“If you’re looking for authentic Punjabi food—not a westernized version—this is definitely the place to visit. We had the egg bhurji and paneer paratha, and I have to say, they were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. I recently moved here from NYC, so that says a lot! Highly recommended. Tip- don’t judge the book by its cover.“

I can't wait to go there again, it looks like they have really pulled it together!“

“Tried for the first time tonight! So good and very reasonable to feed my 3 big guys and myself! The pulled pork is good even without the sauce but the sauce is great! The Carolina vinegar based sauce is good too! The beans and tater tots were great! Great option for those crazy evenings with 3 different sports going on and a hungry family on a budget.“

“I must say, this place is much improved over the years. Originally I left a one star review because everytime I ordered at the drive thru, my order was wrong. After driving 18 miles home twice to discover I had the wrong order, I finally learned to check my order before driving away. I did in fact get the wrong order several times. The last several times, everything is fine. I will definitely contuine to have breakfast biscuits at times.“

“loved they're biscuits and the chicken was crispy. also the tea was good. Az crew“

“Me and my family eat at Hardee’s every Sunday morning, it’s a tradition we started when our daughter was a child. Since we gave one in Blountville now it is closer to us and that’s where we go. We all have come to love the ladies who work there. They are sweet and friendly. We usually always get gravy and biscuits it’s always good and hot.“

“Awesome,fast, and fresh food.
Such sweet kind workers really made the visit all around 100 🌟 . Employees made my visit as good as the fresh awesome food. I got their names ... at the end of my meal just to show how awesome the service was. Thanks to Patty, Isaac, James, Maddox, Josh, and Gavin. I will be back! Thankyou burger king for feeding my family tonight at a great price. 👍“

“great food, great kind service, and food is always correct“

“The service was fantastic! Everyone was very polite, the food was hot and came out fast! The dining room was clean and stocked, bathrooms were clean and stocked! Also wanted to add, I never eat hush puppies I normally dislike them but actually enjoyed theirs very much. If I didn’t live in NC I would come here often!“

“Just came from there,they were covered up with customers,had to wait for about 25 minutes to get my food but it was hot and very tasty.All the employees were on the ball getting work done.So proud of the job the employees did making sure they satisfied all customers.“

“Visited tonight, seemed to be a after Church rush inside and the drive thru was wrapped around. What I noticed from the staff was outstanding, you could tell it was a absolute overwhelming time. Those young folks handled it with calm and stayed focused on getting orders out timely. Noticed the person working the window, also overwhelmed but handled the rush very well!!!! All of them deserve a bonus.“

“always fair priced and nice staff“

“Wife and I love Top Dog. A quick affordable lunch or early dinner is always a treat. The hot dogs are good, and the toppings are tasty. Support this little local dog shop when you're in Bristol. Right off Volunteer Parkway and right down the road from us, making this a frequent stop.“

“Sammons Hot Dogs has been a favorite for years. The food is always delicious, the menu has something for everyone, and the service is consistently friendly. I especially love their slider dogs and the strawberry lemonade. It’s also a place that goes the extra mile by offering dog treats, which makes every visit even better. Great food, great people, and a fun local spot I’m always happy to support.“

“First time at Pals. Tried the chipped ham and unsweetened tea. The chipped ham was delicious. The ham played off the pickles and mayo just fine. I'd be tempted to add cheese next time if I wasn't watching the fat. Tea was perfect.“

“I can't believe it!!! I actually ate at a fast food restaurant that is worth talking about and I don't feel ripped off. The food was hot, very well put together and the service was great! My roast beef sandwich was so tasty and the potatoes cakes were hot and fresh. I was in a hurry so I used the drive thru and it was lightning fast. The lady at the window was even smiling. Now that's rare nowadays because most people don't provide great customer service. Way to go Arby's!! This location just hit a grandslam!!!“

“Super Clean and Super Friendly Folks! we enjoyed the Shrimp, Fish, Fries, Hush Puppies and of course the CRUNCHIES!“

“We always receive great service here. Tonight especially, the workers in the drive thru were very sweet.“

“Went through the drive thru last night. They must be short handed as I paid they brought the food to the car in front of me then asked me to pull up to wait for mine. The classic sandwich was good. The chicken salad was lacking the pecan in its name and was a little dry. Still better "fast" food than most others on the parkway.“

“We always enjoy going to Jersey Mikes and getting our favorite Hoagie …but you know it is a special place when Becky remembers what kind of sandwich you get and she has not seen you in awhile ( she was on vacation !) Becky ALWAYS GREATS US LIKE FAMILY !! She makes us feel VERY SPECIAL when we drop in for lunch. We even got to meet her Mom and Dad a couple of months ago…and the friendliness of her family is AMAZING !! We sure do know what store we are going to when it is Jersey Mikes Day !! The store is always clean and the staff is always friendly and FUN !!
Thanks to all of your Great staff for MAKING OUR DAY AND OUR LUNCH FANTASTIC !!
Annette and Chuc“

“We were very satisfied with our experience at this subway yesterday afternoon, not only did the employee place our sandwiches each in a separate basket so that we would know which one is which but everything was fresh including our bread and this was the cleanest subway I've ever been to in tri cities.“

“Best sushi 🍣 around!! Bar none!!“

“Delicious with pleasant outdoor seating.“

“Every time we go to the one on Bristol Hwy and Jeanine is working it’s a great experience she is the best at what she does we usually have a problem with some of the others not wanting to make our sandwich the way we like ( nothing ever over the top) and her personality is so cheerful and welcoming and the place is always clean! We always go back at least once a week and if she isn’t working we go to a whole different restaurant!“

“The staff here are Very welcoming and nice the food was fresh. The restaurant was clean and to beat it all they gave my dog a pup cup.! One of the best Arby’s visits I’ve had in a long time definitely will be my new go to location“

“I just left the drive-thru and I'm so impressed by Audrey and Robert! Audrey took my order with such a warm, friendly attitude, and Summer had my food ready instantly and it was perfect! They made my day and definitely deserve recognition for being great at their jobs. They both also should get a raise !!“

“Of all fast foods, Wendy's burgers are actually beefy and tasty. I say that because my last burger from McDs was underdone and you could tell the meat was old. Thank you, Wendy's, for a great burger and of course love the Frosty.“

“Wanted to shout out the crew at the Bristol Va store #037662. We have been ordering from this location for about 6-8 months and the staff (Ashley in particular) has been gracious and making a seemingly mundane task of ordering food a fun experience. The food is always fresh and quality is great. We had an issue with the last pizza not being very hot and spoke with Ashley tonight prior to ordering and she ensured the door dash driver placed the pizza in a delivery bag to keep it hot. Pizza came piping hot and yet another fast and great order from this location and staff, they deserve some kudos.“

“Went in today at lunch and it was very busy. EVERYONE working was very pleasant and nice! Spoke with 2 of the female employees making my sandwich and very much enjoyed the conversation. Remember when you go into any business....Please treat the employees with Kindness! We are all human!

5/23/25 I did an app order. The app applied the wrong time. I called the store... as ALWAYS NICE, not a problem , no BS. They changed the time , food PERFECT! Thank you guys for being in this small town!!!“

“Clean, welcoming, fresh food, quick service!
Simply great experience! Parking was easy even with our big truck. Staff welcomed us as soon as we came in and were helpful and pleasant! Very clean restaurant. Food was all fresh and delicious! They even have the flavored lemonades which are a fantastic idea! We haven't seen that yet at Panda. Absolutely would recommend this Panda Express.

I read over the previous lower reviews and it seems that they were about people who would show up at 9:59 and be bothered they were closing or people who just didn't like this type of food. The other type of negative review were people who could have just asked the staff for help to fix minor things, but instead wanted to whine online! C'mon people!

Summary, this Panda was great and glad we came!

$47 for three plates (2 entree's + 1 side each) plus 2 fountain sodas and 1 flavored lemonade. Comes with fortune cookies!“
