I've been ordering from this restaurant for years and years. I was out of their delivery zone for awhile but was so excited to come back about a year and a half ago.But these PEOPLE who work here? Omg they're the best. We order once or twice a month and we always get a few orders of crab rangoon(they literally have the best crab rangoon I've ever tried), some lo mein, fried rice, and some general tsos(they're also one of the only places that will actually make it spicy for me, even though it's supposed to be a spicy dish) and every now and then we'll add some dumplings or egg rolls or something.Well, yesterday, we decided to completely change up our order. I really wanted to try the empress chicken (it was so good, btw) and my guy wanted chow mein. They literally called us after we put in our online order just to check that we didn't make a mistake because it's different from what we usually get. That felt SO GOOD. Like they actually care about us. They're always amazing but that's just taking customer care to the next level.I will be a patron of this establishment as long as they're around. I already won't order Chinese from anywhere else but now it's for life.Thank you, Lao Peking for making great food and caring about your loyal customers.

I've been going to Lao Peking since I moved here in 2007. Of all the Chinese restaurants and buffets, this is the only one for me! The food is always freshly made, hot, and delicious. Janet, the owner, is always friendly and hardworking, either at the counter, taking orders, or in the kitchen.When family comes to visit from out of state, they "demand" Lao Peking food. I especially recommend the All Day Carryout Specials meals. They have very generous portions.One negative, I miss the dine-in area. I have a lot of fond memories of great meals with friends, family, and colleagues alike. ❤️

I really enjoy shrimp not over cooked. The delivery is very friendly. I recommend this especially for locals.

We usually get the same thing and its really good, though the portion sizes (like everything else in town) have gotten smaller. Ordered several other items from the menu that we haven't before - the lomein (sp?) was mushy :( I also had issues with the amount charged for a condiment - I called back the day after and they immediately fixed it. Overall, good food,

Chicken curry tasted like chicken ramen noodle seasoning was in it. The fried rice is disgusting like they put too much sesame oil in it or something. There was big chunks of undercooked onions in my kids rice, and the egg rolls we're ok but not impressed and a little on the tiny side. Definitely won't be going back!

Has standard Chinese food menu. Usually quick service and food tastes good.
Unfortunately, still carry-out only (they never reopened dining room after COVID) but the food is great and Lunch Specials are a fantastic deal. Ordering ahead via website is easy and order prep is FAST. Great carryout lunch option with prices that rival or beat fast food chain prices.

Would never order from them again. We had an honest mistake that my dogs got our during delivery. They literally tried to bribe me and tell me they would NOT call the cops if I paid them more money for my dog chasing snd scaring the driver. Dude bit himself on his lip and blamed my dogs. Claimed I didn't have a sign but I did saying beware of dog on my window. Have the recordings and all where he stated his manager asked him to ask me for a "bigger tip" for the damages my dog didn't even cause. Food isn't even that good. Taste like dirty oil

For how much you pay and how much you recieve, I feel as if you're getting burned for its price. Was looking for a new Chinese place to eat but I think ill skip this place and just use my old location if I want plenty of left overs. There's also this mini store of the most random things to sell and just feels like it doesn't belong there.

My chicken tasted freezer burnt. The quality of the food has definitely dropped.
