Pan Asian Express - Mandalay Bay

We ate at the Mandalay Bay food court this afternoon. We ordered food from different places. A bit pricey, but the portions were good and the taste wasn't bad. Perhaps the common area with the tables could be improved. The place looks a bit run down and has an oppressive atmosphere. Next time, we might try the restaurants in the casino area. That area looks a lot of better inside the casino.

This business is very dishonest because the recipes they serve do not taste anything like the name they carry. I ordered KungPao chicken and Broccoli beef. It is as bland as it can get. I have had kungpao chicken many times and this is the worst variant of it. I doubt they have used diluted sriracha sauce in this. Terrible. The dish costs 27 USD making it feel like daylight robbery. Not sure why they ask for tips (15% by default) while making absolutely zero effort in making the food taste better.

Food was enticing but subpar compared to bigger named chains. Made our stomachs hurt a little bit the next day portion size was a medium effort.

I have attempted to eat here twice in the past 2 days. First time was at 07:45 and everything was shut down, the lights were off, and there was only 1 worker lingering in the back. Second time was today, at 7 PM. Food clearly in front of us and the first two workers ignored us and the third worker tells us they are closed. When I asked what the hours are because online says they are open, they said they were “slow” so they were closing early. There was clearly food available in front of us and they still stated they were closed. Horrible.

Busy food court restaurant that will prepare fresh menu items for you while you wait if it’s not in the case. Kung pao chicken was a little too saucy for me, mixed veggies were prepped fresh and pork dumplings were good. Gave me complimentary Rangoon crab but I couldn’t eat them because they’re made with cream cheese (cant eat dairy) Portion was substantial for me, paid $25.

Food was honestly really good. A little pricey like airport pricing but expected and still worth it. Great choices and freshly cooked food!

Literally got the veggie fried rice and vegetables because I do not eat meat. It’s against my religion. And as I was eating it, I found bits and pieces of chicken in my rice . Also, the prices were outrageous. It was $18 for veggies and rice.

Tasty food, but the portion size is small for the price.

The food was like yummy mall quality food but not worth the visit unless you having starving kids and a starving family. This food court it tucked away really far into the hotel and hard to find. The prices are beyond outrageous to a point where you cannot afford a "cheap" dinner. The orange chicken, rice, and noodles had good flavor. They were so greasy that the grease soaked through the containers and made a pool of grease onto the table. This chicken was not crispy enough. But the flavors were find. I enjoyed the noodles. The portions were not bad, but should have given double for the price. Would only be back if my child wanted orange chicken and we were too tired to walk down the street to Panda like on this night.

Don't go here it's better to starve, to many other places to go other than here. High price small servings and dry and over cooked food. Thank goodness the steamed rice was edible

So bad ;-; rice tasted like instant rice but not an Asian brand Do not go here unless desperate and with no standards for food

I wanted to get something quick since we had just finished the sharks aquarium at the hotel. The food was terrible and they charged me for food I didn't order or got. Since they never gave me a receipt (probably on purpose) I got my cc charge text while we were eating and when I saw it $77.45 for 2 plates and two bottles of water I went to ask. No receipt can't help you and brushed off. Mandalay hotel should removed them. Don't waste your time and avoid them, there is a reason it was the only restaurant without line. I didn't have time next time I will make time lol

By far one the worst meals I had in my entire life. How is the casino allowing this place to be in business at the food court? I was hungry and was short on time so came here but it might have been a better idea if I just didn't eat and get something better later. Food was so salty and lacking flavor. I got the fresh batch of orange chicken and it tasted old... not good at all. One entree and one side was $14. Highly suggest going to Johnny Rockets or even Subway.

Hell to the no! For the amount we paid, the girl loading up entrees literally chose every single SMALL chicken morsel she could find to put on the plate. Are you kidding me!? What a joke. Then they have the gall to ask for a tip. Zero tips given. Do not come here.

Ordered fried rice and beef broccoli for lunch, hmm Fried rice i think the rice is not cooked yet. To think it was a fried rice. The beef broccoli looked so sad, actually all the 5 food displayed looked so sad. And 1 entree is $14 is not worth it.

I typically do not give one star reviews. However Pan Asian deserves it. It was a very disappointing lunch stop at Mandalay Bay. We were roaming around Mandalay Bay on Christmas and Ian suddenly uttered the dreadful words "I am hungry". Most of the restaurants at Mandalay Bay hadn't opened yet so we proceeded to their food court before he turned cranky. We got Ian a pizza and the Mrs settled on grabbing her lunch at this place. After placing her order (Broccoli Beef with rice) and paying close to $11, she received the smallest portion of a lunch plate ever at any restaurant. The quantity of food is probably less than half a panda express lunch. You would have to order two portions at $22 to appease your hunger. The food itself was doused in soy sauce with minimal quantities of beef and broccoli (see for yourself in the picture). Offerings in their menu are very limited as well. I do not recommend to rely on this restaurant for your dining needs.

Don't eat here! 0 stars. If you own this place read this review. 10/31/19. Watch your cameras. Pan Asian Express opens at 11. Every other place in this food court is open and serving. 11:05 absolutely nothing ready. Was told 15 minutes. Wow. Plus the workers had already been there. It's not like they were late to arrive. 11:30 not even half the food is ready. WOW WOW It wasn't like they had no employees. Change your time to 12. Why open and not serve food after everybody else has already been open since a little before 11? You have workers there. Amazing the lack of just doing the basics of serving food.

Not cheap, not great, but not the worst I have ever had. Went through here for a business lunch to pick something up fairly quick to eat, the staff was doing what they could to put numbers through the line. When I ate the food, it was fresh and decently done, it's not a classy experience or flavorful experience. The food was decent but nothing that was overly well done either. It isn't an absolute know what it is until you must down please either.

Just bad. Overcooked mushy broccoli beef. Soggy chow main. I didn't look at Yelp before ordering. My bad. Expensive too. Thumbs way down.

Pray that you get to eat here when it's an all male crew. If it's the females, be aware that their service sucks!

If I could give fewer stars, I would. I realize the prices are ALL high at the convention center/casinos, but it was a bigger insult with what we got. The one item "plate" was actually a bowl with barely a scoop of fried rice and very little for the "entre". They actually served 4 pieces of orange chicken with a small scoop of fried rice for $14. The drinks were $5 for the equivalent of a medium drink. The value issue is only the beginning of my concerns. The food was cold, greasy, and flavorless. The staff was very rude, did not explain where they wanted us to order drinks vs pay. They gave us the wrong drinks. Cashier was not helpful, when we asked questions, she just pointed to another staff member. When I returned the wrong drinks, the staff asked me to throw the old drinks away even though I clearly could not carry 4 drinks in my 2 hands. I'm sure they will not fix the problems because people are stuck here with little options. The line was long and they are obviously making money off horrible food and service. If this review prevents one person from giving them business, it is worth it.

Places like this make me sick. They stay in business only because of their proximity to the convention center and they had the shortest line of all of the places in the food court. No wonder. They were out of steamed rice during the lunch rush. Hahaha. Crappy food. Cold, soggy and tasteless. Do not eat here.

Price is about the same as the other places in the convention center/aquarium, not docking stars because of the high price. The food itself was very mediocre. The chow mein was so bland, it just tasted like soggy noodles and the orange chicken was a new batch they brought out, but it wasn't at all crispy. If I had to go again I would just get the rice instead of the chow mein because that would be more flavorful and less oily. Also might get something else than the orange chicken because orange chicken tastes much better fresh compared to like beef and broccoli.

Wasn't too hungry to go to a buffet with friends so I joined one friend to the food court - I wish I spent $25 at the buffet other friends went to or just opted for the $7 Subway sandwich my other friend got at the food court with me. Instead I wasted $19 on a bowl of Orange Chicken and one Blue Moon from here. No where close to Panda Express's food - the veggies looked good as well that I had along with my white rice and orange chicken, but they were not tasty. Chicken was kind of soggy and not very flavorful as well. I didn't even finish my small, over priced bowl. Do not recommend!

The orange chicken and Lo Mein were delicious. Enjoyed it more than anything I had at the Wicked Spoon.

OMG, so horrible you cant believe, I took my mom and my sisters, never seen anything like this in my entire life, horrible food, soggy noodles, half raw beef and old yellow broccoli, staled, ZERO taste and .... I threw away entire food and showed it to the manager. This needs to be addressed by the management of Flamingo Hotel in Vegas since it truly tarnishes the reputation of this Hotel / Casino.

I should have looked at yelp before I went here. I was just so hungry for Asian food. Well. This was a huge mistake! The food is not good, barely Asian and, well, just not good.

I've only had their breakfast, but it is so good!!! They have an omelet station. I get whole eggs with jalapeños, tomatoes, bacon and feta cheese. Yum! If you like spicy things you must try their omelets with their special red hot sauce, it is to die for! Enjoy :)

Total waste of money don't recommend to anybody. Panda Express way better than this generic version. Small potions soggy ginger chicken noodles tasted boiled nothing is flavorful wished I check d the reviews here this business should be closed asap.

It should def be closed. But unfortunately, for those attending a convention, this joke of an establishment is still open. I am sad I just wasted $12 on a poorly copied version of Panda Express. I get it, the costs will all be expensive here in Vegas but the portions are just sad. And the meat is dry, the veggies taste depressed and who can't properly cook rice?? The rice was mushy, too much water or hadn't been cooked long enough. The people working could def afford a smile but probably not when they hate their job. Stingy portions. Overpriced. I hate their font choices. Only thing you should get here is beer.

Would like to give them 0/10 rating. Food taste bad, small quantity & 2item combo for $16? Not worth it

It isn't 1 star it is 0 star. It is awful. Unbelievable, they asked me about tips. No tips ever for them. This business must vanish at all. Never, never go there. Very disappointed.

This place has the best food I have had in a food court. It is also better than Panda Express. It has nice workers also great food. This is at the Mandalay Bay food court near the Convention center which is at the end of the hotel. If you stay at the hotel you walk all the way past border grill and then walk farther than you will find it in the middle of the food court. I have been here many times I always ask for beef and broccoli or broccoli and beef. I do not like the sides so I ask for two servings of broccoli and beef. If you don't want to have asian food I would not go here but I love it. Also you get a paper on the trays for every restaurant except Subway. You will find coupons for the restaurants including Pan Asian express. Also look for the coupons in the pictures I will post. But there is none for subway. I hope you try out Pan Asian express. Also if you stay at a MGM resort you can change it to your room.

Don't eat here. Horrible staff and stale food. The server made sure some meat falls off the serving spoon before scooping it to my plate. Stingy portions. Also, their placemat tray has a 50% off coupon that they will not honor. The cashier says to bring it next time. They didn't give me a receipt either. Shady staff.

Not to be confused with Panda Express!! I definitely made that mistake. The fried rice doesn't have very much flavor. The noodles have a nice flavor, just make sure they are fresh!

Chicken tastes like it was made of cardboard, don't waste our money! If you like aftertaste of freezerburn, order here. The whole plate was awful. Mandala bay should be ashamed to be selling this garbage.

The fried rice I thought was pretty good. The orange chicken could be more seasoned it was a little bland kind of like microwave orange chicken. But it was alright.

So sad it wasn't better. I at least hoped it would be adequate to Panda Express... not even close. Don't waste your $15 on a plate here.

I made the mistake of not checking yelp before I ate here. I don't know what this is, but it's not good. I will not be eating here again. Even their soda wasn't good. Disappointed.

Disappointed. Came late around 7:30pm and they didn't have anything. Only 5 entree to choose from. Food has been there for awhile.. Don't recommend it

This place sucks. Avoid at all costs. Crispy shrimp was soggy and chow mein had no taste at all. Would not recommend. Adding soy sauce did not help.

I don't like leaving bad reviews, but I just hope the owners take it as constructive criticism. My orange chicken was okay. About half of my chow mien was dry, and almost crunchy like. It was not worth the $13 I payed. And I ordered food around 6pm, so I would have expected it to be more fresh. I was excited expecting good quality at least like Panda Express considering that it's in the Manalay bay but no...

I wished I had read the other reviews before I dined here. Bad food, horribly overpriced. Panda Express is 10 times better at half the price.

In town for a tournament April 7th, food was typical mall food court quality, portions pretty small for the price. One female employee in particular was very rude and condescending. For a quick bite, walk a bit further down to BBQ Mexicana. It's worth the higher price-tasty and healthy bowls (Coop) and very nice employees (even with a crowd).

This place is so overpriced just for a tiny portion of food. I'm a huge fan of orange chicken, chow mein & fried rice but they all tasted gross here. It's ironic because Panda Express (a much better chinese cuisine) is right across the street. I would've rather suffered the hot boiling Las Vegas heat & get more for my money than eat this trash ever again. The chicken was too soft and sweet. The fried rice was dry & cold. Horrible.

Maybe I was super hungry but man was my meal great. Some of the best beef & broccoli I've had in a long time. Mark W.

Don't do it!! In a moment of weakness during Interbike I chose this ridiculous place for a quick lunch. The most disgusting food ever. The ginger chicken lacks flavor as well the chow mien and fried rice.

they do not have a system they over charged me $26 they do not have a voicemail nor someone to talk to, if you want to solve the issue. 11dls per person and for poor customer service. Do not buy here! I did went twice to see someone that could help me out. No one had knowledge of anything! the manager is a ghost.

I LOVE Rice but this rice was nasty gross. And was deffinetly NOT worth my $15. I had to force myself to eat it after spending that much on a very small portion. I didn't even get $15 worth of food. Don't waste your money!

Disgusting food, tiny portions and rediculous prices. $30 for 2 horrible meals, are you kidding. Go find a panda do not waste your money here
