" Always love the atmosphere at Panda Garden Buffet, and it's usually busy when we arrive. The prices are reasonable, and while I’ve had dishes that were hot and fresh, I had one recent experience where the food was surprisingly cold. I'll definitely keep coming back though because of the shrimp options! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a reliable Asian buffet, Panda Garden has a reasonable selection. The sushi options could use an upgrade, but I find that their hot food section has some great choices. I always fill up on their chicken dishes. It would be nice to see them update their dining area to make it more inviting, though. Overall, it's good enough for a casual lunch out!

" When you factor in the low prices, Panda Garden is a wonderful buffet option. There are a few drops in quality and freshness, but many of their fried items are crispy and hot. The environment could use a bit of sprucing up, but the value makes it a solid choice for budget diners. " (*Curated Review*)

" I return to Panda Garden Buffet mainly for the friendly staff and the vast selection of food. It’s a no-frills place for sure, but it's worth it for the price. The green beans are addictive, and I always end my meal with some ice cream. While it's not five-star dining, it has its charm. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have had some of my best meal experiences at Panda Garden Buffet! Each visit, I have been surprised by the great taste of the dishes available. I find myself coming back regularly. I would definitely recommend trying their lo mein and shrimp scampi! " (*Curated Review*)

" Went here for my birthday, hoping for a feast of flavors, only to find most of the food options bland and unexciting. The shrimp was the only item that stood out, and even that was inconsistent across visits. I'd recommend checking it out if you're looking for a cheap buffet, but don't set your expectations too high. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently moved to the area, and we're trying out local restaurants. I was drawn in by the lunch specials at Panda Garden. I was pleasantly surprised by how much food they offer for such a low price. The sweet and sour chicken is pretty good, and I love their rice choices. However, some dishes like the sushi felt a bit off. I'll keep coming back and hopefully find more hits than misses. " (*Curated Review*)
