Beijing Duck Seafood Restaurant

Center CityChinese, Seafood

Beijing Duck Seafood Restaurant is a Chinatown gem where every duck is roasted in a traditional hanging oven. Chef Wang Zheng brings serious credentials to the spotlight, turning a simple meal into a crispy-skinned ritual. It's not flashy, but it’s unforgettable. At lunch, the menu includes simple bowls of congee—either with pork and thousand-year egg or with fish—both mild, filling, and easy to enjoy.
