First time at this location we usually go to the one in West New York. The food was great we got the veggie lettuce wraps, spring rolls, tempura green beans, veggie dumplings and to top it all off- the Mongolian Beef! Great Dish to try if its your first time here. Food was great and very cheap because its happy hour so all of the appetizers were half off- cant beat that! Will definite come again next time we are at the riverside mall. read more

We had reservations for 10 people to celebrate my dads birthday. A few of us came early and asked to be seated at our table but the hostess refused to seat us until our whole party was complete. Once we finally got seated we all decided to order off the "P.F. Chang for two" menu where you can have a four couse meal for two - choose two soups, an app, two entrees, and a dessert. The table ordered the lettuce wraps, crab wonton, salt and pepper calamari and all were good. Our entrees were just as good but I can't say it stood out. Besides the mediocre food, there was nothing else left to be desired. Our server never smiled once, never checked on our table, and we were constantly searching for her to get our drinks refilled. The food came out very slow - reservations were at 7 and we didn't leave the restaurant until quarter to 10. Overall impression, just like Yelp describes a two star rating, "Meh. I've experienced better." read more

Overpriced and totally gross. They had Shanghai Cucumbers here that were inedible. They took them off the bill but still I could not believe they made them like that. They were nothing like the ones I had at another PF Changs- they were almost exclusively cucumber skin. So gross. I am gluten free and they were pretty lackadaisical about keeping that completely under control. Also, I had iced tea and I asked for sugar 9 times and it never came. I will not be returning. Our server was nice but the food, service, and attention to my allergy take this place off of my list forever. read more

I just don't get the appeal. It's an Americanized Chinese restaurant with a few frills, some fun dishes and a financier-than-most Chinese restaurant setting. They have a bar area that adds to the zeal. The portion sizes are adequate, the service hit and miss and the food consistently good but not really special, and a little too salty for my taste. The prix-fixe meal for two at $40 is a very good value, with some items available for a modest supplemental charge. In NY and NJ, there is much better, not to mention authentic, Chinese food to be had. read more

Kevin the bartender is the bomb at pf change in freehold. Great service and great food. Good atmosphere for lunches!!!

What the heck happened to this chain? I had my first P.F. Chang's meal in 2004 in Boston on a business trip, and I loved it: fresh ingredients, a nice mix of spices, friendly servers who mixed condiments at your table based on your preferences, lively crowd, etc. Since that time, it's been a slow-moving train wreck where service, cleanliness, and the quality of the food have declined significantly. The last time for me (and I mean the last time) was at the Hackensack location and it was positively awful: - Trash strewn floors and a dirty table - The Kung Pao shimp was extremely salty and the shrimp was not fresh - The server, although a nice person, had no enthusiasm for the job and it seemed like she was counting the minutes until her break or the end of her shift I suppose as long as they continue to pack the bodies into this particular location, management has no incentive to change. They have lost me forever as a customer and here is some parting advice for the brain trust/bean counters at PF Chang's: not giving a f*ck about anything other than the bottom line in the restaurant business is the kiss of death. read more

P.F. Chang's has gone way down hill. We go there because it is one of the only gluten free Chinese food options but after today it will probably be the last visit. In a mostly empty restaurant they decide to surround out table with screaming kids making dinner unbearable. Ordered additional food to go came out with our meal. The topper they brought out our daughters birthday cake in candled the person who brought it out said she wish she knew while the server came out later saying he was looking for a candle. This may sound petty but it was a comedy of errors all dinner wrong...oh and the food has gone down hill as well but from the looks of other reviews it seems that is par for the course. Waiting to pay for the check and nobody to be found. read more

PF Chang's is in general, an expensive americanized "Chinese/Asian" restaurant with OK food. Our waitress was prompt, efficient, and kind. Notes: - Using the bar area gets you seats faster or right away, and you can order anything on the menu. Otherwise, there is usually quite a long waiting period for dinnertime. - Lettuce wraps (appetizer) are great! Slightly expensive for an appetizer, but has a hefty quantity of meat/tofu. You can also ask for more lettuce wraps. - Meals come salty. I recommend asking them to lessen the salt. - Popular entree is the Mongolian beef - very flavorful, although I wished there were more veggies than the scallions. - For two women, ordering the chicken lettuce wraps and mongolian beef filled us up very well, with leftovers to boot! read more

Food is always good. House ginger beer is awesome. I just wish they had bigger portions lol

Worst service. Curbside took an 1 1/2 hours to pickup for curbside. Waited another 20 minutes and then went inside to pick up my curbside order. The food was cold and bland. I ordered fried rice with one order. I got charged for it but got white rice. This restaurant has been steadily going downhill. I would have been better off going to McDonald's. read more

Came here yesterday 10/18 and over heard an Asian male manager being extremely condescending to the bar staff, talk about unprofessional. The bartenders were awesome and friendly, you didn't feel pressured at all it was a calming environment until that one particular manager came up to the bar and made it awkward everyone was commenting how rude he was. read more

I don't know why the reviews are so bad here. Sure, it's no haute cuisine, but that's not what they are about. The prices are very reasonable and the food dependable. I have never had a problem with the service. Like all the restaurants in this area, the wait can be a bit long, but with a little planning you can get around that. Many chains have cheap meals but do nothing but deep fry or microwave frozen entrees (I'm looking at you TGIF and TGIF wannabes). PF Chang's has fresh food--really fresh food. I'm not a vegetarian, but I love ordering their veggie entrees because they are absolutely delicious. I also love that they serve mini-desserts in shot glasses. It's just enough sweet at the end of a meal. read more

One more time at my favorite asian cuisine. The food is excellent my waiter was a lot friendlier and the service on time. Mongolian beef is the best, you must order. read more

Went to P.F. Chang today and I was extremely disappointed. They make you make reservations in advance to help with social distance and when you get in there they still have you all sitting side beside the next person while having half of the restaurant blocked off with no one there. Then when you order you have to scan the qrc with your phone. Well my phone was on 5 percent and I did not have a charger and that is the only way you can see a menu and actually pay for your food. The hostess said they do that for contactless menus but yet there are 2 drink menus on each table....go figure. Then when it comes time to pay once again you have to go on the application and pay. This was just way too much. I will never come here again. read more

Awful. Slow service mixed with bland food. They ran out of white rice for god's sake! I remember this place being good but those days are long gone. Go elsewhere! Everything is cheap and low quality here, from the green tea to the filler in the lettuce wraps. read more

I was alright overall. When my friend and I walked in, they said the wait was going to be 15-20 minutes which wasn't bothering us. Less than a minute we were seated which we were surprised. I took out one star because we were sitting for over 10 minutes before our waitress even came and greeted us. I know it was over 10 minutes because we were very close to just walking out. I took out another star because my food was very salty and my appetizer came out the same time with my meal, but they were so quick so clear our tables and give us our checks.... read more

Didn't really enjoy P.F. Chang's. The wait was long (was on a weekday) and it was the same story for the food to arrive. I ordered a beef lo mein, which was both too salty and greasy. Also, they aren't very generous with their portions. The restaurant has a fantastic interior, but the dimness just ruins it. Wasn't very satisfied by P.F. Chang's. read more

Went here for lunch last week to support the breast cancer taco promotion. There were about three other tables having lunch. That should have been my first clue. Our waiter was friendly. After ordering appetizers for the table our waiter brought us dishes that were dirty and when we pointed it out he brought us new plates that were also dirty. Ordered sushi rolls, tacos and Mongolian beef. One person's sushi roll did not come out until after everyone else had finished eating . Although The waiter was apologetic about the wait, food was mediocre at best, dirty dishes and that everyone wasn't served at the same time is unacceptable ! PF Changs get it together! read more

To all the PF Chang lovers...I just don't understand! Had a luncheon here today with a few friends and all 5 of us were 'unimpressed'...the service mediocre and the food...well, I like me some good Asian fare and I can't say I'd go back ! Having a close friend who delights me regularly with her homemade cuisine .. AKA Pi's Delight! perhaps I am spoiled! I had the OOLONG SEABASS and it was OK, not spicy or flavorful enough but OK. My friend had SICHUAN FROM THE SEA and expected a little 'kick' of spice, and while it was aromatic it fell flat on the spiciness (plus the scallops were chewy). The lettuce wraps were nice (but gosh how hard is that, even I can master a lettuce wrap!!! LOL) The serving sizes were more Tapas than luncheon fare---but the prices were true Westchester lunch...oh, well. I've been here before on a date...and wasn't terribly impressed then. read more

I'm giving a 5 star rating here despite the other bad reviews. We went for Mother's Day lunch and received not only standard expected service, but above and beyond service. Our waitress was very attentive and fulfilled our requests in a timely manner. The food servings were smaller than expected for a family style menu, but everything was delicious with no issues. The above and beyond came when the crumb cake we brought for dessert from outside was not easy to cut. The shift manager was very kind and accommodating, he helped us directly and cut the cake in the back for us. He checked in again with us after to make sure everyone was happy. Overall, the staff we did interact with was pleasant. Dishes we liked: Kung pao dragon roll, pork dumplings, Hong Kong sea bass, sesame chicken read more

Now I'm a chef by trade aside from being a discerning foodie. So one with even the smallest knowledge of food would raise an eyebrow on giving P.F. Chang's 5 stars. It's not the food that earned them a 5 star review from me. It's the extreme competence they portrayed by hiring the waitress that served us. "Mara" was nothing short of spectacular. Not probably but certainly. She was was warm to the point where you felt you were being served by family. She was intelligent where you felt you were being served by a neurologist and professional to the point where you would feel the CFO of P.F. Chang's him or herself were serving you. Being in the restaurant business I actually was considering trying to poach her for one of my own employees which I couldn't do because I felt it would cheapen the outstanding experience we had. Especially since I could tell she was happy working there I felt it would of been in poor taste on my behalf. It's truly short of impossible to find staff and ESPECIALLY people like her. It was my girlfriends birthday and when she bought a dessert with a candle (as requested) she sang to her in the sweetest most sincere voice that it made us feel as if we were at our own kitchen table. We will be back and be sure to bring friends next time. I hope the hostess informed the manager of our incredible experience as I asked her. Great hire P.F. Chang's !!! Well done read more

Made a dinner reservation for 6 people and even received a phone confirmation that morning. 45 minutes past the scheduled time, these two unprofessional hostesses seated us after we badgered them at least 3x. There was no explanation other then "we are waiting for the table to be free." Since we made a reservation, the table should have been free 45 minutes ago. Salty, fake Asian food. Complete joke of a restaurant chain. Don't make the mistake of coming here. Maggiano's two doors down is much friendlier and tastier. And if you need Chinese food, you'll get better service and food at a take-out. read more

Ifcould give a zero star ,I would. They suck ,food was delivered cold and didn't taste like Chinese

My Landlord just took me to dinner here last night for my pre Birthday dinner. Of course I've eaten at numerous PF Chang's before (in TX and in White plains) but I have to say this one rocked. For starters we had the lettuce wraps, and wow do they know how to season that chicken stir-fry! Also, putting water chestnuts in anything is the way to my heart! Then of course you can mix the mustard, dipping sauce, and chili paste to mix it up after you've eaten a few plain lettuce wraps. We also got my personal favorite - the seared Ahi Tuna starter. It comes with a lovely salad and cucumbers - not that it needs that - just give me those strips of tuna and I am one happy camper. I could eat those as a meal any day! Speaking of meals - I had the Chilean sea bass with spinach as it is my Mom and Sister's favorite - and yes it was a decadent, beautiful, buttery fish in a gorgeous sauce, the spinach too was lovely. However, after all these flavors, I was envious of my landlord's simple, fresh dish of shrimp with snow peas and onions, so I kept trading him ;) I stuffed myself on the brown rice as well. On the wine note - the wine flights (you can choose any wine by the glass as a part of your $10 flight) come on an adorable tree holder! We chose the Chenin-Viognier blend which just went great with all of our seafood. Fruity, light, and semi sweet. Great meal! :) read more

My rating is really a 3.5. I sat at the bar for a Monday lunch, the server at the bar was awesome. She gave me her favorite recommendations which I loved. Happy hour menu is good, chicken lettuce wraps are nice. I got kung pao from lunch menu, superb and spicy! Drank the pear mojito, yum! And the salted caramel cake for dessert ! Poppinnnn! read more

I got the ahi tuna salad and a small order of steamed shrimp dumplings. The salad was very good and really worth the $13.00, the dumplings on the other hand were nothing to shout about. Overall it was pretty good.. read more

P.F. Chang's - Ahi tuna salad.. Very tasty - Chinese Near Me - Hackensack, New Jersey

Avoid this place...the food is not fresh. At least on a Tuesday. We got quite ill after eating here. All vegetarian entreea-lettice wraps, asparagus, spicy string beans, sauteed eggplant, waldorf salad...next day was not happy. read more

I wanted to try P.F. Chang's since I was in the mood for Asian food and I'm sorry but what a disgrace. I ordered the Stir Fried Eggplant and the "take out specialist" who put me on hold for a few minutes, was not paying attention. He called me a sir. I am a female. He sounded like he was doing something else because he was in and out on the phone. He said you want it spicy and I said noooooo. Please no I can't have it spicy just regular but instead of the white rice could I get the fried rice (it's an upcharge of $3.00 and I wanted to add asparagus to the eggplant so it wasn't so boring. The entree cost $10.50 plus $3.00 for the rice $13.50 and I didn't know how much they were going to charge me to add in asparagus but I figured $3.00 max. The guy hangs up and gives me a total of just under $23.00. So as I was driving there I said to myself this can't be right. I called back and once again they wanted to put me on the phone with the take out specialist and I said no please, someone else, so the phone girl specialist lol, put me on the phone with the manager and it turns out he charged me for a full entree of fried rice. The new total came out to $15.61 so if I didn't catch that that would have been a $7 dollar loss for me. Now the biggest problem was the food. I was hungry at that point, I would have eaten crackers and it would have taste like lobster to me but this meal was sad. First off they made it spicy so I couldn't enjoy it. The asparagus was super hard and chewy I couldn't actually eat it. It was stringy like stalks. As you can see in the photo their weren't any tips either, just all hard stalks. Like that is sad. The eggplant was full of seeds. I had to dissect the eggplant to avoid the enormous amount of seeds. When I got home the sauce was already watered down (live less than 10 minutes away) so I decided to try and cook it longer so I could at least eat the asparagus. Then sadly came the rice. It was hard. I never had hard rice before and sadly they didn't bother to mix it in well as there were huge chunks of white rice all over. I literally ate only half the order. Couldn't enjoy the meal. I normally don't post bad reviews but this one was a waste of money and I didn't even get to enjoy the food. If it wasn't near closing time I would have returned it because that was just not right at all. Undercooked, spicy and just not what I wanted. The one star is for the good condiments that were included. That's about it sadly. Never again read more

We waited almost 45 minutes after being told the wait was going to be 15 minutes. We were then surprised by the small portions and how salty our Snow Peas Beef and Kung Pao Chicken were! Though the waitress was sweet, I don't think I'll be coming here again anytime soon. read more

Great food and good ambiance. Our waiter Emanuel was awesome loved the service very professional and knowledgeable give this man a raise.

Great food and love what they did to the dining room

Lettuce wraps, spring rolls, cocktails and desserts all rock. Everything else is okay, but you can find better elsewhere. Appetizers and desserts are a great combo here! I adore that they provide you with real chopsticks, but service can be spotty. Decor is nice, dishes are awesome. Lots of menu choices. Food allergy people - they'll print a menu of things that are okay for you to eat upon request. Unfortunately, I found out that they cook nearly everything with oyster sauce so my shellfish allergy precludes nearly everything. I'm trying not too be too critical since I discovered they stopped serving my favorite noodle dish during my last visit! Mini desserts are a definite bonus though, just the right sized touch at the end of the meal. Make a reservation!! Even on a weekday this place can be busy. You can order takeout online though, and duck into the takeout window without anyone seeing you in your pj's ;) read more

I've been to better pf changs locations with menus that has more veg/seafood options. Otherwise, of course, delicious food and we had a kind waitress. Only disappointment was that i ordered appetizer (had a coupon for free appetizer) and never got it. I asked for it again and they said 'sorry the kitchen is closed.' It sounded like an honest mistake so i didnt mind, but i am still thinking about that pf chang lettuce wrap. What got me ticked off is that the coupon shows that it is redeemed, even though i didnt use it... read more

P.F. Chang's - Ahi Poke Bowl (~$11) delicioussss - Chinese Near Me - Hackensack, New Jersey

My 1 star is only for the decor and bar drinks - other than that, why do American's or non-asians insist this place is some kind of authentic Chinese restaurant?! This place is the "TGIF's/AppleBee's" of Chinese cuisine. Ask any Chinese person and they will laugh in you face. Just come here to get drunk off the bar drinks - at least the liquor there is universal. read more

I really recommend you visit this PF Chang location in Hackensack NJ. The restaurant is amazing food is everything and more as advertised. Service was awesome!!!

I have no idea why the bad reviews here, my experience here has been great. Our server, Carly has been great. Extremely attentive, attention to detail on low beverage refills and her service. The food is great; a fan is the BBQ ribs, lettuce wraps, shrimp tempura roll (a must), Mongolian beef, fried rice and garlic noodles are satisfying. Their drinks pack a punch, you'll be fine with one or more if you're feeling lucky. I would def come back again. read more
