Description
Led by Chef Tang since the 1980s, the restaurant pairs its heritage with a classic decor feel and a private karaoke lounge. Alongside the Sichuan staples, the kitchen is known for its cold sesame noodles. The signature Peking duck is a major focal point but draws highly contrasting feedback: some diners praise its presentation and flavor as the highlight of a meal, while others describe it as standard roast duck, pointing to inconsistent service and average food quality for the price.
