Everyone is so nice, food is always hot (we go at 5pm), and waitstaff is extremely attentive. Please do not listen to reviews of people who go to buffet at close, of course they are not going to have fresh food right at close. I have always been met with kindness and wonderful hospitality. When you leave, you pay at the counter near the door. You will be greater by a wonderful woman who displays pictures of her family behind the counter. She is the most professional and lovely person. I know she is the one who runs that restaurant like the well oiled machine it is. We love you Peking Gourmet II. Never change!

This was the worst Chinese food I have ever eaten in my life. I was so optimistic because everybody…read morewas Chinese and barely spoke English. The menu looks great. We ordered takeout. The chicken with broccoli may as well have been called soup. I have never seen anything like it in my life. I got the beef with string beans. I'm not sure what protein they gave me because it was indistinguishable. The string beans were fibrous and hard. Totally flavorless. While I was waiting for my food I asked for a glass of water. I was asked if I wanted to drink it there or to go so I said to go. They said $.50. I told him I had just spent almost $50 and they were going to charge me $.50 for water. Shame on them. I now understand why however because once you eat their food you will never ever ever ever go back. I've got to make their profit in that water. If you find yourself at this establishment, run to the nearest exit

We came on a whim and discovered this gem 15 minutes away from Maggie Valley…read more Store is beautiful and clean. We came on a Thursday late afternoon/Early evening and got sat quickly. Waiter was spot on - tended to us quickly to get our drinks. He came and took our order and food came out fairly quickly. The vegetable tempura was great - not greasy and this one had broccoli and eggplant (I dont like eggplants but I am sure someone will.appreciate this). Fried rice - even though it was kids, it was fantastic. It was not oil soaked and the flavor was so clean. Even my picky husband said it taste so good! Rice was not mushy.. it was, excellent! The Chow Hor Fun? I wont lie... I disnt have high hopes as a restaurant in the Carolinas. Boy was I wrong! The noodles were al dente, beautiful mix of all the veggies and protein. Sauce was a little sweet for my taste, so I was able to request for some chilli sauce and was all good. Also, not greasy. I was happy. My husband got the tuna sushi nigiri, tuna roll, salmon nigiri and white tuna. It was really good! Everything was bright and did not smell fishy. Last note - portions are freakin HUGE! Like i ate a third and took the rest' and the container was full. My daighters "kids" fried rice was packed to the brim. Expect left overs, u less your a competitive eater. The price, value and quality, this was def a 5 star - our first and only in our vacation here. Highly recommend - speaking as a Chinese vacationing in the carolinas that was getting desperate for any semblance of chinese food

Based on my own personal experience while having lunch at Watami Sushi And Noodles on 33 South Main…read moreStreet, Waynesville, North Carolina, I can NOT recommend this establishment for the extreme hostility and hatred I experienced there by the staff on Wednesday, May 13, 2026. While I do wish to acknowledge that Watami Sushi And Noodles does have the absolute legal right to deny anyone service; the staff of Watami Sushi And Noodles does not have the legal right to discriminate against anyone and violate anyone's Civil Rights on the basis of race, religion, and/or creed. Around 1:15 p.m. on  Wednesday, May 13, 2026, I entered Watami Sushi And Noodles on 33 South Main Street, Waynesville, North Carolina with the only goal of having lunch. When the hostess saw me, she had a look of absolute shock terror on her face and instead of greeting me with a "Hello" or "Welcome," she immediately tried to get me to just get take out only.  Only after repeatedly stating several times that I didn't want to order take out and that I wanted to dine there, she waved to a host/server who took one look at me and loudly said "OH" before seating me at a small table in the middle of the establishment.  Please note, there were other diners there. None of the staff was friendly or welcoming and rebuffed my attempts at conversation.  The waitress had an angry expression and tone with me, but not with other patrons in the restaurant. I ordered Chicken Teriyaki with a Green Salad and a side of Miso Soup.  Both the Miso Soup and Chicken Teriyaki were lukewarm, boarding on cold.  The Green Salad was crisp and fresh.  I didn't get a chance to finish to soup or the salad because it was taken away post haste once my lunch order had arrived. Now why did the staff of Watami Sushi And Noodles act they way they did when I entered their establishment. Well, this is just my opinion, based on their actions:  they didn't welcome or want an observant Jew who was wearing a yamicha, along with business casual clothes, in their establishment. ZERO STARS.

Visited Lake Junaluska for a week and came here for lunch one day. The inside was pretty open and…read morewe were seated immediately. There was only one waitress serving the entire restaurant, and she did well, but sometimes I thought she could use a little help. This place was good, but a few things kept it from being a perfect five stars. We had kids, so we ordered some appetizers and requested they be brought out with the main meal so all the food came out at once -- chicken satay and a side of rice and some potstickers. They got brought out early despite the request. Restaurant has a variety of asian food: sushi, Pho, small selection of Thai and Chinese etc, plus some kid options (Corndogs etc). Everyone should be able to find something. Wife (half asian, her Mom ran Chinese restos growing up) got the Tom Kha and said it was unlike any other Tom Kha she'd gotten. Complex, and good, but different; extremely frothy. I ordered the Beef Pho and thought the meat was a lot tougher (both the strips and beef balls) then I am used to in Pho from Atlanta, Vegas, CA etc. Dumplings were mid, could have used a little more seasoning, they were very meaty. The kids liked their food. Parents thougt the food was fine. 20% gratuity automatically applied for a party of 6 (usually it's parties of 8). Drink service was a little slow and so was the check. Very passable, especially for a tourist town in the mountains but not going to wow you if you like more authentic asian food. Check it out if you're in the area and want some asian food!
