The restaurant is located on the corner of Jervois and Herne Bay Roads. They do have a small parking lot behind the building but we ended up parking on the street along Herne Bay Road.
We came by for dinner and did book, which seems to be required since the place was packed. The tables were jammed t
You can have the Peking Duck, 1, 2 or 3 courses. The sesame pockets for the 2nd course is worth a try. This restaurant is famous for the duck, but I found the other dishes average. The deep fried squid and the prawns were very oily and heavily battered. The mix vegetable dish was overly salty, where
My first time dining here and I was quite pleased with the standard of service and food. Menu is quite extensive and although some of the dishes we wanted wasn't available on the night there were still decent options to choose from. I didn't have much of a say in ordering but was happy with what my
Must try to get there during lunch time!! Best food and service when people were not busy. Whole peking duck will be cooked slowly to get better quality!!
Atmosphere is lovely if you like to sit in a hundred years old building.
5 star for the Peking duck! Without the duck I would have rated 4/5. Good for large groups as well - we managed to get a table for 13 people (was a tight squeeze though).
You don't come for the atmosphere that's for sure. You come for the food. And it's quite delicious.
Must order the Peking duck
Hotplate beef
One of the best roast duck I have, the two courses duck coat $75. The overall environment is old but keep in good condition. The staff are helpful and the food is gorgeous. The parking is in the back of restaurant so you want not miss it. The good place for family and friends. VH
We ordered a whole 1 course Peking duck and combination vegetables.
The duck was delicious with crispy skin and the vegetables were yummy too.
Perfectly fed 5 adults.
They were so busy they forgot to serve the rice, so we had to request that near the end of the meal. But the rice was so delicious
Had a Peking Duck banquet. The duck was juicy and crispy. The food was a little bit salty. Love the environment and atmosphere.
A ground breaking experience that will be felt across oceans, he does not come to fill his stomach? Thus he must be here for thy soul to feast, when I walk into this building, I feel as though one day I will die in here… sword in hand as I defend my nation, my people, my peers, this building… from a
I had 2 course meal and few other menus for side and the duck was really good, nice crust with juicy meat. The signature duck was good but the rest of the menu were not up to standard, the beef with vegetable were too salty and the deep fried beef were too sweet.
Amazing food. Peking duck was so good - pre ordering necessary! Had the two course Peking duck and then three mains afterwards - good amount for six people.
Service was efficient and super friendly; will definitely come again!
Nice dinner spot and sour all time favourite.
Best duck you can get in Auckland and the sauce is one of the best. Highly recommend if you are a duck lover.
We came here to celebrate dad's birthday yesterday. The best Peking Duck in Auckland! It's not too oily and very crispy. My husband never tried a peking duck before but he enjoyed it, the sauce, the pancake, the vegetables were all perfect! Other dishes were nice too, I don't normally like beef but
Another great night of delicious food, was a big group tonight which was an added bonus. Got to try a lot more dishes. Prawn and coriander dumplings my new favorite. Yum .October 2019
Best Duck in Auckland, just delicious. Amazing atmosphere, really great staff. Reminded me of Chinese food in Fiji.
I've been here for nearly 15 years.
Never had a bad experience.
I noticed getting a bit tatty but always satisfied with the food.
