Quaint place with a personal feel. Dinner was awesome. It's only one block from my home, so they should get used to seeing me more and more.

I usually get Kung pao at American Chinese places, and this was one of the top 3 Kung Paos I had (other two were in Bangkok Chinatown). Better than expected food, high quality even. Only complaint is the hot and sour soup was stingy for 4 dollars, didn't even want to take a picture of it.

It’s more expensive than other Chinese restaurants in the area, but the customer service is excellent and the food never disappoints. I’m genuinely impressed by the quality of the food. It’s Much much better than Great Wall and golden panda. I will be ordering from here again.

Doing it the right way after all these years. First time in and I was instantly reminded of the good old days eating with my family as a kid at our favorite chinese restaurant when the food was just better. Potstickers, hot and sour soup( with pork in it) and lots of nostalgia for some good American Chinese food!

Best Chinese food in town, but is always shouting at his high school employees. Bummer.

American Chinese food but at a really high standard. The cheese wontons are some of the best I’ve had in Denver- lots of filling and really fresh! The walnut shrimp was perfectly sauced with caramelised walnuts and juicy, plentiful breaded shrimp. The beef noodles brimming with flavor, and mushu pork too - the aromatics shine in their dishes but well balanced with the protein. They don’t skimp on quality or quantity and have a great variety I plan to work my way through.

Peters doesn't care if they lose customers. Apparently they are so successful that customers can be treated rudely no matter what. I am allergic to egg. The bottom half of my box of "white" rice was full of scrambled egg. When I called about, I was told that that was how they did it and I could get another box if I want. Goodbye. Another box of rice with egg that will give me a migraine? I don't think so. They don't give the care to food prep that should be required AND it doesn't matter how you talk to people. I'm done with Peter's. I don't recommend anyone go there.

The signage and lack of seating in the dinning area should be enough to let you know this place is legit. Peter is usually on site, grumpy, and phenomenal. This is old Denver at its finest.

Called in order paid cash 41.02 plus tip 10.00 the ordered was wrong I called the guy on phone very rude and upset I told him my order and that ordered extra tofu in my soup instead I got extra veggies in beef and snow peas. First he said he would send out new soup as I was telling about the entree he got mad Saud I won't charge for your meal and you ate banned from ordering here again! WOW!! AND I NEVER RECEIVED A REFUND AS I HAD PAID CASH! POOR MANAGEMENT HES GOT ANGER ISSUES. He did tell new girl didn't put order in right and that's fine I can understand that but to get nasty with me and told I can't place ordered ever agsin is just plain wrong.

OMG! Some of the best Chinese foods I've had in a long time. And the owners are so nice and friendly. And portions are huge. Beef chow fun and sesame chicken and their pork dumplings are to die for.

I went there about 2 months ago, and the General Tso's chicken was amazing. I went back last night for dinner, I was highly disappointed and surprised. I was expecting the same quality that I received a few months back. The chicken didn't taste right and the quality was definitely not like when I first went. Add to that, the fried rice was horrible and was just seasoned rice with a few pieces of eggs. Overall, the meal was disappointing.
