Thought I would update my review of Great Peking. The name says it all. It's GREAT! Still serving the best Chinese food in Arnold, MO! If you are looking for a place that is always consistent and delicious and Chinese, look no further - this is it! read more

The owner is such a spit fire and treats you like family . You can tell he takes pride in his job and his business. The place is small with limited seating, we always get it to go anyway. We had a go to Chinese restaurant we went to for years, and they unfortunately closed due to COVID. We spent years trying to find a place that even compares, and for me this was it. I finally have a Chinese place that I am excited to go to! The food is high quality with decent prices. read more

We come here often. Great food and the owner who works the counter is always very nice. You don't have to wait long typically but when he's busy expect to wait a while. If he's slammed he says on the phone 35 minutes but it actually will take about an hour and 15 minutes. If the wait is that long he usually throws in something extra read more

The food is always delicious, hot and ready when we pick up!! Great location and locally owned!

Got a St Paul sandwich (chicken, no Mayo) to go on Wednesday for lunch. Not worth the $5.90 paid -- my only other St Paul was from Mai Lee and it was 100x better. I know this sandwich was created by non- Chinese in St Louis, but if you're going to offer it, make it good. read more

Hot and sour soup was not the usual Chinese soup. Burnt chips, and Crab Rangoon burnt also and no flavor.

Best fried rice in the metro area, owner is also a very cool friendly guy. I drive 35-45 minutes just to get this takeout if I want Chinese. It's that good. read more

Only take out, which is fine by me. Everything is cooked fresh to order. The fried rice is fantastic. The egg foo young is awesome. The sweet and sour dishes are battered lightly and fried perfectly. I have been here multiple times over the last 4 years and this restaurant does not disappoint. The prices are very reasonable and the servings are large. You guys rock! Sometimes you have to wait, but it is worth it because the food is authentic and fresh. read more

Food is always great. I grew up in Arnold and stopped in while I was in town visiting my parents. The last time I was in was maybe 15-20 years ago? The food was still as good as I remember it. The owners are really nice and always have been. Great stop for Chinese food! read more

Had beef and Broccoli. Beef was nothing but gristle, could not swallow it. Thought about taking it back so they would know how bad it was but decided to just send a review since I won't be going back. read more

Special cashew crispy chicken was phenomenal....I live 20 mi away and will be back ...the guy behind the counter was comic relief...highly recommend haven't had food this good since I left the city... read more

Food is very authentic and taste great. Service is family focused and food came very fast. Look forward to returning in the future.

Carry out only here. We really like most of what we get here. My wife is a little less enthusiastic, so I can't give it 5 stars. Be sure and ask for the lunch special not the dinner special. Love the egg foo yung and garlic chicken. read more

I'm always on the prowl for good Chinese food and this place did not disappoint. They have great fried rice! It's dark, as it should be, but not from an over saturation of soy sauce (like most places), but dark because it's cooked in a well seasoned wok. Their crab Rangoon are also tasty; just the right amount of seasoning without being super sweet. And their pot stickers were spot on perfect. Not too doughy, filled with well seasoned meat and seared perfectly. Yum yum. We also ordered several entrees because we like to try a little of everything when we find a new place. The lemon chicken was good. The sauce could have used a little more lemon twang, but it was good. I liked that they served the sauce on the side so it didn't get soggy and mushy on the ride home. The Mongolian chicken was fantastic. Lots of tender slices of chicken and the sauce had a little heat but not so much that it burned my mouth. The beef broccoli was very good, loaded with lots of tender slice beef. Definitely worth trying. The hot braised chicken was also great. Big pieces of chicken, not overloaded with breading like most places and the sauce was excellent. The only dish we tried that I didn't care for was the Szechuan chicken, and that may have been my own fault because I ordered it mild. It didn't have the flavor I was expecting. I was a little bummed out that they were sold out of egg rolls, which I was looking forward to trying because this is one of the places that uses crunchy egg rolls wraps instead of the chewy kind. But the owner explained that he makes them fresh every day and when they're gone, they're gone. I would recommend this place to anyone and I will be back. read more

Tried to call 3 times .... Finally answered and they had a huge attitude saying they are trying to use the credit card machine and we need to call back in 20 minutes . We asked him if we really needed to wait that long , " yes that's what I said " . It was ridiculous, like wow. 1. They need to get an internet service and not use dial up . 2. They really need to fix their attitude read more

Delicious food! They were fast and the food was flavorful! Definitely my favorite Chinese here.

This is my favorite Chinese takeout! Not only do I love their dishes, I find the owner always fun to speak with while I pay. He always manages to make me laugh. #lovetheirchickenfriedrice read more

We just love this place. The owner is very friendly and the food is always fresh. Great soup and General Tso chicken. read more

Best in town. Fried rice and hot braised chicken is my fave. Potstickers are on point. Just a good meal every time with great flavor. Well run good management very friendly and fast! read more

Love the flavor of everything we've ordered. We tend to order and pick up but indoor seating is available. Owners are personable and funny. Only complaint is they are sometimes out of egg rolls, or are closing early. read more

Food is always great, Service is always with a smile, laugh, or joke. I order takeout mostly but they are quick and the food is hot and delicious! Yum read more

This restaurant is a hidden gem in Arnold! The potstickers are amazing & the fried rice is delicious. Everything is good & if you ask to have something added or deleted from a dish, Tony will do his best to accommodate you. They are also the nicest people. One of my most favorite restaurants! read more

Food was overpriced for what it was. It took longer than they stated. Customer service needs to improve. Apologize for being late. I will not be eating here again. read more

My go to for oriental. Serving for one is enough to share for two. Food is always good and friendly stall. Never disappointed.

tony bologna is a great guy and a damm good chef

We love great Peking they have the best food I love them great family restaurant and the brothers are so funny try them you will love them

Great food, definitely the best Chinese in the area. Hot and sour soup is made from scratch every time, and the owner is a fantastic guy. He is very welcoming and always likes to joke around while delivering great food at a great value. read more

I was a regular of this place until a couple of years ago when the quality dropped off an they eventually closed. Come to find out their chef/manager quit and that started the downward spiral. I had heard that they re-opened so I stopped in today and tried it out. The space they are in now is VERY small. The manager says that they will be expanding into the space next door and will offer a buffet by Thanksgiving 2015. The menu is full of choices but unlike most Chinese restaurants they don't offer combo or lunch specials. Not a big deal but worth mentioning. The price for won-ton soup, 1 egg roll, Kung pao shrimp and two cans of Diet Coke was $15.30 plus tip. This seemed a little high to me but I'm happy to see good Chinese options in the area. The service was attentive but when you only have four tables, it shouldn't be too hard. I look forward to reviewing this restaurant again when they've expanded and have a buffet option. read more

I called them on the phone and when they answered it was very rude. I asked him a question about the fried rice and he returned my question with "Have you had fried rice before? If you have then you should know what the hell do you want." I hung up and do not recommend giving your money to a disrespectful establishment. read more

Our favorite go to! Such great food! Great service and the food isn't greasy. Seems fresh.

I called to place an order last week and the owner answered with his usual smart mouth. I wanted a lunch special and he wasn't picking up what I was putting down. He ended up repeating himself and adding "it's not that hard" was he trying to call me an idiot? I will NEVER order from this place EVER again!!! I really like their food and was willing to overlook the owners smart mouth attitude, but NO MORE!!! I can get chinese from a couple different locations in the area and not have someone complain about his help/customers when you go to pick up your order!! Well Mr. owner, sorry to cut ties with you but you need to learn some manners and maybe go to some kind of compassion class! Your food is awesome but not worth putting up with you! You own a business and should act a little more professional than you do!!!! read more

So I think my partner and I have found our go to Chinese place near our home. Our meal came out quick, piping hot and so delicious. The workers and owners are so amazingly nice. I might suggest to them to get brown rice and chicken on a stick. I must come back and try other dishes. We had egg drop soup, hot and sour soup, bbq beef, Buddhist delight (tofu was not fried), garlic shrimp (a little spicy), cashew chicken, and vegetable lo mein. You must try the lo mein as it's the sauce that makes it amazing. read more

My go-to place around Fenton. Great Mongolian beef, hot braised chicken, egg rolls, and crab rangoon. Rangoon isn't sweet, which is awesome! Rangoon isn't supposed to be sweet. Owner is great! Fabulous food! read more

Owner was amazing! After trying several Chinese place in Arnold, we finally checked out Great Peking. I'm glad we did, absolute best in town! read more

Waited for 10 minutes and no one waited on me, despite ringing the bell and calling. Left and won't ever come back.

Consistently excellent food and very friendly staff. We are new to the area and were thrilled to find a quality Chinese place so quickly. Food is always fresh and very large portions. read more

Today while in Arnold I decided to try this restaurant. I called them to place a to go order. I was told 20 min for a half order of fried rice. I have worked restaurants before and 20 minutes is the standard time that they tell you. I was trying to ask him if it was going to take 20 minutes to let him know I was just right next-door to let him know I could be there sooner and he just basically went off on me. I was very polite I say please and thank you to everyone. I feel like we are living in a different society since Cove it. So while he was scolding me I just told him to please cancel my order. Due to the rudeness I will not be back. Saint Louis had many good restaurants. I own my own business and would not talk to a potential customer like that ever. It's one thing to tell people you're busy and yes it will take 20 minutes rather than to go off on somebody. read more

Used to come here all time 6+ years ago and was surprised to see all,the changes this place went through (read other reviews). Got the Flowery Chicken, which is what I used to get and it tasted about the same (really good), but the crab Rangoon left a lot to be desired, was to much cream cheese and not enough crab. Also would had been good if they would had put the rice in with my order verses having to go back to get it. Would get the Flowery chicken again, but not the crab Rangoon. It's apparent they have gotten into the same grove as every other Chinese restaurant around and that is to provide food and service that is just okay, which is fine as long as they can make a living. read more

Great food and entertaining owner! I often get Chinese food on Friday nights and wanted to try some place new, because all the places now days seem the same quality wise. Gave this place a try and it will now be my go to. The food here tastes so much better! The hot braised chicken has a much richer and flavorful sauce compared to the other places and the fried rice is the BEST I've ever had. It seems to take longer for the food to get ready, but I believe that is due to more prep work compared to other restaurants. That's fine, though, because the owner will entertain you with plenty of funny conversation while you wait. Just be sure to be able to take a joke! read more

It seems this restaurant doesn't want to serve people who walk in. Usually a friendly guy is working, not today. We were told we could wait to order or we could leave. No customers there except us. Will call ahead from now on, if the crab is working, we will not be ordering. read more
