The new outlet, situated in the N Concourse Mezzanine, spans 5,879ft². 

It offers a menu featuring the restaurant chain’s signature dishes such as Chang’s Spicy Chicken, Mongolian Beef and Chang’s Lettuce Wraps.  

The restaurant also provides a selection of cocktails and an expanded beer list.  

Besides aiming to reduce order-to-table times, the venue features a grab-and-go area with a self-service kiosk. 

CI Grove Bay has hired 100 employees for the new location.  

Grove Bay Concessions CEO and co-founder Ignacio Garcia-Menocal said: “CI Grove Bay is honoured to partner with PF Chang’s, a trusted, iconic brand known for consistently great food in an inspiring environment.” 

CI president and CEO and majority partner in CI Grove Bay Donata Russell Ross said: “The opening of our first PF Chang’s is another exciting milestone for our team and company at SEA. 

 “One year after opening the Central Terminal’s marquee restaurant locations, Salty’s at the SEA and BrewTop Social, we’re now opening our first PF Chang’s as the flagship restaurant of SEA’s N Concourse.

 “Helping to deliver the vision the Port of Seattle has for its dining customers has been one of the most rewarding experiences in our company’s 45-year history. We will not only meet but we will exceed travellers’ expectations at SEA.” 

In November 2023, PF Chang’s announced the launch of a full-service bistro in Denver, Colorado.
