Strawberry ice cream. Was full so only ask for a taste.
Denise M.

First time going. Sunday buffet. The food was really good. Nice staff. My only complaint is even with me saying it was my first time nothing was explained to me. I would have missed many inclusions if I wasn't asking other customers. There was an ice cream bar hidden around the corner. The pitcher on my table contained delicious hot tea that I could have been drinking with my meal. I thought it was the previous person's water pitcher so I ordered soda. An alcohol beverage is included such as wine, champagne, etc... I chose Moscato. Next time I will know how everything works.

I rarely give a one and I won't give a blow by blow of my experience here. Just that I highly recommend going somewhere else. Service, food taste and quality, ... just not good.

I've ordered takeout from Peking a few times and the food has been consistently good and ready on time. They have several locations in the Richmond area, and each restaurant's menu is available on their website next to the clearly listed address and phone number. On my most recent visit I called in an order around 5:00pm on a Sunday and was told my food would be ready in 10-15 minutes. There were plenty of parking spaces available in the large private lot when I arrived, and I was greeted by the host as soon as I walked inside the restaurant. It was quiet inside despite the fair number of diners catching an early dinner. My food was ready as promised and the bag was still steaming hot when I arrived home 10 minutes later. I had ordered two large entrees, one Orange Chicken and one Sesame chicken, and with the large portions each will certainly last for several meals. The chicken is dark meat but well cooked and crispy on the outside, and the sauces are flavorful and have a good consistency. My only complaints: I was a bit disappointed that I only received one container of rice, as entrees typically come with one for each. I also did not like the chunks of orange peels served sprinkled on the Orange Chicken, as they were extremely bitter to the point of being inedible, but I was able to pick them out. I look forward to trying more dishes from Peking.

Being greeted by two massive Foo Dogs (guardian lions) really sets the mood for this Chinese restaurant. Peking is an RVA staple when it comes to delicious Chinese food! There are several locations, and this one is Mechanicsville is sublime. There's plenty of parking and a walk up take out window too! The interior is tasteful and decorative. I love looking at the beautiful Chinese figurines and pictures. The tables and booths are spread out and comfortable. The service is excellent! And the prices are terrific with large portions! (Note that they close between 2:15-4 to transition from lunch to dinner!) I love everything about this place but the star of the show is the food! The pork fried rice is amazing and my "go to" dish, fresh and crispy egg and springs rolls, the wonton soup is flavorful, the beef and broccoli had a smooth rich sauce and tender meat, the General Tsao's Chicken Imperial is one of their specialties and it does not disappoint! I've also enjoyed the Chicken Velvet in a light white wine sauce over rice and it was out of this world. The Moo Shu Pork is some of the best in Richmond, and the Egg Foo Yung is light and fluffy with a delish brown sauce. These are just some of the entrées we've tried here, we've never had a bad meal! Whenever I'm craving Chinese food and I'm in the Mechanicsville area, this is the prime spot to satisfy my tummy!! And if you are lucky, the owner may just make you an origami swan as a keepsake!!

Peking has been in the Richmond area for decades. This particular store has been here for several years, perhaps 10 or more. I've eaten at various Pekings a handful of times. Last week was my first at this particular store. I walked in, sat at the bar and perused the menu. Easy choice for my first time in the store: * Spring Rolls * Hot & Sour Soup * Pepper Steak I asked the hostess about the H&SS... are the noodles homemade? No. Sigh. Fifteen minutes later I was headed home with hot food and sumptuous smells. At home I ate the Spring Rolls first, with hot Mustard. Very good, worth repeating. Next up: Hot & Sour Soup. I believe this was the best H&SS I've had in the Richmond area this year. The only negative was that the accompanying crispy noodles. Boughten, not homemade. I'd love to repeat the soup, but either with noodles procured elsewhere, or no noodles at all. Then the Pepper Steak. Very good. Not outstanding, but worth repeating. I'll be back for more dishes such as Pork Lo Mein, Szechuan Beef, one of the several Scallop dishes. Peking Restaurant was easy to find; parking was a cinch in the dedicated lot. The store was clean, and the hostess was very helpful and accommodating. I'll be back.

2nd time going today to get the lunch special with a friend. Can't recommend this spot enough. Much…read moremore flavorful "basics" than most takeout spots, and very quick service. Super appreciative of the price as well. We ate in both times and the ambiance is good for classic takeout. Cleanliness is standard. Tables aren't sticky like usual. It's not the most welcoming "vibe" if you want a sit in spot and if you care about that. I personally couldn't give a sh*t so long as the people are nice, and food is quality. Which i can absolutely vouch for. Highly recommend out of rva local takeout spots, and I'll be going back to continue trying their lunch special basics. Recommend the hot and sour soup, and the sweet & sour pork.

The lo mein wasn't it. Not a lot of flavor to it. Pretty bland. The beef cuts themselves were…read morecompletely flavorless. The general tso's chicken was good, had a bit of a kick to it. I hate spicy food and it wasn't bad. Just a tad hot but they did well balancing the flavor. The egg drop soup was probably the top 5 renditions of it that I have had. It was a little more watery than most egg drop soup but still very good. Usually egg drop soup is too salty but this was great. The rice was like Spanish rice more than fried rice. I don't care for it. Bland and flavorless. Overall, I'd choose Peking over this place for nearly the same price and better food. Also there's good seating there and not so much here. I think it just depends on what you get

Although the chips weren't my cup of tea, almost everything else was incredible! However, please be careful when trying the sauces, because one is wasabi and I almost died when it hit my tongue . I ordered the dumplings for entree. They were okay but as a pork dumpling enthusiast they were not exactly my cup of tea. For the main meal I ordered the orange chicken and fried rice (no meat). And it was incredible!! I'm a fan of Panda Express orange chicken so I was a bit worried it wouldn't be as good but it is one of the best food I've ordered from a restaurant! I really recommend. And then finally the fried rice was just yummy. I gulped it down in 10 seconds it was just too good! The food also tastes amazing once warmed up in the microwave so do not be afraid to get leftovers. Overall this was amazing and I don't understand why there are so many bad reviews. Some negatives; -the wasabi (unlabeled) -chips were meh -pork dumplings weren't the best -the music was repetitive (pretty tho) Other positives; -good price (imo) -comfy environment -good service (came to refill my drink many times) -friendly staff

There are…read moreabout four tables in the dining area, so there is an option to dine in, but I would recommend taking your food to go. The floor of the dining area did not look like it had been cleaned in a while, and the restroom was out of order. People mainly use the dining room chairs to wait for their takeout order to be ready. The food is very tasty - nothing exceptional, just your standard Chinese takeout staples. I ordered sesame chicken with fried rice, egg drop soup, and two spring rolls. They also included an extra egg roll with my order, along with soy sauce, duck sauce, and mustard. The food was hot and packaged well - it took 15 minutes for me to drive home, and it was still hot when I arrived. Everything tasted great. Ordering on their website was easy and straightforward. There is plenty of parking in the shopping center. Overall a decent place if you're craving Chinese, but I did have some concerns about the cleanliness of the restaurant.
