Peking - Midlothian

I was here many times a year ago, but I had my criticism of old Beijing and not the new Beijing. I decided to order a few takeouts for my family and was sad to say that this made the reason of my list for the worst Chinese takeout I ever had. I compare this to find a random metal wire in my Chinese food from a beginner in Charlottesville, who was even more edible than this experience 's. I ordered the Sizzling Delight and Hunan Chicken. Both were loaded with this terrible taste of what I think is Five Spice or in case of scallops, just less than fresh ingredients. I took an inconspicuous and eager first bite from some of the scallops in the Sizzling Delight and was immediately rejected by a heavy aroma and taste that I spit it out. I eat a little less than half of each plate to see if the whole dish was like that, not the $28 I had just spent wasting. Sad to say, both dishes have the revolting taste. Never come back.

It?s now been an hour and 25 minutes since I ordered delivery. No answer at the restaurant, as they closed 45 minutes ago. No food, but they certainly took my order and money! They?ve got my phone number, so if they couldn?t make it happen, they at least owe me an explanation (and refund, of course). It was my first time trying New Peking, even though I?ve lived here for decades. I thought I?d get it quickly since I?m only 4 miles away. Everyone raves about the super fast delivery....at this point, even if it shows up, it?s going to be dreadful. I?ll be calling for a FULL REFUND tomorrow...

We are so disappointed! We ordered here to try something new and the food as well as the service was pretty bad. We could barely eat any of it. We ordered steam dumplings they had clearly sat out for most of the day. They were brown, hard, and cracked? Spring rolls were burnt and mushy inside. We called we were offer an apology and a promise the next time we order we?d receive a credit. Next time? With no attempt to correct or remake our food just tells me they can?t because they are fine with serving this kind of food. Um, no! We will not be ordering again! We wasted our money!

Descent food, especially on Sunday's for brunch. Food use to be excellent but has gone downhill under new management. Good wait staff.

They have an extremely good Sunday brunch. It's a buffet, but the food selection is excellent. Service is always great. The decor is upscale (even though you always see people in shorts, t-shirts and ball caps), so you don't feel like you're in a cafeteria. Food on other days is always good, too. Always my first choice for Chinese.
