Today, we tried a new Chinese food restaurant in Elk Grove Village. We were excited to try a new place. The establishment is simple...no indoor seating, just take out. The lady behind the counter was very friendly and our call in order was ready upon arrival I got the Sesame Chicken and my wife got the beef szechawan. The egg rolls are HUGE and we were excited for them. Unfortunately, they were just . Ok. Little bit of a gamey after taste. Her beef was ok in flavor but her fried rice was completely dried out and seemed stale. My white rice was the same. The Sesame chicken was hard as a rock. My plastic fork could barely pierce the chicken! We are almost sure that all this good was refried or reheated from the day prior. Very disappointing I gave them a star for service and pricing. I can't recommend Peking Express because we question the freshness of the food and the taste was just not good read more

Peking Express - Sesame Chicken lunch special - Chinese Near Me - Elk Grove Village, Illinois

We have ordered from Peking Express since the summer of 2020. They always prepared our orders per our request and delivered the food promptly. It was always hot and tasty. Our most recent order (Aug 2025) was delivered by a third party service. The food took 40-minutes to be delivered (based on the service notification sent to my phone saying the order was collected). The driver called me multiple times and still drove past my house several times. The driver blamed GPS and the restaurant for the delivery delays. Needless to say, the food arrived cold. In the past, Peking staff delivered our orders. They were polite and prompt. Of not for the deliver service on our most recent order, I would have given them 4.5 stars. I would advise you to confirm how they plan to deliver your order before placing your it. read more

Was this the best orange chicken and fried rice I've ever had? No. Was it the most quantity for the price that I've had in this area? You bet. Food overall is very good. And they are very very generous with the portions. One lunch special easily lasts 2 days if not more. Will definitely order again from here. As far as fast food Chinese, this is hard to beat. Cheaper than everything else around, large portions, and good flavor. You won't find better unless you're willing to visit a proper sit-down Chinese restaurant for 3x the price. read more

On Wednesday we ordered food from this establishment and we have ordered from this before, but it's been a while. It had to be the worst Chinese meal we've had from there ever it was lacking flavor. It was not done all the way through the vegetables are still not cooked and we had two dinners and some extra rice but that was it and for $37 it was very expensive for what we got. I don't recommend the place it used to be good. I don't know if there's new managers or new owners, but I definitely would not go back. read more

Peking Express - Lot of money spent on his meals for two people and to have this food really not edible very very disappointed - Chinese Near Me - Elk Grove Village, Illinois

Never order online before noon. Placed an order at 11 when they open. Got the confirmation that it was to be ready at 11:20. At 11:35 the door is locked and I now have to wait because they are stuck in traffic. When I told her inside she shouldn't open until noon she said nothing. 40 min and lunch still is not ready. It's bad bc their food is delicious but not worth the hassle to get it. read more

Horrible quality and I used Uber to order food to a hotel. No silverware and not generous with condiments. I called and complained and got a real hateful Asian lady who would not accept any responsibility. They don't care about customers. read more

For many years, we have always gotten a good quality meal from Peking Express. Fried rice is especially great.

Ordered deliver food was 45 mins late!!!!!! Called resturant said they were 5 mins out waited another 15

This place is great, the sweet & sour chicken is so good. They give youbig portions. BUT funniest thing, my friend was driving way too fast and had to slam on her brakes and her food went flying and ended up hitting her in the back, lol she was mostly sad she couldn't eat her delicious food from here. LOL read more

The food is I feel better than decent..depending on the dish. I have had the Mongolian beef more than anything else and that is probably the best dish they have. Its not too greasy and tastes pretty good. I gave an extra star because their egg rolls are actually pretty good. They have a little peanut butter in it which gives it some good balance plus I can actually taste the meat inside it. Have had the kung pao chicken (ok), general taos chicken (very greasy for obvious reasons). I have found that if I have a taste for something specific, I need to go to that respective restaurant. I will go elsewhere for other dishes, but they have good Mongolian beef. read more

One of the best and my top ten list for delicious authentic Chinese food. Excellent customer service and I never had any issues with the food or service. Great place for delicious Chinese food. read more

I would normaly order Here because its tasty and well make. Tonights order of 2 different fried rice were overcooked to the max. Never seen fried rice that was one solid ball. Also order was 30 to 60 min. late. The food needs to be prepared right and delivered on time. read more

Love the food and portions! The vegetables are always super fresh and never too oily or salty. Top places for Chinese in the area. The home style tofu and pan fried noodles are my favorites :) read more

It's simple. Just don't! Everything here is sweet no other flavor! I couldn't even finish my meal ! I threw away more than half!! Even the crab Rangoon was a disaster! It's the simplest item fried wonton stuffed with cream cheese this abomination wa stuffed with condensed milk!! Gtfo!! Also watch how they charge you! On the website it shows a delivery charge of$2but i somehow paid $4 for delivery!! Your better off going to Panda Express for better Chinese food! It's sad but true.... read more

I'm really picky when it comes to Chinese food as I grew up going to China Town every weekend as a kid, and I've had more than my share of Chinese food. I can only think of a handful of places that I can say are good & this is 1 of them. This is a no frills, little family owned place (which I've found are usually the best). They have an awesome selection on their lunch/dinner specials & the price can't be beat. 1 thing that stood out for me is that it comes with an Egg Roll AND 1 Crab Rangoon, most places only offer the egg roll OR 1 Crab Rangoon. I don't much care for egg rolls & usually skip it but I have tasted this 1 & I count it amongst the good ones. The Crab Rangoon is delicious it's 1 of my favorites, the fried rice is delicious too. My husband usually gets the fried rice combo Special which is chicken, shrimp & BBQ fried rice with an egg roll. You get so much rice that he has enough for 2 more meals. Their dinner special is usually enough for my dinner, lunch the next day, and then some. So far I've had their Sweet & Sour Shrimp, Egg Foo Young & Beef & Pea Pods and I have not been disappointed. I don't know why some reviews were bad regarding the amount of food they've gotten as I've always gotten more than enough. All in all I give it 4 stars because everything and everyone always has room for improvement. Try it, you won't be disappointed. read more

Peking Express - 20. Beef with Peapod Dinner Special I substituted Shrimp Fried Rice for the Chicken Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Elk Grove Village, Illinois

The food is AMAZING!!! and they give you big portions. They have lunch specials and dinner specials that come with an egg roll and crab ragoon. read more

I have quickly become a fan of Peking Express. Wish I had asked for all white meat on my chicken dish on my first visit, but you live and you learn, I guess. I have been here a few times in the past few months as our office moved recently to the area. These folks offer lunch specials with white or fried rice for about 6 bucks. There is a WIDE variety of dishes to choose from. You can really eat on the cheap. My favorite part: due to the large portions, you can make a second lunch the next day out of one meal. Score. I was surprised to find the fried rice on the lunch special was actually chicken fried rice. You don't find that anywhere. Good job, PE!! They have a small dining area. Not the most spacious or comfortable as there is a lot of foot traffic in and out of the place to pick up their to-go orders but you can eat in when you need that inevitable break from your office. read more

So disappointed in my once favorite place. My 2 latest orders of "medium" spicy Mongolian shrimp had to be rinsed at the sink it was so hot. No more of that. The Generals Tsos chicken was always fresh and tender. Tonight the great sauce was full of overcooked dried out chicken. No more of that either. So disappointed. There's no consistency in food anymore. Chef turnover? I don't know. I have just given up on good quality Chinese food. read more

This was my first experience at Peking Express and I'll start by saying I plan to try it again. On a very cold day, I decided to grab something and bring it back to the office. Opened up my Yelp app to see what was right in the area of my office - Peking Express got good reviews and was about a mile away so I called and ordered Pork Egg Foo Yong. The restaurant is small, as might be expected from a restaurant with "express" in the name. It was a little hard to find - it is in a strip mall, but the mall wraps around to the east, and it does not face the main street. In fact, there were a few small restaurants right next to each other on the side of the strip mall. (Others to try later on...) The owners run the show. An older Chinese couple man the front. The counter is walk-up and there is a large menu, with pictures, above the counter. There were a half a dozen tables or so in a small area. They had my order ready when I arrived, but I saw someone having soup, so I opted to add a small Hot and Sour to my order. It took a few more minutes and I had a nice chat with the owners while I waited. When I paid, before I left, I said thank you in Mandarin (I don't speak Mandarin, just know how to say thank you), and they seemed genuinely delighted. Now, the food. The Hot and Sour soup was just okay. It was hot when I got back to my office, but not spicy. There was very little pork and a lot of tofu. Lunch orders come with fried rice and an egg roll. The egg roll looked really good. Perhaps you need to eat it right out of the deep fryer, but mine was a little soggy. It did taste good though. The Egg Foo Yong was chock full of fresh vegetables. It was doused in the tradition thick brown sauce, but not overly so. The fried rice was good. Like other reviewers, I was struck by the amount of food. There were two large pieces of Egg Foo Yong, and mounds of fried rice. Clearly, it is more than one meal and is a great value. So, excluding my comments about the egg roll and hot and sour soup, this would rate four stars for the quality and quantify of food for the price. But, I'm knocking one off for the previously mentioned two food items. As said above, I will be back to give it another go. I have to say, their lunch menu was fine, but the dinner menu looked much better. Looking forward to trying something off the dinner menu next time around. read more

Less than average. If you are looking for big portions they have them here. Chicken fried rice was dry so you know the chicken was even drier. I also had Mongolian beef with way more onion then beef. Not a lot of flavor in anything I ate. read more

This is my go to place for Chinese food, the food is fresh and always tasty. My favorite is the vegetable egg rolls. I normally pick up but during this COVID we have gotten the delivery which is contactless. Employees are very friendly. I recommend this place to everyone, even when I have company and we are ordering take out. read more

I've never had a bad experience with them. My egg rolls are always crispy and the food always hot! The chicken rice soup is very good! Delivery guys are awesome! read more

So, I'm not a Chinese food connoisseur or anything, but I have a few things that are non-negotiables for me to think a Chinese place is good: 1) Awesome egg rolls (you know, not just cabbage...and a delicious gooey inside with a crispy outside), 2) Not dry or hard fried rice (I'll actually take a little grease here), 3) Flavorful (spicy if I ask for it!) and not super greasy sauces, and 4) Meat that isn't fatty or iffy. Peking Express certainly delivered on the egg roll front. These have got to be the biggest and best egg rolls I have ever had. I honestly would come here just to eat egg rolls for a snack. They were THAT delicious. The rest though? Eh. The portions were GIGANTIC, I will give them that. But the actual food was just okay. It was kind of bland and the meat wasn't very good. The Mongolian Beef actually had some spice, which was a nice change since most Chinese places don't really spice it up and then it ends up tasting like every other beef dish on the menu, but it was also covered in tiny little crunchy noodles (?) which turned me off. The lo mein noodles didn't really taste like much of anything either and just seemed really plain. If you want HUGE portions at a decent price (and quick delivery!), this is your Chinese joint. 'Slong as your not picky about your food. If you have discerning taste, stick with the appetizers and call it a day. read more

When another reviewer mentioned the staff being a delight, they ain't lyin'. The sight alone of Momma in her purple bucket hat puts a smile on my face every time. Good food, real cheap, real fast. For lunch-time fare, this place is truly "Woohoo! As good as it gets!" read more

Alot of food for the price! Good food, fast delivery. Price is reasonable and very nice staff. I order from them a few times a month when I am at work during week. If they were by my house definitely would order. read more

I work near by, so sometimes I pick up lunch special from here. The prices are really good for what you get. I usually get mongolian beef or hunan beef, and they're both pretty good. You get fried rice, the dish, an eggroll, and sauces all in one container, and it's enough to keep me full for lunch. I go to Wonton if I want a sit down type Chinese food, but if you're in a hurry, and need to pick up quick, it's hard to beat this place! read more

Excellent, excellent, and excellent. Glad I found this place as I used Yelp to guide me. Located at the northwest corner of Devon and Woodale Rd. Next to the foot long stuff. The hospitality was excellent (very giving), the service was excellent (and I didn't need to repeat myself and wonder if they got the order right), and the food was great. The bang for the buck was excellent. My printer wasn't working but they honored a coupon anyway. I will go out of my way. Thank you guys IBB read more

I don't know what people were talking about when they said the service was poor- it's a Chinese takeout restaurant! My husband and I stopped here after a long flight into ORD and the cashier was extremely friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, and the portions were HUGE! You definitely get your money's worth so come hungry. I just want to add that the potstickers are the size of snowballs, and completely and utterly delicious! So glad I ordered some for takeout! If you're in the area- stop by! The little shop will surprise you. P.S. you know the food will be good when the cooks are speaking Cantonese in the kitchen! read more

I ordered the Mongolian beef and when i received my order i did not expect such a huge portion as it was only lunch time. I have to say it was SO good i told the guy at the counter to never let that cook go. This was the best Mongolian beef i've ever had... I added Peking Express to my favorite place for chinese and will not go any where else from now on. read more

I eat here once a week for lunch. + food is good + price is good + food is plenty. + service is fast Its not a 5 star Chinese restaurant but its good taste for a quick fix during lunch. read more

This place is awesome! Not only is the food made to order, delicious, and inexpensive, the staff is a delight. They provide such quality service, I ended up spending my lunch hour speaking with the owners (husband, wife, and their son) for almost the full hour! The whole family is so sweet! They owned two restaraunts in Chicago, and now have their customers coming from Chicago to their Elk Grove location. That should tell you something, because a lot of people in the city refuse to travel to the burbs for anything, let alone Chinese food when there are so many other good places in Chicago. The quality of their food is exceptional. Their meat is top quality (especially compared to a lot of other, more expensive places in the area), your meal arrives fast and fresh, and their lunch specials are one heck of a deal. I have tried the sesame and orange chicken lunch specials so far, and let me tell you, the portions are HUGE. If you want Chinese in this area, this is definitely the place to go. read more

I love chop suey and have a hard time finding it at most places. This place is close to my work. They only list pork on the menu but they have chicken, shrimp, beef, and combination chop suey if you ask for it. If you order a lunch special, it comes with rice and an egg roll. This place has a lot of diet soda choices if you're a diet soda drinker like myself. Like Diet Dr. Pepper Cherry, Diet Gingerale, Coke Zero, Diet Coke, Diet Coke Cherry, Diet ... few more I forget. Their food is not very heavy or salty. Feels healthy and it's not that expensive... IF YOU'RE PAYING $6-8 AT MC DONALD'S or WENDY'S, then this is a BARGAIN. I've tried other dishes like Shrimp and Broccoli... Their Menu has a variety so there's something for everyone. Large portions. Not a 5 only because I usually order takeout.. and they forgot silverware once... I'm kind of a nitpick like that. Come on... I'm taking it to go!!! Where the hell do I get a spoon or chopsticks? It should be a given... to go utensils and at least a napkin. Do they think I'm taking this home because I can't cook? Maybe... but more often than not, I'm not. read more

THE BEST IN TOWN! Customers are very dedicated to the Wu family. So much that families, like mine, continue to drive 30 mins from their previous service area to get their food! My favorites are the big pot stickers, sesame chicken and the lighter options, such as steamed shrimp with veggies. All are handmade with fresh ingredients. There are a few tables inside, but its primarily takeout or delivery. read more

What a great little restaurant! Super friendly staff & awesome food, lots of it and a great price! There is one larger table for 4 and a few small tables, but I think most people take out. The Mongolian Beef was fantastic! The dinner combo comes with fried rice, egg role & won ton. I would highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Awesome! Mongolian beef is as good as it gets. Perfect balance between smoky, sweet & spicy. The fried rice is not greasy and actually contains good white meat chicken. The rangoons are out of this world and so are the egg rolls - which are very unique. You must try them to really know what I mean :) The service is great - very friendly folks & this is family owned. They will get to know what dish you like. Very good quality food and great prices. NOTE: This is a great place for takeout. There are a few tables but it's mostly takeout. read more

Great place to stop for a quick lunch whether you're dining in or getting it to-go. The service is quick and friendly, the prices are great, and the portions are HUGE! You're basically getting two meals for the price of one when you stop in here. I recommend calling ahead if you're getting yours to-go. Their egg rolls are on point! read more

We ordered $35 worth of food two dinners two appetizers. Never again. Went right to the garbage. Egg foo young was tasteless except for what I believe to be recooked chicken. There was about 3 tablespoons of sauce on the sweet and sour chicken. The ragoons were over fried the potstickers were too thick on the dough and the teriyaki beef was hardly teriyaki I don't know what it was but I had to brush me teeth after to get rid of the awful aftertaste. Never again. I'm telling all my friends on Facebook. read more

Me and my hubby's Go to place. Haven't been disappointed. The Eggrolls are phenomenal and the crab Rangoon are a must have. Best I've ever had. The general chicken isn't current favorite. read more

Cheap food, huge portions, and super friendly staff! I ordered the kung pao shrimp and hot and sour soup for delivery to my hotel and they brought it right to my door! I neglected to tell them I wanted to pay with card when I placed my order but the delivery guy was super nice about it. He just had me call the restaurant and pay over the phone. The shrimp had just the right amount of kick to it but had more celery than shrimp. The soup was a little thin but had good flavor. For the price and convenience though, I can't complain all that much. I ate happily warm and cozy in my pjs! read more

I ALMOST HURT MYSELF BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO STOP EATING! I gave it 4 stars simply because it was my first time! The food was absolutely amazing! I have eaten at several chinese restaurants, but hands down, the food was the best I have had! I ordered a Lunch special: Pepper Steak with white rice and a Veggie Eggroll. The meat was cooked perfect, not fatty or gummy! The rice was steamed perfectly, not sticky or dry! The portion was huge! The egg roll tasted very fresh. I picked up my food. It was ready upon my arrival. The staff was super friendly!! I will definitely be back! read more
