I have been here twice, each was a disappointing experience.
The first time i went, got a orange chicken bowl with fried rice. when i got up to the register my card was not working (my account had been put on hold). I had about 4 dollars in cash but they would not accept it and dumped my food into a trash can. what a freaking waste. Take my 4 dollars and let me eat instead of wasting food!
so i came back.
This time i had to wait about 15 minutes till the chicken was done while the rice bowl just sat there getting cold. They did not tell me that there was a wait for the food and i had to be at work in 15 minutes. I expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that it is lunch time and there is no food ready to be put into my starving mouth. I just wanted to poop on everything in sight. the lazy workers, the people eating inside staring at me and all of the food. i paid 6 bucks for a meal i had to eat in less than 5 minutes that i waited over 15 minutes for.
The food tastes ok. they try to con you into buying a huge expensive soda every time. Its like I'm already paying every penny out of my wallet just to eat 1 item off your menu, you really think im going to spend 3 bucks on a drink? there better be a free blowjob included.
This place is freaking expensive as balls! way way way way WAY WAY WAY over priced. just go across the street to Walgreens and spend about 7-8 bucks on awesome snacks, candy and drinks instead. you'll be glad you did ;)

Panda Express - OK, so it's a fast-food Chinese franchise in the mall.
Some would say 'big deal.'
But it brings a breath of fresh air to a food court that needed something different -- and at the way I see the lines sometimes (I have *never* seen crowd control for a mall restaurant before), the people are hungry for it.
It's basically your standard fare that you can get at other Panda. The only pet-peeve I have is refills. Â It would be nice if they offered a free refill on drinks -- everyone else in the food court does it (but I guess I should count my lucky stars they don't serve the drinks in cans! (LOL) ).
And if you're lucky, sometimes you get a bit of cabaret along with your food (there are times when Mrs. Wu (not her real name -- she's the one that greets you and wants to always give you a free sample - BTW - that slows down the line, Mrs. Wu) has an argument with a line worker! Ah well...what can you do.
