JB Panda Chinese Food - Orangeville

Being in Orangeville, the choices of oriental food is quite limited, we've tried them all, and this is the closest thing to authentic Chinese food we can find that doesn't cost a ton. We're always happy with the food quality, once you get past the ordering process. The staff are somewhat hard to communicate with, but the food is always worth it. We always get the fried rice dishes, and are pleased with anything else we've tried as well.

We had lunch take-out from JB Panda recently. It was our first taste of JBP. It was two of us.We ordered 2 dishes from the lunch specials - lemon chicken and kung-po shrimp. Each came with chicken fried rice and an egg roll.It wasn't bad. And it wasn't particularly good either.Let me start with the positive. The portion size was decent. We didn't finish all in one go, even though we started out hungry. And that wasn't because of the food. There was nothing that we wouldn't have eaten if we had room for it. Also the rice was quite nice. Nothing out of the ordinary for a standard Chinese take-out, but good enough that I went back and finished it off later in the day.However ...The shrimp dish was supposed to be spicy and wasn't. More importantly there were only four small shrimp in the whole dish. Even for a lunch special that seems pretty meager. The lemon chicken batter was quite chewy and doughy, although it was reasonably crispy on the outside. The chicken itself inside felt dry and a little overcooked, and just generally not all that fresh. It was okay, but I can make much better myself with not much effort.The egg rolls similarly were somewhat crispy and slightly chewy at the same time. They tasted okay, but again average at best.On other sites I've seen other reviews where people didn't feel well afterwards, and I must say we had no concerns in that department. The food settled well enough with our tummies.So all in all it was OK'ish, and the price for 2 lunch specials wasn't too bad ($

We recently moved to Orangeville and tried JP's and loved it. Been back now a few times. Food is fresh and tastes great! Not greesy like many others either.

Fresh food, clean looking kitchen and does not taste like trashy Chinese food! Their menu says they don't use any MSG in their dishes.

He tried this place many years back, it was terrible at the time. I thought I'd give them another try, now worse. Eat seemed decent, but was useless. leathery old chicken, could not chew her sesam huhn, tasteless rice with freeze-dried dry heapses, worse than any food...dressing food in a bad shopping center. total rubbish, still shocked in business. they said they couldn't have done anything.
