    Took my girlfriend for Chinese food for the first time and I thought I should choose the best one in town. And it did not disappoint. It had a great atmosphere that makes me homesick, while me and my gf had a great time enjoying the ambience and the food. As a native Beijinger, I believe this is the best Peking duck I've tried outside China. Surprised to see so many local people there. This is the place to have the most authentic Chinese food from China.

    The restaurant has the perfect atmosphere. That, alongside with the employees’ sympathy and the tasty food, made us have an amazing dinner experience

    Always a pleasure eating in this restaurant, friendly staff and wonderful food. A bit expensive but worth the price. Complying with current health regulations

    The Old House's reputation convinced us to try this special restaurant. We enjoyed the setting and beauty of the restaurant, were well greeted and cared for during our languorous lunch. Perfect way to spend the afternoon. Most menu items were unfamiliar to us so we made some bad decisions (rabbit and the scallops) and some wonderful choices (Shai Mai, gyozos, wontons, pancakes).

    Seeing the reviews we where expecting more, especially looking at the pictures provided. The food was ok, but again the ratings didn’t reflect the quality. Maybe we are just spoiled or ordered the wrong things.. the electronic ordering is also not great, dumplings arriving at same time as main course and wine after we had started eating.. in all ok but not better..

    Always has been good although this time, the prawn dumpling wasn't warm enough when served. All the other dishes were good! It was fairly quiet on a Saturday lunch. We had the indoor dining room to ourselves.

    Most of the food was excellent. The gyoza was wonderful. We ordered 2 desserts, and they were not as expected. And the soup was tasty but so small.

    Busy place that couldn't seat us for our lunch reservation without a wait or table at the back. Long wait before a menu appeared and even longer before any order was taken. It was forty minutes before we got a drink. The waiter was friendly and helpful, but it always worries me when they don't write anything down; where's the advantage to that?? And duly one ordered dish failed to appear, but at least it wasn't on the bill. What food we did have was great and that is the positive we took away.

    The space is incredible and really nice. We were promptly greated an seated. The food was very good, but definitely overpriced for the quality. The Peking duck was good, not incredible. The egg yolk bao was a major let down, has it was frozen, from the atmosphere and price was really expecting a fresh product.

    Amazing food, had the buns with pork and steamed dumplings with shrimps. The rabbit was terrific and also the spinach, the fried seafood spicy enough. The service a bit slow. There was a service tax on 13 percent. Would come back again if I could!

    Since years we are regular clients in this restaurant. This time the service was really poor and the food disappointing. Specially the "delicious duck" was everything but delicious. The cook only poored a lot of honey over a piece of duck. It had nothing to do with the quality we were used in the past.

    I was planning to visit The Old House for quite some time and had great expectations. Overall it was a pleasant experience. Good service but the room was noisy. Price / Quality ratio is not great and should be improved. Also the dessert list seemed to be somehow limited, when compared with the other courses.

    Excellent food, atypical of what I expected. From NYC grew up with Cantonese. Peking Duck was superb!
