I had not been to Peking Media since the pandemic. They have not missed a beat. Their food is still flavorful, the sushi is fresh and I enjoyed the quiet ambiance. Our waiter was a little occupied at times but I’ll give that a pass. I was so excited to go back I forgot to take pictures of the amazing food.

Soooo here’s another restaurant that I had HIGH hopes for because of the reviews but yet again hubby and I were disappointed my food came out ice cold after we waited for 30min the waiter was accommodating and he took care of the situation but when he bought me my food the shrimps were fried so hard!! Even though this wasn’t the best experience the waiter was very nice

I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Pikan Media in Philly, and let me tell you—it was a full-blown flavor journey. The Chinese and Japanese fusion was executed flawlessly. The sushi? Sharp, fresh, and buttery perfection. That salmon’s marbling alone deserves its own standing ovation. I’m STILL thinking about the sautéed string beans in that garlicky brown sauce—mouthwatering!
Now let me give a massive shout-out to Linda—our amazing host. She welcomed us in at 8:45pm with a smile, knowing they close at 9:30pm. That kind of warmth and hospitality? Rare. She made us feel like we had all the time in the world to enjoy our meal.
And the food did not disappoint. The tamago was like a cloud of savory sweetness—fluffy, mellow, decadent. Paired with their creative “zangria” and a shot of smooth sake, it was the perfect nightcap. I left tipsy, full, and grinning from ear to ear. Pikan Media, you did THAT. Highly recommend.

WHY doesn’t this restaurant have HUNDREDS more RAVING 5 star reviews??! THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE VERY BEST OF THE BEST CHINESE/JAPANESE FOOD IVE EVER HAD. Me and my boyfriend both are stuck with our jaws on the floor every time we eat from this restaurant, the food is so OVER THE TOP, beyond INCREDIBLE. It doesn’t matter what you order! We have ordered so many dishes from the Chinese side AND from the Japanese side and every time any dish comes out, we say “this is the best (“name of dish”) that I’ve ever freaking had”. Every time no matter WHAT we order. The service is impeccable. The woman who owns the restaurant is a DOLL, always dressed up in the cutest, most professional outfits and she knows her customers by name. Also, the main male that works there is so kind and really cool. The very first time we went there, my boyfriend left his phone there on accident, and the male worker literally ran down the street after us to give it back, as we were already in the car, unaware that he had left it. They give the most delicious complimentary cucumber salad and spicy peanuts before every meal if you dine in, but pick up is just as good, the food is always hot when I get home to eat it, and the quality just simply never fades. This is CERTAINLY a staple in my family’s “order out” restaurants, we probably eat here once a week. And will be eating tonight, in fact! Long story short, do yourself THE BIGGEST FAVOR and pick PEKING MEDIA every time for your Chinese and Japanese cuisine needs!!

This has always been my favorite Chinese restaurant. This time I was very disappointed. General Taso chicken was not flavorful. You use to get white meat chicken but this time it was dark meat. The chicken was not crispy as it’s always been.There was sauce on the broccoli in which it was slivers of broccoli and not the florets. The shrimp egg foo young was ok but not as good as the previous times I have ordered. Maybe the cooks have changed or the ownership. Very disappointing.

Actually pretty authentic and good Chinese food. And large portion of food consider the price. I love the cilantro beef egg drop soup!
The black pepper lamb rack is also quite good!

Take out review:
Gorgeous restaurant inside, beautiful decors and interiors. Their menu also broad like other Asian restaurants, includes variety of dishes with beef pork duck, chicken, seafood and vegetables.
We put in a take order with them. The order was prepared within estimated half an hour time. We liked the beef dishes, thin noodles. Triple crown (shrimp, scallop, chicken) was also good.
The royal crown duck was disappointing. It was on the dryer side, not enough seasoning on it. The pancake was deep fried too much.
They were very generous with us, gave us lots of side dishes, utensils and fortune cookies. Loved their FC, as its mixed with chocolate.

We have gotten take out from here during the pandemic, and thought it was decent. We dined in for the first time today, and we are thoroughly impressed. First of all, the complimentary dishes were chilled marinated cucumbers and salted roasted peanuts. This was a Margaret Kuo’s tradition and I think they even perfected the cucumbers because we asked for another and finished both plates. The owner bought the restaurant from Margaret Kuo who had previously been there for thirty some years. I had an Asian Pear Saketini. The drink was nice and strong just how I like it. I would have just added a garnish, or a pear slice into the martini glass to make it look more presentable. I would order it again! Off of the menu, we ordered a typical Szechuan appetizer with beef slices, tendon, and stomach lining in chili oil. The peanuts in the dish were fresh. The flavor was authentic and excellent. We ordered Taiwanese Fishball Soup. We got an extra Fujianese Fishball which has pork in the center, and which was actually more fresh than the Taiwanese fishballs! The broth tasted great, just like the way our mom’s made it with white pepper and celery. They even added pea leaves, which is a generous addition. Next came the Oshinko (Japanese pickles) sushi rolls. The seaweed could have been a better quality. They were not crispy at all, and were cut too short, so did not close. However, the amount of oshinko put inside was generous. The pickled ginger was also great to taste. The Beef (Chow Fun) Stir Fried Wide Rice Noodles was a very good standard to pass. It was not too oily or salty. It was certainly on point. I also asked for a dish with tofu and fish, so they custom made a dish for us with Chilean sea bass and tofu. They fried both items and added a light sauce to it over Chinese broccoli. It was delectable and also great to have with white rice. Our last dish was flash fried chili popcorn chicken. This was the only dish we did not enjoy, which I honestly and politely reported. There was too much breading and not enough chicken. It was crispy and the flavor was correct, however I just could not get enough chicken even in the big bits. However, this was also off the menu and the owner just decided they could make it for us since it is my husband’s favorite dish. We later chatted with the owner, Linda at the end of dinner and she told how grateful she was for letting us know since she would not have a way of knowing how to improve. She is a lovely person and we could hear her warm heart as she served each table. Two other constructive criticism I have are: there was a crack on the lamp above my table, the lights around the whole room occasionally flickered, and the number of paper towels that dispensed from the ladies room was a little much. The ambiance was not any different from when it was Margaret Kuo’s of Media. I would definitely go back bringing my neighbors and friends especially for Dining Under the Stars in the summer time. I would love to chat with the owner some more because she was truly a beautiful person and hard working single mom. I would also try some more dishes, cocktails, and sashimi on and off the menu. I am grateful that this restaurant is in my local area.

Dine-In, The service was decent, and the food was average. The atmosphere was okay nothing particularly stood out. Overall, it was a decent dining experience, but I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to dine there again
