Reviews for Panda Express in St Cloud, MN
Normally this place is mediocre and you pay for what you get but this last time we went, was not okay. There was 6 people... working (4 on line, 2 cooking). Our greeter was very nice however he was the only good thing that came from our visit. The restof the staff acted like they had no sense of urgency or care in the world that there were multiple people waiting for theirorders and food to be cooked. The second line person had headphones in and was not attentive nor welcoming at all. The two womenon the line were pleasant but again, no sense of urgency at all. There were only 2 cooks working the whole time and 4 line staffwere just standing there watching and not helping.. When we finally got our order, 1/2 our food was hot and 1/2 was cold due towaiting 15 minutes for the selected food. We also got an additional order of wontons which we did not order, but thanks for thecold cream cheese (I feel bad for whoever was supposed to get these). It's pretty ridiculous that there seemed to be no manageron site or if they were, they were okay with how service was being handled. We will definitely take our money and timeelsewhere. Read more
This is pretty good Chinese for a fast food joint! It's a bit pricey for me, but it was well worth the coupon discount price. I... took my order to go, but the place looked clean & organized. Service was fast & employees were friendly. Read more
Improvement over my last visit. This was my last and final attempt to continue to love Panda Express. I don't know what... happened to the previous 2 visits. The product was absolutely horrible! This final shot was almost back to normal! I ate allmy food and loved it again! Keep everything consistent and I will continue to love it. Read more
This restaurant has incredibly rude staff, a disorganized kitchen, and a messy lobby. They let my food get cold while waiting... for an order to be finished. They did not clean the lobby at all. One person there is friendly and polite, but the rest ofthem were definitely disengaged. The food quality is definitely not where it should be. Read more
Unfortunately, our latest visit was not one that I'd want to repeat. Usually I like Panda, but they now have fewer vegetarian... options. In fact, side vegetables is pretty much it. Pretty plain veggies with rice that was not fresh. My vegetable springrolls also were not fresh. Employees are trying, but just seem like they'd rather be somewhere else. Read more
The absolute be meal to date from Panda. We got the family deal with white rice, orange chicken and Sweetfire chicken. The... veggies in the sweetfire were perfectly cooked with the right amount of heat. The orange chicken was the best yet. We also got 1plate with fried rice, bejing beef, honey chicken. All was amazing. We ordered ahead and once we arrive it was incredibly busybut we waited maybe 5 mins for our fresh hot food to take home. Definitely deserve the 5 stars and more. Thanks Panda Employeesfor the wonderful supper!! We will be back! Read more
Food was hot and fresh but serving portions very skimpy compared to other Panda locations I've been at.
I went in and saw they had a single portion of orange chicken, one of the dishes I wanted. They claimed it would be at least a 4... minute wait and that I wouldn?t want what they had left. I was polite and patient. Yet right in front of me they gave theapparently ?not good? portion to another lady, then when another lady walked in for double orange chicken, they told me becauseshe paid in advance they?ll be making hers before mine once the new batch is done. They never gave me a ?prepay? option, I wasin the store several minutes before she paid, and yet they treated me terribly considering I?m always a good customer. Theyproceeded to talk down to me and did not care that I left with nothing. As someone who has worked in food service before andapparently had bosses with higher standards in the past, not one of them smiled, not one of them were friendly, and they pickedfavorites on customers. Unacceptable - restaurant leadership, please take notice and coach your staff or find better staff. Read more
