Panda Kitchen

Worth to come back again. One of the most popular places to enjoy Cantonese Clay pot rice dish！

Food and service is always good. Small restaurant making seating rather cramped.

Dope as Claypot rice for $16. Was feeling well ready to take a nap afterwards. Could use a little more flavouring but otherwise value for money to be had. Will return when the cravings come back

Decided to try Panda Kitchen after a recommendation. Went there around 7.30pm, so it was not that busy. Ordered and the food came out quickly. The claypot rice is pretty good and the Cantonese style fried vermicelli was tasty too. The fried rice noodle with beef (& soy sauce) was a little bland. The Congee was ok, maybe too much pepper. Overall not bad and I would still come back for the claypot rice

Not a bad place if you don't want to cook that night. The food quality is pretty stable and with friendly staffs too. My favourite pot rice place.

The most authentic Cantonese dishes are found here! Very tasty rice and noodle dishes with genuine ingredients and unbelievable price! Please be patient as the place is small and always full house especially in the weekend! Very nice Cantonese rice dumplings!

Small restaurant so it pays to get there early.I order my usual-salted fish pork eggplant ,pork ribs,clay pot rice ,stir fried beef rice noodles and the egg corn soup.

They serve pretty decent clay pot rice. The cured meat is pretty tasty and the crispy rice at the bottom is the best part. It might take a while to prepare though since I think they cook it in the clay pot from scratch. The Roast Duck is pretty decent as well.

First time trying here. I love claypot rice so definitely tried it here. We had the claypot chicken and mushroom, claypot salted fish with pork and also salted fish with eggplant on rice. My favourite was the claypot chicken and mushroom, the rice was nicely separated but good texture. The mushroom and chicken adds good flavour to the rice and also tasted good themselves. The claypot pork was not as good, the pork texture I feel was the wrong type of pork, probably would be better using pork belly, as well as the salted fish was too bony but I quite like the saltiness. The eggplant salted fish was not bad also, but I feel lacking sauce and for this dish the salted fish was not salty enough, therefore I am not sure if there are multiple batches of salted fish in this restaurant. Anyway I still quite enjoy my meal here and price is ok.

This was one of the few places in Auckland that does claypot rice so we came by to try it. They were quite busy but we were able to get a table without waiting too long. Their menu is decently sized with one side containing and rice and noodles dishes and the other the meal dishes for sharing.With the claypot rice they had quite a few options. I have tried the chicken and mushroom one as well as the persevered meat one. Both were really tasty and had a nice amount of topping and rice. The rice had a nice texture and it did crisp up in the claypot so there were the crunch pieces to enjoy with it.We also some of their other items and I really liked the raw fried sticky rice as well as their egg tofu. The prices were fairly cheap considering the amount of food that we got. It is a great place for lunch or dinner and has become one of my new favorite places for tasty Chinese food.
