" Had a disappointing time at Panda Gourmet. The food arrived cold and was bland at best. I can't say I'll return again, however, I've heard the hot pot is quite popular, but our experience wasn't worth recommending. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is one of my favorite places to grab authentic Szechuan food. The mala water-boiled fish was phenomenal and the earthy tones of the dish lingered wonderfully. The atmosphere was laid-back but the surrounding area felt a little sketchy, making me hesitant to visit late at night. Still, I'd highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely horrendous experience. We arrived and the hostess seemed overwhelmed. Our table was sticky, and it took ages to order. When the food finally came, it was cold and overly oily. I strongly urge you to avoid this place if you’re looking for good service and quality food. I won’t be coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Panda Gourmet truly is an authentic Chinese dining experience. I ordered dishes that highlighted true Szechuan flavors, such as cumin beef and spicy wontons, both outstanding! The only downside was the wait time. If you have patience, the food is definitely worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Panda Gourmet serves genuine Chinese food, and the flavors are remarkable, but if you’re looking for a refined dining experience, this isn’t it. The service was hit-or-miss, yet the food compensates. Will return for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here based on a friend's suggestion. The spicy lamb skewers were quite delightful, though the ambiance felt a bit lacking. If highlighted dishes could be complemented with a better setting, it would elevate the experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" A real delight! The Szechuan peppercorn chicken was crispy and bursting with flavor. While the prices may seem a bit high, the portion sizes are large enough to share. The atmosphere is casual and suitable for a chill dinner with friends. I will be back to try more dishes from their diverse menu! " (*Curated Review*)
