Dined at P.F. Chang's on Tuesday August 11th in the bar area. Very attentive service - couldn't ask for more friendly folks tending the bar. Enjoyed the "Happy Hour" menu - including Tuna TarTar, pan seared pot stickers and calamari. The food was equally impressive and the views from the glass walls made for a wonderful dining experience. While there, we all watched a small tornado form and then go back up into the wall cloud - which was extremely interesting from the restaurant vantage point on a high hill looking West. The manager was visible and was walking around speaking with the various customers and seemed very sincere. During the 20 minutes or so that we were all watching the funnel cloud, he did make a point of switching the channel to a local channel which was covering the weather and assign the bartender to "keep an eye" on the weather warnings for him. Also mentioning that if necessary he may need help getting customers and employees to safety, in case the tornado continued to develop and head towards the restaurant. Anyway - this place is well ran, very clean (I watched the bar tenders cleaning the beer fridge and there wasn't much build up), great fresh food, and great employees - interested in team work. I'll be back in a few months, when I return to town.

Maybe I just ordered the wrong food but it just wasn't very tasty. I had curry vegetables and tofu. I like each one separately but together just did not hit the spot. My husband and dad thought theirs was ok. The sushi we ordered was tasty. I believe it was a scallop roll. The ginger was very good. I will say the place was buzzing. There were high school kids there before homecoming. That was nice and they were well behaved. Lots of birthday dinners and it was Friday night. I had a reservation and we had to wait maybe 10 extra minutes Our server was delightful. Friendly and she kept her eyes on our drinks. Well I just had water. Yes boring but I had wine earlier I haven't been in awhile and it will be awhile before I go back. Chinese is not my favorite food so if I eat it I need to love what I ordered

Rejoice! If you are looking for boring Chinese-ish entrees with sugary flavorless syrup coatings you have found your Mecca. Looking to pay about twice what those dishes should cost? Well, then has P.F. Chang's got a deal for you! I stopped in for lunch and had their "signature" spicy chili chicken entree and an order of 4 pork pot stickers - all for the svelte price of $30. The pot stickers were bland and uninspiring. The entree was far from spicy, tasting more like Chicken McNuggets in a slightly better sweet & sour sauce than the one found under the Golden Arches. At least it had a decent amount of chicken in it. Congratulations to P.F. Chang's for truly nailing the mediocre chain restaurant experience. First time. Last time.

Yummy! Such a beautiful establishment, love the large windows and exposed beams! Its been over 5 years since I've been in a pfChangs, yet they still have those delicious crisp chicken lettuce wraps and A+ wontons. I was missing the Lamb, if I remember it used to come out on a bed of cilantro, and the double pan fried noodles. Maybe they were under another name? But the seemingly 'boring' broccoli beef, had tender cuts of beef that made it easily my fave of the night.

Very good and consistent as it normally is. Reasonable happy hour prices. We ordered pork dumplings, lettuce wraps (the best), crispy green beans (2nd best), and the chicken satay (if you dont like curry, dont order this). We also order the sangria which was $5 and had some fruit in it... also good.

One of my favorite establishments in the Park Meadows area, because the dine-in experience is a must. The views, breathtaking. The atmosphere, pleasant and warm. The food, always a win in my book. Whether we take a seat at the bar for some drinks and apps, or a booth in the dining room, I am always satisfied with the service. A few weeks ago, I ordered a vodka sprite with a lemon, choosing Kettle One vodka. The bartender was charming as he made our drinks, and stepped aside to cut some fresh lemons. I continued to chat with my friend and didn't watch him actually make the drinks. He set them down, asked if we were ready to order our food, and then promptly realized he had used the wrong vodka in my drink! I told him not to fret or worry, that I would be ordering a second drink later and would fix it then. He insisted that he remake the drink, admitting to his mistake. I was beyond impressed and was happy to give him the large tip he deserved. I only wish I had gotten his name! It's because of service like that, something so simple, that I continue to revisit P.F. Chang's at Park Meadows.

I love P F Changs! Have been a fan for years! The quality of the food varies from one store to another. The best food is at the one in Scottsdale AZ, but, Park Meadows does a pretty good job of serving consistently good food.

Came to town late and looking for a place to have good Chinese food. Their crab fried rice( new menu item) is one of the best I ever had. This is one restaurant open late and that is one reason for me to come here their closing time in week days are 10pm! Bar tender was really nice and friendly and took care of my order without any trouble. Place is big and beautiful atmosphere would definitely stop here again.

Went out tonight and had lemongrass chicken salad, pork dumpling appetizers, edamame, and some combination fried rice. There were wo people in our party, our waiter was David. The place was packed, but the service was good and David was extremely friendly and made our experience wonderful. He was extremely busy but didn't seem bothered in the least which kept us relaxed and the sunset was beautiful on the patio.

One of my favorite restaurants, however the service we received here tonight just...well..sucked. I went here to grab a bite to eat with a co worker after work and upon arriving at the entrance we were greeted promptly at the door by the host and immediately given a table. That was the best part about tonight other than the food. The waitress we had, Colby, left much to be desired of how a true waitress should be. From the start she wasn't very friendly. We ordered our food with no extra emphasis from her on any specials or recommendations. She brought out our drinks (diet coke and strawberry cucumber limeade) with no issue but failed to keep them replenished. Another waiter actually came by to ask if I wanted a refill. I watched our waitress become friendly with the guy who was eating alone near our table and after awhile both my co worker and I noticed that the restaurant had a shift. The side we were sitting on had all the ethnic groups while the rest of the restaurant was vastly predominantly white. When we asked for the tab Colby brought it and gathered our plates- that still had food on them- not once offering if we wanted her to wrap up the remaining portions we hadn't eaten- something I'm accustomed them to being asked at every other PF Changs I've visited. She promptly took our card for the payment though without saying a word and brought back the receipt for signature dropping off two cookies without a word as well. Upon leaving and standing up it was confirmed- all along the east side were nothing but whites and even as we were gathering our stuff to go they brought another ethnic family to the same area we were in while there were many other places available to sit. In our area there were five total ethnic families including the two of us. I've always heard Colorado was a racist state and visiting this restaurant almost confirms to me there may be truth to the statement. Either way the food was ok, rice was a bit hard for my taste. We ordered sesame chicken and Mongolian beef. Even with the food being ok I don't recommend visiting here if you want great service and you're ethnic.

We went here last weekend and the wait time was over an hour! Once we got in, I found the waiters and waitresses to be only ok. During the course of our dinner, we ended having 3 different waiters/waitresses serving us. So I wasn't sure who to leave the tip for. The food tasted good but, my friend ended up getting sick afterwards. I'm not sure if I'll go back.

I don't care if it's a chain, I love P.F. Chang's. This one has the added bonus of a wonderful patio and glorious view, but has the downside of being in the Park Meadows parking lot. Why is that a downside? Because now that it's the Christmas shopping season I may crave some of their tasty lettuce wraps, but I'm not even going to consider it! Of course if you already have to fight the crowds then this is a much better place to eat than most spots in the mall. I usually come here to fill up on tasty apps, like those lettuce wraps, dumplings and flaming red wontons - yum! Recently I've been in the mood for something new and just discovered a love for their Ginger Chicken with Broccoli. Yummy! They also make a pretty mean cocktail if you're so inclined, which I often am. Portions can be big, but what's better than leftover Chinese food, right?

A friend and I stopped by for happy hour. We like the environment of the bar. But unfortunately everything else is lacking. We ordered the spicy tuna roll . And it looks like something I could make. The pieces were cut unevenly, some pieces were twice as large as others. And only one side was sauced. Have some pride in what you're making. Happy hour is supposed to be somewhat of a deal. 7 dollars for a spicy tuna roll, I could get a better one at almost any sushi restaurant for that. (Photo evidence supplied) We also tried their pork dumplings. I'm not sure what differentiates pot stickers from pork dumplings but they pretty much seemed like pot stickers to me. Not dumplings. The final annoying thing was that we had all three bartenders helping us which on one hand might be considered good as opposed to not being able to get a bartender's attention. But after placing a drink order with one and being interrupted repeatedly by being asked if we would like another by all bartenders it felt a little Three Stooges.

The place was very busy even at 8 pm on a Saturday evening. The service was very good, but the food was definitely average. The sauce for the lettuce wraps was extremely salty and we had to request new lettuce because the original plate had brown lettuce on it. The gluten free spicy chicken was very good. The chicken Pad Thai was pretty bad. There was what looked to be grill scrapings in it and the tofu was not good at all. Nice location and building but the food quality really brings down the rating.

Beyond disappointed with the quality of server education at this location. I have been coming to PF Changs for quite some time b/c I have Celiac's and they are normally very on top of what "Gluten Free" is with menus, labeled plates and ramekins and even GF station in the kitchen and a dedicated GF fryer. We ordered 3 different items off of the gluten free menu. The server seemed a little confused from the get go. Then the server came back and mentioned that there is a little bit of soy sauce used in the gluten free option. Which baffled me why they couldn't use Tamari? Regardless I told him I had Celiac's and to just steam the dish instead. My partners dish ended up have fried pieces of meat in it. We checked to make sure they were gluten free and we were assured fried meat was. We have never seen a gluten free dish come out with batter fried meat at PF Changs before. Within 1 hour of eating we were both beyond sick. Typically when I get glutened it makes me sick for over 2 weeks. We will not be back to this location again. Post gluten poisoning follow up from PF Changs has also been an absolute nightmare. I have tweeted, messaged on social media, direct messaged, yelped and called this location. I have received 2 tweets from PF Changs claiming they were sorry in a tweet and asked to email them. I emailed them and did not get a response. I then tweeted again and received a second tweet that I would be followed up with. Still no response. They have a new marketing push for their #GlutenFree community. Yet this location I have no trust for. I was sick for weeks after eating there.

I usually am not comfortable eating at Asian restaurants because i have a tree nut allergy, and most Asian restaurants have a fair amount of tree nuts. I really appreciate the effort this establishment makes twords my allergy. I always feel comfortable and confident when i get my meal that it will be okay. I highly recommend if you have any sort of allergy or dietary restrictions, or if your just picky. The good is amazing too. I personally love the lettuce wraps and honey shrimp. Yum!

I don't know this place has an average 3 star rating, the food is always great and they are very accommodating especially when it comes to picky eaters like me. I love the view, and the little candles and dim light always gives it a nice romantic vibe, without having to pay outrageous prices.

We have eaten here several times, most recently today at lunch. Every time we have been here, the place is packed with hungry customers. We always have lower expectations of chains, but I have to say this one is doing something right. The bomb for us was the Dynamite Shrimp appetizer, appropriately named, absolutely wonderful. Chicken lettuce wrap and lemongrass chicken were decent but not fabulous. I did not taste much lemongrass in the chicken, although the chicken pieces were moist, tender, fresh, and everything in the salad was fresh. Lemonade was a disappointment in that it seemed to be from a fountain and for $3 rather a ripoff. Overall: 3.5 stars.

I am really torn about this P.F. Changs. On the one hand it has beautiful views and a tempting ambiance but on the other service and food can vary wildly. I love their sweet and sour soup...it just has the best flavor despite being less authentic than most. The lettuce wraps are fresh and always fun with the dipping sauce blended to your exact specifications. The prices are steep and the servers can be fickle. I would consider Purple Ginger, Indochine or ChoLon if you are going to pay these prices. ****I confess that I remain tainted by one unfortunate experience with a server that makes me leery of the place. He refilled my teens sodas and at the end of the meal there was almost $20 in soda refill charges....stinker. I would have declined their refills for them had I known he was charging $3.00 a pop. (pun intended :-))

We have always loved PF Chang's but this location is now a "test kitchen". This means many of our old favorites are no longer on the menu and lots of new things showing up that are just ok or a "work in progress". The management runs around the restaurant soliciting feedback from diners which is just plain annoying when you are trying to enjoy conversation with friends. If you were a fan of the delicious Ahi Crisps, they now serve a pile of Ahi with chips that you are supposed to use to scoop up the fish. It is a mess to eat and impossible to share but no doubt reduced their food cost. I am sure they won't bring back the old menu items but we are not interested in dining in their test kitchen. Disappointing. It was a trusty go-to place for us.

Usually over priced and over loud this place does have very good food. Just had lunch there today and the meal was reasonably priced and portioned. I ordered the egg drop soup (avoid their hot & sour soup, more on that later) and the crispy honey shrimp (my favorite)! It was just the right portion sizes and I escaped for under $13. That's a somewhat pricey lunch but, what do you expect, it's P.F. Chang's at Park Meadows! For my biggest beef with P.F. Chang's. Would you please get a new recipe for your Hot & Sour Soup? It's one of my favorite things about Chinese food, I use it as a gauge of the restaurant, and your hot & sour soup is awful. It just doesn't taste right. I know very few people that like the hot & sour soup here.

Karen A.
I'm sad to say the tuna roll was a total disappointment. Firm rice and a Bland Center of tuna left me bewildered how this could go so wrong. I finally unrolled the rice only to find a slimy mush. Did they expect me to bury this in soy sauce to give it flavor? Really??? The kitchen is cutting corners for lack of available quality ingredients. This was obviously the old bits and pieces of their other offerings. Time to shape up and have the management concentrate on quality control. The iced green tea was nice though...

The first thing you should know is that I go here a lot. Take the number you think is "a lot" and multiply it by 6. That's how much I go. And I can honestly say that I have not one complaint. The service is great, all of the waiters and waitresses I have ever had have been friendly and on top of things. The food is great. I highly recommend the chicken lettuce wraps. They are a must. The honey chicken and Chang's spicy chicken are also on my list of favorites, along with the beef fried rice. Word of advice - split a couple of entrees with your group so that you get to try a bit of everything. And I know you will be looking at the dessert menu and thinking "banana spring rolls?" Get them. They are simply divine.

I haven't been to PF Chang's in a few years, but have always enjoyed their food and atmosphere. My husband, son and I had dinner there last Saturday evening. We had a reservation and didn't have to wait too long for our table to be ready, even though the place was packed. We had an excellent server and really enjoyed our meals. We look forward to coming back again!

PF Chang's Chicken I think PF Chang's chicken is good. It is in the PF Chang's restaurant. You order in the front of the building. PF Chang's chicken is good. It taste like yummy delicious orange chicken. It sounds like steaming good chicken. The last reason is it is a little slimy. I think PF Chang's chicken is great. It is very good because of how it taste,smells,and feels. You should try this chicken.

This place continues to provide hit and miss service. I made dinner reservations for 6 people at 5:30 on a Monday evening to celebrate my mother's birthday. Our waiter was not good. He could not have been less interested in taking care of our table. When he arrived at our table we asked if it was still Happy Hour. His response "If it's still before 6:00." I advised him that it was and then asked what their Happy Hour deals were. He had no idea and had to run off to go find a Happy Hour menu. Upon his return we ordered 3 glasses of wine, 1 beer, and 2 kid's drinks. 20 MINUTES LATER - I had to ask if they were ever going to arrive to our table. Our Happy Hour food arrived well before our drinks. For appetizers we ordered crab wontons and two orders of lettuce wraps - all were good. Entrees were fine as well. Really, we have never had an issue with the food. I did let our server know we were celebrating a birthday but that didn't seem to matter to him. We then ordered 4 desserts to share between the 6 of us. He took that order and within a minute, arrived with our check which included the desserts. Really? We aren't even done eating and haven't received our desserts yet and you are bringing us the check?! Was disappointed and sad that my mother had to celebrate her birthday at a restaurant that was so uninterested in making this a nice evening for her. Thinking this may have been our last visit.

This PF Chang is near the mall, which makes it a fancy alternative to a Panda Express food court egg roll. The menu is extensive, and generally the food is good. I like the lettuce wraps, myself. And don't forget the novel little sauces they provide you here. You can mix and match to make the right flavor combo, so there's that. Staff has been good to me here. There's an outdoor patio area which is large and equipped with heat lamps. All around, not bad.

So, I typically like PF Changs, it's a fairly good chain restaurant, and you always know what to expect when you order. On this particular visit, the service was lacking, but the food was exactly what you would expect from a Changs. We went at 11pm (they close at midnight on the weekends) and they had already tossed the brown rice for the night (an hour before closing?) and there was really no apology for it, our server just brought white rice and said that's all they had to offer. Then when we asked for to go containers and a side of white rice to go, our server returned to said they had already tossed it out as well now. Again, no apology for it, just stated it and packed up our food.

Of the three P.F. Changs I go to, this is my least favorite. The other day during lunch, my Mongolian beef was under-seasoned. The sauce had lumps of sugar, yes, straight sugar, in it. It must not have been mixed properly. The egg drop soup was bland, too. I'll stick to the location at Southlands.

This is the best PF Chang's I've ever been to... The szechuan bean appetizer was 3 times bigger than any other PF Chang's I've ever been to. They have a huge patio and dining area as well. Also, this place is almost fancier than any other one I've ever been to... not sure why. Great staff!

I've been to the PF Chang's downtown, in Belmar, and in Park Meadows, and I think this is my favorite of the three. We went on a Saturday night around 5:30 PM, and the line was all ready 45 minutes. We got on the list and snagged a little bit of space at the bar while we waited. Luckily, happy hour was still on, so we got drinks and some dumplings to snack on while we waited. My mai tai was as good as ever, and the lemongrass chicken dumplings were delicious. When we were eventually seated, our server was friendly and the food was up to normal PF Chang's standard. The three of us split Chang's spicy chicken, Mongolian beef, and wok-seared beef. Wok-seared beef was probably my favorite. Even though they were crowded, we got everything quickly and our server was helpful; plus, we saw both managers chipping in with clearing tables and serving lettuce wraps, which was impressive. What separates this location from the others is the wall of windows and the incredible view. In my experience, PF Chang's tends to be kind of dark, so it was great to have it be bright and look at the mountains while we enjoyed happy hour. I'm guessing that patio is pretty awesome in the summer, too. No, it's not authentic, but it's classy, consisent and delicious. I'm a fan of this PF Chang's location.

First of all, what a view from the deck!! Just too bad for us that a huge thunder down pour started right before we were about to walk in. We ended up sitting at the bar since all the deck people moved indoors but what a delightful experience we had. The staff was 100% on top of each and every customer, there were no waits or lack of service, ever. That said, the food is just as yummy as always. I love the fact that you can also get Gluten Free options on so many dishes. Both my husband and I are going to go back although this location is further away from us just so we can sit on that deck and enjoy the rockies.

Let me qualify my 3 star review to say, PF Changs is really a 3.5 star place, but compared to other PF Changs it earns a bit more. Clear as mud? OK ;) Here is the thing, my hubby and I go here for the gluten free menu. It is their main selling point for us. However, on a recent lunch trip I have to say I way more impressed with the overall feel and service at this location over others. Our waitress seemed genuinely helpful with menu items, suggest things and was prompt about bringing refills and food. This seems amazing compared to other PFC's. Plus, this one has a huge open patio with mountain views and a large bar in the center. It is light and bright. The place is great for parties large or small. Although it really fills up for lunch! Thumbs up from me!

I hadn't been to P.F. Chang in years before visiting recently during a trip to Denver but I'll definitely be visiting more after the positive experience I had. The service was great, atmosphere/decor was cozy & the food was fantastic. I ordered the mandarin chicken w/the egg rolls as an appetizer. I didn't care for the egg rolls but I ate them because I paid for them. They had a bitter taste to them & didn't have a hint of the sweetness I expected. The mandarin chicken more than made up for it though. It was delicious... the perfect blend of sweet & spicy. The chicken & veggies were cooked to perfection too. I can't wait to visit P.F. Chang again soon.

This is a shout out to the waitress who waited on the group of high school students last Saturday night before their Winter formal. I've dined at Changs off and on for many years and love the food so we recommended it to our daughter as an eating place for her and her friends prior to the dance. Let me preface this by saying that these kids are polite, always say "please" and "thank you" and know how to act in a nice restaurant. They also know how to tip. That being said, the condescending, rude waitress who waited on them and treated them like a bunch of second class citizen's has convinced me that I will never return to this restaurant. You have no right to talk down to these kids, mock them when they ask questions about the menu or basically treat them like they are not welcome and don't belong there. The feedback we received from these kids is appalling and I hope it was worth it because you also have a large group of parents who will never dine at your restaurant again.

Unfortunately the suburban attitude at the mall franchise is less than fun. The staff is not friendly, not accommodating, and less than helpful. I love the food and we were here due to being in the area for a conference, but i would definitely drive downtown as opposed to enjoying a meal here. I used to live in the area, and visited this location on multiple occasions, and each time the staff acted as if they were being put-upon to serve us. The wait is usually obscene, so call ahead if you are forced to go here.

I'd put 2.5 if I could. ordered a Mai Tai. Just like the KC one they didn't bother to mix it well. Second time this weekend someone screwed up an appetizer order. I'm guessing taking a drink order and an appetizer is too much... They were nice enough to take it off our order. Since we got it after the main course. Friend took it home. Ordered Mongolian scallops. It's cool that although its not on the menu they'll let you substitute scallops for chicken/beef. It was good, but they were a little overcooked I believe. Banana Spring rolls were the highlight. coconut-pineapple ice cream is great.

This is my favorite PF Chang's I've been to by far. They have an awesome patio with a great view and some shade. They have good gluten free options and it's always super yummy. The only negative is that going here seems super expensive for lunch, but hey, you're at Park Meadows anyway...

Parker is home to 1000x of chain restaurants, but PF Chang's is actually putting out some dishes with finess. I ordered the Wok Seared Lamb, which, mind you, it's pretty rare to see lamb on the menu of a pan-Asian restaurant. It comes nicely seasoned on a bed of lettuce, with a side of ride. It was perfectly cooked and the edges of the pieces of lamb had a good crisp to them. My dinner-date ordered the Ma Pa Tofu which I've had at authentic chinese restaurants, but I actually really liked PF Chang's as well. Instead of being a bunch of soft tofu mixed into a bunch of hot sauce, PF Chang's was cubed and fried, served with steam broccoli and the sauce on the side. The tofu was perfectly crispy on the outside and smooth and silken on the inside. It was definitely delicious. PF Chang's wouldn't be my first choice for Asian, but it beats a lot of the greasier chains the Park Meadows area.

The only "asian" restaurant I know of that serves Norwegian Salmon and plays Dire Straights over the speakers. The food is not bad, but definitely not authentic. It caters perfectly to the Park Meadows crowd. I have had the mongolian beef which is pretty good, and a bunch of other things that all blend together because they've been so bland.

The Manager sucks! There were 10 people in line waiting to pick up their take out. Ordered online and said I could pickup at 7 pm. People were waiting for 40 minutes for their food! Manager was standing around like everything was fine instead of helping customers. The service here is atrocious! Will never eat here again.

We tried to go on Saturday, arriving before 5pm. There was already an hour wait so we left and came back at 4pm on Monday. We were seated and greeted promptly. After that things began to go downhill. I have to eat gluten free and give props to PFC for having a fair GF menu. I asked for the spiciest thing on the menu, the GF Chang's spicy chicken. It was not spicy and tasted like sweet and sour chicken without the sourt but with extra sweet. I poured all the soy sauce and chili hot (not!) oil to try to kill the cloyingly sweet taste but nothing helped. My wife got the mu shu pork which they advertise as being wrapped right at your table. That must be a big thing to them but apparently not big enough to avoid the waiter turning his back to the table and you don't see anything but his ass. The table next to us got a nice show though. At least it didn't taste very good. The waiter was...efficient. Though they weren't terribly busy, he did everything as fast as possible. This is from their website: "to celebrate the tradition of chinese new year, p.f. chang's will give each guest who dines with us...a red envelope that contains a gift of good fortune." There were clearly two of us but we only got one card. I wasn't positive about the website wording or I would have called him on it. Eating there isn't something I want to do again but we still have $30 worth or gift cards!

The nite here started off slow. Literally. We were quoted a 25-30 minute wait and ended up waiting almost an hour, while parties of only 1 less than us got seated almost immediately. Fast forward to dinner - the server was awesome, the food was great, and we even got a free desert without asking. They turned what would have been a bad nite/review into a positive one. Kudos!

This is a GREAT date spot! The bar area is very fun and the bartenders are quite attentive to you when your blind date is late! :) The drinks are reasonably priced and they make them in pretty glasses... I know guys don't care about that.. but ladies like the pretty. The atmosphere is cool, kind of chrome, glass and stone. The views of the sunsets through those huge windows are absolutely spectacular. I love pretty much everything I've ever ordered here.. The lettuce wraps, cashew chicken, I usually get something the waiter suggests and it's always good. I like mixing your own dipping sauces... I like things spicy! And the prices are reasonable for a nice night out.

I travel for a living and have been to many restaurants. I've also tried many chain restaurants around North America as well as the world. I believe that this is one of the best PF Chang's around. The service has always been very good. The staff is always very attentive and usually good natured to boot! I just visited a PF Chang's in the Phoenix area and it was no where near the par this one in Denver. I realise that at times, it can get busy, as with any restaurant. They have always been attentive and we have enjoyed every time we've visited this restaurant. I believe it is a reflection of the great management and staff they have working at this restaurant. So, keep up the good work and great food!!

The layout of this location is broad with glass floor-to-ceiling on three of the four walls, so bring your shades. If you prefer less glass (as I do) and excellent alternative is the Southlands location. Speaking of locations, here's the rundown as I see it: # Park Meadows (this location): great views, boisterous decibels # Southlands: cozy, good for families and conversing # Downtown: intimate, best for conversing As with all PF Changs, here is my entry regarding menu: Favorite Appetizer: Chicken Lettuce Wraps (ask for extra iceberg) Favorite Dish: Singapore Street Noodles (yum, Roma tomatoes, and hooray for thin noodles!) Favorite Dessert: Chocolate Cake* (cake, icing, cake, icing, cake, icing, and a side packed with chocolate chips! plus raspberry sauce...hello!) *A great alternative to the LARGE slice is the mini shot glass of cake...same recipe...different portion.

PF Chang's is consistantly great. I actually eat the chicken lettuce wraps as a meal and they are awesome. I have had the sweet and sour chicken also and it was tasty. My absolute favorite are the tiny dessert cups. I love treating myself to a sweet and not having to eat a giant portion. The only drawback is this is a super crowded place, try to avoid dinnertime or be prepared for a wait.

I've been trying to forget our meal here, but thought I should warn others first. The best word to describe the meal is SALT. Way way too much. My wife sent her beef dish back, and even the soup was too salty. My dish was also inedible. We've both been to other PF Changs numerous times before, and have had good experiences. Not so here. We would never go back to this one again.

Great decor and outdoor seating area. I went for dinner and there was a romantic bonfire burning outside. I had wonton soup. Soup portion is very generous. Decent food, awesome atmosphere!

PF Changs food is ok. The portions have gotten smaller and saltier over the years. DON'T EVER GET TAKEOUT! By the time we got it home the food was horrible and we had to throw away most of it and email the restaurant. They never responded to us. The next time we went the service was bad and the food tasted like it sat on the heating table for 20 minutes. Probably won't go back unless a friend requests it.

I have seen three star reviews on this chain, but personally I like the food at PF Chang's. While it may not be "authentic" asain food, but it is very tasty. I have visited this particular one and another on Country Club Plaza in KC, MO. I like how attentive the waiters are and the personal service you get there. I always like to have them make my Chang Sauce, since I doubt I could get it to taste as good. My husband likes the honey shrimp and beef fried rice. I like the orange peel shrimp and the mandarin chicken. We both like the crispy wonton appetizer. We both enjoy the food and the atmosphere.

I love this place!! Mmmmmm. Great lettuce wraps and crab won tons. I haven't had anything here that I haven't liked. It's a bit noisy so be prepared to get your loud talk voice on.

I have been to PF Changs for my last time. Every time I have gone there the dishes are dirty. There are always food flecks on the plates, glasses and silverware. When we sat down there were greasy food clumps on several areas of the table. We had to ask the waiter to have the table cleaned. There were also greasy finger prints on the plates the waiter brought over for us to use and also on the drink glasses. The table next to ours actually complained about how dirty everything was. The manager came over and dismissed the blue flecks on the plates for crayons that went through the washer. We too had those blue flakes on our plates amd had to ask for clean utensils and plates. At one point we waiter told us they don't have any clean spoons - the small ones used to dish out the soy sauce/mustard mixture. The breaking point for me was when I watched the buser cleaning the table next to ours. He dropped the towelette he was using to wipe of the table on the floor. I watch to see what he did .... which was what I was hoping he wouldn't do ... but he did - he picked up the towel from the floor and just started cleaning the table off again. I love that the offer a gluten free menu and I like their food but I cannot get past the filthyness of the restaurant and for the price I would expect much better. The manager should be ashamed of these problems. They are not isolated and they should take seriously fixing whatever the problem is so that someone does not get serioulsy sick.

Pre fixe for two is a LOT of food. Banana Spring Rolls are the best dessert I've ever had! Who knew that coconut pineapple ice cream with bananas would be so good?

I am not a frequent PF Changs eater, but when I partake I enjoy. I went with a friend for lunch here the other day. We were greeted and seated right away. But then the servers must've been confused to who had our table in their section and we were ignored for about 5 solid minutes. After we got our server and drink orders in the meal improved. I finally tried the chicken lettuce wraps which PF lovers rave about. It was good. Then we split the crispy honey chicken. This is what I order every time I go to PFs. And because we thought they looked cute we each got a mini dessert that is served in a tall skinny shot glass. Mine was to sweet, but it was called s'mores. PF's is good 1-3 times a year for me.

Service made up for the quality of food. Went on a particularly busy night, Rockies vs San Diego for Playoffs. Rather than wait for a table, I sat at the bar. Wow, I think all the hot men in Lone Tree work at this PF Changs. The view was nice :) Bartender was very attentive, even though I didn't order alcohol. Lots of Iced Tea refills! Had the lemon pepper salmon. For some reason, the felt the need to cover the fish with pieces of actual lemon, including the peel. No, not a garnish, tossed in with the vegetables. That was quite disgusting. I picked all the lemons out and the dish was okay, but the salmon was waaaaaay overcooked, really dry, not very good. So, great service, just don't order anything too complicated, stick with the usual kung pao's and sweet and sour and you'll be good.

Me thinks that I may have eaten my last meal at this P.F. Chang's ... Two appetizers we ordered (Crispy Sting Beans and Egg Rolls) were devoid of flavor. My daughter loves Egg Rolls and didn't even finish hers. Mentioned to waiter that we didn't like the apps... He didn't say anything. My Entree came and it looked good. Fire grilled lemongrass prawns over noodles. Boy was I wrong. No hint of lemongrass to be found in the dish. Noodles were obviously old and very soggy. Dish was cooked in so much oil that it was pooled in the bottom of the bowl. Waiter asked how I liked my entree .. said I didn't. Do you think he brought the manager over? Nope... Do you think he offered to have something else made for me? Nope... Manager must have walked by my table five times while I was eating and didn't stop once. Obviously the lousy waiter didn't tell him we were unhappy. So eventually I asked to see him and while he was apologetic, he didn't strike me that he cared. So I'm done with P.F.Chang's.

A 3 about sums it up. However, I worked for a company that delivered food to restaurants. I will say this much, I would not eat at a local Chinese buffet. The food here isn't spectacular, but at least I trust that the kitchen is clean. I have not seen too many clean kitchens in the Mom and Pop Chinese restaurants.

Talk about overpriced and oily! Not going back no matter who invites me. I sent my dish back, as did my date. The waitress thought a free coke would make up for it...

My husband and I have been here three or four times. The first time was in fall 2007 (before our baby came along!) and they seated us in the most gorgeous booth looking straight out at the mountains during sunset. WOW we were really impressed and had a good time that visit and we still remember it as the best visit. Since then, all the visits have been very special "date night" type visits so we're inclined to enjoy ourselves even if the food isn't great-great. Which is really how I'd describe the food. We're not at all Asian food aficionados, so we don't get all huffy that this food is "inauthentic". It seems authentic enough for us. But by and large, it's not particularly tasty. The Lemon Chicken is really pretty forgettable. The Orange Chicken is supposedly spicy enough to merit a special indicator on the menu and that stunned me. It's a LITTLE bit spicy but no way does it need a "warning". My husband had the Moo Goo Gai Pan and he liked it but said it lacked a "certain something", like it needed a bit of a kick. We both went nuts for the Spicy Green Beans when we were there six months ago (and normally I loathe green beans) but then when we were there a few days ago, they were out of beans!!! I was so so so bummed, having looked forward to them since last summer. Not the end of the world but dag, I was bummed. We ordered very forgettable spring rolls in lieu of the green beans. What I do enjoy about this place probably the most is that it's got a really lovely dining room with really lovely mountain views from many of the seating areas. We've also had very pleasant and prompt service the times we've been. HUGE complaint that all by itself knocks a whole star off the grade: The ladies' bathroom always always always has a line. There are at most three stalls, maybe two. When we were there last Thursday, the dining room was about 25% full (mid-afternoon slow period) but both times I tried to use the restroom, there were 5 or 6 women in line. AB.SURD. I don't spose there's anything they can do about it but it is truly ridiculous and hugely inconvenient.

So PF Changs.....a chain, yes. Tasty and cheap? Yes. This place is in the mecca of suburbia and shopping malls, but once inside you forget all that for a bit. I find the sort of new-age Western interpreted Chinese art and architecture highly interesting (ah...bastardization!), and the lighting....well its nice, you know? What I like especially about this place is the fact that cheaper things to make, like vegetarian food, are actually cheaper on the menu. Not to mention the lettuce wraps...now that follows the Tao!!! (Talk about bastardization...ugh)

As everyone already knows, PF Chang's serves Americanized Chinese food. I actually like it just as much as I like authentic Chinese food because my palate is very open to different flavors and textures. My personal favorites here are: Mongolian Beef (not even close to the Mongolian beef served in Chinese restaurants; lightly breaded, very salty, but flavorful); Sea Bass, Dang Dang Noodles, Fried Rice. Overall, in my opinion, majority of dishes are prepared using the same base sauce so they taste almost the same. Also, I agree with other fellow yelpers regarding saltiness of the dishes - I think I bloat overnight after eating at PF Chang because their dishes have excessive amount of sodium.

Four stars for the view - this is one of the best places to dine al fresco. The patio is large with comfortable seating and large umbrellas. On less outdoor friendly days, the inside dining area also has excellent views of the front range. Ask for a table or booth close to the window - on a clear day you can see all the way to Long's Peak. Too bad the food and service don't match the view. On past occasions I've really enjoyed the food. Perhaps they've had major turnover in the kitchen as the food has definitely gone downhill. The chicken lettuce wraps appetizer, once a culinary treat, is now just ordinary - kind of a pile of brown goo (sound appetizing doesn't it). At least the iceberg lettuce was fresh. I ordered the Almond and Cashew Chicken lunch bowl primarily because it was less expensive ($8) than the regular entrees (starting at $11) and because it included soup. The chicken was good and there were a fair number of cashews and veggies (I couldn't recognize any almonds) however the garlic soy sauce was so bland that it ruined the entire dish. This bland mixture was served in a bowl atop a huge mound of overcooked, under-seasoned brown rice. More like mush than rice - it was pretty bad. Service? Well we were greeted right away and were seated promptly. Our server brought drinks right away and our courses paced properly. One problem - and this is major in my book - our server must have missed the day during "server training" where they talked about clearing plates before serving the next course. We had obviously finished off our appetizer when he brought out soup. Instead of clearing the plates, he just set our soup down where ever he could find an open spot. I asked him to take away our finished plates and he mumbled something about how he would come back after he'd delivered everything he had on his tray. What?! This happened again when we received our main course. We ended up piling dirty plates off to the side until he got around to coming back for them. This is inexcusable in my mind especially at a restaurant where you're typically spending $20 or more per person (much more if you have wine) for lunch. So if it's a warm sunny day, I'd recommend the patio at PF Changs - just don't assume that the food will be as satisfying as the view.

Returned for lunch recently for a business casual meeting and service on the deck was great, even the hot oils and sauces came out immediately, The lunches were very nicely prepared and found this service improvement, in my eyes, makes me look at returning as much as I can.

Not really sure how this place received 3 or even 4 stars. Just like I'm not really sure how my original review was deleted. WTF? So we arrived right after the lunch crowd which we thought would be a fantastic idea. Well, it wasn't. Sure we were sat promptly but guess what happened as soon as we sat? We waited. Yup. For about 5 minutes. WTF? I think that once you say WTF twice in a review that is obviously NOT a good sign. Our waiter finally arrived and took our drink orders. We ended up ordering water and tea (peach, I think). While in the middle of conversation with my family member, I noticed my silverware was dirty. I mentioned this to my family member and she noticed her silverware was dirty as well. Strike one in my book. Finally the waiter came over and took our order of Peking Dumplings, Beef with broccoli and some seafood dish my family member ordered. He also took away the disgusting silverware and brought fresh sets. I do have to say the tea was fabulously smooth and extremely tasty. Too bad he filled it up to the rim as we ended up having pools of water on the table! Ah! Once the Peking Dumplings (steamed) arrived, I was wondering why there were only 4 and why they tasted so bland and not so tasty? Again, WTF? A few short minutes later our entrees arrived along with dirty plates. Ok, ok I get it. The dishwasher sort of sucks or doesn't work as hard but COME ON. WTF?! Please serve some clean dishes once in a while! Word! That's 2!!! The beef with broccoli was smothered in some sort of brown super saucy substance and I felt like the meat was trying to swim away from me. Not cool. The seafood dish my family member ordered tasted like it was smothered in some super spicy tomato sauce. Not cool. Sigh, is this place falling off? Or, is this not a place to eat during the day? Does the dim lighting at night make it a pleasurable 3 to 4 star establishment because there are more people? I'm really confused. And, I've been here plenty of times before today. Our waiter was kind enough to offer us a 1,000 calorie plus dessert. The dessert was thought of about 3 weeks ago and is now being served in participating restaurants. Imagine 9 various shot glasses (well the dessert is served in a glass larger then a shot glass but smaller then a water class) filled of various cakes such as: cheesecake, chocolate, mousse, etc. VERY LOVELY! But, unfortunately I was stuff from the over saucy dishes. This places was definitely a 2 star this time around. Sorry to disappoint.

disgusting food the service completely was awful we ordered pot stickers, and a waiter never asked us if we wanted pork or chicken or vegetable potstickers he just took the order and left. the restaurant was completely no easy I couldn't even hear the people that were sitting in front of me at my table. with our food arrived it was cold and mushy. later that night 3 of us got sick on that food that we ate at this restaurant. I would not recommend this restaurant for anyone.

I've always liked their food. Gourmet family style asian. Yummy Long Islands. Good date place, neat atmosphere... nice decor. Reservation advised. I'd avoid their Aurora location. This place is usually pretty busy no matter which one you go to. Suggest making reservations. Service here could be better, but I go back anyways.

I have eaten at this PF Chang's 3 or 4 times, including last night. I have found the food to be mediocre at best and overly salty on past visits and would not have gone again but for receiving a gift card. I'm not sure I will be back. I really am at a loss as to why this restaurant is popular. We called in last night, arrived around 30 minutes later, and still waited another 30 minutes to be seated. This was on the late side too. This particular PF Chang's is very noisy to outright loud. The hot sour soup was OK, but I've had a lot better. The veggie lettuce wrap appetizer was not good; very salty and unappealing. My entre, the Ginger Chicken, was OK. My wife's entre, Shrimp Cantonese, was bland and tasteless. Disappointing.

This place is always packed and the service is so so. I only really like the crispy chicken and some of the appetizers. Mixing up your own dipping sauce is cool. Lunch prices are cheaper than dinner but I just go to Pei Wei now which serves many of the same dishes as here but at lunch prices.

Okay, I'm not a fan of the fusion and less than authentic Westernized Chinese food. But people at work wanted to eat here and I was pleasantly surprised. The food was tasty and the portions are pretty good. The price was not bad and service was good. I really liked the Beef A La Sichuan. My only complaint was the very dark place and it was challenging to read the menu by candlelight.

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

Dined at P.F. Chang's on Tuesday August 11th in the bar area. Very attentive service - couldn't ask for more friendly folks tending the bar. Enjoyed the "Happy Hour" menu - including Tuna TarTar, pan seared pot stickers and calamari. The food was equally impressive and the views from the glass walls made for a wonderful dining experience. While there, we all watched a small tornado form and then go back up into the wall cloud - which was extremely interesting from the restaurant vantage point on a high hill looking West. The manager was visible and was walking around speaking with the various customers and seemed very sincere. During the 20 minutes or so that we were all watching the funnel cloud, he did make a point of switching the channel to a local channel which was covering the weather and assign the bartender to "keep an eye" on the weather warnings for him. Also mentioning that if necessary he may need help getting customers and employees to safety, in case the tornado continued to develop and head towards the restaurant. Anyway - this place is well ran, very clean (I watched the bar tenders cleaning the beer fridge and there wasn't much build up), great fresh food, and great employees - interested in team work. I'll be back in a few months, when I return to town.

Maybe I just ordered the wrong food but it just wasn't very tasty. I had curry vegetables and tofu. I like each one separately but together just did not hit the spot. My husband and dad thought theirs was ok. The sushi we ordered was tasty. I believe it was a scallop roll. The ginger was very good. I will say the place was buzzing. There were high school kids there before homecoming. That was nice and they were well behaved. Lots of birthday dinners and it was Friday night. I had a reservation and we had to wait maybe 10 extra minutes Our server was delightful. Friendly and she kept her eyes on our drinks. Well I just had water. Yes boring but I had wine earlier I haven't been in awhile and it will be awhile before I go back. Chinese is not my favorite food so if I eat it I need to love what I ordered
(3)M. Scott O.
Rejoice! If you are looking for boring Chinese-ish entrees with sugary flavorless syrup coatings you have found your Mecca. Looking to pay about twice what those dishes should cost? Well, then has P.F. Chang's got a deal for you! I stopped in for lunch and had their "signature" spicy chili chicken entree and an order of 4 pork pot stickers - all for the svelte price of $30. The pot stickers were bland and uninspiring. The entree was far from spicy, tasting more like Chicken McNuggets in a slightly better sweet & sour sauce than the one found under the Golden Arches. At least it had a decent amount of chicken in it. Congratulations to P.F. Chang's for truly nailing the mediocre chain restaurant experience. First time. Last time.
(1)Ivy M.
Yummy! Such a beautiful establishment, love the large windows and exposed beams! Its been over 5 years since I've been in a pfChangs, yet they still have those delicious crisp chicken lettuce wraps and A+ wontons. I was missing the Lamb, if I remember it used to come out on a bed of cilantro, and the double pan fried noodles. Maybe they were under another name? But the seemingly 'boring' broccoli beef, had tender cuts of beef that made it easily my fave of the night.
(4)Will J.
Very good and consistent as it normally is. Reasonable happy hour prices. We ordered pork dumplings, lettuce wraps (the best), crispy green beans (2nd best), and the chicken satay (if you dont like curry, dont order this). We also order the sangria which was $5 and had some fruit in it... also good.

One of my favorite establishments in the Park Meadows area, because the dine-in experience is a must. The views, breathtaking. The atmosphere, pleasant and warm. The food, always a win in my book. Whether we take a seat at the bar for some drinks and apps, or a booth in the dining room, I am always satisfied with the service. A few weeks ago, I ordered a vodka sprite with a lemon, choosing Kettle One vodka. The bartender was charming as he made our drinks, and stepped aside to cut some fresh lemons. I continued to chat with my friend and didn't watch him actually make the drinks. He set them down, asked if we were ready to order our food, and then promptly realized he had used the wrong vodka in my drink! I told him not to fret or worry, that I would be ordering a second drink later and would fix it then. He insisted that he remake the drink, admitting to his mistake. I was beyond impressed and was happy to give him the large tip he deserved. I only wish I had gotten his name! It's because of service like that, something so simple, that I continue to revisit P.F. Chang's at Park Meadows.
(5)Donve K.
I love P F Changs! Have been a fan for years! The quality of the food varies from one store to another. The best food is at the one in Scottsdale AZ, but, Park Meadows does a pretty good job of serving consistently good food.

Came to town late and looking for a place to have good Chinese food. Their crab fried rice( new menu item) is one of the best I ever had. This is one restaurant open late and that is one reason for me to come here their closing time in week days are 10pm! Bar tender was really nice and friendly and took care of my order without any trouble. Place is big and beautiful atmosphere would definitely stop here again.
(5)Joanie V.
Went out tonight and had lemongrass chicken salad, pork dumpling appetizers, edamame, and some combination fried rice. There were wo people in our party, our waiter was David. The place was packed, but the service was good and David was extremely friendly and made our experience wonderful. He was extremely busy but didn't seem bothered in the least which kept us relaxed and the sunset was beautiful on the patio.
(5)Kay C.
One of my favorite restaurants, however the service we received here tonight just...well..sucked. I went here to grab a bite to eat with a co worker after work and upon arriving at the entrance we were greeted promptly at the door by the host and immediately given a table. That was the best part about tonight other than the food. The waitress we had, Colby, left much to be desired of how a true waitress should be. From the start she wasn't very friendly. We ordered our food with no extra emphasis from her on any specials or recommendations. She brought out our drinks (diet coke and strawberry cucumber limeade) with no issue but failed to keep them replenished. Another waiter actually came by to ask if I wanted a refill. I watched our waitress become friendly with the guy who was eating alone near our table and after awhile both my co worker and I noticed that the restaurant had a shift. The side we were sitting on had all the ethnic groups while the rest of the restaurant was vastly predominantly white. When we asked for the tab Colby brought it and gathered our plates- that still had food on them- not once offering if we wanted her to wrap up the remaining portions we hadn't eaten- something I'm accustomed them to being asked at every other PF Changs I've visited. She promptly took our card for the payment though without saying a word and brought back the receipt for signature dropping off two cookies without a word as well. Upon leaving and standing up it was confirmed- all along the east side were nothing but whites and even as we were gathering our stuff to go they brought another ethnic family to the same area we were in while there were many other places available to sit. In our area there were five total ethnic families including the two of us. I've always heard Colorado was a racist state and visiting this restaurant almost confirms to me there may be truth to the statement. Either way the food was ok, rice was a bit hard for my taste. We ordered sesame chicken and Mongolian beef. Even with the food being ok I don't recommend visiting here if you want great service and you're ethnic.
(2)Rebecca R.
We went here last weekend and the wait time was over an hour! Once we got in, I found the waiters and waitresses to be only ok. During the course of our dinner, we ended having 3 different waiters/waitresses serving us. So I wasn't sure who to leave the tip for. The food tasted good but, my friend ended up getting sick afterwards. I'm not sure if I'll go back.
(2)Christina E.
I don't care if it's a chain, I love P.F. Chang's. This one has the added bonus of a wonderful patio and glorious view, but has the downside of being in the Park Meadows parking lot. Why is that a downside? Because now that it's the Christmas shopping season I may crave some of their tasty lettuce wraps, but I'm not even going to consider it! Of course if you already have to fight the crowds then this is a much better place to eat than most spots in the mall. I usually come here to fill up on tasty apps, like those lettuce wraps, dumplings and flaming red wontons - yum! Recently I've been in the mood for something new and just discovered a love for their Ginger Chicken with Broccoli. Yummy! They also make a pretty mean cocktail if you're so inclined, which I often am. Portions can be big, but what's better than leftover Chinese food, right?
(4)Kelly B.
A friend and I stopped by for happy hour. We like the environment of the bar. But unfortunately everything else is lacking. We ordered the spicy tuna roll . And it looks like something I could make. The pieces were cut unevenly, some pieces were twice as large as others. And only one side was sauced. Have some pride in what you're making. Happy hour is supposed to be somewhat of a deal. 7 dollars for a spicy tuna roll, I could get a better one at almost any sushi restaurant for that. (Photo evidence supplied) We also tried their pork dumplings. I'm not sure what differentiates pot stickers from pork dumplings but they pretty much seemed like pot stickers to me. Not dumplings. The final annoying thing was that we had all three bartenders helping us which on one hand might be considered good as opposed to not being able to get a bartender's attention. But after placing a drink order with one and being interrupted repeatedly by being asked if we would like another by all bartenders it felt a little Three Stooges.

Shrimp in lobster sauce was delicious. As was the Mongolian beef. The ahi tuna salad, All fantastic

Always a solid experience. Good food and service you can always count on when you have a craving and don't want to try your luck with a new place.
(3)Amanda P.
The place was very busy even at 8 pm on a Saturday evening. The service was very good, but the food was definitely average. The sauce for the lettuce wraps was extremely salty and we had to request new lettuce because the original plate had brown lettuce on it. The gluten free spicy chicken was very good. The chicken Pad Thai was pretty bad. There was what looked to be grill scrapings in it and the tofu was not good at all. Nice location and building but the food quality really brings down the rating.

Beyond disappointed with the quality of server education at this location. I have been coming to PF Changs for quite some time b/c I have Celiac's and they are normally very on top of what "Gluten Free" is with menus, labeled plates and ramekins and even GF station in the kitchen and a dedicated GF fryer. We ordered 3 different items off of the gluten free menu. The server seemed a little confused from the get go. Then the server came back and mentioned that there is a little bit of soy sauce used in the gluten free option. Which baffled me why they couldn't use Tamari? Regardless I told him I had Celiac's and to just steam the dish instead. My partners dish ended up have fried pieces of meat in it. We checked to make sure they were gluten free and we were assured fried meat was. We have never seen a gluten free dish come out with batter fried meat at PF Changs before. Within 1 hour of eating we were both beyond sick. Typically when I get glutened it makes me sick for over 2 weeks. We will not be back to this location again. Post gluten poisoning follow up from PF Changs has also been an absolute nightmare. I have tweeted, messaged on social media, direct messaged, yelped and called this location. I have received 2 tweets from PF Changs claiming they were sorry in a tweet and asked to email them. I emailed them and did not get a response. I then tweeted again and received a second tweet that I would be followed up with. Still no response. They have a new marketing push for their #GlutenFree community. Yet this location I have no trust for. I was sick for weeks after eating there.

My favorite PF Chang's!:) The views of the Rockies is amazing. Ashley Murley took exceptional care of our party. The food and the service was great. I had the Chilean Sea Bass on Spinach and the Tuna Tartar appetizer.

I usually am not comfortable eating at Asian restaurants because i have a tree nut allergy, and most Asian restaurants have a fair amount of tree nuts. I really appreciate the effort this establishment makes twords my allergy. I always feel comfortable and confident when i get my meal that it will be okay. I highly recommend if you have any sort of allergy or dietary restrictions, or if your just picky. The good is amazing too. I personally love the lettuce wraps and honey shrimp. Yum!
(5)Sumi A.
I don't know this place has an average 3 star rating, the food is always great and they are very accommodating especially when it comes to picky eaters like me. I love the view, and the little candles and dim light always gives it a nice romantic vibe, without having to pay outrageous prices.
(4)Michael H.
We have eaten here several times, most recently today at lunch. Every time we have been here, the place is packed with hungry customers. We always have lower expectations of chains, but I have to say this one is doing something right. The bomb for us was the Dynamite Shrimp appetizer, appropriately named, absolutely wonderful. Chicken lettuce wrap and lemongrass chicken were decent but not fabulous. I did not taste much lemongrass in the chicken, although the chicken pieces were moist, tender, fresh, and everything in the salad was fresh. Lemonade was a disappointment in that it seemed to be from a fountain and for $3 rather a ripoff. Overall: 3.5 stars.

I am really torn about this P.F. Changs. On the one hand it has beautiful views and a tempting ambiance but on the other service and food can vary wildly. I love their sweet and sour soup...it just has the best flavor despite being less authentic than most. The lettuce wraps are fresh and always fun with the dipping sauce blended to your exact specifications. The prices are steep and the servers can be fickle. I would consider Purple Ginger, Indochine or ChoLon if you are going to pay these prices. ****I confess that I remain tainted by one unfortunate experience with a server that makes me leery of the place. He refilled my teens sodas and at the end of the meal there was almost $20 in soda refill charges....stinker. I would have declined their refills for them had I known he was charging $3.00 a pop. (pun intended :-))

We have always loved PF Chang's but this location is now a "test kitchen". This means many of our old favorites are no longer on the menu and lots of new things showing up that are just ok or a "work in progress". The management runs around the restaurant soliciting feedback from diners which is just plain annoying when you are trying to enjoy conversation with friends. If you were a fan of the delicious Ahi Crisps, they now serve a pile of Ahi with chips that you are supposed to use to scoop up the fish. It is a mess to eat and impossible to share but no doubt reduced their food cost. I am sure they won't bring back the old menu items but we are not interested in dining in their test kitchen. Disappointing. It was a trusty go-to place for us.
(2)Chuck S.
Usually over priced and over loud this place does have very good food. Just had lunch there today and the meal was reasonably priced and portioned. I ordered the egg drop soup (avoid their hot & sour soup, more on that later) and the crispy honey shrimp (my favorite)! It was just the right portion sizes and I escaped for under $13. That's a somewhat pricey lunch but, what do you expect, it's P.F. Chang's at Park Meadows! For my biggest beef with P.F. Chang's. Would you please get a new recipe for your Hot & Sour Soup? It's one of my favorite things about Chinese food, I use it as a gauge of the restaurant, and your hot & sour soup is awful. It just doesn't taste right. I know very few people that like the hot & sour soup here.
(3)Karen A.
I'm sad to say the tuna roll was a total disappointment. Firm rice and a Bland Center of tuna left me bewildered how this could go so wrong. I finally unrolled the rice only to find a slimy mush. Did they expect me to bury this in soy sauce to give it flavor? Really??? The kitchen is cutting corners for lack of available quality ingredients. This was obviously the old bits and pieces of their other offerings. Time to shape up and have the management concentrate on quality control. The iced green tea was nice though...

The first thing you should know is that I go here a lot. Take the number you think is "a lot" and multiply it by 6. That's how much I go. And I can honestly say that I have not one complaint. The service is great, all of the waiters and waitresses I have ever had have been friendly and on top of things. The food is great. I highly recommend the chicken lettuce wraps. They are a must. The honey chicken and Chang's spicy chicken are also on my list of favorites, along with the beef fried rice. Word of advice - split a couple of entrees with your group so that you get to try a bit of everything. And I know you will be looking at the dessert menu and thinking "banana spring rolls?" Get them. They are simply divine.
(5)Phyllis P.
I haven't been to PF Chang's in a few years, but have always enjoyed their food and atmosphere. My husband, son and I had dinner there last Saturday evening. We had a reservation and didn't have to wait too long for our table to be ready, even though the place was packed. We had an excellent server and really enjoyed our meals. We look forward to coming back again!
(4)Mr. Peel's F.
PF Chang's Chicken I think PF Chang's chicken is good. It is in the PF Chang's restaurant. You order in the front of the building. PF Chang's chicken is good. It taste like yummy delicious orange chicken. It sounds like steaming good chicken. The last reason is it is a little slimy. I think PF Chang's chicken is great. It is very good because of how it taste,smells,and feels. You should try this chicken.

This place continues to provide hit and miss service. I made dinner reservations for 6 people at 5:30 on a Monday evening to celebrate my mother's birthday. Our waiter was not good. He could not have been less interested in taking care of our table. When he arrived at our table we asked if it was still Happy Hour. His response "If it's still before 6:00." I advised him that it was and then asked what their Happy Hour deals were. He had no idea and had to run off to go find a Happy Hour menu. Upon his return we ordered 3 glasses of wine, 1 beer, and 2 kid's drinks. 20 MINUTES LATER - I had to ask if they were ever going to arrive to our table. Our Happy Hour food arrived well before our drinks. For appetizers we ordered crab wontons and two orders of lettuce wraps - all were good. Entrees were fine as well. Really, we have never had an issue with the food. I did let our server know we were celebrating a birthday but that didn't seem to matter to him. We then ordered 4 desserts to share between the 6 of us. He took that order and within a minute, arrived with our check which included the desserts. Really? We aren't even done eating and haven't received our desserts yet and you are bringing us the check?! Was disappointed and sad that my mother had to celebrate her birthday at a restaurant that was so uninterested in making this a nice evening for her. Thinking this may have been our last visit.
(2)Kristina K.
I am not a fan of chain i was advised to try this one and that it's really good! No thanks I will pass next time.
(2)Wes T.
This PF Chang is near the mall, which makes it a fancy alternative to a Panda Express food court egg roll. The menu is extensive, and generally the food is good. I like the lettuce wraps, myself. And don't forget the novel little sauces they provide you here. You can mix and match to make the right flavor combo, so there's that. Staff has been good to me here. There's an outdoor patio area which is large and equipped with heat lamps. All around, not bad.
(3)Carolyn H.
So, I typically like PF Changs, it's a fairly good chain restaurant, and you always know what to expect when you order. On this particular visit, the service was lacking, but the food was exactly what you would expect from a Changs. We went at 11pm (they close at midnight on the weekends) and they had already tossed the brown rice for the night (an hour before closing?) and there was really no apology for it, our server just brought white rice and said that's all they had to offer. Then when we asked for to go containers and a side of white rice to go, our server returned to said they had already tossed it out as well now. Again, no apology for it, just stated it and packed up our food.
(2)Dan F.
Not Clean Chop sticks and knife had food on them. Takes away from the dining experience:-(
(2)Laurie W.
Of the three P.F. Changs I go to, this is my least favorite. The other day during lunch, my Mongolian beef was under-seasoned. The sauce had lumps of sugar, yes, straight sugar, in it. It must not have been mixed properly. The egg drop soup was bland, too. I'll stick to the location at Southlands.
(2)Keila M.
This is the best PF Chang's I've ever been to... The szechuan bean appetizer was 3 times bigger than any other PF Chang's I've ever been to. They have a huge patio and dining area as well. Also, this place is almost fancier than any other one I've ever been to... not sure why. Great staff!
(5)Samantha E.
I've been to the PF Chang's downtown, in Belmar, and in Park Meadows, and I think this is my favorite of the three. We went on a Saturday night around 5:30 PM, and the line was all ready 45 minutes. We got on the list and snagged a little bit of space at the bar while we waited. Luckily, happy hour was still on, so we got drinks and some dumplings to snack on while we waited. My mai tai was as good as ever, and the lemongrass chicken dumplings were delicious. When we were eventually seated, our server was friendly and the food was up to normal PF Chang's standard. The three of us split Chang's spicy chicken, Mongolian beef, and wok-seared beef. Wok-seared beef was probably my favorite. Even though they were crowded, we got everything quickly and our server was helpful; plus, we saw both managers chipping in with clearing tables and serving lettuce wraps, which was impressive. What separates this location from the others is the wall of windows and the incredible view. In my experience, PF Chang's tends to be kind of dark, so it was great to have it be bright and look at the mountains while we enjoyed happy hour. I'm guessing that patio is pretty awesome in the summer, too. No, it's not authentic, but it's classy, consisent and delicious. I'm a fan of this PF Chang's location.
(4)Elle M.
First of all, what a view from the deck!! Just too bad for us that a huge thunder down pour started right before we were about to walk in. We ended up sitting at the bar since all the deck people moved indoors but what a delightful experience we had. The staff was 100% on top of each and every customer, there were no waits or lack of service, ever. That said, the food is just as yummy as always. I love the fact that you can also get Gluten Free options on so many dishes. Both my husband and I are going to go back although this location is further away from us just so we can sit on that deck and enjoy the rockies.
(4)Jessica J.
Let me qualify my 3 star review to say, PF Changs is really a 3.5 star place, but compared to other PF Changs it earns a bit more. Clear as mud? OK ;) Here is the thing, my hubby and I go here for the gluten free menu. It is their main selling point for us. However, on a recent lunch trip I have to say I way more impressed with the overall feel and service at this location over others. Our waitress seemed genuinely helpful with menu items, suggest things and was prompt about bringing refills and food. This seems amazing compared to other PFC's. Plus, this one has a huge open patio with mountain views and a large bar in the center. It is light and bright. The place is great for parties large or small. Although it really fills up for lunch! Thumbs up from me!
(3)Sonya M.
I hadn't been to P.F. Chang in years before visiting recently during a trip to Denver but I'll definitely be visiting more after the positive experience I had. The service was great, atmosphere/decor was cozy & the food was fantastic. I ordered the mandarin chicken w/the egg rolls as an appetizer. I didn't care for the egg rolls but I ate them because I paid for them. They had a bitter taste to them & didn't have a hint of the sweetness I expected. The mandarin chicken more than made up for it though. It was delicious... the perfect blend of sweet & spicy. The chicken & veggies were cooked to perfection too. I can't wait to visit P.F. Chang again soon.
(4)Mike M.
This is a shout out to the waitress who waited on the group of high school students last Saturday night before their Winter formal. I've dined at Changs off and on for many years and love the food so we recommended it to our daughter as an eating place for her and her friends prior to the dance. Let me preface this by saying that these kids are polite, always say "please" and "thank you" and know how to act in a nice restaurant. They also know how to tip. That being said, the condescending, rude waitress who waited on them and treated them like a bunch of second class citizen's has convinced me that I will never return to this restaurant. You have no right to talk down to these kids, mock them when they ask questions about the menu or basically treat them like they are not welcome and don't belong there. The feedback we received from these kids is appalling and I hope it was worth it because you also have a large group of parents who will never dine at your restaurant again.
(1)Nicole W.
Unfortunately the suburban attitude at the mall franchise is less than fun. The staff is not friendly, not accommodating, and less than helpful. I love the food and we were here due to being in the area for a conference, but i would definitely drive downtown as opposed to enjoying a meal here. I used to live in the area, and visited this location on multiple occasions, and each time the staff acted as if they were being put-upon to serve us. The wait is usually obscene, so call ahead if you are forced to go here.
(2)Tony K.
I'd put 2.5 if I could. ordered a Mai Tai. Just like the KC one they didn't bother to mix it well. Second time this weekend someone screwed up an appetizer order. I'm guessing taking a drink order and an appetizer is too much... They were nice enough to take it off our order. Since we got it after the main course. Friend took it home. Ordered Mongolian scallops. It's cool that although its not on the menu they'll let you substitute scallops for chicken/beef. It was good, but they were a little overcooked I believe. Banana Spring rolls were the highlight. coconut-pineapple ice cream is great.
(3)Jon D.
Only can speak for take out but it was greasy and cold. We didn't have very far to travel either. Never been in the bistro its self.
(2)Jason J.
This is my favorite PF Chang's I've been to by far. They have an awesome patio with a great view and some shade. They have good gluten free options and it's always super yummy. The only negative is that going here seems super expensive for lunch, but hey, you're at Park Meadows anyway...
(5)Nik B.
Parker is home to 1000x of chain restaurants, but PF Chang's is actually putting out some dishes with finess. I ordered the Wok Seared Lamb, which, mind you, it's pretty rare to see lamb on the menu of a pan-Asian restaurant. It comes nicely seasoned on a bed of lettuce, with a side of ride. It was perfectly cooked and the edges of the pieces of lamb had a good crisp to them. My dinner-date ordered the Ma Pa Tofu which I've had at authentic chinese restaurants, but I actually really liked PF Chang's as well. Instead of being a bunch of soft tofu mixed into a bunch of hot sauce, PF Chang's was cubed and fried, served with steam broccoli and the sauce on the side. The tofu was perfectly crispy on the outside and smooth and silken on the inside. It was definitely delicious. PF Chang's wouldn't be my first choice for Asian, but it beats a lot of the greasier chains the Park Meadows area.
(3)Lisa A.
Service terrible...Food even worse and high priced. I have ate at mom and pop take out that had better food then this. Not worth stopping for!
(1)Michelle J.
Best pf changs location ive ever been to. We end up paying 55-60 as a couple for 2'soups 1appetizer 2 entrees 2 drinks 2 mini deserts 2 drinks and tip. Food never disappoints. Very good service from waiter. And they even gave us a military discount!
(5)Mattias L.
The only "asian" restaurant I know of that serves Norwegian Salmon and plays Dire Straights over the speakers. The food is not bad, but definitely not authentic. It caters perfectly to the Park Meadows crowd. I have had the mongolian beef which is pretty good, and a bunch of other things that all blend together because they've been so bland.
(3)Ann N.
The Manager sucks! There were 10 people in line waiting to pick up their take out. Ordered online and said I could pickup at 7 pm. People were waiting for 40 minutes for their food! Manager was standing around like everything was fine instead of helping customers. The service here is atrocious! Will never eat here again.

Always love PF! I'm not a big fan of any mixed drinks but the PFX is so good!

We tried to go on Saturday, arriving before 5pm. There was already an hour wait so we left and came back at 4pm on Monday. We were seated and greeted promptly. After that things began to go downhill. I have to eat gluten free and give props to PFC for having a fair GF menu. I asked for the spiciest thing on the menu, the GF Chang's spicy chicken. It was not spicy and tasted like sweet and sour chicken without the sourt but with extra sweet. I poured all the soy sauce and chili hot (not!) oil to try to kill the cloyingly sweet taste but nothing helped. My wife got the mu shu pork which they advertise as being wrapped right at your table. That must be a big thing to them but apparently not big enough to avoid the waiter turning his back to the table and you don't see anything but his ass. The table next to us got a nice show though. At least it didn't taste very good. The waiter was...efficient. Though they weren't terribly busy, he did everything as fast as possible. This is from their website: "to celebrate the tradition of chinese new year, p.f. chang's will give each guest who dines with us...a red envelope that contains a gift of good fortune." There were clearly two of us but we only got one card. I wasn't positive about the website wording or I would have called him on it. Eating there isn't something I want to do again but we still have $30 worth or gift cards!
(2)Correy H.
The food at this location is always great and the lunch staff service is friendly, but every time I visit on a weekend evening the wait staff seems rushed and insincere.
(3)Brig T.
The nite here started off slow. Literally. We were quoted a 25-30 minute wait and ended up waiting almost an hour, while parties of only 1 less than us got seated almost immediately. Fast forward to dinner - the server was awesome, the food was great, and we even got a free desert without asking. They turned what would have been a bad nite/review into a positive one. Kudos!
(4)Chris M.
This is a GREAT date spot! The bar area is very fun and the bartenders are quite attentive to you when your blind date is late! :) The drinks are reasonably priced and they make them in pretty glasses... I know guys don't care about that.. but ladies like the pretty. The atmosphere is cool, kind of chrome, glass and stone. The views of the sunsets through those huge windows are absolutely spectacular. I love pretty much everything I've ever ordered here.. The lettuce wraps, cashew chicken, I usually get something the waiter suggests and it's always good. I like mixing your own dipping sauces... I like things spicy! And the prices are reasonable for a nice night out.
(4)Lisa T.
I travel for a living and have been to many restaurants. I've also tried many chain restaurants around North America as well as the world. I believe that this is one of the best PF Chang's around. The service has always been very good. The staff is always very attentive and usually good natured to boot! I just visited a PF Chang's in the Phoenix area and it was no where near the par this one in Denver. I realise that at times, it can get busy, as with any restaurant. They have always been attentive and we have enjoyed every time we've visited this restaurant. I believe it is a reflection of the great management and staff they have working at this restaurant. So, keep up the good work and great food!!
(5)Amber P.
The layout of this location is broad with glass floor-to-ceiling on three of the four walls, so bring your shades. If you prefer less glass (as I do) and excellent alternative is the Southlands location. Speaking of locations, here's the rundown as I see it: # Park Meadows (this location): great views, boisterous decibels # Southlands: cozy, good for families and conversing # Downtown: intimate, best for conversing As with all PF Changs, here is my entry regarding menu: Favorite Appetizer: Chicken Lettuce Wraps (ask for extra iceberg) Favorite Dish: Singapore Street Noodles (yum, Roma tomatoes, and hooray for thin noodles!) Favorite Dessert: Chocolate Cake* (cake, icing, cake, icing, cake, icing, and a side packed with chocolate chips! plus raspberry sauce...hello!) *A great alternative to the LARGE slice is the mini shot glass of cake...same recipe...different portion.
(3)Savanna G.
PF Chang's is consistantly great. I actually eat the chicken lettuce wraps as a meal and they are awesome. I have had the sweet and sour chicken also and it was tasty. My absolute favorite are the tiny dessert cups. I love treating myself to a sweet and not having to eat a giant portion. The only drawback is this is a super crowded place, try to avoid dinnertime or be prepared for a wait.
(4)Steven G.
I've been trying to forget our meal here, but thought I should warn others first. The best word to describe the meal is SALT. Way way too much. My wife sent her beef dish back, and even the soup was too salty. My dish was also inedible. We've both been to other PF Changs numerous times before, and have had good experiences. Not so here. We would never go back to this one again.
(1)victoria j.
Great decor and outdoor seating area. I went for dinner and there was a romantic bonfire burning outside. I had wonton soup. Soup portion is very generous. Decent food, awesome atmosphere!
(4)i n.
PF Changs food is ok. The portions have gotten smaller and saltier over the years. DON'T EVER GET TAKEOUT! By the time we got it home the food was horrible and we had to throw away most of it and email the restaurant. They never responded to us. The next time we went the service was bad and the food tasted like it sat on the heating table for 20 minutes. Probably won't go back unless a friend requests it.
(2)Andrea B.
I have seen three star reviews on this chain, but personally I like the food at PF Chang's. While it may not be "authentic" asain food, but it is very tasty. I have visited this particular one and another on Country Club Plaza in KC, MO. I like how attentive the waiters are and the personal service you get there. I always like to have them make my Chang Sauce, since I doubt I could get it to taste as good. My husband likes the honey shrimp and beef fried rice. I like the orange peel shrimp and the mandarin chicken. We both like the crispy wonton appetizer. We both enjoy the food and the atmosphere.
(5)Seth J.
I love this place!! Mmmmmm. Great lettuce wraps and crab won tons. I haven't had anything here that I haven't liked. It's a bit noisy so be prepared to get your loud talk voice on.
(4)Michelle P.
I have been to PF Changs for my last time. Every time I have gone there the dishes are dirty. There are always food flecks on the plates, glasses and silverware. When we sat down there were greasy food clumps on several areas of the table. We had to ask the waiter to have the table cleaned. There were also greasy finger prints on the plates the waiter brought over for us to use and also on the drink glasses. The table next to ours actually complained about how dirty everything was. The manager came over and dismissed the blue flecks on the plates for crayons that went through the washer. We too had those blue flakes on our plates amd had to ask for clean utensils and plates. At one point we waiter told us they don't have any clean spoons - the small ones used to dish out the soy sauce/mustard mixture. The breaking point for me was when I watched the buser cleaning the table next to ours. He dropped the towelette he was using to wipe of the table on the floor. I watch to see what he did .... which was what I was hoping he wouldn't do ... but he did - he picked up the towel from the floor and just started cleaning the table off again. I love that the offer a gluten free menu and I like their food but I cannot get past the filthyness of the restaurant and for the price I would expect much better. The manager should be ashamed of these problems. They are not isolated and they should take seriously fixing whatever the problem is so that someone does not get serioulsy sick.
(1)Tony G.
Pre fixe for two is a LOT of food. Banana Spring Rolls are the best dessert I've ever had! Who knew that coconut pineapple ice cream with bananas would be so good?
(4)John O.
I love the spring rolls and the wonton soup! Put Sirachi sauce in it
(5)Meredith G.
I am not a frequent PF Changs eater, but when I partake I enjoy. I went with a friend for lunch here the other day. We were greeted and seated right away. But then the servers must've been confused to who had our table in their section and we were ignored for about 5 solid minutes. After we got our server and drink orders in the meal improved. I finally tried the chicken lettuce wraps which PF lovers rave about. It was good. Then we split the crispy honey chicken. This is what I order every time I go to PFs. And because we thought they looked cute we each got a mini dessert that is served in a tall skinny shot glass. Mine was to sweet, but it was called s'mores. PF's is good 1-3 times a year for me.
(3)Mo C.
Service made up for the quality of food. Went on a particularly busy night, Rockies vs San Diego for Playoffs. Rather than wait for a table, I sat at the bar. Wow, I think all the hot men in Lone Tree work at this PF Changs. The view was nice :) Bartender was very attentive, even though I didn't order alcohol. Lots of Iced Tea refills! Had the lemon pepper salmon. For some reason, the felt the need to cover the fish with pieces of actual lemon, including the peel. No, not a garnish, tossed in with the vegetables. That was quite disgusting. I picked all the lemons out and the dish was okay, but the salmon was waaaaaay overcooked, really dry, not very good. So, great service, just don't order anything too complicated, stick with the usual kung pao's and sweet and sour and you'll be good.
(4)Doug B.
Me thinks that I may have eaten my last meal at this P.F. Chang's ... Two appetizers we ordered (Crispy Sting Beans and Egg Rolls) were devoid of flavor. My daughter loves Egg Rolls and didn't even finish hers. Mentioned to waiter that we didn't like the apps... He didn't say anything. My Entree came and it looked good. Fire grilled lemongrass prawns over noodles. Boy was I wrong. No hint of lemongrass to be found in the dish. Noodles were obviously old and very soggy. Dish was cooked in so much oil that it was pooled in the bottom of the bowl. Waiter asked how I liked my entree .. said I didn't. Do you think he brought the manager over? Nope... Do you think he offered to have something else made for me? Nope... Manager must have walked by my table five times while I was eating and didn't stop once. Obviously the lousy waiter didn't tell him we were unhappy. So eventually I asked to see him and while he was apologetic, he didn't strike me that he cared. So I'm done with P.F.Chang's.
(2)Daniel B.
A 3 about sums it up. However, I worked for a company that delivered food to restaurants. I will say this much, I would not eat at a local Chinese buffet. The food here isn't spectacular, but at least I trust that the kitchen is clean. I have not seen too many clean kitchens in the Mom and Pop Chinese restaurants.
(3)Dana M.
Talk about overpriced and oily! Not going back no matter who invites me. I sent my dish back, as did my date. The waitress thought a free coke would make up for it...
(1)Josh S.
Food was AWESOME as usual, but man is it noisy! I much prefer the PF Changs in Southlands -- but I'm sure many people like the noise, so if you do, go for it!
(3)EM G.
My husband and I have been here three or four times. The first time was in fall 2007 (before our baby came along!) and they seated us in the most gorgeous booth looking straight out at the mountains during sunset. WOW we were really impressed and had a good time that visit and we still remember it as the best visit. Since then, all the visits have been very special "date night" type visits so we're inclined to enjoy ourselves even if the food isn't great-great. Which is really how I'd describe the food. We're not at all Asian food aficionados, so we don't get all huffy that this food is "inauthentic". It seems authentic enough for us. But by and large, it's not particularly tasty. The Lemon Chicken is really pretty forgettable. The Orange Chicken is supposedly spicy enough to merit a special indicator on the menu and that stunned me. It's a LITTLE bit spicy but no way does it need a "warning". My husband had the Moo Goo Gai Pan and he liked it but said it lacked a "certain something", like it needed a bit of a kick. We both went nuts for the Spicy Green Beans when we were there six months ago (and normally I loathe green beans) but then when we were there a few days ago, they were out of beans!!! I was so so so bummed, having looked forward to them since last summer. Not the end of the world but dag, I was bummed. We ordered very forgettable spring rolls in lieu of the green beans. What I do enjoy about this place probably the most is that it's got a really lovely dining room with really lovely mountain views from many of the seating areas. We've also had very pleasant and prompt service the times we've been. HUGE complaint that all by itself knocks a whole star off the grade: The ladies' bathroom always always always has a line. There are at most three stalls, maybe two. When we were there last Thursday, the dining room was about 25% full (mid-afternoon slow period) but both times I tried to use the restroom, there were 5 or 6 women in line. AB.SURD. I don't spose there's anything they can do about it but it is truly ridiculous and hugely inconvenient.

So PF Changs.....a chain, yes. Tasty and cheap? Yes. This place is in the mecca of suburbia and shopping malls, but once inside you forget all that for a bit. I find the sort of new-age Western interpreted Chinese art and architecture highly interesting (ah...bastardization!), and the lighting....well its nice, you know? What I like especially about this place is the fact that cheaper things to make, like vegetarian food, are actually cheaper on the menu. Not to mention the lettuce wraps...now that follows the Tao!!! (Talk about bastardization...ugh)

As everyone already knows, PF Chang's serves Americanized Chinese food. I actually like it just as much as I like authentic Chinese food because my palate is very open to different flavors and textures. My personal favorites here are: Mongolian Beef (not even close to the Mongolian beef served in Chinese restaurants; lightly breaded, very salty, but flavorful); Sea Bass, Dang Dang Noodles, Fried Rice. Overall, in my opinion, majority of dishes are prepared using the same base sauce so they taste almost the same. Also, I agree with other fellow yelpers regarding saltiness of the dishes - I think I bloat overnight after eating at PF Chang because their dishes have excessive amount of sodium.

Four stars for the view - this is one of the best places to dine al fresco. The patio is large with comfortable seating and large umbrellas. On less outdoor friendly days, the inside dining area also has excellent views of the front range. Ask for a table or booth close to the window - on a clear day you can see all the way to Long's Peak. Too bad the food and service don't match the view. On past occasions I've really enjoyed the food. Perhaps they've had major turnover in the kitchen as the food has definitely gone downhill. The chicken lettuce wraps appetizer, once a culinary treat, is now just ordinary - kind of a pile of brown goo (sound appetizing doesn't it). At least the iceberg lettuce was fresh. I ordered the Almond and Cashew Chicken lunch bowl primarily because it was less expensive ($8) than the regular entrees (starting at $11) and because it included soup. The chicken was good and there were a fair number of cashews and veggies (I couldn't recognize any almonds) however the garlic soy sauce was so bland that it ruined the entire dish. This bland mixture was served in a bowl atop a huge mound of overcooked, under-seasoned brown rice. More like mush than rice - it was pretty bad. Service? Well we were greeted right away and were seated promptly. Our server brought drinks right away and our courses paced properly. One problem - and this is major in my book - our server must have missed the day during "server training" where they talked about clearing plates before serving the next course. We had obviously finished off our appetizer when he brought out soup. Instead of clearing the plates, he just set our soup down where ever he could find an open spot. I asked him to take away our finished plates and he mumbled something about how he would come back after he'd delivered everything he had on his tray. What?! This happened again when we received our main course. We ended up piling dirty plates off to the side until he got around to coming back for them. This is inexcusable in my mind especially at a restaurant where you're typically spending $20 or more per person (much more if you have wine) for lunch. So if it's a warm sunny day, I'd recommend the patio at PF Changs - just don't assume that the food will be as satisfying as the view.

Not my fave location. They need more veggies in their dishes.

Returned for lunch recently for a business casual meeting and service on the deck was great, even the hot oils and sauces came out immediately, The lunches were very nicely prepared and found this service improvement, in my eyes, makes me look at returning as much as I can.

Not really sure how this place received 3 or even 4 stars. Just like I'm not really sure how my original review was deleted. WTF? So we arrived right after the lunch crowd which we thought would be a fantastic idea. Well, it wasn't. Sure we were sat promptly but guess what happened as soon as we sat? We waited. Yup. For about 5 minutes. WTF? I think that once you say WTF twice in a review that is obviously NOT a good sign. Our waiter finally arrived and took our drink orders. We ended up ordering water and tea (peach, I think). While in the middle of conversation with my family member, I noticed my silverware was dirty. I mentioned this to my family member and she noticed her silverware was dirty as well. Strike one in my book. Finally the waiter came over and took our order of Peking Dumplings, Beef with broccoli and some seafood dish my family member ordered. He also took away the disgusting silverware and brought fresh sets. I do have to say the tea was fabulously smooth and extremely tasty. Too bad he filled it up to the rim as we ended up having pools of water on the table! Ah! Once the Peking Dumplings (steamed) arrived, I was wondering why there were only 4 and why they tasted so bland and not so tasty? Again, WTF? A few short minutes later our entrees arrived along with dirty plates. Ok, ok I get it. The dishwasher sort of sucks or doesn't work as hard but COME ON. WTF?! Please serve some clean dishes once in a while! Word! That's 2!!! The beef with broccoli was smothered in some sort of brown super saucy substance and I felt like the meat was trying to swim away from me. Not cool. The seafood dish my family member ordered tasted like it was smothered in some super spicy tomato sauce. Not cool. Sigh, is this place falling off? Or, is this not a place to eat during the day? Does the dim lighting at night make it a pleasurable 3 to 4 star establishment because there are more people? I'm really confused. And, I've been here plenty of times before today. Our waiter was kind enough to offer us a 1,000 calorie plus dessert. The dessert was thought of about 3 weeks ago and is now being served in participating restaurants. Imagine 9 various shot glasses (well the dessert is served in a glass larger then a shot glass but smaller then a water class) filled of various cakes such as: cheesecake, chocolate, mousse, etc. VERY LOVELY! But, unfortunately I was stuff from the over saucy dishes. This places was definitely a 2 star this time around. Sorry to disappoint.

disgusting food the service completely was awful we ordered pot stickers, and a waiter never asked us if we wanted pork or chicken or vegetable potstickers he just took the order and left. the restaurant was completely no easy I couldn't even hear the people that were sitting in front of me at my table. with our food arrived it was cold and mushy. later that night 3 of us got sick on that food that we ate at this restaurant. I would not recommend this restaurant for anyone.

I've always liked their food. Gourmet family style asian. Yummy Long Islands. Good date place, neat atmosphere... nice decor. Reservation advised. I'd avoid their Aurora location. This place is usually pretty busy no matter which one you go to. Suggest making reservations. Service here could be better, but I go back anyways.

I have eaten at this PF Chang's 3 or 4 times, including last night. I have found the food to be mediocre at best and overly salty on past visits and would not have gone again but for receiving a gift card. I'm not sure I will be back. I really am at a loss as to why this restaurant is popular. We called in last night, arrived around 30 minutes later, and still waited another 30 minutes to be seated. This was on the late side too. This particular PF Chang's is very noisy to outright loud. The hot sour soup was OK, but I've had a lot better. The veggie lettuce wrap appetizer was not good; very salty and unappealing. My entre, the Ginger Chicken, was OK. My wife's entre, Shrimp Cantonese, was bland and tasteless. Disappointing.

This place is always packed and the service is so so. I only really like the crispy chicken and some of the appetizers. Mixing up your own dipping sauce is cool. Lunch prices are cheaper than dinner but I just go to Pei Wei now which serves many of the same dishes as here but at lunch prices.

Okay, I'm not a fan of the fusion and less than authentic Westernized Chinese food. But people at work wanted to eat here and I was pleasantly surprised. The food was tasty and the portions are pretty good. The price was not bad and service was good. I really liked the Beef A La Sichuan. My only complaint was the very dark place and it was challenging to read the menu by candlelight.
