" I usually take my friend to Panda's Den for lunch and introduce them to their incredible food. Each time, we leave amazed. I particularly enjoy their hot and sour soup – it’s the perfect start to any meal – and the crispy Hunan chicken has never disappointed. Recently, I brought a friend who had never tried proper Chinese food outside of takeout, and they were blown away by the flavors. The owner was so warm and kind, sharing a bit of his passion for cooking with us. I can’t stress enough how genuinely good this place is! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you haven't tried Panda's Den, you're missing out! They served me the best hot and sour soup I've ever had, and the flavor combination is spot-on! My main course was the spicy garlic shrimp which lived up to its name. The service staff was attentive without being overwhelming, while the nostalgic decor made for a quaint dining setting. I’ll definitely return — not just for the food but also for the great service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having visited Panda's Den multiple times over the last few years, I can confidently say that it has its ups and downs. The food quality remains mostly high, although some dishes can be hit-or-miss. The fried rice is almost always a safe bet and incredibly filling. I did take issue with the beef in a recent order, as it seemed of a lower grade. However, it is still a reliable place for comfort food, and I hope they continue to keep improving. " (*Curated Review*)

" Meeting new friends this week led me to explore Chinese cuisine again, and I decided that Panda's Den would be our destination. Our visit started off with great service that made us feel comfortable, but the food was hit-or-miss. Although the eggplant with shrimp was deliciously prepared, the general Tso shrimp left much to be desired — it was cold and chewy. I understand that restaurants can have off days. I’m willing to try again; every restaurant deserves another chance! " (*Curated Review*)

" Panda's Den has been a staple in my life since childhood. Despite various locations and trendy spots coming and going, there's something undeniably comforting about their classic dishes. The General Tso's chicken is flawlessly crispy, and their fried rice is aromatic and just right. The owner recognizes us every time we visit, creating an inviting atmosphere that feels like home. Though the decor may not be lavish, the warm service and delicious food more than make up for it. I appreciate their authenticity and commitment to quality. I frequently recommend this local gem to friends and family alike. " (*Curated Review*)

" Panda's Den will always hold a special place in my heart. As a child, I grew up eating there, and the flavors will always remind me of home. The garlic chicken and broccoli are still on point, just as I remember. The service is always decent — staff knows regulars by name, which adds a lovely touch. It’s nice to see a restaurant that remains consistent over the years in terms of food quality and customer service. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to have a comforting meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Panda's Den was a spontaneous decision while exploring Charlotte, and it turned out to be a highlight! The owner greeted us warmly, and I could feel the genuine hospitality. I indulged in their hot and sour soup, which was perfect; not too spicy, and full of flavor. The orange chicken was another favorite – crispy but not greasy. We shared a huge plate of fried rice, and by the end, we were so full we couldn't even finish! Can't wait to come back and try more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)
