Panda Express

Placed on Santa Rosa Avenue, this Panda Express location is right in the middle of one of the most popular shopping centers in town.
It’s by Costco, Ulta Beauty, Target and plenty of other affordable restaurants.
They have a very nice outdoor seating area.
It’s not designated just to Panda Express, but if it’s a nice day and tables aren’t taken it’s always an option. As we know Panda Express is an Americanized Asian fast food restaurant.
The Asian aspect of their taste inspires from cities like Hong Kong, Beijing, and even Sichuan.
They also do use woks that are 8 pounds to keep the authenticity.
They’ve upped their care for health as they now have no food with high-fructose corn syrup and by 2025 they plan to cut even more sodium, sugars, and artificial colors and flavors. Their website is beautifully organized.
On there they have a chart for those who have specific allergies.
They even have a page with 30-minute recipe recommendations using their food! They only have their firecracker shrimp for limited times, but it is so tasty! This specific Panda Express has fresh food unlike other ones I’ve been too.
They do vegetarian options like vegetables, chow mein, fried and white rice.
Even veggie spring rolls. Panda Express is kid friendly not just because they have a kids menu to fit their size, but they even have a program where they donate money to undeserved youth. The workers here are youthful and efficient.
I want to comment specifically on a worker named Jerrod.
His customer service was exceptional and he definitely knows how to make sure that his customers are happy! Management, I hope you make him employee of the month! Since it’s such a busy plaza there’s parking everywhere including wheelchair accessible parking.
Just be careful driving around since it can get pretty tight. Overall to the beautiful people of Sonoma county and visitors abroad, I can tell you this is my favorite Panda Express in Santa Rosa!

Be very careful when eating orange chicken , Or any meat meat for that matter , We recently got food from this location , And they happen to be a lot of bones In the chicken , Big and small .
Kinda hard to tell too, since it’s been deep-fried and then sauced .
Just be mindful when ordering here .

The absolute best food I have had at a panda express so fresh I had not had so fresh Beijing beef it was so tender… I love Beijing beef dry and crispy but this was tender and yummy! Recommend this Panda Express to anyone close by.
