Five stars for the Peking duck! We had a large group reservation which required preorders on the chicken soup and three orders of the roasted duck. Ordered a few more entrees and enjoyed all of them. The steamed cod fish was also delicious! Venue is nothing fancy but service was good and the duck has consistently been the best in town. The group seated near us was a Korean family celebrating a birthday, we had fun singing along when the cake with candles were presented.

I have to say... this is the best Peking duck I have ever had. The crispy skin melts in your mouth! The wraps are paper thin and tasty. We had soup and a sprouts dish also. The flavors were rich and delicious. Peking duck is a little pricey, but it’s a great experience. You should make a reservation... they get busy!

Hard to get authentic Beijing Roast Duck outside of Asia... but this is probably the best I’ve had stateside. *pro tip call and make a reservation whether it’s for lunch or dinner just call. We usually get the duck two ways - roasted and then sauteed with bean sprouts (occasionally switch it up to soup) Get the steamed cod. It’s amazing. Super fresh and such a great fish steamed. (The sweet sour Squirrel fish is good too just deep fried and pretty heavy for my tastes) Depending on the party size there might also be a lobster... house special or ginger scallion (do preorder this when you book your table) And of course if there’s room... the eel on glutinous rice. The lady owner is sweet, gorgeous and so well-mannered. This is a family run restaurant so they do get overwhelmed when all the tables are full.

The lady that served us was really nice. She is very attentive and suggested us a few dishes according to our preference, since some of us do not eat spicy. I was impressed by all the dishes we ordered. The lobster was so good, I was not expecting the lobster to be a popular dish since it is a Peking duck house. The eel stick rice was amazing too. I will definitely be back to try their other dishes.

Fantastic 10-course Peking Duck banquet for 10 people at an unbeatable price of 288.95! The duck was expertly prepared across three dishes, with the wrap being a standout (we requested extra wraps). Other highlights included the shrimp, eel & sticky rice, and fillet mignon. However, the real showstoppers were the giant steamed fish and dessert soup with rice balls, which stole the show with the group. Service and ambiance were on par with a traditional Chinese restaurant. A reservation is a must, and 8-10 people is the ideal group size to take advantage of these banquets. Worth noting: they seem to have set seating times to ensure perfectly roasted ducks. We'll definitely be back – the drive may be over an hour, but it's worth it for this incredible food experience.

SoooOoo delicious! Be sure to call the restaurant at least an hour ahead to make sure they have Peking duck available. Their classic lobster tastes so divine- there were noodle underneath the lobster seasoned with sesame oil. SO YUMMMM! The lobster was huge (5-6 lbs) and only 150, very reasonable considered its quality and quantity.

We went to this place for our church’s missionary trip celebration, it was hosted by an elder sister, she brought her family many times for different occasions. Our dishes were very delicious, the service ladies were very nice, I truly hope that the restaurant space can be bigger in the future, for more dining customers.

I'm not a huge fan of Peking duck, but this place did the duck very well! The flavor wasn't overwhelming and it wasn't fatty. The other dishes we ordered were also very good. I would say the fish didn't have much flavor though and probably wouldn't order it again. For a Chinese restaurant the waiter was super attentive. Was very pleased by the service here. Would definitely come again.
