Panda Cafe

Ordered though EatStreet but we weren’t waiting by the door starving for the food so I’m not sure exactly how long it took. I would say average time if I needed to guess.
Now onto the food, we ordered crab rangoon, beef lo mein, and roast pork chow fun noodles. The rangoons are normals ones, nothing more and nothing less. The beef lo mein did satisfy the greasy, heavy, Chinese food craving but without all the grease you would expect (but there is some). Roast pork chow fun on the other hand, was meh. The pork was dried and felt like it’s been left out too long and the noodles are sightly over.
Overall, average Chinese food to satisfy the cravings. Would order again.

$ 6.35 for lunch. No frills place that has a small buffet behind glass where you get fried rice/​white rice/​lol mein and 2 entrees.

This was our first order and it’s great. The portions are big and the price is reasonable. It took less than 30 minutes to arrive too. This is definitely on the short list of delivery options!

Yummy food and speedy delivery. $ 1 delivery fee cannot be beat either.

Nice little secret hidden away near a Costco. I love getting food from this place. Their menu has lots of different stuff if you don’t want chinese, they’ve got sandwiches and wings and other stuff. I always get the singapore rice noodles, extra spicy. It’s basically a massive serving deliciously flavored noodles with chicken, pork, egg, onion. I usually get that with the crab rangoon. It’s enough food to feed me all day for about $ 11. Ridiculous. It’s super quiet inside and there’s hardly ever anyone there so it’s a cool place to eat with a friend. They even have an upstairs dining area no one ever seems to use but I felt kinda weird being up there. Cause like I said, there’s no one else there. Almost felt like I was intruding. What an awesome place.

The General Tso chicken was really good. I think this place is the best in the area.
Only reason that I’m giving them 4 stars is their delivery time. Other than that, thumbs up!

The food is pretty good. The delivery is slow, but that’s ok. We can just order earlier. The fried rice is amazing!

Best Chinese in the area. The fried rice is the best in town. They also have a buffet style lunch that makes eating on your lunch break even faster. Very recommended.

It was just ok. Decided to get a lunch special while I was visiting my aunt. The food came pretty quick, but the food was not memorable. Just my opinion.

Yes, it is a hole in the wall but really, they have some good food for VERY little money. I’m always satisfied with the quality of the food for so cheap. No atmosphere whatsoever so do the take out or delivery folks!

Ordered delivery last night. Cost $ 26 for Chicken Lo Mein, Crab Rangoon, and General Tso’s Chicken. I can’t give a review on the General Tso’s because that was the wife’s meal but here goes mine:
Crab Rangoon: VERY cheesy, not a lot of crab at all. And the little you did get was very over saturated with cheese that you couldn’t taste it. I ate 1 of the 8 and threw the rest out!
Chicken Lo Mein: This has to be the WORST Chicken Lo Mein I have EVER eaten! I got through 2 bites and gave up. The chicken was TERRIBLE! It didn’t even have chicken consistency. Was very mushy and almost had a shrimp like consistency. The taste was so terrible that I couldn’t even dilute it with soy sauce.
All in all I will never order from them again… was absolutely terrible food! On top of the delivery driver ringing my door bell like it was a national emergency. Rang my door bell 3 times in 2 seconds!
Do yourself a favor and eat elsewhere!

The hot and sour soup was AWESOME until I found a long black hair mixed in. That brought the awesome level way down.
The delivery took a little over an hour. I recommend only ordering wings if you are eating there. They were a soggy mess by the time they got to me. The General Tso’s was good though!

This is very good Chinese food. After our disappointing visit to the blue Pearl, we were worried we’d never find a good Chinese restaurant in Springfield. My 14-​year-​old son had the Yuling duck, and exclaimed afterwards that it was the best Asian food he’d ever had. The décor and atmosphere is the reason for 4 stars, but the food is definitely a 5!

Hands down one of the best Chinese food I have ever had. Super fresh and not greasy. My new go to place

There are many places to get Chinese food in and around Springfield, but Panda Café is one of the best. I usually order Kung Pao Chicken and steamed Vegetable Dumplings, but everything I’ve had there is very good. The staff is very friendly, the prices reasonable, and they cook the food in a flash. Check it out!

I only eat Chinese food from two restaurants: Panda Café in Springfield and Hunan D’Lite in Woodbridge. They both have good food at great prices. I’m talking about 7 – 9 bucks per order that can feed around 3 – 4 people, that tastes good and leaves you full. What more could anyone ask for…
I order delivery from Panda about 2 – 3 times a month and it never gets old. There are so many dishes that I’ve ordered and I will try to recommend as many as I can remember:
Appetizers:
The only appetizer I order from Panda are the Crab Rangoon. They are crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside.
Soups:
The Hot & Sour Soup is delicious and has a hint of spiciness to it. Guaranteed to order two small soups for my parents, they love it.
Entrees:
The Fried Rice and Lo Mein are good no matter how you order it (beef, chicken, pork, shrimp or combination). I prefer the Chicken Fried Rice with egg and onion without the peas and carrots.
The Lo Mein and Singapore Rice Noodle are so good that they taste even better the next day cold.
The Chicken Wings are also good and are made crispy and are still juicy on the inside.
The Chicken & Broccoli and Beef & Broccoli are delicious as well.
The Moo Shi Beef or Chicken is also good, has lots of veggies (cabbage, mushrooms, green onions) and is my fathers favorite.
The Seafood Delight is also delicious and has lots of veggies as well that go well with the lobster, shrimp and scallops.
Anyone of their Steak & Cheese renditions will fill you up and my favorite has to be the Steak, Egg and Cheese.
The Chicken Wing Special is by far the best dish here, simply because it includes Four whole jumbo wings and either french fries or fried rice to go with it for around 8 bucks and can feed two. And for about $ 1.50 more you can get the Fried rice with chicken, beef, shrimp or pork.
Now, to end a perfect meal with any of the above mentioned items, and considering they do not have desserts, I would suggest getting the Orange chicken (sweet and delicious) or the General Tso’s chicken (sweet with a little bit of spice).
I know this was a long review but I suppose it’ll help someone make a decision on what to order much easier. I hope you enjoy eating at Panda Café, I know I have…

Had the lunch «buffet». The food was ok. I got the crispy chicken and General Tso’s chicken. Thecrispy chicken was good, but got too sweet the more I ate it. The General Tsos chicken was very tough and impossible to chew. The sauce was food though. I’ve had worse and I’ve had better. The lady working the counter just looked at me and getting her to talk was like pulling teeth. Not really the best customer service.

Some of the best fried tofu I’ve had in the DC area. The tofu is clearly freshly fried, not that pre-​fried gross stuff, and the sauces are good. Their mooshoo tofu is also excellent. Staff is willing to make tofu versions of things that aren’t on the menu.
If you love fried tofu, please try this place. It’s not authentic or anything, but it’s delicious and satisfying and reasonably priced.
(I imagine the other food is good too, but I wouldn’t know.)

Oh Panda Café, how you tempt me with your delicious food that makes me want to take a sleeping bag to work with me for after I have a lunch with you.
My colleagues and myself go here all the time for lunch because of multiple reasons. They have a pick two lunch, which I always seem to get lo mein with general tso + crispy chicken, that is always fresh and quick.
The food is yummy, they give you good portions, they are always friendly, the food is cheap and best of all… what other place has a «Sky Room» upstairs to go eat? =)
Oh Panda Café how close I am to getting enough stamps to get a free meal!

There are a couple of places in the area that I like to get Chinese food from but Panda Café has been by far my favorite since it’s grand opening several years ago.
Last night my best friend and I ordered two dinner combos. The portions for each were large enough for us to divide the combos into two meals, so we ordered one Orange Chicken and the other General Tso’s*. The sauces seem to be sweeter then they use to be and not so spicy anymore. I have no complaints about this as the food still tasted great despite the change. As for the chicken fried rice that came with the combo, it was as fantastic as it always is. Too many times I’ve had chicken pieces that were very dry or rice that was too salty and overly flavored but never from here. The Vegetable Spring Roll was equally fantastic.
I highly recommend this place. The other menu items I have enjoyed in the past are the Sweet and Sour Chicken and Moo Shi Chicken. In addition to the great food, Panda Café has the best looking delivery guy I have ever seen.
