Tier Achieved:
For the mildly adventurous. Non-zero chance of the π©s.
Great food, but the kitchen's had some "notes" from the inspector. Worth it? Probably. Pack Imodium just in case.
Golden Panda is a mixed bag of culinary adventures. Some raving about the midweek buffet thatβs not really a buffet, but an all-you-can-eat extravaganza where they actually cook your order fresh. James Richards, a self-proclaimed regular, happily declares it the best Chinese in Tiverton, while Joshua Cullum praises the sizzling beef in black bean as a must-try. However, itβs not all sunshine and soy sauce. William Fitzpatrick was less than thrilled, calling the prices 'crazy expensive' and complaining about the tiny chicken balls swimming in a sea of vinegar-laden sauce. And then thereβs Abi Brown and Benjamin Richmond, who essentially suggest that if you like vinegar, this might be your Shangri-La, but if not, steer clear unless you're in for a challenge.
So, itβs clear you might be having a great time or suffering through a vinegar bath depending on the day and the chefβs whims. Just remember, youβve been warned about the potential for a tangy disaster. ππ’
