Beijing is described across reviews as a long standing Chinatown staple with generous portions and a broad Cantonese menu, where the food is generally good and the service is quick and friendly. Many praise the authentic flavors, clean venue, and family friendly atmosphere, as well as a varied menu that includes vegetarian options and dishes that appeal to both adults and kids. Some feedback centers on value and price, with praise for good quality relative to cost from some reviewers, while others call it overpriced for the portion sizes and note declines in recent visits. A few reports mention inconsistent dish quality or changes in staff demeanor, occasional takeout issues, and one instance of a tip added without consent. Overall the place often appears as a dependable go to for gatherings and traditional flavors, described as a local gem by many and a place to return to for reliable comfort Chinese food.
J'aimais cet endroit, mais à ma dernière visite j'ai commandé une wonton en entrée avec un mapo tofu & les deux ont été décevants. La wonton avait un bouillon sans saveur & peu de wontons Le mapo tofu ne contenait pas de poivre de Sichuan, c'était très peu intéressant & inauthentique Les nouilles Singapour par contre étaient adéquates, avec un bon niveau d'épice Leurs portions sont généreuses

We had stir-fried lobster, fried rice, & tofu eggplant . All are tasty. The service was excellent. The price is reasonable compared to NYC & LA. We enjoyed our dinner time.
J'avais l'habitude d'aller dans ce resto quand j'allais au quartier chinois. Depuis la pandémie, la bouffe est vraiment passable à mauvaise. & les prix ont grimpé! J'ai pris un crabe salé épicé une de mes entrées préférées. Un vrai désastre. En plus, le chow mein cantonnais était très salé & il fallait chercher le porc. Dommage, c'était une bonne place. C'est devenu une attrape touriste.
Went here expecting a cheap meal by restaurant standards (given it looks like a takeaway or cafe), but felt a little cheated. Two main courses only with plain rice & two cokes ended up costing over $80. The real sting in the tail was the 18% tip added (for service allegedly) to printed bill - not optional but forced upon you. By "service" did they mean the waiter that didn't speak English & looked angry when you asked him a question about the menu? I doubt the locals get that tip put on their bill! The food was tasty enough but no better than a decent takeaway. The inside is functional but thats about the only positive thing to say. Formica tables from the 1970s & a mop that looked filthy & hadn't been changed in years (brought out to clean up a spill) was rather off-putting. The food arrived VERY quickly which was good in one way, but so fast it was troubling. Too fast! The place has a strange system of taking orders- you have to fill out an order form left on your table & hand to waiter. Good luck filling it out because its far from clear what the columns on the form mean. The only waiter doesn't speak English if you need any advice. So all in all, could I recommend? Unfortunately not. If you're going to charge restaurant prices & compulsory tips you need to act like a proper restaurant & this place has a rather grim interior with some cheap tables & plateware, basic fare & is clearly intent on fleecing compulsory tips from the tourist. The staff are all smiles but they clearly know what they're about as they must make a decent living with minimal investment in the business. Probably been operating this way for decades. My fortune cookie at the end said I was going to "live in luxury". It couldn't have meant my visit to the Bejing Restaurant.
The place was a great option since it stayed open late when everything else nearby was closed. The shrimp I ordered was amazing, but I wouldn't recommend the spring roll; while the filling was tasty, it was overly greasy. The staff was nice, & the service was quick. I'd recommend this spot if you're looking for late-night food.
Déçue de ce resto pour la première fois depuis des années. Nous avons pris les boules aux crevettes en entrée: les crevettes n'étaient pas complètement cuites & goûtaient l'ammoniac (donc pas frais). La soupe wonton ne goûtait rien (bouillon qui goûtait l'eau), le boeuf au brocoli goûtait bcp trop l'ail. Service trop rapide, expéditif, brusque....on se questionne à savoir si la nourriture était faite d'avance. Bref, ce n'est plus du tout ce que ça déjà été & je n'y retournerai plus. Mon han est 100 fois meilleur!
