About this Event

Yes, we are taking a break from The Commentary. By comparison, P.F. Chang's next door offers complimentary validated garage parking, fabulous drink specials, and faster service with two dedicated bartenders! It checks all the boxes.

Reserve your spot for free so we have an accurate guest count. The first 100 to RSVP will get in. This signature social event happens monthly and brings together LGBTQ+ folk from all over the DMV and the world! Better yet, there is no cover. There also is no group tab to worry about; order whatever you want on you own.

This fun event will be held at P.F. Chang's, which is literally only a few steps away from The Westin. We've arranged much better drink specials and complimentary validated parking (at the Arlington Gateway entrance/exit next to the restaurant on Fairfax Drive, which is separate from the Westin entrance/exit). The venue also offers a variety of optional and exciting food options just in case you are hungry, a complete win-win!

Join us and see all the wonderful new amenities at P.F. Chang's and catch up with each other. This event is ideal for making new friends, professional networking, idea-sharing, and community building. Or just unwind and enjoy the extended happy hour.

P.F. Chang's is all about coming together and connecting in conversation and shared experiences. It takes pride in bringing life to every dish through the ancient art of wok cooking. Grounded in the rich flavors of Asian cuisine and presented with a modern twist, purposeful ingredients elevate each of the expertly crafted recipes. See the menu: https://www.pfchangs.com/menu

Happy hour specials will be in effect. https://www.pfchangs.com/docs/default-source/pdf/aug_2024_happy-hour-menu-national.pdf

P.F. Chang's is right next to the Westin hotel in the safe area most attendees are familiar with.
