Decent chinese food ”

Their food is way overpriced, tables are small, some areas are dirty. ”
- “
trust me its worth the wait for good food. ”
- “
Anyway, we put up with that (although it's never been that bad) and concentrate on the good food. ”
- “
The bottom-line is that they brought a full-blown chinese banquet (which had a lot more food than the actual two-person pekin duck dish) which I ate without regret as the food was great. ”
- “
Most good Peking Duck places will also prepare and serve the first sandwich. ”
- “
The duck meat is moist and the skin is crispy. ”

The accompanying vegetables have been fresh 95% of the time, and the pancakes are always excellent. ”

Bad food! ”

He suggested me to order two plates (crispy duck and some kind of pork), which he said would be just good enough for one person. ”

Overall, the food here was terrible! ”
- “
Second the duck was dry, seemed stale, and the pancake wraps were more like Mexican cuisine tortillas. ”
- “
really liked the duck and the sauce, i did not experience any discrimination, but I am not asian. ”
- “
Seeing the duck wheeled out and sliced in front of you is not only very interesting, it adds a nice show element to the meal. ”

Worst part is the duck was $40 and they didn't even use authentic wrap. ”

This is a big tourist trap: overprice + second class food. ”

The service is always good and the food is excellent. ”

All in all, a terrible meal. ”

The decor is actually pretty nice for Chinatown, but the food and service was lacking. ”

The food was simply amazing. ”

They refuse to serve after dinner to us oranges after a so expensive meal. ”
- “
The service is about as good as any Asian restaurant I have eaten at and the food (spring rolls, dumplings, a chicken and beef entree) was of a fairly good standard. ”
- “
So I ate my paltry, albeit expensive meal, gave no tip, and silently stewed all the way home. ”
- “
The skin was overly burnt and the meat was dry, as if someone forgot the duck in a deep fryer. ”
- “
The duck was cold and bland; the vegetable dish we ordered was soggy; the lamb dish was just salty! ”
- “
SO my wife and I walked up to the cashier and ask if we were supposed to go to her, she looked at us with this annoying look and roll her eyes back like we are begging for food, without saying a word she walked away and disappeared in the crowed, came bac ”

If you are in China Town this is the place to have a nice chinese cuisine meal whether it´s a pekin duck or any other dish. ”
