The Peterboro has recently expanded its services to include catering, much to the delight of its customers. Known for providing a fresh and "real" take on Chinese cuisine, many describe their food as several notches above typical Chinese fare. Customers who have used their catering service report that everything tasted fresh and delicious, with standout items like the crab rangoon, which is noted for being full of crab flavor and perfectly fried, unlike the often oily versions found elsewhere. The bao buns also held up well for catering, the mushroom dumplings were described as healthy and fresh, and the chicken dishes, including the sesame chicken with delicious veggies and the crispy yet not dry almond chicken with plenty of slivered almonds and a savory gravy, were highly praised. For those in the city who have struggled to find decent Chinese food, The Peterboro comes highly recommended.

Beyond catering, The Peterboro offers a dine-in experience with many tasty dishes and outstanding service. One reviewer specifically mentioned their server, Megan, who took the time to help their large party choose dishes. The bartender was also wonderful, making smooth Red Dragon shots. The food is reported to come out quickly. Favorite dishes include the Lo Mien, noted to be a bit salty but enjoyable, and the chicken wontons, which feature a very savory, flavorful (but not spicy) chili soy sauce. The fried rice is also a highly recommended staple. Overall, The Peterboro is praised for its delicious food and excellent service, making it a place worth checking out.

I'm so glad they now do catering! Every time we want Chinese, this is where we'll be ordering from. Everything tasted so fresh and "real" if that makes sense. Everyone described the food as Chinese food that takes it up several notches. We tried several things, and everything was so tasty. Even the crab rangoon, which can sometimes just taste like canola oil and cream cheese. These were full of crab flavor and perfectly fried. The bao buns held up nicely for catering, the mushroom dumplings tasted healthy and fresh, and the chicken dishes were so good. The sesame chicken had delicious veggies and the almond chicken was crispy but not dry, with lots of slivered almonds and a savory gravy. Delicious! It's been so difficult to find decent Chinese food in the city, so I'm so glad we tried them today. Highly recommend.

So many tasty dishes, here! And the service was outstanding! Megan was our server and took her time helping us choose dishes for our large party. The bartender was also wonderful and made us some Red Dragon shots that went down so smooth! The food came out so quick. My favorite dishes were the Lo Mien, which is a bit on the salty side, but I like that, and the chicken wontons! The chicken wontons had a chili soy sauce that was very savory. I don’t like spicy and this was just very flavorful. Also you can’t go wrong with the fried rice!! Highly recommend checking it out!

The flavors are out of this world! I loved the Airdrop cocktail. The mushroom dumplings are spectacular. We really enjoyed the Mapo Tofu entree. Lucy took attentive and excellent care of us.

The Peterboro offers a hip unique Chinese food dining experience in the heart of midtown in the old and soon to be restored Chinatown district of Cass Corridor. They have a very chill vibe with Chinese decor and full bar service. Their Cheeseburger Egg Rolls are a MUST TRY and they honestly have THE BEST sesame chicken I've ever had.
