Went tonight for my very first experience of a PF Changs...not impressed at all.
I was taken by 2 people who have been a number of times in Florida...apparently it is quite different there than here.
Where to start...decor, restaurant out of a box....I've seen these exact same faux-stone walls and columns in various restaurants around N. America and the islands...give me break. The lighting is terribly bright, I felt like I was in a cafeteria...get some different bulbs please.
Food...egg-rolls...absolutely tasteless...the only flavour came from the dipping-sauce...honey-mustard..really?
Chicken in lettuce wraps...pretty bland and gimmicky, was not impressed and would not recommend.
Main courses...mongolian beef and the sesame chicken were both good, not great but definitely worth the money and worth having.
SpiceyShrimp and noodles...so overloaded with salt it was un-edible! and I'm pretty salt-tolerant!!...kudos...they did not charge us for it.
Service was friendly,efficient and fast.
Drinks...1 vodka-tonic,1mojito and 1 Tsing-tao beer
no coffee, no desserts.
Cost $87. including taxes but before the tip.
My 2 friends told me the food was far better presented and much tastier at the US PF Changs in Florida that they go to and that the decor was more upscale there also...all of which is kind of counter-intuitive in a way.
All said and done I found the $87 price for what we got to be acceptable...you get what you pay for.
I would not bother going back...the food,location and ambience just aren't worth my time or effort. If you want Chinese food there are plenty of places in Montreal with much,much better food.
