This global franchise set foot in Manila in 2019 and received a warm welcome when its Filipino patrons flocked in to dine. The Orange Chicken is the most popular among its classic asian menu. I can’t tell the difference on the taste from what I’ve tried in LA. The price dont hurt the pocket with a serving size that is filling enough.
Another check on my bucket list. The food that we ordered were sooo good and will definitely go back.
Freshly made! You can see the cooks constantly tossing their woks in the background. Some people will hate the hype and the long line that comes with it. But it is what it is. A cheap Chinese takeaway. Albeit glorified - but it tastes good, big portions and very affordable.
Had the orange chicken (flagship) and Kung Pao chicken. It has a bit of a kick (spicy) so kids, tread carefully. Will definitely go back. But only if the line is decent.
The food is good. The portions is also good. I just didnt
like the beijing beef, it was hard to chew and caused me a tooth ache hehe.

Food here is nice. I always order the bigger plate and I have to eat it for two days. Super cheap! As a person who is not a fan of bell peppers, I am somewhat disappointed on how they serve you with lots of white onions and bell peppers. Which is by the way, I guess are their key ingredients. Like, every time I order, white onions and bell peppers dominating my plate. One time I order, I got 4pcs of shrimp and the rest are bell peppers and white onions.
Chow Mein - dry but taste alright. You won't feel like you want another round.
Fried Rice - the bomb! Super delicious and very sinful.
Mixed Veggies - more on the bland side but healthy option.
Beijing Beef - flavor wise, super delicious. No wonder it is always sold out. It taste like sweet and sour but with a kick of spice but the meat was tough.
Savory Shrimp - the shrimps are juicy. Not too salty. Just right.
Orange Chicken - this is sooo good but sweet. Sweet as an orange. :P
Kung Pao Chicken - not a fan of this entrée. I find it weird since it is watery.
Broccoli Beef - I think they don't use beef. When I was eating this entrée I keep on thinking that this is not beef or is it? To the point I didn't enjoy my meal but yes, definitely for me, that this is pork. The softest pork lean meat.
I tried all the entrées that I want to try before doing this review.
I notice that sometimes they got the order wrong when they are few weeks running like you order for Savory Shrimp but they put Orange Chicken on your plate. So you have to look out your order. It is best to order your food in take out as dine in line is always long.

This restaurant reminds me of my US trips with my Asian tummy cravings for rice! Love the menu and the flexibility with servings. Good food with good service and price points are very reasonable
Was so excited to try Panda Express after I tried it back in New York. Ordered the orange chicken, chow mein, shanghai beef, and a couple of appetizers - egg rolls and wonton cream cheese. The chow mein tasted as good as I remembered. And the flavors of the chicken were close. However, I can't help but feel like there's something that tastes off - the meats were a bit on the tougher side than I remembered - but then again, it was years ago since I tried the one in the US. The novelty is there, and the experience of opening your own fortune cookie and reading it did not disappoint. In terms of flavors though, I'm not so sure I would go back a second time around, to be honest.
Just right. Heaven. I feel at home. DELISH.
Warning : the Chinese that migrated to the US during the gold rush in the 1940's made food like panda Express and if ya didn't know fortune cookies were invented in california at the time. So I know Filipinos will shrug this place off cause they've tasted "authentic chinese food" since you are close to china but to us in the US "Chinese fast food" is a staple... just like how they invented "California Rolls" in california its variations to cater to the US. Lol. I hope everyone that's hating on this spot realizes this. Otherwise... great food!

Everybody has been waiting for Panda Express to open here in PH and finally! It's here! :) So during the first week of it's opening, we were in Megamall and decided to pass by and see this newly opened Panda Express and wow the line was long. There was a line at the side for priority and take out. There was another line in front of the store as well for those on waiting list for dine in. And there was another line at the stairs near french baker extension for those on waiting list. HAHA grabe! Good thing I was with my mom so we didn't have to wait in line since she was senior soooo priority ;) heheheAnd so we ordered 2 orders of PLATE (2 entrees + 1 side) I got the premium savory shrimp and famous orange chicken. And my mom got Broccoli Beef and Eggplant Tofu. We both got half half of chow mein and fried rice for the sides. After the first bite, wowwww we think the hype is worth it! Everything was so good! ♥♥♥ (except the chow mein was kinda tasteless) Nothing else to say cause we will definitely be coming back to try the other entrees and im already craving again right now hahaha

I worked at several panda express stores for about 2 years. Ate there nearly everyday. It's not "authentic" asian cuisine, but it's good. The food display is very appealing. Everything looked great. The staff was friendly and the manager was even the first person that greets you and serves you. Order was served in an speedy and efficient manner.
I ordered the orange chicken with chow mein plus a chicken egg roll. I had to order for take out because I didn't want to wait in that long line. But even for take out I had to wait. By the time I got home the food was a little cold, so the taste of the food was off but didn't ruin it. I've eaten left over panda express before and it still taste good. The orange chicken was good (a little dry and could've been better but understandable with the constant cooking needed to fill serving trays) and tastes just like it does in the US, the chow mein was a little too hard, but it was still good. The chicken egg roll was mostly mushy chicken inside. I couldn't finish it. Overall the food and staff were the best part, but the line really makes it not worth it. Maybe when the hype dies then it'll be better.
