Standard Chinese fare prepared in a middle of the road manner to appeal to a wide range of American palates. Food is fresh and good quality. It the real hi g isn't available this is a tame decent alternative. More

...better than the average Chinese restaurant. Have the lettuce wrap appetizer. A bit pricier than most, but worth it. One of my favorite chains. More

When I am on vacation I like to stick to what reviewers like. I trust the public opinion. That being said one of my friends wanted this place. And she now wished she had listened to me and my trip advisor app. The restaurant was really dark, I mean really and it was lunch time. Also this light that they... More

What can you say about P.F. Chang in general? I was first introduced to this chain by a family friend in Los Angeles and have been a fan ever since. Good ambiance, good food at average pricing. The Boston P.F. Chang is located in the Boylston area surrounded by high-end hotels and offers a great ambiance on at least two... More

This was my first time ever at a PF Chang's and I absolutely loved it! I thought it was a really great value - I was surprised at how small the bill was for all of the food we got! Service was good, the atmosphere was really nice, and the food was delicious. We stayed at a Radisson which was... More

My husband and I visited PF Chang's for lunch after a medical appointment, and really enjoyed it. We would definitely go back. I had a non-spicy chicken dish with veggies and a yummy sauce over white rice, and my husband had a spicy sauteed beef lunch plate over brown rice. I thought the portion size was a little light, but... More

Service is great here, located right next the Four Seasons hotel. Tofu is soft and not that flavored, appetizers are great, but I found myself dousing the food with spices and flavors. More

Despite this being a busy restaurant, we had great service and delicious food here twice during our stay in Boston. I tried both ginger chicken with broccoli and fried tofu with broccoli. Both were delicious. I hope to eat here again! Note that if you want lots of vegetables, ask if the dish includes them. My pouse ordered sesame chicken... More

This is not how I remember PF Changs. I remember the food being far better quality then what we experienced this weekend. The food we had was really just a pile of tasteless mush, definately a case of quantity over quality and this restaurant is not cheap either. The service was pretty sloppy as well. We had a gift card... More
