Peppercorns Kitchen is my favorite restaurant in Evanston! The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The service is friendly and attentive. The menu offers a good variety of authentic and fresh Chinese dishes at reasonable prices. Would highly recommend the dan dan noodles. It is a must try for anyone looking for a good Chinese restaurant.

It had tasty food, but we were persistently bothered by a fly around our food. The tomato and egg turned out to be it favorite. See review of other dishes in the photos. Staff was okay. New waiter, so can't blame him for errors, but the guy who came to recheck our order (and correct new guy's error) was a bit curt.

I love spicy, I love peppercorns, this place satisfies my tastebuds in every ways! Any of their dishes that has peppercorns are amazingly delicious, I specifically like their cabbage, boiling fish slices, and mapo tofu.
Unfortunately their appetizers are pretty mediocre. Also, this isn’t a good place to visit if you do not enjoy spicy food, since I find any dishes that aren’t spicy are meh.
Regardless, as long as t
