Peking Garden Chinese Restaurant

Peking Garden is simply some of the best, most authentic chinese food in Raleigh and its longevity is testimony to that. It is a small, intimate restaurant with a cool koi pond just as you enter. The menu is very extensive, with what the typical American diner would consider unusual, rare, even bizarre foods. Luckily, they have standard Chinese favorites, too. We love the fact that they deliver, offer brown rice (for $1.00 extra), and have excellent wait staff. The prices are higher than the quik-stop Chinese buffet establishments, but the food is of much higher quality.

I love this place. The food is always good, the service is fine, and I have never had trouble getting a table. The portions are large, and reasonably priced. I love the Black Pepper Steak - its a nicer cut of meat than you find in most Chinese places, and comes with appetizers making it a good value.

This place is very good. They have a nice ambience with Asian decor, an aquarium and a koi pond. They have the usual Chinese dishes on the menu, but also have a "Authentic Chinese" section of the menu with some interesting choices. Every time we've been, the food was excellent. The main reason I like this restaurant so well is that the ingredients are fresh, and nothing is greasy. My husband likes some of the items on the "authentic" menu, as well as the really spicy dishes. If you like Chinese food, there is something for everyone. For the most part, the service is good, but there have been a few times I was not impressed with the waitstaff.

When I first visited this restaurant, I had nothing but high praises for it, the second time not so bad, but the third time the service was awful. I don't know, may be I went at a bad time, but I must say that the food is good, but not good enough for the bad service that was received. The prices are pretty high, and seating is limited.
