    Friendly waitresses and great food. The cashew chicken is a favorite between my group. My family always goes on the weekend during Dim Sum hours. We order the potstickers, shrimp green peppers, yobing, fried rice, and congee. All are great options and the plates are enough to give you a taste. This place has been a spot my family has gone to for years and every time we leave with happy and full stomachs.

    This food felt way too Americanized for my liking. Heavy sauces & not enough spice &/or heat. The waitress also refused my request to add tofu to a vegetable dish? So strange....She said it would be "weird" but I am sure that since I was the one ordering I could have been the judge of that. When the food that I did end up ordering arrived I could tell the tofu would have been fine in the other dish. I was surprised too because supposedly that special tofu dish had garlic in it but I couldn't catch any hint of it...and this coming from a 36 yr old with a well developed palate.  

    Their hot chili oil was also NOT spicy...which means it was old and not fresh.

    Their table cloths appear to have been purchased at a garage sale? Dinosaurs here, Easter bunnies there...

    The service was also really bad....very slow. The slowest that I've experienced for Chinese food.

    Love this place. I'm a slave for the King Pao chicken and my family loves the lo mein. Sweet, hospitable servers & staff. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that the bathrooms are hella sketch.

    Okay I will post this as my first and last review of Little Panda.  I really loved the food here.  Best Chinese food in the area for the price.  The inside of the restaurant always clean and the hostess(es) usually very nice and helpful.  Honestly I've gotten take out from here somewhere around 20 times and always been happy with the food especially the hot and sour soup and egg rolls.

    However they screwed up a friend's order so badly that sad to say we won't be ordering from Little Panda anymore.  But I can't in good conscience knock the food, the food is good.  If anyone has suggestions for another Chinese food place in the area with comparable prices and quality please PM me.  I'm not from this area but I do visit quite often and always looking for good food spots.

    We have enjoyed Little Panda for years.  Ordered last night and had one of the worst meals we've had in recent memory.  Meat was awful, veggies in the green bean chicken and beef with broccoli were over cooked to mushy, neither dish had ANY flavor, and the "fried rice" was completely dry with only a few old-looking carrot shreds - no peas, no other anything.  It was also completely flavorless.  I would not have served any of that food - that food that cost $50 including tip - to my worst enemy.  Nobody in the family could eat it, and down the disposal it went.  Pretty expensive mistake that I won't be repeating.  Also, they need to fix their sign that has read 'da' for quite some time.
