It was cold outside and was uncomfortably cold sitting at our table and it didn't warm up the whole time we were there. The music playing was too loud, l couldn't hear one of my dining companions, l asked if it could be turned down, and it was.We had a lot of questions about various dishes which the menu didn't tell us.I ordered the Pork Shanghai which turned out to be basically a noodle dish and not much else. I wouldn't have ordered it if l'd knownThen, when my companions had finished eating but l had not, the waitress cleared their plates, packaged up their leftovers and brought the bill.....while l was still eating! Absolutely unacceptable.I've been to The Peking many times before and never had such a negative experience.Last night they needed to turn up the heat, give better meal descriptions on the menu, teach that waitperson the art of waiting table and lastly, put up a sign where the toilet facilities are ....

Didn't enjoy the food for the price. Could have gone to chain twice and been just as well off

My son and I had the pleasure of dining here last night and my goodness, I have never seen portions this large at any restaurant in my life. The food was excellent. Service was excellent. The atmosphere of this enchanting restaurant all decorated for Christmas was stunning. The Landmark building established in 1926, I believe, is evidenced everywhere. To my delight, the marble stairway entering the Peking Restaurant was heartwarming to see. I highly recommend this beautiful establishment. We had a customized pork fried rice due to dietary restrictions. It was perfect. Our main entrees were Shrimp and Snow Peas and a Beef with steamed rice dinner, also perfect. We had to take boxes of food home because they give you so much food.
Best Chinese restaurant in Wausau!! Amazing every time!

I have been in central Wisconsin for 25 years and I can’t believe nobody ever told me about this restaurant. It’s fantastic. It’s classy looking, very relaxing, the food was great. My wife ordered egg foo yong and I thought why did she order three soggy patties like you usually get in a Chinese restaurant? It was nothing like that. They were very tasty pies.Usually Crab Rangoon is greasy fried dough with a little filling in it. This Crab Rangoon was delicious. The appetizers were all lightly breaded, and no greasy taste to the fried food. The waitress recommended I try the garlic ginger chicken, and it was delicious.I will be back as much as possible. I love this restaurant.

The decor of the Peking Restaurant has undergone a tasteful facelift and the high quality of the food remains in tact. The proof is in the presence of native Chinese diners (and numerous repeat customers). The Peking also offers one of the most attractive and best-stocked bars in the community.
Fine dining, excellent service and delicious food!

It is located off the street in a classic old apartment building, gave me a little feeling like, hmm, is this going to be okay? It turned out to be a really nice experience, nice bar area, dining room was spacious, nice amount of separation from other tables. White table cloths and comfortable chairs. Dated, but for a classic Chinese Restaurant it works... Server could not have been more professional or attentive. Portion sizes were healthy, taking home an entire meal (half of order is all I could eat, and I'm a big eater). Going to the Grand Theater for a show, give this place a try before the show!

I have to start off by saying that the food was very good. With that said as far as the waiter we had left a lot to be desired. I will call him out his name was Scott. He seemed very confused at times. He also knew we were there for my birthday dinner and was less than attentive to our table. When he took the order for our table he didn’t even get it right and left the birthday lady without food. When the food came out I asked where my order was and he said he made a mistake and would put the order for me in now. We had to ask another waitress for water when she checked on us more than our waiter. All I know her by was her blue hair. Thank you miss. Scott asked if we wanted dessert since another employee named Mikie was paying anyway. To our table this seemed rude. We replyed by saying no we had brought in a birthday cake. He then asked whose birthday was it. He then took our dishes away. When the cake finally came out we had to ask that person Mikie for plates and silverware. The buss person needs to get longer shirts. During our entire meal he had exposed his underwear band and skin while he worked. It was not pretty to see. Like I said the food was good but the dining staff needs to be trained in manners and proper etiquette for the public in a restaurant.

Best Chinese food I have ever had! It felt very fancy walking in with white linen tablecloths and the European-esque style dining room decorated with gold painted walls with mirrors. I ordered the mango mojito to drink which was perfectly fruity and minty, very refreshing. The orange chicken was the special for the evening so I decided to try that, and I'm so glad I did! The perfect combination of sweetness and spice with chicken and fresh vegetables in an orange sauce. I've never had such fresh tasting Chinese food before and I appreciate that it wasn't fried. Not to mention the wide variety of fresh cooked vegetables, it was delicious. It's clear the quality at Peking is superb! The portions at Peking are huge so be ready to take home your leftovers! Service was fantastic and the waiter was very helpful in explaining the menu. Highly recommend!
