General Tso's lunch special
Rodger B.

I simply love Chinese food. Doesn't matter if it's authentic (I've spent a bit of time in China), Americanized, or a hybrid...It's all good in my eyes. When I lived in Lakewood (I moved from my house 12 years ago), Peking was my spot. I was back in The Wood for vacation and helped a friend move. Once I realized it was a mere block away, I had to run it back for old time's sake. I opted for the General Tso's lunch special ($6.55 out the door) prepared extremely spicy. While it wasn't the Sichuan hot that I was hoping for (it is extremely rare to find an Americanized Chinese spot who will make food THAT hot), it def brought more heat than sweet. The lunch special doesn't come with an egg roll or soup, but at that price, can you blame them? If you're looking for cheap, quality carryout in Lakewood, this is the spot. I felt that way back in 2010 and their food has certainly wishtood the test of time.

The check with Beef Chow Mein ordered.
Timothy C.

Enjoyed takeout from Peking on July 28, 2022. We had never tried this restaurant, so we were looking forward to a treat. We were not disappointed, save one small misstep. We ordered by phone and requested a family dinner for two. We also added one order of Crab Rangoon and one order of Fried Dumplings (Potstickers). The entrees we asked for were Sweet & Sour Pork and Beef Chow Mein. This is where we experienced the misstep. Arriving home and unboxing, we discovered our "Beef Chow Mein" was actually "Beef Lo Mein"! My wife was disappointed because she loves Beef Chow Mein with the crunchy noodles. Somehow the order got lost in translation. At one time you only had to check your order before leaving the restaurant if ordering from a fast-food place. Today it is required at ALL restaurants. Pretty sad since our check reflects that the order taker got it right, but the chef did not. In defense of the chef, presumably the order taker usually bags the order. That person should have checked the order. The restaurant was not busy at 4:18 P.M. The food was delicious, and the oversight will not keep us from visiting again. The servings were substantial with all containers filled. The price reflects the fact that this menu option does not include things like ribs, fried shrimps, etc. Nicely packed, Wonton Soup in separate containers. Shrimp Chips are not included but are available in quart size Ziploc baggies for an additional charge. Thick, pork filled noodles were tasty. Flavorful broth that did not taste like it was simmering for two days. The Egg Rolls were crispy with all the right ingredients. They were prepared fresh and also were not "chewy" from sitting under a heat lamp. Same thing for the Crab Rangoon. The Lo Mein was also tasty with tender onion and pieces of beef. My only gripe is the way many Chinese restaurants are preparing Sweet & Sour Pork (or Chicken) these days. Years ago, this order came prepared with pineapple, green pepper, onion and carrots along with the pork. Today, your order is served with oodles of pieces of pork and sweet sauce on the side. I guess people would rather eat just the meat. I'll take the old school version. Peking is no different. Keeping in mind my barometer over the years has been Chin's Red Dragon. If you are old enough to remember, you understand. Today you can count on one hand the number of places that serve it old school, and one of them just closed permanently. A very nice, clean restaurant that we will try again!

One of the best Chinese restaurants in Lakewood. They are always friendly and service is quick. Try the fried shrimp appetizer.

Great meals with philosophical friends (1 of 2)…read more My friend who hails from and now again lives in the western suburbs of CLE introduced me to Joe's Fine Deli and this Chinese restaurant - King Wah - which are considered area gold standards for their respective cuisines and have stood the test of time. My friend said that they might have done some remodeling and might be "off line." Their website and my phone call confirmed that they were open for business. Thus, going here was then easily agreed upon. I don't write too many reviews for Chinese restaurants. That said, allow me to be a jerk and bring up some dynamics I see - not so much with Asian food - but with consumers of Asian food. In the tech suburbs on Portland's west side, I have been in eateries where WASPy and "boring as watching paint dry" techies come in for a take-out order of lunch. These same guys sing the praises for Thai and Indian food, which they order with a high spice quotient, and I wonder if it's to counterbalance their lack of personal pep. I have eaten spicy food from these regions on a few occasions that I ordered in "dumbed down" form, my nose ran the entire time, and I wound up later going home sick. Back to King Wah. I'm open to ethnically diverse food. It just cannot be spicy. King Wah serves up the broad spectrum of Cantonese staples that Americans often choose and love. They might offer some menu items beyond Cantonese ones. Spicy items on the menu are clearly identified with the "hot pepper" icon. For me, ordering in a Chinese restaurant is a no-brainer. Is it going to be cashew chicken, lemon chicken, or beef broccoli? I had the cashew chicken. My friend ordered one of the fish entrees. We sampled each other's food and both dishes received the nod of approval. I liked my cashew chicken because it was a very satisfying larger portion that was also very tasty. The interior is clean and features some of the decor you may often see in Chinese restaurants. The service was excellent - low key, polite, and informative. Because the fried rice is "sold" separately, the overall tab might be a tad higher, but not by much. I will now go off on another tangent. I ponder some strange angles to situations. It's obvious that the management and most of the staff at King Wah might hail from China. I wonder what it must be like to come to the U.S., open a restaurant in a catchment area that is mostly non-ethnic Americans, and become the greatest thing since sliced bread to your customer base. I'm just trying to process their perceptions and acclimation along a trek that non-ethnic Americans will never experience. (For what it's worth, my foreign-born parents certainly went through this, albeit not as restauranteurs.) It's all good because it happens to every immigrant group that opens up what become popular restaurants in the U.S. and Canada and it's an interesting thing to watch unfold ... at least to me. Again, I don't partake in this cuisine often, but when I'm ready to go, I'm ready! I'm not giving this restaurant 5 stars because I was hoping that that dollop of fried rice would have come with the meal, but King Wah is clearly a 4 star experience and I would recommend it highly to aficionados of more mainstream Cantonese Chinese cuisine.

I've only ever gotten takeout from here but what is now becoming my usual order has never left me…read morefeeling disappointed. What do I order you may ask? Shrimp Ho Fun. No notes. Just get it, you won't regret it. Now you may ask me, Christina where is the photo? And I would answer you good sir or madam, that no one has time to take a photo when you've ordered Chinese takeaway in the middle of the week after a long day at work. Even if one order of this dish is about 2 or 3 meals for me...no time.
