P.F. Chang's

Food delicious; lots of vegetarian offerings; service good; prices just right; kid friendly. We go there often

My husband and I frequently dine out at least three times a week. We've never been able to get into the new P.F. Chang's in Annapolis until we decided to visit for an early lunch today (before noon). On our arrival at the restaurant, it was still fairly empty with plenty of available seating, including several vacant booths, one of which we requested (particularly since it was cold outside and we wanted to have a private conversation). A girl attending the front podium advised us that we could not have a booth since the restaurant assigned seating by the wait staff queue (what??). She seated us at a table (that was not properly set - no silverware or napkins) that was also close to the front door. We've eaten at other P.F. Chang's chain restaurants previously. While it's not great, the food is usually acceptable although my husband's "Singapore Street Noodles" were terrible (he said that the noodles tasted like they were cooked in a dirty pan). My diet Coke soda was completely flat (not just the first glass but also the refill).



When we left the restaurant, the podium staff (who we had to pass to get out of the restaurant) did not thank us or so much as acknowledge we were leaving - they were too busy chatting it up with each other.



This will be first - and last - time we'll spend our money ($43 for LUNCH!!) at this location. They need to take a cue from Gordon Biersch, just down the street. The service there is outstanding - with lots of appreciation for our business.
