Whether this recipe tastes good or not, I can't say because I have not tried it. But I want to correct the misimpression given by the previous reviewer. This IS the Mongolian Beef recipe from P.F.Chang's website. However, the recipe as published there is gluten-free, and uses gluten-free soy sauce, so it may not be the version that is served in the restaurant.

We really enjoyed this. I always order the gluten free version when eating at PF Chang's because of my Celiac's, so this was perfect. I couldn't find any rice wine or soy oil at my grocery store, so I substituted white wine and vegetable oil. I also didn't use beef tenderloin because it was too expensive, so I bought sirloin instead, but that may have been a mistake because it was a bit tough. I added about 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes to the soy sauce mixture because my boyfriend likes his food spicy. I do want to note that this recipe makes two kind of small/medium servings or one very large serving, so if you're feeding more than two or your husband likes large servings, double or triple the recipe and make plenty of vegetables to supplement the main course. I will definitely keep this recipe saved, and will be making it again. VERY quick and easy, and it tastes great.
