Undeservedly Stuffy and Below Average Food

This was my third time to P.F. Changs and I was disappointed as usual. We went as a large group of 10 for my brother's birthday. The waitress was short and curt to everyone the whole time - almost rude. Found out later that my Mom had been instrructed on the many restrictions in place for large parties by the management when she called for info. on reservations. The food was mediocre at best. Could have had the same flavor at the local Chinese takeout for a lot less. Have been to China twice and have eaten more "authentic" at other places in Orlando. What can I say other than don't waste you time, money or emotional expense at this place.
- Cons: Bad ambience, service and over-rated/priced food.
Consistently good "Chinese-ish" Food - A Bit Overpriced.

It's a chain. What do you expect? Consistency? P.F. Chang's got that along with a host of dishes inspired by the more familiar fare at your neighborhood Chinese restaurant. While I've never had a bad experience at P.F. Chang's, I've also never had an exceptional experience. Most dishes are competently prepared, but highly priced for what they are ($13.50 for what essentially is some fried chunks of chicken tossed in sweet and sour sauce?). The Kung Pao shrimp is by far the best tasting dish, but don't take the leftovers home. After putting a small box of Kung Pao shrimp in my refrigerator overnight, I realized the next morning that the sumptuous taste was ensured by a large helping of grease, which, in the cooler envrionment of the ice box had solidified into a square, translucent mass encasing the shrimp. I really wish I hadn't seen that.
- Pros: Decent food - never had a bad dish
- Cons: Overpriced - not very healthy for you
This gussied-up chain bustles with singles and families craving Chinese food favorites.

In Short
Towering twin stallions and carved wood screens add majesty and mystery to this stylish restaurant, where well-dressed patrons sip martinis at the bar and families with children feast around large tables or in spacious booths. The menu gives Chinese classics a contemporary tweak; dishes are artfully presented, with many sauces made tableside by servers. Signature plates include diced chicken wrapped in cool lettuce leaves, orange-peel beef with chili peppers, and wok-fried scallops with lemon sauce.

This is one of my all time favorite resturants and definately the best Chinese ever. The prices are great and you get tons of food. It is a good place to go and order a couple different dishes and share. The crab wontons have real crab meat, and the chicken lettuce wrap are awesome. My favorite dish that is so hard to stray from is the orange peel shrimp, a little spicy and sweet. If you like Chinese you have to try PF Chang's you will not be disappointed.
1st Class all the way!

PF Chang's is my absolute favorite place to eat chinese food. The portions are really worth the money, and they have a great wine and drink selection if you want to make it a special occassion. The servers there are phenominal and really know the food....plus they are all great to look at. Also, the ambiance is relaxed and I always enjoy myself.
- Pros: Good Value, Outstanding Service, Yummy Food
- Cons: Parking

I was waiting to try this place because I heard so many good things about it. When I finally went there for lunch, I was very disappointed.
- Pros: nice atmosphere
- Cons: too expensive, too spicy, too noisy

This is a fun restaurant to visit for something different & out of the ordinary. We loved the ambience & the service was very good. My only suggestion is to add a little more vegetarian items to the menu.
Good Chinese and a Nice Place to Eat

PF Chang's has been a favorite restaurant of ours for several years. The restaurant is clean, exciting, and fun. That is a very nice contrast to many of the local chinese restaurants around. The location in Winter Park is just wonderful, and makes for a nice dinner date. The choices are somewhat limited, but the selection is wonderful, our personal favorites is the spicy lemon shrimp!
- Pros: Well Located, Great Atmosphere, Fun
- Cons: noisy, crowded
FOR THOSE WHO RATE PF CHANG'S AS POOR...

IF YOU ONLY ATE AT CHANG'S ONCE, PERHAPS IT WASN'T A GOOD DAY OR NIGHT TO GO. TRY AGAIN, IT CAN BE BETTER. IF YOU THINK THE FOOD ISN'T AS GOOD AS ANY OTHER YOU HAD, YOU NEVER WILL UNLESS YOU GO OVERSEAS. NOTHING IN U.S.A. IS ORIGINAL OR AUTHENTIC EXCEPT FOR THE COUNTRY'S OWN AMERICAN FOOD. OVERSEAS, MCDONALD'S IS JUST WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT CHINESE FOOD HERE. SO UNLESS YOU GO OVERSEAS, NOTHING IS ORIGINAL, SO JUST ENJOY WHAT & HOW OUR COUNTRY COOK IT BUT DON'T EXPECT IT TO BE ORIGINAL. I LIVED OVERSEAS, AND I KNOW THAT CHANG'S ISN'T AS AUTHENTIC, AND IT NEVER CAN BE, BUT I STILL THINK THAT PF CHANG'S IS EXCELLENT. IT IS EXCELLENT FOOD UNTIL I GO BACK OVERSEAS. I KNOW THAT OTHER LOCAL CHINESE PLACES IS WORSE. CHANG'S FAR MORE BETTER. THOSE OF YOU WHO RATED CHANG'S POORLY, THINK AGAIN.
