Peking Chinese Restaurant

This place and Heidi are Kansas City Gems! The portion size is unreal. It reminds me of the old spots in NY and Hollywood blvd that have been around for years that are everyone’s night time favorite. It’s a city staple.

My boyfriend and I visited this restaurant and decided to dine in. It closed at 10:30. We got there at 10. The little old lady looked at the clock when we asked could we eat there. Some older man said something in Chinese and she said yes. We get menus and order food . She asked did we want something to drink. I said two glasses of water. She said two bottled waters, their $1.00 each. I said ma’am we want a glass of water. She says we don’t serve water here. I am thinking WTH. She said customers always get orders to go. It’s expensive in this area. I should have left then. She began talking about how her restaurant is the cheapest in the area. I am thinking I don’t care about that. So she stands at our table ranting about the area and how it isn’t a good area. Goes on to say she’s been in business for 35 years. I could barely understand what she was saying. Make no mistakes this is the Chinese restaurant on 36th & Broadway. Then she goes and get a stack of receipts and starts showing us how much ppl have given her for tips so far. I am thinking lady it doesn’t matter I won’t be back. I am not sure if I ate chicken or not. I woke up on Mother’s Day with diarrhea. Food tasted okay but portions were small. Then she asked were we from the area. I said no I live north near the airport. We get the receipt and there’s a charge for $1.00 and a 50 cent charge which I am guessing was for the pitcher of water. NEVER AGAIN…we did leave a cash tip but she didn’t deserve it.

This is the BEST chinese food I have ever had! The spicy sesame chicken is so spicy and delicious! The eggrolls? Perfectly crispy and addicting. Even the beef fried rice was super flavorful! Thank you!

This is easily the best Chinese food in the area. Best flavor and breading on their chicken. Has a nice crisp to it and not soggy like most places. The chicken is seasoned and flavored incredibly well. Comes with large entrees which could definitely be shared. The lady who always rings us up is so so nice. They stay open until 10 and 10:30pm which is nice too.
