About Peking Inn

Peking Inn is a Chinese restaurant located at 4905 Catharine St, Philadelphia, PA 19143, USA. They can be contacted at (215) 472-4905 or +1 215-472-4905.

Customer reviews present contrasting experiences. One customer who ordered twice noted a decline in food quality on their second visit. Specifically, they mentioned that their partner's rice was hard, and their curry shrimp and broccoli lacked the flavor from their first order. This reviewer also described the restaurant's interior and exterior appearance as "sketchy," noting a dark and gloomy atmosphere inside, the inability to see or hear cooking, an unattended counter upon arrival, and a sudden influx of waiting customers, creating an unsettling experience. However, they acknowledged its late operating hours and convenience for deliveries in the area.

In contrast, another customer stated that the food is "consistently good" and recommends keeping orders simple to enjoy what they consider the best carry-out Chinese food in Philadelphia.

Based on these reviews, Peking Inn offers late-night service and may have some dishes that are consistently well-received for takeout. However, there are concerns raised about potential inconsistency in food quality and the unappealing interior environment of the restaurant. Potential customers may want to weigh these factors when considering Peking Inn.

Ordered food from here twice now. The first time was better then the last. I'm not sure what happened. But the food was just ok on the second trip. My lady wasn't really happy with her food. Her rice was a little on the hard side. My curry shrimp an broccoli lacked the flavor it had the first time I ordered. The place itself looks a little sketchy from the outside and looks even more sketchy on the inside. It's dark and gloomy in there. You can't even see or hear anyone cooking the food in the back. No one was at the counter when I walked in. Then this lady just comes from out of the back somewhere. It was weird. I was the only one there at first then all of the sudden it was like 6 people standing in the lobby waiting for food. It felt like I was in a Escape Room movie and the stage was set and the survival games were about to begin. I'm not sure I will be back. It was just really convenient at the time because I was making deliveries to Mariposa across the street at night. And they were one of the few options that stayed open pretty late in the area.

You get a lot less food for more money now. The front is graffiti ridden and dirty. They don't see. to care.
