It's a winning combination for any restaurant: attentive service and good food. Fortunately, Panda Garden Restaurant does well with both of these expectations. This eatery is a favorite spot with Portland's lunch time crowd in light of its quick preparation and generous portions. However, Panda Garden is great for quality evening dining, as well. In addition to the standard Chinese cuisine offerings, this restaurant also stands out for its diet and heart healthy offerings. In particular, dishes such as Steamed Scallop with Vegetables are steamed to perfection with a light sauce served on the side. Also worth sampling is Moo Shu Vegetable with egg, tree mushrooms, cabbage, bamboo shoots and plum sauce (also served on the side); Hunan Chicken featuring chicken, mushrooms, snow peas, broccoli, baby corn, red pepper and water chestnuts in a delightfully zesty black bean sauce. As mentioned, the wait staff is friendly, efficient, and always ready with menu recommendations.
