After years of waiting, one of Boerne’s most highly anticipated new dining options is finally set to open its doors at a sprawling Hill Country shopping destination<\/a> that began welcoming its first customers just a few months ago.<\/p>\n

Panda Express<\/a> will celebrate its long-awaited grand opening at the Boerne Town Center<\/a> on Friday, October 2 at 9 a.m. The family-owned company, founded in Glendale, California, opened its first chain in 1983. It is the largest American Chinese dining concept in the United States.<\/p>\n

It’s the small Hill Country town’s first-ever Panda Express location, and is part of several other “firsts” bringing more fast-casual, city-style amenities to Boerne. The San Antonio-area suburb opened earned its first Chicken Salad Chick<\/a> this past June. Plans have also been filed for a Sprouts Farmers Market<\/a>, a KFC<\/a>, and construction work is currently underway on an upcoming Freddy’s Frozen Custard.<\/p>\n

Panda Express is known for its popular dishes like orange chicken, honey walnut shrimp, chow mein, and broccoli and beef.<\/p>\n

“We hope to be a lasting part of the community and welcome all guests into our doors to try our American Chinese favorites and discover their own,” a Panda Express rep, Taelor Wilson, said in a statement shared with MySA.<\/p>\n

The restaurant will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony with Boerne’s Chamber of Commerce at its grand opening on Friday. It also plans to present a $1,000 check to charity. Promotional gifts will be available with purchase.<\/p>\n
