"I always gauge Chinese restaurants by their Hot Mustard, and Little Panda makes their own, which is impressively spicy—definitely “snot-melting” hot! I also enjoy their chicken wings and particularly their Pepper Shrimp when it's available on the dinner buffet. It's worth noting that shrimp isn’t served on the lunch buffet, but the lunch option is cheaper. The dinner buffet costs less than $9.00, with drinks being extra. As the only Chinese/Asian restaurant in Cherokee, they really have my attention! If you want Chinese food in this area, you'll have to drive 30 miles to find another option. So if you’re in Cherokee and craving Chinese cuisine, Little Panda is hands down the best choice!"

The food is quite good, but the experience feels more geared towards takeout. The staff doesn’t seem particularly welcoming. For my dinner, I spent around $10–20. I would rate the food a solid 4 out of 5, but the service gets a 2, and the atmosphere is lacking at just 1.

For a small mid-western town, this is a Gem. The food is very colorful, flavorful, and priced very reasonably. The service is very good and you won't wait long to get your food. Family friendly and affordable for an entire family experience!! If in town, this is a worth while experience...

The staff complements the food in a way that’s hard to describe but I’ll give it a shot. They really treat you like family. They are humble and genuinely aim to provide an experience that keeps you coming back for more. Lastly, Little Panda has become legendary among our college crew. Everyone who visited has fond memories to share about this hidden gem in a small town. Do yourself a favor and stop in for a meal; I promise you won't regret it. View menu

The food at Cherries is excellent—definitely one of the best options in the city. The customer service is fantastic as well. Currently, you can only pick up your orders, as dining inside the restaurant is not available. Masks are required for food pickup, and the staff follows safety protocols properly. The owners take the time to greet their customers, ensuring everyone feels welcome, especially during this ongoing pandemic. They are also active members of the community. I highly recommend this place!

Small town Chinese food that is served in a clean restaurant, albeit in an off-the main road restaurant. They cook up small portions for the buffet, so the food is always fresh and not sitting around for a long time on the steam table. The meals are good, even though there is only a choice of about six entrees. There are also chicken wings, wantons, rangoon, orange slices, lettuce salad with a balsamic dressing. Fried rice is the norm, but you can ask for white rice. There is also a menu from which you can order dine in or take out. Friendly, quick service. Prices are very reasonable. It is a popular place.
