“This is The Best Chinese Restaurant around!!!! Fresh, flavorful and fast! Our favorite!!!“

“It was SO good. I got beef with broccoli. My daughter got shrimp lo mein. We both got the chicken egg roll- it was full and crispy. They were all SO good. I am VERY picky. This meets up with all my high standards. Pickup was fast. I did it online through the store's website. There was so much stuffed into my bowl it lasted 2 days. I will definitely order from here again. The restaurant looked cute and it was not busy at 6:30pm. If your looking for GOOD Chinese food at decent prices- it's worth it to eat here. I will be back to try some new things!!“

“Hands down the best in the area. Food is fresh, generous servings, clean and pleasant to sit down and relax for a great meal. Takeout never disappoints too.“

“Best Chinese food in the area. I eat here often and the food is always fresh and delicious. The employees are super nice.“

“Awesome sushi!! Never disappoints!“

“Have never been disappointed with anything I've ordered. Flavors are great and portions are large. The orange chicken is my favorite. I'm not a sushi fan but what I've had there has been great. It is BYOB and I do believe there is a corking fee.“

“Came in for takeout and there was no one inside eating . Lady at the counter was really nice and my food maybe took 15 minutes got a lunch special and it only cost a little bit over $10. Not bad for the amount of food I got. Said it was supposed to be spicy and it wasn't to me, but still was good :)“

“Taipei is by far the best sushi and Chinese restaurant in the Fox Chapel area. The servers are courteous and the specialty sushi rolls are noticeabley larger and tastier than Jimmy Wan's. In my opinion, Taipei also offers a better selection than Jimmy Wan's. We also appreciate Taipei's complimentary fried wontons served before each meal and orange slices provided at the end of service. This family-friendly restaurant always make us feel at home.“

“The food is very good, as is the service. There's no place to sit. It's great for local, I want American Chinese food The prices are very fair and it's where I go when I'm looking for affordable, good+, something different from burgers or other fat food. They normally will have a phones in order ready in 15 to 20 minutes. So, call ahead, get in, get 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.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“We love the taste and freshness of their food. Their wonton soup has the right blend of saltiness and spice. The shrimp cashew has nice big, flavorful shrimp and fresh veggies. You sometimes have to be specific and tell them exactly what you like and they will oblige. My only criticism is that their egg rolls have a funny taste, like they add ginger (which I don't care for). Other than that, this restaurant knows how to cook your favorite Chinese meals.“

“Very delicious, not a lot of places like this in my area.“

“A pretty typical Chinese food place. The food is good and fairly priced- you even get the egg roll with your meal. The restaurant is a little dimly lit and no one greeted me when I walked in. But, when someone was able to come she was very polite and quick to get me taken care of. We will be getting more food from here for sure.“

“Jimmy Wan's Foxchapel is one of the standout restaurants in all of Pittsburgh. Amazing food, excellent drinks, great staff, and wonderful ambiance and lighting. I recommend to everyone.“

“Every time I order, it’s always hot, fresh and so delicious! Best Chinese food in the area, hands down!“

“I enjoy their food. Shrimp egg foo young is one of my go tos and theirs comes with a gravy that's different than the one the average Chinese restaurant gives its so delicious. The egg rolls are good too and I'm super picky about egg rolls. All in all definitely recommend them“

“Hot & sour soup. (Rainy day? Easy fix)
Pork lo mein!! (Do it)
Sauteed string beans (vegetarians take note)
Steamed rice please.
No. 5 spicy!!!
Lunch special, yes
A working class delight!“

“Very good food! I got the Hunan Delight, my husband got Royal Family, and my son got Crispy Honey Shrimp. Everything was fresh, hot, and quickly served. Lots of big pieces of tasty vegetables, and served with white rice. The waitresses were very pleasant and the price was right. We'll be back again!“

“Lived around the corner for years. Zen is awesome, don’t let the looks deceive you. Dinner or lunch bento box is a great deal, and the sushi is shockingly good. Inside/atmosphere is basically pick up your order and bounce as opposed to a sit down dinner spot but imo this is more of a takeout spot anyways. Definitely recommend.“

“Yo this place was a banger. The staff were on top of my drinks and the food was absolutely SCHMACKIN. I would go back every day if I could. I cannot stress how good this place was. But these weird white people kept looking at me like they've never seen a Korean person before.“
