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