One of the places we have been wanting to try, the Chinese Duck House is a solid choice for simple Chinese....and duck! One of our favorite dishes is Peking Duck, this isn't that. The Chinese Duck House serves Roast Duck. The duck was good, not dry or oily but also not amazing. It was good but not amazing. We started our meal with the Chicken and Corn Soup. One of my favorite soups, this was prepared perfectly. Smooth, flavorful and served hot, it was perfect. A great way to start our evening. We ordered the Fried Tofu. Now this was amazing. The Tofu, lighted breaded was cooked to perfection, with a slight crispness to the outside and silky smooth on the inside. So good. We also ordered the Salt & Pepper Pork Ribs. The seasoning was really delicious. The slices of pork was a little on the thicker side, which was nice but the meat was a bit on the dry side. Great flavor but a bit dry. We ordered the Beef Chow Fun with gravy. Everything was really good but the noodles seemed to stick together making them a bit bulky and a bit chewy in texture. If the noodles hadn't stuck together, I think the dish would have been much better. We ordered the garlic green beans, a special on the board. A wonderful taste of garlic and onion, the green beans were cooked perfectly. So good. If you want good, simple Chinese, the Chinese Duck House is a solid option. It's nothing fancy but its clean with good service and ofcourse delicous food. read more

Stopped in to order a half roast duck as it was close to my hotel. The servers were friendly. I did not eat in the dining room but it looked cozy and clean. The duck was well packaged and remained crisp when I returned back to my room. It was flavorful and came with a duck sauce that reminds me of A-1 Steak Sauce in flavor. Overall Chinese Duck House was delicious and I will certainly return the next time I am in the area! read more

Chinese Duck House - Roast Duck (L) 燒鴨套餐 - Cantonese Near Me - Reno, Nevada

We were in Reno for a week and were craving some authentic Chinese food. We stayed at the Peppermill and this restaurant happened to be right across the street. The ambiance is unassuming but the flavors hit the spot. We came back the next day to try different dishes. Service was fast and friendly. Easy parking. Clean bathroom. We will come back whenever we are in Reno! read more

Conveniently located between the 2 dominant resorts, Atlantis and Peppermill, this little Duck House offers a nice surprise to us. Of course, we tried half a roast duck and a wonton and beef stew noodle soup. Not bad at all for watching the soccer match in our room. read more

Chinese Duck House - Cantonese Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Pre CNY meal. Singapore noodles and tofu and vegetables. CNY holds special memories for me when my Chinese relatives would come to visit. Living in Southern California, Los Angeles Chinatown was less than a 2 hour drive. Our Biggest Little City is a far cry from the big Chinatowns nearby but I am grateful for the diversity it does have. Soothing rhythms of the Chinese language in the background. Savory foods and a place to go that feels like home. Service was great. In and out foot traffic on a Sunday. read more

I was craving Chinese food and my monthly Uber Eats credit was about to expire, so I jumped on Uber Eats to see what was out there. I came across Chinese Duck House. I've heard of it before but never actually tried it, so I figured why not. Scrolling through the menu, I noticed they had a couple of buy one get one deals, which definitely caught my attention. I ended up ordering wontons as an appetizer and chicken fried rice, both part of the BOGO deal, plus an order of Mongolian beef. I placed the order and headed over for pickup. When I got there about 20 minutes later, everything was ready to go. It was quick and easy, in and out with no hassle. Once I got home, everyone dug in. Overall, the food was good. The wontons and the Mongolian beef were the standouts for sure. The fried rice was decent, but it felt a little bland compared to everything else. This isn't authentic Chinese food by any means. It's definitely more American-style Chinese takeout, but sometimes that's exactly what you're in the mood for. The buy one get one deals make it even more worth it. I'd order from here again when I'm looking for that guilty pleasure Chinese food fix. read more

OMG!!! I've ordered from here through DoorDash over 10 times I think it's time I write a review. I'm very picky about Chinese food and this is our go to place in Reno. We always order the pork chow mein and pork fried rice. We love the paper wraps chicken, seasame chicken, and orange chicken. Great portion sizes! We always treat ourselves to this whenever we don't feel like cooking. One thing is I wish my order came with fortune cookies (I personally like those!). We will have to go sit down and eat here but as far as delivery order it's great!!! DoorDash always offers a buy 1 get 1 free on the chow mein and fried rice ( perfect for leftovers) read more

I went in for a carry out order. Their menu looks amazing with a lot of options. I ordered the beef and mushroom with BBQ pork chow mein. The beef didn't have any flavor. It wasn't seasoned at all. It was cooked properly, though. My husband had Kung Pao chicken. He said the chicken was dry and, even though it said spicy, he didn't get the spice he was looking for. The pot stickers had no flavor at all. The only tasty food we had was the egg rolls. read more

AMAZING. Foremost, the food was just phenomenal and then to top it off it came out so fast. The hot and sour soup was so amazing. I'm serious we enjoyed every bit of this meal. The beef was very soft and flavorful and great. You have to give this place a try read more

*Visited on Sat. 12/28/2024 around 1:30 with a group of 7 I've heard some pretty good things about Chinese Duck House- especially from my family members who often come to Reno and usually stop by this restaurant- I was not disappointed. The staff here are very kind and attentive, and was quick to make sure everyone was situated and taken care of. Not to mention, despite coming with a group of 7, our dishes came out quickly and steaming. Chinese Duck House is a cozy restaurant in between Peppermill and Atlantis, and has some pretty decent dishes. Granted, I find this spot to be more of a Chinese Soul Food restaurant- if you're craving a good noodle dish or soup dish, I believe you can satisfy that craving here without breaking your wallet. OKAY THE FOOD: * BBQ Pork Chow Fun- pretty good and VERY filling. I could not finish my plate because there was so much, but if I could've eaten more I would. Towards the end, it was a little more on the greasy side, however this dish is typically greasy so I can't complain. * Beef Chow fun- I had a small bite from my partner's and found it to be pretty tasty as well, granted he did dress up his dish with plenty of chili sauce read more

Chinese Duck House - BBQ Pork Chow Fun - Cantonese Near Me - Reno, Nevada

If you're anywhere near Reno and love roasted duck, this is your place. Their roasted duck is absolutely to die for. Perfectly crispy skin, juicy, flavorful meat, and that rich, savory seasoning that lingers in the best way. Hands down the best duck I've ever had! I've literally driven all the way from Stockton just to eat it once, then turned around and drove back. That's how serious the craving gets! Every time I visit the Peppermill Casino (which is several times a year), this spot is my first stop. My husband and I always order a whole roasted duck just for the two of us -- and yes, we usually finish the entire thing in one sitting. No shame. It's that good. The prawn with spicy pepper salt is another absolute favorite. The prawns are huge, super crispy, and coated in a flavorful mix of salt, pepper, and spices that hits all the right notes. Spicy, salty, and just a hint of sweetness. Every bite has that addictive crunch and depth of flavor that keeps you reaching for more. I also love their crab rangoon. Always served hot and crispy, with a creamy, delicious filling. It's a small place, probably only about eight tables, but that just adds to the charm. This is a true mom and pop restaurant with incredibly kind and welcoming staff. They remember us, greet us warmly, and make every visit feel personal. It's become a tradition for us, and I look forward to it every time I'm in Reno. read more

Once again I apply the do not judge the book before reading it. Wow I was impressed with the quality of the food, the large portions, how delicious and cheap it is. I ordered a special dinner in which I grabbed duck and honestly it was very tasty, it was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, the only thing I don't like is that it was a little salty to my liking but from there everything was good. The lady who attended us was very kind and the food didn't take long to get to our table. I really enjoyed eating here. read more

Chinese Duck House - Cantonese Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I have been eating here for almost three decades. I always came for the food not the ambiance. Apparently it has new owners. They've not only raised prices substantially, they've made their portions noticeably smaller. My wife and I had the American-Chinese classics Kung pao chicken, chicken fried rice and pot stickers. These are dishes that Duck House mastered years ago. They've been ruined by inadequate portions, a switch to cheaper ingredients, shrinkflation and greedy owners. It's a shame to see such a free fall from a restaurant that long held a special place in my heart. I hope it was worth it. Two stars is being generous. read more

It has been a while since ordering at Duck House. Ordered my stand by chicken chow Mein. Yep like everyone else price has increased. $15.17 OTD but the plate was no where full as it once was and got more white rice than chow Mein . The chicken was dried out and seemed to be mixed from a leftover plate from another order. Advice try another place. Sometimes you just go back! read more

This has been my favorite place to visit for some quality Chinese food in town. Locally owned and in a good location this place brings a lot of good food. My favorite time to go is for lunch where I can order the lunch special chicken chow mein with fried rice and an egg roll. It also comes with your choice of soup. This place brings back a lot of memories as a kid it's been in the community for many years now. Definitely recommend checking it out. read more

If you're judging Chinese Duck House by its "is-this-place-even-open?" exterior, stop right now. Yes, it looks like the kind of spot your mom would warn you about--but trust me, inside awaits culinary wizardry that'll slap your taste buds awake. I've never even ordered the duck (I know, sue me), but every traditional Chinese dish I've gotten here is insanely fire. We're talking flavors so authentic, you'll start speaking Mandarin after two bites. Fried rice, noodles, sizzling beef--it's all next-level deliciousness. True story: I stay at Peppermill, and even though I could easily Uber Eats or DoorDash, I willingly brave the Reno streets on foot, trekking back like Frodo carrying the One Ring, guarding my precious bag of Chinese food. If you're not willing to walk half a mile clutching egg rolls and noodles to your chest like a newborn baby, do you even love food? read more

How did we learn about The Duck House? Would you believe that a random dude we were in line with for takeout at a Chinese BBQ deli in Newark, in the East Bay, told us about the awesome roasted duck at The Duck House. The girlfriend mentioned that we would be in Reno & he excitedly insisted that we should give this restaurant a try. Fast forward to this afternoon & I was there for lunch. The girlfriend had her spa experience so i had a free day & it was lunch at the Duck House. 1 look at the menu & i thought food here is cheap! I had the roasted duck w/tofu & veggies lunch combo & hot tea. I expected the veggies came separately but nope, all together in 1 plate. The duck was moist & juicy, much better than expected. I was pleasantly surprised & said so to the server. She said their ducks are popular and that loads of chinese people from the Bay eat there. I am not surprised by her declaration - good food & low prices? We are there read more

I'm not sure if they are under new ownership or I had a bad batch but the beef stew over rice I ordered was very bland. Not the typical delicious beef stew i was accustomed to expect when it comes to Chinese Duck House. Not to mention, I found a PIECE OF HAIR on my entree which was a very big let down. For a $16 dish, I was not expecting low quality in flavor compared to its value. Hopefully, my next visit will be a whole different experience. For it may be my last. read more

Duck in the wonton soup was ok. The bbq pork appetizer doesn't taste like it was bbq'ed and a bit dry. Wouldnt order that again. Also had the shrimp fried rice and portions were barely enough for 2 adults and 2 toddlers. read more

After reading a couple of reviews from other yelpers, I decided to come back and try this place again. It has been years since we've had the duck here. One thing I remember, for the price it is the only place in Reno where you can grab some quick ' duck to go' and they do a good job. It is not Peking style, but it is similar. We ordered A whole roast duck and a few other items. tried to order shrimp in oyster sauce, but they said they did not have it. They did have other shrimp dishes though? they do have large portions, that is one thing I can say for the price. What we ordered: Whole roast duck House fried rice Beef with green beans Pan fried potstickers Cashew shrimp Barbecue pork with vegetables Didn't take too long for the order. Again the portions were large, and the duck was spot on. But the rest of the food, was meh... there was definitely a lot of fives spice on all the food. The duck was good as expected. And they gave a huge portion. $42 for a whole duck. Finally the potstickers were pan fried, but stuffed with a starchy paste. Couldn't tell if there was actually meat in it. That is a huge change. I do remember they had great potstickers in the past. read more

The food was delicious! I came in on a Saturday afternoon order the Dinner Special. man! this was a lot for food for the price. I ordered the Sesame Chicken and the Noddles a good portion of food.

Went to the Chinese Duck House in search of congee but I didn't see it on their menu (maybe I missed it) so I ended up ordering their Wor Wonton soup to go, plus an order of chicken chow mein, some potstickers and a sweet-and-sour combination plate. My nephew said the sweet-and-sour plate was just alright but we both agreed the potstickers were good and I thoroughly enjoyed my Wor Wonton soup. The cashier lady was pretty nice and patient while I tried to decide what to order. The only criticism I have is after I had placed my order and was walking away from the counter, I caught a whiff of something malodorous in the air; first impressions is rotten vegetables but hopefully it was just cabbage cooking because those stink no matter how fresh they are or an ill-timed emptying of the refuse bin; I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. read more

How can you come to Chinese Duck House and not order Roast Duck? Not the greatest roast duck ever, but one of the best in Reno. Beef chow fun was good - fresh noodles, not the dried ones you get at some places. Wor won ton soup had huge won ton - more like massive meatballs! Service here is efficient and the inside is pretty basic, but we come here for the food! read more

We ordered a stir fried chicken with cabbage (you wrapped it with this flour made wrapper and a sweet sauce that tasted like hoisten sauce) and singaporean noodle -- they feel like we are eating street food -- usually street food in Singapore, Taiwan, or in some market in China tastes really good, however the food we had didn't taste bad, but not the best Asian food as well. We felt like they put MSG too, at that time, 'cause I felt dizzy after eating. The food is not too memorable for us to come back. Maybe since we tasted the best Chinese food before, our standard is high, anyway, until now, we are still looking for the best Chinese restaurant in Reno, and so far, our quest still continues. In fairness, the service is fast, and the owner is friendly. The ambiance is a typical old Chinese restaurant in Chinatown. I find the carpet dirty. My son was trying to crawl on the carpet, but I stopped him because it was sticky and rough. I think the place needs a bit of cleaning. read more

We had high hopes for this local establishment. We walked in looked around and, after smelling the odor of sewer, walked out. It was disgusting! I'm sorry, I don't like to make such a scathing review, but it is warranted. The pictures on Yelp showed fountain soda machine but it's not there. They sell sodas by the can. It's a shame because their food might be good. But, there's no way I could enjoy a meal with the sewer odor! I ddo NOT recommend this restaurant. read more

Must have tried them on a bad day. The room is nice on the inside but almost looks abandoned on the outside. Very friendly service. Really awful food. I don't understand other reviewers raving about dried out, over salted duck. We had other take-out dishes as well that we literally threw away. It was prepared so quickly that we knew right away it was just frozen pre-cooked protein heated and covered in commercial sauce. Only the fresh cooked rice was actually good. I'm truly sorry for such a negative post but I have eaten Cantonese food for years and I do not feel this restaurant is on par. read more

I have driven by this little restaurant for many years! I ended up here by chance as the restaurant I had planned to go to was closed on this day so remembered this was close by. Did not know what to expect but very pleased. Pleasant staff, nice menu with tons of choices and the usual and expected lunch specials. Love that I could see the cook preparing the meals.I ordered the Kung Pao chicken, no peanuts with steamed rice. I have to say, I was delighted with the appearance and then the taste. Very delicious! I am now anxious to try some of their other dishes. The hot and sour soup was rich, flavorful and a nice thicker consistency. The egg roll that comes with the lunch special was way bigger than any you may get to elsewhere. Tasted better too! I shall be back. No wonder this little restaurant has been there for so many years! Worth a visit! read more
