Pei Wei Asian Kitchen - McAllen

Another take on Asian fast food! The variety of dishes is impressive, and they offer plenty of vegetarian options. All of their entrees are fantastic and keep me coming back for more.

So, we decided to speak with the cooks. One of them even admitted he had added too much spice! Unfortunately, he didn’t offer any assistance or solutions. In the end, we asked for to-go containers because we couldn't finish our meal. It’s disappointing that they didn’t offer to rectify the situation. We didn’t ask for free food; we simply couldn’t eat what was served. I know this isn’t typical for them, as they are usually very good and helpful. I guess today was just an off day.

Ordered orange chicken and firecracker chicken. Food was decent quality but it aS overpriced Wouldn?t recommend

First time being here and only tried two entrees: dumplings and Dandan noodles. Dumpling wrappers had a nice, soft, chewy texture and the filling was tasty. The noodles were...mostly noodles and needed more sustenance either by way of more protein or green vegetables. The only vegetable here was a bit of zucchini garnish and a few scallions. Definitely needed more heat from the chili oil as well as sesame seeds/ crushed peanuts for a crunch so, it was a little bland and I felt the need to condiment with soy sauce ?. Their Asian donuts, though small in size are subtly sweet, warm, and balance nicely with the condensed milk. So far, this is Panda Express 's pretentious cousin, but I 'm all for second chances, and am willing to come back (for the donuts alone) to try a few of their other dishes for good measure before making up my mind on this one ?.

Ordered the lettuce wraps and even paid extra for more lettuce and this is what they gave us! Come on Pei Wei you can't send bad food out the door. We ordered to go so of course we were already home and paid for it when we saw it.
