Before plunging into my review, I would say up front that I agree that PF Chang's is a Chinese-American dining experience.
There are so many other places in Toronto to get authentic Chinese food (ie Markham or Chinatown @ Spadina/Dundas)
Having said this, you can have some really food here, and the food quality is very good.
So -- what we enjoy here:
APPETIZERS
- chinese lettuce wraps
- crispy green beans
- they have a new app on the menu - pork, chicken or shrimp dumplings (aka potstickers) -- we had the pork and they were great!!
MAINS
- the shrimp in lobster sauce is great!
- try the cantonese duck --- so moist and the sauce is omg sooooo good
- asian grilled salmon
You get your mains with white or brown rice -- nice to have the choice!
You can get a number of different teas -- my hubby likes the jasmine but personally I go with the oolong every time! It comes in cast iron teapots which keep it nice and hot.
They bring over a condiment tray in the beginning, but if you don't like spicy food -- suggest you stop them from mixing it up -- they always add chilis!
Decor is upscale and they have a large patio.
They have valet parking for $3 or you can park in the lot near the LCBO.
