I have been coming to this little hole in the wall place for YEARS but will NEVER go back! RUDE and very UNPROFESSIONAL. Just lost a ton of money…

After seeing all the recent negative reviews of this restaurant, I wanted to give my own review as someone who's been coming here for years.
Panda is one of the better Chinese restaurants that I've been to, and my favorite one in Dothan. The food's typically always good, and I've never gotten sick from any of it. There are occasions where the egg rolls will be a little too greasy for my taste, hence the four stars, but apart from that it's usually really good. I particularly like the panda combo, with the pepper steak and chicken with broccoli. And when the egg rolls are not greasy, they're probably the best I've had from a Chinese takeout place. Both the fried and steamed dumplings are just doughy enough to not be too much, but still substantial and tasty at the same time.
As for the staff--which seems to be one of the biggest grievances people have--the woman who works the register has always been nice to me. Sure, she's not the friendliest person I've ever met, but then I'm not there on a social call. She's polite enough and always asks if I need sauce or anything else with my order.
As for the atmosphere of the place, I guess that would probably be its weakest point, but I view it as particularly a takeout restaurant anyway so it doesn't bother me. Admittedly, it's strange how they still follow the covid protocols for safety, years after the pandemic, but again, it's not really a big deal and obviously doesn't hurt the food.
So, in short, I find panda to be an above-average takeout Chinese restaurant, and I wish we had a place like that in Tuscaloosa, to be honest. I miss this place when I'm up there. I put it right there with Jin Jin and Dragon Garden in Enterprise (two other great takeout places, especially Jin Jin).
Give it a chance!

It was horrible. I ordered wings. They were fried extra extra hard lots of bread. The bones were all broken in the wings no meat. I called them because I used to get wings from them and they claim that their wings but they weren’t even meat they were just broken pieces of chicken bones with flour ! I will never go back

This place will never take my money again. The lady at the front taking orders was so rude. She had an attitude the whole time, rolling her eyes, and not even one smile. I ended up walking out. There's other restaurants here in Dothan with way better service that is worth your time.
The lady at the front taking our order was very rude. She seemed impatient while we were ordering as she was rolling her eyes at almost every question.

This place has really fallen off when it comes to the quality of the food. It’s hard to find good Chinese food in general but Panda doesn’t even make the effort anymore. Ordered the fried wings tonight bc I figured that couldn’t possibly be messed up. I stand corrected. Of 4 pieces of chicken, only one is actually a “wing”.. can’t even make out what some pieces are bc they are so heavily breaded.. unlike traditional Chinese wings. Overall disappointed and feel like I wasted $15.

The egg rolls were very greasy and I feel like I got shorted on my order. I asked for a pint of an item and it wasn't a pint, but then again, they may not serve it that way. The price wasn't bad though. I think it's just one man and his wife that runs the place.
