This place is a great find! I got General Tso Chicken and my girlfriend got Orange Chicken. Both dishes were presented beautifully and tasted amazing. It has the feel of a larger Chinese resturaunt with the pricing of a local resturaunt. The place was clean all around. No dirt or trash anywhere. We will be back soon.

Really enjoyed the food and the service. It’s a small restaurant, and there isn’t a lot of space between tables, so if you’re near a large group, be prepared to hear everything they are saying-like it or not. However, the staff is very, very nice and welcoming and the food is very fresh.

This is really a two star if you get the express lunch, but a three if you order from the menu. The staff is plenty friendly and can remember what you like, but it is just mediocre Chinese food. I eat here often because it’s close to where I work and I love Chinese food.

We LOVE Happy Panda! They offer more flavorful dishes than the typical Chinese restaurant and are always friendly and have a very clean environment for eat-in. Prices can be a little higher than some Chinese places but you can definitely tell it from the quality and presentation of the dishes. I think the people giving it two stars are crazy!

I would not eat at a two or three star place so why it is I don’t know. It’s solid and you should give it a try if your reading this. They go out of the way to serve you late or not. I have tired many different options and all well. Only Asians place other than PF I give my business too. So try it and share…

Typical Chinese food with a few extras on the menu. The place is clean and their inspection ratings is always solid. Which is why I eat here. Is it the best Chinese food around? No. Is it clean, decent and relatively tasty, yes.

Located in a newly developing shopping area, the Happy Panda was quiet and clean. It appears to be a family owned operation. The fried dumplings are better than average and was served warm. The Wong tong soup was also flavorful. The beef and peapod dish however did not measure up. The flavor was okay but the quality of the beef pieces were unacceptable. These must have been the cheapest cuts available. Tough and full of gristles, these pieces were extra chewy and basically inedible! I gave up after trying three pieces. Bottom line: perfectly okay for appetizers but extra care needs to be exercised when choosing the main course. Curious? Can’t hurt to try it as they participate in Group On quite often.

I liked that there were crisps available when we ate in to munch on, but it does not make up for the disgusting food we received. I don’t even remember what we ordered because I’ve blocked it out. This was years ago so it may have changed, but I would never recommend this place to anyone.

Stayed at a nearby hotel and it was within walking distance. Would not go there again. Food tasted like the quality of the pre prepped bags you buy from the grocery store. Nothing really authentic about it. The Rangoon that others rave about as being unique and awesome, hate to break it to you, that’s pre made, not fresh. The restaurant was clean and well kept, but we got our orders to go. The crispy sesame chicken was soggy, the fried rice was definitely not made fresh and lacked flavor.
