About This Spot

Walking into Peking Garden Restaurant, you’re met with an ambiance that feels both warmly familiar and quietly refined. The setting draws you into a space where time seems to slow down amid elegant, old-world details that echo a rich history, inviting a lingering experience rather than a rushed meal. It’s the kind of place where conversations extend naturally, and plates come filled with comforting, generously portioned dishes that reveal a thoughtful connection to authentic Chinese flavors.

The pace here encourages savoring each moment — from the gentle clink of fine china to the soft murmur of friendly staff who know their menu well and seem genuinely pleased to share it. Whether you’re drawn in by the inviting sizzle of fresh stir-fries or the quiet ritual of sipping jasmine tea, the restaurant offers a delicate balance of lively energy and cozy familiarity.

A visit to Peking Garden is as much about the human moments as the food itself. Families gather around tables, enjoying shared plates that spark stories and smiles, while longtime locals appreciate the consistency of their favorite dishes. The presence of a modest bar offers another layer to the experience — a chance to linger with a well-crafted Mai Tai or a simple, soothing bowl of wonton soup as the evening unfolds.

In this corner of Lake Charles, Peking Garden holds a quietly enduring place as a welcoming retreat where the heartiness of Hunan-style cooking meets the attentive, patient rhythm of service. It’s a spot that invites discovery, where each visit feels like returning to a treasured neighborhood gem — familiar yet always offering something new to enjoy.

Service is slow on a busy night but who cares the food is like so on point! I ordered Robert Hale Shrimp Noodles or something which wasn't spicy at all to me. I ate it all!! I also ordered 6 eggrolls and fried rice to go bc the eggrolls are the best in all Lake Charles! Plus they have a mini bar with variety of drinks!

Luxurious, old world decor coupled with hearty portions of flavorful, authentic Hunan dishes makes Peking a genuine historic treasure for northeast Lake Charles. Oh, the staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, too.

The atmosphere is gorgeous and the food is phenomenal. My mother, my two daughters, and I eat there somewhat regularly and always have a wonderful experience. I will say the location is not the greatest and at our last visit there was a woman being led out by police officers in handcuffs which by no means does that reflect poorly on the staff and absolutely is not the norm. When I say location isn’t the greatest, I don’t want to give the wrong impression. This is a relatively low crime city, but it is located in a part of town that is close to where there are higher than normal illegal activities in comparison to other areas of the city. The restaurant itself and the immediate surrounding area are quiet and safe. The service is usually a bit slow but that’s ok atleast for us because we go to enjoy a good time, having good food in a great atmosphere with family and I must say, I have never tried anything I did not absolutely love there and the place is warm and classy. Try the egg rolls are the BEST in town!

The food was excellent. The portions are huge for the price. Everyone was super friendly and helpful and our waitress was awesome. Our drinks were never empty.

We went there for a early supper. We were the only ones there eating in the whole restaurant till we were almost done eating, It was very romantic. Almost like my husband planned that. The waitress was great and so was the food.

We absolutely love this place. The foos is amazing. Other reviews say it is bland….NO! Everything we ordered was full of flavor. Egg Rolls are to die for. Shrimp Toast was very good. Loved the House Chicken and Wonton Soup. Volcano Drink was really good. Prices might seem high but you get a huge portion. Our service was not slow like other reviews mentioned.
