Revisited this time with our 2 trusted and well trained food-ids. Previous review of 4* stands (from Nov 23). Location was convenient (as passing by/through) and again needing to fill the bellies up after a longish day out. Pan Pan successfully managed to just curb the Pan-Asian craving.

Adding pajeon to my favourite Asian starters 👌 Had a lovely lunch today, I'm still full and have got leftovers for later 😍 - Hoisin duck Bao (can't get enough of this!!) - Seafood pajeon - Prawn pad Thai All really well cooked and the service was great, the starters came out almost immediately! Definitely recommend Pan Pan 👏

Popped in for Monday lunch and will definitely be coming back! We ordered 5 street food dishes between the 2 of us (KFC, vegetable crispy dump, spring rolls, seafood pajeon pancake, and hoisin duck bao) and they were all excellent and just the right amount of food. The servers were lovely, and very helpful with recommending how many dishes we should get to share. Highly recommend!

Pan Pan never seems to fail us when we visit the restaurant! When we have a free night Pan Pan is our go to location as the food never disappoints and the service is always polite and attentive. We haven't been for a while but it was great to see the prices haven't jumped up and still deliver good food at reasonable prices! And the frozen beer glasses take you away to past holidays in east Asia sipping a cold beer!!

Conveniently on St Clements if avoiding the centre and driving/passing through Oxford. There is parking nearby. Grab a fix of Asian fusion options here. Menu is enough just for that, simple and not too complicated for the kitchen. Not really imo authentic tastes but will do to curb a craving. Korean fried chicken is our fave. Hainan rice is white rice, not seasoned. Bubble Tea is a drink that you add and pay extra for the tapioca bubbles. Japchae with beef also lovely. Don’t recommend the Thai green curry or spring rolls personally.

If you’re ever in Oxford fancying some Asian food, I highly recommend Pan Pan - a fab little independent restaurant. Popped in for lunch for the first time today with my husband and ordered kun mandu (pork dumplings), chicken laksa and chicken thai green curry…they did not disappoint! The dumplings were plump and juicy, the green curry was fragrant and the laksa packed on helluva flavour punch with perfectly cooked chicken. Thank you Pan Pan, we will be back!

I had my lunch which was Indonesian Satay with beef and Oolong tea. The food was excellent, exactly original Indonesian taste brought in a big portion together with a bowl of steam rice and a very fresh and tasty salad. Prices rather small according to the quality and quantityof food and great service 10+for the Chef. The server , Julia was extremely kind, helpful, professional, smiling all the time. 10+ Inside is a nice music , not very loud, but exactly how it should be in a small cozy Asian food place. Very peaceful and relaxing. However, it was the first time when I came to eat in this place. I walked inside, but I walked outside immediately to check the Korean pub on the opposite side of the road. Why? Because Pan Pan it doesn't look so great decorated from outside and I didn't trust it so much. I ve lived in Thailand and traveled in whole indochina for 20 years. I wanted an authentic taste of Asian food. So, I came back 3 min later because the other Korean pub was closed, so I didn't have a choice. And I didn't regret any second ! I felt absolutely great in Pan Pan! I recommend from whole my heart 💯 ❤❤❤❤❤ I ll come back at Pan Pan for sure. Pan Pan is not only a fake advertising, but for sure" The real taste of Asian Far East". Thank you, Chef, Julita and all Pan Pan staff for your brilliant work❤❤❤

We booked the restaurant for our sons graduation meal - his choice. We were a group of seven family members traveling in from London, Belgium, Essex and the Midlands. We were met with a warm welcome and shown to our table. Not all of our group arrived together, so we ordered drinks and waited the arrival of the rest of the family. The staff waited patiently until all had arrived, a drink had been had and then they approached for our orders. We ordered crispy calamari, sticky ribs. Kimchee, spring rolls, chicken Laksa, chicken Pad Thai, chicken Pho, and many more dishes. The food arrived about 15-30 minutes later which in our opinion was a perfect period of time. The food was hot, very tasty and our only disappointment was we were too full to eat it all. The bill was very reasonable and we will return.

So disappointed with the food. Ordered the Tebboki which was a very odd texture and not as I expected. I could forgive this though, but it got worse. They had a separate vegan menu which I was very excited about. I ordered the vegan pad Thai. My friend ordered the non vegan one. When they brought it to the table we double checked and I was told I had the vegan one. I started eating and discovered egg in it. They had mixed them up. They apologised and remade them but I was very upset. It is just not ok, especially with a separate vegan menu. It was not that flavoursome, a good pad Thai is so delicious, but not this one. I left half and asked to take it away with me. The waiter lifted the plate onto a tray and then used his hands to flick a loose noodle onto the plate, disgusting. Did I take it home with me. No. Will I return. No.

Pan Pan is indeed on the snug side, and the interior must be described as basic; the demographic was overwhelmingly youthful (so a bit intimidating for us oldies) BUT the food is mind-blowingly excellent - fresh, intense flavours, beautifully cooked elements superbly put together so that each mouthful was a blissful experience to be savoured. Am definitely going back for my birthday - they do have seating upstairs where there's a bit more space. And very reasonable prices.

The food was outstanding but the service was below par. We had to ask for our drinks 3 times, we had to cancel my son’s food order because it didn’t arrive in time and he also was served the wrong drink. Other gusts had similar issues on the night we were there. Such a shame because the food and venue are both outstanding.

Called in on a Wednesday night as it looked nice and warm inside. Very friendly staff and a cosy restaurant. Food was great we had boa buns as a starter. My missus had hoi nam for main which was a good size portion and i had Malaysian style duck curry (which was very warming on a cold wet November evening). Prices were good, just over £40 with drinks. Will call back next time in Oxford.

Descubrí Pan Pan durante el bloqueo frente a una aplicación de entrega todos los días. Estaba deseando algo de comida del este de Asia. Desde entonces, probablemente he pedido 4 o 5 veces. Mi experiencia es de 5 estrellas sin duda, sin embargo, al leer algunas de las malas críticas, las entiendo totalmente. La mayoría de los platos de Pan Pan son deliciosos. Sin embargo, también es cierto que la mayoría de los deliciosos platos son menos conocidos por el gran público. Por ejemplo, no le recomendaría pedir el pad Thai (me decepcionó tanto como la gente en otras reseñas), pero después de haber probado una amplia variedad de platos de su menú, puedo recomendar sus platos de tofu, el Bibimbap, los curry y la mayoría de los entrantes.Pan pan es una experiencia, así que intenta salir de lo que normalmente pedirías en cualquier otro restaurante y estar abierto a probar diferentes sabores.

Una completa farsa. En serio, Pad Thai es la apuesta más segura para pedir en cualquier lugar. De alguna manera, Pan - Pan hizo que tuviera un sabor súper suave, aparentemente pollo precocido, verduras poco cocidas y fideos sin sabor. Y además de eso, sus porciones no reflejaban de ninguna manera el precio. No entiendo por qué tienen críticas altas, nunca volveré a malgastar mi dinero allí. Y tú tampoco deberías.

Pedimos una variedad de platos a través de una aplicación de entrega, y lamento decir que nos decepcionó cada uno. La comida era mediocre, sin verduras frescas ni especias delicadas.

We come here regularly for lunch or dinner when we’re in Oxford, as there is really no Asian restaurant quite like it in the area. The food is fresh and delicious. The food can take some time to come out, but I think that is testament to the care that is taken to prepare each meal. Nothing is simply heated up and slopped on a plate - every dish feels truly special. A must try - it’s worth the walk to St Clements!!

My son and his girlfriend took my wife and I to Pan Pan last Saturday evening promising us we would have a great evening, they were true to their word. A small restaurant in a trendy area out of the centre of Oxford there is a really nice feel to this place. The staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for us during our stay, however its the food that makes this restaurant stand out. We chose the selection of small dishes, loads to select from, all very very tasteful, especially my favourite the Calamari. I could have stayed there all night and just kept picking more and more dishes but of course you can't do that! The Hendrix was served just as we like, not something places always get right. This really is a gem, the food is excetionally tasty, the staff friendly and attentive, if you give Pan Pan a try I am sure you will love it as we did.

We had booked to go here on a Saturday evening but walked along in the early afternoon to see if we could change the booking. In the event we were the only people there. The menu was impressive with dishes from various countries and we chose a selection around the table. All were expertly cooked and delicious, but were let down slightly by the basic tin dishes and plates they were served on. This might be something of the ambiance of the place but having been to Korea, Thailand, Laos, Malaysia and Cambodia I am not sure it was typical of those countries.

Our friends are both veggie and both had a tofu dish with and egg in the top. One friend commented that some of the dish the mushrooms in particular were cold but as we did not know the dish perhaps that was how it was meant to be served. My husband enjoyed his Thai duck dish immensely and I enjoyed my prawns. The beer was on tap and good, service was very efficient and the food good value for money.

We arrived on a Saturday evening for a pre booked dinner. We were seated, and then the wait started, waiting 20 minutes to see a drinks menu, then waiting again to order drinks. we ordered food before the drinks came, then got through our drinks before starters had even arrived, called over a server for another round then our food and drinks came together. we ate and the food was excellent. the yakitori was very very good. we finally had our plates taken and then yet another long wait and another drink gone. while we were waiting a server finally said 'oh do you want your mains?' then more of a wait we received our dishes and they were far better then I had thought they would be and everyone was pleased with the food. When we finally finished a two course dinner had taken two and a quarter hours, which even for a Saturday is ridiculous.

Pan Pan calles itself a place of asian street food. One can choose to share different options from the starters menu or go for a bigger main dish. I went for Pho with beef which was not marked as spicy, but for me it was since I have little tollerance to spicy food, so I would prefer them to put a bit spicy singh. A friend had a main with the first level of spiciness, but it was very spicy for her (even she is big fan of spicy food). They have some choise of asian beers, but no cider. The staff was friendly, but was talking in Polish way too loud. The dessert 'cinnamon bun with ice cream' was OK. A nice place to try, but is not my favourite.

The chenin blanc wine we ordered was a bit thin and not sharp enough for my taste. Overall, we enjoyed our food and the service was quick and pleasant. We didn't order dessert as there was nothing we fancied on the menu. For two starters, two mains, and a bottle of wine it came to £55 which we thought was good value for money.

We visited on 3rd Jan for lunch. We had excellent food from the very reasonably priced lunch menu. Our server was lovely and friendly. The restaurant and toilets were lovely and clean. We will go back

We tried pan Pan for the first time ever and were very happy with both the quality and quantity. The pork buns are nicely filled and the buns are really soft. We tried the yaki noodles and rice with crispy chicken and both were delicious.

Visited on a Saturday night when it was quite busy. We were seated in the cosy upstairs area which had lovely modern decor. Despite us being upstairs, the service was very quick and attentive. Prices for drinks and food were more than reasonable and much cheaper than similar places in Oxford.

We were quickly seated despite the busyness of the restaurant, and service was stellar throughout the meal.

This place is a hidden gem. The food is always amazing and service is great. I especially like that they have kirin beer on tap. Worth the little walk from the city centre to eat here. Very good value for money and very tasty food!

Did a walk in on a Tuesday evening without booking, we got one of the last tables, this was a good sign. The number of Deliveroo drivers coming and going was also good.

Was searching for a nearby korean / asian restaurant for hot food when we decided to visit this resto. I love the ambiance of the place. The asian waiter/ girl was quite nice and friendly. We had crispy calamari and I also had Curry laksa. My friend had roast duck and rice. The calamari was great and the laksa was perfect for me, my friend liked his toast duck and rice. We were there for sometime when there were a couple of slightly drunk guy who came in and wanted to have some more drinks but i liked the way the manager? was able to handle them. We would definitely come back to this resto if we are in Oxford again

I've tried the big pan-asian restuarants in Oxford (Thaikhun, Banana Tree, Chiang Mai) but they are nowhere near as good as this gem of a little place in St Clements. Recommend: starters of chicken satay (spicy satay sauce to die for!) then prawn green thai curry - with lovely bits of courgette and aubergine lurking in the creamy, hot but fresh green sauce. PLUS decent sized king prawns, not soggy barely defrosted prawns I had in Thiakhun just days before. My hubbie had curry beef laksa for main and declared it the best thing ever! Get yourself over the bridge and try this place - as well as highly recommended Qimins for Oxford's best indian curry and Moya best Slovakian in the UK!

Fantastic food in this place. it's off the beaten track so criminally quiet, even on a Friday night. The owners also run the pub next door, so doubly worth the effort to get there. Honestly amongst the best food I've eaten, and I'm in my fifties so have eaten a lot of meals over the years. Go visit!!

This review might come as a shock to everyone, but out of the many Sri Lankan restaurants I've been to, this by far has been the worst. The service was really bad. Our plates came with hair, afterwhich the waiter simply took it to a corner, wiped it and brought back the same plate. We pointed out to him that there was hair on the plate so we needed another to which he replied "what do you want". Very rude. The food is nothing close to what you'd taste at Kolamba, Colombo Kitchen, Hoppers or Machan. The authentic SL taste is no where near any of the dishes. The choice of menu is very poor. Lots of classic dishes missing. Portion sizes are so small compared to the price which is a similar price to the above mentioned places. The restaurant felt very unhygienic. Very sorry but terrible first experience, will not return.

The service was warm and friendly, and the atmosphere was lovely. However, the chicken tandoori was a bit tough instead of the desired moist and juicy texture inside, and it was missing the smoky flavor.

Our food arrived, but unfortunately, we were given a korma instead of the korai dish we had ordered. When we called to inform them of the mistake, they offered us a choice between a credit or delivering the correct dish. We opted for the latter since one of our family members was left without a meal.
