Running low on groceries, so we ate dinner at Hunan Peking in Oakville. Oh my gosh guys .... this place is great! Upon sitting, we were immediately served ice water and hot tea (we didn't have to ask for either). The waitress/owner was *very* sweet and explained to us the difference between typical Hunan Chinese food (basically, its a bit spicier). I got the orange chicken and it was *really* good ... She even picked out the peas from the fried rice (love fried rice hate peas) and gave them to Michael! When she brought the check, we got the usual 2 fortune cookies, but also 2 shortbread cookies. St Louis peeps ... you should try out this place. The food was really yummy, the portions were ge...
The fried rice was not very tasty and was dry. We waited an hour and forty minutes for delivery (but she did tell us it would be over an hour when we placed the order because they were VERY busy) so perhaps the rice sat for a long time? The crab Rangoon was typical good. What is not to love about fried cream cheese after all? The hot and our soup was YUMMY and just what the doctor ordered! The crunchy noodles that accompanied it were large and fresh. The crispy shrimp was great. The shrimp are big and the broccoli was perfectly steamed. The sauce is fantastic. We will definitely be ordering from here in the future.

This was my first time ordering from this restaurant, and I got steamed dumplings and shrimp fried rice. I’m not sure how it was prepared, but the smell was awful—I had to roll down my windows during the drive home. I hoped it would taste better than it smelled. Unfortunately, the dumplings weren’t steamed at all; they were just cooked on the grill, and there was some kind of sausage inside them. The shrimp fried rice was bland, though it was still edible. Even after dinner, the smell lingered in my house, and I ended up throwing everything away. Lesson learned!

If you're anything like me, you've probably attempted to enjoy Chinese food, trying out various new restaurants one after another. You tell yourself each time that this will be the one, yet you walk away disappointed. A few years ago, a friend took me to this place, and honestly, it was one of the best discoveries for my taste buds. The food is excellent! Seriously, why can't anyone else manage to freeze rice that perfectly? The owners are friendly and dedicated to their work. If you've made it this far in my review, you really need to check it out for yourself!
This was my first time ordering take out from here. Ordered steamed dumplings and shrimp fried rice. I don’t know what it was cooked in/with but I know the smell was horrific and I had to roll down my windows. I was hoping it tasted better than itsmelled. The “steamed” dumplings were not steamed at all, just cooked on the grill, and it some sort of sausage in themiddle. The shrimp fried rice was bland, but edible. That “weird” smell lingered in the air after bringing the food in thehouse. I had to take everything out to the trash can. Lesson learned.

One of my friends brought me here years ago. Honestly, one of the bestthings to happen to my palette. The food is great. Seriously, why can 't anyone else fry rice like this? The owners are friendlyand hard working. If you made it this far into this random internet review, you need to go there and find out for yourself.
Great lunch specials. Excellent HOT Sour soup plus the crab Rangoon are very tasty. Have eaten here a half dozen times and tried different dish each and have not been disappointed yet. Excellent service. I recommend to friends frequently.
