"After quietly closing in 2023 to refresh its interior and menu for the first time in 20 years, Pasadena’s legendary Panda Inn is finally gearing up to reopen on November 14, 2024. The restaurant features a sushi bar, a renovated outdoor patio, and a private dining area. The menu highlights chef specials like shrimp and lobster wontons, Panda Beef in an orange peel sauce, and larger courses like kung pao shrimp and orange chicken. It includes updated seafood, sushi, and raw bar dishes, and desserts." - Rebecca Roland
