Walked past this place many times (hard to miss with the drums in the front) but never actually tried them until today. To preface.. I'm not a big fan of duck at all but my husband and family are so we gave this a go. We ordered the 5 dishes, one of which was the Peking duck and another the lion's head (huge meatball). Not a fan of the duck but my grandma and husband were. They do show you their neat trick on wrapping the duck so that's pretty cool. Also took the remaining duck to be fried with salt and pepper (you have other options like soup..) but that was too salty for us. Really enjoyed the clams and veggie dish as well! We brought my toddler and they gave her steamed egg which was really nice! Overall top notch service and good food! Accommodating for toddlers which is nice and even she ate more than usual.
4 stars for overall service and food. The ordering on the iPad was interesting as the menu was in Chinese. Thankful for the one line descriptions and photos to match. This hot spot, located on the first floor of Tangram Mall, is bustling with crowds on the weekends. They do not take reservations unless you want to book the private rooms or The Birdcage. There is a minimum spend to be in each room so choose wisely. The room we were seated in had a minimum spend of $500. Before you confirm your order, a staff member needs to come by and re-confirm your order, especially to ensure you spent the minimum. There were some very unique dishes and curiosity got the better of us - a few were hit or miss. The misses: hot mustard with cabbage, it was a spicy mustard (like wasabi kind of dry heat, where the heat clears your sinuses). And there was way too much mustard in general, on top. The other dish that was almost a miss, the plum cherry tomatoes. The tomatoes were sweet but skin was still on so the plum brine doesn't absorb too much into the tomato. This is an overall refreshing dish for the summer months since it's served cold. The hits: that full portion of Peking duck served in a fancy presentation like a jewelry trunk with drawers. Each compartment or drawer held a treasure to speak. The cut up duck meat, super moist, the garnish of julienned cucumbers and scallions, the delicious sauce and the fabulous crispy duck skin served over toast and topped with caviar. It was a sight indeed. Beautiful presentation. I also enjoyed the King Crab, this 4 pound beauty was cooked and served two ways. First, steamed crab meat legs with steamed eggs on a large plate. The second method was a stir-fry of more cut crab pieces. Well seasoned and tasted like a mixture of Old Bay seasoning and spices. The other favorite of the night was the pork meatball. While only one serving ordered, we managed to break it up with a spoon and everyone got to try it. The other stand out dish was the brisket and beef tendon. Very saucy and tender. I would have wanted to try their fish dishes but all were spicy or marked with a red pepper icon. Since it's a Beijing style menu, I would presume too spicy for my taste. The coolest feature of being in the private room, the motorized lazy Susan and of course, having privacy. Made our birthday banquet much more enjoyable so that we didn't have to sit in the loud, main dining area.
Felt like stepping back into Beijing and tasting a perfect roast duck from those that perfected it for centuries. Located in the new mall in the heart of flushing queens with all your favorites from Asia housed in one place. Parking is awful and there is a lot located in the basement. Pricey but who cares when it's stressful on the streets. The food and service is as perfect. The seafood rice was alright, the orange beef was a 10/10. And of course the duck was perfect. Definitely do the whole duck where you get it done 3 ways for the table. Cheers
Didn't know what to expect except reading the reviews of interesting looking food options. Was greeted with a friendly server - Yoko, who ended up making us appreciate our experience with his down to earth service and personality. Soft spoken with a hint of fun levity. Our order consisted of half a Peking duck, cauliflower, and black fried rice that was set a blazed for a fiery cool effect. The unexpected was further experienced when the remaining part of the duck that wasn't used in our initial order (with pancakes) was used and put in a soup. The soup was great because it was overly salty and served with tofu. Place is decorated in modern antique theme of a Beijing opera house. They had Chinese opera playing softly in the background. So yes I recommend this place for an overall positive experience. A little on the pricey side they treat you well.
Cuisine: 6 Service: 7 Decor: 8 Value: 3 Overall: 6 If you're looking for the best Peking Duck in NYC, then stop your search and come here. Imho, the version this Beijing (formerly Peking) franchise offers is the closest to what I enjoy in China. Is it worth the price? That's for you to decide. It's expensive if compared to other Chinese restaurants in the area, but almost considered a bargain compared to whole duck options in westernized restaurants all over the city. For me, I stop by every once in a while because it is worth the splurge for me. Another reason why I come to Juqi is the beautiful decor, especially their private rooms and the semi-private bird cage table. My family has celebrated a couple special occasions here, and they all loved the environment. Unfortunately, that's where my praises for this restaurant ends. First of all, everything is too expensive. Check the local Dongbei restaurants in Flushing and most of them charge 20-40% less for the same dishes. More importantly, it's not any better in quality or taste. Some of the dishes look fancier, especially the desserts, and that's what you are paying for. Keep that in mind and you will have a decent experience.
I came here this afternoon for a solo lunch and left thoroughly impressed. I ordered half a Peking duck, braised wheat gluten with shrimp, and XO sauce seafood fried rice--definitely more than enough for one person! Every dish was beautifully executed and full of flavor. The wheat gluten puffs with shrimp were especially memorable and reminded me of dishes I grew up enjoying in China. The Peking duck was the standout--the skin perfectly crisp, light, and delicate, paired with tender, flavorful meat. Wrapped in the paper-thin pancakes, each bite was balanced and satisfying without feeling greasy. I ended up taking the fried rice home, and the staff kindly offered to turn the duck bones into a tofu and cabbage soup to go--a thoughtful touch that really elevated the experience. Service was just as impressive: professional, attentive, and efficient from start to finish. A flawless meal overall--I'll absolutely be back to explore more of the menu.
Food was beautifully presented and definitely very good but we quickly ran out of room due to the size of the serving dishes and kept on consolidating other dishes on our table to make more room. It may have also been us over ordering but pacing would have helped so we as the diners don't feel rushed. If you are going with a party of 4, it may be wise to ask for a table that seats 6 so this doesn't happen to you. Out of all the dishes we tried, the seafood vermicelli, fried prawns, and crispy shrimp balls were the highlights. The Peking Duck was fine, didn't stand out as much as the other items. Not pictured here was the fish filet in sauerkraut soup which was super spicy and my friends really enjoyed. Cocktails were delish! I would consider this type of meal, a fancy Chinese dinner if you wanted to impress family/friends as I would consider it overpriced.
One of the best pecking duck places I've tried so far. They display the pecking duck in the wooden box and show you how to wrap your pecking duck with the other ingredients nicely. They also provide gloves so you don't dirty your hands. The leftover bones from the duck can be turned into one of three choices: 1) stir fry 2) salt and pepper 3) soup. I haven't tried option 1 and 2 yet but #3 is sooo good, especially at the end of your meal. Aside from the pecking duck, which is what they're known for, all dishes were yummy. and I would highly recommend coming here to try.
We tried to get into this restaurant for two days in a row and finally got in. It's a big hype for sure. We ordered an array of dishes to try as a family and it was all very mediocre. It did not amaze me for what the hype is. The duck was very crispy, but bland. Everything here is about presentation. For the duck- it came out whole and a chef cut it up in front of us and played it on a box. They deep rid some of the skin and put caviar on top and served. Flaming fried rice- it was purple rice- pretty bland. Nothing special but the flames. All the other dishes were also bland and everything tasted like szechuan peppers. Ambiance- very cute and Asian inspired esthetics. Customer service, was always there when we needed them because we were place right next to their service table where they stand. Nice experience, but I would not go back.

Just delicious chinese food, beautifully presented. The Peking Duck is excellent! Probably the best in NYC, certainly the most impressive to look at, they carve it in front of you and serve it in what appears to be an ornate Jewelry box. Even the snacks they bring to the table at the beginning are quite tasty. read more

Sign in on the tablet once you arrive to shorten your wait time! The estimated wait time is kind of inaccurate, they told us 50-60 minutes so we decided to get dessert before dinner then they called us back within 20 minutes. We came back and they told us another 20 minutes then we were gonna walk around the mall and called us back in literally 2 minutes, the wait is not as long as they say. Aside from that, presentation and service was great. The food was decent and authentic. A few of the menu items seemed overrated and more so for presentation like the Beijing style yogurt which is really just honey over yogurt and mahjong tile desserts. My friend loved the braised beef and chili pepper chicken. My fav was the fried shrimp balls which were presented on a cute little tree. I would come back again and recommend this restaurant. The prices are reasonable considering it is located in the Tangram mall. read more

What a fantastic feast! So appreciative that they accommodated my elderly mother with the last table when we didn't have reservations. Service was top notch with tea constantly filled and hot. Food was impeccable and the fried fish was a piece of art that we didn't want to eat because it looked so beautiful. The fried tofu was a masterpiece because the tofu is soft and the crust paper thin and crispy. Speaking of thin, I've never had such perfect paper thin wrappers for the Peking duck! Definitely recommend!! read more

We're always on the lookout for good Peking duck. Juqi is in the Tangram Mall in Flushing so plan ahead to get there. Unless you are willing to wait as a walk-in, I recommend that you reserve ahead of time on their website which only takes reservations online Mondays to Fridays. If you go early though when they open at 11:30 am, your wait shouldn't be more than 15-20 minutes. So check in on their iPad as soon as you get there so your wait won't be too long. Service was attentive but it would help to speak Chinese, Mandarin in particular. The decor is very cute as if you were dining in a hutong (old Beijing alley way). There are private rooms as well and seating as if you were in an imperial bedroom or in a human sized bird cage. The Peking duck set was amazing, carved in front of you and served 3 ways. The traditional way with very thin pancakes was one of the best we've had in a while. The crispy duck skin on a brioche toast with a dab of caviar was unexpected but a welcomed decadent bite. You have a choice of salt pepper frying of the duck bones or a soup. The fried duck bones we chose would be good as an accompaniment to beer but I think the soup might have been a better choice. We added steamed pork/shrimp dumplings which are highly recommended. They were very tasty and plentiful. The seafood vermicelli dish was okay but were surprisingly bland given its red hue. I would come back with other people and try other dishes. For 2 people the duck set, dumplings and noodle dish were ample but we probably could have done without the noodle dish. The duck set was $109 and with the other 2 dishes, the bill came to $167 without tip for 2 people. Keep Juqi on your radar for good authentic Peking duck and ambiance. read more

Food came out extremely fast, portion sizes were generous, food was tasty. One note was that the Peking duck took about 30 minutes to come out and was at the end of our meal. We were waiting for it and by the time it came out we were already stuffed. There wasn't much meat on the duck... mostly fatty skin with a centimeter of meat which was disappointing considering the price. read more

I don't understand where these low rating came from. For my experience here, everything was excellent. From food to the service, I couldn't be more happier and satisfied with my whole experience here. Peking duck was crispy and well cooked. They even made the rest of duck meat into a soup which was really deliciously yummy. Also, the whole server team were all attentive, and friendly. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who is craving for authentic Chinese food especially the duck :) read more

Is Peking Duck available for take out?
Are there gluten-free options?
When I called the staff said you don't have gluten free option but when I looked at a customer review you did offer it. Can you kindly let me know if you still offer gluten free options?
What are the best dishes here besides Peking duck?
Is there an english menu?
Of course they have an English menu. They also speak English as well
I see there is a half Beijing duck for $59. As a solo diner, can i order this and get the full experience with buns, crispy skin, soup etc served in multiple courses?
You will not get the entire experience as with getting the whole duck. With the half, you will only get the steam wraps along side the duck. You will then get to choose btwn the soup or the fried bones. So you get a two course meal.
Is the menu only in Chinese or is there a menu in English so that people who are not so fluent with mandarin can order?
Both English and Chinese on the menu
