch run just like working in an office. Hubby is vegetarian and they make him a fresh batch of Kung Pao Tofu. I had the King Pao Chicken. Chow Mein & Fried Rice are both good. Topped off my 2-​item lunch special with egg rolls. Wish they had vegi Egg Rolls for hubby but they don’t. By hey have the cream cheese wan tons though. I also like their Tai Tea (no boba).

Absolutely disgusting! I didn’t think mixed vegetables could be screwed up, but this place found a way. And the chow mein tasted like a fish died on the noodles and someone poured a bunch of salt over the top hoping it would cover the taste. I have no idea how this place stays in business.

My wife and I debated going to this place for the first time or going to Panda Express over by Costco, which is pretty good and always the same .
Unfortunately, we felt like taking a chance so we went to this place and oh my, the food was horrible. There was no flavor with any side or entrée except the taste of too much salt and a tart flavor I would associate with food and/​or a condiment that was close to spoiling… Tasting like vinegar when it shouldn’t, in other words.
Everything was kind of hard and chewey too. It is obvious that they don’t taste for themselves what they are serving and I strongly suspect nothing is fresh either. It’s hard to tell with Chinese food by looking at it, so it makes sense that greedy people too cheap to throw away yesterday’s leftovers will recycle them back in a couple times.
The place looked clean but it wasn’t. The condiment bottles and table we all STICKY. It was gross to the touch. You want to wash your hands AFTER you eat there.
Now, my wife and I are hoping we don’t end up sick.
I messed up because I didn’t think about checking Unilocal first, but you can bet I remembered Unilocal on the way home.
If you want fast Chinese, go to Panda Express on Central, we think it’s one of the better Pandas around. This place on Lakeshore is a waste of money.
Places like these make me wonder how they ever stay in business and do the idiots that run them ever read the reviews?

Thank you! Always fresh and delicious. Rushing today called them and got my order ready when I got there…

The chow mein leaves a greasy film on your lips and the egg flower soup tastes like water, oil and frozen vegetables. Their food has gone down hill fast! Tofu was good, but it contained MSG!
If you have an MSG allergy STAY away from this place! They must have recently changed the way they prepare their food because I use to eat here with no problem. This time within 30 minutes of eating, I became very ill! I called to see if they used MSG and the lady of course said no. I called back Later in the day, asked to speak to a manager and the other woman who answered said «in all seasoning it normal» and hung up the phone. If it’s normal it sure wasn’t normal a few months ago! And why are there two stories about whether it’s used?
Won’t be going back!

Love their tea boba! That’s the only reason I even come to this place! The workers are always really nice, and they work pretty fast. The joint is always busy. My sisters and I probably frequent this place more than we should, but the boba is great and the prices aren’t bad! I go to school in San Diego county and I have yet to find anything this good for this price.

Sitting here waiting for a new batch of spicy chicken to be cooked up. I love this place and this food. Used to live in Corona and come here often for takeout. Now when I’m in the area I am sure to stop for some grub.
Very clean. If you come here more than once the workers remember you. Very nice people.
They also have family deals for a great vaue.
Love me some Panda.

An ok place… typical American Chinese food…
Chow mein is the sad part of their offerings… bland and to mushy.
Orange chicken is great… better then my usual Chinese place (around the corner). Other offerings are good and they have a good variety… my neighbors like this place and I only come here if they are driving…
Overall, its American Chinese Fast Food… don’t go expecting restaurant quality… expect big portions, a friendly staff, some tasty offerings and a quick trip to the toilet when you get home… and then being hungry again…

I stopped by here to order a boba smoothie. The lady took my order but took her about 10 minutes to finally make the smoothie. It consisted of syrup and ice. The boba was pretty stale and the smoothie was so sugary that it gave me a stomach ache. By the time we got home the smoothie was separated and I threw it away immediately.
