    -Wanzhou Broiled Branzino (Spicy)
    Nancy L.

    I've been back a fee times since my last review. They have hired more staff and have introduced an AYCE lunch menu M-F from 11 am to 2 pm. It's great for trying a little bit of everything if you're not sure what you like. But because everything is so good, you fill up quick. They offer some of the traditional dim sim dishes but a lot are more unique!

    honey short rib

    A fun take on all you can eat dim sum. I have never seen another restaurant do Chinese tapas and I love the concept since my party was able to try a wide variety of dishes without feeling overly full. The all you can eat option is only available during brunch hours and costs $28 per person. They also offer $6 mimosas during this time. Service was not the fastest and dishes came out as they were ready rather than all together. Soy sauce, chili oil, and vinegar were also not readily provided. *Hot Tea: we had a choice of jasmine or puer, served in a pot for the table. Not bad for $4, and our pot came with two tea bags. *Mimosa: only available with orange juice. The champagne flute was quite small and thin, and the pour was light, so I would not order this again. *Spicy Mouth Watering Chicken With Peanut: our least favorite dish. It is a cold chicken dish with a marinade that was surprisingly mild and lacking flavor. The chicken was overly chewy and leaned heavily toward breast meat. *Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken: could have been served hotter, but the batter was not greasy. The chicken was tender and the flavor leaned toward a simple Thai basil profile. *Osmanthus Honey Pork Rib: not very meaty but still tender. The marinade was quite sweet and reminiscent of char siu seasoning. I did not dislike it, but the flavor was a bit too strong for me to order again. *Salt And Pepper Shrimp: interestingly made with baby shrimp instead of standard size. The larger surface area picked up a lot of salt and pepper. Not offensive, though I prefer the natural flavor from shell on shrimp. *Hot Sour Soup With Tofu And Egg: one of the best versions I have tried. It had an intense spice and umami flavor with a great mix of tofu, mushrooms, and roots. *Egg Scallion Fried Rice: surprisingly the biggest hit. Fragrant scallion flavor ran through fluffy rice and egg. It was not overly oily, and we could have eaten multiple bowls on its own. *Stir Fried Shrimp Lo Mein: not my favorite version since it was quite oily. The baby shrimp felt like an insignificant protein, and the noodles were not pleasantly chewy. *Steamed Shrimp And Pork Shumai: the ratio leaned heavily toward shrimp. I wished there was more pork, as the shrimp was relatively under seasoned. The skin was nicely thin, and the dumplings were generously filled. *Chili Oil Pork And Shrimp Wonton: the dumpling skin was too thick, and the sauce was bland. It tasted more like savory sesame oil with very little spice or vinegar. *Steamed Pork Rib With Pumpkin: arrived lukewarm. The ribs were still tender and savory, and the pumpkin was naturally sweet, though I wish it had been hotter and softer. *Cantonese Style Chicken Feet: delicious with soft, gelatinous texture. The marinade was savory with a subtle sweetness that complemented the skin without overpowering it. *Signature Pork Soup Dumpling: filled with rich, fatty broth. The pork was tender and slightly sweet. The dumpling skin could have been thinner, but the texture was still enjoyable. These clearly tasted freshly made. *Vegan Chili Oil Hand Pulled Noodle: the chili oil was mild again, but the noodles were excellent. They had a rustic cut and were incredibly bouncy and chewy. *Glutinous Rice Ball With Egg And Rice Wine: not too sweet with a slight alcoholic finish. A nice, lighter ending compared to the other carb heavy desserts. While most dishes were not mind blowing, the overall quality ranged from satisfactory to great. We tried a wide spread and I appreciated the mix of traditional Chinese dishes, vegan options, dim sum, and dessert. For the price, it offers good value, though there is room for improvement in service, chili oil, condiments, and beverages.

    I am so glad my fellow Yelp Elite friend, Joy B., recommended Peter Chang Gaithersburg recently. I haven't been in the area for awhile and I was hoping to find a better place than China Gardens for me and my mom to get dimsum from. This place was absolutely perfect for the said occasion! They have a flat AYCE price for all the delicious dimsum, small plates, and other items like desert listed on the menu. I loved everything I got to try out. The spicy eggplants were melt in the mouth tender and had a nice flavor of spiciness and savoriness. Same with the dan dan noodles. The classic har gow, lotus leaf wrapped sticky rice, the pork buns were also delicious. And the white chocolate walnut buns that Joy told me about?! Give me 2 dozens of those please!!! I'm drooling just remembering about the feast I had with my mom and can't wait to revisit! Lastly, parking is free in the lot and leftovers are $10 /per box to take home. It's best to order everything in the beginning all at once as service can be slow and wait times vary.

    What a way to celebrate the first day of the new year! We enjoyed the A.Y.C. E. Menu at Peter Changs. The food was delicious! We started off with the Mongolian beef with scallions. The meat was tender and the sauce was flavorful. Then, we had some egg drop and sweet and sour soup. Both were tasty. My dining companions had the spicy dried fish and they really liked it. Next, we ordered the shrimp low mein and the egg and scallion fried rice. Both were enjoyable. Yes, we kept ordering... the popcorn chicken was fabulous. After that we ordered the Peking Duck. That was not on the AYCE menu. The Peking Duck was a show stopper. Elegantly plated, tender duck with crispy skin, served with cucumber and scallion matchsticks,pancakes, and a tasty plum sauce for dipping. It was excellent! We also ordered the tofu and mushroom dish, which was very good. We capped off the meal with a white chocolate lava Bao. It was delicious. Lastly, we tried the fried rice cakes with honey sauce. Service was excellent. Thank you, Jean for the fantastic service. She was terrific. The restaurant has a lovely and comfortable ambiance with comfortable seating. This was a perfect way to start the year! Happy 2026, year of the horse!

    They really ate with the $28 all you can eat! Be warned that it's only for two hours though and if you're a slow eater like me those two hours go by quick! I will say we got to try quite a bit of the menu and left feeling stuffed. I've had better Chinese food which is why I wasn't amazingly impressed but I would for sure go again if I needed to pick a quick lunch spot with a friend. Share plates with people you go with that way you get more variety of the menu. I would say you could share the plate with 1 other people because they are relatively small. Some of the standouts: pan fried pork dumpling, twice baked pork belly, vegan cucumber salad

    What can I say about Peter Chang's that hasn't already been said? They are awesome and one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the area. I have a go to takeout order from here, but honestly everything on the menu is phenomenal. Occasionally there can be some inconsistent dishes, but it's only happened a few times for me. I personally love the Ginger & Scallion Steamed Branzino, one of my absolute favorites. Their chow fun is also really good, with wide noodles that stand out compared to the other Chinese restaurants I've had it at. You have to, at minimum, get the egg scallion fried rice, spicy fried bamboo fish, spicy cumin lamb, spicy dry fried eggplant, and the mixed mushroom with tofu. I know that's a lot, but they are all super delicious. I probably order from here at least once a month. Inside, the restaurant isn't huge, but it's a decent size and has a couple big tables to accommodate larger parties. All in all, this place has earned a permanent spot in my rotation. The food is great, the flavors are bold, and even with the occasional inconsistency, it's still one of the best Chinese restaurants around.

    Came here on a President's day holiday and had their AYCE $28 menu. We made sure that they had the AYCE dim sum menu and they did. This is uncommon since most AYCE places love the money grab and get rid of any of their specials menus on holidays and weekends. But they had it. We ordered most of their menu and i didn't have any bad dishes. Almost everything was pretty good. Of highlight was the farmer's stirfry and the tofu wrapped fillings, fried eggplant and all of their lomein and fried rices are good. Their spicy fried crispy chicken is probably the better of all the chicken dishes. Service was really good. The server was attentive and kept on coming back to take the order. He did miss a couple but made up for it by coming back with the correction. FYI when you have a big table they will calibrate the portion of the dishes to the amount of people at the table.

    Chili Oil Pork Wontons (5 pcs)
    Kiana M.

    First time trying out Peter Chang's and I was a little disappointed. The food was decent but nothing to brag about. I ordered the chili oil wontons, combination friend rice and the sesame general tso chicken. For the price I expected the food to be a little better. The chili oil wontons were extremely salty and unfortunately I could not eat them. I enjoyed the combination fried rice which had shrimp, beef, and chicken in it. That was very delicious. And the general tso chicken was average. Nothing spectacular. The service was great as I did take out. My order was ready as soon as I walked in. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice. Aesthetically it gave a high end Chinese restaurant. Overall, I had a good experience. I would order again but maybe try some other option.

    Delicate and made to order (although a preset menu). Doesn't taste like typical AYCE buffet - more delicate and authentic. Although half through the meal, we realized we ordered too many fried food. Lol.

    Wow.. Amazing china's food.. We started with the bubble cake, it was with a curry sauce. The crispy beet was sweet and super crispy. The popcorn chicken was sticky, but so delicious. Chicken fried rice. All of the food was seasoned well and tasted so delicious. Lastly the service by Kevin was excellent. He treated us with great hospitality and professionalism. I highly recommend this relaxing restaurant.

    Lemoncello Crispy Shrimp
    Iva N.

    This place has been going towards top of my lists around the area. From the dumplings, soup dumplings, rice and noodles dish, all time favorite Lemoncello crispy chicken aka Honey walnut chicken! Now on our last visit, we had room for dessert and ended up taking our server recommendations for Creamy Walnut Custard bun... omg now will need to make sure we always have to for this! Service has always been great, prob been here at least 4-5 times so far.. lol. Always friendly , attentive, brought me my chili oil (a must) .. lol. A nice elegant decor that welcomes you as you walked in the front door and all around dining area.

    One of my favorite restaurants recently closed, so I've been on the hunt for a good replacement. I had driven past Peter Chang for a few months and finally decided to give it a try, and I think I may have found my new go-to spot. The restaurant has nice décor, and the tables are well spaced so you're not sitting right on top of other diners. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the food came out surprisingly fast. One dish you absolutely have to try is the handmade noodles with hot chili oil. The noodles are ridiculously chewy, fresh, and packed with texture. The first bite instantly told me these were the real deal. If you enjoy handmade noodles, this dish alone is worth the visit. We also ordered the duck, bok choy with dried tofu, and a scallop and shrimp dish. Everything we tried was flavorful and well prepared. This feels like one of those places where you could easily work your way through the entire menu. I also learned they offer daily bottomless dim sum, which I'm definitely planning to come back and try. Free parking is available. If you're in the area and craving great Chinese food, Peter Chang is absolutely worth a visit.

    Peter Chang is a great spot for some dim sum! First, the service. Very attentive, nice, and welcoming. When you have an empty plate, consider it gone as it disappears. When your water cup is slightly under full, it is topped off. Second, the food. Food came out fresh and hot. Noodle dishes have great chew to the noodles. Shu mai and dumpling dishes are flavorful. There were some dishes not pictured like the Scallion pancake, signature pork soup Dumpling, firecracker shrimp egg rolls, Chinese lamb burger, and Taiwanese popcorn chicken. The restaurant was very clean and well-spaced. Definitely a great spot!

    Stopped by Far East Restaurant for dim sum recently and was so happy to see dine-in seating fully…read moreback again after COVID -- it really brings back the classic dim sum experience. We arrived right when they opened around 11 AM on a weekend and were seated immediately since it wasn't too busy yet. One thing to note is that the entire party needs to be present before being seated, which they enforce, but it helps keep things moving smoothly once you're inside. The service felt traditional and efficient, with attentive push carts circulating constantly, making it easy to see what's fresh and grab dishes as they come by. The staff were also accommodating with a baby seat, which made the visit comfortable for families. The steamed cart is always my favorite, and Far East does it well. Standouts for me were the shrimp rice crepe (silky and delicate), shrimp dumplings (har gow) with plump, juicy filling, and the steamed ribs, which were tender and flavorful. The chicken feet and tripe were also well prepared -- classic dim sum staples done right. I also loved the sticky rice, which was fragrant and satisfying, along with two must-order bakery items: the pineapple buns and egg tarts. Both were fresh and comforting, with the egg tarts having that perfect balance of flaky crust and smooth custard. Overall, Far East delivers a solid, traditional dim sum experience -- lively carts, reliable favorites, and a welcoming environment for groups and families. Great spot to gather, share dishes, and enjoy a relaxed weekend dim sum meal. Definitely glad to have seating back again.

We especially enjoyed some steamed shrimp dumplings, noodle dishes and fried rice. I loved the stuffed eggplant. The restaurant got very busy around noon, but the fast and attentive service stayed consistent. We felt like we got a good price for a vast amount of dishes. We were happy with the experience.

That said, I probably wouldn't come back. I felt extremely thirsty after getting home, which made me think the dishes were pretty heavy on MSG. They also forgot the wide noodles we ordered and only brought them out later. By then, they hadn't been cooked together with the tomato broth, so it completely missed the essence. In terms of value, we only ordered three set meals plus one extra wide noodles, and the total came out to over a hundred. For what we got, the value felt pretty average. We then went to another restaurant in the next day, ordered six dishes plus drinks, and still spent less --with much more variety in flavors.

Ordered the beef combo knife slice noodle soup, pork soup dumplings, pork wontons with homemade spicy sauce, and the pan fried pork buns. The pan fried pork buns were the clear MVP here, perfectly crispy on the outside with that satisfying crunch, but soft and fluffy inside. Super filling too, which is always a win in my book. The beef noodle soup was solid comfort food with good portions, and the dumplings hit the spot. Only minor thing - I wished the "spicy sauce" had more kick to it. Could've used some extra heat, but that's me being picky. For the price and portion sizes, this place delivers (pun intended). You're getting a solid amount of food that actually tastes good. Would definitely order again, and those pork buns are going to be a repeat item for sure.
