" My experience at Peking Express was underwhelming. The fried rice was strangely tasteless and the egg rolls could have used a bit more flavor. I appreciate the friendly service, but the food was a letdown. I guess with so many places to choose from in the area, I may not return for a second try. It just felt average and not memorable at all. " (*Curated Review*)

" Peking Express is good for a quick meal but don’t expect lavish eating conditions. I was thankful they were considerate with my order, but the food itself was okay. The chicken in my dish was cut way too small and didn’t deliver the usual satisfaction I expect from Chinese food. It will be hard for me to recommend this place to my friends when there are better options around. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my first time ordering from Peking Express, and I had high hopes based on the reviews. I tried the sesame chicken, which was scrumptious. The sauce was rich and not overly sweet. While waiting, I noticed the seating area could use some updates; it felt like it needed a good clean. Nevertheless, I would definitely order takeout again. A good option for any craving for Chinese! " (*Curated Review*)

" Let's just say, I am a huge food enthusiast and when it comes to Chinese food, Peking Express is a part of my regular rotation. They really get the flavors spot on, especially in their kung pao chicken. The shrimp fried rice is another personal favorite; it's always packed with shrimp and has just the right amount of seasoning. Paying for their lunch special has been a great deal for me. Plus, who can resist that fast delivery? I'm hinting for them to expand their dessert options next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I probably won’t be back. Although the order was delivered on time, I found that my crab rangoon was filled with far too little filling and tasted mediocre at best. I ordered a combination fried rice as well and it was bland, lacking the rich flavors you usually expect. It's disappointing especially since I've heard some good things about their dumplings. It just seems like they weren't trying hard enough on the staples. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for decent Chinese takeout, you might want to give this place a shot. The mixed vegetables were fresh and crunchy, which was a pleasant surprise. However, I noticed a few inconsistencies with my friends’ orders, which came out wrong. Also, the ambiance could be better if you choose to try. But for what it’s worth, the price is fair for the quantity. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I'd say Peking Express does the job for a late-night craving. The prices for their portions are fair, just don't expect a fine dining experience. My favorite dish has to be Beef Chow Fun, which is quite excellent! Their delivery is always timely, and for takeout, it serves its purpose perfectly. I think upon visiting next, dining inside might not be the best idea. " (*Curated Review*)
