I been here once to dine in many years ago. I believe it was when I was still going to school in the area and when I finished I was hungry where I was in need of a meal. At the time I just chose with my instincts since I was very hungry and no longer wanted to browse, so I came upon this spot and gave it a shot. Upon arrival, I remembered I was greeted by their friendly staffs and seated immediately. This place offers spicy dishes, noodle soups, dumplings, wok fried items, small plates and much more to choose from. Everything is made to order here which is always a plus for me since it is quality over quantity and I never mind the wait since I am a very patient person. The staffs here are well trained, understanding and helpful where my visit was a satisfying and issue free one. I highly recommend this place to all Chinese food enthusiasts, if you are willing to try something new, if you are in need of a quick bite just like me or if you just so happen to be in the area to check them out. I will most likely be back to tryout the other delicious options they have to offer.
Fast forwards to present day/my most recent order with this place. I was browsing through DoorDash on a empty stomach and this place popped up, they had many delicious dishes to choose from and that made my appetite grow even bigger. I placed and order and just waited for it to be delivered to me which got me a bit excited since I was hungry and basically revisited this place. Finally the food arrived, it was still warm, but a bit greasy then normal which did not bother me so much since I was in the mood to conquer a meal. I just wish this place lets you adjust your food to your liking on DoorDash, such as no vegetables, light oil, light spice, etc.

First when we arrive they did not greet us. Second, I ordered 4 items to go and the way the the receipt was handed to me was like they were expecting a tip. I’m not eating in or receiving any service that requires a tip. we receive our order and I had asked the guy if we can get soy sauce and hot sauce. He handed us two packs of soy sauce and two packs of hot sauce and we are a family of four. When we arrived home to open the food, the containers weren’t even full. I would never recommend anyone go here.
They purposely keep us on the food and when I asked for soy sauce and hot sauce, they gave us two packs of soy sauce, two packs of hot sauce for our family for there were no fortune cookies in the bag either

A surprisingly appealing interior (with clever wall paper) makes up for the slightly disheveled look from the outside.
A truly Northern Chinese menu, with various items suitable for large format, group dining.
Pork and Preserved Vegetable Noodle Soup met the base standard on delivery. Curious to try more Beijing-style dishes in a city where there are few non-Cantonese options.

I pass by on my commute daily so been wanting to try this place out. The food is good and most of the servings are just right for the price. Except for maybe the Mongolian beef which I think the onion to beef ratio is way too off balance. The shrimp fried rice was a bit bland but the chow mein made up for it. The salt and pepper pork was spot on tho I think would’ve been better if there was a sauce to dip in. Overall, I’d come back.

Beijing Restaurant delivers a truly satisfying Chinese dining experience! Their Kong Bao Chicken is splendid—perfectly balanced with heat, sweetness, and crunch, despite the oil is bit too much ️ The beef is tender and flavorful, while the eggplant is silky and rich, soaking up all the delicious sauce. Every dish is thoughtfully prepared and bursting with authentic flavor. A must-try for lovers of classic Beijing-style cuisine!
Five to six free parking spots next to the restaurant

My friend brought me to Beijing Restaurant, and I ordered 大盤鸡腰带麵 Braised Chicken with Flat Noodles, and 椒鹽里脊 Salt And Pepper Pork! Both were super authentic, packed with flavor, and instantly became my favorites. Good service, great price, and a convenient parking lot. I’d definitely come back again! Highly recommend!

Wonton soup and braised beef tendon are my favorites. I come here for dinner every week and always order these two dishes. They are delicious and have a true local flavor. Each time I come here, it takes me back to my hometown. I highly recommend trying them!

Best place I have had in the city. The best wor won ton soup, amazing boiled fish soup, delicious noodles, crab wonton wraps sooo good. Favorite place in the city and I cannot begin to count how many I have been to…. plus customer PARKING!!! Wish I had more pics but I am convinced it is competitors giving them bad reviews… best chili sauce on table I have tried (not sriracha even though I do enjoy it). Lots of flavors spices I have not ever tasted before. Boiled fish soup doesn’t sound appealing but is the best soup I have ever eaten… ever
***updated with new pictures of smaller order of fish soup and the kung pao chicken style bbq fish. Comes out hot with crispy fried fish in an amazing broth/sauce. It has chicken, tofu, broccoli, sugar snap pears, green onions, etc. Could not eat all of it but another hit! Love this place!!!
