Called ahead to confirm and order roast duck combo for the first time Friday after work and successfully got myself a meal
Got there within 5 minutes after calling and my duck’s being sliced fresh!
Flavor’s pretty good, definitely can taste the 盐水鸭 flavor which differs itself from other Peking duck places. I think they just marinate all ducks together. (Update, after taking another look and order, it is Nanjing Roast Duck, explains the salted flavor lol)
Rich white pepper flavored soup with lettuce, chunks of duck and tofu. Salt & pepper meat & bones’s well seasoned, some part can be hardened by frying but most parts are just nicely crispy. Cucumber and green onion’s very fresh.
I basically did 3-4 slices of duck per flour tortilla and by the time I finish my first box of duck, there are no tortillas left. Would suggest get two packs of tortillas at check out. Sauce was some what enough though, 2 were provided.
Definitely a great place for nearby duck enthusiasts!

It's labeled as a Peking duck restaurant, but the way they prepare the duck is kind of like a hybrid of Peking and roast duck. The skin isn't served separately and isn't crisp.
That being said, the taste and the value are still superb. I feel the 3 course duck meal is the best deal. It can feed about 2 hungry guys or up to 4 regular people. Included is a whole duck, duck soup, and fried duck bones (there's still meat on them). The duck itself is very flavorful, and I think they make their own duck sauce (not positive). They give you crepes, spring onions, and cucumber slivers for you to assemble your own little "burritos." The soup is also good, but the surprise hit was the duck bones. They're fried until the meat is crisp and seasoned with dry rub. Ask for extra crispy.
Besides duck, this restaurant has an assortment of traditional cold dishes. You can mix and match items that are at the same price point since it's sold by weight.
Lastly, they accept credit cards!

In general, the store is weird. They asked me if I called them when I got into store(I thought they open to public??? Is it??) The server’s face looked like I have to call in the first place and then I go there to eat. Ok, he let us sit down unwillingly even though I didn’t insist on eating and wanted to leave already. Then, there was no service (no utensils, no water, no menu!). I was embarrassed and confused like an outsider at the whole time. The environment of the store is bad as well. Tables are dirty, and the store is smelly when I got in. I definitely won’t go back.
