P.f. Chang's - Rockaway

I?m going to just say off the bat that for a restaurant opening, this place deserves 5 stars all around. In a time where staff in is hard to find, good staff is even harder to find. From the minute we walked in, the staff was friendly, attentive, courteous and until we left, went above and beyond the entire visit. The food came out hot, timely and the portions were HUGE. My parents had some special accommodations and changes to meals, and the server was veryunderstanding, patient and came back to check on us during the visit many times. The decor is stunning. The bathroom are even more beautiful. If you?ve never been to a P.F. Chang?s before, you know the decor is slightly different at all ofthem. It?s been cool to visit all of the Chang?s in the area. Have to also say that our experiences at other PF locations didn?t always hit the mark. This visit, because of the fantastic experience we had, changed our mind about the chainas a whole, for the better. We are loyal PF Chang?s guests, and gave it another shot, and not are we happy we did. Sometimes going to a restaurant when it first opens, service can be slow, food can be cold, etc. but this location was beyondwell staffed to handle the volume in all areas. The training you could tell prior to opening was superb. 2 weeks after a restaurant opens, you don?t really expect this level of service, and it exceeded all of our expectations. Shout out toour amazing server Elsy, and for the bar manager Vanita who was so friendly polite, and also checked on us a few times during our visit. Keep up the great service, and I see a very bright future for this location. Wishing you the best ofluck and thanks for a fantastic birthday experience! :

Gotta say I was impressed first time here and every food entree was good. The ribs Mongolian beef and sesame chicken was good. Friend rice cost extra 3.50 which I though was alot but still overall food was great I'd definitely come here again

As a fan of the Franchise, I was looking forward to the opening in Rockaway, NJ. I have been ti other locations and was always happy with the experience. Though it is very pricey for what you are actually getting. Lunch Take Out Review : Service : 5 out of 5 Value: 2.5 out of 5. $15 with Tax and $1 extra for Fried Rice for a Lunch size. You are really paying for all of the fancy Branding and packaging of your food. I would much rather have better food than branding. Food: I can only speak about the Orange Chicken. It was tasty, but it was ALL Bread and Sauce with very little chicken. Some pieces had no Chicken. The Fried Rice had very little flavor.. It was Fresh and tool 15 -20 minutes to prepare once theorder was placed. I will try a different dish on my next visit. They are a New location and will give a little time to work out the kinks before going back. I will be back of course... it's PF Changs..
