Really appreciated the size and diversity of vegan menu. Got a tofu dish and a vegan chicken dish. My non-vegan partner and dog shared one animal product and it was bagged separately which really impressed me. I ordered online and could not confirm if Lo Mein was vegan, but would really love to know if someone goes there in person and can report back 👌

Average food, average service, but better than average for the area

I don't trust the apparent lack of sanitation in this and most Chinese buffets

Panda Garden – An Unexpected Gem in the Boonies

I was driving back from the Berkshires this weekend, enjoying the beautiful, scenic views, when my stomach suddenly began to grrrrrrowl. I passed a couple of gas stations and a pizza joint, but then—out of nowhere—I spotted a place called Panda Garden. Way out here in the boonies? I thought to myself, I’m kinda craving some soup and noodles, so I turned the truck around and pulled into a quaint little parking lot.

To my delight, I walked into a cozy, welcoming Chinese restaurant. I was greeted with warm smiles and promptly seated in a quiet corner. They brought out iced water, hot tea, and—surprisingly—two menus. That caught my attention. Two menus? I’ve only seen this in Chinatown or in rare spots that serve authentic dim sum. Could it be?

I glanced at the regular menu first and placed my order—I was starving. But then I realized I’d forgotten to look at the second menu tucked underneath. I asked the server if I could hang onto it a bit longer. As I flipped through it, I was stunned—it was an authentic Chinese menu, filled with dishes I usually only find in major cities. And the prices? Straight out of the ’80s!

Seriously, I haven’t seen prices like this since high school. For example, Salted Fish & Chicken Fried Rice—something that would run close to $30 in Jupiter, Florida—was only $9.95 here. Seafood Pan-Fried Noodles for $14.95? Wowee. I’m going to be eating here a lot when I move to the Berkshires.

Now, maybe it was because I was starving to death, but I swear—this was the best egg drop soup and lo mein I’ve had in a long, long time. It completely hit the spot and made my stomach stop growling.

My only problem now? I was ready for a nap on my long drive home! 😂

This seems to be mostly a takeout spot. It lacks the mouth-watering crave-ability that some Chinese restaurants have, but it’s a reliable standby and the food is consistent. When you need a packed container of chicken lo mein to soothe the soul, it’s nice to have Panda Garden a call away.

what a hidden gem! my husband and i were just looking for a quick bite and ended up dining in and the food was so good. service was quick and super friendly :). We’ll definitely have to come back here the next time we’re in town!

Nice place and quiet, good food.
Nice place for spend some time with family.

Always good! also can ask for spicey or not.
Great cuisine!!!

Amazing wonton soup and fantastic tofu, will absolutely be coming back!

I've giving this place 5 stars across the board because they are so friendly, so fast, online ordering works perfectly, and they get to know you if you're a regular. The food is always exactly what it needs to be. It's fun exploring their gourmet menu too. Try to wontons in red oil, so good!
