Panda Korea Restaurant

The middle aged man with the glasses that serves the food has to be the #1 most rude person I've ever encountered at a restaurant. He is so rude that's it's almost unbelievable. Will not speak to you, slams your food down on the table, grabbed my drink by the rim with his bare hands and moved it out of the way before I could grab it. He was also very rude to my mom and my partner. I asked him why does he feel the need to be so rude to people? As per usual, no response and just walks off. If you don't like us over here then might I suggest you catch a flight back home, but of course he wouldn't do that. He gets to drive his nice suburban over here and pretend like he is better than everyone. Hilarious and pathetic at the same time. Don't get me wrong I absolutely loved this place and the elderly lady is so sweet. But he has absolutely ruined it for me and my family. At least at KTop you are treated like a human! I'll be taking my business there from now on it seems.

We found this cute little mom-and-pop Korean restaurant on our way to visit friends (a good two hours from home and totally opposite of our usual spots), and I’m so glad we did. I was craving bibimbap, and this place absolutely delivered. Everything tasted so homey and authentic—like a comforting, homemade meal. The bulgogi was especially amazing—perfectly seasoned, tender, and full of flavor. You can really tell it’s run with care and pride. Such a hidden gem, and definitely worth going out of your way for!

My favorite restaurant! My husband showed me this this place and now I come here at least once a week. This restaurant is the real deal. Everything is fresh, it's family owned and has a peaceful environment.

Panda Korea is awesome! We visited while out of town picking up family at the airport and decided to try this place out! We walked in and it was very quiet and only one other patron. The place is definitely older but everything was clean and comfortable. We were sat right away and asked for our drink orders. Drinks came back to us within a minute or two and then our waiter (probably the owner as well) took our app orders. We ordered the Kimbap and and a Kimchi pancake. A few minutes passed and the sweet older lady brought out our Kimbap and WOW was it amazing! Warm, fresh, and oh so delicious. The best I have ever had! Then we got the kimchi pancake and again wow! Hot, crispy and so, so tasty! And lastly we ordered the Bulgogi Jeon Gol Hot Pot! It arrived to the table bubbling and steaming and smelling so yummy! We started to dig in and there was sooo much meat and veggies and the glass noodles were just perfect! We ate until we could not eat anymore. I wish we lived closer because we'd go back over and over again especially with the cheap prices but we will definitely try to return when back in Longview! GO EAT HERE!
