  This was a great find for lunch before flying out.  The seating area was awesome, the best in the airport!
  We had the chicken bahn mi, caramel chicken and a kids teriyaki chicken meal.  The bahn mi was good but the ratio of bread to filling was off and it was slightly dry.  The caramel chicken was a hit, very tasty.  The kids meal was ok, lacking in flavor but it was a good size portion.
  It's too bad there aren't more of these in the St. Paul area because I would eat here again!

  Located between C2 and C3, this is without a doubt, the best Asian cuisine at the airport. Although they are constructing a nice seating area outside the restaurant, the few tables inside were all filled  with self endorsed, low paid flight crew. (Sorry, I have little time for them) Only one of the 8 was eating. I had a spicy chicken dish that will cause me to return soon! It did take longer to cook than I'd like, but one taste made that a small concern.

  Food is great. The service & staff, not so much. Took 20 minutes to complete my order - which, you'd think, in an airport would merit a warning. No such luck. When I complained, the lady behind the counter said "I would have told you if you asked." In other words - it was a known problem and it was my fault not asking, not theirs for failing to inform customers that they were running slow. Right.
  
  Sad, because the food was actually quite good. I just wish I'd had adequate time before my flight to enjoy it.

  The best Asian option at MSP.    Located near C3 it has nice seating outside and inside.......Limited menu compared to a full service Pei Wei, but nice selections.   I had the lettuce wraps (a bit too salty and too much soy sauce), and a children's meal (teryyaki chicken).  Both were good....better than other Chinese food choices in MSP.

  Absolutely the best Asian food I've ever had... in an airport. Also pretty darned good. They were very willing to make vegetarian versions of their foods. I had the chicken fried rice, and they not only removed the chicken, but they used a different (non-chicken broth) sauce. How cool is that? It was awesome, 4.5 stars even for a non-airport restaurant. It was almost Thai-like, with slightly broken noodles. My wife had the honey seared chicken without chicken with brown rice, and it was OK, a little bland, but hey, it was awesome to have the flexibility to have stuff tailored for your needs!

  The spicy chicken bowl is excellent. This is going to be my new go to for my MSP meals.

  This is the first time that I've ever been to Pei Wei Asian Diner.  I have absolutely nothing poor to report about any aspect of this delicious and relatively healthy fast-food option at the airport.  The girl at the register was upbeat and helpful in making recommendations.  After a couple of minutes she successfully persuaded me to go with the Kung Pao Chicken Bowl, which I don't regret the least bit.  It was extremely spicy as I had requested, which was terrific.  The ingredients were very fresh, and it was ready to go in about 5 minutes after I placed my order.  I knew it was a popular place because shortly after I started to eat it got very crowded. Definitely a must-try if you're on a short schedule waiting for a flight and want a healthy and tasty meal.
