I stopped going to the Panda about twelve months back. It seemed that after Bob retired that the service and quality had decreased.
Today I decided to give them another try and by Georgio, I think they have the touch back. My two favorites have always been the Hot and Sour Soup (the best in all of Charlotte - I even tried to buy the recipe!) and the Hunan Beef. So that is what I ordered for lunch today - my two most favorite Pandas Den dishes. Service was very good today. The food was heavenly. The atmosphere was quite (my favorite sound in any restaurant). I found myself sitting and drinking hot tea for some time after my meal. It was a good experience. I will definitely start going more often and using them for meetings and gatherings again.
