This place is fireeeeeee Classic, delicious and sexy ass Korean Chinese food!! The tangsuyuk here is FOCKEN FIRE The batter is perfectly crispy and cronchy and the meat inside is so juicy and yummy. The sauce is so good, it's tangy, sweet, sour just MUAH! I ate tf out this dish.. we had to order rice bc it was so addicting... I dream about the tangsuyuk bro I usually order the jjamppong but I think the soup lacks some flavor and spice even tho I added a gang load of chili powder. They do pack that bih was hella seafood tho, like plump ass shrimps, squid, octopus and mussels. I think the jajangmyun is bomb!! It's so yummy, the sauce is perfect. I'll be getting this all the time now~ The Kung pao chicken is yummy too. Lots of chicken and I lovelovelove the spiciness in it. The peanuts add the perfect lil cronch as well The service here is great, servers are attentive and very informative when we asked a million questions This place is awesome!! Highly highly recommend for anyone looking for some dank ass Korean Chinese food read more

1/5 Stars -- Poor food quality, hygiene concerns, and outdated interior. * Food: The tangsuyuk was almost entirely breading with tiny portions of meat. The jjajangmyun arrived clumped together, the seafood dish lacked both flavor and actual seafood, and the Chinese broccoli looked unappetizing. * Atmosphere: The dining room is grimy, dingy, and severely outdated (looking like it hasn't seen an update in decades), which makes the cleanliness of the kitchen questionable. * Service: Highly unhygienic server handling--touching the rims of cups and grabbing tableware near the parts that go into your mouth. Safe to say I won't be coming back. read more

I've gone to Peking Gourmet for years and had delicious experiences each time. The jajangmyun, jjampong, and sweet and sour pork are classics. My favorite is jajangmyun, the black bean noodles. I love the food, it's a comfort food for me, but I tend to feel a bit of a food coma after a meal here. The criticisms in reviews don't seem fair. Some reviewers write about a rude attitude from employees and a belief that people who speak the Korean language are treated better than those who don't. I've seen people who only speak English and are courteous being treated warmly. Furthermore, the employees here don't miss a beat. The timing of when the entrees arrive to the table after ordering has been consistent over the years. I have not ever waited long for the kimchi, rice, and entrees to arrive, and for our family to be eating. Everything tastes the same as when I first started going decades ago, which is fantastic. read more

Portion sizes here are huge!!! We ordered a jajangmyeon which was delicious and noodles had great texture. Green beens were good too but a bit oily for my liking. I loved the sweet and sour pork it was super crispy!! Food came out fast and service was good. read more

Always reliable & tasty food. We've been going there for decades and the wait staff are the same so I think that's a good sign. The owner ladies are always friendly. My husband enjoys their jja-jang-myun & i like their spicy garlic shrimp. The other dishes are good too. We order from the family menu when we have more than 8-10 people. You won't go wrong with trying this restaurant. read more

OG. Can't believe I have not reviewed this place. Probably one of few places they actually use Wok to make Jjajangmien. And one of few places they still pull their noodles. Price is still decent and everyone here orders Shrimp with Garlic sauce and Jjajiangmyun. read more

This place has been here forever! It's a great place to go with a bunch of people and have a family style dinner. The food comes out quick and it may not be a Michelin star worthy food but it's definitely a comfort food for a lot of people. Their black bean noodles are a staple but I also recommend the spicy shrimp, sweet n sour pork, and sizzling rice soup. Their jjambbong (spicy seafood noodle soup) is just ok.. Service is great because I think the servers recognize my family but speaking Korean also helps. Unfortunately, I have witnessed some of the servers being kind of rude to other patrons. The servers are just always in a rush. But I always find myself going back whenever we have a big group. Don't expect a nice, clean, modern ambiance. The carpets old, decor is questionable, and sometimes there's a weird smell. But I will continue to go here. read more

I don't come here often but it's a Korean Chinese classic institution in Garden Grove. We got the usual of black bean noodles, sweet and sour pork, and seafood noodle soup...aka jajangmyeon, tangsuyuk, and jjamppong. The food did not disappoint and came out instantly, although it was a Friday at noon. It was piping hot and fresh, and definitely too much for just two people so we took some home for leftovers. It was not too busy but the people that were here were all Korean, so that's how you know it's a good place. read more

The black bean noodles here are TO DIE FOR and I'm not exaggerating! These noodles are amazing the sauce is out of this world would go back anytime just for these noodles. The portions are HUGE everything is shareable and you'll still end up with leftovers. There are so many different protein options, everything we got was yummy. Im gonna go back and try everything. When we went the place was not too crowded, orders were taken quickly and came out pretty quickly too. The restaurant is very big, perfect to go with big groups or family, basic environment but amazing hole in the wall place read more

One of my favorite places for Korean-Chinese comfort food is Peking Gourmet. I came for their famous Jjajangmyeon (black bean noodles), and it definitely lived up to the hype. The noodles were perfectly chewy, and the black bean sauce was rich, savory, and packed with flavor. I loved how the sauce coated every strand of noodle, creating a comforting and satisfying dish without feeling too heavy. It's the kind of meal that keeps you coming back whenever you're craving something hearty and delicious. The restaurant has a casual, old-school atmosphere that feels authentic and welcoming. It reminds me of the kind of neighborhood spot that's been serving loyal customers for years. The service was friendly and efficient, and the food arrived quickly even during a busy lunch rush. If you're looking for authentic Korean-Chinese cuisine in Orange County, Peking Gourmet is definitely worth a visit. Their Jjajangmyeon is a must-order, and I can see why it has remained a local favorite for so many years. read more

It has been a while since I visited Peking Gourmet, but I was craving their black bean noodle so bad. Hands down still the best black noodle spot! There was so much meat in the sauce and the noodles are perfect texture. I also love their walnut shrimps! The portion is huge as always! Also tried their salt pepper squid for the first time and It was bomb! They def get their batter down for their fried stuffs. Service is nice as always. I happy to see that the restaurant is booked and busy. Please don't ever move away! read more

I came with friends who were very familiar with the restaurant. Followed all their recommendations and everything was delicious and each dish had a unique flavor. It's as authentically Chinese/Korean flavors as I ever crave and it'll be a regular stop for me as often as I can. I can't wait to take my dad here for dinner because it has our favorite Sizzling Rice Soup the way we enjoyed it when I was growing up. pan fried dumplings- excellent, perfect oily crispy goodness and the filling was the best I've enjoyed in a long while sizzling rice soup- must have for comfort food walnut shrimp- generous portions all around- perfectly fried and candy glazed sweet and sour chicken- crispy goodness!! jjangmyeon (sp??) another crowd favorite!! fried rice- a favorite Mongolian beef- flavorful too Note to try their egg rolls next time so I can hopefully enjoy another favorite appetizer of mine. Service was very quick and helpful. They were so kind on our visit and attentive to clearing our plates. Despite some of the reviews below, my first visit here went very well. We were celebrating two friends' birthdays and it was such a delicious get together. read more

I came here with a large party (29 people with 3 tables) and had such a good experience. First of all the staff is super nice and food came out so fast after ordering. You can call to make ressies! The best parts: - free kimchi - water taste soo good - honey walnut shrimp was such a big portion - very well priced and accommodating highly recommend if you are looking for a place for a large party! They dont charge a minimum per table but they do automatically include the tip which is more than fair since we were such a large group. Still was the cheapest option for a group of our size. read more

For my early birthday lunch, my family finally checked out this place in Garden Grove around 12pm. We were greeted and sat immediately in their larger party area (place is perfect for big dining groups or parties) Looking through the menu, they have really affordable lunch specials but we opted to do dinner portions. We went the honey walnut shrimp, sweet and sour pork, beef fried rice, and chicken chow mein. For an appetizer we also got the sizzling rice soup. Our server was talking to our nephew entertaining him and everything which was very thoughtful! Food came out pretty quick. Our server brought the soup out with the crispy rice and poured it on there before serving it to us. The soup was light and delicious! Next all our main courses came out! One thing I have to say is even though we ate a lot of it and it filled us up, everything tastes light! The sweet and sour pork was very crispy! The walnut shrimp was delicious and crunchy as well! The chow mein was great but my favorite had to be the beef fried rice. It was packed with beef and tasted amazing! We paid around $100 plus tip and for how much food was left over, I think it was a great value! The hostess at the front was really appreciative of the tip we left, asked how everything tasted, and invited us to come back again. Overall, this place is awesome! From the friendly service and to the amazing food and value, I would I highly recommend getting your Chinese food fix here! Definitely will be coming back soon! read more

Jjajangmyeon is one of my favorite Korean dishes so I'm picky but this was sooo good. The noodles were chubbier than I'm used to but I still liked it and the flavor and sauciness level were on point. I also like that you can order a half portion here to try more dishes. The tangsuyuk is almost never my pick at Korean-Chinese restaurants but wow it was so crispy and fresh here so did not regret ordering. This place was also full of locals that seemed to know the servers and workers here which was nice to see. My new favorite Korean-Chinese fusion in the area! read more

I have fond memories of Peking Gourmet and have come here for decades. My parents used to bring our family here nearly every weekend and this was our special occasion restaurant. On this last visit, the extended family made reservations for Christmas Day lunch. People, you've got to make reservations on holidays. The restaurant was jam packed and this place is an average sized restaurant. There were groups of families standing outside and in the entranceway, obviously no reservations, waiting for people to leave. Because we had reservations for a group of 20+, we were directed to the side room, separated from the main seating area. They reserved us 3 tables in the back. They told us to place our orders before the kitchen got too crazy, so our food came out pretty quickly. We ordered the orange chicken; garlic shrimp; sweet and sour pork; Mongolian beef; spicy tofu; and Zhajiangmian. Everything was so good, I forgot to take pictures! There are Lazy Susans at the center of each table, so when the dishes are placed in the center, you can spin it around. They also serve a pot of tea, kimchee, and a container of rice. No orange slices or fortune cookies today because they were so busy. By the way, this is the first restaurant that I ever ate candied yams. I used to ask my parents to request them for me. If they still serve them on special occasions, they are the BEST! Parking: Plenty of free, shared parking. read more

This is one of the better Korean-Chinese restaurants in OC. Can't go wrong here. Definitely order the jjajangmyeon. Share it so that you can save room to enjoy the other dishes on the menu like the fried shrimp or fried rice. It was not busy at all when I came. read more

We came for a late weekday lunch and there were many older Koreans enjoying their meal here, that's how you know it's good. We ordered two dishes: large Black Bean noodles & Sweet and Sour Pork. It was perfect shared amongst the 3 of us. The food was prepared very fast after ordering and the workers are really nice. The restaurant was bigger than I expected with lots of indoor seating. ig: @cravingswithcat read more

They say MSG is bad for you but what kind of life would it be if you didn't have it? And why, oh why does it taste so good? The prime example would be Chinese food. More specifically Chinese fusion food. Even more specifically Chinese-Korean fusion food. Garden Grove used to be littered with places like Peking Gourmet before the vast majority of Koreans migrated to Fullerton & Buena Park. Peking Gourmet, however, stands strong in a city that has South East Asian food as its dominant cuisine. Thanks to them Garden Grove serves as a destination for people looking for a filling bowl of Chachiang Mein or a Spicy Seafood Soup for those in need of a hangover cure. You add on some salt and pepper squid, string beans and or sweet and sour pork to complete the start of a perfect Sunday. Sometimes it's the simple things in life,like MSG filled food that really matter and bring you joy. Stay being grateful for the little things that are actually the big things my friends..... read more

Please come through and try this delicious Korean Chinese traditional cuisine. Support businesses that have been there for a decade over corporatized restaurants chains! You have to get their famous black bean noodles and spicy seafood noodle soup. Great for big parties and solo dinners as well. Great service quick and friendly.

Wanted to gate keep this place if I could but they deserve more recognition. I called ahead a reservation during lunch time on a weekend, lots of big families filled up not just the dining area but parking too. They came out with the food pretty quickly and food was delicious. If I could pick only one item, I highly recommend the walnut shrimp! But everything else was good too, such as the string beans, black bean noodles, kung pao chicken, and bejing beef! The best spot for family sized parties. read more

Came as a party of 3 at 1 PM on a Saturday. The place was busy, but there was no wait. Parking can be difficult depending on the time of day, you may have to drive around the plaza to find a spot. We ordered the fried shrimp with hot garlic sauce, jajangmyeon, and tangsuyuk. Standard service, huge portions and great bang for your buck. If you were to only get one dish, I highly recommend the fried shrimp! It was crispy and delicious. The sauce was amazing! You can't go wrong with the jajangmyeon either. I would pass on the tangsuyuk, it was a little dry and you can find better at other restaurants. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough! read more

Peking Gourmet is one of those Orange County restaurants that has been around forever. Yes, this restaurant has been in operation for decades. What they serve here is a very good selection of California style Chinese cuisine. They have all of the dishes that you would expect from a modern Chinese restaurant. And, the food they serve served here is always very well prepared and very tasty. In terms of layout, they have two main dining areas. They have their main dining area, which you'll notice the moment you walk in the business. Then, they have their side room. This is where you'll see the larger tables. And, if you ever go there for family events, this is the room/tables that they reserve for larger groups. In terms of service, it's as expected. If there's a lot of people, sometimes the service can be a little bit slow. Not bad, but just a little bit slow. Most of the time, however, you'll get your meals very quickly. Speaking of reservations, I really suggest that you have them, especially on the days where a large crowd may congregate like on holidays. And yes, they are one of the few restaurants that is open on Christmas day. On days like this, if you don't have a reservation, your wait can be quite a while. So, for holidays and other high volume days, I really suggest you make a reservation before you go, with this, they'll sit you quickly, and you'll be able to enjoy your meal without having to stand outside, in a line, for a longer period of time. In terms of pricing, that's one of the main draws of this restaurant. By my definition, it's very cheap. You can truly enjoy a grand meal for a small amount of money. This, compared to many of the other Chinese orientated restaurants in the larger LA/OC area. In terms of parking, they have a relatively small parking lot. The thing to know is, you need to drive into the back, past the restaurant, if you want to find easier parking. With this, yes, you may have to walk a little bit to get to the front door, but you should be able to find a spot. Overall, if you want to get some tasty Chinese cuisine, and you're in the Garden Grove/Orange County area, this may be the place for you read more

I gave perfect score because the rooms are clean. The manager(or owner) is very kind and attentive. I had been to this restaurant for 30+ years. Always busy, but service was never sloppy.

This place has been in the community for decades and they're well known for Korean owner but great, very decent reasonable prices and the black ink noodles. I had been to this place over 3 decades. Used to go here with my kid and/or with his friends & cousins. I also had through family Christmas for a group of 70 people. The place is big and can handle over 250 people easily with private rooms and common area. Parking is easy since they do have a good size of parking lot. Clean and simple but Chinese vibe for sure. The staff here are very nice, attentive, helpful and only guys (have not seen a woman beside the cashier or owner at the front desk). The menu has plenty & simple of typical Chinese or American/Chinese dishes. Don't get me wrong, I like it and reminded me of the early years. Easy and fast turn around for sure. Tasty and nice portion, it's not the best nor the worst but worth it for the price and yummy. This place used to be Packed all the time during lunch time or weekends & holiday. But it easy less these days. Took my kid and went here for late late lunch or very early dinner so just 3-4 tables but same taste, consistency and nice, warm service. So glad I stopped by, been a long time since I was here. read more

I've been coming here with my family ever since I was a kid! Would have rated it 5 stars but there were some things lacking in our latest visit. The shrimp in garlic hot sauce & shrimp fried rice are always a hit. We come specifically for the jjajjangmyun but it just wasn't as good as it usually is - we probably won't go back for it sadly. It's a popular spot for big parties but once you're seated, service is quick! They're usually pretty busy though so it's somewhat hard to flag down a server because they're focused on getting customers in and out. read more

Sweet and sour pork was over cooked with oils and stale. Lady charged us double amount and apologized when we caught it.

This used to be one of my favorite family-style dining spots for over two years, and we've always enjoyed coming here, until this visit. We found more than five small bugs/insects in both my plate and my son's. At first I thought the bugs may have just flew into the plate, but no it was mixed in with the protein... I completely lost my appetite. I don't think I can come back without thinking about the insects in my food, such a bummer. read more

We came here for a birthday gathering last night around 5pm. Thankfully, we came at the right time because it got super busy shortly after. We were seated in the "party room" that was sectioned off in another room. We had a party of over 20 people and they were able to sit us all together without bothering other guests. The food came out extremely quick and tasted amazing. There are plenty of vegetarian and pescatarian options aside from the typical beef, chicken, pork, and duck options. We ordered a range from fried rice, noodles, soup, honey walnut shrimp, beijing beef. All tasted amazing but my favorite had to be the honey walnut shrimp and the egg flower soup. read more
