This is not your average Chinese restaurant. It's more family style portions so every entree is made for atleast 2-3 people. They are one of the rare restaurants in Atlanta that serves Peking duck carved tableside, and it's so delicious !!! They give you the skin and tender meat and then use the rest for a duck soup or stir fry. Atmosphere is really nice and they have private rooms for big parties or business meeting dinners. Highly recommend and service is really nice. They have their own parking lot but can get busy and crowded so be mindful read more

Hands-down, my friends and I think Chef's House has the best Peking duck in Atlanta. We had a party of 5, and Peking Duck with 3 other dishes was plenty. PEKING DUCK - $43.95 It's the same 2-course meal where they will bring the whole roasted duck and then slice in front of you, then serve w/ the crepe wraps, thinly sliced onions and cucumbers, and hoisin sauce. The crispy skin is the best part, yum! For the 2nd course, we did the salt-n-pepper stir fry ... next time we'll just do the regular stir fry. As you can see from the photo, there really wasn't that much meat in the stir fry, everything felt pretty charred, and what meat was there was super salty. The first course was the highlight! FYI they charge $5 if you order more wraps. JAPANESE TOFU CLAY POT - $19.95 This was so delicious - they use silken tofu so it just melts in your mouth. The sauce includes minced pork too - very good w/ rice! I loved this dish! STIR FRIED YU CHOY - $18.95 We wanted some greens - I thought it was just ok. BRAISED CHICKEN W/ GINGER - $22.95 Good flavor but it's boned chicken and there are also tiny bone bits throughout ... we found it stressful to eat b/c you really have to be careful. I wouldn't order this again. Overall great spot for family-style dining. Very extensive menu - almost overwhelming! FYI they charge $5 for tea. Our server was very helpful and honest w/ his recommendations - thank you! read more

We went to Chef's House for dinner with some friends and had a great experience. Our server was excellent--attentive, quick, and friendly. He even packaged our to-go food for us. The restaurant has a cute interior with a main dining area and private rooms, and everything was very clean. We didn't have to wait long to order, and our food came out quickly. We ordered a variety of dishes, though I don't remember all the names. * Peking duck * Stir-fried beef * Pork * Fish * Vegetables Everything was flavorful, and the portions were generous--perfect for sharing family-style. My favorite was the sweet rice cake dessert, though I don't know its exact name. I highly recommend coming here with family or friends, as the round tables make for great conversation. The food is delicious, the portions are big, and the prices are worth it. I've eaten here multiple times and always enjoy coming back! read more

This spot is truly memorable as mostly everything that we ordered tasted so good! Ironically enough, the Peking Duck was my least favorite but the table-side duck carving was awesome to watch. My absolute favorite was the Jellyfish Mixed w/ Chicken- such a beautiful presentation with a lovely balance of fresh flavors. Mind you, this is a cold dish, but still delicious. Everything else was pretty much super delicious as well, Loved their spicy potatoes. Also, their fried rice is very good! We were lucky enough to eat the egg tarts fresh out of the oven, and they tasted so authentic- just like how it is in HK. I look forward to coming back again :) read more

Very popular and said to be the go to place for Peking duck in Georgia. If that's the case, I'm happy enough. It's not NY, but it's good. The duck is nice and fatty with crisp skin. I can see why this place is recommended. We got the duck 2 ways and opted for soup. The soup has ginger which helps cut the rich fattiness of the duck, and it's great as a soup because ginger itself has a warming/hot feel to it. Outside of the duck, with 2 large menus, it was hard to decide what else to order. They have many options with pictures, and it all looked so good! I didn't personally choose anything I ate, but everything tasted nice. The only thing I have of note is that the tofu from their A104 crispy tofu with salt and pepper pork ribs could be done better. The breading for the tofu was a lot and not crispy. Flavor was good though. They have private rooms for parties that would prefer that, but they stick out from the rest of the dining room. The exterior of those rooms don't match the interior of the rest of the place probably because it was an afterthought addition that wasn't renovated very well. read more

This is a place that my sister and her family and friends would visit regularly. I was really surprised by the low rating. Take it from an Asian that this is a fantastic restaurant. Many dishes to choose from and time to first dish was very good despite a busy evening. Yes - 2 huge menus; one for those who love spicy dishes, one for regular folks like myself. On the very last page, there are dishes at the bottom of the page without photos. Don't skip them. Overall, there's wok hey in their cooking so I'm willing to bet their fried dishes will be good. Like everyone else, we had the Peking duck 2 ways. For the bones, we picked the stir fried version with ginger and green onions. The duck was carved by the table side and that's some good entertainment. Very skillful carving. Almost every piece has skin on it. We opted for the usual thin skin instead of the buns because we had other dishes. Sauce for the Peking duck was good too. Ideally, this dish can be served 3 ways. Skin only, meat only, and the bones. The Japanese tofu clay pot is tasty. The simple yau choy with garlic is full of wok hey. The vegetables could have been cut smaller. I thought the stalks were too big. Their version of walnut shrimp is perfect for me. I've tasted many versions of this dish. Most are too sweet for me. The shrimps are big and bouncy and doesn't not taste of sodium bicarbonate (secret of bouncy shrimps). The last dish we ordered was the seafood soup with fish maw. Again tasty and well balanced. Every dish was good. I would recommend chef's house Peking duck to anyone in the area. Best if you have a party of 4 or more. read more

Stopped by Sunday night for dinner and there was plenty of seats available. The Peking Duck was delicious and they cut it up at your table. The leftovers are then used to make another dish and you can choose from three options. It is a really good price! Also ordered Pork Intestine dish and the food was a little salty but good with jasmine tea and rice. The service was quick and didn't have to wait long for food. read more

Whenever we're craving real Chinese food -- whether it's comforting Cantonese dishes or bold, spicy Sichuan flavors -- Chef House is always our first thought. The food is consistently delicious, freshly made, and full of authentic flavor. Most of the servers have been working here for nearly a decade, and they always make us feel so welcome and at home. The portions are generous and perfect for sharing with family or friends. We always leave happy and satisfied -- this place truly never disappoints! read more

Chef's House - Peking Duck - Peking Duck (2 course) - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Since its opening in June 2019, Yelp reviews for Chef's House Peking Duck have been all over the place. This restaurant is polarizing. I'm surprised this place has a three-star average rating after 110 reviews. Our experience was great. I thought the food was outstanding and service was very good. Maybe we went on a good night. Maybe a lot of the bad reviews were left by people who didn't know what to order. Maybe Chef's House has gotten better. I first learned about this place years ago when I happened to catch one of my friends' Instagram stories showing video of the restaurant's Peking Duck tableside preparation. While the tableside prep and dish presentation help make this place stand out from a lot of other Chinese restaurants in metro Atlanta, my friend thought the food tasted sub-par and left a two-star review. She did think the service was good though. A couple of my Taiwanese-American friends, whose food opinions I trust, like this place and bring their families here. It's one of their go-to spots. So, from just a couple examples of opinions of people I know, it's a mixed bag, consistent with the reviews. My opinion: Five stars. Definitely at least a solid four. Chef's House used to be Kung Fu Kitchen. Kung Fu Kitchen was open for only a brief period beginning in May 2018: https://bit.ly/41K3ee3. I noticed Yelper Wing K's photos of Chef's House, Kung Fu Kitchen, and Royal China (also in Duluth: https://bit.ly/433RKmq). The photos appear to connect them with the businesses in some way (e.g., owner, staff): https://bit.ly/3pKyoED. For example, they have original menu images and in-kitchen photos. It wouldn't surprise me if all three restaurants are connected in some way. The restaurant concepts look similar, from the nicer-looking interiors, furniture, and tableware to the big, glossy, picture menus that more resemble magazines than traditional restaurant menus (Food Terminal is the same way). I like the picture menus because they make ordering easy. This isn't your typical Cantonese joint. While Peking Duck is the draw, Chef's House is an "authentic" Chinese restaurant, like Royal China and others in the Atlanta area, with a big menu that offers much more including high-dollar items. They have two menus, in fact. I refer to them as "Menu A" and "Menu B" because of the numbering. Menu A has dishes A01 to A137. Menu B has dishes B01 to B97. When I asked one of the staff what the difference between the two menus was, he said one was regular and one was spicy. That actually wasn't the case, strictly speaking, but Menu B did contain the spicy dishes. And they have specials/off-menu items too. Chef's House serves Chinese cuisine you'll be hard-pressed to find elsewhere in Georgia. A few examples include A28. Braised Abalone, Goosefoot, and Sea Cucumber in Abalone Sauce ($108 for one), A70. Braised Soft Shell Turtle with Chicken (special price), and B35. Lu Ding Ji Shrimp and Frog Charcoal Hot Pot ($48.95). Below is what five of us got: A01. Peking Duck - two courses sliced and soup ($43.95 first course + $15.00 second course) A48. Grilled Beef with Cumin Garlic and Mushrooms ($19.95) A93. Japanese Tofu Clay Pot ($18.95) B24. Sizzling Intestine Clay Pot ($23.95) B54. Spicy Chicken in Grill Pot ($21.95) Unlisted. Kōngxīncài (空心菜) in Mandarin / Ong Choy (蕹菜) in Cantonese - water spinach (price unknown) Like they do in China, Chef's House uses the same duck to serve multiple courses. Here, the first course is sliced meat with Chinese pancakes, spring onion, cucumber, and tianmian sauce (sweet bean sauce) and the second course is bone-in duck soup with tofu and greens. I recommend everything we had listed above. All of the ingredients were fresh and every dish was well-executed and delicious. This place is legit. For something different, I suggest checking out the "Grill Pots," B51-B58. Super tasty, and fun presentation. I loved the Sizzling Intestine Clay Pot. For me, I believe it eclipses the intestines at La Mei Zi on Buford Highway for best Chinese/Taiwanese intestines dish in Atlanta. So good. Finally, bonus points to any Chinese restaurant that serves my favorite Asian veggie, Ong Choy. Not only that, but they make an excellent version too. This is a great spot for families and groups. They have several large tables with Lazy Susans and private rooms. One of my friends came here for a baby shower This restaurant caters to and is popular with the local Chinese community. As I was seated, our server kept talking to me in Mandarin even after I told her I didn't speak Chinese. Pay in cash and get a discount. Note: I'm leaving this for the end of my review because I normally don't pay attention to nor put much stock in restaurant inspections (though admittedly, I probably should). Chef's House failed inspections in 2021 and 2022. They scored an 85 B on their latest inspection on 7/24/2023: https://bit.ly/3o7rhFW. I couldn't see into the kitchen, but this restaurant felt very clean to me. read more

We were in town for an unplanned visit. When we had down time, one of friends, who has been a local here for a decade, took us to this restaurant as one of his highest recommendations. Boy this place did not disappoint. Every dish we got there was excellent, but by far, their infamous Peking duck was the crowning jewel. There is an employee that will bring out a table to set up to carve the duck. The first part of this dish is sooo succulent. It pairs perfectly with some slightly sweetened plum sauce, cucumber, and rice paper for you to roll everything up into. What is not used is pan seared with onions and peppers. It is well seasoned and piping hot, somewhat reminiscent of salt and pepper squid. It was extremely tasty. As far as service goes, I usually never expect anything from Chinese restaurants. But I was pleasantly surprised this time. They were constantly at the table checking in and clearing the table. Overall it was a decent experience for a moderate price. Food was excellent and makes me dream of more! read more

I love Peking duck and was so excited when I found a restaurant near ATL that specializes in it. I've been here twice now and the duck is consistent. The Peking duck comes in 2 courses, the first is cut tableside and served either with flat pancakes or fluffy buns, the second is a stir fry or soup with the remaining carcass of the duck. I've tried both the stir fry and the soup and while I prefer the soup, both are forgettable- the first course is what matters here. Between the pancakes and the buns, I definitely prefer the buns. If you run out, you can order more a la carte. We've also tried other dishes here: hot and sour soup, beef tripe in chili oil, honey walnut shrimp, salt and pepper shrimp, cauliflower. I wouldn't recommend any of these items- the soup was not sour and the shrimp was covered in hard taro crisps that made it impossible to enjoy the shrimp. Maybe other items on their menu may be better? But I'll be returning for the Peking duck! read more

Wow. This place is amazing. It reminds me of eating in San Francisco Chinatown. We ordered Peking Duck, Shrimp Walnut and Salt and Pepper Tofu/Ribs. The service was great and they stay on top of things. The ambiance is typical Chinese restaurants. Btw. They gave you sweet threat soup at the end of the meals. Will return for sure read more

You can see from my reviews that I don't give bad reviews often. First of all, I've had real Peking Duck before in Beijing. Second of all, the service was absolutely atrocious. I went with my family and my parents are native Mandarin speakers so I don't think it was any discrimination or miscommunication. There is a mandatory 18% tip already included so the server kept pushing us to order more food. My brother wasn't even hungry so we didn't want to over-order (which we still did). And we got charged for dishes we didn't even order or receive? So ridiculous and the staff were rude when we wanted to get it fixed? Come here if you want to pay for food you didn't order! My parents said the Peking Duck was vastly overrated and the color and crispiness wasn't right. Hopefully it was an off day, but it says a lot if the off day is that bad. Portions were tiny like we barely got any. They don't have tap/cup of waters here so they charge per water bottle. The dishes I tried were nothing to write home about. Vegetable dishes were bland, except for the stir fried cauliflower which was decent. Everything is overrated. But my main complaint is the service. I will never step foot in here again and I recommend you don't either. read more

Chef's House - Peking Duck - Don't recommend - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

I have been wanting to try this place and haven't gotten a chance. Good thing my foodie friend finally brought me here. We came here mid week for lunch and it was quiet. Looks like they only have one menu (no lunch), but lots of variety and with pictures! They have lots of delicacies such as birds nest, abalone, etc. We came here for the duck and we got it 2 ways. Obviously, we got the Peking duck and we got the soup (S) for the second course. You can also choose a salt and pepper stir fry instead of the soup. The duck carving is table side. I think our last is new at it since she cut a lot of the meat with the skin. However, I love the presentation and it was so delicious with the pancake and the crunch of cucumber/green onion plus the hoisin sauce. Duck is a little fatty which made it so juicy. The soup was so rich and the silky tofu and the bitter mustard greens really made tasty. I really enjoyed everything. The restaurant is large with many private rooms and the bathroom was clean. I would come back and try the stir fry next time. We (3 of us) were full with the duck 2 ways. read more

Sometimes a nice restaurant with an extensive pictures menu isn't the one that makes their dishes like the descriptive artwork nor prepares them as shown. Ok, so it was a novel way to make a selection after opening two giant menus full of pictures. The Chef's House host wasn't that much help when we asked specifically for vegetarian dishes. He did say one giant menu is for spicy dishes... We did find and ordered by the colorful pictures; like Okra and mushrooms and tofu and a few others that after having placed our orders and taken to the kitchen, that lo and behold what we had ordered was not available. We were also brought a cucumber dish we had not ordered...so it was a confusing start at the Chef's House in Duluth. However, the egg flower soup was thick and plentyful..note here that one individual bowl is good size for two persons. We liked the pork that was a take on the SS pork we are accustomed to. This was a fun choice. The Tofu with Chinese cabbage is not at all as shown on the menu but it was a great tofu with brown sauce big bowl. An even bigger bowl was the spicy general Tso like fish filets in a hot broth with the standard fare of vegetables. We also liked a glassy wide noodle spicy dish. The freshly cut Okra was actually a good eats. The dark mushrooms was clearly not made as we had expected, but we relented and made it part of our meal. Do not ask for water because they do not do water but they will sell you bottled water. The Chrysanthemum hot tea made up for water and we paid for it. The fragrant white steamed rice was ample for all the dishes. Chef's House baffles you with artsy pictures and we agreed that some that we ordered had good taste. We asked for take home boxes and I think we learned from this experience that a simple menu would have been much more brilliant. read more

I have been coming here for over a year now. It's definitely been more than just a handful of times and this place is where my family would include in the agenda! Chef's House is a little ways from my place if that gives any context of how favored this place is in my family. Upon walking inside, you are welcomed by the sheer amount of tables they have. When it gets busy - you'll definitely hear it as there are so many tables without much divider / background music to tune out to. There are 2-3 party rooms that seat upwards of 20-28 people from what I remember. We had called in a few weeks prior for those rooms. Service was impeccable. The staff is really attentive from afar which appeals to me because there are experiences that I had where the wait staff is too overbearing or disappeared somewhere, but at Chef's House - it was definitely in that happy medium zone. They are very attentive and will check on your table if it looks like you need something/someone. Now to the main point of any review - the FOOD! As many times that I have gone here, I still have not had the chance to really venture to the menu's extent that I would like to. It's not because that my party and I are picky eaters; it's because the menus (yes there are 2 separate menus) are simply huge! I love the variety, but I will say that I have not found anything that I disliked in all my visits. The the staples when ordering is definitely the Peking Duck (2 course - I always get the salt and pepper bones) and Hong Kong Style Lobster. Table side Peking Duck presentation complemented with perfectly cooked dishes from here is a highlight that I've had throughout my food ventures on the East coast. There is a reason that my family and I keep coming here time and time again. We can have a good meal and venture out more into the menu to whatever we crave that day. The staff completes the dining experience with their keen attention to detail and service. read more

We got the Peking duck, and it did not disappoint! The presentation, juicy/crispy duck, fresh veggies, perfect sauce and pancakes. It was all perfect.

The jelly fish salad was also perfect--the sauce and cilantro and peanuts! LOVE!! read more

Came here for my birthday a couple of weeks ago, and while we've been here before and it was okay, I was sorely disappointed with the food this time around. While the duck was good (this is what they're known for), everything else was not so great. Vegetable dishes didn't seem seasoned at all, the beef dishes (hot pot and with vegetables) seemed overcooked and were nothing to brag about at all, and the noodles we ordered seemed to be a little undercooked. We had a total of 13 dishes and other than the duck, all were extremely subpar. People in my party could speak Mandarin and Cantonese, so the service was fine. Our bill came to almost $600 so we were quite disappointed with this restaurant. We won't come here again and I highly suggest you don't come here either. If you do, make sure you keep up with what you order and the cost of each dish. read more

There aren't a lot of places around here to get Peking duck, so I was intrigued. But the food here didn't just meet my expectations, it exceeded them. The duck is so fresh and they prepare it for you tableside for a little show. The wraps are soft and warm, and they make for the perfect little bite when paired with the duck, cucumber, and hoisin sauce. The staff was also friendly and attentive. This was a great place for a big group/family meal. read more

The food was tasty and authentic BUT the Peking Duck, although nicely roasted and presented, wasn't the Peking Duck that I'm familiar with. It's roast duck that's served in the Peking Duck style.

TL;DR - Try their duck dish!!! I highly recommend you try their small appetizers. We got Okra and Beef Tripes. The okras are crunchy. Based on the texture, I suspect they were quickly soaked in hot water and pulled out. Sauces are drizzled on top of them right afterward. The sauce is thick because of the okra. The soy-based sauce is not very salty. Combining with okra, the sauce brings a unique texture. Beef Tripe is spicy but with a linger of sweetness at the end. Be careful with spicy after kick if you don't eat spicy food. We are not going to talk too much about other dishes. Some of them are a hit or miss. I have been here twice in the past month. My suggestion is to avoid any fried meat dishes. The two we got this time are either overly fried or overly sweet. Looking at the color of the meat, you can tell it's fried in reused grease. Of course, you want to know about the main dish, which everyone comes here for--the Beijing Duck. I am glad to see a restaurant serving unique Chinese cuisine! I have to give the restaurant a higher rating just for that. For the dish, the server brings a whole duck in front of your table. Then, they will peel and slice the skins off the duck. They will provide you with dishes of sliced onions, cucumbers, wraps, and hoisin sauce. Mix them and wrap it up like a burrito! The greasy and crispy texture from the duck, the sweetness from the hoisin sauce, and the vegetables provide a balanced flavor!! However, the duck meat is not as flavored as I would like. In addition, depending on which waiter is preparing your duck, you might get some crispy duck skins or chunks of duck meat. You want crispy duck skins!! Lastly, I am amazed if you are still reading. I hope you enjoy this place!! I don't have much to say about the service and pricing. Make sure you look through both menus. One has more appetizers and smaller plates. read more

Chef's House has great Peking duck. The price for two was $40, which I would say is expensive but normal for Peking duck. The duck is so crispy and juicy, pairing perfectly with bao buns and hoisin sauce. This place is always packed. I would have enjoyed more bao buns, as our whole meal came with only five. This place is great for hosting parties and free parking! read more

Chef's House - Peking Duck - peking duck for two - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Chef's House Dine-in: 5/21/23 12:28p I went to Chef's House for lunch formerly known as KungFu Kitchen. Restaurant was relatively slow. Modern Asian accents decor with some very unique ceramic tableware set for each table. The menu offered variety of authentic Chinese dishes that included in both Chinese and English. Servers are very knowledgeable when asked questions regarding dishes. We ordered the Peking Duck and several additional entrees and side dishes. Peking Duck was carved in front of you at the table. It served with a platter that included crepe, spring green onion, cucumber and hoisin sauce. (Steam bao available upon request). As for the Peking Duck carcass, you will be offered to have it stir fry with ginger or make soup with soft tofu (there will be additional charge for soup). Although presentation was pretty impressive, duck was fatty and skin was not crispy. The other dishes were very oily and a bit on the salty side. Overall, nice restaurant setting with available space to accommodate big party (private party room available). Staffs are very helpful and attentive. Foods are inconsistent from past visit and need to be improve. But will definitely come back again in the nearby future hoping to see improvement. read more

The duck here was so amazing, perfectly crisp on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. We got the 2 course dish where the first course was peking duck and the second course we got salt and pepper stir fried duck, which was savory with a side of rice. We also got the cucumber salad, which was a little oily, but still savory and refreshing alongside the duck. The duck was very fairly priced for the portions and dishes made and the table side-cutting of the duck. Fantastic place, will be coming here again! Service was great, swift and reliable. I got there when it was opening so I didn't have trouble getting a table, but it definitely picked up as the night went on. The atmosphere was friendly and lively, a family place to share food and conversation. read more

Chef's House - Peking Duck - Peking Duck (2 course) - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

This place is really average. We ordered a bunch of things, and only a few things were good: Peking duck: pretty average. Definitely not worth the price charged. Scallops and mushrooms: surprisingly tasty, this was probably my 2nd favorite thing. Fuqi feipian (husband and wife sliced beef): really bad. Nothing close to the real thing, and their chili oil was way too mild. Walnut shrimp: this was actually really good. The portion size was big, the sauce was good, and I like the fried thin strips of taro on top. Shrimp with tofu: very average. House special fried rice: pretty average. Nothing special to write home about. read more

I've been here several times with my family and we really enjoy it! Quick thoughts: - Decor is typical of every mid tier Chinese restaurant. Lots of seating too - service was quick! - some dishes are a hit or a miss. You just have to know their specialties. - For the love of god get the Peking duck! It's in the restaurant's name! The skin was very crispy while the meat itself retained a lot of moisture. Overall 4/5 stars since some dishes aren't that great but they 100% nail their specialties. read more

From the start, this place felt like it was nickel and diming us. Water? Only bottled water. Tea? Sodas? No refills. We got a whole Peking Duck but they left half of it uncut, took it into the back and brought out a small bowl of soup which they said was made using what was left which seems very unlikely. More likely, they probably have a huge vat of duck soup in the back. And wait for it....they charged us more for the soup supposably made using the duck we'd already paid for without telling us about an up charge. Terrible experience all around. read more

Chef's House - Peking Duck - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Wow, this is a very polarizing place. Usually, 3 stars for a Chinese restaurant indicates it's a pretty bad place. I probably wouldn't have tried this spot if local legend Daniel B. Didn't rate it 5 stars. Chef's House is a very authentic Chinese restaurant. How authentic? Even with my very 老外 accent, the staff still spoke Chinese to my party. They also only served my party hot tea because real Chinese typically do not drink iced water. I thank the restaurant staff for not [correctly...] deducing I'm very Americanized and serving me that way. There's a lot of different dishes at Chef's House, but you come here for the Peking Duck. At ~$45 as of this review for a full duck, it's maybe slightly more expensive than it would be in Beijing, but not by much. My party also ordered a sautéed cauliflower dish that was frankly a bit overpriced at $18. After tasting the cauliflower, my dismay over the price was allayed. It tasted truly incredible. The cauliflower was a great vegetable compliment to the meat. The Peking Duck is served in two courses. For the first course, the chef carves it at the table and prepares a board with the traditional accoutrements: julienned cucumbers and scallions, thin roti, and a sweet bean sauce. The duck is purposefully carved to emphasize its crispy skin, with lighter amounts of meat. The second course is made with the remaining parts of the duck chopped up. You can choose from the traditional duck soup or to have the rest of the duck sautéed with scallions, ginger, and garlic. We chose the later. Course two was equally good as course one. The flavors that the restaurant unlocked were truly incredible. Peking Duck is a unique dining experience that should be enjoyed in its most authentic way. If you don't quite have the time/energy/money to enjoy it in Beijing, Chef's Table truly provides the next best thing. read more

Peking done was done nicely and served with doilies the way I prefer rather than mantou. Duck was also used to make the soup course and bean sprout stir fry dish. The duck was very enjoyable. The beef tendon claypot looked delicious, but the bean curd sticks were undercooked and quite chewy. Atmosphere was nice, seemed clean as well. Overall, meal was enjoyable and service was good and quick. Will definitely go back again. read more

All the portion are very shareable. Peking duck presentation and tastes great. Great place for family and friends gathering.

I give this place five stars. One of my favorite family style Chinese restaurants in the area. Was really skeptical about trying this place because of low reviews, but every dish ended up impressing me. Stir fried duck and garlic steak are some of my favorite dishes here. I've come here multiple times with groups of various sizes, so I've tried many different dishes and every one was good. Every dish was flavorful; nothing I wouldn't recommend. The menus are large filled with great pictures so you know exactly what you're getting. There are so many options available. The interior is nicely designed. Service is sketchy but I always got what I needed in a reasonable amount of time. They don't have free water so that's kinda weird. read more

Fantastic food but the only option for water is bottled water. This is the type of .... That annoys me from a full service restaurant

We only come to Chef's House on Special occasions. Since it's Mothers Day weekend, no place better than this special authentic Chinese food. And watching the Peking Duck finely sliced in front of you is a treat. Our server Ruby and Lina are awesome. They are attentive, friendly and professional. I love the attention we get in this place. The inside is always clean, have a wonderful glamour and provide that home style feeling. read more

Friendly staff, mostly speaks Cantonese. Had Peking duck only. That was plenty for 2. Didn't feel like staying much longer. Didn't have dessert menu, clean dining room and prompt service when called. Went on Saturday 7:30pm, no wait. Tips are not included in the bill contrary to prior reviews. read more

We finally made it to Chef's House for a birthday. We lucked out and were seated right away once we arrived. Staff was friendly, service was great and attentive. The items we ordered were delicious. We went for the Peking Duck (two course}, opted for a stir fry for the remaining duck parts, Braised Stuffed Tofu, Salt & Pepper Squid, and Salted King Crab with Glutinous Rice. There are two separate menus with a variety of unique dishes to try from. Hoping to return for another special occasion. read more
