    Spicy Chicken with onions & peppers
    J E.

    I love stopping in to any restaurant that's part of Peter Chang's group of restaurants, whether it's a Peter Chang's, Ni Hao, Mam Changs, etc... That style of Chinese food is one of my favs. So, when visiting the area I came in for lunch on a Monday. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Getting there around 1PM they had several table sat, which I was surprised to see, yet very happy to see too! It meant that there are others who value really good, Authentic Chinese food and flavors[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I started with their cucumbers and asked for them to be spicy. Once they arrived, I have to say I was disappointed as they were fresh, but there was hardly any flavor to them at all and the "sauce" in the bottom of the dish wasn't actually tossed in with the cucumbers, rather they were just sat on top and the flavors were on the bland side. They also just tossed a bunch of whole cilantro on top, rather than pulling the leaves and chopping those and mixing them in, which is how the dish should have been served. Next up was their egg drop soup... yeah, it's an American-Chinese item, but it's a fav of mine and it came with the lunch item I ordered, which is the only reason I got it. It tasted great! I could tasted the freshness of all ingredients in it, but the fried wonton pieces that came with it were beyond horribly stale - NASTY! Those should never be served! My local, Fredericksburg Peter Changs (before they recently closed down) served amazing, fresh fried noodles to accompany soup. This is a management/chef issue that needs to be corrected with this location!! Next was the spicy chicken with peppers and onions... They were good, but far from spicy and definitely was missing some umami flavor I'm used to in this dish, from when I get it at other locations. I also tried their beef with three peppers... It came out looking not very authentic, rather quite "American" as it was saucy and resembling the beef from beef & broccoli. Flavor was ok, but far from what I've had with this particular dish in the past, which was very disappointing. Overall - service was nice. The food was too Americanized, which I suspect was why I saw so many people in there. Reviews for any authentic (Pakistani, Chinese, etc) place are typically mid-low level as most who use these review/social media sites are clueless as to what the food is actually supposed to taste like. I'll give this place a 3, but for authenticity it deserves a 2. Would I return, nope, there are too many places to try in the VA Beach area.

    How I have I never been to a Peter Changs is beyond me. I am glad I finally did visit. Not going to lie, this was the most convenient thing next to Walgreens and I was STARVING! But I am glad I did check it out. I ordered a lunch special to go and checked out the restaurant while I waited. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is very big inside and they have a full bar. It's great for larger parties and they have lazy susans on a lot of the tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I love that. I think they need a bigger fish tank....those fish were huge!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's very clean inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And the staff was very friendly!! I ordered the beef and onions and it came with a spring roll, rice and soup. It was delicious. Lots of onions and the beef was perfectly cooked and tender. The rice was also perfectly cooked. This is not your average chinese restaurant. They have different items that you don't normally see. There were definitely some things I would like to go back and try like the dumplings and Dan Dan noodles and the Bang Bang shrimp and the lettuce wraps. :) For those looking for traditional chinese dishes they have those too.

    Today's order: pork bao appetizer, braised fish in spicy sauce, beef flat noodles and (to go) tea smoked duck. Been a while since we were here, and pleased to see that place is still very nice. Everything looks clean and upscale. Staff was pleasant and accommodating. Fish was nicely spiced (I often have to request extra, but this was on point! Definitely recommend!

    Lunch Menu for Monday to Friday

    Good service and nice staff! We ordered the lunch menu and the portion is great. They are spicy enough and lunch come with the hot and sour soup and egg roll.

    Great food. I ordered the Basil Chicken and it was perfect. Highly recommend Peter Chang

    Loved how cute and tasty this restaurant was. The service was fast and they were kind. The portions are amazing I love that I had leftovers to take home. Husband and I ordered and then used the extra plates to share. The lomein and fried rice were delicious. Just one star off because it was a bit greasy for my liking. Not too greasy but just more than I'd like. I definitely want to return.

    Holy Wuhan this stuff is good. When I get Chinese I'm looking for sauced up crunchy chicken bites with white rice and that's exactly what I got!

    15. General Tso's Chicken Lunch
    Kevin R.

    What I liked most is that I could go online and place an order. While this was a great time saver, the lack of picture showing the products was a negative to me as every place doesn't cook items the same so a picture reference would have been nice. The actual inside of the place is inviting. LED lights and dim lighting, big tables that seat parties of 10 or more with spinning capabilities to promote sharing of food. The wait time was minor as well. Now, the food was just okay, the general was the best, I also got a six piece salt and pepper chicken which was just okay at best. The most disappointing item had to be the fried rice. It was bland and unappealing. Truly made the entire meal experience one that I would not want to have again. It sucks because it was close to my job but I guess I'll have to go a little further for Chinese.

    Bang bang shrimp, general tso chicken,  Kung pao chicken, and veggie fried rice.

I called earlier in the day to see if we should make reservations, but was told they wouldn't be busy. Well, we got there and while they had plenty of tables at 6:30PM, but 7PM that place was completely packed! They had lots of carry-out orders happening too, which all made the kitchen a little slow. We ordered many dishes to share and all started coming out one after another over the next hour until the beef & broccoli was the last dish. Again, I attribute the slowness of the kitchen to their being so busy. At least all the food that came out was very fresh, tasty, and piping hot. Some interesting items that were quite good were their potatoes and green peppers. This dish is something I've never seen before but was pretty good! It features long julienned potatoes that they clearly soak in water before wok'ing with the peppers - that was all that was in the dish, but it was still tasty. Their Fish in Chili Oil & Bean Sprouts was really tasty and fresh! The fish is flounder. Their spicy wontons in chili oil were very popular with our group too. Service here was friendly too and helpful. Like I said, we tried many items, so many more than I just outlined and all were nice. I'd definitely return for a slightly more elevated Chinese menu from what you get at the typical Chinese-American joints.

We also didn't get our fortune cookies..in either bag..so no fortunes for us I guess.

I like that it's spaced out and you're not over crowded. Our waitress Catherine was awesome. She's always nice, friendly, and patient. She gave us the menu specials and allowed us to chat a bit before ordering. My friend ordered the cheese wontons, general tso chicken and dan dan noodles. The wontons were really good. I like that they were sweet and crispy. I'd get them again for sure. The dan dan noodles were spicy and flavorful. My sister and I got the Mongolian chicken, storm fish, and eggplant. This is my go to meal that I normally get, it's always tasty. The storm fish normally comes with a spicy mayo sauce, but they didn't have it this time. The fish was still ok, but the sauce is what gives it flavor, so it was a little bland this time. The eggplant and Mongolian chicken were yum, hot, and fresh!! I definitely recommend this restaurant to alot of people. I just think it's more elevated compared to regular Chinese takeout food. They have many delicious options on the menu, and again the vibe is chill. If you're planning a group dinner this is definitely a great option.

I found maybe 4 at most. It was also disappointing most of the sauce was on the bottom. So it's imperative you stir everything from bottom up upon receiving the order.

I otherwise would have specifically requested the order be made without the them. I am not a big fan of mushrooms and especially the fragrant kind like the shiitake variety. I feel like I had mouthfuls of mushrooms in each bite and that's all I tasted. Perhaps I will order something else they are more known for the next time I believe they specialize in Szechuan cuisine.
