In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Los Angeles; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in California are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. On most of those days it is open 5 pm–1:30 am. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. You can reach Peking Tavern at (213) 393-7106; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions. More information is available on its website, pekingtavern.com.

Customers rate it 4.5 out of 5 on Google across 415 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded chinese restaurants in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Los Angeles follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Came late on a Saturday Night. They have the nicest bartenders I have ever met in my life at any bar. The main dude with a ponytail constantly checked up on us and gave off the friendliest vibe. Perfect new spot for me as I live across the street. One-inch punch was a great cocktail!

Certainly an unexpected find while visiting Little Tokyo! Went with three people to get a Chinese meal and was pleasantly suprised when we walked in. The decorations and design of the restaurant is stunning; the atmosphere was nice and the choice of furniture was stylish and comfortable. The alternative music was nice background sound so we could comfortably talk without feeling like it was overbearing. We were the only people in there (interestingly enough) so the service was exceptional and fast. We got a bunch of food: scallion pancakes, beansprout salad (?), their special dumpling set, as well as two noodles. All the food tasted pretty good and the pork dumplings and wontons were especially wonderful. The only thing was some portions felt small, the pancake was a bit dry, and the noodles felt heavily seasoned with pepper. However it was a good price for the amount of food ordered, highly recommend the special dumpling meal deal. I hope more people come to this restaurant, it's really beautiful.

We found this place online when looking for somewhere to eat while in the area. It was easy to find but there’s better parking or street meter. The red color was nice and calming. We arrived on a Saturday early evening and it wasn’t crowded so we were seated right away. We ordered dumplings, wonton noodle soup, pop chicken without the sauce and lomagai. The food was delicious and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. Most of us just ordered sodas but the matcha Nicole was tasty. The staff was friendly but I took a star off because we waited forever to get our check. The bathrooms were clean and the waiting area was decorated. They also have a key so only patrons are able to use the restrooms.

The food was delicious and well presented. The service was really good too, highly recommend πŸ‘Œ this place. Where do I start, had a ball in this place on the karaoke 🎀 it was soo much fun and kinda unexpected. Our party had such a great night here. The bar / service person with the really long pony tail made our day and visit here soo much fun. Thank you, your a star. Ps, I've not posted the videos.

I came here with friends on a night that the restaurant advertised as Chinese New Year celebration with karaoke and free appetizers. My friends ordered drinks and food before the started time so we wouldn’t get too hungry. The food they ordered was mediocre but the sauces were good. When it came time to karaoke, there was none. The advertised free appetizers was a small portion of tofu skin and one fried tofu dumpling. That was it πŸ˜‚ we got played. The atmosphere is really nice and I hear the drinks were good. Maybe call and verify if you see an advertised event to make sure you get what they say you’re gonna get lol. I’d maybe come here again for the atmosphere. I saw a lot of guys here for the football game
