Burger King?

Have you given the Kung Pao chicken a go yet? It's spicy and delicious, and actually (according to Men's Health) one of the healthiest Chinese dishes available on the menu.

I still prefer the orange chicken, though I wish I could order it with a bit more kick, it's the tastiest orange chicken I've had from any number of restaurants.

Yeah I was walking back there and said wow theirs a Panda Express. So Both times I went there this year that is where I ate.

I'm pretty sure I paid more than $6.99 for my food and a drink. like $12 or something.

BK is not bottom of the barrel. MC Donald's is, IMO, the worst. [Yes the name is right. Well it should be. Its time to get hip.]

When i'm at the park, I prefer Famous Dave's.

^ That's because you bought a drink. $7 + $3 something for drink + tax adds up real fast.

I do enjoy Panda Express at the park. I'd enjoy it more if they added sweet n sour chicken, but orange chicken and kung pao chicken do nicely.

How bout that Mandarin Chicken, that pairs up real nicely with Orange Chicken and Fried Rice. Wow this is really starting to sound like the Food Network haha.

Yum... Baconator.....

Those things are tasty. I've only had like 3 of them though because they're like 830 calories with almost 2000mg of sodium and 170mg of Cholesterol (YIKES)

yummy heart attack in a foil wrapper

^You only live once =]
and besides, they have medication for EVERYTHING now.

I don't know if anyone has ever eaten here but I think a Logan's Roadhouse would fit well in Frontiertown. The theming is there and the food (especially the rolls) are wonderful.

We have a Logan's here in Louisville, and its always really good and a fair priced.

Texas Roadhouse would be good too. That place is beast.

You people talking about Chinneese food: I would be afraid to even try that type of food at the park. I do love Chinneese but I would be afraid of a gut bomb and that makes you feel sick and thats not good.

Actually what CP needs in the back of the park is an airconditioned, full service restaurant instead of Chickfilet. Maybe resurrecting the old Silver Dollar would be great. It fits the theme. The only places to have a sit down lunch in the back is Chuck Wagon, Last Chance, or Chick. Chuck Wagon is a cafeteria style, can't seat many people, and while the pizza is good why CP needed another pizza location is beyond me. Last Chance is a saloon attached the Palace Theater and I won't bring my kids there (too much beer). Chick is basically fast food with an enclosed seating area. The chicken is good, but that's all they have. And they are closed on Sundays!!

Take a look at the map. If you divide the park in half at the Iron Dragon, most of the lunch places are in the front, but around lunch time the crowd is pretty evenly spread throughout the park so the food places should be too. I work Town Hall in the back and you wouldn't believe the number of people coming in looking for a full service place to eat without having to go up front.

Exactly what I get everytime I go to a Panda Express. Nothing like catching the show in the Red Garter on your split with a nice plate of Panda food in front of you. :)

Must be an employee favorite?! :)

Considering how often the question of a discount was brought up in BTL, I'd say that's a pretty firm yes.

In terms of value for your money, Panda is probably the best deal in the park. You get a plate piled high that will fill you up, and tastes really good (the Orange Chicken...oh man). You pay just as much for a chicken sandwich and some fries at the back of the park, or a burger basket that isn't near as much food.

But, once you go to the mall and get it for $4 less, you realize that while, it might be the best deal in the park, it's definitely not that good of a deal. ;)

On the previous page, e x i t spoke of the difference in pricing being closer to $1.50. That was compared to his mall Panda though. I am sure some malls are more/less expensive then others. I still think its a hell of deal and get it at least once a week.

I paid $5.70 for a 2-entree plate at SouthPark Mall in Strongsville on Sunday (before tax). The same 2-entree plate is $8.99 at Cedar Point, before tax. So, a difference of $3.29.

But agreed, I still frequent there often. The price certainly isn't keeping me away. :)

Gotcha. Well I knew the price would differ from mall to mall but that is a big jump from what a combo costs at the Panda I visit in Columbus.

I think there is a general 30% price hike on point.
If you compare any restaurants on point to off-point, you will notice around a 30% flat "tax" on the food.

See, that concerns me that anyone thinks that Chick-Fil-A is good, or even a good value.
