As I stated in my previous review for those who are doubting my 5-star rating, this is NOT Panda Express!!! ;)

Service: Excellent. Thank you, Panda!

Pork Chow Fun: It could use a little more flavor, but the blandness was actually a nice complement to the other flavorful dishes.

Honey Braised Shrimp with Walnuts: Heavenly. Simply heavenly. I love that it wasn't sickly sweet like some other honey walnut prawns I've had. Extra bonus points for being generous with the walnuts!

Orange Chicken: Yummy and onolicious...the best orange chicken EVER!

Mongolian Beef: Wonderfully tender and full of flavor.

I'm looking forward to having some delicious leftovers for lunch tomorrow...the only thing we finished was the shrimp! ;)

Panda tops my list as the best Chinese food in Pleasanton! Their orange chicken was by far the BEST I've ever had...so crispy and light with the perfect orange sauce and tidbits of pineapple! Ono-licious!!!

The mongolian beef was also the best I've had and the meat was so ultra-tender throughout, unlike what I've experienced at other Chinese restaurants. The combination chow fun was good, average good, and a nice accompaniment to our flavorful main dishes.

Nice downtown location, easy parking, great service and yummylicious food...plus leftovers...they SO deserve 5 stars!

NOTE: This is NOT Panda Express!!! In case you had your doubts about my 5-star rating. ;D
