Lucky Panda Buffet

First of all make sure you haul on the door to get in otherwise you might think the place is closed. Even the automatic handicap button doesn't open the door. Inside the place is quite nice ...aside from electrical cords running along the wall to the windows. The rest is a disaster. Seated at a table that had a huge water spill on it. The napkin dispensers are not filled. And in all this amazing decor, the tables have table numbers on them taped down with packaging tape. Now the scary part..the food. The chicken balls were so hard and dry...and the chicken inside was way over cooked. The chicken ball itself was pretty bland and tasteless. I had put generous portions of sweet and sour sauce on them as well. It was questionable if it was sweet and sour sauce...pale, thin, bland and tasteless as well and really did nothing to help the chicken balls. Chicken wings...reasonably OK but nothing stellar. Little steam Buns were acceptable because you don't expect them to be bursting with flavour. Spicy chicken...I definitely would not call them spicy...way too much Chinese 5 spice however...with too much breaded coating...and then...bone chips and splinters mixed through out it. Just gross. The veggies were relatively ok but pretty bland as well, bring your own King of Flavour and spread that around like faerie dust. Dessert...I had this tiny square of a coffee flavored dessert that is pretty safe if you're diabetic. Then I had this mini bundt looking cake. Hard, dry, flavorless. I laughed, I cried, I kissed 31$ goodbye Lol...reading the "owners" response... No I am not exhibiting symptoms of covid. If your handicap door system isn't working, you should probably fix it to be more accommodating to handicap people. I did not pick my table, why would I intentionally pick a dirty table?? And NOBODY made an effort to clean off the spilled liquid the entire time I was there. The cable...like I said, the interior is quite nice but I'd think you would take more pride and do something better then having that cable all over. And if it's for a Valentines day promotion, that's been over for more 2 weeks!! Take it down!! No, after such an unprofessional response...to ask me to come back is pretty laughable. Nope....I would rather eat my exes spaghetti dinner "Temporarily closed". Lol. Hope it stays that way. Vegetarian options: See comment about dietary options. Kid-friendliness: Going to go with no Parking: It's in a large mall parking lot so parking is abundant...especially when clientele is low. Wheelchair accessibility: They have a door that is supposed to be auto opening but it doesn't work. Dietary restrictions: They have vegetable dishes available but no clue if they come into contact with any meat products in preparation.

It's brand new and very nice inside and it sparkles. The staff is very kind and very attentive, with a good knowledge of the food. The Dim Sum has a wonderful refreshing taste. You get a lot on your plate.

I appreciated the layout of the buffet. Paula was especially attentive and pleasant. I loved her service.

I just had lunch here and thought it was delicious. My favourite was the tempura yams and the shumai. I've been there before for lunch and just ordered off the menu for sushi and I found the sushi to be good. It wasn't fishy-smelling or fishy tasting like some of the other places you get sushi from here. I've been here for dinner buffet before as well. I enjoyed it. The sushi was good again and I like that they have dim sum included in the buffet. Overall, the buffet was better or at least equal to other buffets I've been to in the city. The buffet prices are around the same as other buffet prices in the city. The sushi I ordered off the menu was reasonably priced. The restaurant itself is very clean and the staff here are very friendly. I like that they also support other local businesses and I think their $5 blind box meals are a fantastic idea.

Miso sup It’s not saturated enough. It usually tastes salty. The maci rolls were delicious, fresh, and cooked quite quickly. The buffet doesn’t work. Price like in good restaurant …

We went here tonight for the first time on a whim. The first thing I noticed was how open and clean everything looks upon entering. The host was attentive and gave us the choice to sit at our preferred table. I was happy to see such a large selection of food. I myself don’t eat meat but my boyfriend enjoyed a lot of the meat dishes. I thought the vegetables, other protein options and fish were quite good and fresh. Our friends joined us a bit later and weren’t as hungry; so they were able to order off the regular menu and pack their food for takeout. This was no problem at all for the restaurant staff; it was quick and It looked very fresh as well. The woman who tended to our bills was extremely kind, generous and personable. Overall It was a warm welcome to the neighbourhood, and we will be back : thank you!

The interior was very nice but we had to wait a while for a waitress to come see us. After we got up from our table to get our food from the buffet we were in shock. There was very little food selection and the food the was left from the limited selection was pretty much emptied out from the containers. We thought what ever we will just eat sushi but the waitress said they didn’t have any sushi, which brings me to the question- why advertise sushi when you are constantly running out?

I like this place very muchThe food is abundant and the food is served in time.

Our dinner experience at the Lucky Panda was, to say the least, most unlucky! Food was not plentiful and what was there, left a lot to be desired. From the ginger beef that was like gnawing rawhide to tasteless yam tempura, this overpriced buffet made us regret our decision to try this restaurant. Sushi and dessert other than super frosty ice cream were absent. Although clean with friendly staff to greet patrons, this restaurant will not be a venue we recommend to others.

Awesome food the lemon chicken is so good as is the wonton soup top notch staff as well
