Peking Restaurant was recommended by someone. Obviously this place relies mostly on carry-out. They might as well take the 4 dirty tables out. Took my 94 year old friend there and we ate in. No hot tea or any tea for that matter. Told waitress we'd just split a bottle of water. They don't have any drinking glasses so she gave us soup containers to drink out of. She put our food in a to-go bag and literally plopped it in the middle of the table. We pretty much waited on ourselves. Sweet & Sour chicken was just chicken chunks, fried rice and sauce. No onions, green peppers, carrots or pineapple. Cashew Chicken was marginal at best as was the fried rice. Had to go back and ask for soy sauce, duck sauce for my egg roll, and fortune cookies. Felt like we were really putting them out. Not very friendly and need to turn on some heat!!! Won't be going back...

It's a hole-in-the wall type of place, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I've had wonderful food at similar joints.

Instead, it was loaded with carrots and celery and had a couple of pieces of green pepper. Literally, a couple pieces of green pepper. No onions, no hot peppers and no spice to the sauce. The peanuts tasted noticeably stale.
For the price, the portion was fair. The service was friendly. I ordered at the counter and took my food to go.
I did enjoy the pork egg rolls, though they tasted of grease that needed to be changed.
They aren't set up for dining in, and have very little decor in the...
Read moreI absolutely love Peking. It is def the best place in town for carry out Chinese food. People can eat in if they choose but for me it's always takeout. Been eating Chinese food from here for years and will continue to do so, and it's even become a family tradition of ours to get Peking every Christmas. Their Crabragoon is the best around and they go with the triangle shape instead of some of the places that do the flower shape, as you get more filling with the triangle shape. If your looking for great customer service here you must first understand it is a family owned restaurant and that they all collectively work non stop while taking and filling out orders so most the time they try to get you in and out as fast as possible. All in all a very good...
