“Good food, lots of selection. place is clean and good service.“

“So today my family wanted pick up stix and I didn't want to get pickup stix due to the odd interaction I had last time I went in. I have been going to this location for years and have never had any issue besides the last visit. There is a cashier that is an older gentleman who refuses to give extra sauce and will literally go back and forth over a couple sauce packets. I am buying for 3 people and the 2 siracha that he said is already in the bag is not enough. I decided oh well it probably will not be a thing today, but unfortunately the same guy today did it again. I asked him what the issue was and he stated that the sauce is in the bag already. I asked do I need to pay for extra sauce and if so I will, he stated no I don't need to then finally agreed to give me sauce. I have never ran into this situation ever at any restraunt where when I am paying for the meal I have to argue and ask several times for a couple extra packets of sauce. It's wild and unprofessional to think you need to argue with a customer over 4 siracha packets.“

“On arrival there was no wait except the host had difficulty finding us a table, even though there were multiple empty tables. Food came out very quick, fresh, hot. Waitress was helpful - if you are a member online you get free refillable edamame. It was a little expensive but totally worth it!“

“Good food with great service“

“the waitress was very nice and the food was good 👍 😋 👌“

“' ' ' ' We Love The House Special Fried Rice. Yum Yum Yum 😋🤤🤤🤤. Great Staff Very Great Nice People. ' ' ' '“

“I Wok Chinese kitchen offer selection and quality dishes.We enjoyed the salted pepper chicken wings and house chow fan. It had delicious sauce with great ingredients and the chicken was perfectly seasoned. The server was really welcoming and helpful! Definitely love this place for Chinese food.“

“We have eaten here multiple times and have never been disappointed. This time around we ordered 81. General Tao's Chicken, 37. Assorted Wonton Soup, and the 21. Egg Roll (4). My wife was feeling under the weather and the soup brightened her mood. She said it was exactly what she needed. The egg rolls were crisp and fresh. General Tao's Chicken was absolutely delicious. There are chilies in the dish. So, be aware if you are spice averse.

I highly recommend eating in person as well. It's a very nice restaurant and a great place to go for a midweek meal as well as special occasions.

Looking forward to trying other dishes on their extensive menu!“

“Nostalgia, hits in the childhood
The food, ambience and price is perfect. This place actually cares about taste, texture and heigeine.the food sits right with me and doesnt hurt my stomach like other small chinese food places. As long as they continue to operate the way they do I WILL NEVER stop giving them my business. 10/10 the independently owned corner chinese food place ive been looking for.“

“Unfortunately, I could barely contain myself when the food came. It was super delicious and can’t wait to go back! I didn’t get the name of our server but she was an older lady. That helped me decide on all my choices for dinner tonight. Thank you for the good experience and good food. Looking forward to coming back“

I wll be back and I do recommend this restaurant.
5 stars for food staff and restaurant.“

“I been going get for a long time now, and still never gets old!! Personally the salted pepper chicken wings is PERFECT! The service is amazing and they are super quick. The employees are super nice and caring as they also remember their customers (like me). The atmosphere of the place is kinda meh but who cares, am just here for the food.“

“The Sesamed honey chicken is delicious I even started eating before taking the photo. The staff was super nice and the service was quick. This is going to be my new spot. If you’re in the area I really recommend coming out and giving it a look. Thank you guys and I will be back.“

“I love love love this place!!! My WIFE introduced me to them...the food is so yummy!!“

“First off, we LOVE the lady behind the counter. If you don't like her, you don't appreciate the hustle. And furthermore, the food is delicious.“

“I have eaten Vietnamese cuisine throughout California, and Grandpa Tao ranks among the best. In addition to the amazing tastes, the casual restaurant is friendly and comfortable. Ingredients are fresh, the environment clean and relaxing. I particularly recommend the Pho, the Rice Vermicelli (try it!) and the Shaking beef. You'll like it.“

“We got 2 combo plates (B) and i single (A) and man they load up the food! We got chow mein and rice as sides and beef & broccoli 🥦 Coconut 🥥 Shrimp 🍤 and Orange 🍊 Chicken 🐔. Honestly, it's enough food to split. I got an extra plate, which I probably didn't need. We took a lot home. The chow main was delicious, but the rice was pretty bland. The main dishes were good too. The service was fine. The place itself isn't much for atmosphere or decoration, it's pretty plain. Also to note, a few doors down there is an over 18 only pub or bar, and lots of guys were standing outside smoking.“

“I was hangry after a workout and was at the laundry.

I ordered beef and broccoli 🥦. The portion size is ample and generous. It was near closing time.

The sauce was meh and I believe a main ingredient was missing. I couldn't enjoy the meal because the beef was not tender and it became increasingly frustrating to sort through for chewable beef.
I also couldn't pick the beef and cook it at home. I tossed the meal because I live too far to return. And I sense it would be resistance to fix the meal.

I would say this restaurant is also overpriced. I essentially trashed $20 bucks. I will unlikely return.“

“This place is so good. The food is fresh and hot. Most of all delicious. I enjoy the salt and pepper nuggets and hit and sour soup but other family members enjoyed the orange tofu. Oh and the Thai tea was yummy too. I am so glad to have this spot in my neighborhood. Its a bit warm in the restaurant but that's cause the kitchen is open and very busy.“

“Got ubereats from there. Amazing taste and HUGE portions.“

“The service was excellent and the waiting time was lest than 5 minutes. The only problem was that the cashier gave me incorrect change. The cashier corrected the mistake even though it was busy. Good customer service. I'll be back.“

“For the owner/manager, please respond if seen:

Ordered dinner from here to-go as we live about 25 minutes away. My family ate at Panda Country Restaurant in Clairemont for generations back to my great-grandparents. I so miss the old-school decor with the slanted roof, dark woods, tons of rich artwork everywhere. We were sad and disappointed when they decided to close during covid, although they always seemed to have customers when we went for our to-go orders during that time.

Heard through the grapevine that this restaurant had new ownership in Santee. Noticed in the review photos some of the same artwork, metal kettles of complimentary jasmine tea that came with every order for dine-in, same menu and emblem design.

Ordered some of our “usuals” that I was raised on:

- Orange Chicken - tasted nearly the same as I remember but needs more dried orange peels (they make all the difference!) and they used to put whole red peppers. It was tasty but there needs to be more sauce and the sauce used to be thicker and richer in flavor.

- Almond Chicken - had large zucchini slices which was fine and the chicken was in larger slices than they used to be which used to be more of a strip style. Loved that almonds were in it but they used to put tons of sliced, halved almonds. It came with whole almonds with the skin still on, please remove the skins! Again, there could be more sauce as well as thicker and richer in flavor.

- Mongolian Beef - this probably resembled the most to how I remember this recipe. We have had a hard time finding it with green onions elsewhere, which we love! Onions could be sliced a little smaller and the sauce a little thicker and richer in flavor. But it was good!

- Egg Flower soup - very similar in flavor but needs a little more egg in it and they never used to put corn. There were small bits of corn, not bad, but not what I grew up with and miss. Do not overdo it with the gelatin in making the broth too thick. I saw this in another review too.

I think we will order from here again, but would love to see everything resemble the greatness of what these recipes once were. I think everything could use a little more salt too. Sorry to see that some reviews mentioned undercooked food. The meat all seemed well-cooked for our order, so I hope they have since made changes.

P.S. I didn’t see it on the menu, but PLEASE bring back the Shrimp Toast. Also, the ginger slices in vinegar, red cherry applesauce, and hot mustard if you don’t already still have it. Absolutely LOVED the Shrimp Toast as a little girl.“

“They have delicious food. Everytime I have the opportunity to go there, I do!!👍🏿“

“Quick and easy, good food, great rewards program and easy parking. Sometimes, feel a bit rushed through and area to eat is small but clean. The tea and Lychee drinks are fantastic.

Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options but if you're picky about oil used, just ask.

Parking: The location in Rancho San Diego can be tricky to park close but there's a huge parking lot nearby if you don't mind crossing the little parking lot road. There are other businesses nearby if multiple options are needed and there's a Soapy Joe's car wash if you need a car wash. Otger locations are available all over the city with a drive through in south bay near Notth Island Credit Union Amphitheater and Sesame place water park.“

“I recently visited Panda Express and had a really great experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served hot. My favorite was the Orange Chicken—it had the perfect balance of sweet and tangy with just the right amount of crispiness. The portion sizes were generous, especially for the price, which made it a great value.“

“I got a two entree plate after work yesterday, very tired and the young lady at the register was very sweet. She was really patient with me when I asked her about the food and even offered a sample of their refreshers. I believe her tag read Melonie/Melanie. Definitely one of the better experiences I’ve had at this location. Will be coming back.“

“After trying the dan dan noodles at a vegan pop-up market today, I can not stop thinking about them! The noodles, the OmniPork, the crisp veggies. Amazing. My boyfriend had the spring rolls and really liked them. I am looking forward to trying the rest of the menu because the whole menu looks fantastic! The staff was super friendly, and the portions were generous. Who can complain about vegan Chinese food? I can not, as it is challenging to find and is one of my favorite cuisines. I will continue to support this local restaurant and recommend giving it a try!“

“The team who works here is a well oiled machine. In the 10 minutes I was in the store they must have run through 25 plus people. Brissa in particular was running through online orders smoothly and managing customer expectations like an expert. The food also came out fresh which was a bonus for my family!“

“We ordered the pork egg rolls. They were delicious 😋. Just be aware that there’s a dated menu on Google with prices listed as $7.65 for 6 pieces and a second updated menu on their actual website with a price listed as $10.95 for 6 pieces.“

“I used to delivery drive for Pizza Hut for years in Chula Vista and Bonita. I live in La Mesa and have been dying to have a Pizza Hut location that will deliver to me. Finally it is here! Pizza Hut Express in grossmont.
I've had three deliveries so far and everything is perfection.
Pizza Hut is the best pizza ever in my book - especially the stuffed crust. Everybody else gets the stuffed crust wrong - everyone. Pizza hut has always had the best dough - thanks to the dough masters.
You will be really happy with your experience.“

“I waited to be seated just as the sign says. I noticed other people were going in after me and being seated. So much for respecting the rules. Before I got angry enough to leave I was finally asked if I was alright, huh? One of my guests was late but was not offered a drink he had to ask. Most of the food was either sweet or bland. Not a wide range of flavors that I am used to for a Chinese restaurant. The staff was nice, I especially liked having a 7-9 year old girl ringing us up. I was joking about her checking people out but, turned out she actually was taking peoples bill. It's an experience for sure. Very relaxed environment no rush and no tip guilt.“

“Amazing and delicious! But sometimes it sucks. I don't know if its because the food gets worse while sitting under a heat lamp OR because the chef on the other half of the week is bad at cooking. But make sure you try to get the most freshly cooked options because you will feel the difference in quality.“
