Great Panda Oriental Cuisine

I’ll give this place 2 stars, I just got fried rice and orange chicken … The rice tastes okay but the peas and carrots were not fresh some of them were frozen, the orange chicken was horrible my mouth was sore from eating it because it was like tearing rubber. The customer service was really good though, the people who run it are super nice. And they only take cash but the lady who helped me told me I could pay later. So if you’re broke and you don’t get paid till the next day this is the place to go !

If you aren’t familiar with Filipino take out, then this is not going to be your place. For those of us who do know, Great Panda is a convenient choice. I can ALWAYS count on being able to order lumpia at a moment’s notice.
We love all the traditional dishes and when we need a fix for comfort food, this is an easy stop.
This is definitely a traditional Filipino take out place.

I went into this place on my lunch and i was the only one there, they all ignored me. The lady went to the back and talking to the other lady and both were staring and talking. so i left. Worst place this is what i get for trying to eat soemthing different. so i went to albertos next soor which is Always great.

«Take it and go…»
…Food is so-​so. Good for when you need that Pinoy flavor fix. Flimsy plastic utensils and flimsy plates makes for awkward dining in. Sometimes food has been sitting under the heat lamps for more than 6 hours (so not fresh).
Service is friendly — most of the time. Always call and try to place order ahead of time. You may notice the difference in quality.
Also, you have to call on Sundays because sometimes they close early even though their hours are open until 9 pm Mon-​Sun.

I never been to there location but I already had them catered two different occassions in our house.
First was for my babyshower the food that we had was really great. We were very satisfied with the service and the foods so there was no question asked, so we decided to have them catered again for the christening of my baby.
I actually had 40 – 50 visitors so I did get a lot of compliment about how great the food was. They all wanting to know who and where we ordered the foods.
We ordered eggrolls, kare kare, fried chicken, pancit palabok, 1 whole lechon, chopsuey, caldereta, sisig, lechon kawali, rellenong bangus, shrimp, calamari barbeque and korean bbq (our favorite).we also got leche flan, cassava, halayang ube, maha blanca and kakain for desserts. there’s nothing I can complain about everything that we ordered was tasteful and delicious we even got a free half tray of bilo-​bilo.
So if your ‘e looking for a place to get a filipino food to serve for your party, I highly recommended them I swear you will not regret going to this place.

Okay so I thought this was Chinese fast good. Turns out it is Filipino fast food which was okay with me. The lady who helped me was very nice. When it was time to pay I handed her my debit card not knowing they don’t take cards. She told me to go ahead and enjoy my lunch, pay her next time I was around. I was shocked! So I ate and enjoyed the Filipino culture that was around me. I met some really awesome American/​Filipino vets. The food was okay but I only had the noodles and chicken. If you want traditional Filipino food this is the place to go.

I went here in the early evening. The restaurant itself was dirty, old, hot, and not a single person was in there at the time I came. The cook served us old leftovers from the morning before and was rude when we asked for some water. Overall, a terrible experience. Not coming back.

This place is HORRIBLE. First of all the customer service sucks. Just bad attitude I dont why this place is still open. The food choices were horrible and the food itself was really bad and it was pricey for a combo and less food. I can cook alot better than this place. I hope they open another fiipino restaurant here in temecula. Or atleast get another chef and server!!!

The name is a little misleading since when you think of «panda» and «oriental» you would think of a Chinese establishment. But this is a Filipino fast food place which sells Nilagang Baka, lumpiang shanghai and all the good stuff we Filipino’s like. :) I had a taste of their pinipig espasol which was quite good. I wish they’d clean the place better though. Checking the tables/​chairs when the store is not busy shouldn’t hurt as there’s usually rice spilled on these chairs and I personally don’t want to be picking them up.

Been here a couple of times and I haven’t been back. It’s not really a Chinese restaurant as the name suggests, but a Filipino fast food place. Food under the heatlamp type place. I’ve seen hairs all over their countertops which is just plain nasty.

The worse Chinese food place I have ever been! The food is small and just plain awful — would rather go without!
Will not be back… ever…

I have been to this establishment twice. The first time we encountered a a pleasant older lady and we ordered turon. We were excited because we found out it wasn’t a Chinese fast food place, but a Filipino fast food place — a rarity. The second time we went there it was a different lady and she was full of attitude. She greeted us with a blank stare and by saying «Yeah?» (as in yeah, what do you want).
The food was either too dry or too oily. A little pricey IMO. No fountain soda and CASH OR CHECK ONLY. That is important to know. They don’t put placecards by the food to let you know what it is.
I will give this place one more try to see if I am missing something.

Salty and oily filipino food. My dad cooks better than this! (R.I.P dad)
its the kind of food that gives u a headache after eating it. my body feels like its going to collaspe from the intake of SALT and oil… barf!
this place is no bueno for me unless u like to eat salt and oil.

Nasty.
Thought this place was a Chinese Fast food place. I wanted to get teriyaki chicken. As soon as I walked in and saw the food, I knew this was no chinese place. Oh they had teriyake chicken, but it was dried up and soaked in the teriyaki sauce. I immediately wanted to leave, but felt weird because I was the only person there and the lady was staring at me. They had orange chicken which looked okay, but I can’t have spicy stuff for the kids so I opted for the gross looking teriyaki chicken. $ 3.50 for a serving of it. Cheap, but still not worth the nastiness.
Everything else looked so questionable. Oh man, I think this place was a filipino place. Oriental cuisine my butt! I don’t know filipino food all that well even though my husband is filipino, but this stuff looked straight up nasty. I think unless you came from the phillipines, you would not want to touch this stuff or even look at it. Okay the egg rolls/​lumpia stuff looked okay, but I didn’t get any.
I went home, my son who wants to drink soy sauce told me the chicken was too salty. I tried it before I gave it to him and it was edible, but the chicken was dried out and absorbed a lot of the sauce into the meat. I think it was there in the heater since it opened that day. And I got there at 6:00pm.
I’ve never been so horrified in my life. I will absolutely never come here ever again. Never ever never never never. Ack! Can’t believe I don’t have the balls to just walk out.
