“If this is the best Cambridge has to offer in Chinese restaurants,then its cheaper to drive to Peterborough or down the M11 to London! They don't take cards, but they certainly make up for it in 'handling fees' ie handling of cash! Not even the best Chinese in Chinatown would charge £13 for a portion of steamed dumplings as a starter!...”

We usually travel 37miles to Imperial Bentos in Peterborough, but thought we would try a restaurant closer to home. What a big mistake! Obviously my experience of Chinese food is very different; even though I have eaten Chinese food all over the world...”

- a review of The Peking Restaurant by Tom
“The food was amazing, slightly pricey but you get massive portions for your money. All the food was freshly prepared and the secret recipes of the family that run the restaurant. The staff were incredibly polite, helpful and friendly. They even taught us how to use the chopsticks! The flavours in the food were amazing. Unfortunately we couldn't finish the meal but they bagged the food up...”

Fabulous food if you choose carefully! - review of The Peking Restaurant
