I have come to this chain of Pei Wei since it first opened back in 2009. I always loved coming here, and considered it a treat.
But in the last 4 months or so, I decided I will never come here again. Both the food quality and service has changed for the worse. The last three times I went there I was enraged by deliberate non-accomodation with side sauces, messing up the orders, reduced portions and food quality such as the chicken in each dish. The chicken now looks and taste like the cardboard chicken (and small pieces) that you buy in a cheap frozen section of a grocery store. Before, the chicken was juicy, fresh, larger with the incredible taste of the sauces such as the orange chicken, or thai coconut curry, which certainly doesn't taste as good as it used to, and portions are greatly reduced compared to previously.
The last two times dining there I paid for extra sweet chili sauce, but they only gave me one. When I asked where is the extra, the girl told me you get extra by the packets. I had to talk to the manager to get the simple side sauce. And by the time they gave it to me, I was just about done with the entry.
The last previous time dining there the same thing happened, but this time they did not give me the side entree sauce that I paid for. I said to the girl that you owe me an extra sauce. She said ok. I ended up waiting about 10 minutes (again just about finishing the entree). When I went up to the counter and asked the girl for the sauce, she didn't even tell anyone, then argued with the chef if I paid for it or not, the lax manager walks by and I said you owe me a sauce, I paid for it. He then said don't worry about it the girl will take care of you. Five minutes later when I only had two pieces of chicken and a teaspoon of rice that I saved (while waiting for them), they gave it to me from the counter, I walked back with it and burnt my hand because it was so hot, to put on my two pieces of chicken and teaspoon of rice.
Not once did anyone apologize for the deliberate unaccomodating service, nor the poor food quality.
I am done with this chain!

Hybrid between fast food and sit-down restaurant. Food was good. Service was fine. Cleanliness could have been a little better, such as the seating, high chairs, and floors could have been wiped and mopped a bit better.

Ordered takeout for dinner as I hadn’t tried Pei Wei in a looong time (probably 10 years). I remembered really liking the location in Tampa forever ago with everything being fresh and decently priced. Unfortunately the current version is more like an expensive Panda Express. Showed up late for my mobile order, and it was still another 10 minutes delayed. That was a bad start. Food was on par with a PE at the mall, but the price is notably higher. Will probably wait another 10 years to try again.
