Peking Duck House

At Peking Duck House in Midtown NYC, it's all about the duck. Featuring sophisticated Chinese cooking and the best duck in the city. At Peking Duck House, we prepare well in advance. First, air is first pumped into the duck to stretch and loosen the skin, and then boiled water is repeatedly spread over the bird, which is then carefully dried. The dried skin is rubbed all over with maltose and the duck is then roasted in a hot oven for a period of time until the meat is tender and the skin crispy to perfection. We serve our duck with house-made pancakes, green scallions, fresh cucumbers and special sauce. Our Midtown East location has a full service bar and corkage fee. Midtown offers a casual, comfortable and contemporary setting, the restaurant is comprised of two main dining areas and a private room for special events and engagements. Whether it is for a quick bite for lunch or a sit-down dinner, our chefs offer you flavorful dishes that give you every reason to fight for that last piece and agree with our many patrons in saying, "it was the best Chinese food I've ever had."
