" My husband and I recently tried Downey Peking after hearing so many wonderful things. The service was friendly, but it was obvious that they were a bit overwhelmed that night. We both ordered different dishes, but neither of us felt completely satisfied with our meals. The flavors were there, but they fell short of my expectations. I might give it another shot for takeout rather than dining in next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was fair. The place had good reviews, but my dish had way too much sauce. I felt like I was floating in it! The service was nice, but they missed a step on checking in on how my meal was. Although that said, the egg drop soup was decent. I might give it another chance, especially since many people seemed to be enjoying their meals. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Downey Peking! The place has a delightful homey atmosphere that is perfect for family gatherings. The staff treat you like you're part of their family, and the food quality is top-notch. I always recommend their spicy seafood noodles and orange chicken. The portion sizes are also quite generous. Whether dining in or taking out, this restaurant is a winner! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited after hearing about the hype, and while I found the food to be decent, it didn’t quite live up to my expectations. The service was friendly, but the wait for food was longer than anticipated. I ordered a variety of dishes, but found that the sweet and sour pork left much to be desired—it tasted more like ketchup than a sauce. On a positive note, the fried rice was quite good and generously portioned. " (*Curated Review*)

" The most disappointing dining experience. I ordered the orange chicken, which was soggy and lacked the zing I expected. On top of that, the service was quite slow, which made the wait even longer and frustrating. When I expressed my concerns, the waiter was polite but didn’t solve the issue, just apologized. I really wanted to enjoy my meal but ended up feeling let down. I might have to think twice before returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has been around for a long time, and you can tell why. It's the food! Everything feels homemade and fresh. The dishes have a depth of flavor that few places can match. While sometimes they can be busy with a wait, it’s always worth it for the taste and portion sizes. This is a staple in our weekend dining choices. " (*Curated Review*)

" After my husband tried it first, I had to check it out. The Peking Beef is simply divine! It's flavorful and cooked to perfection. The service truly made the experience comfortable and relaxing. The ambiance suits any family or casual outing perfectly. I appreciate how they remember your preferences too. Would love to recommend this place to anyone who enjoys quality Chinese food.
