Pecking House had some of the best fried chicken I have had in recent times. It was elevated and you could tell there is an extra level of sophistication to their chicken. Different flavors, different techniques and some Asian fusion aspects that pair so perfectly well with the classic American style fried chicken. Cornbread was excellent, dirty fried rice was also superb and the chili chicken sandwich really hit the spot. Can't wait to return to Pecking House in the future! Service was also excellent; super attentive and next level for a more casual place like this one. Don't sleep on the Peanut butter pudding!

I learned about this place from Instagram, only to realize that the food was actually sub par.We got the Seczuan chicken and egg yolk one. The chicken was dry, not flavorful and extremely thick batter. The only flavor was outside, as the chicken were not marinated. The egg yolk sauce didn’t taste like much either.The price was quite high for the portion size and quality of food.The environment was nice though.

Brilliant take on sichuan spicy chicken. Got the 3 piece with 2 sides . They don’t have an option to mix spice levels in different pieces of chicken. So our friends and we got different spice levels and swapped chicken pieces. We did the chilli and extra hot . Chilli is mad flavorful and xtra hot had a kick of added spicy but it’s not going to burn your insides. We also got the ghost pepper wings which were not as spicy as they sound and was in fact very tasty.They had a pretty nice selection of beers and ciders to go with the food.It’s a little hard to get to if you’re coming from near by boroughs or Jersey. I think that’s the only downside

Decent chicken and concept but a flavor punch is lacking to really make this worth the price.

Pecking House has literally the best chicken I've ever had. Some good heat, excellent flavor and crunchiness for days. This place surely will not disappoint.The staff are friendly and the owner frequently interacts with the customer.Very highly recommend this place.

Was really excited to try this place but left unsatisfied. The flavors were underwhelming. The salted egg flavor was salty but not very flavorful. The cucumber was overly moist and had an okra like consistently due to being drenched in ginger. I personally would not visit again.

Had their chicken with chili and it was delicious and moist. The rice was good, but the potato salad was better and their cornbread was outstanding. Would come back if in the area for another Nets game.
The best fried chicken in NYC. Crispy, spicy, full of flavor. This fried chicken will be crispy the next morning straight out of your fridge if it lasts that long. The potato salad and all the sandwiches are also incredible.
