There is a really good book about this topic, "Fall in love with the problem, not the solution" by Uri Levine the co-founder of Waze.

Answer

"You'll know it when you have it." My own definition is that the demand is so high that your operations can barely catch up.

Are customers coming back to use your product regularly? High retention and active user engagement are pretty good indicators for reaching PMF

A product has reached PMF when it solves a real problem for a large enough group of people who are willing to pay for it.
