" Had the duck feast with my family. It could have happily fed six! The first course of sliced duck was divine, but I wish the fried rice had more duck flavor. I appreciated how they utilized the entire duck for the soup as well. Service felt a bit scattered but friendly overall. Not the ideal setting for intimate dining as it gets crowded. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally visited Sun Wah BBQ after hearing so much about their duck! It was great! The table-side service for the duck was a thrilling experience, and the bao paired beautifully with the tender meat. However, I felt the other dishes didn't quite match the quality of the duck. Overall, it was a good visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I am a huge fan of Peking duck and have tried it in several places, but none came close to Sun Wah BBQ! It was phenomenal! They serve it with soft bao buns and delicious pickled veggies, which complement the duck perfectly. The service was pretty spot-on, and the atmosphere was vibrant yet cozy. I recommend calling ahead for reservations. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Sun Wah BBQ. The duck was good but didn't have the wow factor I was hoping for after reading the reviews. The fried rice was okay but didn’t stand out among other Chinese restaurants in Chicago. Service was friendly but had some issues during rush hour. Would consider revisiting but with tempered expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming to Sun Wah BBQ for years and it never disappoints. The duck is consistently excellent. The fried rice could be better, but it’s still a staple here. Service can vary during the peak dining times but it’s generally good. The atmosphere is lively and bright; perfect for a family dinner! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience here was somewhat mixed. I absolutely loved the duck; it was juicy and well-prepared. However, the duck fried rice was quite bland and didn't impress me. Service was adequate but not outstanding. The interior could use some sprucing up but overall, I enjoyed my visit and would return for the duck alone! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't express how incredible the Peking duck at Sun Wah BBQ is! The whole dining experience was just delightful. The duck was juicy and incredibly flavorful, and witnessing it carved at the table added a special touch. Highly recommend ordering the whole duck meal to fully enjoy the experience. The sides were good too, though the duck stole the show! " (*Curated Review*)
