Restaraunt Review…..PF CHANGS.
So I went to PF Changs tonight for dinner with some friends. Let me start off with the food. First, we had 3 appetizers. We ordered the Lettuce wraps, they were a favorite with the whole group a perfect 10. Then, we had the salt and pepper calamari, It was perfectly fried and seasoned to a greatness one can’t describe with justice. Another perfect 10. Then we ordered the Seared Ahi Tuna….it was a disappointment to the whole group. It was over seasoned and the mustard sauce was way to powerful, it left us wondering if it was Tuna we were eating after all. I give it a 4.
Our main courses were delivered in perfect timing after we finished all of our appetizers. In no particular order we had the Mongolian Beef, Kung Pao chicken (2 people ordered this), Chow Mein Combo, Sichuan Chicken Chow Fun, And the Chow Mein Chicken. The Mongolian Beef (my personal fav) was delicious as always. It scored a 9. The Kung pao was done to a good degree of delightfulness it scored a 7 and an 8 from the 2 ladies who ordered it. The Chow Mein Combo was a disappointment to its orderer it received only a 6, The Chicken Chow Mein ordered by the Beautiful Mrs. Conservative Buckeye received rave reviews except for the slimy mushrooms (she hates mushrooms though) she gave it a solid 8. My vote for the surprise of the night goes to the Sichuan Chicken Chow Fun, It was made with thick large delicious noodles that tasted almost like dumplings, the sauce was well prepared and overall it was enjoyed by everyone. It received a 9.5.
The overall experience was lowered by being placed right next to the kitchen door, and a rude hostess who wasn’t very patient. The Food was enough to give the restaurant an overall score of 7.5 which isn’t bad for a chain restaurant. I know for sure I will return and I will order the Sichuan Chicken Chow Fun. For $8.95 it is a must order for its taste, presentation, and size. It is truly a FUN dish.
