Panda Express will soon build up a San Marcos location, according to recent public records.
Located at the intersection of I-35 & Aquarena Springs Dr, the $2,000,000 construction will consist of a “New 2,693 SF Ground Up Fast-Food Restaurant” and is estimated to wrap up by September 2025.
A brand that requires little introduction, Panda Express has built its reputation from its various classic offerings such as orange chicken, kung pao chicken, and broccoli beef, among many others. The brand is not just a favorite fast casual brand for take-away, but for catering large events as well.
Perhaps what is most notable about the brand, given its massive footprint, is that it remains family-owned by its original founders Andrew and Peggy Cherng, who started the company in 1983 in Glendale, California. As of 2023, the brand boasts over 2,230 stores worldwide.
