Panda Kitchen offers delicious and affordable Chinese-American cuisine with generous portion sizes. Customers enjoy classic dishes like orange chicken, Kung Pao beef, honey walnut prawns, and beef chow mein, along with boba drinks and fish & chips. The restaurant surprises with fresh, made-to-order combos, such as the green bean chicken, chow mein, and fried rice. The Thai tea is recommended, and the fortune cookies are a nice touch.
The ambiance is simple and no-frills, with the food as the main focus. The staff, an accommodating older couple, provides courteous service. However, the location in a less desirable area of Oakland Downtown raises concerns, especially with many unsavory characters hanging out right in front. The restaurant can also be slow during busy hours, particularly for takeout orders. It is advisable to order online for quicker service.
Panda Kitchen is one of the few places still serving cheap Chinese food in Oakland, located right across from the Main Oakland Public Library and near Lake Merritt. With over 8 years in business, it has become a reliable spot for casual, comforting meals. The portions are huge, often enough to feed two, making it a good choice for those looking for decent food on a budget. For those unsure of what to order, food items are displayed on the walls, and total prices are shown on the tables, ensuring transparency. Highly recommended for anyone in the area seeking a hole-in-the-wall dining experience.
