Customer Reviews
We did take out tonight. The service is very fast and prompt. The staff is nice and pleasant. We got chicken wings and pork fried rice and egg rolls. The chicken is good and I appreciate that they are wingettes. The egg rolls were a good size! The rice fell short for me I’m not a fan of peas and carrots in my rice. But overall it’s pretty good food
I have been a customer of Peony Asian Bistro for nearly 20 years. Over that time, I’ve seen the restaurant change hands through multiple owners and management teams. We loved it so much that we even held our small wedding rehearsal dinner there in 2019. It truly was a special place for us. Unfortunately, over the past several years, we’ve watched it gradually decline. We went from being weekly regulars to only stopping in occasionally, hoping each time that things would turn around. During COVID, we ordered takeout frequently. The plastic divider and no-contact setup were completely understandable at the time. When indoor dining reopened, we returned, trying to be supportive. However, there was no heat (only a space heater pointed down the aisle), the tables were permanently sticky, and
Be VERY careful when ordering rice. Pork fried rice is the only free version of fried rice (not even veggie, which pork has anyways) and the pork fried rice is MISERABLE. Straight up turns me away from ever returning here. The sesame chicken has also fallen in quality since I ate here long ago.
I honestly judge an Asian restaurant on its hot and sour soup. I am delighted to discover that Peony Asian Bistro's hot and sour soup may be the best I've EVER had--and that is saying something! It was just the right level of sour and spicy, and the fresh mushrooms floating on top were absolutely delicious. In addition, the consistency of the broth was perfect. Far too many restaurants make it so that the soup is more like gelatin than liquid--ugh. The portion sizes for lunch were very generous, and while the beef and broccoli I ordered was not as flavorful as the soup, it was still pretty good. Finally, the staff were very welcoming and helpful. When I realized I had left my wallet at home, they offered Apple Pay and I was able to have a truly delicious lunch. I am a very happy customer a
I’m definitely coming back to dine in. Loved the food. Loved the half off deals on ubereats! Thought I’d share some photos I took. Spent $30 something on a $50 order🤩
