Really, really enjoyed the peking duck here. You can choose from 2 sizes - we ended up ordering the small and it was the perfect amount of duck for 3 adults. I love how they make use of the duck bones and ask you "soup" or "stir-fry" options. We also ordered the tofu with crab roe which had a mild, comforting flavor. Servers were attentive and accommodated my friend's baby well. Inside is wayyy nicer than what it looks on the outside. Overall this has become one of my top peking duck places in the bay area now!! read more

My parents have been really wanting to try the duck at Boiling Beijing so we were glad we finally got around to it and it didn't disappoint. The place was busy by the time we got there, so plan in advance or get reservations. My favorite dishes were the black pepper steak, cumin lamb, and of course, the duck. I really liked how they also offer to fry or stew the duck bones to your preference after finishing. The duck was juicy and perfectly cooked. Parking is easy since it's the big shopping mall lot. I'd just recommend going early or getting reservations in advance. It seems like it gets busy a lot. read more

We went to try this restaurant because the Peking duck looks good in the pictures. The restaurant is very nicely decorated, giving us a good impression. We were promptly seated and we were supposed to be ordering on the tablet. Since it was our first time, we chose to ask the waiter. We found out that Beijing style is either spicy or sweet!! Yes, the Peking duck was served very ornately, some slices arranged as a blooming flower, most of the meat and the crispy skin served in a duck shaped tureen with candles in the base to keep the meat warm, steaming pancakes in a basket. Now the difference is on the plate that came with sliced cucumbers and slivered onions there is a substantial amount of ...SUGAR! Yup, apparently Beijing people sprinkle sugar on top of their duck! And nope, we skipped this ingredient. We also had green beans ( asked for non spicy ), peppered angus beef cubes and garlic ( different kind of heat, we can do this !) fried tofu plain, and combination fried rice, and crispy fried shrimp. This was a surprise, the shrimp was in the shell and nicely fried, crunchy.... BUT they were totally SWEET!! Sugar sweet, dessert sweet! Nowhere was it mentioned they would be this sweet! There were some interesting dishes we saw on neighboring tables, like the spicy chicken, but since we don't eat that spicy, we didn't order that. They offered hot pot too, but the whole party had to order the hot pot, not just one or two persons. The tables did have wells for the hot pot, so I saw people have to get up to dip and cook their meats in the hotpot broths. Not a good set up. Parking is easily found on the streets, but be warned you need to feed the meters till 8 pm even on Sunday. read more

Fantastic! We had a reservation 630 but didn't get seated until 7! It was CRAZY packed however every item we ordered was fantastic. One of my favorite spots in town. Tip - make a reservation! There was a walk in of 6 and they waited 1.5 hours before finally getting a seat ( and this is after they were nagging the poor host about their wait time ). Duck also has to be preordered read more

Boiling BeiJing - Roast duck - Chinese Near Me - San Bruno, California

This place came highly recommended by a coworker who grew up in Beijing. We were talking about Peking Duck and she said the best Peking Duck in the Bay Area is at Boijing Beijing. Coincidentally, some of my friends were also thinking of coming here so we made it happen on Sunday evening. We pre-ordered the big duck and shared the rainbow salad, bok choy with morel mushrooms, sweet and sour shrimp and sweet and sour whole fish. The Peking Duck was indeed the best I've had in the Bay Area (it's crispy, rich but somehow not greasy). You get the traditional crepes (as opposed to the Bao in most places) and accompaniments. They also made a great broth with the duck bones that served as an excellent consommé. The rest of the dishes were also good - I would order that shrimp and rainbow salad again for sure. Service was OK and the restaurant looks recently remodeled. There were five of us and we spent about $55 each - an incredible value for the meal. Highly recommended!!! read more

The good news: Amazing place to go if you like Peking duck. One of the best dishes they serve here. Other dishes like honey walnut prawn and fish were delicious. The bad news: this place is a war zone on weekends, even with a reservation, get ready to wait. We waited 30 mins. The service was fairly decent but they are extremely busy. Reserving makes it a bit better and you can order a duck read more

Boiling BeiJing - 自制烤鸭饼Homemade rost duck Pancake(10~12) - Chinese Near Me - San Bruno, California

I think my experience with the food is a little mixed but overall I loved how kitschy this place is. I feel like the interior is the quintessential Chinese American restaurant interior of a certain vintage. If the vibe inside wasn't so Chinese fr, it'd feel like a caricature. But this place is super packed with Asians. And hearing them talk, yeah mostly Chinese. Like 95%. The tables with non-Chinese people were accompanied by Chinese people. Anyway, I was surprised. I was like ok I see you, boiling Beijing. You're legit. What brought me here was the Peking duck. I've had Peking duck but I've never tried hunting the dish down. It was the kind of thing I ate as a kid if an adult ordered it. But I've recently been trying to find good Peking duck that comes served with haw jelly. Other than Palo Alto's Imperial Treasure, this place also serves it that way. And similarly you have to call to make a table reservation (no online system) and duck reservation. The pancakes/wraps taste better here. The duck meat was more tender and moist here, but the portion for the same price was much larger at imperial treasure. Also the cuts at imperial treasure were nicer/cleaner, and you get the table side experience. I do appreciate how boiling Beijing kept the duck on a warmer. It actually worked unlike the steamer of pancakes/wraps which sat on hot water that quickly went cold. I appreciate the effort. The soup tasted like msg and came out very quickly after our duck. It was pretty salty and had very little noodles and vegetables. Imperial treasure is better. We also ordered the oyster crab steamed egg dish. I think it sounded interesting but you can definitely pass on it. The egg was a bit spongy and overdone. The service was fast and friendly, they seem well staffed and efficient. The only hiccup was they forgot our hanging bread but they let us cancel it so it was fine. I won't stop going to imperial treasure but I definitely want to come back to try other dishes and see how those stack up. read more

Came to Boiling Beijing again recently for Mother's Day. We got a ton of items - their cold noodle, fish, Peking duck, vegetables, appetizers, and more. Everything was delicious. Standout was definitely the Peking duck - super tasty, generous portions, and they prepared the duck 3 ways, including a delicious soup with the bones. Price was very reasonable given quality and quantity. Service was friendly and prompt despite the restaurant being absolutely packed for dinner. It did get pretty loud inside, but that's to be expected given how full it was. Lots of large tables and families eating together. read more

We called ahead to reserve for a 7pm seating (the last seating for Peking Duck) for a table of 5. It was so so busy in there with a lot of people crowded around the hostess table. You need to check in and let them know you arrived so they can put you in the queue to be seated. Even though we arrived at 6:45 we didn't get seated until 7:15 (aka no point in arriving early if you have a reservation). The Peking Duck is what they are famous for and deservedly so. It is so so good and the presentation is beautiful. Skin is crispy, meat is tender, wrappers are thin. They give you an option to have the Duck remains (bones and left over meat) to be made into a soup or stir fry and we opted for the soup. It was so clean and healthy tasting. One of the best places for Peking duck in the bay. A must try read more

Came here after hearing about the Peking Duck being one of the best in the Bay Area. Pre-order the day before. The duck came last but it was definitely good. We ordered crepe pancakes but didn't realize it already came with some. They carve the Peking duck and serve the skin and meat nicely on a platter with nice condiments but perhaps needed a little more salt. They also offer you the option to have the bones and can order as a soup or pan fried for a small price. We misunderstood what the server was asking and ordered them fried with hot chillies...it was tasty and crispy but next time we would try as a soup. Restaurant was crowded so glad we made a reservation so seated right away. Tried some other tasty dishes, too. The cumin lamb was very good, and the pepper beef and salt pepper fried chicken wings were pretty good, too. A little pricey ($60/person without drinks) but some unique northern Chinese dishes. Would likely come back again for the Peking Duck but might try to compare to a few other places known for theirs, too. Also, was curious about a hanging pancake dish that several other tables ordered!! read more

I came specifically for the crispy red bean rice cake, and it did not disappoint. The outer layer had that soft, glutinous rice texture, and it tasted freshly fried in clean oil. The chicken meatball soup, hotpot, and sliced tofu also all met expectations. This is easily one of the better Chinese restaurants in the Bay Area. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes from the menu. read more

One of the most consistently solid Chinese spots I've been to in the area. The food quality is impressive across the board -- everything tastes fresh, well-balanced, and thoughtfully prepared. You can tell they don't cut corners. The flavors are authentic but still refined, not overly greasy or heavy like a lot of places. Portions are generous, making it great for sharing with a group. Service was smooth and attentive without being overbearing, and the overall atmosphere is lively yet comfortable -- perfect for both casual dinners and hosting friends. This is the kind of place you can confidently bring people to and know it'll deliver every time. Definitely a go-to spot. read more

This is one of the best SF restaurants for Peking Duck. It also has some very delicious dishes like the shrimp, beef, and sweet and sour fish. Frankly, all the dishes are great.

A group of friends came here during the weekend for lunch. One of them heard Boiling Beijing had the best duck around and had been dying to try it. The service was polite and quick, taking our orders and tending to our table as needed. The decor and atmosphere felt lavish but not overly fancy as the energy was more casual than formal. It wasn't too crowded when we got there. Only a few families and groups were present, so we were seated quickly. We took some time to look over the menu to figure out what else on top of the peking duck we wanted. The food came out by dish fairly quickly and in a linear fashion, which was great for the progression of the meal. We ordered the Roast Duck, Dry Cooked String Beans w Tofu, Griddle Cooked Cabbage w/ Pork, Beijing Style Louis Root Glutinous Rice in Osmanthus Date Sauce, and some Steamed Rice. The Roast Duck was perfect, and included sides, wraps, and sauce. The duck was juicy, crispy, and a delight to eat. The presentation was also super cute - it was on a two level platter was was a duck figurine. The the first level was a small flame to keep the food on the second level warm. Would recommend 10/10. The string beans and cabbage dishes were solid and came out well. The tofu that came with the string beans was super tasty and I thought was the star ingredient of that dish. The Louis Root Glutinous Rice was interesting, but I probably wouldn't order again since flavor wasn't to my liking. Overall, I had a memorable experience eating the duck here and I'd come back again just for that dish! read more

Boiling Beijing has always been my favorite restaurant in the bay for peking duck. I recently came back from Shenzhen and their duck is definitely comparable, just not size or price wise. It's hard to find an authentic Chinese restaurant that serves their peking duck with haw jelly and mandarin pancakes( steamed thin wraps) as most Chinese restaurants offer only steamed buns. For a party of three, we preordered the large duck a day before (make sure you call ahead) and on the day of, we got seated immediately even though there were people before us. The duck was served before we even had a chance to order anything else. The duck skin was crispy, juicy, flavorful and it was as good as I had remembered. The price between the small and the large was only a $10 difference and it didn't seem that much bigger. Instead of the cumin dish, we decided on the soup and I have to say, the flavors weren't as bold as it used to be and was quite bland. There was much less veggies, vermicelli and more liquid than before. I recommend the cumin lamb from previous visits and the crispy shrimp, which had a tangy and sweet glaze to it. Very similar to their sweet and sour whole fish. It was fried perfectly so you could eat the whole shrimp with the shell on. I saw a lot of people order the hanging pancake and I'm not sure if we were missing something, but it was not worth $18. It was neither hanging when it arrived nor did it have any appeal to it. It was a bit sweet and tasted like the flakey outer layer on a wifey cake. Before ordering, I didn't even see anyone ordering a dish to dip it with either. There was a language barrier since I don't speak mandarin and not everyone spoke English so I didn't even bother asking before ordering... my own fault I suppose. I much prefer roti at other restaurants, and would definitely skip it next time. I highly suggest their duck, cumin lamb and crispy shrimp though! read more

Overall Peking duck was delicious although I had better ones in SF and in China. The peppered beef with garlic was very tasty and would order it again. Stir fried shredded pancakes was not to my liking. I wouldn't order this dish. For vegetables we tried Pea sprouts and they were pretty good. I'd try this restaurant again and be seated away from the corner wall The noise was overwhelmingly amplified and was not very pleasant. Three and a half star. read more

Ordered peking duck takeway (called 2 days in advance) for Christmas day pickup and I genuinely feel swindled by how little food was given for a $90 order. I used to live in NYC and used to order whole roasted duck from a couple of different places (Chinatown NYC) for years. On average, I would get 2-3 meals out of the actual duck meat/skin and another 1-2 meals from the duck bones they gave with the orders for $60-80 (shoutout to Hay Hay Roasted miss you guys so much). Boiling BeiJing advertises the "Large Duck" to feed "2-4 people" which is absolutely not true. My partner and I were able to finish the whole order by ourselves in 1 sitting. The order comes with 20 wraps, hoisin sauce, some poorly cut up green onions and cucumbers, and 2 chinese radish soups that includes a couple of duck bone. From pictures, it looks like they take more care in presentation when you eat inside their restaurant. I guess there aren't many other restaurants doing peking duck in this immediate area so they are able to charge the prices they do and people still order from them. I for one will now drive further to SF Chinatown to hopefully find a better place for value and taste. The one positive is that the duck skin was good and decently crispy even for takeaway, but not worth the price we paid for our meal. read more

My friend raved about this place, so I knew I had to take my family here to try it out! Made a reservation on Thu for Fri night at 6:30, was not a problem - and emphasized I wanted to order the infamous duck. It's QR code ordering, so I took care of it for my mom. Probably over-ordered since everything looked so good. I ordered: - Infamous duck, with the wraps and duck soup (duck is done in 2 ways): SO GOOD. Skin is super crispy and light. - Shredded potatoes with vinegar: cuts the grease of other dishes, very nice and tart. - Dried cooked string beans: always a hit at any Chinese restaurant. - Sweet and sour whole fish: wow - fried perfectly, not hard at all. For someone like me who isn't a huge fan of sweet and sour, this one has a very nice balance and is very enjoyable. - Black pepper Angus beef: upgraded to a larger size, very meaty and seasoned well - Fried diced chicken with chili (not pictured): I thought this was good, had good heat. - Chinese cauliflower: my mom complained this was spicy, but I thought it was fine. - Beef with green onions: I'm running out of adjectives, just know this was GOOD too Definitely a great hidden gem in the Peninsula and I will be back! read more

Boiling Beijing requires reservation not only for the guests but also for the Peking Duck. The service is a definite miss. They seemed to be extremely busy and did not have enough utensils at times. For example, there were 5 of us and they brought only two glasses of water. However, you don't come to this restaurant for the ambiance or the service, and the food lived up to its billing. The duck was delicious. I also really liked their green vegetables (that were cooked in garlic) and their cauliflower dry pot. They also had a pepper beef dish, which was excellent. So overall, a very nice meal and I would definitely return. read more

We made a reservation for a large party for a later lunch and they were able to snag us a big table with a lazy Susan. Overall we were happy with the food and would definitely come back at some point! We ordered two small ducks for the table and I thought it was pretty good! I guess the duck skin could have been a bit crispier but duck is usually pretty good because it's so oily. It went well with the thin pancakes that were served with them. I added some of the sauce to top it off. The duck bone soup that came with it was quite nice. It was a milky white broth with some duck bones and noodles. The broth perhaps was a tiny bit too salty but otherwise good and felt wholesome to eat. The spiced chicken is incredibly spicy! I liked it a lot but found myself having to pace my bites. Even one bite of chicken was sending me to spice town and the spice was lingering a lot! Yang Zhou fried rice was decent, maybe a little dry. This one did have shrimp in it though so I took them out. The mapo tofu was nice. Very saucy. I recommend eating this with white rice. The jalapeño pork belly was also not bad. A lot of jalapeño in here! The tong hao (veggie) was okay. I think this could have used a bit more flavor and salt. Service was okay - they were nice but a little slow in getting us some basics like napkins, spoons, bowls, etc. The napkins were also incredibly thin so you need a lot! read more

Came back for the duck this time with the fam and we enjoyed it. We preordered a large duck that came served sliced and then presented on a plate like a painting. Came with pancakes, scallions, cucumbers. Was also able to have the option to get the bones stir fried or soup. We chose the soup and it was flavorful. Ordered everything we did last time and this time added the large prawns (crunchy, sweet and good) and the eggplant and beans (I'd skip this one). They get busy so best to make a reservation. There's a service button on the app so it's nice to get their attention that way. Menus are QR code only. read more

I've come here now three times for their Peking duck and it's one of my favorites places. The duck skin is perfect, the meat is tender, and the pancakes are very thin! The rainbow skin dish is a yummy cold mung bean noodle dish with eggs, cucumber, spam, tofu skin, and fungus. It's a go to for me every time I visit. We tried the spicy lamb hot pot and it comes with lamb ribs in a spicy broth. I want to try that next time with the thinly sliced lamb, tofu, and noodles like a true hot pot experience. You order on a QR code, so it's simple. Definitely book a duck early ahead of time and prepare for a wait if you didn't book a reservation. I've even seen them pretty busy for lunch! read more

The duck is amazing! They have really thin wraps with plum sauce, veggies, and thin sliced crispy duck skin. The bones are also used in a rich and hearty duck soup. The dish does need to be preordered ahead of time and it is very much worth it! Most of the other dishes were really solid too from fried chicken and garlic beef. This was a much appreciated family Chinese style restaurant that stands a level above the rest. The only knock on it is that the service can be slow since it is so packed so we had to flag down waiters for stuff. read more

Peking duck with tortilla wraps: this place features the wraps instead of the bread, it is light and not too filling. the duck is presented on a slanted board with not too gamy flavor. it comes with scallions Shrimp: crunchy taste that you can eat the entire shell Black angus beef cubes: tender beef with mushrooms, paired best with rice to not have a salty flavor hit your throat. String beans: Nothing fancy. Greens to accompany the dinner. Pork liver MALA: the spices are not joke, not for the weak. it can be washed in the tea if it is too spicy. Chicken wings: excellent spot for wings, their breading is a little heavier than San Tung in the city. It came out pipping hot even after 5-10 minutes. Tip: you have to reserve the peking duck in advance. service is efficient. there is a private room with a couple tables. read more

It's funny, I've always passed by Boiling Beijing and it never strikes me as busy. Then, I see it featured on a Youtube video for their Peking Duck dinner...so of course we had to make a reservation afterwards. Walking in on that Saturday evening though, whoa! It was PACKED. People were vying for a table or just asking if ducks were still available so I highly recommend calling to reserve one if that's what you want to try here. The duck meal comes in 3 courses - 1st: crispy skin served with sugar, 2nd: Sliced meat with skin to wrap in pancakes with scallions, cucumbers, and plum sauce and 3rd: (your choice), carcass to be used as a soup or carcass stir fried. We went with the soup. Actually, almost every table did. We also added a mushu pork (be aware, Northern style doesn't come with pancakes), a cold sesame noodle, and the stir fried cabbage. Everything was excellent and it was just enough for 5 people. The reason for a star deduction was due to service. Serving utensils (including bowls for the soup) weren't brought over initially and when we asked, the passing waitress scolded us that it was coming (it didn't). There were also other interactions that were just a bit...abrasive. I'm not terribly surprised but hey, it can affect your feelings regardless. Would recommend the experience overall! The duck course was a very reasonable $79.99 and all the other entrees were about $18-20 a piece. read more

On the Peking duck hunt after having Z&Y a few weeks ago, and I'm looking for someplace closer to home without the hassle of navigating SF Chinatown parking. Boiling Beijing piqued my curiosity when I read that Yelpers felt that this was the most Chinese restaurant they've ever been in, including ones in China. I called to reserve a small duck for Sunday night dinner and arrived with three friends as the restaurant opened. A half hour later the place was completely full of families and other large parties. When I saw that the large order of duck was only $10 more than the small duck, I asked if I could upgrade, but wasn't not allowed because all the ducks had already been reserved. I wanted to try a few menu items such as the knife cut noodles, shrimp and chive dumplings, and the wonton soup, but all these items were unavailable. Enjoyed the combination chow mein and hot and sour soup we had instead. Also the green beans were perfectly crisp, and the beef perfectly tender. Uneven service, but with food this good, I will come back - especially for the Peking duck. read more

Wow, this place was so good! I called 30 minutes ahead on a Tuesday night and was able to snag a table for six. I ordered the duck in advance but made the mistake of not realizing there were two sizes. If you do this, be sure to specify small or large, mine was already being made when I got there, so I couldn't change it. That said, the food came out super fast and everything was delicious. a lot of dishes have chili in them. The ordering system is on your phone, so double-check before you submit; we accidentally ordered two fried rices. We got the hot pot and the Peking duck. The hot pot was fine but nothing special, so I probably wouldn't recommend it. The duck, however, was amazing. They ask how you want the duck bones prepared, either as soup or fried with salt and pepper. I was confused at first about how to eat them fried, but it ended up being the best decision. You just nibble at the meat around the bones -- perfect beer food or a snack. read more

My neighbor invited my wife and I for dinner at Boiling Beijing. Arriving at the place, you can tell right off the bat that ambiance was not at the top of the list. But the service and food were way up there. For the food, the star was the Peking Duck (I wonder why they don't call it Beijing duck?). You wrap the crispy skin and tender meat in paper thin pancakes instead of the usual buns. The bones were used to make a duck soup with invisible noodles - very comforting. The string beans with eggplant and the cauliflower dishes were also up there in the scrumptious department. I would recommend this place for the food and for large family gatherings. Don't expect a romantic setting because it can get noisy and conversation can be difficult. read more

I'm finally writing my review for this restaurant after a year, but I never forgotten about this place because of the duck. The duck skin with the crepe is so delicious and crispy with the hoisin sauce. The whole duck takes about an hour to cook and depending on how many people want to order it. The Beijing sweet & sour fish was alright. It was a little too salty for me. After you finish the duck, they take the bones and make a soup out of it. The soup was super creamy from all the bones. My favorite is definitely the duck, but def get there early bc the tables fills up fast. read more

Excellent Peking duck served with thin pancake and choice of stir-fry veggies or soup! The soup was rich and brothy like hot-pot style! So comforting. We waited for the duck since we didn't order in advance or make reservations. But we didn't mind since that's only thing on item we wanted.

The service was brutal, but the food was decent. Had reservations, Christmas Eve, Wednesday 7:30 pm for a table of 3, only to find out there was still a wait, and tables with reservation times of 7 pm had yet to be seated. What we got: - Small Peking Duck ~ We called in advance for this as part of our reservation. The duck was underwhelming as it was served already carved. Served on a candle-warmed plate, this duck was buttery and juicy- not overly greasy. This place offers either stir-fried duck carcass or duck soup with the remaining carving. We chose the duck soup option, which never arrived until we realized it was missing during payment of the tab. - Dry-cooked string beans ~ Great for the table. On the saltier side. Needs rice to pair with. - Beijing Style Sweet and Sour Fish Filet ~ THIS. This dish requires a 20-minute wait and was the last item to arrive, but it was well worth it. Presented well and served saucy, this dish paired perfectly with rice. Despite being full, I found myself going back for more! The sauce was sweet yet tangy. The fish was crispy yet soft. Highly recommend! - Beijing Style Crispy Fried Shrimp ~ Crispy indeed and well flavored! With the flavor profile of honey walnut shrimp, this was a very solid dish. Shrimp fried to perfection, even the shell is edible! Highly recommend! All in all, this place was very beautiful, serving up traditional Beijing-style cuisine. However, the service is questionable. Despite parties being late, they were still able to be seated 30 minutes past their reservation time. Service was also chaotic and hectic, potentially due to short staffing. Hostesses would disappear, leaving the reception area empty, causing incoming customers to wait eons to check in. Not only would the hostess go missing, but the waitstaff would disappear with our teapot and not return with our tea. TLDR: Would not return for the Peking duck, but maybe other dishes. My condolences to the girl who flew in from Australia with her luggage only to stand in the lobby and wait over an hour, despite having a reservation. read more
