“ Tasty food in a lovely space. The service was very fast and attentive. There are many gluten free options(be sure to let your server know you want the GFO) All our food was delicious and the serving size was generous. It’s pricier than your everyday take out, but this restaurant has wonderful quality. Can’t wait to return to Peter Chang’s! ”
“ Great food and service. Came with a group of about 7 people and we ordered 6 entrees. Our favorites were the szechuan fish & double cooked pork belly. Overall, the food quality and quantity were excellent. I can't speak on the authenticity of the cuisine even though my last name might communicate that I am Chinese. Whether the food is authentic or not, it was still very tasty! Service was excellent and the food came out in a very timely manner. Overall, the restaurant was clean, bathrooms as well, and fine atmosphere. Parking is a little sparse. There is street parking in front of the restaurant as well as on adjacent streets nearby. Price is reasonable, most dishes are about 15-25 each. ”
“ Where can I start... service was amazing. It's like everyone there was family. Food, indescribable. And there was so much, with just the right amount of spice. My absolute favorite place for Asian Fusion. ”
“ Best Chinese food in Richmond! I’ve been going to Peter Changs for years on years and I’ve loved every visit! Such a wide range of flavors, and much more authentic options than your average Chinese place. The hot and soup is so delicious, and I also love the Szechuan fish, pork with garlic sauce, mapo tofu, and basil eggplant! Can’t wait to keep trying more and more dishes ”
“ Peter Chang in Scott’s Addition!!! Tonight, my husband and I had our engagement party tasting at Peter Chang In Scott’s addition. I first want to commend the ambience- the restaurant is open layout, clean, and had nice music. Secondly, as soon as I walked into the door, I was greeted by the staff who was expecting me and my husband for the tasting. The staff were excellent, they were constantly there to bring out plates, clean, and bag all of our leftovers. The manager even discussed with us how we could modify each dish and their spice levels to fit the needs of our guests. And lastly, the food was delicious definitely not as Americanized, as I was expecting like all of the other Chinese food restaurants in the Richmond area. Many of these dishes had authentic flavors like Szechuan and umami. All cooked to perfection. Presentation of all the food was excellent! Thanks again!! ”
“ If Peter Chang has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Peter Chang has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Peter Chang has only one fan then that is me. If Peter Chang has no fans, then that means I am no longer on Earth. If the world is against Peter Chang, then I am against the world. ”
“ Food was solid as was the atmosphere! The waiter was super attentive and never missed a beat. Had the tofu stir fryed mixed vegetables, crispy pork and tea smoked duck Would definitely visit again! ”
“ Happy hour specials were a really good value. We got an order of fried pork dumplings for 3, an order of spring rolls for 1.50 and pork belly for 5.00. I wasn't expecting such low prices for such amazing food. I saw that a lot of reviews saying that the service was bad bit we didn't experience any bad service. The waiter was pleasant and service was quick but not rushed. Be careful when ordering anything spicy. The jalapeno beef was at the top of my tolerance level and I tend to like trying the spiciest things on menus. I definitely broke a sweat and would not have been able to enjoy it if it were any spicier. There were about 9 very large entire jalapeno peppers that were cooked into the dish. The mushrooms and peppers combined with the beef and sauce were all perfect. My wife got the golden mountain chicken and it was crispy and sweet (in a good way). I took several bites of her meal to counteract the spicy beef. The dumplings were good but their sauces were some of the best I've had served with dumplings before. The pork belly was a very generous serving considering the price. It was served on a bed of cilantro and hot peppers(if you avoid eating the peppers there was no heat so both myself and my wife were able to enjoy it). We will definitely be back and are both looking forward to try some of the other items that jumped out to us on the menu like the lotus root stuffed with sticky rice and the sausage dishes that Andrew Zimmerman from bizarre foods has raved about. ”
