this is my favorite sweet-n-sour chicken in Springfield. The sauce is the very best and when added to either noodles or rice it's just wonderful. Peking House has been a Springfield establishment for probably 40 years. The owners and staff are friendly and the place always seems clean. I think I'll go there tomorrow.

Hot and spicy chicken with white rice and crab Rangoon
Ben G.

If you are on the south side of Springfield this place is definitely worth checking out. Located on east sunshine street this Chinese joint has all the basic flavors. While this is not my go to spot I stop here occasionally. They offer decent portion sizes for decent prices. I enjoy there sweet and sour and their hot and spicy. There crab Rangoon is also a favorite. Customer service is always good as well.

General chicken and crab rangoons
Omar Q.

I ate an order of general chicken ten minutes ago, yet the food is so forgettable that I'm having a hard time recollecting if I gained any pleasure from eating it or if I ate it purely out of utilitarian necessity. In any case, my handy bottle of sriracha saved the day. I hoped not to need it because I asked them to make the chicken extra spicy. I've tasted spicier corn flakes. Sadly, we also ordered the Szechuan chicken, which looked paler than early 2000s Michael Jackson. I must admit that I enjoyed the crab rangoons - they are my vice and the only reason Peking House got a second star. The carry out service was fast and convenient and the staff seemed friendly enough. All in all there are way too many options in town to justify returning here.

The general chicken is different than other places. Still good, just not like most places around Springfield.

Had the combo with general's chicken, side of rice and two wantons. It was really really good. I could have eaten the rice totally plain.

One of the best Chinese places in town. A little bit pricey for what you get, but the food is always good. Love the sesame chicken here.

Good, reasonably priced Chinese food. Try the hot and sour soup and the potstickers!

Updating my review from last year: This review below was meant for the location at 1730 E Republic…read moreRd Ste A Springfield, MO 65804. My bad, I reviewed the wrong one, but I'm sure this location is good too! Here's my review from last year on the other location: I could tell by looking at the photos and reviews on Yelp that this place was going to be wonderful. Thankfully, when we finally gave it a shot, we were not disappointed. Talk about made fresh. Everything was so delicious and freshly prepared. Flavors were spot on. The service was fantastic. They always made sure that our drinks were filled and we had everything that we needed. My absolute favorite dish was the fried green beans with minced pork. Get it with extra minced pork and you'll love it. The steamed dumplings and pancake appetizer are also really good. Highly recommend! They also have clean restrooms with an extra large sink outside the restroom area so you can quickly wash your hands if you don't actually need to use the restroom. Pretty cool. We can't wait to go back for more!

Greasy food, regular service, generous portions, and noisy ambience…read more We came on a busy Sunday evening. We ordered the sizzling pepper steak and the braised beef noodle. After a 30 min wait the food came out. The sizzling pepper steak came out very hot and sizzling but it was incredibly oily. It was well seasoned, but way too oily. After we finished it, there was a puddle of oil remaining. The braised beef noodle was decent, and it was not special in any way. The restaurant was fairly clean, although the tables were packed tightly to fit the most amount of people. Our server was attentive, refilled our water frequently even though the restaurant was packed, and knew both mandarin and English. Overall I was mostly satisfied with the experience, but I would wish the food was less salty and greasy.

The food: 5 stars always. Great dishes. The service: 1…read morestar. The atmosphere: ZERO STARS! I can appreciate the owners having kids. But...the small dining room is set up like a daycare. TV: timed in to kids programming and loud at any point and time. Kids: the daughter is quite enough. But the son talks out loud....saying what he's seeing on TV....non-stop....and I mean non-stop. And he is loud, fast talking....and oh, did I say loud? And this is how this place was on this visit. Read my other review, where the owner; which was our waiter one time in the past; never put the daughter down; as he took our order or served us. And the daughter was sick and a snotty nose that was snorting around like all get out! Service: They are never organized or attentive at all to the sit in customers. Tables always sit dirty. And if you eliminate the two tables...the owner's kids dominate...I think that only leaves (4) total tables to manage. And I sit there...and see multiple Door Dash orders get messed up and/or take forever. This last time, a Dasher left after waiting forever. The new owners may be nice or well intended. But...they have ruined this place...for all the wrong reasons.
