Amazing Peking duck! Crispy skin, great flavor, beautifully presented.
We were in Pacific Mall yesterday and by chance we saw this restaurant in the mall. We had been in their previous location in North York and it was a good restaurant. We thought we would treat ourselves to their “famous” peking duck.We ordered the $68 dinner for 2 with half a peking duck, 1 lobster and green beans. The lobster was ok but the rest was terrible. The green beans were literally drenched in oil and thrown onto a tiny plate with dark sauce smeared all over the plate. The peking duck finally came after 30 minutes and it was not anywhere close to a peking duck should look and taste. It was dry and tasteless. When we complained to the waiter, he said the duck was first baked then deep fried. In other words, it was not properly prepared like any other peking ducks you can find in other Chinese restaurants. All in all, a terrible dinner experience.In short, stay away from this restaurant unless you don’t mind paying restaurant prices for extremely poor quality food and service.
The duck dish was really good that came with their special dipping sauce. Everything else was good but not exceptional. Overall a nice place to have Chinese dinner with your family.
Pleasantly surprised as it was our first time here. We were a little hesitant since there was no one there. We had the set meal where w3 had a choice of lobster or fish. They didn’t have the lobster and we were a little disappointed. Everything else were very good. The duck was tasty, the fish was good and the beans were ver tasty.
Very happy to spent a hundred dollars with this restaurant’s take out, including unsalted eggplant, uncooked shrimp in the fried rice, the dried dried sweet and sour pork with the less-amount of peaking duck (the most of are duck skins). The last thing: sour or bad tofu in the duck bones soup, then everyone of our family members who ate the tofu was went to washroom one by one :(

This is not the same restaurant after moving to Pacific Mall.The portions are small, the food is cold, and it's unreasonably pricey for what you're given.We ordered the $68, 2 people meal for half a peking duck and 1 lobster. It was about 8 pieces of lobster, and 6 wrappings of duck. This came down to about $85 after tax and tip and we are not full.Do yourself a favor and go to Dragon Pearl for $35 a head, you can get all you can eat peking duck and much much more for the same price.
The waiter was pleasant and helpful. The Hot & Sour Soup was not hot nor sour; it was watery, thin, and bland. It needed A LOT of extra soya sauce, chilli pepper, and vinegar to become edible. The beef hot plate was also bland. Puzzling. Szechuan Chinese food is characterized by it's spices. In fact, Iron Chef Chinese, on the original Iron Chef series from Japan, famously used to say that, for Szechuan Chinese food, "It's all in the spices!" Suffice it to say, Iron Chef Chinese does not cook at Peking Man Restaurant. Look elsewhere for Szechuan Chinese food.
Peking duck is tasty, skin is crispy and meat is juicy. I can feel the chef’s passion to make the perfect duck.Prices are reasonable, it’s a hidden gem in Pacific mall.
Ordered the Peking duck & the noodle in the gravy. Sorry to say that I am not impressed, and very disappointed with the noodle in gravy (Not enough gravy to make it like a true "Dah Lu Mien" 大魯麵)... Not sure if the original Peking Man restaurant on Sheppard E near Leslie was sold to new owner and moved to Pacific mall. I truly miss the one on Sheppard E.
