What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Panda House is widely praised for its delicious Chinese cuisine, with many highlighting signature dishes like Kung Pao chicken and generous portion sizes that often last for two meals. The lunch buffet is also a popular choice for sampling a variety of flavors. While most reviews commend the friendly service and welcoming atmosphere, a few customers have unfortunately encountered unwelcoming staff interactions.
"Awesome service, they are so nice here. The food is really good and the place is really clean. I’ll be coming back often.
The tea is really good too!"

"All our food was delicious! We did 3 lunch specials shrimp lo mein (would order extra shrimp next time only had a couple in it), general tso chicken, and moo Goo Gai pan, never ordered that before and wanted to try something new it was delicious! Asian vegetables lots of mushrooms sauteed chicken in a white sauce. Hot and sour soup was really good. And the krab rangoons are probably the best we have had in awhile! 😁Thanks panda house! We devoured half the food so the pics are half way through eating!"
Krystal Madsen
"Finally made it to the Panda House (we are winter residents) after they reopened, only to be greeted by the rudest woman (waitress) we’ve come across in a while. After about a 3 minute word exchange, we left. By the way, we were the ONLY people in the restaurant at the time. Won’t be going back, far too unwelcoming. It’s the Keys, be nice!"
