About This Dish

The Party Size Side is a single catering tray of any side at Panda Express: $22.00 for a tray serving ten to twelve people. It is how you scale one component rather than committing to a full bundle, and it is the flexible piece of the catering menu.

Any side on the line goes in it. Chow mein for a crowd that expects noodles, fried rice for a group ordering something sauced, Super Greens when the table needs a vegetable option that people will actually eat. The tray arrives in a half sized aluminum pan that holds heat through a normal service window, and it reheats acceptably in an oven if the event runs long.

The brand publishes a calorie range for the tray rather than a fixed number, because the figure depends entirely on which side fills it. The per serving numbers on the individual side pages are the useful reference: 600 calories for Chow Mein, 620 for Fried Rice, 130 for Super Greens. A tray of greens and a tray of fried rice are not comparable orders in any nutritional sense, even at the same price.

How much is a Party Size Side? $22.00 per tray, one of the published catering prices, feeding ten to twelve as a side portion.

It suits topping up a bundle that is short on one thing, or building a custom catering order tray by tray. Pair it with Party Size Entrees for a build your own approach, or start from a bundle such as the $119.00 package. The catering calculator prices any combination of trays for your headcount.
