What People Are Saying About Sang Dee Peking Duck House

In Short – The Duck House's clientele is varied: young and old, couples and families, Chinese and non-Chinese. Sang Kee does its part to blast away the stereotypical Chinese fare. Its varied menu contains enough familiar items for the unadventurous, and enough exotic choices for the bold. Believe the hype about its renowned Peking duck: both crispy and juicy enough to qualify as a real treat.

Food is good- service is worst in philly!
by marsattacks
I got delivery, got the wrong food- they wouldnt give me the correct food after i pleaded and pleaded for it on the phone. the owner of the restaurant deserves to be fired- he was really rude to me and i was thinking about suing this place but i figured it wasnt worth it- ALL I WANT YOU TO KNOW IS, THEIR DELIVERY SERVICE IS REALLY REALLY BAD!!!

Best braised beef, period!
by MadM
I've been a patron of this restaurant for the longest time, since back when before they even had upstairs seating and when it was still a hidden gem. I consider myself a foodie and I have to say that this place has one of the best braised beef that you can find although they are very well known for their duck. I would highly recommend for anyone who is a fan of braised beef to try their braised beef noodle soup with the flat rice noodles. Their portions are very generous for the family sized dinners. For the vegetarians, I would recommend their garlic eggplant and their vegetarian dumplings (pan fried), it's a tasty treat. Overall, this places makes very tasty noodle soups and decent family size dinner meals (but there are some that aren't extremely impressive - so be sure to ask for recommendations). I currently don't live in Philadelphia but I still come here often!
- Pros: Duck, braised beef, noodle soups
- Cons: Does not accept credit cards (cash only)

best chinese in C-Town
by foodhunter49
this is the place to go for the best chinese food. i have been a loyal customer for over 7 years now and the food is still as good as it was when i first went there. they have the freshest duck i have ever eaten and i have always been greeted and seated faster here than anywhere else. menu is pretty basic in comparison to other rival restaurants, but it's the simple things that make them heads above the rest. only downfall in my mind is is it is away from the main area of chinatown, tucked in the corner off of vine. this could be a good thing or a bad thing.
- Pros: food, service, price
- Cons: location, parking
