Friendly service. The Satay Chicken was hot and tasty. The mild spice option was pretty zippy, but that is more my issue than theirs. A solid offering.
Great chicken and steak dishes, cooked well and not overly sauced like many American Chinese restaurants. Food is always fresh. The Dim Sum is also very good with a big menu. Hard to find dim sum in Milwaukee but they do it best. Service is prompt and courteous. Great prices too. Nice dining area.
Amazing fried rice and egg foo young. My office is in the area, so I go there often to grab lunch. The prices are low for the amount and quality of food you get. As others mentioned the inside of the restaurant needs some work, which might explain why no one is ever there. I just get carry outs myself so I can't speak for the service, but the food is exceptional. There are a lot of Chinese restaurants in the area, but I always find myself going back to the peony.
This restaurant deserves 5 stars. I keep coming back because everything I've tried so far is exciting and delicious. The Peking Duck is remarkably authentic. The Dim Sum is delicious, well-presented, and varied in choices. The interior is a little dark, due to lack of windows, but it is otherwise very clean and pleasant. The staff were very kind and helpful. My wife and I were given tips for Dim Sum, and helpful instruction on how to eat other Chinese dishes. If you want excellent food with a little adventure, I recommend this place.
Great food & service. I had the chicken with Chinese vegetables with garlic & black bean sauce. Chicken was very tender, veggies cooked perfectly & the sauce very tasty. Great bowl of egg drop soup to start. Nice cloth tablecloth & pleasant surroundings.
I went to Peony Restaurant 8 years ago, and decided to go again with my wife and a friend for a Thanksgiving meal. I was a little worried with the poor reviews, but food was generally great. I really liked the fried taro rice cake and the sticky rice in lotus leaf, but the steamed chicken buns were only so so. Main dishes were also great, and they threw in a complimentary potstickers as a thanks for our business on what otherwise would be a quiet day for them.
We're new to the area and were quite uncertain and reluctant about trying a new Chinese restaurant. After reading the other positive reviews, we decided to give it a shot. Excellent!!! The people were wonderful, it was very clean and the food was so delicious. Very authentic and not greasy at all. I can't say enough for how great our first experience was :)
Excellent food. Order from the dum sum menu and your adventurousness will be paid off. Best salty peppery squid on the planet. Do take the waitresses recommendation, she is in owner and really knows what she's talking about. The price is always right as well.
Food is delicious. But environment is way too dark and do these people ever smile?
Good news is that they do deliver. In which case you may enjoy delicious food at home/work and a non-smiling lady will drive through the snow to get your food to you.
Delicious food, great service! We only go for the dim sum, but the other menu items are great too. Milwaukee's best kept secret! We've been going there for years and it's always a pleasant experience.
