I have no idea what restaurant the rest of these people were eating in... but we were there this evening and oh. my. The food lacked any sort of unique flavor. We order: Crab Wontons Pork Egg rolls Teriyaki Shrimp and Rice Bowl Sesame Chicken Entree The egg rolls came out first, and I was excited when I took a bite and they were fabulous. It was the perfect mix of a spring roll and a pork egg roll, I loved the flavor, but that was the last decent bite we had that meal. The crab wontons are served on a plate that the entire bottom is coated with a sweet and ultra spicy chili sauce. My husband ate the Teriyaki Shrimp Rice Bowl and I had Sesame Chicken. We each tasted each others, and there was no difference in the taste. Every bite had an overwhelming flavor of butane, and before I even had time to finish my meal, I had to go to the bathroom because my stomach was so upset. Everything was too spicy for my daughter to even touch, we ended up driving across the street to Wendys to get her something to eat. The only positive thing I can say besides the egg rolls, is the service was fantastic. Everyone was really pleasant, quick and attentive. The manager came over to check on us and played with our daughter for a minute, before returning to work. I truly hope this was a one time experience, since so many others have rated this restaurant so well, but I dont know if I can risk eating here again. It was a $40 meal that just made me sick for the rest of the night!

Stopped in tonight (July 4th), my girl friend ordered Pei Wei spicy chicken gluten fee, with lettuce wraps, I ordered Mongolian steak and we took our seats, it was a little busy so it took 30 minutes for my girl friend food to come out, I am still waiting as she eats, 15 minutes later a server comes over and tells me they are out of steak!! So I decide to not eat and have my meal refunded, several minutes later a gentlemen comes over and ask if I needed to talk to him,(manager), he states that they have made a mistake and he is cutting some steak for my meal, apologizes profusely about the mix up. So I decided to wait, my girl friend has finished her food. A few minutes later (15), another gentlemen comes over says he is the manager and was wondering if My problem was resolved??, I told him I was waiting for my dinner, he states that they are out of steak and apologized profusely again, so now it is a hour and 15 minutes since we arrived, my girl friend has finished her meal, me I am at home now eating hot dogs-again! If this was the first time this had happened I would not be writing this, I have been eating here with my girl friend for three years at least once a week, due to her gluten allergy, I have lost count on the number of times my meal has been wrong or forgotten, I guess I will have to pick up my meal at Popos and bring it with me when we go back. if I ever go back.

My boy friend and I had dinner there tonight and his food was brought over to our table by itself. We sat there watching file a while, trying to be polite and patient, as its dinner time and I understand, working in the food industry myself. After sitting there for probably 5 minutes however, and my boyfriend politely and respectfully let his food get cold waiting for me to get my food, we flagged down a busser and told them I was still waiting on my food. Several minutes later a manager came over to tell me they are out of what I ordered. Meanwhile Im pretty sure we saw my food go to another table that had come in and sat down after us. He told me they were out, made a joke about it, as if I hadnt been waiting a while already, and then asked if he could get me some item I didnt order. I ordered what my boyfriend had and then proceeded to wait a very long time. When he was done eating, my food was delivered by someone and I was never issued an apology and asked how it was,even though my broccoli was practically still raw (a result of them hurrying Im sure) . Only wrote the review because I understand mistakes happen, but the customer service was not handled properly. Very disappointing.

My fiancé and I used to come here every weekend for date night and they usually messed up one of our orders, but we love the food. We dont come here as often as we used to since we moved further south and I wanted to come here for my birthday dinner and this is our last visit here. I am used to them screwing up my order, but I asked them to fix it and they forgot my order! My fiancé is well past done eating and he finally asks one of the servers about my order and they had no idea what he was talking about!? The manager asked what I ordered and I told him and my oder still came our wrong, but I was too hungry to wait for them to screw up again and ate what I could. The manager didnt apologize or even offer us a refund or anything! Beyond disappointed that I wasted my Birthday dinner here!

Super rare for me to rate any business here on Google 5 stars but Pei Wei deserves each of the 5 stars I gave it. The meals are to die for, the atmosphere is cozy and comfy, and the staff members (especially the tall, Hispanic gentleman who works the floor clearing plates, bringing meals to tables, etc.) are professional and warm. Definitely a no nonense place where you can count on a good meal each an every time. Even on a busy Saturday night, you still can get a table (just be aware that theres a lot of foot activity going on around your table so if you cant stand that, just try to get a table close to the wall).

Fiance ordered a roll and it was drenched in sauce. I ordered wings and a noodle bowl. The food runner brought one item to the table at a time starting with my entree. After my entree got cold He finally brought the wings. These people have no idea about pacing a meal. Our entrees were even brought out separately and with a lot of time in between. My fiances entree was sesame chicken and was doused in a citrus flavored sauce for whatever reason and my entree had an odd after taste. Not nearly worth $30. First time there and will not return

First time ever eating at Pei Wei and Ive got to say that I will definitely be coming back. I ordered sweet and sour chicken with fried rice and I was extremely satisfied, after two bites I said that I was coming back. Food arrived promptly, we came in late near closing. Food was hot. Facility was clean, except the floors or at least where I walked (it felt like someone had spilled something prior). Staff was nice, cashier was super nice and accommodating to me getting use to the menu. The outside dining area was a nice alernative.

If youre looking for a simple, quick, Asian lunch without any hassle, youve come to the right place. Pei Wei is my go to place when Ive decided not to search for authenticity and want to shove tasty Mongolian Steak down my mouth on a lunch break. Although Im not a huge fan of corporate eaterys like this, I have to say that they never disappoint. This particular Pei Wei is run well, not usually busy, and clean. We cant find beautiful little hole-in-the-wall places everyday, so in between, its good to have a decent meal regardless.
