    Came to PF Chang’s as a bday request from our son: He visited the La Jolla location recently and wanted to visit for his bday. Disappointed. Sushi Boat presentation was good but he recognized as a teen that the service was slow, mediocre at best. I was disappointed that no one acknowledged his birthday despite me adding it to the reservation notes. I can’t say we will return to this location.

    With exception to the loud child that was seated in the booth next to ours, our meal was fantastic. We had a great server and he treated us really well. We received a nice bonus dish in recognition of our anniversary: Chicken lettuce wraps. Thanks for making our celebration a special one.

    Very chill atmosphere overall. Felt like a relaxing dining experience. Even though there was a mistake by the kitchen for our food order, I appreciate the honesty the server being forthcoming about it. Wasn't very happy that I had specified a Booth in my reservation and the hostess sat a non reservation/walk in at the last Booth. Then proceeded to give attitude when I brought that detail up in the reservation. Rude response. Maybe management can train the hostess better to pay attention to specified details and etiquette towards guest.

    We celebrated our upcoming 50th anniversary with our visiting son and family. Another great meal with attentive service to our table. This is an excellent restaurant for celebrations, especially good at caring for the needs of children and parents.
