“Overall pleased and will likely return. First time ever at a PE. Not immediately acknowledged when we walked in and no signage indicating where the line started, but fortunately they weren’t busy so it only took a few minutes before we were asked if we had placed an order yet. We viewed the menu online before going so we weren’t standing there wasting time while deciding. Disappointing that neither the website menu nor the menu in the restaurant had descriptions for those like us with little experience with asian based foods. Got our food and drinks quickly. Two orders fried rice, two orders honey sesame chicken, one orange chicken, one teriyaki chicken, two sweet teas. Wish they had knives along with the forks as some of the bites were larger and could’ve used a knife to cut into smaller pieces, but forks only was manageable. Noted that the original orange chicken on the menu is labeled as spicy, although it wasn’t (which to me is a good thing). Dine in space was a little tight and few booth options where you can sit more privately with a smaller group. Since it wasn’t crowded at the time, this wasn’t such a big deal. The restaurant was notably chilly, and while it feels good in our southern heat waves, when your food is only slightly warm to begin with, the cold air cooled our meals down much too quickly. Other positive notables: friendly staff, quick service, clean facilities. A medium size drink here is a large at many other restaurants, so you do get more value for your drink at PE. Other negative notables: while I despise styrofoam containers being used in sit down environments, I can somewhat understand restaurants using them to help with consistent portion control. What I found particularly bothersome is that the containers they are using are significantly smaller than the standard size boxed containers I’ve seen widely used in other restaurants.”
