Panda Express - Salinas Ca

Food is always ready for pickupWheelchair accessibility: Ground floor double doors access easy wheelchair access

We had door dash give someone else’s order and I am no Santiago person

Food was good. Fried rice was hard in some places like it had been sitting for some time. Everything elese was hot and tasted good. I have noticed recently the portion amount of meat in the side dish has gotten alot smaller. This seems to be more with take-out.

Food is really tasty, BUTTTT the portions seem to get smaller n smaller every time we go. Before, they used to pack ur plate, n now its almost like we 're in school, and they are making sure to stay within the small cubbies on the container. Service is a hit and miss, but one thing I can say is that NEVER EVER have we 've been greeted with a smile or friendliness. it 's always straight faces. The atmosphere is good. it 's in a great location. Parking lot can be somewhat of a hassle, and seating inside can be difficult when busy due to very limited seating.

When my family started eating at this Panda Express location we perferred it to the previous location in Salinas but today I guess was unlucky for us when we ordered our meal from the Davis Road location and we noticed something was different about our meal. My father complained that his teriyaki chicken was chopped into tiny pieces and I had never ever seen this at any Panda Express before. Then when my mother and I were sharing the chicken and chow mein entree we noticed that our chicken had pieces of fat in it which made it difficult to chew and I have ever seen this with Panda Express before so i'm wondering what they might be doing to their chicken? The last thing my family noticed was when we put in our order we requested soy sauce and three fortune cookies but when we got our order we found no soy sauce packets and only two fortune cookies which tells me that this Panda Express location is showing signs of going downhill. My family and I have been Panda Express fans and this was the second time we ordered from this location and I hope they improve this location in the future to better serve customers
