Panda Express now open at Tanglewood Mall in Roanoke County

ROANOKE, Va. – Folks in the Roanoke Valley have a new spot to grab Chinese-style food!

Panda Express celebrated its grand opening at Tanglewood Mall on Wednesday.

The restaurant’s opening is just part of a redevelopment project to bring life back to the Tanglewood Mall area.

Other new dining additions in the area include Chicken Salad Chick, Chipotle and Jersey Mike’s, which are all already open for business.

Blaze Pizza, Popeyes and the long-awaited, highly-anticipated Chili’s will come to the Roanoke Valley soon enough.

Opening dates for all three restaurants have not been announced; however, construction for Popeyes and Chili’s is expected to begin this year.
