Just picked up some Pad Thai!! Best ever!! Did you get a new chef? I loved it! Always had been good but this was extra! Had cilantro and peanuts and so much chicken!! Yum'

The food and prices are very good. We accidentally ordered delivery from a different Bejing and will never make that mistake again. I love that they have a drive through. The food is fresh and tasty and we always have enough for lunch the next day. There are better Chinese restaurants but for the money and convienence this place is great. We have never eaten inside - always to go.

Horrible experience, if I could give 0 stars I would. First they gave me the wrong order and when I asked them to fix it they wanted to upcharge me and and refused to just take the loss. Then I get home and the food is spilled in the bag and everywhere. Will not be going back.

We have been going to Beijing for years and have rarely been disappointed. They have a good menu and they have been able to maintain their quality!

I've been going to Beijing for years. It use to be a nice drive through pick up. I went last Friday ordered pepper steak and spring rolls. Sat in drive thru for 22 minutes! Got home and opened the bag... the spring rolls were so over cooked I couldn't even cut the with a knife. Dark brown and hard so I threw them out in disgust. They used red bell peppers which changes the flavor a lot! Should be traditional green bell peppers like always!!!! The rice was greasy which was a huge disappointment because I use to love the fried rice from here.Never will go back ... everything all the way around was just bad!!!!

Too salty, too sticky, too burnt$10.75 is too muchShould have looked harder for a hole in the wall place with authentic Asian food instead of Americanized Asian fast food

Came in a little late, well, we came in at 9pm and they close at 10pm. Server seemed a little miffed that we showed up so late so he made it a point to let us know they closed in an hour. We agreed that we understood, but we were determined. Buddy, we drove 11 miles to get here because the other Beijing Express closer to us was unexpectedly closed early. Please let us eat!!!! Lol So we found a table and it was visibly busy for one server and a bus boy. They had a table of 15 walk in only minutes before us so I understood the frustration. We grabbed menus, as asked by the server. We sat and started to look over the menu. Nothing too out of the ordinary, typical Chinese American style food. I don't mean anything negative by that, only that nothing stood out as new or different really. I decided on the Deluxe Dinner Special. Entree, fried rice, Rangoon or egg roll and choice of soup. I ordered the Kung Pao Chicken, fried rice, Rangoon, hot and sour soup and added an egg roll. Within minutes the soup comes out, it's hot and super tasty. Nice and vinegary just like I like it. The food came out shortly after and omg the flavor! So deep and so delicious! Lots of chicken, not mostlyvegetables like some places. Just a deep rich robust flavor in the Kung Pao and the rice. The Rangoon were solid, the egg rolls were awesome too. I gave this place only 4 stars because of a few things. First, I asked for my food to be spicy spicy SPICY! It was not. It had a kick, but I like it to burn!!!! The egg roll I added on was almost $2. For 1 egg roll, it was good, but I don't see why it would be so pricey unless the thing was hand rolled. Also, I guess they double as a gift shop, so they had stuff everywhere. In the entrance, a display case taking up half of the entry way, so anything more than 2-3 people up there makes it crowded. I did not like that at all. Like at all at all. In fact, despite the fact of the food being so good, I would have given three stars except the server was so patient and gracious that he made the whole place feel inviting and earned them another star. Comfort food, comfort service. I'm definitely coming back, soon!

One plate was really good and fresh and the lemon chicken I got looked like it has been sitting under a heat lamp since yesterday. First time it's been that bad and I've been going for really long time and usually never disappoints

Visited Sunday, 3/12/23 at 2:55 PM First of all, my food waited in drive thru window for 10 minutes and no one came to cash me out. Then a Girl (purple nails and bad attitude) wipes her nose/face with the front of her hand and then tries to hand me my food right after. Very unprofessional and disgusting.

Worst Chinese food I've ever had, DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE! The food was dry and obviously old. There was a weird after taste to the rice making it inedible. When we called to inform them we were asked to drive the food back for their cooks to inspect it, no thank you. From the confrontational tone we were greeted with on the phone we knew that bringing the food in would be a lost cause. All but the few bites we took were thrown in the trash.

Service was ok as they seemed to be short staffed. food was ok too. Not my favorite, but not horrible either.I tried the sesame chicken, fried rice and wonton soup.

We are waiting to go to a movie at Santikos Embassy 14 and spotted this Chinese restaurant almost in their parking lot. A nice atmosphere with Carlos providing friendly and attentive service. Food came out quickly and it was really good!They have a nice outdoor patio area as well.

Not only did I order the wrong thing but it was not delicious. Saved it for work friend for lunch and they didn't like it either. The soup I ordered barely had any broth in it. Chicken was weird too. It was supposed to be clear noodle chicken soup. Noodles were not clear.

Im giving this place two stars. Service just feels to rushed. Constantly over shoulder. Over priced for the amount of thats given ( been to multiple Chinese restaurants where u get a lot for your money) my husband got the kung pao beef and it tasted off. I got something simple the sweet and sour shrimp. And its nothing but breading , barley any shrimp. Also the sauce for sweet and sour is disgusting. Only thing here i say is decent is fried rice and the egg rolls.
