Me and my wife love the singing Panda. Their family style Chinese food is really good and the atmosphere is very nice. But their service is second to none. They have very attentive staff. It makes for a very enjoyable evening. But if you really want to have fun you got to find out when the impersonator is going to be on stage.

This was some of the best Chinese food I’ve ever had. It was definitely quality and it came out hot and fast. Portion sizes are a little small for the price but we were full and had a little leftover to take home. Will definitely come back again!

The Singing Panda has a very relaxed and peaceful ambiance. It was very clean and well decorated. The owners and staff are incredibly polite, upbeat and attentive. The cooks are the real deal and did an amazing job with the food, it was delicious! I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for some great Chinese food here in Chandler, AZ.

This place is a hidden gem. I’ve been coming here since 2020. The food is always fresh and delicious. Very consistent great service and great food.

This is a unique place. It has 2 dining rooms - a small one for having a regular meal and a large one that features a musical act as your dinner show. The restaurant is located on a corner lot. The on-premises parking is quite limited, so you will likely have to park on-street in the neighborhood behind the restaurant. That wasn't a problem for us, but we parked about a block and a half away. There was a house party that had taken over tables in the front yard of the house just behind the restaurant. We joked that we might have been able to just eat there, given the crowd... We arrived at around 5:45 p.m. on a Saturday evening. We did not have reservations and intended to sit in the non-show area. As it turned out, that was going to be a requirement, as the show-side *did* require reservations. The shows are timed (so that there are 2 per night (I think) - maybe 5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. ? It is probably listed on their website. We had about a 5-minute wait for a table (that got longer for people who arrived later). The staff is pretty busy with the show-room, but our server stopped by fairly soon. The servers / owners appeared to tag team things, so someone else brought out the food versus the drinks, etc. The menu was fairly typical of an American Chinese restaurant, though they do have some dishes that are more on the authentic end of the spectrum. When the food arrived, everyone seemed to enjoy their dishes. I had the Ma Po Tofu, which I liked. Even though we were seated in the non-show room, the music and singing was still at moderate volume even where we were. This wasn't an issue, but just something to be aware of. The staff seemed to engage the crowd to encourage sing-alongs in the other room. Selections were along the lines of 'Cabaret' and 'Sweet Caroline'. We happened to finish up around the time the show wrapped up. This made paying the bill slightly harder, as all the servers were especially slammed at that point. I brought the check up to the register to save them the trouble and got checked out fairly quickly from that point. There was a large crowd out front when we left; I wasn't sure if it was the first show audience lingering around before leaving or the second show audience waiting to get in. Lunch may be quite different (sans show), but I didn't experience that. Overall, though, this was worth visiting just for the novelty value. The food was good too.

Food was excellent and the live entertainment was great! One man show!! Never had orange beef (instead of orange chicken) but my date ordered it and it was DELICIOUS!! Not too much breading and beef was still flavorful. I LOVE really spicy food and they were on the money with the spice level (not for the faint of heart!) I also ordered a fun drink (can't remember the name? had something to do with marijuana?) and it was delicious! Our waitress was so sweet and I felt bad because my date was a little moody with her and she waited til he left the table to ask me if he was ok... I wish I remembered her name so I could apologize. I made sure she got a good tip.

Food and drinks were good. The singers add some atmosphere. Kind of a gimmicky, one time place, but would recommend checking it out if you've never been.

Finally went to this gem of a restaurant! The food was awesome, staff was amazing and the entertainment was excellent!! We will definitely be returning, many times!!
Wow! My family and I came in from out of town. We were simply in the mood for asian cuisine and found this place through google. Once we were seated the manager/owner said she had a cancellation and if we wanted to see the show. We had no idea they had live entertainment. The show was great. The food was delicious, and it was really nice to see that the crew of the restaurant were like family. It is a great restaurant, with a great environment and we definitely recommend going there for the show. We will be back next time we are in the area.
