Asian Panda is a hidden gem that offers consistently good food, making it a popular choice for those seeking affordable Chinese cuisine. The menu includes favorites like Cho Cho's, which is highly recommended, and the Honey Chicken, known for its good taste. The restaurant features a variety of dishes such as combinations like bourbon chicken and vegetable lo mein, and BBQ ribs. Food is generally served hot and promptly. While some dishes may be bland or lack certain ingredients—like the veggie lo mein which was disappointing due to missing expected vegetables and a poor vegetable-to-noodle ratio—the overall experience remains positive. The noodles in the lo mein are doughy, and dishes may sometimes need extra seasoning. The seafood soup is less than mediocre, being bland and tasteless with imitation crab meat and eggs. Despite this, the food is tasty enough, and the atmosphere is simple, with a small dining area that feels typical of Chinese takeout places. The staff are friendly, and parking is convenient since the restaurant is located in the same shopping plaza as Rouses. Although service can be a bit rushed and the ambiance basic, Asian Panda remains a good option for quick, affordable Chinese food.
