Peking BBQ – Chinese
Peking BBQ is a vibrant culinary destination where the air is perfumed with five-spice and the rhythmic cadence of cleavers meeting chopping blocks. Glistening ducks with lacquered, mahogany skin hang in the window, promising a delicate crunch that gives way to succulent meat seasoned by generations of tradition. It is a soulful space that brings together the rich, smoky flavors of authentic Chinese barbecue and the lively, welcoming energy of a neighborhood staple.

What diners are saying
Customers celebrate this unique Chinese-Peruvian fusion spot for its flavorful rotisserie chicken with crispy skin and the "MVP" green sauce that diners insist on dipping everything in. Standout dishes include the savory Aguadito soup, tender beef ribs, and perfectly crispy yuca fries, though the menu also features classic fried rice and sweet plantains. While the atmosphere is described as a "hole in the wall" best suited for takeout, guests appreciate the friendly service and fresh food despite the frequent lines and cash-only policy.
