“Asian cafe is our regular Chinese takeout. The service is fast and they are all very nice.We have tried all their lo mein, noodles, pad Thai, general Tso, dumplings, and crab Rangoon and we liked them all. The portions are large and we always have left overs. It is not the best place for dine in but definitely great and convenient for take out.“

“A Journey Back to Panda: The Hidden Gem (right before my eyes)
Our normal takeout spot was unexpectedly closed. We were hungry. We were spiraling.
There are moments in life when the universe conspires to remind you that greatness doesn’t announce itself with gilded menus or sommeliers in bow ties. Sometimes it whispers from a small takeout counter in New Kensington , where it has been whispering for thirty plus years.
I stood there, right before my very eyes, watching steam rise from those containers like incense from a temple. And in that moment, decades collapsed. I was transported back to the 90’s—a hazy, beautiful memory of my younger self clutching a paper bag from Panda, not yet knowing I was holding something extraordinary. But time has a way of validating what we once took for granted.
Fast forward to now. The order arrives. I open the General Tso’s chicken, and I am struck motionless. This isn’t just food—it’s an aria. Each piece: impossibly juicy, fork-tender, draped in a sauce that somehow manages to be both savory and subtle, bold yet restrained. It’s the kind of balance that five-starred kitchens chase and rarely capture. I’ve eaten at renowned Chinese restaurants where celebrity chefs command three-hour waits. I’ve tasted the handiwork of masters in San Francisco’s Chinatown, New York’s Flushing, even Vancouver’s Richmond. And right here, right before my eyes, in this unassuming New Ken takeout, I found something better. The portion? Gargantuan. The value? Almost embarrassing in its generosity.
Then came the chicken lo mein—a mountain of perfectly cooked noodles tangled with vegetables and tender chicken, each strand glistening with that ineffable wok breath that separates the pretenders from the masters. It was huge. The lo mein is the only item that I would offer a mild suggestion: it needed slightly more liquid smoke flavor and the addition of green onions. Portion size means nothing without soul. Add those two ingredients and you give it soul.
And the Hot & Spicy chicken—oh, the restraint! The sauce was light, almost humble, allowing the vegetables to maintain their integrity, letting the chicken speak for itself. No drowning in cornstarch slurry, no aggressive assault of heat masking mediocrity. Just perfect clarity of flavor, right there before my eyes.
For three (maybe four) decades, Panda has been doing this. Quietly. Humbly. While the food world chased trends and accolades, and buffets while “authentic” became a marketing buzzword, Panda simply kept being magnificent. It stood there, a landmark, waiting for those wise enough to notice. Now I notice.
I notice.
I have seen the light, and it glows from a takeout container in New Ken. This is not hyperbole. This is testimony. Panda doesn’t just serve Chinese food—it serves a masterclass in what happens when skill, consistency, and care simmer together for almost forty years.
Just wow. Simply, unforgettably, wow.“

“China Jade has great food and friendly staff! Prices are comparable to other restaurants. You cannnot dine in their building anymore, it is take out only. But they will happily allow you to have a seat inside while you wait for your order if you'd like. You won't be waiting long as they are very fast at prepping the orders. Great place. Have been going here for years and will continue!“
“We recently found this gem for wonderful Asian food. Service is great and the food is exceptional! Vegetables are fresh and the chicken dishes are delicious! Great lunch menu that is reasonable too. The dinner dishes are huge. We have tried other Asian restaurants in the area but Sino Court is by far the best! Pleasant atmosphere for dining in and speedy take out when ordering. We are happy repeat customers!“

“This was our first time here. The wait staff was friendly. The menu has just about anything you'd want. The appetizer and sushi arrived quickly. The meals followed just as we were finishing up the sushi. Everything was fantastic. The sushi rolls was perfect. The shrimp entrees were also! We will definitely be going back!“

“The best General Tso's Tofu in PGH that I've found, and I'm pretty particular. I'm so sad that I no longer live super close to this place. I've never had a bad experience with their food or the people there; they've always been very kind.“

“I really don’t understand the negative reviews at this restaurant. My daughter and I have been ordering from here for years and we’ve also been inside the restaurant to eat many times and we’ve never had a problem. Their food is very good. It’s always hot when we get it And it tastes fresh to us. I was very happy to hear the buffet was back and it’s just as good as it always was. I wouldn’t hesitate to go eat there again. We eat there a couple of times a month.“

“I have been coming here for years never ate inside, always got to go and moved to Brighton Heights 8 years ago. My hair stylist moved to this plaza and I got a to go order. Suprised thatcthey don'tweigh food anymorebut charge $13 for small and $18 for large to go. I got large. Food is still the same after these years... DELICIOUS. Still my favorite Chinese restaurant. A bit dark inside and the lady at the counter is not too friendly. They stopped serving my favorite Dim Sum dish, but I was overall happy. I will be back😋“

“This was such great food they have the best shrimp toast I ever had in my life. Once you eat their shrimp toast you will not like anyone elses. I really wish I knew how to make it. I ordered off one of the food apps for delivery I think it was uber eats a few times, and everything I have had from you guys was really good!“

“Today was very crowded, as expected, since it was Mother's Day. There was a "special" menu today for a slightly higher fee ($22), but it was to include Crab Legs that they rarely have. I go there 1-2 times/month. I was a bit skeptical about the quality and replenishment of the Crab Legs. Oh, my!!! They were fantastic and constantly replenished. This was fantastic! Thank You.. was much appreciated!“

“I don’t understand the low rating for this restaurant. I live in the area and this is my go to for takeout Chinese food. I usually get the chicken and garlic sauce, steamed dumplings, or beef lo mein. I’ve never ordered something I didn’t like. The portions are very generous and their prices are very reasonable.“

“The food was good and so was the service. One of the line workers took the time to ask how my day was going while he prepared my lunch. He seemed to actually care how I was doing. During the meal a.manager stopped by to see if we needed anything else. The restaurant was clean and quite even though it was busy.“
