Highest Protein Items at Panda Express

If you're tracking macros, Panda Express has several high-protein options. Grilled chicken entrees, Broccoli Beef (15g protein at just 150 calories), Chow Mein (15g protein), and Super Greens (9g protein) are among the best protein sources on the menu. The full nutrition breakdown for each item — including exact protein grams — is visible in the item cards above. For a ranked list of every entree by protein content with calorie-per-gram ratios, read our Panda Express protein guide.

Panda Express Sodium Content: What to Watch

Sodium is one of the most important nutrition facts to monitor at Panda Express. Chinese-American cuisine relies heavily on soy sauce and savory seasonings, and sodium content can be very high. Chow Mein (1,000mg sodium) and Fried Rice (1,000mg sodium) each represent nearly half of the daily recommended sodium limit for adults (2,300mg). Super Greens (370mg) and White Steamed Rice (0mg sodium) are the lowest-sodium sides. Each item card above shows the exact sodium content so you can make informed choices.

Panda Express Refresher & Beverage Calories

The Panda Express beverage menu includes a range of options that can add meaningful calories to your total order. Here's what to know before you order:

Panda Express Refreshers — The fruit-based refresher drinks are a popular choice, but they contain added sugar that can contribute 100–200+ calories per serving depending on size. The Passion Mango Black Tea Lemonade and similar blended drinks are among the most calorie-dense beverage options.
Fountain Drinks & Lemonade — Standard sodas and lemonades add 100–300 calories depending on size. Choosing a diet soda or unsweetened drink eliminates this entirely.
Water — Always zero calories. The single best beverage choice for calorie management at Panda Express.
Hot Tea — If available, unsweetened hot tea is essentially zero calories and a great lower-caffeine alternative.
