First time trying Peking duck from Boiling Beijing, and it tasted amazing. Our family of 12 were all raving to come back next time. We also got a bunch of other dishes. Sweet and sour whole fish was also another favorite of ours. We really like the Beijing herbal tea as well.

We preorder the Peking duck because they said it will an hour to prepare and the duck soup. Ordered additional plates to complement the duck. The vegetable dishes were well prepared

Five stars for the Duck! Cauliflower is also very tasty. Other dishes good but not great.

Been going here for quite some time now. I definitely love the duck and would recommend it. But we have been trying the other dishes as well. My recent favorite being their chicken salad. Great as a complimentary dish to anything you order, including the duck. Though it maybe too much food if it’s just the two of you. Go with friends and try out more dishes.

The dishes are very tasty. Making a reservation before you go will be better, otherwise you may need to wait for a while. The roast duck is wonderful, but it needs pre-order.

3.0Star Boiling Beijing
We came specifically for their famous Peking Duck ($79). For that price, we expected something truly special, but it tasted no different from what you can get elsewhere for around $50. Definitely overpriced and overrated.
The Beijing-Style Crispy Shrimp was flavorful and delicious, but at $35, it’s still hard to call it a good value.
The Braised Whole Live Fish with Pancake ($47) was heavily salted and over-spiced, which completely masked the fish flavor. Another disappointment.
The Beef Soup Noodle was watery and bland, with thin beef slices that fell apart instantly — not satisfying at all.
The Black Pepper Angus Beef with Golden Garlic was tender and tasty, but the portion was small for $29.
Overall, the food quality is decent but not worth the high prices. Portions are small, presentation is average, and the Peking Duck didn’t live up to its reputation.
Summary: Some dishes taste good, but overall too costly, overrated, and not a great value.

In general, most dishes taste pretty good. One negative point is the one and only restroom facility (per gender), and wait time will for sure impact the overall satisfaction on this restaurant.

great food. Nice place for gathering and celebrating festival
Came for dinner. Customers need to scan and QR code to order. Waitress dropped off the food on your table and left. Zero service. Food was terrible. We ordered a spicy dish and a mu-shui beef. They were both 2 stars. On top of that, this is the first and ever restaurant that mu-shui beef doesn't include the thin pancake wrap. I have to order the wrap separately. Atmosphere was ok, nothing stood out to me. It's just an ordinary Chinese restaurant.

Singapore vibes. I don't know why but it just feels like Asia in this restaurant. Not HK. But Macau. Yes, Singapore. Ok. About the food. The food is good. Not amazing but good. Although the presentation is very nice. I'm not surprised at the lines to get inside this restaurant. Its a nice comfortable location. Outside can get a bit ghetto. Kind of weird to see this in San Bruno but whatever.
