    Pork Soup Dumplings (1.19.23)
    Carroll N.

    1.31.26 Their Peking duck is simply perfection. The skin is beautifully crispy, the meat tender, and the pancakes are thin, soft, and never dry. This is the only restaurant I've been to where the pancake‑to‑duck ratio actually makes sense. They also include a complimentary duck soup with the order, though it wasn't my favorite. Hubby ordered the Mongolian beef and really enjoyed it. They're generous with the meat, though he felt the dish had a bit too many onions. Our server was wonderful--attentive, friendly, and checked on us often. My only complaint was the table next to us. The group was extremely loud and obnoxious, which definitely took away from the experience. Thankfully, service was quick, so we didn't have to endure it for long.

    I like this location compared to College Park. Recently did their unlimited dim sum brunch to celebrate a friend's birthday. It was a large group so reservations were necessary! Our server, Aaron was great! Very knowledgeable and patient with our party of 8! I don't eat pork and was thinking I won't have enough to choose from but that was not the case! Their menu is expansive and everyone got to order different dishes. My favorites were the scallion bubble pancake with a side of curry sauce (a must try) and the grandma noodles. We ordered a few dishes outside of the dim sum menu. The fried rice was a hit! Everyone has to participate in the bottomless dim sum! At $36/person, it's definitely worth it. They offer a mimosa or bellini at $6/each drink. Most of our group got the bellinis. I believe the dim sum brunch option is only offered Saturdays and Sundays! Be mindful when ordering! There's no taking food home from the dim sum menu. There's also a disclaimer on their menu that they reserve the right to charge for wasted food! Overall a great experience and I would come back for the bottomless dim sum!

    Came for the all you can eat dim sum on a Sunday morning at opening. Hours for the AYCE is 11-3pm. There were fewer dim sum options than I was expecting but the staples were there: sui mai and ha gao. For $36 pp, you can order some things that are on the regular menu as well. The pea shoots were excellent. You could easily get your moneys worth with that and the soup dumplings! May try the duck set menu next time!

    We stopped by during out restaurant hopping night. For the price, we weren't so impressed with the food. Soup dumplings were pretty dried and not enough juice. Hot n sour soup was average. Crispy pork was pretty good in my opinion. Service was quick and friendly.

    Combination Fried Rice

    Hi Yelpers, I was in Columbia for my birthday and decided to grab lunch with my little girls and I looked on Yelp and found Peter Chang. The host was very warm and we were escorted to our seats. The first thing I noticed was the table keep sliding away which was really annoying. Basically it had no resistance to the floor from keeping it from not moving back and forth. I was going to ignore this until my 5 year old mentioned how the table was bothering her because one little lean on the table and it moves. We table on the table by the glass window directly in front of the Bar. We ordered Mangolian Beef, Orange Chicken, combination fried rice, steam dumplings and General So ( OMG I forgot the spelling please forgive me). I found the dishes we ordered to be way salty. Except the Rice and Steamed Dumplings which were very nice. The vibe was nice and my server Dan was fantastic. The food was just too salty. If you like Salty food then go for and I would definitely recommend the place but if you don't like salty food then skip.

    This is my favorite Chinese restaurant that is relatively local. I've loved everything I've gotten and crave Grandma's Noodle regularly. My daughter and I frequent this place for our Mommy/Daughter dates and today we tried their all you can eat menu for the first time and it did not disappoint. There were so many delicious options, we tried 13 dishes and all were good, but 10 of them for absolute 10 out of 10! Definitely get the scallion bubble pancake, the soup dumplings - yes! Crispy pork belly is addictive (not on ayce menu but they do have spicy crispy chicken which is amazing) and Today's most fun surprises were the Sour cabbage chili shrimp & pork wonton - crazy good and the Black and gold egg custard bun - wow! Just wow!

    I've been to Peter Chang several times over the years and I think something in the kitchen must have changed because some of the entrees (mala beef, mapo tofu) are much saltier and some are very lackluster in flavor or stale (popcorn shrimp). The only consistent menu item is their peking duck and the soup that comes with it, which both taste great. The service is attentive and kind, which is always appreciated. Other than that, I don't think I'd recommend this restaurant anymore unless you have a serious craving for peking duck.

    I took my mom here for a light lunch of Peking duck and soup dumplings. The Peking duck is a solid choice, especially bc it was served with a vegetable tofu soup with duck bone broth, I also like that the duck was crispy, served with cucumbers, scallions and hoi sin sauce.

    Peter Changs is fire! I came here on Saturday with my family for lunch and we got the AYCE which is actually a deal we found on their IG account, but not on the website. There was a wide variety of small dishes, street food, and dim sum to choose from. While I was experimenting with the hot & spicy pigs feet (which was unexpected fire), my family played it a little more safe with different soups, and dumplings. We also ordered 1/2 of a peking duck, which wasn't on the AYCE menu, but is definitely a must try. A few of my favorites were the... Hot & Spicy Chicken, This dish slaps. Small fried pieces of chicken with big big flavor. Braised Pork Knuckle W/ Bean Paste: It's like the best pork & beans you'll ever have in your life. My only complaint is that I didn't ask for rice. I could've eaten this on rice all day and been happy. Grandma's Noodle: Homemade noodles tossed in pepper oil, simple, but Fire! Mala Beef Brisket Noodle: Basically brisket noodle soup, extra fire! I also tried the Braised Pork W/ Baby Abalone Skewers, but then I googled Abalone. I didn't like the sauce as much as other dishes. The abalone reminded me of a tough scallop or calamari. The Sweet Glazed Pork Belly, was really sweet, and may have been my least favorite of the day, but with so many other options, I wasn't mad. Everything ain't for everybody. We also got 6 dollar mimosas with of AYCE and so we did...lol The thing that I liked the most was getting a chance to try so many different types of food. I'm always telling my kids to try new things, and this was the perfect place for them to experiment while still having other options that were more familiar. The staff here was fast and friendly, and with reservations, we had almost no wait between arriving and being seated. Other guest that walked in were having to wait to be called. all that aside, Peter Changs is Fire!!!

    Scallion Bubble Pancake
    Alexis B.

    My husband and I had brunch at Peter Chang in Columbia on Christmas Day. The restaurant is nice and in a convenient location at the Merriweather District. The service was great throughout our meal. The menu is broad, and we had a hard time deciding what to order - especially considering they had a special set menu for Christmas. Ultimately, we ordered a few dishes: a Scallion Bubble Pancake, Pork Soup Dumplings, Jade Duck Tofu Soup (Vegetable Green Broth w/ Minced Duck and Tofu), Flounder Fish Sour Cabbage Soup, and Grandma's Noodles. Everything was delicious but that extra sour and a little spicy fish and cabbage soup is the kind of dish I crave. I'm craving it right now. We ordered a bottle of sparkling sake, which was way too sweet for me, but it was nice that they have alcohol options if you want to make it a fancy brunch or dinner at Peter Chang. Ultimately, a pretty good meal, and I'd go out of my way for that soup again.

    Kung Pao Chicken Salt and Pepper Baby Shrimp
    Anita T.

    Very good Sichuan restaurant. My husband and I come here often. The dishes are pretty good, and many are spicy. Ask the waiter to adjust the spice or numbing factor if you wish. There are vegetarian options for those who prefer. We enjoy the Kung Pao chicken, the Mongolian beef, and the fried rices. We weren't super impressed by the Shrimp in Pepper sauce. They have a well stocked bar. Service is always friendly and helpful. Front staff always greets. Very small dining area so snag a reservation prior to coming out, especially on busy weekends. There is outdoor seating during warmer weather, which opens up more dining space. Give them a try!

    We took our mother to Peter Chang Restaurant in Columbia for her 78th birthday dinner. We were able to get immediate seating for 10 people at 6PM on Saturday without reservations. We ordered several appetizers and main dishes. Food came out relatively fast. Some of the dishes such as the Congqing chicken, Mapo Tofu, Peking duck, and Pea Shoots were spot on. While other dishes such as Kung Pao chicken, Bang Bang shrimp, and calamari were a disappointment.

    We made a reservation for lunch on a Saturday which was the correct decision considering how crowded it was. We chose to do the AYCE dimsum which was very affordable $36pp. There were soooo many options and the portions were small allowing us to try an even larger range of dishes. My favorite is always the scallion bubble pancake. I also enjoyed the pork soup dumplings, spicy duck, abalone, and custard buns. Everything was made to perfection. Our server was very attentive and also came by often to ask if we wanted to order more. The gratuity was automatically applied for AYCE. I did notice when I used to come here, our servers typically spoke Chinese which was perfect for our grandparents who don't speak English but in our recent times coming, we weren't able to communicate in Chinese anymore. There are two single stall bathrooms in the back and parking was kinda hard to find since there was a concert at Merriweather, we ended up parking on the 6th floor of the symphony woods garage.

My aunt enjoyed the tea cups and will put it to good use. I really love the jasmine tea and probably had a whole pot to myself. It was a cold day so hot tea was nice to start before we ate. I have been to Tea Horse many times and the food does not disappoint. I like the bar area and noticed the liquor selection was high end. I normally don't drink when I eat Chinese food but in case you want top shelf liquor, they have it.

You can immediately taste the difference - everything is freshly made and flavorful. My favorite dim sum dish is the shrimp rice noodle rolls and these were a standout here -- the noodles were thin but still soft, with a smooth texture that wasn't sticky or gummy. My next favorite is the pineapple custard bun and these were yummy -- the top had that nice, thick, crunchy crust you want (like a cookie) with a rich custard inside! They also had bubble tea and fruit teas, which are a nice and refreshing addition to dim sum! They have ample free parking and their entryway lives up to its name - really transports you to an ancient Chinese manor! The space is also large and open, with many different sections - would be great for hosting events, family gatherings, or big group meals while still having some privacy. Service was warm and attentive even during their soft opening, and the whole experience feels like a big step up for Hunan Manor. The owners also stopped by to check in to get feedback.
