Kineski restoran Peking — Restaurant in City of Zagreb

I don’t usually complain or leave bad reviews, but wow, I left feeling unpleasant & after this. I wanted to snack on something in the park, got a few spring rolls with meat. When I ate in the park, I couldn’t taste any meat, just cabbage & carrot. When I looked, were literally a few tiny crumbs of meat that I couldn’t even physically taste. I thought it was a mistake. I went back, asked if this may have been an accident & got the veggie rolls instead of meat ones. I spoke to who seems to be the owner, he cut the ones I didn’t eat and pointed out the (crumbs of) meat, he seemed offended, like I’m inconveniencing them & like I’m being a Karen. I’m not a Karen, nor did I behave like one; I came with a non-combative attitude and asked if they can make me new ones with more meat since tbh, the amount they put felt like the restaurant was trying to save as much as possible on meat while still considering it spring rolls with meat. He pretty much said no he won’t put more meat, and “that’s how they make them”. He re-made me 2 new ones, when I ate them in the park they expectedly had the same amount of meat (barely nothing). I felt I was treated like I’m being overly fussy, I swear that if you were to eat these without looking you’d think they’re veggie spring rolls cuz the meat is so nonexistent that your taste buds would not pick up on them. I felt this could’ve been handled better instead of trying to gaslight me, and telling me the restaurant has been present for years & they never got such complaints etc. it’s not a tragedy that an small, inexpensive amount of food was unsuccessful, but since I went out of my way to the uncomfortable situation of going back & asking for resolution, I felt I could’ve been treated with more empathy & willingness to resolve it. For example, I don’t think y’all would’ve gone out of business if you put a little bit more meat on this occasion. Im sure your other food is tasty but there’s ways to accept feedback without getting...

Let me make this easy for you.

If you're not Asian, don't plan on traveling to China or countries with numerous Chinese restaurant options, but want a taste of Chinese cuisine, this place might suffice.

However, if you're Asian or have experienced good Chinese food elsewhere and are seeking authentic, flavorful Chinese cuisine, avoid this restaurant—you will be deeply disappointed.

The sweet and sour pork was dry and bland, the Mongolian beef sauce lacked authenticity, the shrimp fried rice had almost no shrimp and was tasteless with undercooked green peas, and the Peking duck was dry with non-crispy skin. The accompanying pancake was too thick, and it lacked the traditional cucumber. The only acceptable dish was the pan-fried dumplings.

While the service was kind and friendly, the food was a significant letdown. Regrettably, this was one of the worst Chinese meals I've had in a long time. Additionally, the food took a long time to arrive, despite the restaurant...

Peking Chinese Restaurant is hands down the best restaurant in all of Zagreb. I've explored countless restaurants across the city, from Croatian cuisine to Lebanese, and nothing compares to the quality and experience here. The food is exceptional, and I've never once had a bad meal. The portion sizes are generous, and the taste is impeccable every single time.

The fried chicken—whether Sichuan-style or with sweet and sour sauce—is my absolute favorite, especially paired with a side of rice. The hake fish appetizer with cabbage salad is also fantastic and not to be missed.

What truly sets Peking Chinese apart is the service. The owners are incredibly welcoming and fluent in English, Chinese, and Croatian. The customer service is consistently top-notch. I come here regularly, sometimes multiple times a week, and I’m always impressed. This is the go-to spot for anyone looking for the best dining...
