Panda Express is serving sushi at 16 U.S. locations, including Houston, Chicago and Las Vegas.
"They make their sushi fresh every day; replenish every two hours and display in a refrigerated shelf/compartment," said Liz Miller, Panda Express spokesperson.
There are several variations of sushi offered that vary from location to location. Miller said the Asian fast-casual offers California, Sunrise, spicy tuna and rainbow sushi rolls. The restaurant also offers select fish on rice and several sushi combo packages.
The company does not have sushi sales figures yet, but Miller said the sushi-selling locations are doing well. She said the locations on universities are doing the best because, "it gives students variety."
The latest sushi location opened at Kansas State University.
"There's nothing Japanese-oriented around here, and it's been successful at other universities," said general manager Adam Settler to the KSU newspaper. "I think it'll go over really well."
