A delightful meal from start to finish, albeit an expensive one. Our server, Maria, was attentive and provided excellent recommendations, especially the steak tartare—it was our favorite dish, and one we wouldn't have ordered on our own. We'll be back, but only for special occasions.

We have not dined at any PF Chang’s in awhile. The food is still very good! But a little pricey - especially the cocktails!
