HORRIBLE SERVICE. GIRL AT THE REGISTER IS RUDE AND MAKES MISTAKES. WHEN TRYING TO GET THE FOOD CORRECTED, SHE GETS AN ATTITUDE. TODAY WAS THE FINAL STRAW. FOOD WAS HORRIBLE AND NOT PREPARED CORRECYLY.

Be VERY careful when ordering rice. Pork fried rice is the only free version of fried rice (not even veggie, which pork has anyways) and the pork fried rice is MISERABLE. Straight up turns me away from ever returning here. The sesame chicken has also fallen in quality since I ate here long ago.

Peony had been the go-to spot for a while and the food is great for take out and normally on-point with their service. However, something is wrong with their system because the last few times as it seems to be “losing my online order” meaning I have to wait an extra 20 minutes. Nothing major would just recommend they upgrade their ordering service to minimize these minor, but recently consistent inconveniences. Would recommend calling to place order.

Wait times are horrible. I asked for some iced water while I was waiting over 15 mins for an order that was supposed to be ready, seemed to be a big issue. TERRIBLE customer service. I wouldn’t suggest coming here . Never coming here again.

They need to fix their ordering system! On DoorDash, you can’t order hot and sour soup, on their main website you can’t order their lunch specials, and on the menu link provided by google you can’t order Thai tea or other drinks! So frustrating 😂
The Hot and Sour soup was the best I have ever had. It was hot/spicy as it should be, with a balance of mushrooms and not an overwhelming amount of tofu.

I really wanted to like this place but there were too many things working against it during our visit, even though I had a gift certificate. First of all, the AC was not working on the night we visited so things did not get off to a great start. It was warm in the dining area. The lighting was dark (maybe to not add to the heat). We enjoyed our Thai ice teas and seaweed salad appetizer but found our entrees (angel hair special and marine couple) just okay -- nothing special. The scallops in the marine couple were pretty tasteless. The owner came by and chatted with us a little bit, which is always nice. We've had tastier food at other local Asian restaurants so we'll probably pass on coming back soon.
While I dined in, most of the business seemed to be carry out or delivery. The menu had diverse options that would appeal to a lot of different tastes.

Health inspection going on when I arrived, took 45 mins to get my togo order after driving 15 mins there, this is absolutely unacceptable, ive worked over 15 years in the industry and never seen a manager run a restaurant so poorly

My favorite place to eat everything Asian lol. Its a pretty quiet place, love the ambience! The food is better here than like 95% of other places I've been to in the tricounty area (the others are more fine dining). The pricing is fair and the people are always very sweet.

We placed a catering order with Peony for a work meeting for 14 people. We did it through EZ Cater. We are so pleased! Everything was correct, the food was labeled, everyone really enjoyed their selections. Peony even accommodated the special requests that were written in for a couple of the orders. Our order was ready promptly and they automatically included the extra sauces, condiments, crunchy toppings, utensils (including chopsticks), and threw in a couple complimentary half gallons of sweet tea. The staff was so nice, they helped me get everything into my car.
We allowed our staff to choose between the Office Kitchen Lunch and the Office Sushi Lunch - the prices are seriously affordable for such good food and for the generous portion sizes. Our all-in price per person was under $15/pp (that's with food, taxes, tip). We will definitely order from here again and highly recommend it!
Never had a bad meal here, some of my favorite crab Rangoon
