It seems like the reviews for PF Changs in Maple Grove are either really harsh or really complimentary... Im definitely somewhere in the middle. As a chain restaurant, I dont think you should go a place like this expecting anything spectacular or extremely authentic--you know what youre getting into when you go in there. The location for Changs is good, especially from a business standpoint. The Arbor Lakes area in Maple Grove has just about every type of cuisine known to man. Almost every major chain can be found around here providing a lot of dining options for the hungry shopper. There is ample parking as well, which makes getting to Changs easy. Another plus as far as the location goes is that it's on the end and in a corner of the mall--great for winter when you dont want to be walking down that wind tunnel they call a shopping center. As for the food... Well, it's good, but certainly nothing memorable. I can think of about half a dozen "Chinese" restaurants that have the exact same food. The unfortunate thing is that it's pricey for what you get. You can get the same quality at Pei Wei (which is owned by Changs) for a little less money. Service was so-so... But one thing I should mention is that the woman at the table next to me found a big rock in her food. A big one--I saw it clearly from across the table. I believe they replaced her entree but it was quite shocking to see something that big and obvious in her food. It didnt ruin my appetite or anything, but I still wouldnt want that happening to me. I can't write this review without saying how much I love the big horsies in front... I know this is irrelevant, but hey, it's my review. Pros: Good location, ample parking, decent food Cons: Food isnt memorable, service is so-so, it's over-priced for what you get read more

Always so good!! My fav chicken lettuce wraps and beef/broccoli. Next time try the Mongolian Beef - so yummy!

Another place where I'm just not well versed enough to speak to the authenticity of the food, though I will say I want to try just about everything on the menu. I have a strong hunch this is merely Americanized East Asian at its finest, but then again, if it tastes delicious, does it really matter? Really great dishes. Don't be frightened, though, by what they claim is "spicy", because it isn't. At least what I've experienced. Chang's does a really great job putting together complex tastes, and perhaps this is a safe way for those unaccustomed to East Asian food to sample it. A lot of people will surely enjoy the confluence of cultural dishes here: Indian, Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and so on. Few restaurants can do well with such diverse dishes, but these guys are on point. Of course, happy hour is always welcome, and a rewards program helps to keep the visits regular. I'm also a big fan of their wine selection, even if, like the food, a tad pricey. The old adage rings true: you get what you pay for. There are far more expensive restaurants with far less delectable food. There's not much to disappoint here. Just good luck choosing a dish in the meantime! read more

P.F. Chang's - Singapore Black Pepper Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Maple Grove, Minnesota

Had a nice evening gathering with a few friends. We enjoyed the wontons and I would highly recommend the Kung Pao Chicken. Will be back soon! read more

Enjoyed our meal. Very flavorful and more than enough. Staff was friendly and hosts greated with smiles and very welcoming.

We stopped at P.F. Chang's recently for dinner. While the staff was friendly and attentive, the recipes have been changed for the worse. It used to be amazing, fresh, and a great meal out. We ordered some favorite items from the past and some new items. We were very disappointed. Recipes were simplified, seasoning/sauces were horribly out of balance, fried items had a faint taste of rancid oil, and multiple items were old prepared long in advance. Should have taken a clue that the dining room was almost empty. Won't be returning. read more

I've been here 3 times and each time was worse than the last. Inconsistent food, poor quality and overall negative experience.

I feel the service and food quality have declined. We used to frequent the Maple Grove location at least once a week. We always enjoyed being served by Haley at the bar. Tonight, Jenifer was there. She appeared overwhelmed by the orders and the tables she was serving. I sat at the bar by myself for fifteen minutes before she even stopped to bring a menu and asked if I wanted something to drink. I enjoyed my beer but Jenifer decided she didn't need to take a food order. Another fifteen minutes before she stopped back. I had nearly left by this time. I decided to order the Shrimp Kung Pao. When it arrived, it was half celery and a third whole chili peppers. The shrimp in the dish were greasy and overcooked. I still left a 20% tip because I always do. read more

This place isn't bad, but it's very Americanized Chinese food. The prices keep going up and the quality of food is still average. My family often gets coupons for free lettuce wraps, which I do like. The service is always good and they seem to have many employees working. read more

PF Changs used to be a decent option in the land of sub par Asian food choices (Maple Grove). This is no longer the case, sadly. The food is expensive & underwhelming in quality & flavor. The fried rice now needs a generous portion of soy sauce to give it any flavor. Their vegetarian lettuce wraps are scarily similar to chewing on shoe leather. The lo mein was the least awful. I cant see how they will be able to compete with the quality of their food. Maybe some original locally owned establishment will take over the space read more

Been there twice this year hoping one bad experience was just a fluke. First time we went, the place was ice cold inside and my elderly parents were freezing the whole time. Food was good, but service was mediocre on a quiet Friday afternoon. Went again on a Wednesday night. The place was not busy but the hostess was in no hurry to seat the family of 3 ahead of us. Hostess seemed to have disappeared. When she showed back up, she had to go wipe down a table for us. Took more time even though there were dozens of tables already clean and set. Food is overpriced and lacks quality and flavor. Soda was just sparkling water and took 10 minutes just to get a correct drink. At checkout, they wanted us to pay with a QR code and smartphone, but my 80 year old mother was treating to dinner and she doesn't know that technology. Upon leaving, the same hostess who originally greeted us was sitting in the waiting area on her phone. I won't be back. read more

I guess I don't quite get the appeal of this suburban bland space! I admit I don't come here that often but I have yet to be impressed by it in any way. Nice decor and a pretty good bar for a drink but the food is very Leeanne chin like just with nice tables and pretty waitresses. Did some apps the other night and tried the lettuce wraps with some of the crab Rangoon. The chicken with the lettuce wraps may have just been from a box (or can). Really very average taste to it. The lettuce was nice and crispy! The crab Rangoon was the same, very average and easily could have come from Costco across the way. I'd figure out the night for happy hour but then maybe eat somewhere else, like Leeanne Chins! KT read more

Absolutely embarrassing experience for treating someone to a birthday dinner. Reserved stating it was birthday. Sat at one of the worst tables in the restaurant-right behind hostess stand at door. Cold temp (MN in March), no ambiance. Waitress took about 15 mins to greet us and then take drink order. They were out of what we ordered and had to return to tell us that (several minutes later). Ordered food and again several minutes later told they couldn't make sushi (WTH). Inform customers of that kind of thing up front! Edamame was gross. Dry, no flavor. Seemed like straight out of a freezer bag. Went to order dessert after watching a huge festive delivery of a dessert next to us. No candle, no discount of any sort. No acknowledgment of birthday after mentioning at seating in addition to reservation and two additional times. We will NEVER dine at PF Chang's again. For a $110 tab this was worst than going to Canes for a birthday or McDonald's. Step it up if you are going to charge those prices! read more

Gross!! My wife found a hair wrapped around her chicken lomein. They offer to comp that order and get us a new one. We didn't care for the new order or comp because the food was very good. It was just a turn off. There are so many great Chinese restaurant around but we never go because of other issues. We thought that going here would be a great atmosphere since we had relatives from out of town. Bad experience. I can see how it happened. When the servers are bringing out your food on the tray, it's close to their head and with open hair I can see the issue. Other than that very good food. read more

We had one of the worst experiences at PF Chang's last night. We had a reservation for 6:45. We were seated promptly when arriving and that was really the highlight. Our beverage and chicken lettuce wrap order were taken within 5 minutes of being seated. Unfortunately it took 15 minutes for our drinks to be delivered. We then ordered our dim sum, main entree and fried rice. About 15 minute our steamed pork dumplings arrived, cold. No one checked in once they were delivered. About 10 minutes later our waitress finally checked in, we ordered a second drink and inquired about our lettuce wraps. Yup still hasn't been delivered. Our lettuce wraps finally arrived, almost an hour after we were seated and the order was taken. Remember we ordered these with our first drink. When inquired about why our cold dumplings were delivered before the lettuce wraps we were told they come from a different part of the kitchen. These were at least hit, but they were really water chestnut wraps, there was barely any chicken! We were told twice our food was coming and continued waiting. Our food finally arrived 1.5 hours after we were seated. The rice was very good, the spicy chicken was nothing like it used to be. It tasted more like honey chicken. At that point we just wanted to eat and leave. Needless to say our dining experience took over 2 hours by the time we received our check and were finally leaving. It will be a long time before we give this location another shot. Extremely disappointing! read more

We ordered curbside service last weekend. Our bill totaled roughly $120. Was told to be there at 8:08 PM but didnt get our food until after 9:00 PM. While we are trying to be understanding with the pandemic and it's impact on the service industry - but waiting in your car for an hour is ridiculous. When we got home, much of our food was cold and didnt taste good. The orange chicken i got for my daughter was below the quality you'd find at Panda Express or Leeann Chin. To top it off, we didn't even get the wontons we ordered. I did immediately email the restaurant directly - but have not yet heard back. I normally like PF Changs but after this experience, I am afraid to ever go back. read more

Ordered combo fried rice and egg rolls along with iced tea yesterday. $25.27. Egg role advertised as home made...came out cool in middle after the fried rice. Sent them back...they were sliced at an angle with very little filling. In fact smaller than you would buy frozen in a grocery store...$6.25...Outrageous! Fried rice was "gooey" with very little meat....iced tea was fine until the refill which came as a different flavor?. Egg roles were very late getting to the table...service was poor except for the young lady at the front desk....she was super. That's why the 1 star. Better get the act together before they are forced to close....not good. read more

P.F. Chang's - Egg - Chinese Near Me - Maple Grove, Minnesota

See all

Flavor of the food is not as good as it used to be. Was very disappointed. Service was slow which I can understand. Food gets "0" stars.

We drove 20 minutes to PF Changs in Maple Grove because it had been awhile since we had been here. My husband and I sat at the bar with perfect view of the kitchen. Our bartender was awesome. The best part of the experience was his service. But as we sat eating I watched a female server with long hair stick her finger into a plate of food and then lick her finger. She proceeded to put the plate on a tray and deliver it to a customer.. I was speechless. GROSS!! The restaurant was almost empty at 6pm. We will NEVER be back. read more

Extremely unhappy with my delivery order. One container had barely a scoop of rice with its entree. Edamame had no salt. No utensils and or chopsticks in my order as specified. Took 15 minutes over scheduled delivery to arrive. Food was bland. read more

I enjoy coming to P.F. Chang's. I enjoy their food a lot and you get a large amount of it. The restaurant can be loud if you go on a busy night. I got the chicken lo mein when I am here, and it never disappoints me. read more

Nice looking restaurant. It was an early dinner, 4pm on a rainy day. There were about half a dozen people before us dining. We ordered before folks that came after us and received the meal after. We didn't order complicated meals. Their Kung Pao Chicken tasted like they cooked it in the Kim Chee Stir fry. Their cocktail tasted like juice. Small portions for the price. Save your money. Dine elsewhere. read more

The spicy chicken and the fried rice was excellent. We got take out. We've dined in before at the Maple Grove location and I really like the cozy atmosphere. My husband stated his pepper chicken didn't have much seasoning and pepper which I could agree. Very bland but I know he liked one of the steak entrees, he's had in the past. But over all the food is good quality compared to most Chinese restaurants. We'll be back to dine in. read more

I don't have a clue how this restaurant is still in business. The service was horrible and the place was nearly vacant. It took our server 20 minutes to approach our table and the drinks arrived 30 minutes after that. Of the five people at our table and each one choosing a different entree, all of us only took a few bites - the food was was not only completely tasteless but it was cold. The chicken was soggy glue, the lettuce wraps had an odd flavor making them impossible to eat (and these were one of their hallmarks), the beef were round discs of cold, jerky toughness with zero seasoning or sauce. Everyone at our table understands that most restaurants are short staffed and considered that however; this goes beyond that consideration. I remember when this was a great place to grab a bite but it is obvious that they have outworn that welcome. read more

We enjoyed our dinner this evening. All our food was hot and delicious. We had Levi as our server and he is a 10!!!! Friendly, on top of his game and the best server we have had in a long time. Next time you are here, ask for Levi's section!!!!! read more

So I tried this place again after a considerable amount of time and did takeout. Needless to say I believe it has actually gotten worse. I should have taken a picture of my Lo mien it easily had a half inch of greasy liquid on the bottom and the portion sizes have shrunk considerably. I paid $30 for two lo mien takeout with tax and small tip to get nothing but the lo mien. No napkins ,no utensils, nada and no one even offered them. Will not go back. read more

We are regulars using the P.F. Chang app but never again. Tonight's delivery showed up without two of the appetizers and when we called the restaurant they said that the delivery driver was supposed to tell us they didn't have the ingredients and that they would take them off our bill. So they were going to keep the charge unless we noticed. Then we opened the remaining dinner and the low mein was going and sauceless and the fried rice was all gummy balls so we called back in and we're told sorry it was a busy night then they hung up on us. Not sure what is going on with this restaurant but you lost our weekly order. read more

Ordered chicken fried rice. Eggs were burned, rice was dry, they cut up chicken fingers and used that as their chicken. Absolutely the worst! Chinese street noodle meal was supposed to be Gluten Free. The food had to be contaminated with gluten due to how sick my wife got from it. read more

Food was good but not worth the experience...Very unprofessional. Waited about 50 minutes to be sat and took about 15 minutes to get our drinks, 60 minutes to get our appetizer and another 15 to get our entrees. Good thing we didn't have any after-dinner plans for our date night because we played the waiting game for nearly 2 hours. read more

Walked in, was seated right away but she had to clean the table, no big deal. Waited for a bit and no server so I decided to move up to the bar since I was there by myself and there were only one couple seated at the bar. Sat down and waiting for the lady bartender. She glanced at me and kept talking and didn't acknowledge my presence. Gave her the chance to complete her conversation and help me. Was patient and continued to sit there waiting and she had no care to wait on me so I walked out. Will choose a different place to eat while I'm in town for business. read more

Back in Minnesota, but not really knowing where to go eat in Maple Grove, we had settled on PF Changs. Why not right? Well, now I know why not ... Service was solid, and the wait wasn't long. They seem to be famous for the lettuce wraps as that was what they were pushing and even provided samples of their lettuce wrap dipping sauces off the bat. And honestly they were fine, meat well seasoned, and something you can't really go wrong on. Although be warned the mustard had a wasabi-like component, sinus-clearing on it's own. The Singapore noodles were simply not up to par, and were overly oily, and nearly impossible to stomach. The noodles did not have a good consistency either, and finally, the flavor was not what I was expecting, and simply not authentic. The mafoo tofu was a little better. The tofu was done well with a crispy outside and soft center. The sauce was good but overly salty, and again overly oily. Goes okay over rice. The final straw was that possibly due to the oil content or something else, but I had severe stomach pains with diarrhea that night. I hadn't had stomach flu from eating out in a long time, and I have a strong stomach. Never again. read more

I wanted to try PF Changs based on a recommendation. I was told their Kung Pao was good and I love good Kung Pao. I ordered it for lunch today, and it was not as expected. At all. It tasted like chicken dipped in pure salt, dressed with soy sauce. No spicy tang at all. There are many reviews to reflect the same experience we just had. Surly service, check. Colonic regret (loved that comment), check. Very ungood "Chinese" food, check. We won't be back. Trust the reviews; this place isn't worth it. read more

If you want to know about their wait time, you have to show up there in person. If you call, like I did, they lie about it. Then when confronted with it, they deny it happened. I know the concept is to get people through the door and they are more likely to put up with the wait, but that doesn't cut it when there are little kids involved. Why lie? It gets you a bad review. read more

Went there with a group of 15 people. We were able to get seated right away. I ordered with 2 other people from our group. We did the Dinner for 2. We got soup, lettuce wraps, 2 meals and dessert. The soup was OK. The lettuce wraps were fantastic. The 2 meals we ordered were really good. It took a while for the rice to come out. The dessert was a Banana roll. I honestly never would have order this off the menu but it was the best part of the whole meal. It was a deep fried banana wrapped in an egg roll with coconut ice cream. After we ate this 3 other people on our table ordered it because it was so good. Our servers did a great job and helped us answer any questions we had. They were very timely and we all had a great experience. read more

I received an email from PF Chang's apologizing for the issues with my last visit and sent me a gift certificate to try them again. So I did. I went there yesterday afternoon, arrived about 2:45 pm (along with me were my sister and brother-in-law.) We were seated immediately even though the place was quite busy. First thing I checked was the "sticky" condiment bottles . . . all still sticky! Frankly, how much time would it take to wipe down each bottle while wiping down the table???? We ordered the fried green beans and beverages - they showed up about five minutes after we ordered them and the appetizer, again, was very good! While waiting for our entrees, I went to the ladies room to check out the "side saddle" toilet seat. Was not able to use the stall I used the last time, had to use the handicapped stall - and low and be hold, that seat was worse than the seat in the first stall!! Please, just take a wrench and tighten the seats please! Our entrees arrived. My entree and my sister's were good, but my brother-in-law ordered the beef broccoli . . . about 1/3 of the beef had the consistency of beef jerky and all of it was very dry . . . It looked like it has been sitting around for a long time, or over "woked" to the max. When our server came back and asked how things were, we showed her the beef broccoli, and she had the kitchen make a new one and we received it about five minutes later. Frankly, I find it hard to believe that he would have been served something of such poor quality when last time they re-fired (before it left the kitchen) my salmon because it broke in a number of pieces. The service was good, re-fire of entrees was good (but why should there need to be "do-overs" at all???). . . but it seems small fixes are not on the agenda for this location. read more

After seeing a movie this past Friday night, 4/17/15, my family of 5 all decided that we should go to the Arbor Lakes Shoppes to get something to eat. We walked past Punch Pizza, as my wife decided we should give P.F. Chang another try. The first time we went was a few months after it first opened, and we were very underwhelmed by the food. We were seated promptly, at around 8:30pm, and proceeded to wait for 25 minutes without even having a server come over to see if we would like any beverages! During this time I noticed several servers having extended conversations with each other while overseeing the dining room, yet none of them saw to it that we were accommodated. We decided to get up and leave after 5 more minutes, hoping that Punch Pizza was still open as we have always had an amazing experience at all of their locations. Thankfully they were open for another hour, and we proceeded to have some of the best pizza available anywhere in the country. We will not make the same mistake again. Shame on P.F. Chang for their inexcusably poor service, but thank you to Punch for making a family night out memorable for the RIGHT reasons. read more

Mid day weekend lunch. Restaurant was dirty. Floor sticky. Old old dust on all wood surfaces and lighting. Plexiglass on all tables had finger prints and gross. Food lukewarm. Edamame soggy &watery. Service friendly but forgot tea and soy sauce. Use to be a family favorite but we won't be back. read more

Out for dinner with my family we decided to stop at this PF Chang's. The lettuce wraps are always the go to item on the menu. They are awesome. In our opinion they are also the best item on the menu. I was a little disappointing to find that one no longer blends their own sauce, instead a pre-blended sauce was brought with the wraps. For the main dish we had the new fire cracker chicken and sesame chicken. Both dishes were bland and lacked flavor. My wife commended on a certain Asian inspired frozen entree from Trader Joe's was better, and as far as flavor is concerned, I agree. We had an issue with our kid and had the leave early. The management and service got us out the door fast which was really nice. They were also very friendly and understanding. We will be back but likely just for the lettuce wraps. read more

Last time I was there I got drunk on Saki. I'm kinda glad I was tipsy because the portions were tiny and the new recipe was a let down. Lettuce wraps are going to take a Restraunt only so far. It literally felt like they nuked a bag oriental chicken. Was a five star, what happened? And omg, the floor is slippery unsafe. read more

This poor review is not because of the food, it's instead a reflection on the takeout and the need to improve your service. You have the idea right, place your order, call and you will deliver to your vehicle. Or so I thought, until I was on hold, in my car, for five minutes before I decided to walk in to get my food. Dealing with another customer who had some sort of coupon they were having trouble redeaming. Waited, finally while she waited for a manager to give approval, she rang my order. But then instead of asking someone in the kitchen, within ear range, to give me my food, I again waited for another five minutes. I hope I make it home before my $75 order is cold. read more
