P’jook House - Harbor Creek

I wanted to try this place because they're the only place in town that I could find Sesame Tofu on the menu. Sadly, they mistreated and abused their tofu- my guess is they dip it in corn starch and deep fry it, which anyone who knows tofu knows will lead to a flavorless already chewed bubblegum texture, instead of pan frying- and then saturate it in a syrupy sweet, completely revolting orange sauce and sprinkle a couple sesame seeds on it. I have put a lot of weird and gross things in my mouth, but if I'm gonna swallow something that gross, they should be paying me, not the other way around, so I spit it out. The vegetable lo mein was oily and flavorless and the crab rangoons were a bit rancid. Unless you're mad at your body for some reason, don't go here!

Food is amazing !! I ordered from Uber eats today and I'm really satisfied. The proportions are AMAZING, a huge tub of soup, 10 dumplings, so many crab Rangoon and a huge container of lo mein. The food is amazing and the presentation was amazing. Nothing leaked and nothing was off. Taste is perfect I'm extremely satisfied.

Commercial Asian food seems very different to me from my memory of years ago. I remember vibrant flavors of garlic and onion. If a dish was labeled spicy, it was spicy. Today flavor seems to come from powder. Dishes seem to lack vibrancy. What I generally see now I describe as food cooked in seawater all broad, dull flavor. I often think that everything was delivered to every restaurant in a bag from one source. With few exceptions I detest franchise food. If I spend my limited money on prepared food I expect someone who cares about food to cook it for me. Peking House seemed to be a bit different. I wasn 't thrilled with much of it but it did all seem to be good, honest flavor. The sauce on the Shrimp with Broccoli was excellent! Except for that sauce, all lacked flavor. There was nothing offensive but it was dull. There was some true flavor with the Vegetable Fried Rice particularly after it melded over night. It needed much more onion and real garlic. Still dull. My main issue with most Asian restaurants is with brocolli. Brocolli is truly a delicate vegetable to cook properly. Even when cooked properly I 'm not so sure that it can stand up to food delivery. What I generally get is mushy flowerettes and tough stems. Perhaps it 's a product quality issue. Cooking for the general public is dicey. This may be particularly true in the US. All restaurant owners cook YOUR food. Make the grade based on your sense of flavors and textures. Don 't hold back and lie to us. I 'd rather fold as a restaurant owner than to serve weakened food according to my standards. If you serve me powerful food and I don 't like the dish, all is well. You gave me flavor! I 'll be back to try another dish.

Food was awesome and really fresh. Took me a minute to arrive for pickup but my food was hot and steamy, even once I made it home !

If you were to walk by you probably wouldn't stop but we're picky about our Chinese and since being in Savannah we've had OK Chinese so far I'd have to tell you this is the best we've had. We had the house special lo mein which was chicken beef and pork and shrimp shrimp fried rice and the chicken beef and shrimp in garlic sauce everything was good definitely will go back we have a few others to try to find our favorite but so far of all the places we've tried this is by far our favorite Chinese food
