Located in flushing within a mall, this might have been one of the top restaurants in NYC that I have been to, and am looking forward to coming again. There was a long wait as we put our names down for a party of four, but there is a lot to do in the mall as you wait. Our party of four was able to get seated on a Sunday afternoon after about 30 mins or so. The indoors is very well decorated and it has a nice dimly lit atmosphere. Something this place does do really well is the plating and presentation. Our first appetizer were these shrimp balls and they served 9 items on this really stunning tree holder. We ordered pork, some boiled bok choi, and Peking duck. I think in NYC this was the best Peking duck experiences I have had. They provided a large variety of toppings more than just the basic green onions. They ask if you want the bones boiled or fried afterwards. They provide a large amount of wraps for you to enjoy, and the duck was prepared beautifully. Now this place does get pricey but my friends and I loved our visit. They show you how to make each roll, they provide plastic gloves are you prep the duck rolls. Will definitely plan to come back, every thing we ate was fantastic and we had a great time. It does get a bit pricey however.
Walked past this place many times (hard to miss with the drums in the front) but never actually tried them until today. To preface.. I'm not a big fan of duck at all but my husband and family are so we gave this a go. We ordered the 5 dishes, one of which was the Peking duck and another the lion's head (huge meatball). Not a fan of the duck but my grandma and husband were. They do show you their neat trick on wrapping the duck so that's pretty cool. Also took the remaining duck to be fried with salt and pepper (you have other options like soup..) but that was too salty for us. Really enjoyed the clams and veggie dish as well! We brought my toddler and they gave her steamed egg which was really nice! Overall top notch service and good food! Accommodating for toddlers which is nice and even she ate more than usual.
4 stars for overall service and food. The ordering on the iPad was interesting as the menu was in Chinese. Thankful for the one line descriptions and photos to match. This hot spot, located on the first floor of Tangram Mall, is bustling with crowds on the weekends. They do not take reservations unless you want to book the private rooms or The Birdcage. There is a minimum spend to be in each room so choose wisely. The room we were seated in had a minimum spend of $500. Before you confirm your order, a staff member needs to come by and re-confirm your order, especially to ensure you spent the minimum. There were some very unique dishes and curiosity got the better of us - a few were hit or miss. The misses: hot mustard with cabbage, it was a spicy mustard (like wasabi kind of dry heat, where the heat clears your sinuses). And there was way too much mustard in general, on top. The other dish that was almost a miss, the plum cherry tomatoes. The tomatoes were sweet but skin was still on so the plum brine doesn't absorb too much into the tomato. This is an overall refreshing dish for the summer months since it's served cold. The hits: that full portion of Peking duck served in a fancy presentation like a jewelry trunk with drawers. Each compartment or drawer held a treasure to speak. The cut up duck meat, super moist, the garnish of julienned cucumbers and scallions, the delicious sauce and the fabulous crispy duck skin served over toast and topped with caviar. It was a sight indeed. Beautiful presentation. I also enjoyed the King Crab, this 4 pound beauty was cooked and served two ways. First, steamed crab meat legs with steamed eggs on a large plate. The second method was a stir-fry of more cut crab pieces. Well seasoned and tasted like a mixture of Old Bay seasoning and spices. The other favorite of the night was the pork meatball. While only one serving ordered, we managed to break it up with a spoon and everyone got to try it. The other stand out dish was the brisket and beef tendon. Very saucy and tender. I would have wanted to try their fish dishes but all were spicy or marked with a red pepper icon. Since it's a Beijing style menu, I would presume too spicy for my taste. The coolest feature of being in the private room, the motorized lazy Susan and of course, having privacy. Made our birthday banquet much more enjoyable so that we didn't have to sit in the loud, main dining area.
Atmosphere, decor, and presentation was awesome. The service was also very prompt. Definitely get the Peking Duck.
Felt like stepping back into Beijing and tasting a perfect roast duck from those that perfected it for centuries. Located in the new mall in the heart of flushing queens with all your favorites from Asia housed in one place. Parking is awful and there is a lot located in the basement. Pricey but who cares when it's stressful on the streets. The food and service is as perfect. The seafood rice was alright, the orange beef was a 10/10. And of course the duck was perfect. Definitely do the whole duck where you get it done 3 ways for the table. Cheers
Didn't know what to expect except reading the reviews of interesting looking food options. Was greeted with a friendly server - Yoko, who ended up making us appreciate our experience with his down to earth service and personality. Soft spoken with a hint of fun levity. Our order consisted of half a Peking duck, cauliflower, and black fried rice that was set a blazed for a fiery cool effect. The unexpected was further experienced when the remaining part of the duck that wasn't used in our initial order (with pancakes) was used and put in a soup. The soup was great because it was overly salty and served with tofu. Place is decorated in modern antique theme of a Beijing opera house. They had Chinese opera playing softly in the background. So yes I recommend this place for an overall positive experience. A little on the pricey side they treat you well.
Cuisine: 6 Service: 7 Decor: 8 Value: 3 Overall: 6 If you're looking for the best Peking Duck in NYC, then stop your search and come here. Imho, the version this Beijing (formerly Peking) franchise offers is the closest to what I enjoy in China. Is it worth the price? That's for you to decide. It's expensive if compared to other Chinese restaurants in the area, but almost considered a bargain compared to whole duck options in westernized restaurants all over the city. For me, I stop by every once in a while because it is worth the splurge for me. Another reason why I come to Juqi is the beautiful decor, especially their private rooms and the semi-private bird cage table. My family has celebrated a couple special occasions here, and they all loved the environment. Unfortunately, that's where my praises for this restaurant ends. First of all, everything is too expensive. Check the local Dongbei restaurants in Flushing and most of them charge 20-40% less for the same dishes. More importantly, it's not any better in quality or taste. Some of the dishes look fancier, especially the desserts, and that's what you are paying for. Keep that in mind and you will have a decent experience.
I had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant. The Beijing roast duck was absolutely delicious and exceeded my expectations. The skin was perfectly crispy, while the meat was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. It was served with fresh pancakes, vegetables, and a tasty sauce that made every bite even better. The portion size was generous, and the presentation was beautiful. The staff were friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout the meal. The restaurant was clean and had a comfortable atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves authentic Beijing roast duck and great Chinese cuisine.
I came here this afternoon for a solo lunch and left thoroughly impressed. I ordered half a Peking duck, braised wheat gluten with shrimp, and XO sauce seafood fried rice--definitely more than enough for one person! Every dish was beautifully executed and full of flavor. The wheat gluten puffs with shrimp were especially memorable and reminded me of dishes I grew up enjoying in China. The Peking duck was the standout--the skin perfectly crisp, light, and delicate, paired with tender, flavorful meat. Wrapped in the paper-thin pancakes, each bite was balanced and satisfying without feeling greasy. I ended up taking the fried rice home, and the staff kindly offered to turn the duck bones into a tofu and cabbage soup to go--a thoughtful touch that really elevated the experience. Service was just as impressive: professional, attentive, and efficient from start to finish. A flawless meal overall--I'll absolutely be back to explore more of the menu.
Food was beautifully presented and definitely very good but we quickly ran out of room due to the size of the serving dishes and kept on consolidating other dishes on our table to make more room. It may have also been us over ordering but pacing would have helped so we as the diners don't feel rushed. If you are going with a party of 4, it may be wise to ask for a table that seats 6 so this doesn't happen to you. Out of all the dishes we tried, the seafood vermicelli, fried prawns, and crispy shrimp balls were the highlights. The Peking Duck was fine, didn't stand out as much as the other items. Not pictured here was the fish filet in sauerkraut soup which was super spicy and my friends really enjoyed. Cocktails were delish! I would consider this type of meal, a fancy Chinese dinner if you wanted to impress family/friends as I would consider it overpriced.

Food was delish. Service was great. The shrimp balls I ordered originally was not fully cooked but they took it back and gave a new order - no fuss. Miki was our server was very sweet and explained the menu to us since it was my first time here. Squid fried rice was just okay..but the fire was nice. Would come again to try other dishes. read more

I went here with my family in the Tangram mall and I would say the interior and exterior design was very well done. The service was pretty good overall and the place was very clean. However the food I felt was so so. We ordered the Steamed pancake bag stuffed with mushroom and water-chesnut which is the Lucky Bag on the menu and it was so cold that I felt like I was chewing ice on the food. Definitely was disappointed in that dish. Some of their dishes were spicy and I expected it for their lamb and pork. But, some of the food was overly salty to the point it was unbearable to eat and I had to keep drinking a lot of water and eating white rice to compensate for the salty flavor. I felt the whole duck was their best dish and I saw that was a common theme for all reviews and pictures. It's as you expect typical Peking duck style. But that was satisfying to eat comparatively to the other dishes we ordered. Overall the food was not the best in my opinion for the pricey food you pay for. I hope to see some improvement on their food. But, I won't deny that their service and the restaurant decor are amazing. read more

The reason why I choose this restaurant to try is mainly the mahjong dessert and the fried rice. The Peking duck is pretty good. Skin is crispy. My parent like the lychee shrimp balls. Drink is milky and solid. Service is good. Overall this is a good restaurant to try out read more

This is as good of a Peking duck that you can get in NYC! Juqi is a famous Peking duck restaurant in Beijing, and they opened in the heart of flushing in the new Tangram mall. The duck skin is perfectly crispy and the the dipping sauce is perfect! This duck is almost as good as the Peking duck they have in Beijing! I'm so mad I forgot to take pictures of the other dishes because I was to engrossed with the eating! You must try the braised pork with quail eggs! That braised pork literally melts in your mouth! Another must get is the juqi tofu, but I'd skip the ketchup and mayonnaise dipping sauce that it comes with. It's a weird dipping sauce. I'd avoid it. The silky tofu is fried perfectly so that the outside skin is light and crispy and the interior is still delicately silky! I'd pass on the zha Jiang mien, it's a little bland. Mrs Liu steamed pork is a traditional pork dish that is a rare find in the USA. There are so many other dishes that I ordered and I can't list them all. My thumbs are tired! Just go check it out! Plus there's a new promotion going on, if you pay triple the amount of your bill, you'll get the full credit and then your email is free! Go check it out to find out! read more

Great restaurant, great dishes. Shout out to Max, best server! The Beijing duck is the best in New York. Delicious and juicy. Other dishes like Mapo tofu with sea cucumber are also great. It's looks spicy but it's a good dish for everyone. Again, I love Max's service. He's always willing to help and provide anything you asked for. read more
Nice new spot in flushing! The restaurant isn't very big so be ready to wait without ressies. The service was great and food came out quickly and piping out. Everything was so pretty and you can tell they really thought out presentation here. We ordered so much but my faves were the Peking duck, mapo tofu w sea cucumber (fancyyyy) and the crispy fried shrimp. read more

I heard about Juqi as I am originally from Beijing so I am really looking forward to trying it. It was a great experience. The food: We got half Peking duck, LuZhu, Sauteed shredded pork in sweet bean sauce and a lotus root vegetable dish. Luzhu was a well known Beijing street food. I am pleasantly surprised by its rich and poignant flavor. The decor: Modern but with respect to the old times in Beijing. Home feel and especially resonates with my experience growing up there. The dinnerware: Impressive and attending to details. I was later told that they were all shipped from China to give a feel of authenticity. Our LuZhu was in this copper hotpot which is classic. The service: good and attentive. Not stuffy or overbearing either. read more

Is Peking Duck available for take out?
Are there gluten-free options?
When I called the staff said you don't have gluten free option but when I looked at a customer review you did offer it. Can you kindly let me know if you still offer gluten free options?
What are the best dishes here besides Peking duck?
Is there an english menu?
Of course they have an English menu. They also speak English as well
I see there is a half Beijing duck for $59. As a solo diner, can i order this and get the full experience with buns, crispy skin, soup etc served in multiple courses?
You will not get the entire experience as with getting the whole duck. With the half, you will only get the steam wraps along side the duck. You will then get to choose btwn the soup or the fried bones. So you get a two course meal.
Is the menu only in Chinese or is there a menu in English so that people who are not so fluent with mandarin can order?
Both English and Chinese on the menu
