Fast forward to today. $18 cocktails, $80 duck, $49 Leek Spouts with Shrimp. The portraits have yellowed with age, the staff is still very helpful, but balance it once had is off kilter now. It’s still next to a convenience store, in a strip mall, is fine overall food, but the prices are higher than downtown DC. In my opinion, the prices are just too high for the level of food.
The ambiance is gorgeous, the decor is history, with pictures of patrons from wall to wall.
The servers and staff are professionally dressed, I felt underdressed
Walked into the place around 2:50pm, as i read through the menu, and decide on the lunch special, the waiter says, sorry but it’s after 3pm (3:02pm) no more lunch special. Bummed, as now the prices from lunch to dinner are a 3-4 dollar amount difference, portion might be larger, but for one person, I didn’t need more of just one dish, I wanted variety.
Everything was just basic, and the fried calamari’s funnel cake like batter was quite sweet and greasy for me.
The wonton soup had a thick wrapper, well stuffed, not bad
Fried Rice was delicious, loaded with meat and shrimp, worth the value
Will go back to try the famous Duck when I have enough people to share it with, as it is at least $100 for the table service.
Their signature Peking Duck is the star of the show. It comes out perfectly roasted, and the staff slices it right in front of you with the kind of precision that turns dinner into a performance. The crispy skin, the warm homemade pancakes, the fresh scallions grown on their own farm every detail is next-level.
The restaurant itself is spacious and classic, but don’t let that fool you it gets busy fast. Reservations are definitely recommended. Parking can be tough (the lot is small and always packed), but once you’re inside and tasting that duck, you’ll realize it was absolutely worth the effort.
Probably in a large group setting cost will get diluted, but still found prices too high for the experience and the food itself. Happy to have a second go to try other dishes, but I was not impressed.
Food wise the Snow peas with roasted garlic were very good, the ribs appetizer was ok, the rice and lo mein were also ok, and the famous Peking duck was a 7 out of 10 (the pancakes were dry & flour forward).
The service was outstanding and as polite as was in the past. We tried the Walnut Shrimp and Beef and pepper dishes. The walnut shrimp was also disappointing. The batter was too thick, with a heavy sweet and sour sauce which absolutely drowned the shrimp and made it soggy.
We had been to Peking Inn for decades but first time returning since covid pandemic. Its signature dish needs improvement. Will not return anytime soon.
We were lucky to get table for 4 person while came in for take away Peking .
Definitely coming back again soon!
