| - I agree with the precious review; many of the dishes were not not available when I came in. I was told that I would have to wait 5 minutes for most of the dishes to come out, so I did. 10 minutes later, I was still waiting. Eventually someone noticed I was still waiting, apologized and offered me a free drink. I ended up getting the orange chicken, walnut shrimp and mandarin beef (crispy beef). The food was not that bad, typical Chinese takeout, but a little healthier. I think that the fried rice was brown rice. Note that the walnut shrimp is considered a premium item and has an additional charge.
While I don't have complaints about the servers, the manager of the place did act very professionally. With an open kitchen, customers can watch their food being cooked and any interactions in the kitchen. That day, the manager reprimanded one of the cooks; not only did this slow down the food being prepared, but it was unprofessional. As I watched, I felt very bad for the guy; he was only one of two cooks, and from the time that I got there, he was cooking fast and hard. I think that Panda Express needs to hire more cooks to have food ready to go, as they are a fast food/ take out restaurant, and consider better training for their managers.
