"This was my first visit to this brand new Panda Express in Danville, Virginia. It's in front of where K-Mart used to be and has easy access from the outside from the front, sides and rear. It was so easy to get in and out! Very easy ordering process, helpful staff, and good food. Though, when I came in, almost every table was dirty and there were 7-8 staff in there, so that was a little bit of a dissonance for an otherwise excellent visit."

"I ordered the two entree and one side plate. The sesame chicken was waiting to cook but the young lady had put everything else on the plate. They brought me everything when the sesame chicken was finished, which was super nice of them. Unfortunately, my noodles and beef were cold from the wait but my sesame chicken was good. I would suggest, if there is an item to wait for, not to put anything on the plate until everything is ready. That may help keep everything warm. The employees were very friendly. They also let me know which items had peanuts so I could avoid those. I would definitely eat there again."

"I tried panda express for the first time and it was really good and fresh. The food came fresh and it didn't take long and the Lady at the drive through yesterday was really nice and I had a 20% coupon and she showed me how to use the app and it was a good experience. I just wish they had one closer to were I live because honestly it's better and cheaper that fast food and more healthy."
