    Melanie H.

    Best beef and shrimp yak. Mike is a real one. Cash only or cash app. Be aware if you go after the sun goes down.

    Cheesecake egg rolls

    I heard about this place and they call it Mike's. I was finally able to check them out and I have to say this is the one for some good Chinese food! They open at 6pm. I called ahead and my order was ready when I arrived. I had the shrimp fried rice and cheesecake egg rolls. They only accept cash so have your cash beforehand. I was in and out that's the best way to do it lol

    Pork Penitentiary Yak in my own bowl. Very good!

    Great Yat kaw Mein (Penitentiary Yak) being our regular place was closed we tried this place & was so happy that they had the Black Yak. Rare to find these days. It sure did hit the spot & we will be going back. We ordered Pork Yak & Pork Fried Rice.

    Steak and cheese egg Roll was definitely not good. It lacked a lot of flavor and meat; mostly peppers and onions

    Straight ghetto, but shrimps & rice is good enough if your trying to get Chinese food late at night.

    Peter Chang Baltimore - Pork Soup Dumpling 3PD (4)

    I've become obsessed with Peter Chang takeout ever since I realized they have several gluten free…read moreoptions on the menu. I usually stay away from Chinese food just due to the use of wheat noodles and soy sauce but having a few options that are safe and delicious is what really sets Peter Chang apart from other Chinese restaurants in the area. My favorites from the menu include: Crystal shrimp dumplings - so yummy and perfectly steamed. Comes with a sauce that might be questionable for my more sensitive gluten free foodies so proceed with caution. Absolutely delicious shrimp inside though! Scallion fried rice - comes with generous amount of egg and customized spice level. Goes great with a little extra tamari if you have some at home. Bok choy and mushrooms - omg, I think about this bok choy weekly! It's so perfectly cooked. Crunchy, full of flavor, and goes well with the mushrooms. I like mixing this into the fried rice. Singapore noodles - this was a new item for me but really yummy. Loved the thing rice noodles that had a nice chew to them and didn't fall apart. Seasoning was fresh and not overpowering at all. Comes with thinly sliced chicken and a few shrimp plus some chopped veggies. Add some of your own tamari to it for a little extra flavor! Delivery has always been prompt and dishes packaged well. I've never eaten in, as it's more of a casual takeout spot, but their food really fulfills my Chinese food cravings.

    I ordered UberEats to my hotel. I ordered several things:…read more Chicken with broccoli, Eggplant in spicy garlic sauce, Green beans, White rice, Crystal shrimp dumpling and Hot and sour tofu egg soup. The food overall was delicious. Each of the entrees was flavorful and well prepared. Two things I want to mention: I thought the shrimp dumpling (3 of them) should have been a larger portion for the price and that the soup was a bit salty. Other than that, no complaints. After placing my order online, I called the restaurant to request plates, plastic ware and chop sticks. The friendly person on the phone assured me "no problem," and everything was received as promised. I had ordered a lot more food than I should have, and ended up having some for dinner, lunch the following day and late afternoon snack a day later. The entrees and rice held up well under repeat microwaving. I've been unimpressed by Peter Chang (eating at the testaurant) at another location in the past. I thought it was overpriced for what was typical Chinese food. I will likely try them out again after this experience. The food was much better than I remember it and seemed reasonably priced for the portions.
