GEE is the best worker this restaurant has ever been graced with. She was so kind when taking our orders, and gave us a genuine feeling of connection within this establishment. I will be returning just because of GEE, she made me feel welcome like no one ever has.

This is our favorite Panda. Their Orange Chicken is consistently crispy, the people working here work very hard, and service is always excellent despite being often incredibly busy. Panda employee Gee always greets us with a smile and with top-notch service. Thank you Gee & everyone at Rosemead Panda :-)

Made a quick stop at this location Rosemead, order a plate: chow mein steam rice orange chicken and kung pao chicken. They messed up the order. Gave the store a call manager made it seem like it was my fault. Will no longer going to this location CHECK YOUR ORDER before leaving: I do not recommend it.

Ordered food at 1:20pm Food Text Ready at 1:30pm 1:45pm I’m still waiting for my food. Didn’t get food until 1:50pm Understaffed. Lines move slow. Staff doesn’t openly communicate that they don’t have some of items ready even though the order was scanned to be completed. No estimated wait time. No apology.
By far one of the worst experience when it was NOT busy.

My wife is from Thailand. She has been in the USA since May of 2024. She applied online either with Panda or Indeed.com. Regardless the Panda people liked her application and requested an interview that lasts 6 hours. The interview was on Tuesday August 5th, from 9am to 3pm. She arrived the Panda Express at 8:30am. The people that interviewed her did not arrive until 11am. She waited 2 hours to be interviewed. That is unacceptable. When the Panda people arrived, they criticized her clothing and shoes. My wife actually asked what specifically to wear and what shoes to wear for the interview. She did not get a response from Panda. Her first task was to memorize the 20 plus symbols for taking orders. She had 20 minutes to do this, which is not enough time. She then was asked to do the “cooking”. The Panda Interviewers were talking bad about her the entire time she was cooking. They made comments like “it is obvious that she has never worked in a restaurant before”, “ it appears that she has never even cooked before”, and “ it is obvious she has never worked in the USA before”. First off, her application and resume never stated that she worked in a restaurant. It also stated that her only employment was in Thailand. If they would have read these two documents that she provided they would have known this. Secondly, cooking in a home kitchen is much different than cooking in a commercial kitchen. Everything is so much larger and heavier. After the cooking, my wife sat down with, I believe 4 Panda people. They were eating while asking her questions, and continuing to be rude with comments. That whole experience was traumatizing for her. She now thinks that all interviews in the USA will be like this. I tried to let her know that will not be the case. Long story short, their people were very rude, and are blaming her for what Panda did not do, in the upfront vetting process. Before you bring someone in for a taking orders and cooking experience interview, you should meet them and vet out the possibility of them being qualified to be on your team or not. The Panda people owe her an apology for how they mistreated her. If i could giver them a negative 5 stars, I would. I will choose to not eat there again.

Food quality needs to be evaluated at this location.
1. Found a broccoli from mixed greens that wasn’t chopped properly. 2. Popular favorites like Orange Chicken and Black Pepper Steak wasn’t readily available during dinner rush hour. 3. Several food items on the steam table that are obviously old should have been thrown out instead of added onto the freshly made food items. 4. I ordered the Honey Sesame Chicken and I could tell it was not cooked long enough and tasted mushy.
I worked at Panda Express for five years. I know the steps and procedures.

Near my hotel. As a Southeast Asian their food will be tastier if they use MSG 🤪🤪🤪.
I love Panda Express, but this experience is something I can’t overlook. I come to this location often after workouts and always order the same Bigger Plate: chicken teriyaki, mushroom chicken, and beef & shrimp. I’ve never had issues with my stomach—until last week.
Roughly 20 minutes after eating, I got food poisoning. At first, I thought it might have been a one-time thing, maybe due to temperature changes or something unrelated. But today, I went back, ordered the exact same meal, and the same thing happened—this time while I was driving home. I started getting intense stomach cramps and felt like I was going to throw up.
Now I’m sitting in the bathroom, literally vomiting like a water fountain, and I’m 100% sure it’s the food from this location. If last time was an accident, this confirms something’s really off here—either in how they’re handling the food or how it’s being prepared.
Please stay away from this place if you don’t want to end up sick. I’m writing this while doubled over in pain, and I wouldn’t wish this on anyone.

Ive been coming here over the past few years and have always had good food and service here. Price and portions are very reasonable.

I would normally never write a review for a Panda Express of all places, but this is an excellent location. Clean, friendly, efficient, delicious. I went here for the Beyond Orange Chicken and it was fantastic. Shout-out to the staff.
