About the restaurant

Wolfgang Puck's second restaurant opened in 1983. A unique blend of Chinese and French fusion explodes with flavors unheard of before. Imitated but yet never captured to this day this fusion of flavors keeps you craving and coming back for more. The food is served family style, creating a fun sharing experience that brings people together. The trend setting open kitchen where you can sit and eat while you watch the dance of the chefs working in unison. ***If you are interested in reserving our dining counter please make a request while making a reservation since seating is very limited***

By far this is the best Chinese food in Southern California. We travel many many miles to eat at Panda. Always consistent with the highest quality of ingredients. The flavors are exceptional and the service is the same. Very friendly employees who make the experience personal. The owners of Panda donate hundreds of millions to local hospitals and local charities. These are wonderful people who believe in giving back and supporting the community they serve.

The service and food were excellent! It is definitely a culinary experience that takes Chinese cuisine to the next level. It is great for a special occasion or a business dinner. Be prepared, however, to spend some $$$$. Portions are rather small for the price and the bill adds up quickly. For instance, just 1 single small chicken satay skewer is $16 each and side dishes are $28 each. The Ma Mignon which was not big is $70. But again, worth it for a special occasion... occasionally...

We were in LA for an overnight and chose Fifty One Kitchen because it had great Ratings. We had a car so getting there was easy and there is cheap underground parking in that area. 2 hours was 2 bucks. The food and service were exceptional. Even better than the ratings indicated. We asked for light garlic and it was perfect. Fantastic meal and great service. And it’s a great area to just walk around in in the evening! Highly recommended!!

P.F. Chang's never disappoints - incredible, attentive wait staff and beautiful surroundings, not to mention spectacular food. Whether I have my "usual"- their outstanding Pad Thai - or something simple like the other day - the delicious tempura green beans with a WOW dipping sauce, they never disappoint. I hope to be back very SOON!
